qise Lee, Clemson’s “Mr. Everything” wide receiver Sammy Watkins, Michigan’s massive offensive tackle Taylor Lewan, and the man that needs no introduction, South Carolina’s Jadeveon Clowney, who could be the first overall pick of the 2014 NFL Draft!
As Roc Nation continues to seek out some of the bright young stars in sports today, such as Yankees’ Robinson Cano, New York Jets’ Geno Smith, and Skylar Diggins of the WNBA Tulsa Shock, the acquisition of London would give an already powerful name brand, tons of validation. London brings a stellar reputation, deep connections within the NFL community, and the knowledge-base necessary to negotiate complex player contracts.
These are indeed powerful players in their respective industries! An alliance could change the landscape of the sports industry, and how sports business gets done! Seems like Rob and The ROC are deep “in the building!”.
This story is to be continued as one of the hottest sports business news items of late. Also included in this story are soundbites (specifically regarding Rob London) I was able to obtain from one of London’s former client’s father, Rodney Taylor, of Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyrod Taylor, Leshawna Pead, mother of St. Louis Rams starting running back Isaiah Pead, and Simone Mitchell former recruiting manager at Dow Lohnes.
&gt; All Tony had to do was talk to the doctor and let him know that it was a miscommunication and guarantee it wouldn’t happen again. 

Sure that would placate him then but it doesn't mean he wouldn't be weary and/or unwilling to associate with Tony again in the future.  Even if everyone got their cars back it was still a major headache for the doctor and everyone involved.  In my opinion, regardless of how Tony handled the situation afterwards the guy would forever be weary to be around Tony.

Suppose the doctor had a friend who was on the fence about joining them for a game.  After hearing that story from the doctor he might decide it's not worth the risk.Mud boggin’ in Del Mar

Short URL:Woman who fell on slippery restaurant floor cannot sue; court rules this type of fall "does not typically cause serious injury."
Denise Klausing suffered injury when she fell on a slippery floor at the Uptown Grille in Oakland County. The restaurant's insurer rejected her claim for benefits, so she filed a premises liability action, arguing that the slippery floor was a hazard and that the restaurant owed its patrons a duty to make the floor reasonably safe.
The appellate court filed a disappointing opinion upholding the trial judge's summary dismissal of Klausing's case. It concluded that the slippery floor was an "open and obvious" danger, visible on casual inspection, and therefore the restaurant owed no duty to address the danger. Even though some patrons testified that the slipperiness of the floor was not "obvious," the Court ruled there was no question of material fact on that score.
The woman argued that even if the floor's danger was open and obvious, the restaurant should have owed a duty to make it reasonably safe, in part because once she recognized the slipperiness, she had no means of avoiding the floor by a safe exit.
The appellate panel adopted a series of findings and holdings that appear less than persuasive in holding that the commercial entity owed no duty to patrons to make its floor reasonably safe. Among other rulings, the Court held that since the Plaintiff had commented on the slippery floor after she first transversed it and slipped on the way in, the owner was protected by the "open and obvious" doctrine and owed no duty to act. Further, the Court held that even though the floor looked "dull" and not slippery to some patrons, its condition remained "open and obvious" because Plaintiff became aware of it when she slipped. Simply because a patron has, indeed, discovered a hazard does not mean that it meets the qualifications of "open and obvious:" historically, the plaintiff's actual knowledge of a dangerous conhdition became an issue of comparative fault, not a question of the duty of the landowner.
The Court rejected the idea that "open and obvious" shouldn't be applied because Richardson had no safe exit, pointing out that she crossed the floor safely after stopping at the hostess stand, and again to take a phone call. The judges ruled that because the "open and obvious" doctrine applied, Richardson was required to exit immediately after observing the slipperiness of the floor or she lost any reasonable protection from the law.
Finally, the judges ruled that the other "special aspects" exception to the "open and obvious" doctrine didn't apply because the hazard wasn't unreasonably dangerous. To support this finding it pointed out that other members of Richardson's party crossed the floor safely, and that there were "safe" alternatives available to Richardson: she could have asked the restaurant staff to remedy the slippery floor or requested that the staff distribute mats to walk on.
So the restaurant's lack of due care is excused, but Richardson's failure to seek extraordinary protection results in a complete loss of her remedy for negligent maintenance of the restaurant.I was an ordinary woman, happy and content with my life. A loving husband, dotting parents-in-law,two affectionate sons - Prijith Kumar(9) and Sajan Kumar (6). As I was taking care of my family with my heart and soul, I didn't realise there was something more in store for me.
One day Satish, my husband, was complaining of stomach pain, and a lump on his stomach. He went to the hospital and after the clinical examination, a series of tests ere ordered. The final diagnosis turned out to be the advanced stage of Lymphoma (stage III), a form of stomach cancer. The lump was operated, but soon two more lumps came up.
"O God, Why me?" asked Sathish, folding his hands. "In such a young age, why should I get this? who will take care of my family?" Crying in despair, he stared at the blank future.
I couldn't see him crying. He was hesitant to tell me the seriousness of his illness. But he knew that one day or other he had to tell me. So, the earlier the better. When he finally revealed it to me, I wanted to console him, but what would I say? Instead, I too cried with him. I couldn't think of anything about our future, all that I could think was falling at the feet of God and ask for courage and strength to go through the present situation.
We were just lower middle class people and didn't have any insurance or other property to sell to meet his medical expenses. All that we had was our small family house in the city limits of Thiruvananthapuram. Since Sathish was the soul bread winner of the family, we couldn't think of anything else, and decided to sell the property for his treatment, even though there was no assurance that he will be recovered completely. But leaving our trust in God we went ahead and made arrangements for the sale, which will contribute to the treatment expenses amounting to Rs.12 lakhs.
When my husband came to know about our decision he protested. He was very much against it and told us he preferred death than selling the only property we had.
More than his health, he was worried about our future by selling the house.
"Where will we move to? A rented home?" "How will we pay the rent?" "What will happen to my wife and our kids?" "Who will take care of my aged parents?"
He was worried about these questions, which had no answer.
Finally, the house was sold, and we moved to a small rented house. In the meanwhile, Sathish went through two more operations, 24 radiations and 6 chemotherapy, by then we had already spent Rs. 1 1/2 lakhs. He was required to take 40 more radiations. Still the future was at bleak, and he was given just 3 months time!
Sathish was completely shattered. He didn't want any more treatment. He was frustrated, and prayed God day and night asking for His mercy. By then he knew that only God can save him from the clutches of death and continued to pray. Seeing his struggle, some of the patients in the hospital told him to call Jesus and pray. With all his hearts, Satish prayed Jesus, socked in tears, promising Him to give himself to God, and vowed that if he was spared he would spend his remaining days for God's work.
During his heartbroken prayers, something happened. He felt some unusual happenings in his body and mind like an electric shock. Soon he felt that he is free from his illness and a strange feeling of happiness and joy enveloped him.
This made us believe that miracles do happen. My husband was discharged from the hospital without doing any further radiation or chemotherapy, to start his promise to God, which was a turning point in our life. He is very happy with his present life, a gift from God, serving God, by way of helping the needy.
With the unspent money we had from selling our house, we bought a land in a remote village and built a small house and a church adjacent to it. Since then we
