Regarding @qwazse point about taking complaints to the Bar Association, I looked at the link below https://www.americanbar.org/groups/professional_responsibility/publications/model_rules_of_professional_conduct/model_rules_of_professional_conduct_preamble_scope/ Noticed this [16] Compliance with the Rules, as with all law in an open society, depends primarily upon understanding and voluntary compliance, secondarily upon reinforcement by peer and public opinion and finally, when necessary, upon enforcement through disciplinary proceedings. The Rules do not, however, exhaust the moral and ethical considerations that should inform a lawyer, for no worthwhile human activity can be completely defined by legal rules. The Rules simply provide a framework for the ethical practice of law.

Sort of STEM and story is a bit old but an entirely different fundraiser. Fremont Mischief whiskey distiller recruited four captains to age its whiskey at sea, then marketed the four differently aged whiskeys as a challenge fundraiser. In 2016, Captain Sig Hansen, Mandy, Nick & Crew supporting Sea Scouts: $5,305 came in second. Barrel-aged in the bow, under the forward wheelhouse of the F/V Northwestern, this whiskey was thrashed by the turbulent icy waves of the Bering Sea...Taster notes: Hints of the briny sea, sweet smoke, and a warm toasty finish. Captain Sig Hansen has been featured on Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch. @mashmaster Reference links: https://fremontmischief.com/storm-tossed-rye-whiskey/ https://www.king5.com/article/entertainment/television/programs/evening/deadliest-catch-captains-age-whiskey-aboard-boats-seattle-distillery-fremont-mischief-crab/281-7e32404e-4bbe-45b6-bbd4-321d02bda660

No requirements...no pamphlet...so if a scout registers for the merit badge can the MBC say at the first meeting, Well I can't add requirements, I guess you all pass.

I become concerned when a party states do not use the ballot provided rather download our app and use that to vote. Was this Coalition app court approved?

Our local technical high school received a state high tech grant which funded a first-rate HAAS CNC shop, oh they have Bridgeports , lathes, and my favorite - an anvil. Only a few students registered, so the school setup a cross-program with the local community college. No shortage of interested, more mature students. The tech teachers whom I have spoken say they want better students ahead of pay, benefits, new equipment.

I hear you. IMHO, for public institutions that has to be changed by taxpayers; we should not throw money at replicating chemistry labs, auto shops, ... While a DL, we met at the local playground which was on school property...until a new principal said we could not. This didn't sit well with many in the community who volunteered to build that playground after a tax increase to fund it. Her attitude was adjusted as was nearly her employment. My $0.02,

@ThenNow We should not be copying the whole article of a commercial publication, rather just quote a few excerpts while noting source. Also, that article is now paywalled.

..."The Roy Grindstaff Skilled Trades Center will provide scouts ages 13-18 the opportunity to earn the merit badges of automotive maintenance, electricity, home repair, painting, plumbing and welding. The facility will also include a classroom to accommodate hands-on skills presentations by volunteers who are experts in the trades’ fields." The center to be located at Boxwell Scout Reservation is scheduled to open next summer and was "made possible through a gift from the Maddox Foundation of Hernando, Miss. The Skilled Trades Center is a priority project of the Middle Tennessee Council’s Campaign for Boxwell Reservation. The $10.6 million effort (for renovating the whole camp - RS) is underway and just less than $7 million has been raised."

Charter and ByLaws of BSA as amended through May, 2021 https://www.scouting.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Charter_Bylaws_May2021.pdf Article III. The Executive Board, Section 2 Membership will drop from 64 to 40 members. Adding a single survivor is similar to having a single, token scout member on the National Executive Board. Zero impact.

@Teacher_of_the_Arcanon behalf of the moderators, welcome to scouter.com.

Oct 14, 2021 For comparison: A federal bankruptcy court in Minnesota has accepted a reorganization plan that would compensate sexual abuse survivors in the Diocese of Winona-Rochester. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Minnesota signed off on the plan on Thursday after it was submitted by the diocese and the Committee of Unsecured Creditors, who represent the 145 abuse survivors. The diocese and committee reached a settlement in February for $21.5 million. Terms of the plan confirmed Thursday by the court call for the creation of a trust fund totaling just over $22,000,000 to compensate the survivors. It covers Diocesan assets, including the disposition of specific Diocesan assets and insurance coverage settlements of $6.5 million. The diocese filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in November 2018. Since then, the diocese said it's been working toward a resolution of claims against the diocese and non-diocesan Catholic entities within the diocese. The statement from the diocese said the plan also includes the "implementation of enhanced non-monetary protocols for the protection of children which were first implemented by the diocese in 2002.
