local invasive plants
For this post you will become an expert on an invasive species. If you are the first person to post, read the first plant profile (Tree-of-Heaven) the second person to post, read the second plant profile (Maltese Star-Thistle), etc.
To avoid working on a post that another student is working on, you are encouraged to submit a placeholder post and then submit a second post with your response once you’re done.
Click on ONE of the invasive species plant profiles below:
Tree-of-Heaven – Ailanthus altissima
Maltese star-thistle – Centaurea melitensis
Fountain grass – Pennisetum setaceum
Brazilian pepper tree – Schinus terebinthifolius
London rocket – Sisymbrium irio
Post Requirements:
This assignment requires TWO posts, each completed individually. Both of your posts need to be written in your own words. No credit will be given for responses copied directly from the plant profile.
First Post – Due Thursday
List the top three reasons you feel this species is of concern in the Los Angeles River Watershed. For reach reason, explain why this makes this plant a cause for concern. Be sure to support your argument with evidence from the plant profile you read.
Based on the distribution of the plant (see the maps), biology and ecology and the methods of eradication, do you think it is possible to safely eradicate (completely remove) this species from the watershed? Why or why not? Support your argument with specifics from the plant profile.
Second Post – Due Sunday
Choose one classmate’s post to respond to (try to respond to someone that hasn’t yet received a response). Read their plant’s profile in addition to their post. Include the following in your reply:
Compare your classmate’s species to the species you posted about. Do you consider their species to be of greater or lesser concern than yours in the Los Angeles River Watershed? Provide at least three specific reasons from the plant profiles.
Again, comparing your species to your classmate’s, would your species be easier or harder to safely eradicate? Support your claim by comparing the distribution maps and the methods of eradication.
Look at both plant profiles, what are the impacts of these two species on native species of the Los Angeles River? Which one has a greater impact? Why?
Based on your answers to #2 and #3, would you recommend eradication for either of these species in the Los Angeles River Watershed? Why?
premarital agreement
FACTS: Amanda Salazar is a successful CEO for a growing dot.com which she had founded and is currently valued at $100,000,000. The company has gone public and she has maintained ownership of 51% of the stock (a current value of $51,000,000). She also earns an annual salary of $2,000,000. The outlook for the company is that it could grow to a value well within the billions. Amanda is extremely career driven and her focus has led to a lack of time to enjoy Earthly possessions. As such, her holdings are of high-value, but limited in number. They are:
A house in Silicon Valley valued at $5,000,000
A ranch in Ocala, FL valued at $1,000,000 (which she officially calls home)
An apartment in Manhattan valued at $8,000,000
A well-maintained, 1967 Shelby GT500 valued at $200,000
Her prized, English Bulldog which she had purchased for $8,000
A 401(k) currently containing $2,000,000
4 months ago, Amanda met and fell in love with an aspiring musician named Brad Dillane. Brad lives in Tampa and works part-time as a barista at the local Starbucks. Last year, he earned $20,000 from that job while also earning another $2,000 from gigs at local retirement homes and shopping malls. Brad hopes to sign a record deal, some day, though has yet to be noticed by the music industry because he isn’t very good and hates to practice. His possessions include:
An inherited 1 bedroom apartment valued at $35,000
A 1970 AMC Gremlin valued at $2,000
A fender Stratocaster valued at $1,000
Amanda and Brad have just learned that Amanda is pregnant with Brad’s child. After the baby is born, Amanda will return to work and Brad will stay at home with the baby. They have decided to wed in a few months. Amanda is well aware of their disparate incomes, holdings and prospects. As such, she has decided to have a premarital agreement drawn up by your firm.
YOUR ASSIGNMENT: The attorney has asked you to draft a premarital agreement that protects her future interests. You will need to identify if they live in a community property or equitable division state. Then, locate sample models of premarital agreements to follow in your execution of the document. As you design your agreement, please feel free to fabricate any required details that won’t affect the nature of agreement (specific property addresses, the name of the Bulldog, etc). The agreement should address pre-designated spousal support and child support, death benefits, schedules of liabilities and assets , identified separate/joint property, etc.
