Dale Sanderson is a senior litigation partner at Davis. He is experienced in commercial litigation and arbitration with emphasis on contract, corporate and shareholder disputes, professional negligence, products liability, land transactions, trusts and breach of trust, breach of confidentiality, trade secrets, defamation, injunctive relief and construction.
Dale has appeared as counsel before all levels of provincial and federal courts including the Federal Trial and Appellate Courts, the British Columbia Provincial, Supreme and Appellate Courts and the Supreme Court of Canada.
He has appeared as counsel before a wide variety of arbitration boards and administrative tribunals including the B.C. Labour Relations Board, B.C. Energy Commission, Workers' Compensation Board, Medical Appeal Board, B.C. Motor Carrier Commission, B.C. Coroners' Inquests, B.C. Securities Commission and the National Energy Board.
He has been counsel or judge in approximately 350 cases where written reasons, both reported and unreported have been issued which can be referenced here (see written decisions).
He has considerable experience in the following areas:
Judicial Experience
Dale accepted an appointment to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands on March 20, 2000, where he has sat as a judge for three years. He elected not to renew his contract and decided to return to private practice in Vancouver but returned to the Cayman Islands at the request of the Chief Justice to sit as an acting judge for several months each year from 2003 until 2008.
While sitting on the Court, he heard cases in a wide variety of areas. The majority of his work was in the commercial field, including liquidations and receiverships, trusts, corporate reorganizations and disputes, contractual disputes, judicial review and administrative or public law matters. He sat in many significant family law cases as well as criminal law cases including murder and attempted murder and complex commercial fraud cases. In addition, he heard many cases involving freezing of assets under the Proceeds of Crime Law, Misuse of Drugs Law, the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty and money laundering legislation.
In 2008 Dale, along with 12 other senior litigators in BC, was appointed to sit in the Provincial Court of British Columbia as part of a pilot project in Vancouver and Richmond. He sits one day per month.
General Commercial Litigation
In the 24 years prior to his appointment to the bench, Dale's general practice was in commercial litigation. He has tried cases in a variety of areas such as breach of contract, shareholders disputes, leasing and sale of land, municipal by-laws, breach of trust, breach of confidentiality, trade secrets, liquidations and receiverships both national and cross-border, wrongful dismissal, numerous injunctions, including Mareva injunctions and Anton Pillar orders, commercial lending transactions, enforcement of foreign judgements, proceedings under the Judicial Review Procedure Act, bankruptcy matters, fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation, expropriation, asset and share purchase agreements, non-competition agreements and personal injury. He also has experience in criminal law having done many provincial court trials as well as acting as counsel in commercial fraud, Competition Act, criminal negligence causing death and murder cases.
Products Liability
Dale has acted in over a dozen significant products liability cases. For example, he has been counsel for a major heavy equipment manufacturer in several fatality cases involving alleged mechanical failures of graders and unstable design of all-terrain vehicles; Mitsubishi Canada in several complex equipment design cases dealing with large industrial and hydro-electric equipment failures; Skeena Cellulose, Crown Equipment Canada and others in cases involving design and operation of major industrial equipment.
Professional Negligence
Over the past many years, Dale has been counsel in a number of significant cases involving professional negligence. He has been plaintiffs counsel in several medical malpractice cases involving misdiagnoses and improper or incorrectly performed surgical procedures. He has also acted both as plaintiff and defence counsel in negligence cases involving accountants, lawyers, pharmaceutical companies and professional engineers. He has acted for the Law Society in unauthorized practice cases and as counsel to the Society in a complaint to the Disciplinary Committee.
Family Law
Dale has acted as counsel in many family law matters. Most recently he acted on behalf of a client seeking to set aside a marriage agreement which provided for a fairly small settlement in the event of divorce. The trial judge concluded the agreement was unfair, that our client had made a contribution to the business and therefore the court made a substantial award for the division of family assets and spousal support. See W.H. v. I.R., 2012 BCSC 1483.
He has also appeared as counsel in a significant case where the court granted our client a worldwide mareva injunction freezing assets alleged to exceed $20 million in value.
He also acted as counsel in a recent leading case in British Columbia dealing with when a BC resident may be permitted to sue, in the Provincial Court of British Columbia, a former spouse or partner who is living in a foreign jurisdiction for spousal or child support. See Kendregan v. Kendregan, 2009 BCSC 23.
Dale has considerable experience in liable and slander cases, both as counsel and advisor. He has recently acted as counsel in several important cases including: DDI Diamonds Direct Inc. v. Raney (2006), 58 B.C.L.R. (4th) 78 (B.C.S.C.), British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals v. Stone et al, Creative Salmon Company Ltd. v. Staniford, 2007 BCSC 62 and Creative Salmon Company Ltd. v. Staniford, 2009 BCCA 61.
Construction / Engineering
He has been counsel in over 30 construction cases acting for both owners and contractors for such clients as Fletcher Challenge, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Vancouver General Hospital, B.C. Hydro, ITT Canada, Skeena Cellulose, PCL Construction, Peter Kiewit & Sons, B.C.I.T., Kumagai Construction and the Operating Engineers' Pension Plan as well as many others. The cases have involved lengthy and complex arbitrations and trials of up to five months duration. The issues have included delay claims, changes to work and design, engineers' negligence, defective construction, equipment and building failure including leakage, bidding disputes and builders' liens.
Dale has been counsel in several aviation accident cases. He has acted for both injured passengers and families of deceased passengers, as well as airlines and air charter companies in both fixed wing and helicopter cases. He succeeded in an action against an insurer for breach of policy in denying coverage. The various cases have involved issues of pilot error and mechanical failure, weather conditions and the requirements under the Aeronautic Act and Regulations. In addition, he has experience with accident reconstruction experts, metallurgical and engineering experts, pilot, medical, actuarial and cost of future care experts in aviation cases. He is currently counsel to the Pilots Association of a major airline.
Administrative and Public Law
Dale has appeared as counsel before a number of administrative tribunals as well as trial and appellate courts in judicial review matters. He has been involved in many cases dealing with municipal or city planning, professional conduct, environmental disputes, appeals from commercial arbitral awards, and hearings and appeals from various government tribunals.
Regulatory Hearings
Dale has acted as counsel to the British Columbia Petroleum Corporation, Westcoast Transmission, the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Resources in many significant cases before the National Energy Board, the B.C. Energy Commission, arbitration panels and the Federal Trial and Appellate Courts. The cases have involved lengthy hearings dealing with wholesale and retail prices for natural gas, taxation, determination of natural gas reserves, approval for capital expansions to pipeline systems and applications to set aside new construction approval.

Tory MP Michael Fallon has replaced John Hayes as energy minister.
Last year Fallon questioned whether "specific targets, for example on…climate change, are the best way of focusing our spending where it is most needed".
Fallon's predecessor was criticised by green activists for his views on wind farms, but going by statements like this, Fallon may be even worse.

David Mulroy
EAU CLAIRE — The Seminar on the History of Science at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire will present a lecture by David Mulroy, professor of Greek and Latin and chair of the department of foreign languages and linguistics at UW-Milwaukee, at 3 p.m. March 31 in Room 103 of Hibbard Hall.
Mulroy will speak on "The War Against Grammar," which is the title of the book he published in 2003. In the book he disputes the fashionable idea that the teaching of grammar is a waste of time. He analyzes studies during the middle decades of the 20th century that showed the uselessness of grammar and questions the conclusions of these studies.
Mulroy advocates thorough grammatical education from the early grades onward.
"Young students need the kind of understanding that the linguists themselves started with when they were young," Mulroy wrote. "In most cases, that means a small number of broad concepts not so terribly different from what Shakespeare learned from Lily."
In his talk, Mulroy will extend his ideas beyond the book. He believes, for example, that the plight of students in immersion schools is a further illustration of the harmful effects of the war against grammar.
Mulroy holds a Ph.D. from Stanford University and has taught at UW-Milwaukee since 1973. Besides "The War Against Grammar," his publications include three books of translations of ancient Greek and Roman poets, the latest a translation of the poems of Catullus.
The lecture is free and open to the public. For information, contact Robert Greene, philosophy and religious studies department, (715) 836-3167.

The amendment also clarifies how quickly affected persons must be notified after law enforcement determines that notification would not compromise a criminal investigation. The following are answers to basic questions about the Data Act.
Who does the Data Act cover?
What is "personal information"?
Does the Data Act cover paper records?
What does someone subject to the Data Act have to do if he or she suspects a security system breach?

Gout Flare-ups Rise Sharply With Certain Foods: Study
THURSDAY, May 31 (HealthDay News) -- Meat, seafood and other foods rich in compounds called purines are associated with a fivefold increased risk of immediate gout flare-ups, a new study shows.
Gout is a form of arthritis that often first occurs in the big toe. Anecdotal evidence has suggested that purine-rich foods can trigger gout attacks, but it hasn't been clear whether they cause immediate attacks.
The study included more than 600 patients with gout, most of whom were men and who had an average age of 54. The patients were followed for a year. During that time, the patients had a total of nearly 1,250 gout attacks, most of which occurred in the toe joints, said Dr. Yuqing Zhang and colleagues at the Boston University School of Medicine.
The average amount of dietary purines consumed during a two-day period without gout attacks was 1.66 grams, compared with 2.03 grams in the two days before an attack, according to a journal news release. Patients in the top 20 percent of purine consumption were nearly five times more likely to have a gout flare-up than those in the bottom 20 percent.
Animal sources of purines -- such as meat and seafood -- were associated with a much higher risk of a gout attack than plant sources, such as beans, peas, lentils, oatmeal, spinach, asparagus and mushrooms.
Not only do plant sources of purines have lower levels of the compounds, they also contain important nutrients and contribute to lowering insulin resistance, something promoted as a way to control gout, the researchers noted.
Other major dietary sources of purines include yeast and alcohol.
"Avoiding or reducing purine-rich food intake, especially of animal origin, may help reduce the risk of recurrent gout attacks," the researchers concluded.
The study was published online May 30 in the journal Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.
Although the research showed an association between increased purine consumption and more frequent gout attacks, it did not prove a direct cause-and-effect relationship.

Autism Treatment: Risky Alternative Therapies Have Little Basis in Science
Chicago Tribune
Date Published:
November 22, 2009
Thousands of U.S. children undergo these therapies and many more at the urging of physicians who say they can successfully treat, or "recover," children with autism, a disorder most physicians and scientists say they cannot yet explain or cure. But after reviewing thousands of pages of court documents and scientific studies and interviewing top researchers in the field, the Chicago Tribune found that many of these treatments amount to uncontrolled experiments on vulnerable children.
The therapies often go beyond harmless New Age folly, the investigation found. Many are unproven and risky, based on scientific research that is flawed, preliminary or misconstrued. Laboratory tests used to justify therapies are often misleading and misinterpreted. And though some parents fervently believe their children have benefited, the Tribune found a trail of disappointing results from the few clinical trials to evaluate the treatments objectively.

Dec. 2 (Bloomberg) -- New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has battled teachers association leaders over rewriting tenure rules, while Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels said he's weighing whether to back curbs on nongovernment unions.
The two are among several Republicans trying to limit the power of organized labor even after a successful bid by another, Wisconsin's Scott Walker, spurred a recall drive and voters repealed a similar law championed by Ohio's John Kasich.
Virginia Governor Robert McDonnell, chairman of the Republican Governors Association, said those developments won't sway his members from pursuing efforts to rein in unions. In some cases, that means expanding the roster of 22 states with right-to-work laws. In others, pending bills would place limits on the reach of labor organizations in government and industry.
"People realize the states that are doing the best on budgets, on job creation" are those with laws barring new workers from being required to join unions, McDonnell said yesterday at a meeting of the group in Orlando, Florida. "You see unions fighting for their lives" in those states, he said.
Lawmakers began enacting such measures in the 1930s, after federal legislation let employers that sign contracts with organized labor fire workers who refuse to join unions, according to the National Right-to-Work Legal Defense Foundation Inc. In 2001, Oklahoma became the 22nd state to add such rules.
Worker Pay
The average worker in a right-to-work state is paid $30,167 a year, or about $5,333 a year less than workers in those that don't have the rule, according to U.S. Labor Department data.
Indiana's Daniels said he's weighing whether to back a pending right-to-work bill. He said such a law would make his state more attractive to businesses considering relocating.
"We're missing between a quarter and a third of the opportunities because the business has this as a prerequisite," Daniels said. "That's a big matter to us, a big deal. In this economy, a state like ours needs every edge it can get."
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has also backed legislation to change the way teachers are evaluated and overhauling tenure.
In New Hampshire, the House of Representatives on Nov. 30 failed to override Democratic Governor John Lynch's veto of a similar measure.
"Today, 130 elected representatives in the House stood with ironworkers, teachers, nurses and firefighters to sustain Governor Lynch's veto," Mark MacKenzie, president of the New Hampshire AFL-CIO, said in a statement. "Their vote is a clear signal to all of our elected leaders, in New Hampshire and elsewhere, that attacking the rights of everyday Americans isn't the key to economic prosperity."
Recall, Repeal
Overhauling education, adding jobs and cutting the cost of government will top to-do lists for the coming year, according to Republican governors who gathered for two days this week near Walt Disney World in Orlando. Out of 29 Republican governors, 26, plus Luis Fortuno of Puerto Rico, attended the meeting, which held sessions on everything from China trade to politics.
Walker, who took office in Madison in January, faces a recall spearheaded by incensed union leaders after signing a law that limits most collective bargaining to wages and outlaws automatic dues collection from workers' pay.
Christie, whose 2009 election made him the first Republican to win a statewide New Jersey race since 1997, said he thinks Kasich and Walker may both benefit as taxpayers see savings from the measures they championed.
"Some of this stuff is emotional and it's cyclical, so you can't allow yourself to get caught up in that," Christie said. "If you wind up being governed by polls in this job, then you're going to be a failure. You are absolutely going to be a failure."
Union Opposition
Attempts to curb bargaining power are "overreaching," Brandon Davis, political director of the Washington-based Service Employees International Union, said in a statement.
"The Republican Governors' Association is interested in advancing a political agenda that caters to the needs of the richest 1 percent rather than the nurses, firefighters, police officers and teachers who care for us when we're ill, teach our children and keep us safe from harm," Davis said by e-mail.
Arizona Governor Jan Brewer plans to push for a bill similar to a proposal she raised last year, to revamp the compensation system for public employees and making it easier to fire those who perform poorly, she said in an interview.
Idaho Governor Clement "Butch" Otter earlier this year signed a package of education bills that include limiting union negotiations to salary and benefits alone. Superintendent of Instruction Tom Luna faced a recall drive that failed to gain enough support to get on the ballot, Otter said in an interview. He said after meetings with other Republican state leaders, he doesn't think a backlash to the changes made in Wisconsin or Ohio will have much effect on similar efforts.
"There's not anybody who's going to back off of their original intent because of what Scott's going through or what John Kasich went through," Otter said.

Royal Caribbean says new eateries are on the way for its 2,100-passenger Serenade of the Seas, which is scheduled for a makeover in December.
The 9-year-old vessel will get an Italian eatery called Giovanni's Table and an Asian eatery called Izumi as well as a new "chef's table" dining experience.
All three concepts debuted in recent years on Royal Caribbean's new Oasis Class ships and are slowly rolling out to older vessels.
Royal Caribbean says Serenade of the Seas passengers will be able to buy a package that includes dinners at Giovanni's Table, Izumi and the ship's steakhouse, Chops Grille, for $55 per person. A second package that costs $130 per person will add the chef's table experience to the mix.

Royal Caribbean also plans a discount offer at Giovanni's Table that will give a $30 beverage credit to groups of four or more that book a table during the first two nights of a sailing. A second offer will give groups of eight or more that book a table on the first night of a cruise a discounted $14-per-person rate. The eatery normally costs $20 per person.

FREEPRESS wrote on Jan 17, 2013 11:10 AM:
" FBI crime statistics show that assault type weapons and high capacity magazines are used in a fraction of 1% of gun related crimes and are not the weapon of choice for inner city murders, so why even consider banning them? It has been repeatedly said that Sandy Hook was an "anomaly" and more a mental health problem then a gun problem. Then why are the liberal left politicians pushing for more "gun-control" laws when the ones on the books already are ineffective at preventing the greatest majority of gun related violence? It's because of: "You don't ever want a crisis to go to waste; it's an opportunity to do important things that you would otherwise avoid......." -Rahm Emanuel in 2008. Heaven forbid they waste a good crisis like Newtown to promote their agenda. Once again it's not about the safety of our children but strictly an opportunity to use the death of 20 children as a means to their ends. How disgusting can you get? "

A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Pro-Family, Pro-Oxford Comma, Catholic (with Asperger's) who reads and writes as her obsession. These are the ramblings of the books I read.
I sometimes go through stages of "genre love", I'm addicted to mystery thrillers, Catholic theology, memoirs, 20th century Chinese historical fiction & Victorian fiction, and nonfiction; but you'll find I read an even wider variety of books than that. I have a teensy fascination with macabre non-fiction books about death and anything about insane asylums.
I also tend to post a lot of reviews of juvenile/teen books, with a nod towards what parents can expect to find that might or might not be objectionable.
I also blog about graphic novels and manga on a separate BLOG.

Comments about 6 Zone Switching Relay w/Priority & 3 Powerports:
I needed four relays and had very little space. I also wanted to have room for two extra zones for an unbuilt addition. Taco had the perfect solution with this six relay expandable unit

Very dependable and eazy to install.
Works great. Solved cold shower problem
By tireguy
from Gloucester, MA
Installed this TACO 6 zone control unit with priority zone to replace five TACO individual controllers. Having the priority zone hooked up to the water heater solved my problem with loosing hot water in the shower if one of the heating zones was getting activated. I've also been able to sell the used controllers to offset the cost of the 6 zone controller. The unit did arrive poorly packaged for shipment though. The relays came out of their sockets during shipment and were bouncing around inside, standoff on the circuit board was broken. The unit works fine though, no problems, just very poorly packaged.
Would buy again

Very functional relay
Seems well made

I used this unit in my radiant heating system and it worked great and seems well made and was easy to hook up. Would recommend this.
Great Addition to my Home Heating System
By Kenejr
from Guilford, CT
This controller gives me the feeling that my home heating needs are finally being met. My home has never been so comfortable, since I bought it with a Rube Goldberg type two-zone system. Fixed all my issues. The documentation was a little hard to follow...I had to do a lot of additional research to make sure I was wiring things properly.
This panel is great!
By Chuck, heating contractor
from Topeka Kansas
Very slick panel. Makes entire installation look more professional. I have used these before but I had a minor problem this time(my mistake in wiring) and called Taco tech support, they really knew their product and got me back on track.

I teach students and all ages and abilities on Baroque and silver flutes at my home in Arlington, MA. My love for teaching began during summers teaching at Camp Encore/Coda, and I now have private students in Boston year-round. In private lessons, I believe in focusing on posture and breathing because this leads to freedom of movement and breath, which in turn allows for better technique and musicality. My style of teaching posture and breathing are inspired by what I have learned through study of the Alexander Technique as well as Body Mapping, though I am not certified to teach either. These basic skills are important at any level and will be incorporated into lessons for beginners through advanced students.
I regularly offer courses for beginning modern flute students at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education. Visit their website for current course offerings.
As an historical flute specialist, I offer coachings in Baroque and Classical Style as well as baroque flute lessons. Please visit the Baroque Flutistry section on my Projects page to read more about these activities.
$40 – 30 minutes
$50 – 45 minutes
$55 – 60 minutes
Please use my contact page to ask any questions or request a free trial lesson. I look forward to hearing from you.

Welcome to the Wiki! I found it difficult to read the text on Urban Body in the original format. However, I'm definitely not an expert on formatting images, and you're free to change it back to the way it was; you and I have the same amount of authority here and I promise I won't be offended :) —ElleWeber
2008-02-12 19:08:37 The reason that the [[Image(, right, thumbnail, 400)]] macro gets used with the thumbnail option is that not everyone has huge monitors and thumbnailing images down allows those that want to see more detail to click the image and see the full size picture without overwhelming the browser window of a person with a smaller screen. —JasonAller

Made of Money's local impact
Made of Money is an award-winning financial literacy programme, that works with parents and families on low incomes.
In 2012/13 QSA supported over 360 families in east London to improve their money management and communication about money in the home. It equips parents with the skills and knowledge to tackle the pressures that money puts on them.
"People get put off at the mention of money because it's such a big, worrying issue. It seems so scary. Not having the money to pay is quite shameful, such a dark place. I'd been unwell since 2004 with it, but since doing Made of Money I'm sleeping and dreaming again," said Dainhea.
We take Made of Money to where families are. In Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Islington we work mainly through schools and children's centres. We also deliver Made of Money in women's refuges across London (and we train refuge staff to use Made of Money in their day-to-day support work).
Locally, in 2012/13 we worked with 366 families, including 556 children, to improve their financial capability, well-being and communication skills.
Yolanda has two young children and heard about Made of Money through her local community centre. Read her story here.
Wayne moved to Walthamstow from Jamaica when he was a child and has four children. It can be difficult to recruit fathers to family learning projects, and Wayne helped our team to get more dads at his school involved with Made of Money. Read his story here.
Made of Money's national impact
Our national training programme has shared this approach with over 300 people in local organisations across the UK trained to use Made of Money to benefit their local communities.
"Going on the Made of Money national training course for facilitators was invaluable really and I would recommend anyone to do it," says Mike. I was very pleased with it and I got more out of it than I had expected."
During 2012/13 facilitators who have been trained to use Made of Money in their work helped over 1,700 people with Made of Money. And this is just the people that we know about.
In the past year we trained 124 people from 53 organisations to become Made of Money facilitators, bringing the total over the past four years to almost 400. We trained facilitators from Manchester, Belfast, York, Gateshead and many other place from around the UK.

I have used a pinata for my daughters birthday for the last 3 years, and have always needed something to bust it open with. I was thrilled to find this, and it is durable so I can use it again!

Title: Functional, but paper comes right off
Date: Feb 28, 2012
This worked great for the pinata at our party. Using it, we got through 20 kids batting at it from Kindergarten to 5th grade boys and girls. Well we kinda rigged it too so the older ones didn't get a good swing on it! But the paper didn't last on it after a few swings. It's a simple gray plastic rod at that point, but it was fine. Kids loved it.

Title: Good Idea poor execution
Date: Feb 20, 2012
The Pinata Buster is plastic which probably makes it less painful if you were hit with it but it barely survived one pinata. The Buster came apart (leaving tissue fragments all over) faster than the pinata.
I'm glad we tried it but we won't be using it again.

Title: Great addition to a pinata
Date: Sep 06, 2011
I had never heard of a Pinata Buster, but needed a few more dollars to qualify for free shipping...so we added this on. A great deal and made party prep easier. Just the right size for younger kids and the adults gave a few whacks too. Don't expect the pretty frills to stay intact, they came off with swings. But the stick itself is still in usable condition for our next party.

Title: Good pinata stick for kids

This was a great size for kids and better than using a broom or baseball bat. The decorations came off with each hit until the stick was completely bare, but it's easy enough to redecorate for future use.

This is a great stick for breaking pinatas, but do not expect the crepe paper decoration to stay on. We plan to keep the stick for future use and may re-decorate ourselves, but it really doesn't need to look that great to do it's job well.

I have never seen a "Pinata Buster" before! I order both of my kids birthday party supplies from here, every year! And of course, we always get them a pinata, and we always have a time trying to find something to bust the pinata with, that the kids can use! This will be my first time getting it, I am ordering it for my sons birthday party, and hopefully we can use it later for my daughters as well!! I will let everyone know how it worked!

Title: great idea
Date: Mar 12, 2011
Great size for kids, and safer than using a broom handle or something with splinters.
Something you could do yourself - but would probably cost more in time and energy than just to buy this one.
