Send us a textThis podcast started at the CU 2.0 Live event in Arizona a few months ago because that's where a lightbulb went off in David Eldred's head.  Chief experience officer at billion dollar Solarity Credit Union in Washington State, Eldred went to the conference already aware of AI but at the conference he began to see that really, truly he could put AI to work at Solarity in very useful ways.He also learned how, in a matter of short minutes, he could create a very useful custom ChatGPT tool and back at Solarity he got busy doing exactly that.In the show Eldred gives the specifics of what he's doing at Solarity with AI and, admittedly, he is taking small steps. But they are useful steps, time saving steps and they are preparing the way for big leaps in the near future.That's what makes this such an important episode.  You don't need a big budget to get results with AI.  What's needed is a willingness to experiment and a readiness to embrace the new.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

The discussion focuses on the role of economic development agencies, such as RDAs and CDAs, in the development process. RDAs, with state-granted powers, create CRAs to enable tax increment financing, aiming to boost job creation, sales tax, and city beautification. Developers should collaborate with these agencies, securing political and taxing entity support for success. The Salt Lake City RDA is noted for its significant resources, including a loan fund for affordable housing and downtown revitalization. The conversation also highlights the importance of relationships with site selectors, brokers, and developers, as well as using incentives like tax increment financing to attract businesses. Beautification, walkability, and high-quality buildings are emphasized as key factors in development projects.Chapters00:00Introduction and Setting00:38Different Government Agencies Involved in Development01:26Role of the Redevelopment Agency (RDA)04:24Community Reinvestment Areas (CRA) and Project Specifics07:10Utilizing Economic Development Tools for Impediments09:33City Goals: Jobs, Sales Tax, and Beautification10:31Different Economic Development Goals for Each Community13:02Sales Tax as the Main Revenue Generator for Cities14:24Involvement of Taxing Entities for Personal and Real Property Projects19:36Role of the Economic Development Director and Collaboration21:24Approaching Economic Development Agencies and Building Relationships24:06Political Buy-In and Involvement of Taxing Entities30:24Redevelopment Agencies and Low to Moderate Income Housing32:23Funding and Financing Options for Developers33:56Activating Downtown Areas and Reinvesting in Communities34:31Supporting Small Businesses and Economic Development38:38Attracting Businesses and Initiating Conversations39:08Understanding Motivators for Businesses and Developers47:45Incentives for Developers and Aesthetics of Projects49:51Beautification and Walkability in Community Development56:12Other Tools and Incentives for Economic Development

On today's episode of the podcast Jake looks back at the most influential North Carolina DWI cases of the past year. Abstracts of the cases are found below.   CHECKPOINTS   State v. Alvarez, 894 S.E.2d 737, No. 278PA21 (N.C. 2023)   Facts: Rowan County Sheriff's Office set up a checkpoint. The checkpoint was purportedly in response to a high-speed fatality accident that had occurred at that location two days earlier. No officers on scene were checking speeding. Defendant's passenger side wheels came off the road and onto the grass prior to stopping at the checkpoint. One of the officers on scene testified that this behavior led him to believe the Defendant might be driving while impaired.   Procedural History: Both the trial court (superior court) and the Court of Appeals (State v. Alvarez, 860 S.E.2d 45, 2021-NCCOA-375 (2021) (unpublished) found the checkpoint did not have a proper primary programmatic purpose. The Court of Appeals appears to call into question a checkpoint set up for “all chapter 20 violations” as possible general crime control.   Holding: The Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals finding that there was reasonable suspicion to stop the vehicle due to the lane violation but did not address the findings of the Court of Appeals regarding the Constitutionality of the checkpoint. Use the Court of Appeals opinion to attack a checkpoint based on the lack of a proper primary programmatic purpose.   REASONABLE SUSPICION   Sate v. Peak, 892 S.E.2d 925, No. COA23-312 (N.C. App. 2023) (unpublished)   Facts: Stopping officer was highly specialized in DWI investigations. Defendant delayed for 10-seconds at a traffic light after it turned green. There were two open bars within a quarter mile radius of the stop location. Defendant crossed over the yellow lines with both left tires into the opposite lane of travel. Defendant was travelling at one to two miles per hour.   Holding: Reasonable suspicion existed to stop Defendant.   PROBABLE CAUSE   State v. Woolard, 894 S.E.2d 717, No. 208PA22 (N.C. 2023)   Facts: Officer saw Defendant cross centerline six or seven times. Officer active blue lights and Defendant quickly stopped his vehicle. Upon initial approach, Defendant “seemed normal” to the officer. After asking about the driving, Defendant told the officer that there were bees in his truck that he was trying to get out. As they spoke, the officer noticed an odor of alcohol, flushed cheeks, and red and glassy eyes. Defendant seemed coherent to the officer. Defendant admitted to having “a couple beers earlier.” Officer administered two PBTs, but these were excluded from consideration because they were not performed correctly. Officer also administered the HGN test, during which he saw six of six clues. Officer placed Defendant under arrest for DWI.   Procedural History: Defendant was granted a preliminary indication that no PC existed in District Court. The State appealed to Superior Court where the Defendant again prevailed and the case was sent back to District Court for a final order granting suppression. After the District Court entered its final order the State filed a petition for writ of certiorari to the Court of Appeals which was denied. The State then filed a petition for writ of certiorari to the North Carolina Supreme Court which was granted. There was no transcript of District Court proceedings or record on appeal for the Supreme Court to review.   Holding: The Supreme Court found it had discretionary authority to rule on the merits of the case and found probable cause.   EXPERT TESTIMONY   State v. Williams, 891 S.E.2d 499, No. COA22-1015 (N.C. App. 2023) (unpublished).   Holding: It was not error for the trial court to allow a DRE to offer testimony about a DWI investigation that the DRE was not involved in, when the DRE stated that she could not testify (i.e. give an opinion) as to whether the Defendant was impaired.   Practice Tip: This case is from Buncombe County, where the State routinely calls a DRE that has not done a real time DRE evaluation in a particular case to give after-the-fact analysis and opinion at trial. Here's the beef: There is no opinion being offered by investigating officers [State v. Lewis, 2022-NCCOA-887 (2022)] or by the DRE that the Defendant is impaired. Point out that no officer involved in the investigation or brought in as an expert to bolster the State's case can give an opinion of drug impairment.   BREATH TEST   State v. Forney, No. COA23-338 (N.C. App. 2024)   Facts: During chemical breath testing, the officer noticed Defendant had gum in his mouth, and had Defendant spit out the gum between the first and second breath tests, both of which resulted in a .11 BAC. The chemical analyst did not restart the observation period or seek an additional breath test. Both the State and the Defendant had experts testify at trial on whether breath testing might be impacted by foreign objects in the mouth.   Burden of Proof: The Court noted that as the proponent of the breath test evidence in an impaired driving case, the State bears the burden of proving compliance with the “observation period” requirement set out in N.C. Gen. Stat. 20-139.1.   Holding: The provisions of the Department of Health and Human Services requiring an observation period by the chemical analyst were violated in this case and a new fifteen-minute observation period should have occurred after the Defendant spat the gum out of his mouth before taking breath samples. The results of the breath test should have been suppressed, but the Court concluded that in this case the admission of the BAC results was harmless error.   Practice Tip: The Court in dicta noted “the Intoximeter estimates alcohol in the blood (BAC) based on a measurement of alcohol in the breath—a ratio which in reality varies amongst different people—by using a single specific ratio to standardize the testing of all subjects.” If you are using Henry's Law to characterize the breath result as an estimate in a .08+ case, you can read this language to give credence to your argument.   BLOOD DRAW   State v. Burris, 289 N.C. App. 535, 890 S.E.2d 539, No. COA22-408 (2023) (unpublished)   Note: Case is currently pending appeal to the N.C. Supreme Court.   Relevant Facts: Single vehicle accident. Officer found Defendant lying trapped under a steel fence outside of a vehicle that had sustained extensive damage. The Defendant was unresponsive and bleeding excessively. The officer noted that Defendant smelled of alcohol and found beer cans both inside and outside the vehicle. The Defendant was taken to the hospital, still unconscious. The officer obtained a warrantless search of Defendant's blood while Defendant was unconscious.   Holding: Based on Mitchell v. Wisconsin, 588 U.S. ___, 139 S. Ct. 2525 (2019) the Court of Appeals found that exigent circumstances almost always exist to conduct a warrantless blood draw from an unconscious driver. This opinion is at odds with State v. Romano, 369 N.C. 678, 800 S.E.2d 644, No. 199PA16 (2017). Both Romano and Burris were in Buncombe County.   Practice Tip: Use the Court's findings in Romano to craft your explanation as to why exigent circumstances do not exist in your case. Also, look at Judge Tyson's scathing dissent in Burris.   State v. Russell, 891 S.E.2d 502, No. COA22-1059 (2023) (unpublished)   Holding: The Confrontation Clause is not violated where a substitute expert from the SBI testifies (and is subject to cross-examination) using another SBI agent's previously generated report, which otherwise may be inadmissible, in forming an independent expert opinion.   SUFFICIENCY OF EVIDENCE   State v. Burris, 289 N.C. App. 535, 890 S.E.2d 539, No. COA22-408 (2023) (unpublished)   Note: Case is currently pending appeal to the N.C. Supreme Court.   Relevant Facts: Single vehicle accident. Officer found Defendant lying trapped under a steel fence outside of a vehicle that had sustained extensive damage. The Defendant was unresponsive and bleeding excessively. The officer noted that Defendant smelled of alcohol and found beer cans both inside and outside the vehicle. The Defendant was taken to the hospital, still unconscious. The officer determined that the Defendant was the owner of the vehicle and found no evidence of any other occupant.   Holding: The State presented sufficient evidence of driving to survive a motion to dismiss. Moreover, the officer describing the Defendant at trial as “the driver” without personally observing the same was admitted without error due to the Court giving a curative instruction.   Practice Tip: Distinguish the facts of Burris and use State v. Ray, 54 N.C. App. 473, 283 S.E.2d 823 (1981), State v. Eldred, 815 S.E.2d 742, No. COA17-795 (2018), and State v. Kraft, No. COA18-330 (2018) (unpublished) to argue for lack of sufficiency of the evidence in your case.   State v. Jones, 894 S.E.2d 290, No. COA23-254 (2023) (unpublished)   Facts: Defendant admitted to being in a minor traffic accident. During the accident investigation, the investigating officer noticed an odor of alcohol in Defendant's car (where he was sitting), slurred speech, and Defendant admitted to drinking. Defendant blew positive on a PBT, showed six of six clues on HGN, and refused chemical testing after arrest.   Holding: In the light most favorable to the State, the State introduced substantial evidence that could prove Defendant was appreciably impaired and the trial court did not err in denying the Defendant's motion to dismiss at the close of the State's evidence.   PRE-TRIAL RELEASE & KNOLL   Pretrial Integrity Act – This act, in part, limits the authority of a magistrate judge to set conditions of pre-trial release for a person charged with DWI if the offense occurs while the defendant was on pretrial release for another pending proceeding. Only a district court judge has the authority to set the conditions of pretrial release for the first 48 hours following the defendant coming into custody for an alleged DWI offense if the defendant was on pre-trial release at the time of the newly alleged DWI.   Practice Tip: This new release procedure is hard to square with State v. Knoll, 322 N.C. 535, 369 S.E.2d 558 (1988). Consider these concluding statements to the Supreme Court's decision in Knoll: “Each defendant's confinement in jail indeed came during the crucial period in which he could have gathered evidence in his behalf by having friends and family observe him and form opinions as to his condition following arrest. This opportunity to gather evidence and to prepare a case in his own defense was lost to each defendant as a direct result of a lack of information during processing as to numerous important rights and because of the commitment to jail. The lost opportunities, in all three cases, to secure independent proof of sobriety, and the lost chance, in one of the cases, to secure a second test for blood alcohol content constitute prejudice to the defendants in these cases. That the deprivations occurred through the inadvertence rather than the wrongful purpose of the magistrate renders them no less prejudicial.” (emphasis added)   State v. C.K.D., 895 S.E.2d 923, No. COA23-204 (2023) (unpublished)   Note: Case is currently pending appeal to the N.C. Supreme Court.   Facts: Defendant was arrested a registered a .17 BAC. Defendant was transported to the Iredell County Magistrate's Office where the magistrate set a $2,500.00 unsecured bond and detained defendant until he was sober or a sober responsible adult was willing to assume responsibility. The magistrate filled out a detention of impaired driving form and found “by clear and convincing evidence” that Defendant's condition of “BAC .17, Red Glassy Eyes, Slurred Speech, Odor of Alcohol” presented a danger “of physical injury to the defendant or others or damage to property” if he were released. Defendant declined to use a phone to call his wife because he did not want to wake her, or their young children. He also checked the box indicating “I do not wish to contact anyone for the purposes of observing me at the jail or administering an additional chemical analysis.” Defendant asked officers if he could call a cab to take him home and that he had funds to pay for a cab. Defendant testified that he could be home in approximately 25 minutes if he had been allowed to take a cab home. Defendant remained in Iredell County Jail for approximately 11 hours prior to his release. During this time he was checked twice by jail staff and told he would be released when he blew a .00.   Holding: The trial court did not err in dismissing the DWI charge against Defendant based on State v. Knoll, 322 N.C. 535, 369 S.E.2d 558 (1988). “Even if defendant waived his right to have someone observe him at the jail, he did not waive his right to have friends or family observe his condition outside the jail, which is what would have occurred had he been permitted to call a taxi and return home to his wife.”   Note: The Court ruled that the magistrate's findings of “BAC .17, Red Glassy Eyes, Slurred Speech, Odor of Alcohol” were not sufficient to support a conclusion that Defendant was a threat and should not have been released.   PLEA AND SENTENCING   State v. Harper, 894 S.E.2d 798, No. COA23-206 (N.C. App. 2023)   Holding: The trial court erred by failing to arrest judgment on Defendant's conviction for DWI, as it is a lesser-included offense of serious injury by vehicle for which Defendant was also convicted.   State v. Smith, No. COA22-621 (2024) (unpublished)   Procedural Posture: Defendant brought what the Court interpreted as the functional equivalent of a post-sentencing MAR due in part to her attorney not advising her of the collateral consequences on her out-of-state driver's license.   Holding: The Court rejected the Defendant's attempt to analogize her attorney's lack of explanation regarding the collateral consequences of her license to the immigration collateral consequences addressed by Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356, 130 S. Ct. 1473 (2010).   Practice Tip: For any client with an out of state driver's license refer them to an attorney in the client's home state to discuss licensing consequences.

A Faith That Overcomes the World by Eldred C. Marshall IIIAre you a member of a book club whose book you have never read?The Bible is the best-selling book of all time. It adorns coffee tables and church pews. We swear on it in court and politicians take their oaths of office on it, yet few have actually read the Bible in its entirety and even fewer rightly divide and apply it.However, what is most troubling are the ones who say that their beliefs and practices are based upon the eternal truths of the Bible, but nothing can be further from the truth as those beliefs and practices are cultural derivations that are contrary to the God revealed in the Bible.Furthermore, if the Bible is properly interpreted and applied, it is a book of unity and not division for we are all equal before God in creation, we are equal before God in sin, and we are equal before God in salvation.This book has taken some of the most divisive and hotly debated topics of the day and run them through the prism of the Bible. The primary source of this book is the Bible. Therefore, this book is replete in scriptures from the Bible. Please take self-assessments in each chapter to determine if what you believe and practice aligns with the dictates and directives of the scriptures. For those who are unbelievers, please take into serious consideration what the Bible teaches about the person, promise, and power of Christ, not the misrepresentations of the Christ of culture. For those who consider themselves believers, truly honor and worship Him by realigning and recalibrating your beliefs and practices in accordance with the dictates and directives of the scriptures as indicated.Eldred C. Marshall III, a loving husband and father as well as a licensed, ordained, and seminary-trained Southern Baptist minister of the Gospel of Christ, has completed his new book “A Faith That Overcomes the World”: a powerful tool designed to help readers deepen their understanding of modern issues by examining them through the Bible, all while expanding their faith in Christ and knowledge of what the Lord actually says through Holy Scripture.Born and raised in Greenville, Mississippi, author Eldred C. Marshall III has been a follower of the Lord ever since making a public profession of his faith in Christ. He was called by Christ into Gospel ministry, which he accepted, and preached his first sermon in Los Angeles on November 19, 1984. In addition to being a pastor who taught his congregation the Bible in obedience to the call of Christ line upon line and precept upon precept, his tentmaking enterprise was as a public-school educator. For fourteen years, he taught Algebra 1 to eighth graders and was an administrator for eleven years after that. During that tenure, he fought for educational justice for all students. Now retired, Eldred and his wife live in tropical paradise, and he currently teaches a Bible course as an adjunct professor for Christian university's global learning program. He is also active in his church in administrative and spiritual leadership.https://www.amazon.com/Faith-That-Overcomes-World/dp/1637842392/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3VD3DTJB4OS47&keywords=A+Faith+That+Overcomes+the+World&qid=1701435738&s=books&sprefix=artell+smith%2Cstripbooks-intl-ship%2C260&sr=1-1https://eurekaeducationalconsultants.com/faith-community/http://www.KingPagesPress.com

He is the greatest player in Altoona Curve history, and greatest slugger in the history of Class AA baseball -- yes, I've got the numbers to back it up. Brad Eldred is a legend in Altoona, where he had a truly unbelievable 50 RBIs in a single month and belted 30 homers in only 60 games. "Big Country" finished his career with more than 400 home runs, including 251 in the minor leagues and 133 in Japan. But he only hit 15 of those home runs with the Pirates and was never able to make a big impact in the major leagues.
