We are on the brink of a new era. The United States' commitment to Taiwan and its people have reached tremendous levels this year. As of November 1, 2012, people from Taiwan are able to visit the United States for up to 90 days without obtaining a visa. The entry of Taiwan into the U.S. Visa Waiver Program will not only tremendously support the National Travel and Tourism Strategy, but also offer more opportunities to do business with each other, which enhances our economic partnership.
The goal of President Obama's National Travel and Tourism Strategy is to attract 100 million visitors to the United States by the end of 2021. Taiwan will help us achieve this goal. During President Ma Ying-jeou's time in office, the United States and Taiwan have made great progress towards our mutual goal of expanded opportunity and prosperity for both our nations. Taiwan has made great strides during the past few years to enhance its border security and travel systems. These efforts led Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to nominate and then approve Taiwan for the Visa Waiver Program.
The Visa Waiver Program will make international travel easier and encourage more visitors to the United States. Some found it frustrating to apply for a visa – from the fees to the long waits for interview appointments during school holidays and summer vacations. So we wanted to facilitate this process, while still being true to our national security goals. The recent decision to grant visa waiver status to travelers from Taiwan will make it easier for local businesspeople to explore opportunities in the United States and increase people-to-people interaction, which enhances our understanding of each other's histories and cultures.
Taiwan is the 22nd largest source of foreign travelers to the United States, with approximately 300,000 travelers coming to the United States per year. These travelers contributed $1 billion per year on travel to the United States. The commencement of the visa waiver program for Taiwan citizens will significantly boost these figures, making this another milestone in our growing bilateral commercial relationship. We look forward to welcoming more visitors from Taiwan throughout the United States.

Hawaiʻi DOE Proposes Budget Cuts, HSTA Responds
on Dec 2, 2020 at 3:06 pm
HAWAIʻI - The Hawaiʻi State Teachers Association says the proposed, deep budget cuts will have "damaging impacts" on schools.
Video by HSTA, livestreamed on December 2, 2020.
(BIVN) – On the even of an important Hawaiʻi Board of Education meeting to approve a COVID-impacted budget for the upcoming fiscal year, the Hawaiʻi State Teachers Association is raising concerns over the "damaging impacts" the spending cuts might have on schools.
"The department of education has cut its budget in order to meet Governor Ige's directive," said HSTA president Corey Rosenlee during a Wednesday news conference. "The two largest proposed cuts are a 10% percent cut to the Weighted Student Formula, and a 9% percent cut to special education."
"The Weighted Student Formula provides every school an annual dollar amount for each student to help cover its operating costs," Rosenlee explained. "The ten percent cut to the Weighted Student Formula and the proposed nine percent reduction to special education gives the impression that we're only trimming the fat, downplaying the severe consequences of these two cuts. Together, these two budget cuts could mean 1,000 special education and regular education teaching positions could be lost. This would impact our keiki. Other programs – such as art, music, Hawaiian studies, Hawaiian language immersion, career and technical education, physical education – all could be reduced or eliminated. class sizes could also increase and we could see programs such as advanced placement, electives, and gifted and talented either be reduced or eliminated."
In its submittal to the Board of Education, the Department of Education outlined its proposed budget cuts:
1.) General fund reductions of 102.5 total Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) consisting of 95.5 permanent positions, 7.0 temporary positions and $164.3 million.
2.) Critical areas to protect:
Safety and security of students, employees, and visitors to our facilities;
New teacher induction program to support new teachers, which will, in turn, promote retention and ensure quality instruction and student support;
Modernization of the Department's systems to allow for seamless operations and a greater focus on our students (i.e. Financial Management System, Longitudinal Education Information system); and
Online learning to provide differentiated web-based educational programming; expand the use and offerings of digital instruction; and create learning opportunities which will allow students to collaborate with students, teachers, and business and industry partners across the State.
3.) Opportunities for consolidation of programs and functions to reduce costs and increase efficiency (e.g. the Office of Strategy, Innovation and Performance is currently reviewing its branch functions to identify programs that can be consolidated). Reassessment of State office work to streamline programs and functions and remove duplicity across the three levels of the Department (e.g. the Office of Curriculum and Instructional Design will streamline its work to focus on the core work around curriculum standard setting).
4.) Review of federally mandated services provided to effectively and efficiently leverage federal funds to maintain essential functions and meet unfunded and underfunded needs while ensuring compliance.
5.) Reassessment of teacher positions in our State offices to identify which positions are essential to state level functions related to teaching and learning.
6.) Redesign of operations such as student transportation and school food service to maximize cost efficiency while improving service to students and families.
7.) Maximize the use of existing Department facilities to reduce office leases in other facilities.
The Hawaiʻi DOE also explained how an additional $100.2 million reduction – at first considered a one time-reduction but later made permanent – figure into the budget. The DOE used this graph:
The Department has four formula-based programs: Weighted Student Formula (WSF) for regular education at schools, SPED Per Pupil Allocation (SPPA) for special education classroom instruction, Indexed Complex Area Allocation (ICAA) for complex areas, and Community School for Adults (CSA) for adult education schools. These student-based, schoollevel programs comprise 73.9% of the Department's FY 2021 general fund budget. In FY 2021, these programs were reduced by $24.2 million as part of the total $100.2 million reduction. Schools and complex areas will see these reductions carried forward as part of the 10% Program Review reductions, resulting in an estimated reduction total of about $121.9 million for FB 2021-2023.
In addition to formula-based programs, school-level funding may be budgeted in State offices and allocated to schools via categorical programs. Examples of such categorical programs include, but are not limited to, Olomana School, Niihau School, Hawaii School for the Deaf and Blind, the Hawaiian Language Immersion Program, Hawaiian Studies, alternative learning programs, athletics, the Early College Program, e-School, and School-Based Behavioral Health. Thus, reductions to state-level office budgets may impact funds that are passed through to provide direct educational support to schools and students.
Schools may be further impacted by the reductions at the State office level. Significant reductions to the Department's budget may impact functions that have been centralized within the State offices for purposes of efficiency and cost-effectiveness, such as utilities, testing, facility maintenance, information technology support and maintenance, fiscal management systems, school food service, safety and security, and student transportation. As such, significant reductions to State offices will also impact school-level funding and operations should schools have to assume the functions that the State offices will no longer be able to sustain.
Each school completes an annual Academic Plan and Financial Plan to determine staffing and other resource needs. Further insight into how the reductions will impact schools will be available once schools complete their SY 2021-2022 staffing financial plans at the end of December.
The Hawaiʻi DOE also listed these "unknown factors" that it says "may significantly influence the Department's final proposed" Fiscal Biennium 2021-2023 budget:
At the Governor's level, there are negotiations regarding employee furloughs. However, no decision has yet been made.
In January and March 2021, the Council on Revenues will report the latest revenue forecast to the Governor and Legislature to revisit State revenue projections. The outcome of these meetings will inform the Department and other decision-makers whether more severe reductions may be considered over the legislative session.
The Legislature will monitor the State's economic conditions and carefully review and evaluate the Department's budget reductions throughout the 2021 legislative session. Changes that will impact the Department's budget are anticipated throughout the legislative process.
The timing, form, and level of additional federal assistance to address unanticipated costs and economic fallout related to COVID-19 remains uncertain at this time. When additional federal funding is received, it is possible that funding could offset some of the reductions; however, the Department will prudently continue to look for additional options to balance the fund.
The Hawaiʻi Board of Education Finance and Infrastructure Committee will be discussing the operating budget during its meeting on Thursday, December 3. The virtual meeting will take place at 11 a.m.

I've had a chance to reflect on Accela Engage 2013 and wanted to share a few key takeaways. It was my first year attending the conference, and I was delighted by the energy and level of active participation throughout the week. Over 450 customers representing more than 100 agencies around the world made it a priority to attend to learn about our strategy and plans, to network and to learn.
First, a quick synopsis for those of you who were not able to attend this year. Our CEO, Maury Blackman, opened his keynote by showcasing the power of engagement between government agencies, citizens and businesses. Engagement was a common theme throughout the week, and is the reason we renamed our user conference Accela Engage this year.
Accela CEO Maury Blackman delivers the keynote address at Accela Engage: 2013 User Conference.
Social Media: With the ubiquitous nature of mobile and social, we're seeing an increase in citizen desire to actively participate in the process of governing and creating legislation. Social media is undeniably an important part of the conversation. There are nearly 850 million active users on Facebook, and an average of 175 million tweets are sent every day.
Mobile: Smartphone penetration continues to have about a 31% growth rate globally with about 58% penetration in the United States. People browsing the internet from their phone surpassed PC web usage this year. We're also seeing the rise of the tablet. This year, three times the number of tablets were shipped versus iPhones.
Cloud: Cloud-based models are now mainstream and cloud-first is taking hold in government agencies. Maury shared how the company is innovating with the Civic Cloud to address the needs of government agencies of all sizes and the citizens they serve.
Analytics: Analytics will drive innovation, and in order to get to it agencies need to embrace the open data movement. First, agencies must decide which data to extract from their systems and make available to their citizens, partners and the developer community.
Our vision is to best use mobile, social, cloud and analytics to help government agencies become more productive and better engage with their constituencies. We realize that as citizens expect more access to services, data and their elected officials, engagement becomes equally important. Today, government needs to help citizens engage in two-way dialogue whenever and wherever and on whatever device they are most comfortable with. Much of that dialogue begins when agencies share civic data, and there's no doubt about it: the open data movement is gathering steam. In fact, according to Data.gov, 42 cities and counties in 39 states in the U.S. have already jumped in. Now is the time to think about opening up your datasets, which types of data to make available, and how to package and standardize that data. Kris Trujillo previewed our plans to make it easy to create and manage open data with upcoming capabilities planned for the Civic Cloud. These datasets will amplify your efforts in interesting and sometimes unexpected ways by enabling developers and partners to build innovative apps that meet the needs of multiple agencies. A great example of this is the Garbage App that CityGovApp collaborated on with the City of El Paso that increases driver productivity while enhancing citizen engagement.
We also made some important announcements at Accela Engage. First, we launched Accela Automation 7.3, which incorporates enhanced communications and search capabilities, productivity tools and streamlined processes related to Asset Management, Reporting and Electronic Document review. For a deeper understanding of the new features of Accela Automation 7.3, I invite you to join us for an upcoming webinar on Wednesday, September 18.
Accela was also pleased to honor five agencies with our Accela Engage Customer Awards in the categories of Mobility, Mapping, Trendsetter, Customer Service and One-Stop Shop. Find out what set these agencies apart here.
If you missed Accela Engage this year, you can view Maury's keynote, product demos, our open data panel with Tumml, Palo Alto and Code for America, and the Civic Cloud and Civic Platform panel I moderated with Granicus, Buildingeye and SeeClickFix on our website.
I enjoyed moderating the Civic Cloud and Civic Platform panel with Tom Spengler of Granicus, Ciaran Gilsenan of Buildingeye, Ben Berkowitz of SeeClickFix and Jerald Lo of Accela.
GovGirl also covered the conference and produced a fun wrap-up video of the event that includes what superpower attendees would want to have if they were a government superhero. You can watch the video here.
As I hope you can tell, Accela Engage: 2013 was a great success and we hope that you will continue to engage with us throughout the year. Follow Accela here on our blog as well as on Facebook and Twitter, and please share your thoughts and comments. I appreciated the opportunity to meet and learn from many of you, and I definitely look forward to seeing you at Accela Engage: 2014!


If you didn't know, we've created our career and leadership materials with a college and millennial audience in mind. Many young people aren't so fortunate to have professional mentors, to coach them in a particular field of interest, and rely solely on teachers and advisors.
Our books give students access to interviews from professionals at the top of their career, who want to help young people on their path to success, providing recommended resources, tips, and information that will help students decide if a career in medicine, journalism, or education (business and law are soon to come) is right for them. When a teacher or advisor provides students access to the Outlier Series, they are opening a door to virtual mentorship and additional career guidance.
To take advantage of a group discount, simply email your course catalogue class link, class size, and syllabus to chale@ingredientsofoutliers, who will provide you with a unique coupon code. To qualify, the books can be purchased by the school in bulk, or by the students individually when proof is shown that the class meets a certain size.

Poul Nørlund (4. november 1888 i Slagelse – 26. maj 1951 i Hellebæk) var en dansk historiker, kultur- og kunsthistoriker, arkæolog og museumsmand. Han var gift med Nanna Nørlund (født Møller) med hvem han fik sønnerne Ib Nørlund og Niels Nørlund og datteren Inge (gift Gosney).

Baggrund

Nørlund startede sin karriere med en studentereksamen fra Sorø Akademi i 1906, og han fortsatte studierne med at læse historie på Københavns Universitet, hvor han tidligt blev interesseret i sociale forhold og samfundenes udvikling, hvilket efter en bestået magisterkonferens i 1912 førte til en doktorgrad i 1920 om Det romerske slavesamfund under afvikling, en analyse af underklassens retskår i oldtidens slutning. Det var hans mening at forfølge spørgsmålet videre i de germanske samfund, men 1. verdenskrig satte en stopper for de nødvendige studier i udlandet.

Nørlunds egenskaber som lovende forsker blev tidligt bemærket, og allerede i 1911 blev han, som den eneste studerende, medstifter af "Det Danske Sprog- og Litteraturselskab", der stod for at udgive gamle, sproghistoriske interessante skrifter. Fra 1919 blev han endvidere medlem af "Selskabet til Udgivelse af Kilder til dansk Historie", hvor han især arbejdede for udgivelsen af middelalderlige regnskaber.

Karriere
I 1912 blev han knyttet til den historiske afdeling på Nationalmuseet, og fra 1917 fik han fast ansættelse som underinspektør, hvilket han dog mest tog imod for at få et eksistensgrundlag for sit fortsatte videnskabelige arbejde, selv om hans interesser lå på helt andre områder. En studierejse til Wien i 1913-14 havde dog åbnet hans øjne for kunsthistorien, og han vendte efterhånden sin forskning mod den middelalderlige kunst- og kulturhistorie.

Nørlunds arkæologiske gerninger startede med at han under sit arbejde på museet stødte på nogle tøjstumper, der flere gange i løbet af 1800-tallet var blevet indsendt fra den gamle nordbokirkegård ved Ikigait, sagaernes Herjolfsnæs i det sydligste Grønland. Han indså nødvendigheden af en moderne planmæssig udgravning på stedet, og blev i 1921 på eget initiativ udsendt af Nationalmuseet og af kommissionen for de videnskabelige undersøgelser i Grønland, og fik fremdraget de gamle nordboer og deres dragter, som var benyttet som ligsvøb, og som i dag udgør hovedparten af de bevarede dagligdags middelalderdragter, der findes i Europa. Udgravningerne viste endvidere, at nordboerne havde levet i Grønland op i det 15. århundrede, hvor bosættelserne blev endeligt affolket. Nørlund foretog yderligere tre ekspeditioner til Grønland, hvor han blandt andet foretog udgravninger på det gamle bispesæde Gardar (1926), samt Erik den Rødes gård Brattahlid (1932).

I 1928-29 deltog Nørlund i udgravningerne af massegraven efter slaget ved Visby på Gotland den 27. juli 1361, hvorved han, sammenholdt med sin indsats på Grønland, opnåede et ry som en god udgraver, og blev optaget i diverse nordiske videnskabelige selskaber.

Hans historiske hovedinteresse lå i det middelalderlige Danmark og især hans hjemstavn i Midtsjælland, hvilket muligvis var medvirkende til, at han i 1934-42 fortsatte gravevirksomheden ved voldstedet Trelleborg, og erkendte den meget fint strukturerede bebyggelse, som havde eksisteret inden for voldene på dette anlæg fra sidste halvdel af det 10. århundrede.

Inden for kunsthistorien kastede han sig især over den ældre middelalderlige kunst, og udgav bøger om de gyldne altre og de romanske kalkmalerier, hvor det lykkedes ham at påvise forskellige skoler inden for kalkmalerierne.

Frem til at han i 1938 overtog posten som direktør for Nationalmuseet fungerede han som højre hånd for sin forgænger, Mouritz Mackeprang og var som sådan blandt andet en væsentlig drivkraft bag etablering af nationalmuseets tidsskriftsserie Fra Nationalmuseets Arbejdsmark, der første gang udkom i 1928. Han var endvidere med til at opstille nationalmuseets historiske mindesmærker efter, at museet var blevet udvidet i perioden fra 1929-36, hvilket var resultatet af en landsindsamling i 1925, som Nørlund også var med til at styre.

Som direktør for Nationalmuseet ønskede han at gøre museet kendt og udnyttet blandt befolkningen, og især ungdommen skulle drage nytte af museet, hvorfor han udgav en række lærebøger til folkeskolen og vejledninger til museet, samt gav gratis omvisninger og foredrag, hvilket også fremmede populariseringen af museet, som han fortsatte som direktør for frem til sin død i 1951.

Tillidshverv og æresbevisninger

Han var Kommandør af 1. grad af Dannebrog, medlem af Kommissionen for de videnskabelige Undersøgelser i Grønland 1926, korresponderende medlem af Vetenskaps-Societeten i Lund 1924 og af Knngl. Vitterhets Akademien i Stockholm 1930, medlem af Videnskabernes Selskab, af Det kongelige danske Selskab for Fædrelandets Historie 1930 og af det norske Videnskapsakademi i Oslo 1938, medlem af Acta Archaeologicas redaktion, af Kommissionen for Den Arna-magnæanske Stiftelse, af Foreningen Nordens styrelse, af Stednavneudvalget, af Frihedsfondens bestyrelse og af bestyrelsen for Fondet for dansk-norsk Samarbejde 1946, Undervisningsministeriets delegerede i bestyrelsen for Kunstindustrimuseet 1947, formand for Det særlige Bygningssyn, Det særlige Kirkesyn, for Dansk historisk Fællesforening 1941 og for Danske Museers Fællesråd 1948, æresdoktor ved Oslo Universitet 1938, æresmedlem af Svenska Fornminnesforeningen, Norske Forening for Fortidsminnesmerkers Bevaring, Islenska Fornleifafélag og Society of Antiquaries of London.

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Find your pace. Trying to do too much too quickly will only wear you down. Allow yourself a breather now and then. If a particular problem has you stumped, someone will be more than willing to offer a helping hand.
TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Don't let harsh feelings fester. Put past differences aside and employ generosity and tolerance to quell potential disputes before they arise. Be discriminating and use your good taste when making purchases.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Give yourself a treat. Take a walk in the park, bask in the summer sun, or spend a little money on a shiny new bauble. Later in the evening, you may find that someone wants to treat you like a king or queen.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Busy bees make the most honey. If you want to get anything done, you may have to do it yourself. Take an aggressive approach when trying to have things your way, but don't push it too far.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get by with a little help from your friends. Those in your inner circle will be more than happy to stand behind you if you need support or assistance. This is an excellent time to draw up plans that require the cooperation of the group.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Those in glass houses should not throw stones. Avoid being too critical of someone's shortcomings; offering a helping hand can make things run more smoothly. Avoid signing your name on the dotted line.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): Go with the flow. You can avoid friction by following popular opinion and not making an issue of something you're not really passionate about. Others may be less willing than usual to indulge whims and grant favors.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Tag along for the ride. Following someone else's lead could lead to a chance encounter that could have positive effects on your piggy bank. When someone asks a favor, seek an added incentive.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Make your move. Now is the time to take action if you've set things up logically. Put business plans in motion, ask someone on a date, or enter into an agreement. You can rely on others to come through on promises.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Let your hair down a little. Being a bit informal and chatty during business meetings could open up new avenues of financial gain. Don't be afraid to stand your ground if push comes to shove, as your back is well covered.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Get your money's worth. Stand your ground during negotiations and don't let anyone push you into unfair agreements. Seeking a fresh perspective from a friend or loved one could help you see a situation more clearly.
PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Share the wealth. Don't keep all the glory to yourself. Be sure to give credit to those who helped you along the way. When shopping, select quality items rather than settling for less expensive but inferior bargains.

It's finally here! "Morning Clover" is the first track from our upcoming album, and we couldn't be happier to share it with you. It was recorded at The Bathouse Studio in Bath, ON, produced and mixed by Scottish producer Tony Doogan (Belle & Sebastian, Wintersleep, The Mountain Goats).
The time and effort we put into this song, and into the upcoming record, surpasses just about all our previous pursuits combined - and we think it sounds all the better for it. Let us know what you think! Don't forget to share and comment on social media.


One thing that has astounded me time and again is the number of people in Nairobi that make their commute by foot. Everywhere, all day, you can see hundreds of people on any given street moving to and from work or running errands. Sidewalks are nearly non-existant and most are just dirt/mud with some grass in the area. Rains don't help. One thing you never see…people running for exercise…unless they're training for the Olympics. I got some weird looks as I went out for a quick run yesterday to do some shopping.


Germanized or Americanized spelling of Polish Kozlów (see Kozlow) or of a Sorbian cognate. Jewish (eastern Ashkenazic): habitational name from a place called Kozlovo or Kozly in eastern Galicia, now in Belarus (German name Kossow, Polish Kozlów), named with koziol 'he-goat'.
Where is the Koslow family from?
You can see how Koslow families moved over time by selecting different census years. The Koslow family name was found in the USA in 1920. In 1920 there were 19 Koslow families living in New York. This was about 35% of all the recorded Koslow's in the USA. New York had the highest population of Koslow families in 1920.
Use census records and voter lists to see where families with the Koslow surname lived. Within census records, you can often find information like name of household members, ages, birthplaces, residences, and occupations.
What did your Koslow ancestors do for a living?
Census records can tell you a lot of little known facts about your Koslow ancestors, such as occupation. Occupation can tell you about your ancestor's social and economic status.
What Koslow family records will you find?
There are 3,000 census records available for the last name Koslow. Like a window into their day-to-day life, Koslow census records can tell you where and how your ancestors worked, their level of education, veteran status, and more.
There are 642 immigration records available for the last name Koslow. Passenger lists are your ticket to knowing when your ancestors arrived in the USA, and how they made the journey - from the ship name to ports of arrival and departure.
There are 1,000 military records available for the last name Koslow. For the veterans among your Koslow ancestors, military collections provide insights into where and when they served, and even physical descriptions.
You've only scratched the surface of Koslow family history.
What is the average Koslow lifespan?
Between 1952 and 2004, in the United States, Koslow life expectancy was at its lowest point in 1952, and highest in 1999. The average life expectancy for Koslow in 1952 was 44, and 74 in 2004.
An unusually short lifespan might indicate that your Koslow ancestors lived in harsh conditions. A short lifespan might also indicate health problems that were once prevalent in your family. The SSDI is a searchable database of more than 70 million names. You can find birthdates, death dates, addresses and more.

Man injured after cherry-picker falls over on a naval ship docked in Henderson
Posted by Safety News Team | May 2, 2006 | Workplace Safety | 0 |
A MAN has been rushed to hospital after being injured when a cherry-picker fell on a naval ship docked at Henderson, in Perth's far southern suburbs.
Emergency services personnel were called to the Australian Marine Complex in Quill Way just after 10am amid reports a man was trapped under the cherry-picker aboard the Royal Australian Navy ship, HMAS Warramunga.
The man has suffered a leg injury and has been taken to Fremantle Hospital for treatment.
It is believed the ship had been undergoing maintenance or refurbishment at the Tenix Defence Pty Ltd site, but it is not clear how the accident happened.
An inquiry will be conducted by Comcare, the Commonwealth agency that investigates workplace accidents, which manages incidents that happen on federally controlled land.
Comment has been sought from Comcare.

Q: Is there any syntax to shorten setting variables on object in new C# Im curious if there is any way to shorten this code, or make it in one line / statement,
        var terraformProcess = new Process();
        terraformProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "terraform";
        terraformProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
        terraformProcess.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = Path.Combine(repoPath,"terraform");
        Console.WriteLine(terraformProcess.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory);
        terraformProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
        terraformProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "init";
        terraformProcess.Start();
        terraformProcess.WaitForExit();

        terraformProcess.StartInfo.Arguments =
            $"destroy --var-file=current.tfvars -auto-approve -var vcd_user={_terraformConf.vdcUsername} -var vcd_pass={CryptoServices.Decode(_terraformConf.encryptedVdcPass)} -no-color";
        terraformProcess.Start();
        var output = terraformProcess.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
        terraformProcess.WaitForExit();

Ive tried:
var startInfo = new StartInfo {
FileName = "terraform",
WorkingDirectory = Path.Combine(repoPath,"terraform");
RedirectStandardOutput = true;
Arguments = "init";
};

then assigning it to Process.StartInfo, but it looks like there is only getter on Process.StartInfo.
Im just curious if there is a shorter way of doing that, without repeating so many lines.

A: You can use object initializer syntax on multiple levels, i.e
var terraformProcess = new Process
{
    StartInfo =
    {
        FileName = "terraform",
        UseShellExecute = true,
        // etc ...
    }
};

You can read up more on object and collection initializers here, it's an incredibly handy piece syntactic sugar

A: I would tend to do it like this:
var terraformProcess = Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo("terraform", "init")
                                     {
                                         UseShellExecute = false,
                                         // ...
                                     });

That will alleviate the need for the separate Start call. That line could be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Sorry in advance if this question has been asked already, I just can't seem to find anything online that I can understand.
My experience with VBA is limited to its applications with excel. At the moment, every time I save my spreadsheet at work, it will automatically send that saved file to my email address. This happens multiple times a day and I can't keep moving the emails into a subfolder. How can I automate Outlook so it checks incoming emails for the the sender (in this case it will be me) and then for the subject (I sometimes send my self reminder emails so I need to be able to filter them), then if it matches the criterea, move that email into a sub folder.
In addition to this, the spreadsheet file is about 5mb and it quickly eats into my allowable space in outlook. Is there a way that Outlook can check to see how many emails are in a sub folder, and if it meets a criteria it will automatically delete the oldest email? Specifically, i only want to keep the last 5 revisions in my emails so every time a new one comes in, it will delete the oldest one.
**Just a quick edit, I do not have a coding background at all and everything I know about excel has been learned through reading online guides extensively. I see a lot of code for Outlook and it is all foreign to me, if you could please explain what is happening in the code with comments that would be so greatly appreciated! Thanks again!
This should work for you - Use a Rule to delete older messages as new ones arrive - well, it's close. It handles the deleting old mail part so you only have one copy, but you could tweak it to delete mail older than a specific age.
Another option is an itemadd macro - a rule could move the messages and itemadd watches the folder for new items then deletes old ones.
See one error right off - its looking in the inbox, not the subfolder.
this changes the objinbox object to the subfolder.
Outlook 2010 Emails sorted by conversation including replies and categorized by color.
Macro to periodically sort emails by flag status?


Invisalign treatment is designed to straighten your teeth through the use of a series of clear, custom-made aligner trays that are worn over your teeth. The aligner trays align your teeth through gentle pressure. As your teeth gradually straighten, you'll receive a new set of aligner trays every two weeks.
The average Invisalign cost is in a similar range as traditional metal braces. During your appointment, our experienced dentists can provide information about your expected costs, which can vary depending on how long you require treatment and how extensive your alignment issues are. Flexible financing and affordable payment plans may also be available. Contact our office for more information.
Treatment time is based on the amount of straightening your teeth require, but the average Invisalign treatment time ranges from 12-18 months for adults. Treatment time for teens varies. We recommend wearing Invisalign retainers to maintain your results after completing treatment.
Are Invisalign Dentists Specially Trained?
A licensed orthodontist or general dentist who has received specialized training in the Invisalign aligner tray system can provide treatment. These experienced Invisalign dentists have the training and experience required to help you achieve a straighter smile.
One of the main benefits of Invisalign is that the trays are nearly invisible. When treating mild-to-moderate orthodontic problems, Invisalign and traditional braces are effective treatment options. For more complex cases or when an extensive correction is needed, traditional braces are the most ideal treatment. Our dentists can help you make a decision between Invisalign vs braces. Call our office today to make an appointment.
Are There Advantages of Invisalign?
Enjoy your favorite food and drinks with no restrictions.
You'll only need to visit our dental office every four to six weeks.
The aligner trays can be removed at any time.
Many patients have straightened their teeth with Invisalign; however, the clear aligner trays are not for everyone. Patients with severe spacing, crowding, or bite problems may not be good candidates for Invisalign. In addition, children aren't ideal candidates for Invisalign since their mouths are still developing. Call our office today and let our experienced Invisalign dentists help you determine if you can benefit from Invisalign.
How Expensive Is Invisalign with Insurance?
Most insurance plans offer coverage for Invisalign cost just as they would for traditional metal braces. For more information about your Invisalign insurance, contact your insurance provider or our dental office about any questions you have.
When you get Invisalign in Sarasota, you might be surprised at how easily treatment fits into your lifestyle. Since you remove the aligners every time you eat, you don't have to eliminate any of your favorite food or drinks from your diet. If you smoke or chew tobacco, it may discolor the trays, and chewing gum is also not recommended when you're wearing the aligners. When you clean the trays, you can use the cleaning system available at our office, or you can brush the aligner trays with toothpaste and rinse them with warm water. We recommend wearing the aligners for 20-22 hours every day.

Spinnakers to Barnard Park
Victoria West Walk #3 (as revised at Jan. 18, 2004) A one-way walk starting at Spinnakers' Brew Pub and ending at the border with Esquimalt just west of Barnard Park. West Song Walkway – Mary – Russell – Rainbow Park – Robert – Seaforth – Maitland – West Song Walkway again – Barnard Park. Start at Spinnakers' Brew Pub. In the nineteenth century, there were native fishing shacks where the Pub now stands. Spinnakers opened in 1984 in a refurbished and enlarged house built in 1918. The Pub is next to Lime Bay, where a lime kiln once operated to provide construction materials for the growing city. Lime Bay once extended almost to the Esquimalt & Nanaimo Railway tracks but was partially filled in in the 1950's. The name West Song Walkway is derived from "Songhees," the native band who lived here from 1850 to 1911, and "West Bay," where the walkway ends. Follow the walkway west to Mary Street, and turn up Mary. At the foot of the street a powder magazine was established in the late 1800's. Number 211 Mary Street was the home of Elizabeth Bland and her husband. Her parents headed a wealthy family that owned Halfway House, an inn midway between Fort Victoria and Esquimalt Harbor. Halfway House was where the camels were quartered that were tested as beasts of burden in the Cariboo during gold rush days, 1858-1861. Across the street, at 222 Mary, is an attractive brick house built in 1890 by a Mr. Wilkinson, eldest son of the Anglican Bishop of Northern and Central Europe. The house was built of local brick. It has been restored, and the surrounding townhouses built to harmonize with it are one of Victoria's better examples of preserving the old while building new. Farther up Mary Street on the left is Ormond's Biscuit Factory. Originally it made crackers and biscuits, but then bread was added to the product list, and by 1901 the factory was baking 40,000 loaves a month. The factory was ahead of its time in making deliveries. Delivery customers included the Work Point Barracks, enabling Ormond's to call themselves, "Bakers to Her Majesty's Troops." A polar expedition bought pilot biscuits here, and dog biscuits for their huskies. Though not officially designated, the factory is one of the few remaining industrial heritage buildings in Victoria. Go up to the railway tracks and turn left to get to Russell Street. The tracks belong to the Esquimalt & Nanaimo Railway, constructed by James Dunsmuir to bring coal from his mid-Island mines to Esquimalt Harbor. In 1886 the line was extended to Russell Station, and later to its present downtown terminus at Store Street. Robert John Russell arrived in 1853 on the Norman Morison. As an employee of the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company (PSAC), he bought land at 1 pound an acre and later sold parcels in what he called the Springfield Estate. Land prices rose during the Fraser River and Cariboo gold rushes but collapsed in 1864 when the gold boom proved short-lived. Speculators were left with land inventories that could not be sold until the economy improved. At the foot of Russell Street and extending to Robert Street is Rainbow Park. The Canadian Navy was established in 1910. Its first ship was HMCS Rainbow, built in England in 1891 and sailed from Portsmouth around Cape Horn to Victoria. The Rainbow was scrapped in Seattle in 1920. A rowing club was built here for the James Bay Athletic Association (JBAA) in 1938, and the building later became the home of the Rainbow Sea Cadets. A pillar from the old building is still visible in the rocks at the water's edge. Modern-day Rainbow Estates were built here after the old JBAA building was torn down. Continue to Robert Street. At the end of the street is Coffin Island, a First Nations burial site. The east side of Robert Street was owned by the Muirheads; the west side, by the McBeaths. Number 223 Robert was the family home of James Muirhead, Jr., whose father owned a sawmill downtown close to Capitol Iron. The house was designed by Thomas Hooper. Restored by the present owner, it has the distinction of being the only privately-owned house in British Columbia designated a National Historic Site. Across the street, at number 230 Robert, is another Thomas Hooper design. Among its interesting features is a bay window angled to gain a water view. The view is now obscured by trees. The house was built for Duncan and Ursula McBeath, but Ursula did not like it. The couple moved up the street to another house, at the corner of Seaforth, but it was not the one that stands there now. When their house came down in 1978, the interesting house that now occupies the site was moved from the corner of Seaforth and Maitland one block away. This house, called Huntingdon Cottage, dates from 1888. In 1907 it was sold to Duncan and Eliza Stewart, who influenced a change of street names in the neighbourhood. William Street became Seaforth, and James Street became Maitland. Duncan Stewart was from Seaforth, Ontario, and Eliza was from Huntingdon, Quebec (which is near Maitland, Ontario). Number 614 Seaforth is built in the bungalow style. The north-facing verandah is reminiscent of India, where this orientation offered the most protection from the sun. The Princess Patricia apartments stand at the junction of Seaforth and Maitland. They occupy the site of the former home of Captain James Troup, who managed the BC Coast Steamship Service from 1901. From here he could watch his ships enter and exit the harbor. It was he who initiated the practice of naming the fleet for princesses. Descend steps at the foot of Maitland to a gazebo on the West Song Walkway. Henry Simpson once owned the land where the gazebo stands. He came over on the Norman Morison in 1853 with John Russell. A baker, Simpson made his home on the Constance Cove Farm where […]
Front Street to Harbourfront
Victoria West Walk #2 (as revised at December 23, 2003) A one-way walk beginning at the elementary school on Front Street and ending on the harbourfront at the Delta Ocean Pointe Resort. Front – Russell – Langford – Catherine – Songhees harbourfront – Delta Ocean Pointe Resort. Start at Victoria West Elementary School, 750 Front Street. Front ends at Russell Street, named for Robert John Russell, who arrived on the Norman Morison in 1853 and worked on the farms of the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company (PSAC) in what is now Esquimalt. He saved his money and became a sizeable landholder, buying land when it was offered by PSAC's parent Hudson's Bay Company at a pound an acre. The School is situated above the low ground that drained across the Esquimalt School grounds and into the Gorge at Kinsmen Park. The area, known as Skinner's Bog, would flood and freeze over in winter, making it a popular skating pond. Across from the School, on the north side of Langford between Russell and Mary, was the home of the Semples. The family were actors and opened a theater on their grounds called Semple's Hall. Ascend Langford and turn right on Catherine. At the corner of Edward and Catherine was the old fire hall. The Anglican Church of St. Saviour's, at Henry and Catherine, dates from 1891. Its parishioners included military personnel from Work Point Barracks. An older church built by the Methodists once stood on the east side of Catherine at Wilson, and the former St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, built in 1890, occupied the southeast corner of Henry and Mary. Settlers would come across the harbour from James Bay by boat to attend services at St. Paul's. Methodists and Presbyterians amalgamated in the 1920's to form the United Church. The building to which they moved on Fullerton is now the Salvation Army High Point Community Church. Where Bay and Dundas join Catherine, there is an attractive sturdy stone building on the left (#225 Dundas). Now the Vic West Medical Centre, it was built in 1908 as the Victoria West Branch No. 2 of the Royal Bank of Canada. At the junction of Catherine and Esquimalt Road, the white brick building on the right dates from around 1909 and was originally part of the Silver Spring Brewery. Before that, the site had been occupied by the Fairall family's soda shop and brewery. Continue across Esquimalt Road to Spinnakers' Brew Pub. The small cove next to Spinnakers is what remains of Lime Bay. After Fort Victoria (then Fort Camosun) was established in 1843, lime for construction was brought in by barge and deposited here. The lime kiln itself was above where Kimta Road lies today. The bay was once much larger but was filled in stages from 1935 to the late 1950's to allow development. Lime Point, between Lime Bay and Mud Bay to the east, was an aboriginal defensive site. It was likely protected by a trench dug across the closed end of the small peninsula between the bays. There is no record of the Songhees (Lekwungen) actually living here in historic times. One of the more prominent Songhees family groups lived in Cadboro Bay, and oral histories mention earlier villages in a number of bays around Victoria's outer coast as well as in Esquimalt harbour and the Gorge narrows area. The defensive position at Lime Point would have protected parties that came here to fish or set out for clam, oyster, and mussel grounds around the inner harbour. After Fort Victoria was established and the Songhees had positioned themselves in Victoria West, they and other First Nations became part of the European wage economy. They worked to buy goods for their own consumption and for distribution at potlatches. In the early years of the Fort the Europeans were dependent on the Songhees for much of their food supply. In the mid-1800's, when Fort Victoria itself was but a small community, the Songhees Reserve in Victoria West was a thriving commercial and social centre. There were 500 to 700 permanent residents and as many as 5,000 annual visitors who camped in the area at various times of the year. After 1862, with establishment of the City of Victoria, the aboriginal population became a minority of the total, but still played an important role in the local economy. Tragically, the year 1862 also brought smallpox, carried by a visitor from San Francisco. Dr. Helmcken had inoculated the Songhees, but itinerant First Nations from the far north – Haida, Tlingit, Tsimshian, Bella Bella – were unprotected and unknowingly infected their families. Historians estimate that up to a third of Vancouver Island's First Nations population died in the epidemic. Proceed toward Victoria along the waterfront to a small plaza with a fountain flanked by two small statues. This was the location of Mud Bay, a favorite beach for visiting First Nations, especially after the 1870's. Condominiums were built here in the early 1990's. Continue to Songhees Point, where the two carved poles stand today. Across the harbour, beneath Victoria's Wharf Street, one can make out a reinforced stone wall. This is part of the back wall of the Hudson's Bay Company fur storage building. To the right is a handsome pink building – the Empire-style Malahat Building or Customs House (#1002 Wharf Street). Built in 1874-75, this is the oldest building west of Winnipeg belonging to the federal government. Mineral claims had to be filed here, and, when gold was discovered in the Klondike in 1897, it is said that the line of gold seekers at the Customs House stretched for miles. In 1859 the Royal Hospital was built on Songhees Point. It was used by both European and First Nations patients. In 1869 the hospital and the Women's Infirmary, established on Pandora Street in 1864, were amalgamated into a new Royal Hospital at the Pandora Street location. The combined facility was moved yet again, in 1890, to the present Royal Jubilee Hospital site. Meanwhile, […]
Victoria West Community Centre to Goose Loop
Victoria West Walk #1 (as revised at Jan. 18, 2004) A loop trip. Craigflower – Coventry – Selkirk – Banfield Park – Galloping Goose to Bay Street Bridge – retrace – Raynor to Craigflower. Start at the Victoria West Community Centre at 521 Craigflower Road. The building originally housed the Victoria Men's Brotherhood, established after World War I as a social and veterans' group. After women got the vote in 1919, the organization changed its name to Victoria Brotherhood and then, in the 1930's, to the Victoria West Community Association. Craigflower Road led to Craigflower Farm, named by Kenneth McKenzie after the Scottish estate of Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) governor Andrew Colvile. The farm was one of four established by the Puget's Sound Agricultural Company (PSAC) in what is today Esquimalt to provision Fort Victoria, other HBC posts, and the Russian America Company in Alaska. Walk west on Craigflower to Coventry, and turn right. At the corner, 701 Craigflower, is a blue wood frame house undergoing restoration. This was the gate house of "Burleith," the stately mansion built by James Dunsmuir around 1900. Burleith took its name from the mining town in Ayrshire, Scotland, where James's father Robert had been born. Walk to the end of Coventry at Selkirk Avenue, and look to the left to where Selkirk bends left. The bend was the approximate site of Burleith, of which no trace remains except for pieces of stone wall that have since been largely moved to other properties. Soon after Dunsmuir became Lieutenant Governor in 1906 and moved to Government House, the Burleith property was subdivided. Many period houses on nearby streets such as Northcott and Arm were built at that time. Dunsmuir set to work on a still grander estate at Hatley Castle and never returned to Burleith. The property fell into disrepair and burned to the ground in 1931. Turn right on Selkirk and enter Banfield Park. It is named for city alderman Charles Banfield, the Queen's Printer. The park was created in the 1950's but had to be reestablished in 1969 after it was found that certain legal formalities had been omitted. If the oversight had not been corrected, the treed slopes below the head of Catherine Street would probably have been converted to affordable housing. Walk down to Victoria Arm, part of the Gorge waterway. Directly across the water on Chapman Point is Gorge Road Hospital. To make way for the hospital, a stately mansion, Ashnola, was pulled down. Ashnola had been built around 1890 by Captain Northing Pinckney Snowden, husband of Emily Ellen Dunsmuir. Emily Ellen was James's sister and one of Robert and Joan Dunsmuir's seven daughters. Walk eastward along the water toward a prominent trestle. The cove below the children's playground is known as Bond's Beach, after William Bond, who owned a house at the site. Using discarded tugboat ropes attached to the old Garry Oak tree, children would swing out over the water. Rounding the corner beyond the green pipe railing, look upward to the right for glimpses of an attractive period mansion, "Roslyn." The mansion is in the Queen Anne style and was built around 1890 for Andrew Gray, wealthy owner of an iron works. It became derelict but was acquired and restored by the present owner. His action marked the beginning of the Catherine Street revival, which has seen many other fine homes in the area refurbished. Leave Banfield Park and pause at the trestle. The trestle was built in 1918 for the Canadian Northern Railroad (later Canadian National). Disused for many years, it was recently incorporated into an important recreational trail network. Here the Banfield Park trail meets the Galloping Goose Trail, which runs from downtown Victoria along the upper harbour and across the trestle into the Burnside-Gorge community and then Saanich. There it forks, one branch continuing northward to join the Lochside trail system and the other going westward beyond Sooke to Leechtown. At the far end of the trestle and to the right is the Selkirk Waterfront development. This includes the Gorge Rowing Club, until recently the home of Canada's Olympic rowers. The Club sits on the site of an old sawmill that was taken down in 1983. The widening of the Gorge – here called Selkirk Water – made this a convenient site for log booms. Midway across the trestle on the right is a small island called Halkett Island. This was one of several small islands around Victoria on which the First Nations people practiced above-ground burial in wooden coffins. Pranksters or vandals set fire to Halkett Island in the 1860's. Do not cross the trestle, but instead follow "the Goose" toward downtown Victoria and past the new Railyards residential development. On the far side of Selkirk Water, next to the rowing club, is "Mount Budget," a pile of old vehicles being reduced to scrap by the former Budget Steel (now Pacific Recycling). Next, in a clump of trees, is Point Ellice House, built in 1862 and later bought by Gold Rush magistrate and commissioner Peter O'Reilly. The house was home to three generations of O'Reilly's before being sold to the BC Government in 1974 and designated a heritage site. Beyond Point Ellice House is the Bay Street Bridge. The modern steel and concrete span replaced the wooden trestle bridge that collapsed in May, 1896, with the loss of 55 lives. The tragedy, North America's worst-ever streetcar disaster, practically bankrupted the city and stultified development for many years. Retrace steps northward but turn left at the trestle and ascend the ramp walkway to the junction of Arthur Currie Lane, Alston Street, and Raynor. In 1850 James Douglas started to negotiate treaties with the First Nations around Victoria. The part of Victoria West closest to the inner harbor was set aside as the Songhees Indian Reserve. Alston Street – formerly called Frederick Street but renamed for an Indian Affairs commissioner – was the boundary between the reserve and the subdivided part of Victoria West. Ascend […]

Plaza At 610 Commons Inc v. HCAD (Tex.App.- Houston [1st Dist.] Oct. 1, 2009)(Higley)
(ad valorem property tax appeal, plea to the jurisdiction, no substitution of different entity as owner under
Rule 28 governing dbas, common names, identity of property owner is the issue, real owner did not bring
protest and suit within the filing deadline)
AFFIRM TC JUDGMENT: Opinion by Justice Higley
Before Justices Jennings, Higley and Sharp
01-08-00690-CV Plaza At 610 Commons Inc. v. Harris County Appraisal District
Trial Court Judge: Hon Sharon McCally
MEMORANDUM OPINION
In this ad valorem property tax case, appellants, Mei Hsu Acquisition Corporation ("Mei Hsu") and Plaza
at 610 Commons, Inc. ("Plaza"), appeal from the trial court's dismissal of its suit against appellees, Harris
County Appraisal District and the Harris County Appraisal Review Board (collectively, "HCAD"), for want of
jurisdiction.
In two issues, appellants contend that the trial court erred by granting HCAD's plea to the jurisdiction
and dismissing appellants' suit.
We affirm.
Summary of Facts and Procedural History
The subject property is located at 6360 Martin Luther King, Jr., Boulevard in Harris County. For tax year
2006, HCAD determined the market and appraised values of the subject property to be $770,740. HCAD
assessed ad valorem taxes on the subject property based on the appraised value.
Plaza, who was reflected in HCAD's records to be the owner of the subject property, filed an
administrative protest of the market valuation. The appraisal review board issued an order affirming the
value. On December 19, 2006, Plaza filed a suit for review in the trial court.
On January 30, 2008, HCAD filed a plea to the jurisdiction, arguing that Plaza was not the true owner of
the subject property during the relevant period and that it therefore lacked standing to bring a suit for
review. HCAD contended that only a "property owner" may appeal an order of the appraisal review board,
citing Tax Code section 42.01 and caselaw interpreting. HCAD pointed to a warranty deed, showing that
Plaza had sold the subject property to Mei Hsu on September 17, 2003, three years prior to Plaza's suit for
review.
On February 1, 2008, Plaza amended its petition to include Mei Hsu as a plaintiff, pursuant to Tax Code
section 42.21(e)(1), [Footnote] and responded to HCAD's plea to the jurisdiction, contending that it was
permitted to so amend its petition. HCAD replied that Plaza had improperly attempted to amend its petition
outside the 45-day statutory deadline under Tax Code 42.21(a).
The trial court denied the plea to the jurisdiction. Subsequently, following this court's opinion in Koll
Bren Fund IV, LP v. Harris County Appraisal District, 01-07-00321-CV, 2008 WL 525799 (Tex. App.—
Houston [1st Dist.] Feb. 28, 2008, pet. denied) (not designated for publication), HCAD requested the trial
court to reconsider the plea to the jurisdiction. HCAD cited Koll Bren Fund to support its contention that "a
trial court does not have jurisdiction over an ad valorem valuation dispute filed by one who is not the
property owner and further, the real owner cannot create jurisdiction by amending the non-owner's petition
to change the party."
Appellants then filed a motion, pursuant to Rule of Civil Procedure 28, to substitute the plaintiff's "true
name," Mei Hsu, alleging that Plaza was the "common name" of Mei Hsu. HCAD responded that there was
no evidence that Plaza was ever an assumed name of Mei Hsu and that the undisputed evidence shows
that Plaza sold the subject property to Mei Hsu in 2003. The trial court denied appellants' Rule 28 motion,
reconsidered and granted HCAD's plea to the jurisdiction, and dismissed the suit.
Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction
A. Standard of Review
A plea to the jurisdiction challenges the trial court's subject matter jurisdiction to hear the case. Bland
Indep. Sch. Dist. v. Blue, 34 S.W.3d 547, 554 (Tex. 2000); Pineda v. City of Houston, 175 S.W.3d 276,
279 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2004, no pet.). Subject matter jurisdiction is essential to the authority
of a court to decide a case and is never presumed. Tex. Ass'n of Bus. v. Tex. Air Control Bd., 852 S.W.2d
440, 443–44 (Tex. 1993). The plaintiff has the burden to allege facts affirmatively demonstrating that the
trial court has subject matter jurisdiction. Id. at 446; Richardson v. First Nat'l Life Ins. Co., 419 S.W.2d 836,
839 (Tex. 1967).
The existence of subject matter jurisdiction is a question of law. State Dep't of Highways & Pub. Transp.
v. Gonzalez, 82 S.W.3d 322, 327 (Tex. 2002); Mayhew v. Town of Sunnyvale, 964 S.W.2d 922, 928 (Tex.
1998). Therefore, we review de novo the trial court's ruling on a plea to the jurisdiction. Mayhew, 964 S.W.
2d at 928. In deciding a plea to the jurisdiction, a court may not consider the merits of the case, but only
the plaintiff's pleadings and the evidence pertinent to the jurisdictional inquiry. County of Cameron v.
Brown, 80 S.W.3d 549, 555 (Tex. 2002). Further, a court can either afford plaintiffs the opportunity to
amend a pleading if the "issue is one of pleading sufficiency," or "if the pleadings affirmatively negate the
existence of jurisdiction, then a plea to the jurisdiction may be granted without allowing the plaintiff an
opportunity to amend." Id.
B. Analysis: Timely Amendment
In their first issue, appellants contend that the trial court's jurisdiction was proper because Plaza
properly amended its petition to change the name of the plaintiff to Mei Hsu, pursuant to Tax Code § 42.21
(e). See Tex. Tax Code Ann. § 42.21(e) (Vernon 2008).
Tax Code section 42.01 provides that "[a] property owner is entitled to appeal . . . an order of the
appraisal board. . . ." Id. § 42.01 (Vernon 2008) (emphasis added). Section 42.21(a) provides that
[a] party who appeals as provided by this chapter must file a petition for review with the trial court within 45
days after the party received notice that a final order has been entered from which an appeal may be had.
Failure to timely file a petition bars any appeal under this chapter.
Tex. Tax Code Ann. § 42.21(a). Footnote Section 42.21(e) states, in relevant part, that "[a] petition that is
timely filed under Subsection (a) . . . may be subsequently amended to: (1) correct or change the name of
a party . . . ." Id. § 42.21(e).
In Koll Bren Fund, we construed section 42.21 in a case similar to the instant one. 2008 WL 525799, at
*5. There, although Koll Bren had sold the property at issue to another party prior to tax year 2005, Koll
Bren nevertheless protested the 2005 valuation and the new owner did not file a protest. Id. at *1. Koll
Bren then filed an appeal within the 45-day limit and amended its petition 15 months later to include the
actual owner of the property. Id. HCAD filed a plea to the jurisdiction, asserting that the party appealing
the valuation by the appraisal board was not the property owner. Id. The trial court sustained the plea and
dismissed the suit. Id. On appeal of the trial court's ruling, this court held that Koll Bren "was not a proper
'party' to bring the suit" and that, "[n]o proper party having appealed to the district court within 45 days,
the trial court never acquired subject-matter jurisdiction." Id. at *5. We affirmed the trial court's dismissal of
the suit. Id. at *5–6.
The facts in the present case are strikingly similar to Koll Bren Fund. In the case at bar, although Plaza
sold the subject property to Mei Hsu in 2003, Plaza nevertheless protested the 2006 valuation and Mei
Hsu did not file a protest. Plaza then filed an appeal and amended its petition 14 months later to include
the name of the actual owner, Mei Hsu. [Footnote] HCAD filed a plea to the jurisdiction, asserting that
Plaza was not the property owner, and the trial court dismissed the suit. Here, like Koll Bren Fund, Plaza
was not a proper party to bring the suit below and, no proper party having appealed to the district court
within 45 days, the trial court properly dismissed the suit for review for want of jurisdiction.
Appellants attempt to distinguish the present case from Koll Bren Fund by arguing that here, unlike Koll
Bren, "Mei Hsu was the owner of the property, [and] was the party that prosecuted the administrative
protest . . . ." The record reflects that Mei Hsu was the owner of the property during the relevant period;
however, Mei Hsu did not pursue the administrative remedies or file the suit for review. See Cameron
Appraisal Dist. v. Rourk, 194 S.W.3d 501, 501 (Tex. 2006); Koll Bren Fund, 2008 WL 525799, at *7
(explaining that exhaustion of administrative remedies is mandatory to invoke trial court's jurisdiction). The
record shows that it was Plaza, which was not the property owner during the relevant period, that pursued
the administrative remedies and filed the suit for review in the trial court.
Appellants also argue that a defect in identifying the actual owner of the property does not preclude
jurisdiction, citing Plaza Equity Partners v. Dallas Central Appraisal District, 765 S.W.2d 520 (Tex. App.—
Dallas 1989, no writ). However, in Plaza Equity Partners, unlike here, the actual owner of the property was
before the court and was the party that had pursued the administrative remedies and had filed suit. Id. at
Here, because the owner of the subject property, Mei Hsu, did not pursue her administrative remedies
or appeal the appraisal board's order within 45 days, as required under Tax Code section 42.21, we
conclude that the trial court properly dismissed the suit for review for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. Tax
Code Ann. § 42.21(a) (stating that failure to timely file petition bars any appeal under this chapter); Koll
Bren Fund, 2008 WL 525799, at *7 (explaining that tax payer's failure to pursue administrative remedies is
jurisdictional).
Accordingly, we overrule appellants' first issue.
C. Analysis: Suit Under a Common Name
In their second issue, appellants contend that Rule of Civil Procedure 28 permitted the substitution of
Mei Hsu as plaintiff in Plaza's original, timely filed petition. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 28.
Rule 28 provides as follows:
Any partnership, unincorporated association, private corporation, or individual doing business under an
assumed name may sue or be sued in its partnership, assumed or common name for the purpose of
enforcing for or against it a substantive right, but on a motion by any party or on the court's own motion
the true name may be substituted.
Id. Appellants cite Chilkewitz v. Hyson, 22 S.W.3d 825 (Tex. 1999) and Sixth RMA Partners L.P. v. Sibley,
111 S.W.3d 46 (Tex. 2003), in support of their proposition.
In Chilkewitz, the court permitted, under Rule 28, a suit against an association named "Morton Hyson, M.
D., P.A." to go forward, although the defendant had been originally named as "Morton Hyson, M.D." 22 S.
W.3d at 827. The court concluded that "Morton Hyson, M.D." was an assumed or common name of
"Morton Hyson, M.D., P.A." because, inter alia, the association used letterhead in the name of the
individual doctor, and the phone number for the association and the individual doctor were the same in the
local phone book. Id. at 829.
In Sibley, the court permitted a suit by "Sixth RMA Partners, L.P." to go forward under Rule 28 when the
assumed name was "RMA Partners, L.P." 111 S.W.3d at 53. The court permitted the suit because the
"additional designation of 'Sixth' in documents relating to this matter was added for RMA's internal
purposes" only. Id. at 50.
Here, unlike Chilkewitz and Sibley, appellants do not direct us to anything in the record that supports
that Plaza was an assumed name of Mei Hsu. See e.g., Virrey v. Foodmaker, Inc, No. 05-95-00231-CV,
1995 WL 731038, *3 (Tex. App.—Dallas Dec. 8, 1995, no writ) (not designated for publication) (holding
that Rule 28 did not apply to a suit against "Jack in the Box, Inc. in its corporate name" when actual
defendant was Foodmaker, a different corporation, for which Jack in the Box, Inc. was not an assumed
name).
Moreover, before Rule 28 can be used to allow suits based on "common names," there "must be a
showing that the named entity is in fact doing business under that common name." Seidler v. Morgan, 277
S.W.3d 549, 553 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2009, pet. denied). Appellants have made no such showing.
To the contrary, the record reflects that Plaza is the grantor of the property at issue to Mei Hsu, which
occurred in September of 2003. This evidences an exchange between two distinct corporate entities, not
one entity in a partnership, assumed, or common name.
Here, Plaza, the plaintiff who originally filed suit is a corporation which, according to the evidence, is
wholly distinct from the true corporate owner of the property. See Howell v. Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of
Lubbock, Inc., 595 S.W.2d 208, 212 (Tex. Civ. App.—Amarillo 1980, writ ref'd n.r.e.) (considering, in case
in which plaintiff sued Coca-Cola Bottling Company and attempted to use Rule 28 to substitute "true
defendant," Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Lubbock, Inc, that "[t]he case before us is not and never has
been a suit against a business entity in its partnership, assumed or common name.") Because the record
does not support that Mei Hsu is the true name of Plaza or that Plaza is the common name of Mei Hsu, we
conclude that substitution under Rule 28 is not supported. Hence, we hold that the trial court properly
denied appellants' motion to substitute and dismissed their case.
Accordingly, we overrule appellants' second issue.
We affirm the judgment of the trial court.

El menhir de Luzim, también conocido como marco de Luzim, es un monumento megalítico del municipio de Penafiel, Portugal.

Descripción e historia
El menhir está situado en un lugar conocido como Lomar, en la zona de Tapada de Sequeiros, en una zona ligeramente montañosa entre varias elevaciones, siendo considerado parte de la Serra de Luzim. Este lugar se encuentra en el límite entre las parroquias de Luzim e Vila Cova y Perozelo, ambas del municipio de Penafiel, teniendo acceso por la Carretera Nacional 312. El menhir forma parte del conjunto de monumentos megalíticos de Luzim o de Tapada de Sequeiros, que consta de cinco mámoas y el grupo de pinturas rupestres de las Pegadinhas de São Gonçalo.

Consiste en un monolito de granito alargado, de sección subpentágono, sin elementos decorativos, que se instaló verticalmente sobre el suelo. Tiene unos 2,5 m de altura, de los cuales 2,15 m están por encima del suelo. Durante los trabajos arqueológicos realizados en la década de 1930 por el investigador Joaquim Santos Júnior, se descubrieron una serie de pequeñas piedras en forma de cuña alrededor de la base, que servía de soporte.

El monumento habría sido erigido durante el Neolítico o el Neocalcolítico. Las primeras referencias al menhir fueron publicadas en 1864 por Simão Rodrigues Ferreira, en el periódico O Século XIX, publicado en Penafiel, y pueden ser los registros más antiguos en territorio portugués sobre un monumento megalítico de este tipo. Rodrigues Ferreira volvió a escribir sobre el menhir de Luzim en 1875, en la obra Antiguidades do Porto, y en 1880, en los Anales del Municipio de Penafiel. En 1895, el menhir fue mencionado por el arqueólogo José Leite de Vasconcellos en la obra O Archeologo Português.

En la década de 1930, el monumento fue estudiado por Joaquim Santos Júnior, por invitación del párroco José Monteiro de Aguiar, habiendo excavado su base. En 1940, José Monteiro de Aguiar y Joaquim Santos Júnior publicaron un trabajo conjunto O menhir de Luzim, a raíz de una ponencia presentada en el Congreso del Mundo Portugués. En la década de 1960 José Lanhas escribió sobre el menhir, y en 1970 fue clasificado como Bien de Interés Público por Decreto N° 251, del 3 de junio. En 1982, Vítor Oliveira Jorge investigó el monumento como parte de su tesis doctoral sobre megalitismo en el norte del país. En 2008, fue objeto de obras de limpieza, pasando a formar parte del Itinerario Arqueológico del Vale do Tâmega - Penafiel, con la instalación de un camino peatonal, que conecta varios monumentos de la zona.

OK, Now Delta Has Kicked a Family Off a Flight for No Apparent Reason
It's unclear what exactly the causes are, but apparently all airlines are in a competition with DMVs to see how fast they can become the most customer-unfriendly industry on the planet. We probably don't need to tell you about the series of debacles that befell United Airlines during the last month, but let's recap anyway:
There was the high-profile, intensely dramatic removal of a passenger from his seat that led to everyone on the flight getting a refund;
A literal scorpion dropped onto a passenger from an overhead compartment;
United decided to kick a couple off a flight while they attempted to travel to their OWN WEDDING; and then
A giant, adorable bunny died aboard a United flight, because everything is out of control at this point.
Now it looks like Delta Airlines, the largest in the world, didn't want to get left looking classy or anything. Late last month, Delta staff kicked off a family from a flight from Maui to Los Angeles because of some confusion about a seat purchased for their teenage son but occupied by their two-year-old.
There's a lot back and forth, which you can watch, the low point for Delta is when the father of the family can be heard say, "I have two infants and nowhere to stay. There's no more flights. What are we supposed to do—sleep in the airport?"
