Early in my career as a Utah injury attorney, a young, Air National Guardsman came to me. He was watching a softball game near the Salt Lake City Airport, when a gust of wind picked up a piece of plywood from land owned by the government. The wind carried the plywood one hundred feet and dropped it on the young man's wrist. A highly respected Salt Lake City attorney told him the case was, at best, worth nuisance value of one thousand dollars. The attorney was experienced but not in injury law. In the law of "Torts", (injury law) injuries caused by nature are known as "Acts of God". ) Was this an Act of God? "Not if it could have been predicted," says Utah injury law. Research from the National...

What is an "act of god?" Black's Law Dictionary defines it as "An act...[caused] exclusively by violence of nature without the interference of human agency." Typically these are "events outside of human control, such as sudden floods or other natural disasters for which no one can be held responsible." (Wikipedia.) However, if a contractor failed to follow the building code and because of that a house was blown away by a hurricane, the contractor could be held liable. What about a driver who has a stroke and crashes into the next car? In cases like this you sometimes see insurance companies claim an "act of god" defense.

Last year when I was getting back into the sport of paintball, I went out and purchased a Tippmann A-5 paintball gun. These guns are purely mechanical and are very durable and simple to maintain. I reasoned this would be the best type of gun to use while playing paintball in the woods, especially since I had been using an older Tippmann, the 98 Custom. I used this gun for a little over a year and had some up and downs with it. Through that year I purchased and installed many upgrades and the most prevalent one was an air-through stock. This adds a stock to the gun and it allows for a remote air line to be used so you don't have to carry the air tank on the gun itself. Instead you wear it on your...

Keeping track of time Humans have been keeping track of time throughout the ages using everything from hourglasses to sundials. During the second half of the 13th century, the very first mechanical clocks were developed. These early clocks were huge contraptions made with heavy iron frames and large gears, usually placed in church towers and striking the church bell on the top of each hour. Later enhancements led to an hour hand and the ability of the clocks to strike every quarter-hour. Eventually, during the first half of the 15th century, personal clocks started to appear. The grandfather clock gets a boost from astronomers In 1582 Galileo Galilei discovered that you could use a pendulum to keep...

Traveling "stand-by presents continuous opportunities for creativity and fortitude. This is an "extreme" waiting game not for the faint of heart or the easily discouraged. It can be fun and financially fulfilling if both understood to start with and then endured well. Now, don't misunderstand, here. We have traveled stand-by a number of times over the past couple of years. The airlines personnel on board the planes, at the gates, and on the phones have always been friendly and helpful. They have been as accommodating as they possibly can. There is a hard reality, here. Traveling "stand-by" puts you at the bottom of the seating priority list. That's just the way it is. There is no point in...

In the early 80s, less than 10% of all ski resorts in the USA permitted access to snowboarders. Nowadays, just 4 anti-snowboard resorts remain. As snowboarding entered the main stream - going from a renegade fad to becoming an Olympic sport - resorts across the world have embraced snowboarding customers. And why not? Skiing was getting stale, and snowboarding was attracting a whole new generation of snow sports enthusiasts who had no previous interest in the two-plank discipline. The more foresightedly ski resorts quickly realized that by promoting snowboarding, and building areas called terrain parks which had specially made jumps, they could reap the financial rewards. It wasn't long before the...
