Target Lures Black Friday Shoppers with Target Gift Cards

Not only does Target boast many different Door Busters, it also proclaims the ability to shop online starting on Thanksgiving Day.
Best Buy has just released its catalog of deals for their Black Friday bash and with it tons of deals on games, consoles, accessories, figures, and even eshop cards.
If you take a quick look at the calendar, you'll notice that Thanksgiving is still over two weeks away, yet that hasn't stopped two California women from lining up for Best Buy's Thanksgiving Day sale.
Vinyl fanatics, brace yourselves: We've just landed on a wealth of information regarding special releases for RSD's Black Friday.
As the unofficial mascot of the Marvel cinematic universe (he's pretty much Mickey Mouse to this corner of the Disney empire), Downey Jr.'s words and opinions feel like they carry a lot of weight. So when he chimes in with a comment that's essentially "Yeah, there really should be a female-led superhero movie, huh?", we can't help but feel slightly vindicated for wondering where the heck a 'Black Widow' or even a 'Captain Marvel' movie is.
The more I watch Iggy Azalea's videos and performances on TV, the more I think she reminds me of someone.
Iggy Azalea graced the 'TODAY Show' with her presence this morning, strutting up and down the stage performing her mega-hit 'Fancy' as well as another killer track, 'Work'.
If you haven't checked out Dare Dayclub & Ultra pool yet, you are missing out big time. It's all new at Horseshoe Casino, and it's certainly something the SBC needed!
Perfoming live for this Splash Saturday and Sunday is (June 21) is Taboo from The Black Eyed Peas and beatboxer Biz Markie.
Superstar Austin Mahone took over Rockefeller Plaza this morning on NBC's 'The Today Show' in front of a crowd of screaming fans. Mahone performed three songs including the live debut of the track 'Shadow' off his EP 'The Secret,' which drops tomorrow, May 27. The pop star also performed his hits 'What About Love' and 'Mmm Yeah.'
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West made sure that no unauthorized photos of their wedding leaked out, as each guest had to check in their cell phone before Saturday's ceremony in Florence, Italy. But they didn't stop their guests from having a little fun at the wedding dinner. The couple installed a black and white photo booth for their guests and several guests took the opportunity to snap a few memories and get goofy. Take a look at some of the Instagram shots that people uploaded to their profiles, including some from Kendall Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Big Sean and more.
What's not to like about Justin Timberlake? He can sing, he can act, and he's totally hilarious. Crushing on JT is as easy as breathing.
We giggled when Jason Derulo said we were in his head, swooned when he took us to the other side, but once he talked dirty to us, we were smitten with our man crush Monday.

Proposed facility could suck Ireland's power and flood its golf links, say objectors
Apple's proposal to build a data center campus costing up to $950 million (€850m) in County Galway will face a hearing by the local planning board, as objectors raise fears that it would flood golf course, and make inordinate demands on Ireland's power grid. Meanwhile the EU is investigating the Irish government's tax deal with the consumer electronics giant.
Apple applied to build a data center in Derrydonnell Forest, Athenry a year ago (April 2015), and had provisional approval in September, subject to appeals. The proposal is for one hall, with plans to extend this to eight buildings. Initial objections claimed that the proposal would harm wildlife and create noise and traffic, while further comments fear it could increase flooding of greens at Athenry Golf Club. Apple has responded confidently to all of them.

Bring it on
"We welcome the opportunity to address any additional questions An Bord Pleanála may have," Apple said in a statement to the Irish Independent. "The planning process is an important way for everyone to have their say and we've made every effort to incorporate the feedback we've received."
This will be Apple's "greenest data centre yet", the spokesman said. It will blend with its surroundings, and will run on 100 percent renewable energy.
There is no date set for the oral hearing at the Galway planning board (An Bord Pleanála), but the process is supposed to be complete by June.
Apple has asked to build one 24,500sqm (260,000 sq ft) hall, in Derrydonnell forest, an area currently used to grow non-native trees. The company proposes that it may eventually build up to eight halls on the site, over the next fifteen years, which would take up virtually the whole of the forest, with the borders replanted using native species.
The full proposal would reduce the habitat of bats and badgers, say some objections, and the Bord has also received a complaint from Athenry Golf Club, 1km away from the site.

Flood and power drain
"Our primary concern is the totality of the proposed development, especially the extent of the proposed masterplan, and the potential this has to alter the hydrology of the local area and potentially increase the frequency and duration of flooding already experienced at the golf club," says the golf club's appeal, as reported in Business Insider.
Apple's original proposal considered floods, with a report from Ove Arup concluding that "the risk of fluvial flooding of the site is considered to be very low, as there are no watercourses on the site or in close proximity to the site. The site is located in Flood Zone C i.e. outside the 1 in 1000 year fluvial flood extent. Therefore, a Justification Test for the proposed development is not required."
Another appeal calculates that, if all eight halls are built, the complex would increase Ireland's electricity consumption by more than 8 percent. of Ireland's electricity. The first hall would use 30MW, but if all halls were built, the site would need 240MW. That works out at around seven percent of Ireland's total electric power capacity of 3.5GW, but engineer Allan Daly points out that data centers operate continuously so the actual energy usage would be a higher proportion: "It is safe to say that Apple's data centre will be the largest single user of electricity within the Republic of Ireland, by far."
Readers' comments (2)
Ireland is already one the European countries being most dependent on power import. This import is non-renewable. As you know, the longer the power travels the more is lost in the grid on the way to support Ireland. How much is the environment going to pay for Apple´s unstoppable appetite for tax incentives? Carving out local renewable energy by introducing a greater need for power is not going to help Ireland in its quest to improve its share of renewables in the grid.
N01 Campus outside Kristiansand in South Norway can accommodate more power than all of Ireland from 97,8 % renewable. It is designed to accommodate the power hungry growth of the data centre industry. It is already adjacent to one of the World´s most resilient power stations with 3,6 GW installed from 12 different feeds. With latency of 12 ms to UK and 6 ms to Germany and the most cost efficient power price in Europe we hope the environment gets another thought.

Merri was sewing the binding on Civil War Bride (pattern by Corliss Searcy).

And here is a little peak at the beautiful quilting done on it by our dear friend, Helen Hayes.

PE-backed Magma Fincorp acquires Religare Finvest's auto lease business
Magma Fincorp Ltd (MFL) has acquired the Rs 250 crore auto lease business portfolio from Religare Finvest, a subsidiary of Religare Enterprises Ltd (REL). The firm, however, did not disclose the financial details of the transaction.
The news comes coupled with the completion of the previously announced acquisition of GE Money Housing Finance (GEMHF), an affiliate of GE Capital India and engaged in the housing finance business in the country.
Sanjay Chamria, vice-chairman and managing director of Magma Fincorp, said, "The acquisition will significantly help our fledgling auto lease business that we have recently launched. With this acquisition, Magma has got over 80 large corporate houses with more than 4,500 individual car customers. It will help expand its bouquet of offerings."
With this move, Magma will establish itself not only as a serious car finance player for the corporate sector but will also cater to that sector's requirements for other assets like IT systems, hardware and equipment, added Chamria. The company will also provide working capital loans as part of its SME offerings and expand its franchise.
In November 2012, Magma Fincorp signed definitive agreements for the acquisition of 100 per cent equity share capital of GE Money Housing Finance. That acquisition will also help Magma Fincorp gain access to around 10,000 existing customers. The total loan portfolio is estimated at Rs 1,320 crore, which also includes the home equity portfolio of GE Money Financial Service Pvt Ltd.
Kolkata-based NBFC Magma's entry into the housing finance space is an extension of its existing business that revolves around financing of utility vehicles, cars, commercial vehicles, construction equipment, tractors and SME loans. It is backed by the private equity giant KKR and also by IFC, the private sector investment arm of World Bank.

Red | Ready, but will keep | Ch. Haut-Beychevelle de Gloria | Code: 25366 | 2012 | France > Bordeaux > St Julien | Cab.Sauvignon Blend | Medium-Full Bodied, Dry | 13.0 % alcohol
Made for us by Ch. Haut-Beychevelle Gloria in the very heart of St Julien, this 2012 is a typical Bordeaux blend. Vinified traditionally and aged for 12 months in oak barriques, the wine is beautifully constructed. With a vivid crimson colour, pure cassis and tobacco leaf on the nose, the palate is a cascade of jammy blackberry and raspberry fruit, with a rounded hint of vanilla on the finish. Light on its feet, medium-bodied and tremendously elegant, we suggest that you serve with lamb or roast pork, and drink now or over the next two years.
With a focus on provenance, these superlative bottles are classified by commune and highlight the fruitful collaborations between the producers and buyers, creating wines with superb finesse.. Whether from Pomerol or Meusault, Barolo or Gevrey-Chambertin, the design of each label references its region of origin, prominently displaying both the name of the estate and the signature of the buyer.

The Producer
Château Haut-Beychevelle de Gloria has been owned by the Martin family for more than three centuries, and is considered to be their most historic property. The family also owns four other chateaux in the Beychevelle region : Château Saint-Pierre, Château Gloria, Château Bel Air, Château Peymartin.
The Martin Family have occupied various positions over the years; farmers, cellar masters, coopers; all linked to viticulture. The small five hectare vineyard at Château Haut-Beychevelle de Gloria has vines of an average age of thirty, and is located in the heart of the Saint-Julien appellation.
The grapes include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc and are handpicked and fermented in traditional heat-regulated stainless steel containers. The wine is aged for twelve months in casks for depth and complexity of flavour.
Other wines by this producer:
The Grape
Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% (Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.
In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
The Region
St Julien is the smallest of the "Big Four" Médoc communes. Although, without any First Growths, St Julien is recognised to be the most consistent of the main communes, with several châteaux turning out impressive wines year after year.
St Julien itself is much more of a village than Pauillac and almost all of the notable properties lie to its south. Its most northerly château is Ch. Léoville Las Cases (whose vineyards actually adjoin those of Latour in Pauillac) but, further south, suitable vineyard land gives way to arable farming and livestock until the Margaux appellation is reached.
The soil is gravelly and finer than that of Pauillac, and without the iron content which gives Pauillac its stature. The homogeneous soils in the vineyards (which extend over a relatively small area of just over 700 hectares) give the commune a unified character.
The wines can be assessed as much by texture as flavour, and there is a sleek, wholesome character to the best. Elegance, harmony and perfect balance and weight, with hints of cassis and cedar, are what epitomise classic St Julien wines. At their very best they combine Margaux's elegance and refinement with Pauillac's power and substance.
Ch. Léoville Las Cases produces arguably the most sought-after St Julien, and in any reassessment of the 1855 Classification it would almost certainly warrant being elevated to First Growth status.
Recommended Châteaux: Ch. Léoville Las Cases, Ch.Léoville Barton, Ch Léoville Poyferré, Ch. Ducru-Beaucaillou, Ch Langoa Barton, Ch Gruaud Larose, Ch. Branaire-Ducru, Ch. Beychevelle

Larry Burnett, et al., Plaintiffs,v.American Federation of Government Employees, Defendant
For LARRY BURNETT, STATUS CONTROL, INC., Plaintiffs: James S. Liskow, LEAD ATTORNEY, DECARO, DORAN, SICILIANO, GALLAGHER & DEBLASIS, LLP, Bowie, MD.
For AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, Defendant: Gony Frieder Goldberg, AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, Washington, DC.
Amit P. Mehta, United States District Judge.
Plaintiff Larry Burnett is an African American man and owner of Plaintiff Status Controls, Inc., a corporation that provided electrician services to Defendant American Federation of Government Employees (" AFGE" ). Burnett and Status Controls filed suit against AFGE, alleging that AFGE subjected them to racial discrimination and a hostile work environment in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, 42 U.S.C. § 1981. Status Controls also asserted claims of breach of contract, conversion, and tortious interference with contract and business relations. Burnett asserted an additional claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress. Before the court is Defendant's Second Motion to Dismiss all six counts in Plaintiffs' First Amended Complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6).
For the reasons stated below, the court denies Defendant's motion as to all counts, except the two Section 1981 claims against Burnett.
Plaintiffs' First Amended Complaint alleges the following. Burnett, an African American man and resident of Maryland, is the owner and chief operating officer of Status Controls, Inc. (" Status" ), a Maryland corporation. Am. Compl., ECF No. 8 ¶ ¶ 1-2, 5-6. On November 3, 2011, AFGE retained Status to repair and test the elevators at its principal office in Washington, D.C., on " a time and materials basis." Id. ¶ ¶ 3, 9, 13-14. " Upon completion of the work to the elevators," AFGE retained Status " to perform various other tasks on a time and materials basis," including running cables, repairing back-up generators, removing chiller units, and renovating utility rooms. Id. ¶ 15.
A. Alleged Workplace Hostility Because of Race
In late August 2012, AFGE employees began discriminating against Burnett and other Status employees because they were African American. Id. ¶ 16. AFGE had retained Status to run feeder cables--a type of electrical wiring--to " chiller," or cooling, units that were to be installed on the premises. Id. ¶ 17. Because Status was completing the work, " [t]he building's chief engineer, a white man, explained to the project manager, another white man, that the feeder cables should not be added to the renovation[.]" Id. ¶ 18. The project manager replied to the chief engineer " you don't wants [sic] those black people doing that work for you." Id. ¶ 19 (internal quotation marks omitted).
In September 2012, a white woman employed by AFGE confronted Burnett and another African American Status employee and asked " you people are still here?" Id. ¶ 21 (internal quotation marks omitted). Later that month, the same AFGE employee again approached Burnett and asked " you black people are still here?" Id. ¶ 22 (internal quotation marks omitted).
In late September or early October 2012, AFGE employees discussed how management did not like having Status or Burnett on site " due to Burnett's race." Id. ¶ 23. Around the same time, AFGE's project manager told another AFGE employee " [t]hats [sic] what you get with them black people working here," referring to Status' workers. Id. ¶ 24 (internal quotation marks omitted).
Also, in September 2012, the National Secretary/Treasurer of AFGE, an African American man, was assigned to oversee the AFGE offices in Washington, D.C. Id. ¶ 28. The National Secretary/Treasurer called a meeting with the project manager, the chief engineer, and Burnett, where he explained that he was " the project manager's new boss and he did not want to see him going to the National President to complain about his new supervisor." Id. ¶ 29. After the National Secretary/Treasurer left the meeting, the project manager referred to the National Secretary/Treasurer as " one stupid n****." Id. ¶ 30 (internal quotation marks omitted). Approximately two months later, the National Secretary/Treasurer told Burnett and another African American Status employee that Burnett and Status should be " alert" as " [t]hese white people don't like you and are out to get you because you're black. Watch yourself." Id. ¶ 27 (internal quotation marks omitted). He further told Burnett that Burnett " was the only minority contractor [who was permitted] to work at the subject building." Id.
In December 2012, AFGE asked Status to provide an estimate for a project to upgrade AFGE's security system. Id. ¶ 34. Sometime later in December 2012, AFGE representatives notified Burnett that Status had not delivered the upgrade in a timely manner. Id. ¶ 35. According to Plaintiffs, this was " incorrect as the upgrade had not been ordered." Id. During the same meeting, AFGE representatives told Burnett to conduct his operations at night so that he and his " contract employees [would] be kept out of sight" because " all of Status' contract employees were black" and " their status as such scared people." Id. ¶ 36. Other employees of contractors and subcontractors working on the renovation, however, all of whom were white, were visible to the public and to AFGE management. Id. ¶ 37.
B. Contract Interference and Termination
On January 1, 2013, AFGE and Status entered into a commercial agreement for independent contractor services. Id. ¶ 40. Shortly thereafter, AFGE employees " conspired to terminate Status from its work, claiming that Burnett and the chief engineer conspired to steal copper in the disposal of the chiller units," even though industry standards required removal and disposal of the units. Id. ¶ 41. AFGE " without cause" terminated its contract with Status and refused to pay Status for work performed or for materials purchased on behalf of AFGE. Id. ¶ ¶ 42-44. In addition, AFGE refused to return Status' tools and equipment. Id. ¶ 44.
Moreover, after terminating the contract, AFGE initiated a campaign to blame Status for the negligence of others. Id. ¶ 45. In October 2012, Status began installing piping in the building's elevator shafts. Id. ¶ 25. As part of this project, Status arranged for a pringle switch[1] expert to perform certain maintenance tasks that Status was not qualified to perform. Id. ¶ ¶ 25-26. Apparently, the pringle switch failed or malfunctioned, causing an explosion in the elevator shaft. Id. ¶ 45. Because of " Burnett's race and AFGE's status as a minority-owned business," AFGE blamed Status for the explosion, even though it knew that " this explosion was caused by another contractor." Id. ¶ 45. AFGE further expressed its racial animus by filing a claim with its insurance company that wrongly attributed fault to Status for the pringle switch explosion. Id. ¶ 45. As a result of the false claim, Status had to respond to a subrogation claim and " its relations with its own insurance carrier have been interfered with and will potentially result in [an] increased premium and a different insurance rating[.]" Id. ¶ 83.
Pursuant to the Supreme Court's decisions in Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007), and Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009), a complaint must contain " sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678 (emphasis added) (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 570) (internal quotation marks omitted). A claim is facially plausible when " the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Id. (emphasis added) (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556). Factual allegations that are " merely consistent with a defendant's liability . . . stops short of the line between possibility and plausibility of entitlement to relief." Id. (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 557) (internal quotation marks omitted). While the factual allegations need not be " detailed," the Federal Rules demand more than " an unadorned, the-defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation." Id. (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555). " Threadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements, do not suffice." Id. (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555).
When assessing a motion to dismiss based on Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), the court must accept Plaintiff's factual allegations as true and " construe the complaint in favor of the plaintiff, who must be granted the benefit of all inferences that can be derived from the facts alleged." Hettinga v. United States, 677 F.3d 471, 476, 400 U.S.App.D.C. 218 (D.C. Cir. 2012) (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted); accord Singh v. District of Columbia, 881 F.Supp.2d 76, 81 (D.D.C. 2012). The court shall not " accept inferences drawn by [the] plaintiff if those inferences are not supported by the facts set out in the complaint, nor must the court accept legal conclusions cast as factual allegations." Hettinga, 677 F.3d at 476 (citations omitted).
A. Violations of 42 U.S.C. § 1981 (Counts III and IV)
Title 42 U.S.C. § 1981 protects the right of " [a]ll persons within the jurisdiction of the United States" to " make and enforce contracts . . ." without respect to race. 42 U.S.C.A § 1981(a) (2014). The current version of the statute defines " make and enforce contracts" to " include[] the making, performance, modification, and termination of contracts, and the enjoyment of all benefits, privileges, terms, and conditions of the contractual relationship." 42 U.S.C.A § 1981(b) (2014). Any claim brought under section 1981 " must initially identify an impaired 'contractual relationship' . . . under which the plaintiff has rights." Domino's Pizza v. McDonald, 546 U.S. 470, 476, 126 S.Ct. 1246, 163 L.Ed.2d 1069 (2006) (footnote omitted). Both Burnett and Status allege that AFGE subjected them to disparate treatment discrimination and a hostile work environment in violation of Section 1981. See Am. Compl., Counts III and IV at 8-9.
The parties' briefing has narrowed the issues the court must address concerning the Section 1981 claims. Burnett concedes that because AFGE's contract was with Status--not with him personally--he does not have cognizable Section 1981 claims. Pl.s' Opp., ECF No. 10 at 3. Burnett's Section 1981 claims, therefore, are dismissed with prejudice. In addition, although AFGE's motion seeks dismissal of " all of the causes of action in the complaint," Mot. to Dismiss, ECF No. 9, AFGE has not specifically articulated why Status' disparate treatment count fails to state a claim. See Def.'s Mem. in Supp. of Second Mot. to Dismiss, ECF No. 9-1 (hereinafter Def.'s Mem.). Because " [it] is not the court's role to fill in the blanks in counsel's argument," The Power Co. of America v. FERC, 245 F.3d 839, 845, 345 U.S.App.D.C. 331 (D.C. Cir. 2001), and because Defendant has not specified an argument to support dismissal, the court does not consider Defendant to have moved to dismiss Status' disparate treatment claim, see Cement Kiln Recycling Coal. v. EPA, 255 F.3d 855, 869, 347 U.S.App.D.C. 127 (D.C. Cir. 2001) (per curiam) (" A litigant does not properly raise an issue by addressing it in a 'cursory fashion' with only 'bare-bones arguments.'" ) (quoting Wash. Legal Clinic for the Homeless v. Barry, 107 F.3d 32, 39, 323 U.S.App.D.C. 219 (D.C. Cir. 1997)) (other citations omitted). Thus, the only Section 1981 claim that remains for the court's consideration is Status' hostile work environment claim.
As to that claim, AFGE advances only a narrow argument. It contends that Status has failed to state a claim because it has not alleged any harm to itself that is separate and distinct from the " emotional harm and suffering of Mr. Burnett." Def.'s Mem. at 7. The court disagrees. In Gersman v. Group Health Association, the Court of Appeals held that a corporation whose contract was severed " solely because an individual associated with [the corporation] was Jewish" could bring a Section 1981 claim because " the injury suffered by the plaintiff [corporation] falls within the zone of interests protected by the statute[.]" 931 F.2d 1565, 1569, 289 U.S.App.D.C. 332 (D.C. Cir. 1991), vacated on other grounds, 502 U.S. 1068, 112 S.Ct. 960, 117 L.Ed.2d 127 (1992), reinstated 975 F.2d 886, 298 U.S.App.D.C. 23 (D.C. Cir. 1992). Similarly here, Status has alleged harm separate and apart from its owner, Burnett. Status claims that the hostile work environment its employees experienced caused it to " [lose] and . . . continue to lose business" and that it has " lost and will continue to lose the benefit of [its] bargain with AFGE[.]" Am. Compl. ¶ 68. It remains to be seen whether Status can assemble proof of separate injury to prevail at trial or at summary judgment. At this stage, however, when the court must treat as true the allegations in the complaint and draw all reasonable inferences in a plaintiff's favor, Status' allegation of separate harm is sufficient to overcome AFGE's motion. Cf. Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 561, 112 S.Ct. 2130, 119 L.Ed.2d 351 (1992) (stating with respect to establishing standing that, " [a]t the pleading stage, general factual allegations of injury resulting from the defendant's conduct may suffice" ). Defendant's motion to dismiss with respect to Count IV is therefore denied.
B. State Law Claims
Next, Defendant contends that Plaintiffs have failed to adequately plead their state law claims. The court turns first to Burnett's claim for intentional infliction for emotional distress (Count V), and then considers Status' claims for breach of contract (Count I), conversion (Count II), and tortious interference with contracts and business relations (Count VI).
1. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress (Count V)
To establish a claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress, a plaintiff must show " (1) extreme and outrageous conduct on the part of the defendant which (2) intentionally or recklessly (3) causes the plaintiff severe emotional distress." D.C. v. Tulin, 994 A.2d 788, 800 (D.C. 2010) (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted).[2] " Intent or recklessness can be inferred from the outrageousness of the acts." Howard Univ. v. Best, 484 A.2d 958, 985 (D.C. 1984) (citations omitted). Defendant argues that Burnett's allegations of racial bias and hostility do not rise to the level of " extreme and outrageous" conduct. Def.'s Mem. at 7-9.[3]
In deciding whether alleged conduct is " extreme and outrageous," the court must consider: " (1) applicable contemporary community standards of offensiveness and decency, and (2) the specific context in which the conduct took place[.]" King v. Kidd, 640 A.2d 656, 668 (D.C. 1993) (citation omitted). The " liability clearly does not extend to mere insults, indignities, threats, annoyances, petty oppressions, or other trivialities," although statements that were considered a " petty oppression," " trivial" or merely " inconsiderate and unkind" fifty years ago may be " extreme and outrageous" conduct under " today's social standards and principles (or vice-versa)." Id. (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted). Courts have applied a balancing test to determine whether the alleged conduct " violates prevailing social norms and is sufficiently outrageous to ensure that the advantage to society of preventing such harm seems greater than the advantage of leaving ill-disposed persons free to seek their happiness in inflicting it." Id. at 668-69 (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted).
In the work place, isolated incidents of race discrimination generally will not qualify as " extreme and outrageous" conduct. See, e.g., Paul v. Howard Univ., 754 A.2d 297, 308 (D.C. 2000) (holding that a " few isolated incidents" do not suffice to establish a prima facie case of intentional infliction of emotional distress).[4] But a pervasive discriminatory environment does. The " [c]reation of a hostile work environment by racial or sexual harassment may, upon sufficient evidence, constitute a prima facie case of intentional infliction of emotional distress." Best, 484 A.2d at 986 (citing Contreras v. Crown Zellerbach Corp., 88 Wn.2d 735, 565 P.2d 1173, 1177 (Wash. 1977) (en banc), which held that a Mexican American plaintiff had stated a cause of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress where he alleged that he was repeatedly subject to racial slurs). And " [r]epeated harassment . . . may compound the outrageousness of incidents which, taken individually, might not be sufficiently extreme to warrant liability." Best, 484 A.2d at 985 (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted).
AFGE construes Burnett's tort claim as resting on two utterances of the n-word that were not directed at Burnett but at AFGE's National Secretary/Treasurer. Def.'s Mem. at 8 (citing Am. Compl. ¶ ¶ 30-31). Defendant argues that, although those statements are " highly offensive," they do not constitute " extreme and outrageous" conduct. Id. Defendant's reading of the complaint is far too restricted. The complaint recounts a pattern of racist and discriminatory comments and conduct far beyond two mere utterances of the n-word. AFGE's project manager said to its chief engineer " you don't wants those black people doing that work for you," Am. Compl. ¶ 19; an AFGE employee directly asked Burnett are " you black people are still here?" Id. ¶ 22; the project manager told an AFGE employee " [t]hat's what you get with them black people working here," Id. ¶ 24; AFGE's National Secretary/Treasurer told Burnett that " [t]hese white people don't like you and are out to get you because you're black," Id. ¶ 27; and the project manager twice uttered the n-word, Id. ¶ ¶ 30-31. In addition to these discriminatory comments, Burnett alleges a number of racially-motivated demeaning or punitive acts by AFGE. AFGE required Status to conduct its operations at night because Burnett and his employees were African American. Id. at ¶ 36. AFGE falsely accused Burnett of trying to steal copper as a pretext to terminating Status' contract. Id. ¶ 41. And AFGE unjustly blamed Burnett for the pringle switch explosion, knowing that another contractor was responsible for the damage. Id. ¶ 45. As a result of these discriminatory acts, Burnett asserts that he suffered " severe mental anguish" and " substantial weight loss." Am. Compl. ¶ 76.
Taking these alleged facts as true and drawing all reasonable inferences in Plaintiff's favor, the court concludes that Burnett has stated a claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress. Although each statement or action standing alone may not be " sufficiently extreme to warrant liability," see Best, 484 A.2d at 985 (citations omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted), the alleged pattern of harassing conduct was sufficiently " degrading and humiliating" to give rise to a claim of intentional infliction of emotional distress, Id. at 986. AFGE's motion to dismiss Count V is denied.
2. Conversion (Count II)
The tort of conversion consists of " unlawful exercise of ownership, dominion or control over the personal property of another in denial or repudiation of his rights thereto." Shea v. Fridley, 123 A.2d 358, 361 (D.C. 1956) (footnote omitted). " [W]here the defendant's initial possession is lawful, the settled rule is that it [sic] the absence of other facts and circumstances independently establishing conversion, a demand for its return is necessary to render his possession unlawful and to show its adverse nature." Id. (footnote omitted); see also Savoy Constr. Co. v. Atchison & Keller, Inc., 388 A.2d 1221, 1223 (D.C. 1988) (stating that plaintiff's version of facts justified a suit for conversion, because the evidence can support a finding that defendant unlawfully possessed plaintiff's property, and plaintiff's employee testified that he requested and was refused return of the property).
The court disagrees with Defendant's contention that Status has done nothing more than recite the elements of a conversion claim. See Def.'s Mem. at 4-5. Status alleges that it was hired by AFGE to conduct repairs and other maintenance tasks that required the use of tools on AFGE's property. Am. Compl. ¶ ¶ 13-14. Status further alleges that, after improperly terminating Status' contract, AFGE " refused to return tools and equipment owned by Status." Id. ¶ 44. Status concludes: " AFGE without rights to same has retained tools and equipment owned by Status and further has refused to return and/or pay for materials purchased by Status with the intention of depriving Status of same and/or for AFGE's use." Id. ¶ 54. These allegations are sufficient to establish that AFGE wrongfully exercised " ownership, dominion or control" over the tools and equipment owned by Status " in denial or repudiation of [its] rights thereto." Shea, 123 A.2d at 361. Based on these facts, the court may " draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678 (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556). The motion to dismiss is accordingly denied with respect to Count II.
3. Breach of Contract (Count I)
To prevail on a claim of breach of contract, a plaintiff must establish " (1) a valid contract between the parties; (2) an obligation or duty arising out of the contract; (3) a breach of that duty; and (4) damages caused by breach." Tsintolas Realty Co. v. Mendez, 984 A.2d 181, 187 (D.C. 2009) (citation omitted). " [T]o state a claim for breach of contract so as to survive a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss, it is enough for the plaintiff to describe the terms of the alleged contract and the nature of the defendant's breach." Francis v. Rehman, No. 14-CV-190, 110 A.3d 615, 2015 WL 791408, at *4 (D.C. Feb. 26, 2015) (citing Nattah v. Bush, 605 F.3d 1052, 1058, 390 U.S.App.D.C. 435 (D.C. Cir. 2010)).
Status' complaint is hardly a model of clarity. Status has alleged at least two different contracts with AFGE--a " time and materials contract," Am. Compl. ¶ 14,[5] and a " commercial agreement for independent contractor services." [6] Id. ¶ ¶ 40. Based on the complaint, it is unclear whether Status is alleging a violation of the " time and materials contract," the contract for " independent contractor services," or both. See Id. ¶ ¶ 47-48 (identifying both contracts). It is further unclear whether Status is alleging breach based on AFGE's improper termination of the contract, id. P 42, failure to remit payment for services, ¶ ¶ 51-52, or both. In its opposition, Status attempts to clarify that " Plaintiff does not allege that Defendant breached the contract by terminating it. Rather, the breach occurred as the result of Defendant's failure to pay [Status] for work performed and materials purchased prior to the termination[.]" Pl.'s Opp. at 2.
The " purpose of the minimum standard of Rule 8 is to give fair notice to the defendants of the claim being asserted, sufficient to prepare a responsive answer, to prepare an adequate defense and to determine whether the doctrine of res judicata applies." Ihebereme v. Capital One, 730 F.Supp.2d 40, 47 (D.D.C. 2010) (citation omitted). Courts have dismissed breach of contract claims for vagueness or imprecision. See, e.g., Logan v. LaSalle Bank Nat'l Ass'n, 80 A.3d 1014, 1023-24 (D.C. 2013) (dismissing claim where complaint failed to specify which contract provisions were breached or what act or omission by defendants constituted a breach); Edmond v. Am. Educ. Servs., No. 10-0578 (JDB), 2010 WL 4269129, at *2 (D.D.C. Oct. 28, 2010) (dismissing claim where complaint failed to allege the existence of a contract between the parties); Ihebereme, 730 F.Supp.2d at 47-48 (dismissing claim where complaint failed to show that the defendant had a contractual duty relevant to the alleged breach). But, unlike those cases, Status' complaint sufficiently alleges the existence of a contract, its general terms, and the contractual obligation that Defendant purportedly violated ( i.e. failing to pay Plaintiff). When those elements are pled, as here, courts have held that plaintiffs have adequately stated a claim, despite the otherwise imprecise or vague nature of the complaint. See, e.g., Nattah, 605 F.3d at 1057-58 (D.C. Cir. 2010) (plaintiff sufficiently pled breach of contract claim where he described the terms of the alleged contract and defendants' breach, despite a lack of clarity in the complaint about when the contract had been formed and who had entered it); cf. Ponder v. Chase Home Fin., 865 F.Supp.2d 13, 19 (D.D.C. 2012) ( pro se plaintiff pled a claim despite the complaint being " less detailed than the complaint in Nattah" as he identified the parties and material terms of the contracts and alleged facts pertaining to his performance and defendant's breach); Akers v. Beal Bank, 668 F.Supp.2d 197, 200 (D.D.C. 2009) ( pro se plaintiff sufficiently pled a claim despite failure to attach or identify the contract at issue or cite the contractual provision that was allegedly breached; her allegations described the basic contractual terms and the defendant's breach and were thus sufficient to put the defendants on notice of her claim). Defendant's motion to dismiss with respect to the breach of contract claim is therefore denied.
4. Tortious Interference With Contracts and Business Relations (Count VI)
To establish a claim of tortious interference with contractual relations, a plaintiff must demonstrate " (1) the existence of a contract, (2) defendant's knowledge of the contract, (3) defendant's intentional procurement of the contract's breach, and (4) damages resulting from the breach." Cooke v. Griffiths-Garcia Corp., 612 A.2d 1251, 1256 (D.C. 1992) (citation omitted). The elements of tortious interference with business relations, or prospective business advantage, are similar, requiring a mere prospective advantageous business transaction instead of the existence of a contract. See Casco Marina Dev., L.L.C. v. D.C. Redevelopment Land Agency, 834 A.2d 77, 84 (D.C. 2003).
Status alleges that AFGE tortuously interfered with its contract or its business relationship with Status' insurance carrier when AFGE filed an insurance claim for the pringle switch explosion with AFGE's insurance carrier and wrongfully blamed Status for the damage. See Am. Compl. ¶ ¶ 45, 82. AFGE does not challenge Status' pleading of the elements. Rather, AFGE moves to dismiss solely on the ground that its filing of an insurance claim was " privileged conduct," " as it [was] carried out in order to protect a present, existing economic interest." Def.'s Mem. at 9 (citing Futrell v. Dep't of Labor Fed. Credit Union, 816 A.2d 793, 808 n. 13 (D.C. 2003) and Raskauskas v. Temple Realty Co., 589 A.2d 17, 27 (D.C. 1991)).
If Status had pled merely that AFGE's filing of an insurance claim interfered with Status' contract or relationship with its insurance carrier, and no more, AFGE's claim filing arguably would be privileged. But Status has pled more. It alleges that:
Since terminating its contract with Status, AFGE has engaged in a campaign to blame it for negligence committed by others, including asserting an insurance claim for a ground fault in the pringle switch which caused an explosion in an elevator shaft which Status never had any contact with during its work and which AFGE had expressly retained the services of others. AFGE knew that this explosion was caused by another contractor but sought to blame Status due to Burnett's race and AFGE's status as a minority-owned business.
Am. Compl. ¶ 45. The court must, at the motion of dismiss stage, take as true the facts as alleged in the complaint and draw all reasonable inferences in Plaintiff's favor. See Hettinga, 677 F.3d at 476. If the facts alleged are true, AFGE's filing of an insurance claim was not privileged because it was not done to " protect a present, existing economic interest," Futrell, 816 A.2d at 808 n. 13 (citation omitted) (internal quotation marks omitted), but rather to harm Status " due to Burnett's race and AFGE's status as a minority-owned business," Am. Compl. ¶ 45. The motion to dismiss with respect to Count VI is thus denied.
For the reasons stated above, Counts III and IV are dismissed with respect to Burnett with prejudice. As to all other claims, Defendant's motion to dismiss is denied. The court will issue a separate order setting an Initial Scheduling Conference in this matter.
The Initial Scheduling Conference in this matter is set for May 29, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom 10. Counsel who attend must be sufficiently familiar with the case to answer any questions which arise; parties are welcome and are encouraged to attend. In the event counsel or a party is unable to appear on the scheduled date and time due to an unresolvable scheduling conflict, counsel shall meet and confer and provide, via email, two alternative dates and times to the Courtroom Deputy, Ms. Chashawn White (firstname.lastname@example.com), who shall reset the Initial Scheduling Conference and provide notice to the parties.
Pursuant to Local Civil Rule 16.3 and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(f), counsel shall confer at least 21 days prior to the above date and submit their Report addressing all topics listed in Local Civil Rule 16.3(c) no fewer than seven (7) days prior to the date of the Initial Scheduling Conference. Counsel are reminded that Rule 26(f) has been amended to direct the parties to discuss at their discovery planning conference issues relating to discovery of electronically stored information, preservation of discoverable information, and assertions of privilege or attorney work product, including whether to ask the Court to enter an order reflecting any agreement between the parties regarding the procedure for asserting such claims after production. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 26(f)(3). If appropriate, counsel must address these additional topics in their Report.
Counsel are also directed to include at the start of their Report a brief statement of the case and the statutory or common law basis for all causes of action and defenses.
A request to continue the scheduling conference after it is set must be made by motion filed no later than three (3) business days prior to the hearing and must include two alternative dates and times that have been agreed to by all parties. A motion for continuance that does not include alternative dates and times acceptable to all parties will be denied.
Counsel shall not contact chambers directly concerning scheduling or other matters, as chambers personnel will not handle questions relating to the status or scheduling of pending matters, except in the event of an emergency. In an emergency, chambers can be reached at 202-354-3250.

Why do we have it and why haven't we used it before?
Oh no, this was actually funny in my head.
I like to think that Megs sometimes loses himself in his hatred for Prime and he's so focussed that he does things like these in his spare time. I just love that he had this fully functional model in his closet and never bothered to mention it to anybody.
Screenshots are from G1 Transformers "The Ultimate Doom Part 1".
May your St. Patrick's Day be as successful as theirs.

G1 Transformers Episode 1 Season 1: More than meets the Eye, Part 1
Two days ago, this blog reached 3000 amazing followers , which is more than I could've ever hoped for. There is no way I could thank all of you for your support and kind words, but I'll try to anyway.
As a thank you, I will go through with a project I've been meaning to do for some time now, and I will recap every single G1 episode.
Not every episode is easy to make fun of, not every episode is pure gold like "A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur's Court" or "Carnage in C-minor", but every episode is magical in its own way, and even the genuinely good ones have a whole bunch of nonsense and silly lines in them. This is both a thank you to all of you, as well as an expression for my appreciation and love for this cartoon.
Season 1 is relatively tame and I will try my best to make the recaps of those episodes somewhat enjoyable, because Season 1 is actually not bad and things only really took a turn for the fantastical nonsense in Season 2 and onwards. I hope you'll enjoy these comics, and I will still make short G1 comics like I've done so far.
This is for those who have seen the cartoon and aren't sure if this show really exists (spoiler: it does) and for those who haven't seen it and just want to have a very short version of it. I will leave out things on purpose so you can still watch the show and experience a whole bunch of strange dialogues and horrible evil plans that go nowhere without having everything spoiled here.
Thank you guys so much for these past 10 months, they've been amazing for me and I hope you'll stay for some more!
(btw I apologize for all errors etc, I've been making this for 8 hours straight and I'm a bit exhausted now)
Decepticon seekers, WHAT BEAUTIFUL CREATURES
really lovin Guido's "neo" design here
pencils by Guido Guidi, colouring by VaderPrime1
I have no idea where Starscream's name comes from, I always thought he is just really freaking excited about stars.
It was Skywarp's fault.
A commission I did for somebody :)
More than meets the eye Part 3
This one isn't very good, I apologize. Also, it's confusing as hell.
And so, the Pilot comes to an end, in a confusing little finale filled with robots having silly plans, Starscream being Starscream, Optimus losing his shit and people shooting at things without ever hitting. Also, it turns out all the Energon they've been fighting for will not be used to get back home, but to fuel a completely silly show.
What do the Autobots do, now that they've spontaneously (and off-screen) decided to no return to Cybertron? Find out in the next recap, where we will examine (and be severely disappointed by) Bumblebee's spying skills, observe strange battle tactics involving cave entrances and meet up with an old friend.
EDIT: I know it's Ant-droids and not androids, I chose to go with the latter because I despise puns, but wanted to keep this moment in because it's ridiculous.

That's not a bad thought. If anything, I do seem to be more sensitive to the nasties than I used to be. Plus I have higher expectations now that I've been finding some really good products, free of parabens and full of things that seem to work.
It's the price on the CostCo website. I agree, we normally test products for much longer. But as this was actually having an adverse effect, I stopped. That's why I made of point of saying I used it for only two weeks before giving up.
Still, I am glad you like it.
I wonder if we *treat* our face over time by using products that don't use parabens and/or ureas, that when we do (and in such amounts- five!) they don't have harsh(er) affects, such as you experienced. Just thinking... ~jk
I have tried the Kirkland Signature Eye Cream and actually like it. I purchased it for lesser than $26.99, not sure where you purchased yours. I think it's fair to try a product for more than 2 weeks because it takes a while for your skin to get used to it. But, to each her own.

text: being part of a super-hip and ultra-cool underground society, today i scored a secret public holiday and the keys to an SLK320 roadster. wow, what a peach of a car i've always liked the SLKs, so this was half-testdrive for a possible future purchase and half recreation. the 5speed tiptronic is great, best of both manual and auto worlds (although sometimes in life you do need to slip a little clutch). this thing handled brilliantly, probably the best handling car i've ever driven, probably due to it's shorter wheelbase than it's SL brother. wind noise wasn't excessive, i took my mother for a drive tonight and we could talk without having to yell. i love my mum. she has hearty respect for the Old Ton. brakes were brilliant. interior was finished with panels of drill-polished metal, though i believe the SLK230 Kompressor comes with carbon trim. heater was great when the mountain air started getting chilly, because god forbid i have to put the top up. i understand the new models have the option of the Air Scarves, with vents placed on either side of your neck there's a closed-off road around here near the quarry that i was allowed to make use of for an hour. god bless german enineering. so damn stable at high speeds. but being the older model SLK the radio wasn't one of the modern ones that turns itself up the faster you go. spent the rest of the afternoon doing my fave hillclimbs, from Springwood Rd to Megalong Valley to Bell's Line. the sound of that lush V6 is still blazed into my memory best of all i got a good chance to use my new 8mp cybershot and tripod. jam the tripod behind the right corner of the passanger seat, start filming, start driving and presto! something out of Fifth Gear. i need a microphone though. windnoise can make a great video boring as hell i understand National Roadster Day is not very well known, it's not publicised, it's date is constantly changing, for some strange reason usually coincidenting with large-scale events in the city which take up valuable police resources from the rest of NSW (ie APEC, WYD). i can assure you NRD is not just a blunt creation of my own psyche to glorify a day of depraved speeding on under-policed roads. i can be counted on to uphold traffic laws, even in the absence of the Boys in Blue who were busy in the city seeing to our pilgrim guests, making sure they crossed the roads OK. unfortunately, there's the bad news. being over 6ft, the last roadster i had was cramped as hell, making it much easier for me to resist the temptation to buy one. the SLK fitted me like a glove. this can only be bad news to my savings plans i hope you enjoyed reading about my day's adventure. i'm trying not to be smug about having such a complete blast. i'll post details of the next NRD when i hear about it, there's talk of free british-racing-green plastic bracelets to commemorate the next event watch Loki learn how to ghost-ride the whip!


text: I managed to source a couple of large csv text files to import into a database. The larger one has around 6 million records. MS Access has difficulties with it and crashes. Today, when I tried it again, it pops up a message as I start Access (not loading databases or anything) saying "not enough memory" and then closes. A second box pops up straight away and says something like "system error. Not enough memory to run Access. Try closing some other applications and try again". I have 1 gigabyte of RAM. Task Manager tells me that there is around 760 megs free. PF Usage is around 120 megs. 50 gigs free space on the hard disk. P4 3ghz PC. Any ideas, chasps? I've shut down, rebooted, unplugged it, did a highland jig (yeah, I know, I'm odd), but the low memory error still persists. Yet I can start up Pagemaker and load a 140 meg document and still have heaps of RAM and resources free. Thanks

The town of Mauchline was the home of a thriving industry devoted to the manufacture of boxes and other wooden souvenir items. These souvenirs are now referred to as "Mauchline Ware". Many small towns in that area of Scotland manufactured Mauchline Ware. The box makers generally used wood from the Sycamore tree, also known as Scots Plane. A large variety of utilitarian pieces were produced. The souvenirs produced involved many of the Victorian pastimes of sewing, writing, games, smoking, etc. The souvenirs were decorated with transfers of scenic spots from around the globe.
This early, wooden trinket box is a wonderful example of Mauchline Ware. This trunk shaped box depicts a scene from The Sands, Ramsgate. The scene on the lid depicts a Victorian beach town with people romping in the water with boats and buildings in the background. The buildings are extremely well detailed. Printed in bold lettering below the scene, "The Sands, Ramsgate". The lift off lid opens easily and closes securely. Dainty, rope twist handles accent each end of the box. The transfer is good condition with some dings to the surface. The original finish is in good to fair condition. These dings are normal for the age of this wonderful box. The slight flaws to the surface do not detract from the beauty of this charming trinket box. Mentioned for Accuracy and Priced Accordingly. This box is still a fantastic treasure even with the minor dings. This is a no harm flaw. I do not repair my items. I have priced this piece at an extremely low cost to make up for the minor dings. I am selling this trinket box in "as is" condition. I am extremely particular and I ALWAYS try to mention EVERY, TINY detail. I prefer to be overly cautious then to have an unhappy customer. Otherwise, this Mauchline Ware trinket box is in good condition. There are no DINGS, DENTS, REPAIRS, CHIPS, FLEABITES, NICKS, FLAKES, or CRACKS. This lovely trinket box measures approximately 3 ¼ inches in length by 2 inches in width by 2 ¼ inches in height. This delightful trinket box would be a great gift for you or for the Mauchline Ware collector. The holidays are just around the corner. This wonderful trunk shaped box is a great gift idea for that special loved one for the holidays. This timeless treasure would be a perfect stocking stuffer. ***PLEASE NOTE: PayPal Payments due within 48 hours of purchase. *** ALL shipping costs are included!
