Password management tends to be one of those activities that most people choose to be lazier with. Thanks to the way that TV and movies poorly portray how most cyber breaches are conducted, people don’t realize the true importance of password discipline. But the one statistic that tells the whole story, is that a whopping 81% of data breaches are a result of password compromise (according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report).

Looking for a way to get in the holiday spirit? Most restaurants these days have something set up for you to donate money that  they can prepare and deliver to the hospital, fire house, food bank, or any other place you would like. This trend has come about due to Covid 19. Many restaurants have this set up and can even put your money together with others in the community to make these food donations. Many restaurants offer the food at a discount or even do some kind of match with the funds.

Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA) & George Mason University (Mason)

“Begin with the end in mind” is a motto frequently shared with students at the beginning of their educational journey at Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA). This motto reflects the importance of thinking through one’s educational and career goals in order to ensure a student pursues the most appropriate degree and selects the courses necessary to prepare them for their future endeavors. Many students who attend NOVA do so with the intent of transferring to a four-year college or university. While NOVA students transfer to a number of four-year schools, over 3,000 students per year choose to attend George Mason University (Mason).

Buying, Selling and Restructuring Distressed Assets

Eric Lemmer, Esq., Attorney & Counselor at Law, Admitted in Virginia and the District of Columbia, Arlington Law Group

Given the unprecedented economic turmoil caused by COVID-19, there has been a substantial uptick in distressed asset transactions (i.e. the sale of something well below its traditional market value). We have been surprised by the number of these transactions that have lacked traditional due diligence and contingency planning. Seemingly, parties have been willing to ignore traditional risks and are increasingly motivated by fear or greed. However, distressed asset transactions typically have heightened risks associated with them, which justify additional planning from a legal perspective, not less.
