In late 2024, Israel closed its embassy in Dublin, accusing the Irish government of extreme anti-Israel policies, antisemitic rhetoric, and double standards. Meanwhile, the small Jewish community in Ireland, numbering nearly 3,000, has faced antisemitism in the streets. AJC's Director of International Jewish Affairs, Rabbi Andrew Baker, joins us to discuss his recent meeting with Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin, examples of antisemitic activity in Ireland, including Holocaust inversion and the chilling impact of widespread anti-Israel sentiment on Irish Jews. He also shares insights on Ireland's adoption of the IHRA working definition of antisemitism and the future of Holocaust remembrance in the country. ___ Resources: AJC Directly Addresses Antisemitism and Vilification of Israel in Ireland with the Prime Minister Listen – AJC Podcasts: -The Forgotten Exodus: with Hen Mazzig, Einat Admony, and more. -People of the Pod:  U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff on Gaza Reconstruction, Israeli Security, and the Future of Middle East Diplomacy Why Germany's Antisemitic Far-Right Party is Thriving Instead of Disappearing Follow People of the Pod on your favorite podcast app, and learn more at AJC.org/PeopleofthePod You can reach us at: peopleofthepod@ajc.org If you've appreciated this episode, please be sure to tell your friends, and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. __ Transcript of Conversation with Andrew Baker: Manya Brachear Pashman:   In December, Israel closed its embassy in Dublin, accusing the Irish government of extreme anti-Israel policies, antisemitic rhetoric, and double standards. Meanwhile, the small Jewish community in Ireland, numbering nearly 3000 has faced antisemitism in the streets. With us now to discuss the situation in Ireland, and his meeting with the Irish Prime Minister last week, is AJC's Director of International Jewish Affairs, Rabbi Andrew Baker, who also serves as the personal representative on combating antisemitism in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. Andy, welcome to People of the Pod.  Andrew Baker:   Great to be here, Manya. Manya Brachear Pashman:   This situation did not develop overnight. Can you take our listeners back to the first clues that the relationship between Israel and Ireland was deteriorating? Andrew Baker:   Ireland has a small Jewish community, perhaps about 3000 people. And a significant number of them, maybe upwards toward 1000, also people with Israeli citizenship who moved to Ireland to work there with a number of the social media tech companies based in Ireland. Over the years, and certainly even predating October 7, in Ireland there's been a fairly high degree of anti-Israel animus. It's not dissimilar to what we may find in a number of other northern European countries. They view the political scene in the Middle East through a certain prism that creates and maybe amplifies this form of animus.  But that said, there have also been, I think, issues between this community and government policy, even as it's reflected in ceremonies marking Holocaust remembrance in Ireland. In many cases, the particular focus in that history of what happened to the Jewish people in Europe during World War II, the genocide of the Holocaust. While there may be commemoration events, in principle to market, they've really, in many ways, washed out the Jewish nature of that.  In 2016 I was an invited speaker to the official Holocaust Commemoration Day in Ireland. Almost the entire focus was on the refugees, at the time coming in from North Africa and the Middle East. I was actually the only person who spoke the word antisemitism at that event. You also had an effort through legislation to really separate out Israel, the occupied territories, as they understood it, and the name of this bill that was passed by the legislature was called the Occupied Territories Bill. Which sought to separate Israel, at least the territories commercially from Ireland, but it would have a very onerous impact, frankly, on any anyone, certainly members of the Jewish community, who would choose to visit Israel. If they purchased a kippa in The Old City of Jerusalem, brought it back with them to Ireland, under this law, if it were enacted, they could literally be arrested for that action.  So I think also at the time I made a visit there in 2019 in my OSC role, Israel was preparing to host the Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv, and there was a very public campaign in Ireland to boycott the Eurovision contest. Advertisements calling for this on the side of buses, people in the state media already indicating that they were going to refuse to attend. So you had this sort of environment in Ireland, again, a good number of years before what happened on October 7, which really changed everything throughout Europe. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And now there has been a more moderate government recently elected in Ireland. Prime Minister Micheál Martin was in the United States last week in Washington, DC, and you actually met with him when he was here, correct?  Andrew Baker:   That's correct.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   Did you share some of these concerns? Did you address, for example, the Occupied Territories Bill with him? Andrew Baker:   Yes, we spent a bit over an hour together. I was joined also by Marina Rosenberg from the ADL. Our two organizations met. There were some initial plans that other organizations would also participate, but in the end, it was the two of us. One of the most significant issues that has arisen, it's partly why Israel closed its embassy, was the fact that Ireland has joined with South Africa in the charges brought before the ICJ, the International Court of Justice, accusing Israel of genocide. So our goal at this meeting was to raise a number of these issues, including that, including the status of the Occupied Territories bill.  But also, really to impress on him that the community itself was feeling, sieged, if you will, by these developments. And so we wanted him to understand that the anti-Israel animus, which at times, crosses over to a form of antisemitism, has had a direct impact on the Jews in Ireland.  It also was brought to the fore only this past January at this year's International Holocaust Remembrance event, Michael Higgins, the Irish president, spoke, even though the Jewish community had actually urged that he not be given a platform. He used the opportunity to focus on the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza. And again, by that, drawing an analogy between Israel, between the Jewish experience during the Holocaust and somehow Israel's treatment of Palestinians today. So this, too, was an issue we brought up with the Prime Minister. Manya Brachear Pashman:   But this prime minister has made some overtures to address antisemitism, right? I mean, his administration, for example, just announced it was adopting the working definition. Andrew Baker:   Yes, in fact, several weeks before coming to Washington, the prime minister did announce that Ireland would accept the international Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. And we also have a set of global guidelines that some, I think, over over 30 countries now have adopted, that lay out measures that government should take. So we did, of course, discuss this with the prime minister. He indicated to us that he was in the process of appointing a national coordinator, someone who could sort of oversee the development of national strategy to combat anti semitism. This is a very important step, by the way, it's one that almost all, with only a couple of exceptions, EU Member States, have already done. So. It is good that Ireland is doing this. Of course, it comes quite late to the game in this the IHRA definition is very important, because it offers old and new examples of antisemitism, and to digress only for a moment, this IHRA definition began as the definition endorsed presented by the European monitoring center on racism and xenophobia, already 20 years ago. And in my AJC role at that time, I worked closely with the EUMC in the drafting and the adoption of that definition. And notably, it speaks about antisemitism related to Israel. Frankly, if one had that definition in front of him or her, you would be able to look at some of the actions, even by members of government, and certainly the President's own remarks in January, and say, well, this could constitute a form of antisemitism itself. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And did he address the bill legislation that is so troublesome? Andrew Baker:   Yes, he did. He indicated to us that the Occupied Territories Bill as drafted is probably unconstitutional, since it really concerns international trade and economics. This is the purview of Brussels for all EU member states. So in that regard, they're really not expected or permitted to have their own economic international policy. He also said it was probably unenforceable.  Now I asked him to simply dispel with this bill altogether. That was not something that he could agree to, but he did inform me that it would be, at least for now, off the legislative calendar. So we know there are others in Ireland who are pushing for that law to be redrafted and enacted. So this was somewhat reassuring to be told that no, at least this will not happen this year. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Though he adopted the IRA working definition, I know that he also received some pressure from activists to dispense of that, to not adopt it and to reject it. And he assured them that it was not legally binding.  Was that discouraging to hear? Or did he seem to be willing to implement it in training of law enforcement and education of students?  Andrew Baker:   Look, these are the very elements that we speak of when we speak about employing the IHRA definition. And as you said, it's identified as a non legally binding definition, but it ought to be used to advise, to inform law enforcement, the judiciary, if and when they address incidents of antisemitism. Again, he made the decision to adopt the definition, to accept the global guidelines only, only a few weeks ago, really. So how it will be used to what extent remains to be seen. I have to say we, and my ADL colleague indicated we're certainly prepared to work with the government to offer advice on how these things can be employed. We hope that they'll consider and take up our offer, but at this point, we have to see what happens. Manya Brachear Pashman:   You mentioned that the small Jewish community there is largely Israeli expats doing business. And they were certainly uncomfortable at Holocaust Remembrance event. Are there other examples of harassment or antisemitic behavior, assaults, protests. What are they seeing on a day to day basis? Andrew Baker:   Yes, first, I mean, the majority of the community are not Israelis, but there's a significant number who are. And I think what they're finding is, it's not unique, but it's intensive for them, that in schools, in the workplace, there's a high level of discomfort. And a result of this, where people may have the choice they will try not to identify publicly in some way that would signal to others that they're Jewish. There are incidents. There haven't really been violent attacks but clearly kids in school have been harassed and made to feel uncomfortable. Because they're Jewish because of this sort of strong anti-Israel animus.  There was, only shortly after we had our meeting, an incident in one of the resort towns in Ireland where Israeli tourists in a restaurant were harassed by other patrons. They were cursed. They were spit at. It was the sort of thing, and the local council did issue a kind of apology. But I think it illustrates that when you have such a high level of anti-Israel animus, which at times can be just a harshly critical view of Israel or Israel's government, but it can spill over and create a sense that there is, as we've termed it, a kind of ambient antisemitism. It is sort of in the atmosphere, and so it does have an impact on this small Jewish community. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Last year, Israel recalled its ambassador to Dublin. It closed its embassy in December, but in May, it actually recalled its ambassador, after Ireland announced, along with other countries, Norway, Spain, Slovenia, that it would recognize a Palestinian state. And I'm curious if there's something about Ireland's history that informs this approach? Andrew Baker:   I think that's partly true. Look, first of all, Ireland had a somewhat checkered role, even during the Holocaust. You know, the Irish Ambassador government signed a condolence book when Adolf Hitler died. And it accepted German refugees after the war, but it was really quite reluctant to accept even some small number of Jewish refugees. And I think over time, Ireland in its own fight for independence with Great Britain, maybe drew the same analogy to Palestinians. This notion of being a colonialist subject. Perhaps there are those connections that people make as well.  But in the case with the Israeli ambassador first being withdrawn, and then the embassy closed, unfortunately, much of the normal diplomatic relations that an ambassador wants to do, is expected to do, were really precluded from Israeli Ambassador Erlich. Gatherings of political parties where diplomats as a kind of standard rule, invited to attend, she was not invited. Other events the same was true. So there was also a frustration to be ambassador in what ought to be a friendly country, a fellow democracy, a member of the European Union, and yet to be made a kind of de facto persona non grata was a quite troubling experience. Manya Brachear Pashman:   So whether there was an ambassador or an embassy there didn't seem to matter. They were still being excluded from diplomatic events already. Andrew Baker:   The Israeli government made the decision that they needed to do something dramatic to express the state of affairs and this discomfort, and that was first through recalling the ambassador, but ultimately, As you pointed out, essentially closing the embassy, that's a dramatic step, and some might disagree, particularly if you have Israeli citizens that would otherwise want the services of an embassy in that country, but they believe this was one way of sending a message, and I think it was a message that was received.  I would point out that following our meeting with the Prime Minister, it drew significant attention in the Irish press. Perhaps one of the most prominent read newspapers in Ireland, The Independent, this past Sunday, had an editorial that spoke about our meeting with the Prime Minister and really called on the government to reassess its relationship with Israel. In other words, to try and repair that relationship. So if it leads to that, then I think we will feel it was well worth it. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Going back to the Holocaust Remembrance events that seem to be a continuing issue. Did you speak with the Prime Minister about the Jewish community perhaps having a role in organizing those commemorations from now on? Andrew Baker:   We did. The fact is, there has been a Holocaust Educational Trust organization that had some government support, but it's separate from the Jewish community that has been responsible for organizing these events. As I noted when I was invited in 2016, this was the organization that organized it, but it has sort of fallen out of favor with the Jewish community. There have been internal tensions, and again, as a result of this last event in January, the Jewish community has asked the government to really be given the authority to to organize these events.  I have to point out that it does have, typically, the participation of senior figures in the government. When I was there, the prime minister at the time spoke, and members of the High Court participated, the Mayor of Dublin. So I think that level of participation is important and should continue. But I think the problem we're seeing is that even that history is being instrumentalized, so we need to be certain that doesn't continue. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Andy, a number of Jewish leaders declined to meet with Prime Minister Martin, given the tension and animosity Jews in Ireland have been facing. Why did you meet with him?  Andrew Baker:   AJC values, sees itself as playing an important diplomatic role, not simply with Ireland, but with various countries. And while some other organizations felt in the end, they should not participate, because by not talking to the Irish Prime Minister that was sending a message, our approach is rather quite the opposite. It's important to talk. I'm not sure that it's always the easiest conversations, and the results may not always be all that we would hope them to be, but I want to say we're in this for the long haul. We've been back and forth to Ireland, with other countries, of course, as well over the years. We hope that those visits and these meetings will continue. Frankly, it's only by this kind of ongoing engagement, I believe that we can really make a difference, and that's what we're all about. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Well Andy, thank you so much for joining us.  Andrew Baker:  You're welcome, Manya.

VP of partnerships Nick Kelly on how the brand thinks about Big Game advertising and its strategy for Super Bowl LIX

Steam is cracking down on games that force you to watch in-game ads and/or paywall content behind advertising. Game studios can still put ads in-game on billboards, etc. or do crossovers like Roblox or Fortnite -- but no "mobile style" forced ads. Was this even a thing on PC games? ✨ Shadowbinders Pin Set Campaign - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nydaria/shadowbinders-steampunk-fantasy-hard-enamel-pin-set-series-1

Michael Tsanis, Senior Vice President of Creative at The Martin Group, details what consumers can expect from advertisements while watching the big game.

Hosts: Taylor Morgan and Erin Rider  Ask virtually anyone – election and candidate advertising can get pretty ridiculous, especially during election season. State Representative Sahara Hayes is running a bill that would make changes to political advertising restrictions, specifically on social media. She joins Inside Sources to talk more about it. 

I. Contract Formation A contract requires offer, acceptance, and consideration. Offer: A clear expression of willingness to be bound, creating a reasonable belief that assent will finalize the deal. Advertisements are generally invitations to deal, not offers. Offers can be terminated by revocation, rejection, counteroffer, time lapse, or operation of law. Acceptance: Assent to the offer's terms. Under common law, the acceptance must mirror the offer exactly (mirror image rule). The Mailbox Rule generally makes acceptance effective upon dispatch. Acceptance must be communicated. Consideration: A bargained-for exchange of legal value, where each party gives something up. A preexisting duty is not sufficient consideration. Promissory estoppel can enforce a promise without consideration if there is detrimental reliance. II. Enforceability Defenses Statute of Frauds: Requires certain contracts to be in writing. These include contracts involving marriage, those that cannot be performed within a year, interests in land, promises by executors, sale of goods over $500, and suretyship. Exceptions include partial performance or promissory estoppel. Capacity: Minors, those with mental incapacity, and intoxicated individuals may lack capacity to contract. Contracts with minors are voidable by the minor. Illegality/Public Policy: Contracts to do something illegal or against public policy are void. Misrepresentation/Fraud: False statements can be a defense. Fraud is an intentional falsehood. Duress/Undue Influence: Contracts made under duress or undue influence are voidable. III. Contract Performance and Breach Performance Standards: Conditions: Events that must occur before performance is due. Can be express or implied. Common Law: Requires substantial performance. UCC: Requires perfect tender for the sale of goods. Breach: Material Breach (Common Law): Allows the non-breaching party to terminate the contract and sue for damages. Minor Breach (Common Law): The non-breaching party can seek damages, but must still perform their own obligations. Anticipatory Repudiation: When a party indicates they will not perform. The non-breaching party can treat this as an immediate breach. Installment Contracts (UCC): A breach in one installment only justifies canceling the contract if it substantially impairs the whole contract. Cure Rights (UCC): A seller who delivers non-conforming goods may have the right to correct the issue. IV. Remedies for Breach Monetary Damages: Expectation Damages: Aims to put the non-breaching party in the position they would have been in had the contract been fulfilled. Consequential Damages: Compensation for foreseeable indirect losses. Reliance Damages: Reimburses expenses incurred due to relying on the contract. Restitution: Restores any benefit conferred to the breaching party. UCC Specific Damages: Buyers can 'cover,' and sellers can resell goods to mitigate damages. Equitable Remedies: Specific Performance: Forcing the breaching party to fulfill the contract, usually for unique items. Injunction: Directing a party to do or not do something. Rescission: Cancels the contract, restoring parties to their original state. Reformation: Rewriting a contract to reflect the parties' true intent. V. Third-Party Rights Third-Party Beneficiaries: Intended Beneficiary: Has the right to enforce the contract. Incidental Beneficiary: Does not have the right to enforce the contract. Rights vest when the beneficiary relies on, assents to, or when contract conditions specify. Assignment and Delegation: Assignment: Transfer of contract rights. Delegation: Transfer of contractual duties, which is not allowed when personal skill is required. The delegator often remains liable unless a novation occurs. VI. UCC vs. Common Law Modification: Common law requires new consideration, UCC does not as long as it is in good faith. Firm Offers: UCC firm offers by merchants are irrevocable for a stated time (or up to three months) without consideration

Introduction to Contract Law: Contract law deals with legally binding promises. It establishes which promises are enforceable and how courts will handle breaches of those promises. Understanding contract law is essential in many areas of legal practice. Formation of a Valid Contract: A valid contract generally requires three elements: Offer: An offer is a clear expression of willingness to enter into a bargain, which justifies the other party's belief that their agreement will finalize the deal. It must be definite and certain, and a reasonable person would interpret it as an intent to be bound upon acceptance. Advertisements are generally not considered offers, but invitations to deal, unless they are very specific. Offers can be terminated by revocation, rejection, counteroffer, time lapse or operation of law. Acceptance: Acceptance is the offeree's agreement to the terms of the offer. Under common law, the acceptance must mirror the offer exactly. The Mailbox Rule generally states that acceptance is effective upon dispatch, unless otherwise specified in the offer. Acceptance must be communicated, except in special cases where silent acceptance is justified. Consideration: Consideration is a "bargained-for exchange of legal value". Each party must promise or do something they are not already legally obligated to do. The Preexisting Duty Rule states that performing an existing obligation is not sufficient consideration, with some exceptions. Promissory estoppel can sometimes enforce a promise even without traditional consideration, if one party relies on that promise to their detriment. Enforceability Defenses: Even with offer, acceptance, and consideration, certain defenses can render a contract void or voidable: Statute of Frauds: Certain contracts must be in writing to be enforceable. These include contracts related to: Marriage Year: Contracts that can't be completed within one year Land: Contracts involving the transfer of interest in real property Executors: Promises by an executor to pay a decedent's debt with personal funds Goods: Contracts for the sale of goods over $500 Suretyship: Promises to pay another's debt Capacity: Parties must have legal competence to enter a contract: Minors: Contracts with minors are generally voidable by the minor. Mental Incapacity: Contracts can be void or voidable if a party lacks the mental capacity to understand the transaction. Intoxication: Contracts can be voidable if a party is so intoxicated they can't understand the agreement, and the other party knows it. Illegality and Public Policy: Contracts with illegal subject matter or those that violate public policy are void. Misrepresentation, Fraud, Duress, and Undue Influence: Misrepresentation and Fraud: False statements can be a defense, with fraud being an intentional falsehood. Duress: Contracts formed under threat or pressure are voidable. Economic duress can also apply. Undue Influence: If there is a relationship of trust or dominance, taking advantage of the other party can be undue influence. Putting It All Together: Contract analysis involves a step-by-step approach: identify offer, acceptance, and consideration, then check for defenses. If a contract is valid, it then can be assessed for breach and remedies. Examples and Illustrations: The lecture provides examples to illustrate key concepts: Scenario A shows how a counteroffer terminates the original offer. Scenario B demonstrates how a minor can disaffirm a contract. Scenario C shows how partial performance can create an exception to the Statute of Frauds. Day One Conclusion and Preview: The lecture concludes by summarizing the elements of contract formation and key defenses. Day Two will discuss performance, breach, and remedies.

Advertisements and gorilla marketing have changed with influencer culture. Videos of mothers playing with their children turn out to be advertisements for toys, videos of someone painting a do-it-yourself craft turn out to be an advertisement for cleaning products, and some food influencers go to megastores to condemn product ingredients while simultaneously purchasing another product of equal disgust and supporting the very store that they are condemning. Social media influencers have also been caught quietly promoting corporate products while they trash healthy living. Sometimes it's even linked with controversial statements made by celebrities that don't toe the line of big food. All of this makes sense when we look at how the White House hired influencers to promote corporate products and controversial legislation. Viral videos like the Twizzler revelation show how stupid it all is. The commentator says that according to TikTok if you put the candy in water you will see red dye and sugar, which fuels an Internet conspiracy about ingredients. This is nonsense. It's not according TikTok, it's according to the ingredient list on the bag. You don't need water to see that the candy itself is food coloring and sugar. And furthermore, it's not a conspiracy, because, it's printed on the bag! This nonsense gets pushed to the top of feeds, while legitimate questions, revelations, etc are suppressed.-FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

In today's episode: The new Jaguar ad has seen backlash that claims it's "too woke"-- but we can't know the ad's effectiveness until we see the sales numbers on their new line of cars. For now, it's the most buzz Jaguar has seen in a while. Advertisements tell a specific story. Jaguar's ad is banking on that story resonating with the subset of customers that are likely to buy their cars. A company can't be for everyone; what works for Jaguar won't work for Kia or Audi, and vice versa.

Comprehensive Overview of Contract Law Source: Week One Lecture Series on Contract Law Main Themes: The Importance of Contract Law: Contract law provides the foundational framework for agreements in society, ensuring stability, predictability, and trust. It facilitates economic efficiency, protects expectations, and allocates risk. Sources of Contract Law: Contract law stems from common law, which evolves through judicial precedent, and the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), which standardizes commercial transactions across states. Types of Contracts: Contracts can be classified by formation (express or implied), acceptance (bilateral or unilateral), and enforceability (valid, void, voidable, unenforceable). Essential Elements of a Contract: A legally enforceable contract requires offer, acceptance, consideration, mutual assent, capacity, and legality of purpose. Formation and Interpretation of Contracts: Contract formation relies on the objective theory, focusing on outward expressions of intent. Special situations like advertisements and auctions have specific rules governing offer and acceptance. Termination of Offers: Offers can be terminated through revocation, rejection, counteroffer, lapse of time, or situations like death, incapacity, or illegality. Acceptance and Consideration: Acceptance must be unconditional and communicated. The Mailbox Rule dictates that acceptance is typically effective upon dispatch. Consideration must have legal value and be bargained for, with exceptions like promissory estoppel. Key Ideas and Facts: Definition of a Contract: "A contract, simply put, is a legally enforceable agreement between two or more parties. It represents a set of promises, where the breach of those promises has legal consequences." Purpose of Contract Law: Facilitating Voluntary Agreements: "Contract law provides a structure that allows people to enter agreements freely, trusting that their commitments will be legally upheld." Promoting Economic Efficiency: "By enforcing contracts, the law reduces uncertainties in transactions, allowing individuals and businesses to engage in commerce confidently." Protecting Reasonable Expectations: "Contract law protects the expectations of parties to ensure agreements are fulfilled as intended." Allocating Risk: "Contracts are tools that help allocate risk among the parties involved." Common Law vs. UCC: Common Law: "Characterized by its flexibility, evolving through precedent to meet societal needs, while ensuring consistency through past decisions." UCC: "Its standardization provides consistency across state lines, making commerce easier, and emphasizes fair dealing and reasonable commercial standards." Objective Theory of Contracts: "The Objective Theory of Contracts tells us that intent is determined by outward expressions—words spoken or actions taken—rather than subjective thoughts." Advertisements as Offers: "Advertisements are usually not considered offers but invitations to negotiate unless they include specific terms that make them sufficiently definite to be considered offers." (Case example: Lefkowitz v. Great Minneapolis Surplus Store) Promissory Estoppel: "Exceptions to consideration include promissory estoppel, where a promise is enforced to prevent injustice even without consideration." (Case example: Ricketts v. Scothorn) Quotes: "Contract law is omnipresent in our daily lives, shaping the way individuals, businesses, and governments interact." "Contracts are not just theoretical—they are living documents that have real consequences for people's lives and businesses." Overall: This lecture provides a foundational understanding of contract law, highlighting its significance, sources, various types, and essential elements. It emphasizes the role of intent, special situations affecting contract formation, and principles governing offer, acceptance, and consideration. The inclusion of case examples enhances the practical application of these concepts. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

How can I help you?你好，埃里克。我能帮你什么吗?I'm fixing up our next project team meeting and I just wanted to check some possible dates with you.我正在安排下一个项目小组会议，我只是想和你核对一下可能的日期。Fine.Let me just get my diary. OK. Which dates are you looking at?很好。我去拿我的笔记本。好的。哪个日期比较方便呢？I've spoken to the others and they prefer either the third week of May or the second week of June.我和其他人谈过了，他们五月的第三周或六月的第二周是可以的。Yes,both those weeks are pretty clear at the moment, except for the eleventh of June.好的，除了6月11日，其他时间都可以。Right, I've got that.好的，我记下了。So,where's the meeting taking place this time?这次会议在哪里举行呢？It was going to be in London, but I spoke to Carlos in Mexico City and he suggested Chicago. He thinks it'll be more convenient for most of the team.本来要在伦敦，但我和墨西哥城的卡洛斯谈过，他建议去芝加哥。他认为这对团队的大多数人来说会更方便。He's probably right. It would certainly be much easier for me as well, because I can fly from Toronto. And I'm sure you could find a meeting room somewhere near the airport.他可能是对的。对我来说当然也容易多了，因为我可以从多伦多飞过来。我肯定你能在机场附近找到一个会议室。That's a good idea. I'll check out some hotels in that area and get back to you towards the end of the week.这是一个好主意。我会看一下那个地区的一些酒店，然后在周末之前给你回复。Fine,but I'm not in the office on Friday.好的，但是星期五我不在办公室。OK,I'll call you later in the afternoon on Thursday.好的，我周四下午晚些时候给你打电话。No problem.

I should like to hear what people think about advertising.这很有趣。我想听听人们对广告的看法。What's there to say? We must have advertising, mustn't we?我们一定要做广告，是吗?Why?为什么？Well,we wouldn't know what there was to buy if we didn't have advertisements.如果没有广告，我们就不知道要买什么。Yes,that's true, up to a point. Advertisements provide information that we need. If someone has produced a new article, naturally the seller wants to tell us about it.然而，在某种程度上，这是事实。广告提供我们需要的信息。如果有人生产了一个新物品，卖家自然会告诉我们。Yes,and the advertisements tell us which product is the best.是的，广告告诉我们哪个产品是最好的。Do they? I don't think so. Every manufacturer says that his product is the best,or at least tries to give the impression. Only one can be the best, so the others are misleading, aren't they?他们吗？我不这么想。每个制造商都说他的产品是最好的，或者至少是想给人留下好印象。只有一个是最好的，所以其他的都是误导，不是吗？Well,in a way, I suppose, but we don't have to believe them, do we?嗯，在某种程度上，我想，但我们不一定要相信他们，不是吗?Are you saying that advertisements aren't effective?你是说广告没有效果吗?I don't think that intelligent businessmen would spend millions of dollars on advertising if nobody believes the advertisements, do you?如果没有人相信这些广告，我不认为聪明的商人会在广告上花费数百万美元，你认为呢？Perhaps not, but after all, it's their money that they're spending.也许不是，但毕竟，他们花的是自己的钱。Is it? I think not. The cost of advertising is added to the price of the article.是吗？我认为不是。广告费用是加在商品价格上的。You and I and all the other people who buy the article pay for the advertising.你和我以及所有其他购买这个物品的人都要为广告付费。Well,I suppose we get something for our money-some information.好吧，我想我们的钱可以得到——一些信息。Yes, but don't forget it's often misleading information, and sometimes harmful.是的，但是不要忘记它经常是误导信息，有时是有害的。Harmful?有害的？What about advertisements designed to persuade young people to smoke cigarettes? Wouldn't you say they're harmful?说服年轻人吸烟而设计的广告怎么样？它们不是有害的吗？You've given me a lot to think about. I'm quite looking forward to the debate now!你告诉我的这些信息我需要好好消化一下。我现在不期待辩论了！2008年英语专业四级 对话3So Mr. Brown, this is your bed, and as you can see, there are three other beds in the ward.

I followed the hospital's advice and I've only brought a few belongings with me.是的，护士，我想是的。我听从了医院的建议，只带了几件行李。Good,you can see the reasons why we ask you to do that. The cupboard is really very small.很好，你可以看到我们要求你这么做的原因。这个碗柜真的很小。Yes.Nurse, can you tell me what the visiting hours are?是的。护士，您能告诉我探病时间吗?Yes,of course. They're in the afternoon from 2:30 to 4:30 and in the evening from 7:00 to 8:00. But remember that only two people can see you at the same time.好的，当然。下午2：30到4：30，晚上7：00到8：00。但要记住，一次最多有两个人探病。I see. What other rules are there?我明白了。还有什么规则呢？Yes.We start pretty early. We wake you at 6:00 and breakfast is at 8:00; Lunch is at noon; there's tea at 3:30 and supper is at 6:00.是的。我们起床很早。我们6点叫醒你，8点吃早餐;正午吃午餐;下午三点半有茶，六点钟吃晚餐。Oh,that's very different from what I've been used to. You'd better tell me therest of the rules here.哦，这和我以前的习惯很不一样。你最好告诉我这里的其他规则。Yes.Well, you can see the no smoking sign. We don't allow smoking in the wards, and the same goes for alcohol. However, if you do need to smoke, there are special lounges.是的。嗯，你可以看到禁止吸烟的标志。我们不允许在病房吸烟，也不允许喝酒。然而，如果你确实需要吸烟，有专门的休息室。Oh, I don't smoke, so it doesn't affect me.哦，我不抽烟，所以对我没有什么影响。Good.真好。

You ever notice the adds that play on all the TV apps like TUBI, FREEVEE etc...while you're watching all the old movies "for free"? The pharma propaganda is on another level! Let's talk about the idea that ''we live longer now due to medicine". Do we really? Or is that just some sly marketing to get you to believe that. I understand that there is medicine and tech that is actually life saving. But in the midst of that there's also lots of meds we don't need and have become a highly medicated society due to our fallen nature. Although these apps show free movies, you pay with your mind as they try to incept you. As always, don't forget to spread the fire!

Key Takeaways: How Roku Makes Money: Roku earns its money through commercials, getting a cut when you sign up for services like Netflix through their platform, and by selling information about what you watch to advertisers. Your Streaming Buddy: Roku's like a universal remote for all your streaming apps, making it easy to find and watch your favorite shows and movies in one place. The Cable Box's Smarter Cousin: Remember those old cable boxes? Roku's like that, but way better and more modern. You can access tons of different streaming services instead of just a few channels. Investing for Big Gains: We're looking for companies that could grow really big in the next 10 years, aiming for investments that could potentially increase in value 100 times over. The Challenge Ahead: Roku is doing well, but it needs to figure out how to attract younger people who mostly watch stuff on YouTube.   Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Introduction to Roku's Business Model 0:33 Roku as a Universal Remote for Streaming 1:00 Advertisements as Revenue 1:38 Subscription Fees and Finder's Fees 2:16 Data Collection and Sale 3:20 Analyzing Roku's Market Potential   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- Are the Philadelphia Eagles endorsing Kamala Harris for president? Of course not. However, a series of fake advertisements have popped up across Philadelphia claiming that Harris is the official presidential candidate of the NFL team. 6:30pm- REPALY: Tulsi Gabbard— four-term U.S. Congresswoman and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss recently endorsing Donald Trump and agreeing to help him with preparation for his September 10th debate in Philadelphia, PA against Kamala Harris. Gabbard was also named to the Trump transition team. She explains: “[Trump] needs to surround himself and build this team of people who put the interests of the American people ahead of politics or power...he needs a team of warriors for freedom.” In 2019, Gabbard famously destroyed Harris on the Democrat debate stage. So, what's the key for Trump to turn in a great performance? She tells Rich: “[Trump] knows the issues, he knows her record.” Trump has “an understanding of what kind of tactics and games [Harris] is going to play…she'll be exposed again for the truth about who she really is and how unfit she is to be our president.” Gabbard's new book, “For Love of Country: Leave the Democrat Party Behind,” is available now. 6:45pm- REPLAY: Eric Trump—Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and emphasizes how crucial Pennsylvania is to Donald Trump's election prospects. He explains: “You just have a country that is overall a mess. You have the largest price increases in the history of our nation, nothing is affordable anymore, Rich. I mean, nothing! Gas is three times as expensive as it was when my father was in office. Mortgages are unaffordable…the prices of houses have become unaffordable because of inflation…people can't live! You have zero wage growth in this country.” Trump also predicts that Kamala Harris's corporate tax proposal—specifically on unrealized gains—will “bankrupt every company in the country. You're going to bankrupt Apple.” He continues: “I don't think [Harris's campaign] knows what the hell they're talking about.”

If you've ever browsed through social media, chances are you've come across advertisements that seem to offer pretty good deals. And when you click through, you find yourself on a Chinese marketplace. One of these is Shein, a fashion retail company based in Nanjing, China. The other is Temu, an online marketplace similar to Amazon, but based out of China, and with most of its goods shipped directly from China. These companies are now coming under scrutiny, both in the United States and in the European Union. And as the controversy unfolds, there's a chance policies could affect them in a similar way to the TikTok restrictions. We'll discuss this and more in this episode of Crossroads.

The results led to French President Emmanuel Macron calling for a snap legislative election. Plus, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has stated that there should be a universal ban on fossil fuel advertisements in order to protect “green energy” from criticism. Dr. Coates is the author of: “David's Sling: A History of Democracy in Ten Works of Art.” You can find her book here: https://www.amazon.com/Davids-Sling-History-Democracy-Works/dp/1594037213. 4:30pm- Caroline Sunshine—Deputy Director of Communications for the 2024 Trump Campaign—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a jury in Wilmington, Delaware finding Hunter Biden guilty on three felony charges related to the purchase of a firearm in October of 2018.

Matt nearly gets fired when he suggests it should be changed to “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” by Wham! He played the song yesterday and was endlessly yelled at by both Rich and the audience…
