Usual lawyers: “I shall, effective immediately upon your express or implied consent (which for the avoidance of doubt may be given by physical gestures), provide one (1) cup of tea for your consumption, the amount of such tea to be determined by reference to the type and size of said cup (to be elected at our sole discretion), without any continuing obligation to make future cups of tea.” Me: “I’ll make you a cup of tea.” #SmallBusinessLawyer #ContractLawyer #ContractDrafting

I work in beverage applications, so this year I'm going to go through some national beverage holidays, enjoy! January 16th is Prohibition Remembrance Day: For some PRE-history: 1657, The general court of Massachusetts bans the sale of alcohol to Native Americans and during the1800s, the first attempt to ban alcohol by Protestants was made. 1918, Congress enforces the Wartime Prohibition Act, banning alcohol above 1.28%. Prohibition in the United States was a nationwide constitutional ban on the production, importation, transportation, and sale of alcoholic beverages from 1920 to 1933. Then "finally" in 1933 the 21st amendment lifted the alcohol ban by overruling the 18th amendment. -         FUNFACT: Prohibition cost the federal government about $11 billion in taxes, and it took over $300 million to legalize the bill.  Today there is a decrease in alcohol consumption, for health and personal choices: Low - No ABV

Consultation: Consumption of alcohol in licensed pavement areas/off sales During the pandemic the government passed regulations allowing hospitality businesses to sell alcohol for takeaway, delivery and to drink in licensed pavement areas without making changes to their Premises Licence. These regulations are due to expire on 31 March 2025. For the next 8 weeks the government is running a consultation to propose making the temporary regulatory easements for off sales permanent or making amendments to the Licensing Act to extend the definition of off sales. #licensing #hospitality #rotherabray Jo Soar Caroline Twist

Sum if & Count if: *These two advanced formulas are great uses of conditional functions. *SUMIF adds all cells that meet certain criteria, and COUNTIF counts all cells that meet certain criteria. For eg : Imagine you want to count all cells that are greater than or equal to 21 (the legal drinking age in the U.S.) to find out how many bottles of champagne you need for a client event. You can use COUNTIF as an advanced solution, as shown in the screenshot below.

Veteran Housing Corp says that IF YOU ARE NOT PART OF A PERMANENT AND LASTING SOLUTION TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS AND HOMELESSNESS, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM! THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IS BROKEN AND NOT WORKING FOR AMERICAN TAXPAYERS Veteran Housing Corp would ask every TAXPAYER to demand and get answers from their elected and appointed government officials the below questions as they relate to any affordable, workforce, or supportive housing project in your community! 1. How much local, state, and federal funding, tax credits, or other government benefits or incentives did the project receive? 2. What is the affordability period for each project? Is the affordability period permanent and in perpetuity? 3. What guarantees exist have your local, state, and federal government officials obtained in writing that rents will not go up or that tenants will not be displaced or evicted after the "affordability period expires? Every local, state, and federal housing authority and affordable or workforce housing stakeholder should adopt the State of Vermont's "permanent affordability" policy as a model for all future government funded or subsidized housing projects or developments, no exceptions! https://lnkd.in/eFEUC8c8 Additionally, local, state and federal housing agencies should look to the Helsinki, FINLAND MODEL of ending homelessness by providing affordable housing for all 'It’s a miracle': Helsinki's radical solution to homelessness https://lnkd.in/er9HZSQU Even the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development AGREES THAT adopting FINLAND'S MODEL OF ERADICATING HOMELESSNESS may be of great value to resolving the affordable housing and homelessness crises in America https://lnkd.in/gkSZWYRU
