Caveat Emptor, Genesis 41:1-38
Gene and Chris present Richard Toronto, author of "War over Lemuria: Richard Shaver, Ray Palmer and the Strangest Chapter of 1940s Science Fiction." Toronto, a former newspaper reporter, is a long time student of the Shaver Mystery. We'll also be joined by Geneva Hagen, co-editor of the UFO/occult/counter culture magazine, "Caveat Emptor," and a friend of Shaver's. Both Palmer and Shaver were pioneers not just in science fiction, but helped in encouraging interest in flying saucers in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Indeed, Palmer is sometimes identified as "The Man Who Invented Flying Saucers."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-paracast-the-gold-standard-of-paranormal-radio--6203433/support.

If you're thinking about solar there's something important you should know. It should be obvious, but just in case: there is no such thing as Free Solar. Getting solar — or a battery -- installed on your house is not cheap and certainly not free. These projects are significant construction and electrical improvements. No company will install solar or a battery for free. I guarantee it. The Romans had a term for it: Caveat Emptor. Let The Buyer Beware. Unfortunately, disreputable companies still advertise Free Solar. I see these ads on the internet every day. Many states, including California, have laws against this type of false advertising. Nevertheless, these deceptive sales tactics persist. The U.S. Department of Energy advises people to watch out for “too good to be true” offers. Beware of hard-sell attempts to collect your personal data in exchange for a free solar or battery quote. Make sure the contractor you select has the proper installation and sales licenses. If you find yourself a victim of a Free Solar scam, your best option is to contact your state's Contractor Licensing Board or Consumer Protection Department. Homeowners are even more vulnerable now that electric rates continue to skyrocket. My advice is to be patient, get educated about solar and battery technology, and get references from experienced local installers. These local companies are most likely to design a customized system, install reliable equipment, and provide the necessary service over the lifetime of your system. For more about the persistent and probably painful pretense of Free Solar, please tune into this week's Energy Show, or go to ENERGYSHOW.BIZ.

Alexa King has been a lifelong artist whose passion and talent combined to achieve success from the start of her career. Since early childhood, she became absorbed in drawing, combining her love of horses with a fascination for art. She has always owned horses and ponies so her intimate knowledge of anatomy and understanding of a horse's gait gave her a unique perspective from which to create her sculptures. Her mother's artistic eye and her father's skills in construction provided the spring board for her to pursue her education in art by studying studio art as a painting major at Ball State University in her home town of Muncie, IN. Once she had established skills in creating three dimensional forms, she moved to Scottsdale, AZ where she cast her first bronze. This proved to be the launch pad for her career, which led to solo exhibitions at the Morris Douglas Fine Arts and Phippen O'Brien Gallery in Scottsdale. Her first major commission was to create a series representing the Pony Express for Nelson Rockefeller Collections in New York City. The memorial statue of 2006 Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro, which stands at Churchill Downs, Louisville, KY, is probably her most famous piece and the one of which she is most proud. With so many commissioned pieces now on display around the world her creative impulse is never still; she begins each day with drawing before she sets to work on a sculpture at her home in Verona, Wisconsin.What does Alexa listen to while she's working?Podcasts including The Daily, Terry Gross and currently the audiobook; Caveat Emptor, a secret life of an American forger, Ken Perenyi.Host: Chris StaffordFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramEmail: hollowellstudios@gmail.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4769409/advertisement

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz introduce Fortean researcher Dennis Stamey, someone Gene first met 50 years ago. Dennis became interested in UFOs in 1966 during the worldwide flap of the late 1960s, immersing himself in magazine articles written by John A. Keel. As well he studied the works of Charles Fort, and Gray Barker. Eventually he started churning out a cheap mimeographed newsletter entitled Spacecraft Review and also contributed articles to Gene Steinberg's Caveat Emptor. He also took up a correspondence with Richard Shaver, who often called him an "idiot." By the 1970s, life called and Dennis set his interests in UFOs and the paranormal aside. However, starting in the early 1980s, he began looking up Fortean articles in the N.Y. Times from 1870-1890, growing intrigued with phantom snipers and slashers. His first fact book, "Mysterious Snipers, Slashers, and Animal Rippers: A History of Paranormal Assailants," was co-authored with his children, Jillian and Jesse Stamey.

In this episode, Leighton Sheldon from Vintage Breaks and Just Collect recounts two stories - one about a reprint of a Michael Jordan Rookie and the other about a court case related to an alleged card switch. The key takeaway from both stories is that despite our love for the hobby and the community, dealing with valuable items can come with risks. However, by taking basic precautions, exercising common sense, and trusting your intuition, you can steer clear of most pitfalls. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leightons-loft/message

Are non-negotiable standardized contracts, like those used at car dealerships, contracts of adhesion? On Episode 146 of Business Law 101, I get into adhesion, duress, and caveat emptor (“let the buyer beware”). Thanks for joining me for this episode!

I've also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents.

FDIC Closed Silicon Valley Bank on Friday. How will the play out? Will there be contagion? Should this be Caveat Emptor or should there be a bailout? Who are what caused the run?We discuss this and more.For Immediate ReleaseWASHINGTON – Silicon Valley Bank, Santa Clara, California, was closed today by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect insured depositors, the FDIC created the Deposit Insurance National Bank of Santa Clara (DINB). At the time of closing, the FDIC as receiver immediately transferred to the DINB all insured deposits of Silicon Valley Bank.All insured depositors will have full access to their insured deposits no later than Monday morning, March 13, 2023. The FDIC will pay uninsured depositors an advance dividend within the next week. Uninsured depositors will receive a receivership certificate for the remaining amount of their uninsured funds. As the FDIC sells the assets of Silicon Valley Bank, future dividend payments may be made to uninsured depositors.Silicon Valley Bank had 17 branches in California and Massachusetts. The main office and all branches of Silicon Valley Bank will reopen on Monday, March 13, 2023. The DINB will maintain Silicon Valley Bank's normal business hours. Banking activities will resume no later than Monday, March 13, including on-line banking and other services. Silicon Valley Bank's official checks will continue to clear. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the FDIC may create a DINB to ensure that customers have continued access to their insured funds.As of December 31, 2022, Silicon Valley Bank had approximately $209.0 billion in total assets and about $175.4 billion in total deposits. At the time of closing, the amount of deposits in excess of the insurance limits was undetermined. The amount of uninsured deposits will be determined once the FDIC obtains additional information from the bank and customers.Customers with accounts in excess of $250,000 should contact the FDIC toll–free at 1-866-799-0959.The FDIC as receiver will retain all the assets from Silicon Valley Bank for later disposition. Loan customers should continue to make their payments as usual.Silicon Valley Bank is the first FDIC–insured institution to fail this year. The last FDIC–insured institution to close was Almena State Bank, Almena, Kansas, on October 23, 2020.
In this episode we discuss that selling a house as-is does protect you as a seller in Massachusetts from needing to disclose known material defects. Failure to disclose those items could lead to future lawsuits. Massachusetts is a Caveat Emptor state which means “buyer beware”. When buying a house as-is make sure to take time to do your due diligence ahead of offering. Houses sold as is usually will warrant less offers leading to a lower sale price. This is due to less competition through limited financing options.
An episode so nice we did it twice...er once...definitely only once.
Brain-hurt scale 10/10 - Marketing Mix Modelling or MMM for short is, to paraphrase Zoolander, 'So Hot Right Now'. It seems every day I see another firm pop up with an AI, ML-powered MMM product that claims to be the silver bullet that will fix iOS14's digital attribution void and transport us back to attribution nirvana. But as you'll find out by listening to this episode, Caveat Emptor. In order to make wise choices here, it's important to understand some of the basics of what MMM modelling is all about. What they do, what they don't do. Their strengths and weaknesses. How to set them up. What metrics to use. How to optimize and improve them over time. I found out about Recast and Michael Kaminsky by keeping tabs on Reforge's newsletter and again on personal recommendation by Mike Taylor. This wasn't a planned interview, so excuse the poor quality, but the depth of the conversation will make up for it. And I found it so interesting that I thought I'd share it with you all. I trust this will make you better informed about MMM so you can get the most out of it. Ciao

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:When someone trespasses on property by building or installing something on it without permission, damages can be awarded. The amount of such an award will depend on the circumstances: a)nominal damages if the owner had not proven any actual lossb)actual damages suffered by the owner; orc)damages equal to a sum that should reasonably be paid by the trespasser for the use of the land.In the appeal discussed on the show, a neighbour was building a new home and excavated all the way up to their property line to build a basement. The property line and excavation were very close to the adjacent house, necessitating a fence being installed to prevent people from accidentally falling into the hole.Because the excavation was right to the property line, the fence constituted a trespass onto the adjacent property. It was in place for several months and prevented the neighbours from accessing their backyard from the outside. While a trial judge had awarded $15,000 for the trespass, this was reduced on appeal to $1,000. The small area of land occupied by the fence had no commercial rental value and the neighbour had already been compensated for the nuisance caused, some flowers that died because they couldn't be watered and damage to a retaining wall. Often nominal damages for trespass of this kind will only be $1, but $1,000 was permitted by the judge on appeal. Also, on the show, the doctrine of Caveat Emptor is applied to a claim based on alleged problems with a house.The judge deciding the case referred to a law professor's description of the doctrine: Absent fraud, mistake, or representation, a purchase takes existing property as he finds it, whether it be dilapidated, bug-infested or otherwise uninhabitable or deficient in expected amenities unless he protects himself by contract terms. While real-estate contracts often include a property disclosure statement, these only reference problems known to sellers and don't result in a general warranty with respect to the quality of a property. The plaintiff in the case was described by the judge as a sophisticated real estate investor and a professional engineer who operated a consulting firm specializing in construction defects. His evidence was found by the judge to be unbelievable. This conclusion was, in part, based on the judge's finding that his claim that the home sellers improperly removed a washer and dryer and replaced them with mould-infested appliances was undermined by photographs taken after the sale was completed depicting the washer and dryer still in place. Finally, on the show, a case involving the remedy for a finding that police improperly searched a person's wallet, locating some drugs. In Canada, when police are found to have breached someone's constitutional right to be free from unreasonable search or seizure, a judge then needs to determine what the remedy should be. If a judge concludes that permitting the Crown to use evidence obtained in an unconstitutional way would bring the administration of justice into disrepute, they can exclude the evidence from consideration in a trial. There is also authority for a judge to grant “such remedy as the court considers appropriate and just in the circumstances.” In the case discussed, the accused pleaded guilty after the judge declined to exclude the evidence of the drugs located in the wallet. The judge did, however, take the Charter breach into consideration on sentencing and imposed a conditional discharge rather than a seven-day jail sentence the Crown asked for. Follow this link for links to the cases discussed.

"Caveat Emptor"! This is a Latin term that economists and business experts are familiar with. It means, "Let the buyer beware." If you have ever been suckered into a bad deal or made a bad purchase, you don't need to go to business school... you already understand this principle very well. In Matthew 16, Jesus has a very serious and genuine discussion with His disciples on what it means to be a disciple. It is almost carries a "Buyer Beware" tone to it. To follow Jesus is to share in His sufferings and to share in self-denial, sacrifice and cross-bearing. To follow Jesus is to live in the constant tension of colliding worlds. In this message, Pastor Derek Holmes looks at how, even though the Christ-life offers great promise, it also bears great difficulty. But, there is still no life greater than the disciple life.
