We posed to our panel of distinguished religious leaders of the region the following question:
Role of fear in religion: What is the influence of fear in religion? What is the theology of fear, how religion reacts to fear and how/why religion uses fear? Can fear bring discipline or wisdom or respect for God? Can fear be a gift from God?
Here is what they have to say:
ElizaBeth W. Beyer, Temple Beth Or rabbi
One can either fear G-d or love G-d. Our sages were ambivalent as to the better choice, though typically love was viewed as the greatest. Rashi said, those who serve G-d out of fear will run when the path is difficult, but one who serves out of love always returns. Maimonides wrote, one who serves out of love, not fear, is on a high level like Abraham whom G-d called, "friend."
"Yirah," often translated from Hebrew as fear, also means awe or reverence. It can come from seeing a dazzling rainbow, spectacular starlit night sky or majestic mountains. Awe also describes the realization that G-d is a living, interacting experience guiding us despite our arrogance or disbelief. G-d = a verb. Fear and love combine when one hones awareness of the Divine Presence. Then, fear may come from the thought of separation from such unity ... which is truly grounded in love.
Stephen Karcher, St. Anthony Greek Orthodox Church priest
The influence of fear in religion is great. However, fear can be crippling. For instance, in a cultural or religious system where fate is dominant, the fear of mortality and death might flourish. Likewise, in a society where materialistic political and philosophical ideologies govern, our biological existence might become the only reality we recognize; we might not be able to see anything beyond ourselves. In both cases, we are dominated by the transience of life.
Conversely, our Christian faith opens to us a world that is limitless and has no bounds. God is good. He is the lover of mankind. He is compassionate and understands the weakness of our human nature and the brevity of life. Through his gifts he heals us, and we come to know his love. We are liberated from fear and hopelessness. No longer driven by fear, our existence becomes a life of freedom and love.
Bradley S. Corbin, Bahá'í teacher
Baha'u'llah proclaims: "In truth, religion is a radiant light and an impregnable stronghold for the protection and welfare of the peoples of the world, for the fear of God impelleth man to hold fast to that which is good, and shun all evil." If we want to grow through honesty, virtue, wisdom and saintly character, consider the fear of God as we would our own father lovingly giving us the rules of our home to keep us safe and guide our behavior. This Earth today is holy ground, fragrant with the footsteps of one who has proved for all men to see that God is nearer than the jugular vein, that our lives are his, our deeds accountable to him, our growth through all his worlds by his permission. Fear is useful when benevolently applied to motivate us to take right action and gives us impetus to make difficult changes.
Stephen Bond, senior pastor of Summit Christian Church, Sparks
Many people reduce God to a cosmic teddy bear. But God is not to be trifled with! When God appeared in the burning bush, he commanded Moses to remove his sandals because he was on holy ground. When the Prophet Isaiah saw a vision of the throne room of God, he cried out, "Woe to me!"
Proverbs 1:7 says, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge ..." A reverent fear is the beginning point to discover who God is and how he created us to live. If we do not fear God, we are supremely naïve.
It's true that God is loving and gracious. But God also is holy, all-powerful and a consuming fire. One day we will all stand before God to give an account of our lives. This is not fiction or fairy tale. It is fact. The Bible is clear about this.
Sherif A. Elfass, Northern Nevada Muslim Community president
In Islam, fear and mercy of Allah go hand-in-hand. The Quran states: "Fear Allah as He should be feared" [3-102]. The fear felt for Allah the way he wants is called Taqwa. Taqwa is to believe in Allah, love him, fear his punishment and be a servant to him. Thus, believers experience two types of fear; fear from the torture of Allah if his prohibitions are not observed and fear from being deprived of Allah's consent if his commandments are not fulfilled. The fear of the believer is similar to the fear of a crazed lover who refrains from displeasing the beloved. Meanwhile, believers do not experience extreme fear because of their certainty of Allah's mercy and forgiveness. Worship is like a bird. Fear is one wing, hope the other and love is what drives the bird. Muslims try to combine these characteristics in order to correctly worship Allah.
Monique Jacobs, director of faith formation, Roman Catholic Diocese of Reno
Catholics believe that one of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit is fear of the Lord. Why would fear be considered gift, especially "fear" of God? Let's look deeper. Any connection with God can be understood as an extension of our relationships with others. The way I relate to others is the way I most likely relate to God. When I love someone, like them a lot, or want to get to know them better, I proceed with respect for them and pay attention to ways in which I might build up that relationship. Conversely, I am also aware of the ways in which I might harm that relationship. Fear of God is best understood in this light. When I am "fearful" of how I might taint, threaten or cripple my connection with God, this mysterious gift has a positive role in the way I live as a believer.
Jikai' Phil Bryan, Reno Buddhist Center priest and meditation guide
Fear, especially of death, is natural before our true nature is unveiled as eternal, joyous, selfless and pure. Fear can "discipline" the search for "wisdom" through education and diligent practice. Buddhism recognizes that fear might paralyze or may compel more diligent alignment with Dharma (universal law). Natural fear can be a useful teacher; love is better. Buddhism does not "use" but doesn't deny fearful suffering. We gain understanding through education, attention and meditation. Buddha's early "sight" of witnessing death led him to search for the end of fear and suffering. He redefined death and fear of death as misunderstandings of natural change. A controlling, fearful "God" is not part of Buddhism. We see the Cosmos without beginning or end, operating by natural law (Dharma), so fear cannot be viewed as "a gift from God." The Dharmakaya consoles all our fears.
Nicholas F. Frey, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints area public affairs director
The Old and New Testaments sometimes appear to encourage "fear of the Lord." The LDS Bible dictionary points out the true meanings of the words translated as "fear" are reverence, awe, respect and worship. An LDS leader declared, "Let us recognize fear comes not of God but rathe - this - destructive element comes from the adversary of truth and righteousness. Fear is the antithesis of faith. It is corrosive in its effects, even deadly." As we learn of God and draw closer, we find, as Paul said, "God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (2 Tim. 1:7). LDS president Spencer Kimball said, "Faith in God involves emotional closeness, a deep spiritual inner feeling of dependence and closeness; not a fear composed of panic and terror." For the believer, faith replaces fear.

Adrien Broner vs. Gavin Rees
2013-02-16 : Adrien Broner 134 lbs beat Gavin Rees 134½ lbs by TKO at 2:59 in round 5 of 12
- Location: Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA
- Referee: Earl Brown
- Judge: Eugene Grant
- Judge: John Keane
- Judge: Julie Lederman
- Ring Announcer: Michael Buffer
- Aired On: HBO World Championship Boxing (Main Event)
- World Boxing Council Lightweight Title (1st defense by Broner)
Adrien Broner defended his WBC Lightweight Title and cruised against a spirited, but outgunned Gavin Rees in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
A single, right uppercut put Rees on his back 55 seconds into Round 4. Rees was up at the count of five. Broner continued to pound away for the remainder of the round and prior to the start of the fifth Rees's trainer Gary Lockett suggested that they should stop the fight.
A left hand to the body in the final minute of Round 5, drew a grimace from Rees and sent him to a knee. Broner closed the round peppering Rees against the ropes causing Lockett to come up on the ring apron and wave the towel.
Rees gave a good effort and looked to take the fight to Broner early, but could not match Broner's power and accuracy.
- Adrien Broner 25-0 (21 KOs) vs. Gavin Rees 37-1-1 (18 KOs)
- Broner entered as the # 1 lightweight contender and the # 6 pound-for-pound in the world according to The Ring Magazine. Rees, a 14-to-1 betting underdog, was ranked 6th by the same publication. [1] [2]

A Response to a Black Student at Columbia
Two weeks ago, the Columbia University newspaper, the Spectator, published an article titled "Students, faculty address institutionalized racism at University Life event." As described in the article, one example of the institutionalized racism that black Columbia students must endure is the university's Core Curriculum. In the words of one of the panelists, fifth-year undergraduate student Nissy Aya, a young black woman, "It's traumatizing to sit in Core classes. We are looking at history through the lens of these powerful, white men. I have no power or...
American Universities Begin to Implode
For over half a century, American universities, with few exceptions, have ceased teaching and begun indoctrinating. In the last few weeks, this downhill spiral has accelerated. The university is now a caricature of an educational institution. It is difficult to come up with an idea or policy that is more absurd than the ideas and policies that now dominate American campuses. The University of California, once an elite public institution, now circulates a list of "microaggressions" that students and faculty must be careful to avoid lest they engage in racism and bigotry. Some...
The Left and the Attack on Paris
The left's reactions to the terror attack on Paris are in keeping with its tradition of getting almost everything wrong. Take Bernie Sanders, for example. At the Democratic presidential debate, one day after the Paris attack, the democratic socialist candidate made this observation about al-Qaida: "I would argue that the disastrous invasion of Iraq, something that I strongly opposed, has unraveled the region completely, and led to the rise of al-Qaida and to ISIS." That a U.S. senator, let alone a man running for president of the United States, believes that the...
Why I Am in Israel — and Why You Should Be
JERUSALEM — I want to explain why I am in Israel. I am in here with 450 American (and a German and a Canadian) listeners to my radio show. About 400 are non-Jews. We are here on a "Stand with Israel" tour organized by the syndicator of my radio show, the Salem Radio Network, and I am accompanied by my wife, my producer Allen Estrin and his wife, and my radio colleague Mike Gallagher. People frustrated with the direction of America and the direction of the world regularly ask: "What can I do to make any difference?" Here is one of the best answers I know: Visit...
Feminization of America Is Bad for the World
Last week the New York Times published an article, "Sweeping Away Gender-Specific Toys and Labels," that contained three sentences that explain one of the most important phenomena in American life. In discussing the increasing move to do away with gender-specific toys – something the New York Times approves of – the article quoted Tania Missad, the "director of global consumer insights" at one of the world's largest toy manufacturers, Mattel: "Mattel's research showed some differences in what girls and boys wanted in their action figures, Ms. Missad said. 'For boys...
The Democrats' Preoccupation with Inequality
If you want to understand today's Democratic Party, a word search of the Democrats' debate last week provides a pretty clear picture. Here is how many times key words were spoken: Wall Street: 23 Tax: 20 Inequality: 9 Wealthy: 7 Now, compare the number of times other national concerns were mentioned: ISIS: 4 Terror/ists/ism: 2 Defense: 2 Military (excluding Jim Webb): 1 Freedom: 1 Debt (national): 0 Liberty: 0 Strength: 0 Armed forces: 0 Islamist/Islamic: 0 Material inequality is the predominant concern of the Democratic Party. Indeed, material inequality has been the...
They Really Hate Ben Carson
The invective against Dr. Ben Carson coming from the left is extraordinary, even for the left. Now that Carson, one of the pre-eminent brain surgeons in America, has become a viable candidate for president, the left has labelled him everything awful it can come up with. One left-wing columnist, Charles Blow of The New York Times, even disparaged his intelligence. But there were two attacks made this past week that should be beyond the pale even for the left. The first was that Carson "blamed the victims" in the Roseburg, Oregon, community college mass murder. How did that...
The Right Does Have Answers on Guns, Mr. President
On the assumption that there are good and bad people on both the right and the left and that everyone is horrified by mass shootings, how is one to explain the great divide between right and left on the gun issue as it relates to these mass murders? Why does the left focus on more gun control laws, and why doesn't the right? One reason is quintessentially American. Most Americans believe that it is their right — and even their duty — to own guns for self-protection. Unique among major democratic and industrialized nations, Americans have traditionally believed in relying...
Is a National Identity Necessary? Left-Right Differences, Part IX
In 2011, after 899 issues and 73 years of publication, Superman, the most famous American comic book character, announced that he was renouncing his American citizenship. "I intend to speak before the United Nations tomorrow and inform them that I am renouncing my U.S. citizenship," Superman announces. He then adds, in reference to his famous motto: "Truth, justice and the American way — it's not enough anymore." After a national uproar, the comic publisher announced that this theme would not be revisited in any future edition of the comic. But an important...
Europe Is Making a Fatal Mistake
Allowing millions of Syrians and others from the Muslim Middle East into Europe will end up a catastrophe for Europe, and therefore for the West. This may be the most difficult sentence I have ever written. Little seems more obviously moral than to allow these benighted Syrians, Iraqis and others to flee from hell into heaven. Therefore, arguing against allowing large numbers of them into Europe (and the United States) seems to be advocating for something that is heartless and just morally wrong. Also, as a Jew, I am particularly sensitive to any parallels to the Holocaust. And looking at...

FARGO, N.D. (AP) — While Congress continues debating a law that could give American Indian tribes more authority to prosecute domestic violence cases, a reservation that straddles the Dakotas is getting a boost in public safety.
Standing Rock is one of four reservations in the United States awarded grant money from the U.S. Department of Justice to hire a special federal prosecutor for cases involving violence against women, which government authorities say has reached epidemic proportions in Indian country.
William Zuger, the reservation's chief judge for the last six years, called it a creative move while Congress is stalled on the Violence Against Women Act, or VAWA. One part of the law would allow tribes to pursue misdemeanor domestic and dating violence cases and conceivably stop the abuse before it escalates.
"It's a rather innovative way to get around the jurisdictional gaps," Zuger said. "Frankly, it's quite remarkable."
The contract, approved last week by the Standing Rock tribal council, gives the tribe $450,000 over three years for salary, travel, training and expenses. Other grants went to Pueblo of Laguna in New Mexico, Fort Belknap Tribe in Montana, and Winnebago Tribe in Nebraska.
Charles Murphy, Standing Rock tribal chairman, did not respond to The Associated Press' repeated requests for an interview. The reservation stretches from southern North Dakota to central South Dakota.
Zuger said the success of the pilot program will be measured by the impact it has on the recurrence of domestic violence. He cited figures by the National Network to End Domestic Violence that show a 63 percent reduction in domestic violence on reservations between 1994 — when VAWA was passed — and 2000.
"The fact is, aggressive prosecution has been demonstrated to be highly effective," the judge said.
The act is up for renewal this year but has stalled as the U.S. Senate and House argue over whether the bill should spell out protections for immigrants, Native Americans and gays.
Justice Department figures show that an American Indian woman born in the United States has a 1-in-3 chance of being sexually assaulted in her lifetime, compared with 1-in-5 for the country as a whole. Women on some reservations are murdered at a rate more than 10 times the national average, according to a federal study of death certificates.
Timothy Purdon, the U.S. attorney from North Dakota, called the grant a landmark agreement that shows the relationship between the tribe and federal prosecutors from two states. The new assistant U.S. attorney will be able to pursue domestic violence cases in both federal and tribal courts.
"This is a place where these dollars will be put to good use because Standing Rock has worked hard to strengthen its tribal court system over the years," Purdon said.
Page 2 of 2 - Standing Rock's court system is considered better than most tribal operations, partly because the tribe provides public defenders and defendants do not have to prove they are too poor to afford one. That legal representation allows Zuger to hand out maximum sentences of three years, compared to one year on most reservations.
"I have no problem putting people away, but it's got to be done fairly," Zuger said. "They have the right to be properly defended, because they're going to jail."
A recent ruling by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals allows federal prosecutors to use domestic violence convictions in tribal court to charge someone as a habitual domestic offender. Kerby St. John, a Standing Rock council member, was convicted under that statute last month.
"Our approach to addressing domestic violence in tribal communities is firm and uncompromising," said Brendan Johnson, U.S. attorney for South Dakota. "We will use every tool at our disposal to stop it."

If you've already read the headline of this post, you can pretty much skip the rest. The iRiver N12 pendant MP3 player looks a lot like the N11, with the main change being that the new version has headphones integrated into the lanyard, N10-style. It also apparently starts at 1GB capacity, while that's where the N11 maxed out. We assume it will continue to support MP3, WMA and PlaysForSure, like earlier models in the series. Oh, and it'll be about
W198,000 ($209), and will probably never be released in the US.
There, aren't you glad you read the whole post?

Christmas is over. It's sad.
I stinking rocked Christmas this year. I mean, I feel like I squeezed all the juicy goodness out of it instead of being cynical and apathetic. Which is actually a pretty big deal. For me.
And as I've reflected on how much I enjoyed "the holidays" this year I stumbled upon a realization. I've become selfish. Okay, I was probably always selfish. But over the last few years I think I became . . . selfisher.
I can remember a time in my life when I was generous and others-minded. I'm not sure why I slowly sulked away from that disposition, but I did.
This Christmas reawakened in me the desire to create. I created coffee filter wreaths and picture ornaments and sugar scrubs and cookie butter. There's something so life-giving about creating. I miss it.
Christmas also reminded me how much fun it is to give. I know this must seem SO OBVIOUS and I guess that's because it is. But the old adage is true; it's more blessed to give than to receive. We have received SO much these last few years. It's been an amazing journey of providence and generosity. And I guess I just want to give back now.
So between the creating and the giving, December pretty much rocked. And I determined to bring that into the new year.
I could not decide if I wanted my "One Word" for 2015 to be "give" or "create". So I came up with a combination of the two:
Fourteen years ago when I was a newlywed my mother-in-law taught me the very most basic of crochet stitches. I took that new skill and made what has been affectionately referred to since then as the Ugly Christmas Blanket.
I. love. Ugly Christmas Blanket. Not because it's pretty, because it ain't. I love it because I MADE it. Like, with my own two hands. Also because it's soft and warm and a part of our Christmas tradition now. Every year I pull it out of the box of random Christmas stuff and remember a time when I created.
After making Ugly Christmas Blanket 14 years ago I put away my crochet hook never to pick it up again. I also promptly forgot the little I knew. I could not tell you how I made it. If you handed me a crochet hook I could use it as a makeshift weapon, at best.
So as my desire to create and give grew inside of me through the holidays I decided to learn. So on, literally, New Years Day I took a little trip with a friend to the closest craft store and stocked up on needles and yarn and can-do spirit.
And after a few days of practice and mistakes and youtube and my brain melting a little bit, I CREATED SOMETHING.
An infinity scarf. And a tiny hipster.
I used this double crochet infinity scarf pattern that I found on Pinterest. Because obviously I have a crochet board on Pinterest now.
Crocheting is making me SO happy. Even when I have to unravel everything after an hour. Even the practice is satisfying. And the giving and creating possibilities make just want to do a little generosity jig. (That sounds like a great band name. Generosity Jig, coming to a hipster venue near you).
So there you have it, my One Word, or three.
Did you do a One Word for 2015?
Do you crochet? Do you have a favorite crochet blog? Can you SEND ME ALL THE LINKS?

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. (WKYT) - A southern Kentucky jail is hosting a picnic this weekend for inmates and their family and friends. But it won't be all about food and fun.
This picnic comes with a twist, and the Laurel County jailer hopes it will motivate inmates to get back on the right track.
The inmate population inside the Laurel County Detention Center is currently about 400. Like any other jail, families can visit loved ones behind bars. But Jailer Jamie Mosley wants to take it a step further. He is trying a new idea by inviting family, friends, and inmates together for a summertime picnic.
This Saturday inmates will gather here in the sally port. At about 30 at a time, they will have a chance to get out their cell, eat hotdogs, hamburgers, and see their loved ones. But the key word is 'see.' The jailer says the inmates can only watch the fun and games from inside the sally port. They can't touch or converse with family.
"It's to create a situation where they're challenged in the future that they flash back to that and remember what they we're missing," said Jailer Jamie Mosley, with the Laurel County Detention Center.
Not everybody thinks this idea will be 100 percent positive. But one inmate, Thomas Lawson who is in for meth charges, sees this as an opportunity for his daughter to learn a lot.
"She can go over here to me you know because of what I've done hopefully this an eye opener to my daughter not to follow in my foot steps where I've been," said Thomas Lawson, an inmate at the Laurel County Detention Center.
In the end, Mosely hopes this unconventional idea will teach his inmates how normal life should be with family and not in jail.
The picnic is this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the jail. Mosley says all the food and games will be donated.

Seaflower Resort
Pink bungalows in a seaside garden
What we say:
Set in the exact spot where Lonely Beach first rose to backpacker glory thanks to the now long-gone Treehouse Bungalows, Seaflower has a big cluster of pink concrete bungalows overlooking a lovely seafront garden. Set towards the back of the grounds and tightly packed together, the cheapest rooms are basic, with wall-mounted fan, firm bed, mosquito net, hot water bathroom and porch. Though these are passable, you'll find better options closer to the main drag. Some built to look like mini-castles, air-con rooms are similarly bland but come with TVs and fridges and offer decent value. Sea view rooms are the same price as those further back, so be sure to ask for one up front. The staff was nonexistent while we hung around reception for 15 minutes, but a young man was super friendly once he finally appeared. He wouldn't give us a phone number and the resort has no website, so either walk in or book through Agoda. Nearby, Sunset Huts has smaller, similarly priced lime green concrete bungalows -- some with wood platforms perched near the sea. We found these two spots to be comparable, but Seaflower's seafront garden and better value air-con rooms made it the winner.

Hi I posted on the forum a few months ago and everyone was so so helpful, and I'm greatful for that. I haven't thought of the holiday since!! In saying that we are ready to fly out to Turkey in a months time so thinking about it again.......
There are 4 of us travelling and we have 13 FULL days to play with in Turkey...we are jammin in a lot...here it goes
Option 1
Istanbul, we want to do a day trip to Gallopoli (we know its a long day)
Goreme for Cappadocia
Selcuk for Ephesus
Option 2
Overnighter in Gallopoli
Selcuk for Ephesus
Goreme for Cappadocia
Antalya or Fethiye
So my question is....how many nights per place would you reccommend?? And which option looks better in the order I have mentioned the towns?? I know each to their own, but we are havin trouble deciding how long to stay in each place for, and we want to decide so we can book internal flights
By reading other forum posts you guys reccommend to book these flights in advance rather than waiting till a few days prior..is that right....is it too risky to wait price and availability wise??
Have already looked into flights and over night bus options..will post questions about that once this bit gets clarified
Thanks heaps again

Few clues expected fron gunman's bodyComment on this story
Hartford, Connecticut - Connecticut's chief medical examiner says he doubts genetic analysis of the body of the gunman who fatally shot 20 children and six adults at a school last month will explain his actions.
Dr. H. Wayne Carver II autopsied the body of the gunman Adam Lanza and said an examination of Lanza's brain showed nothing unusual.
Carver told The Hearst Connecticut Media Group that the testing was a "fishing expedition."
Carver said Lanza's brain showed no tumor or gross deformity, though he didn't expect to find one.
"That would be associated with very severe disabilities," he said.
A toxicology exam, which could take several weeks, involves testing body fluids for psychiatric medications or illegal substances. Carver said the result could provide "potentially valuable information" in creating a full picture of Lanza.
The 20-year-old Lanza fatally shot himself after the December 14 attack.
Lanza's body was claimed by his father on Dec. 27, and the public may never know what happened with the remains. - Sapa-AP

Business in the Real World
Picture a tennis court. Thwack! A ball crosses the net. Thwack! It zooms back across the net, perhaps with a spin you weren't expecting, and takes an unpredictable bounce. That's the way things often work in business, and one of those unpredictable bounces was what steered Mike Larson into the practice of law. "I had an MBA in transportation and was working for a big company down in California. Then Jimmy Carter deregulated the whole industry. Bam! My company was going to shut down the Los Angeles office and move everyone to Dallas. The University of Oregon was willing to apply some of my MBA transportation credits toward law school, so it was off to law school."
The contrast between the regulated world of transportation at that time and the entrepreneurial approach required to succeed in business was what kindled his interest. "The transportation industry had been stuck in a technical world of rules and regulations. It's a whole little world of 'don't do this; don't do that.' The business world is the exact opposite. People want to get things done. They'll get advice, weigh the risks, then make a decision and do what it takes to succeed." After getting his law degree and moving back to his Seattle roots in the mid-'80s, Mike was busy doing transactional law, including a few divorces. "I don't do divorces any more, but it gave me a good grounding in how community property laws can affect a business. It's the same when partners fall out of favor with each other. It gave me good experience to handle tough situations with a broad-based approach."
Innovation in Practice
His own entrepreneurial instincts prompted Mike to consider starting his own practice in 1997. His partners have nicknamed him "the Rain Maker." He admits that seeing the impact of changes in the transportation industry of the 1980s prepared him to stay tuned as the wave of computerization rolled through the business world in the '90s. "I had started in a paper world, cutting and pasting contracts together, writing comments in the margins and then having them retyped. The business world was changing rapidly. I thought it was a good time to take the risk, use those productivity tools in the legal profession and start a practice our own way."
Going through that risk and challenge has made Mike very appreciative of the work he does for his clients. "It's really rewarding working with smart people dealing with exciting challenges. I love what I do. It's a good life."
One of the most gratifying parts of building a successful practice is the amount of new business referred to LHS by current clients. "It's great that we have a reputation of integrity. Many of our clients are referred to us from people or companies that we have worked for in the past and how have been pleased with our services." Mike compares legal services to putting on your seat belt when you get in your car: "You want to avoid a risk that you can't see right now. It's important to get your business set up correctly right from the start. We can start from zero documentation through incorporations and partnerships. Then there are outside factors like vendor relations, payment disputes, warranty issues, leases and real estate transactions that need to be clear and specific up front so they don't come back and give you unforeseen problems later."
Community Involvement
With the energy that drives him around the tennis court, Mike and his wife of 27 years Barbara are extremely active in the community with a long volunteer list that includes Casa Latina and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. That outlook carries over to the firm's goal of being a positive force in the community by allocating time, resources and talent to volunteer legal work. "We're working really hard to build a legacy of respect. We have a great staff and everyone's door is always open. It makes us feel good when we hear from a client 'We're so glad we chose Larson Hart & Shepherd to do our business legal work…it allowed us to quickly end a dispute and we prevailed.'"
Professional Details
Mike Larson is admitted to practice in the State of Washington, United States District Court for the Western and Eastern District of Washington and of Federal Claims, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. He also provides a full range of Estate Planning services, from initial consultations, document drafting, final preparations and document execution, to semi-annual reviews to accommodate any significant changes to your estate or financial situation.

Senate President Don Gaetz got a lot of attention last week for his characteristically quotable defense of the Common Core State Standards:
"You can't dip them in milk and hold them over a candle and see the United Nations flag or Barack Obama's face," he said, according to the News Service of Florida. "They're not some federal conspiracy."
There's some history behind Gaetz's rhetoric that sheds light on how legislative leaders view the current Common Core controversy (and that will be worth keeping in mind today when the state Board of Education reviews the thousands of public comments that ...
