  • Analysis: the 2013 Amendments to South Carolina Code Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 Do Not Substantively Change the Law, Th
    ALAN WILSON ATTORNEY GENERAL June 14, 2013 The Honorable Barry J. Barnette Solicitor, Seventh Judicial Circuit 180 Magnolia Street Spa1tanburg, South Carolina 29306 Dear Solicitor Barnette: Attorney General Alan Wilson has referred your letter of March 27, 2013 to the Opinions section for a response. The following is our understanding of your question presented and the opinion of this Office concerning the issue based on that understanding. Issues: Do the 2013 amendments to Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 of the South Carolina Code of Laws mean: I) Any place licensed to serve alcohol may now have bingo, casino nights and poker nights as long as they are for a charitable purpose? 2) May holders of beer and wine permits have game promotions including contests, games of chance, or sweepstakes in which the elements of chance and prize are present and which comply w ith specified requirements contained in subsection 3 [of S.C. Code Section 61-4-580] as long as the game or sweepstakes does not use a '"poker machine?" Law/Analysis: The 2013 amendments to South Carolina Code Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 do not substantively change the law, they merely clarified existing South Carolina law, indicating that Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 are not exceptions or limitations to Section 12-21-2710 (or other sections of the law concerning gambling or games of chance). Our position, which is consistent with the jurisprudence in this State, is that South Carolina law was clear and unambiguous before this amendment. Therefore, the same principles that applied under the law before the amendment apply after it.1 As a background regarding statutory interpretation, the cardinal ru le of statutory construction is to ascertain the intent of the legislature and to accomplish that intent.

  • Advertising/Marketing Code and Buying Guidelines
    Advertising/Marketing Code and Buying Guidelines Introduction Beer is a legal beverage meant to be consumed responsibly by adults of legal drinking age. Its origins are ancient, and it has held a respected position in nearly every culture and society since the dawn of recorded history. In the United States, beer is a mature product category with broad cultural acceptance and a history of memorable and distinctive advertising that, because of its humor and creativity, has long been a favorite among American adult consumers. Advertising and marketing materials are legitimate efforts by Brewers to inform consumers of the particular styles and attributes of numerous beers and other malt beverages that are available. Brewer advertising and marketing materials also foster competition, persuade adult consumers of beer to try particular brands, and maintain customer loyalty. Brewers should employ the perspective of the reasonable adult consumer of legal drinking age in advertising and marketing their products, and should be guided by the following basic principles, which have long been reflected in the policies of the brewing industry and continue to underlie this Code: • Beer advertising should not suggest directly or indirectly that any of the laws applicable to the sale and consumption of beer should not be complied with. • Brewers should adhere to contemporary standards of good taste applicable to all commercial advertising and consistent with the medium or context in which the advertising appears. • Advertising themes, creative aspects, and placements should reflect the fact that Brewers are responsible corporate citizens. • Brewers strongly oppose abuse or inappropriate consumption of their products. The term “beer” as used in this Code covers all types of malt beverages, including but not limited to, beers and flavored malt beverages, as well as various specialty products containing alcohol such as hard cider.

  • Tang Dynasty Games Magna Faire, AS LIV/2019
    Ouyang Yingzhao Tang Dynasty Games Magna Faire, AS LIV/2019 Weiqi (围棋) or Go ​ ​ A game of Strategy Perhaps better known by the name of it’s Japanese deritivie, Go, weiqi (围棋, wéi qí) is a territory control ​ ​ ​ ​ game played with a gridded board and 361 disc-shaped pieces. Unlike western Chess, there are no prescribed, piece-specific directional moves in Go, so that the combination possibilities are almost infinite. In the Tang Dynasty, one’s ability to play Go was a measure of a person’s gentility among the elites (men and women alike), along with calligraphy, music, and painting.1 The earliest reliable record of the game comes from 548 BCE, making it possibly the oldest game that has been continuously played.2 The standard size Go board consists of a grid of 19 by 19 intersections, but variant boards have existed throughout history. The earliest extant board, a fragment from the mausoleum of Emperor Jing (r. 157-141 BCE) is 17 by 17.3 Two more 17 by 17 boards were found in an Eastern Han Dynasty (dates) tomb and official Cao Teng’s tomb (mid-second century). A 15 by 15 board was found in a tomb dated to the late Western Han Dynasty, and similar variants may have survived into the Tang or Liao periods. (dates).4 The earliest 19 by 19 board is made of porcelain and dates to 595, and another is from the early Tang Dynasty, found in the tomb of Ran Rencai (598-652), who was Prefect of Yongzhou.5 To play weiqi, players take turns placing black and white stones on the board’s intersections.
