  • Jacknife Lee
    Jacknife Lee It is fair to say that Jacknife Lee has become one of the most sought after and highly influential producers currently at work. Lee’s career has encompassed work with some of the biggest and most influential artists on both sides of the Atlantic in the shape of Taylor Swift, U2, R.E.M., Kasabian, Robbie Williams and Neil Diamond. His work on U2’s “How To Dismantle An Atom Bomb” saw him collect two Grammy Awards in 2006 as well as Producer of the Year at the UK MMF Awards. He was also again Grammy nominated in 2013 for his work on Swift’s multi-million selling album “Red.” Currently working on what looks set to be the biggest album from Scottish alt-rock heroes Twin Atlantic and the debut album from The Gossip’s Beth Ditto, Lee has also produced a handful of tracks on Jake Bugg’s upcoming third album and is just about to commence work with Two Door Cinema Club after their successful collaboration on Beacon two years previously. In 2014, Lee was honoured to be asked to co-produce Neil Diamond’s “Melody Road” album alongside the tremendously talented Don Was. “Melody Road” debuted at #3 in America and #4 in the UK as it received universal critical acclaim. Lee has gained much recognition as a writer producer over the last five years. In 2014 also Lee co write and produced various singles for Kodaline’s second album “Coming Up For Air” which peaked at #2, while he also produced and co-wrote Twin Atlantic’s Radio 1 A-listed singles “Heart and Soul” and “Brothers and Sisters.” In addition, Lee spent some of the year writing and producing track for alternative urban artist Raury.

  • What's Wrong About the Elective Share
    What’s Wrong About the Elective Share “Right”? Naomi Cahn* This Article examines one form of property rights available to a surviving spouse, the elective share. The elective share serves as an override to a testator’s stated intent by allowing the surviving spouse to choose to take a portion of the decedent’s estate — even if the will explicitly disinherits the surviving spouse. The Article analyzes a recent five-year period of state cases raising elective share issues with the goal of determining the circumstances under which an elective share is most likely to be contested. The reported elective share disputes typically involve a subsequent spouse challenging a will that leaves property to an earlier family. The petitioners are almost invariably women. The length of the marriage ranges from a few months to decades, and some of the cases involve waiver of the share, some involve estranged spouses, and a few involve marriage fraud. Disputes over the elective share illustrate family tensions, rarely involving parents against joint children, and more frequently pitting a surviving spouse against the decedent’s earlier families. The Article provides an empirical assessment of the current rationales for the elective share and suggests revisions to existing elective share approaches that reflect both differing theories of what values marriage should represent and the changing demography of marriage and remarriage. * Copyright © 2020 Naomi Cahn. Naomi Cahn is the Harold H. Greene Chair, George Washington University Law School. Thanks to Mary Kate Hunter, research librarian extraordinaire. I also thank Meredith Condren and Miranda Millerick for research assistance.

  • On September 15Th, 2019, Ric Ocasek Died. He, Along with Benjamin Orr Were the Founders and Driving Force Behind the New Wave Band the Cars
    More Lives Than Disco On September 15th, 2019, Ric Ocasek died. He, along with Benjamin Orr were the founders and driving force behind the New Wave band The Cars. In 1977 the Disco craze of the 70’s looked to be coming to an end and was about to be supplanted by New Wave and Punk bands (The Sex Pistols, The Cars and Blondie-yes, they were actually a punk band at that time that was just beginning to surface). You see, music genres (The British Invasion, Grunge, New Wave and Punk etc.) have a life cycle, just like the economy and Disco had seemingly run its course with mid 70’s hits like “Disco Inferno”, “I Love the Nightlife” and others dominating the charts (there was even an atrocious Disco “Star Wars” theme remix in 1977). So, it looked like a tired Disco era was ending, with Punk and New Wave bands like The Cars about to take over the charts when something unexpected happened. In 1977, Vice President and the film “Saturday Night Fever” was released and its accompanying Senior Investment Advisor soundtrack by the Bee Gees was a smash hit with its Disco themes dominating airwaves for the next 2 years, reigniting the genre and T: 604.643.0234 encouraging other acts, including stadium Rock staples like Kiss and [email protected] Rod Stewart, to release Disco tracks. In Stewart’s case, the Spandex driven “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy”. One of the genres seminal hits, “Heart of Glass” was actually recorded as a satire/parody of the genre by the, at that point, punk band Blondie in their CBGB days (if you don’t believe me, look it up, there’s a great video of Deborah Harry and the band discussing it online).
