"Widerlich": Erster Titel für Hearts seit 1960 in Gefahr
Ein umstrittener Eingriff des Video-Schiedsrichters bringt Außenseiter Heart of Midlothian womöglich um die erste schottische Fußball-Meisterschaft seit 66 Jahren. Durch den verwandelten Handelfmeter in der neunten Minute der Nachspielzeit kam Titelrivale Celtic Glasgow noch zu einem glücklichen 3:2 beim FC Motherwell. Damit liegt der Titelverteidiger vor dem direkten Duell mit den Hearts beim Saisonfinale am Samstag nur einen statt drei Zähler im Hintertreffen.

Glasgow Warriors’ Franco Smith moving on after tour to forget in South Africa
Glasgow Warriors’ coach Franco Smith reflects on a challenging South African tour, highlighting positives in key metrics and preparing his team for an upcoming URC showdown against Cardiff at Scotstoun Stadium. Picture: ROBERT PERRY / AFP Image: ROBERT PERRY / AFP It was not quite the homecoming Franco Smith had probably envisioned when he returned to South Africa as coach of Glasgow Warriors, as his side was outclassed in both outings in the United Rugby Championship (URC).

Court Rules Pension Fund's Position Was Not 'So Baseless' As To Mandate An Award Of Attorneys' Fees
Takeaways Employers who are pursued by multiemployer pension plans for withdrawal liability often face an uphill battle to recoup the attorneys' fees for defending such claims. Steelcase is a good reminder of the judicial reluctance to award attorneys' fees against a multiemployer pension plan. Article ERISA is widely regarded as a remedial statute.

Withdrawal Liability: Third Circuit Paves New Path For Pension Funds To Collect From Affiliated Employers
Takeaways The Third Circuit recently held in Laguna Dairy that, under certain circumstances, a settlement agreement over a withdrawal liability dispute can constitute a revised withdrawal liability assessment under ERISA. Employers should be mindful that all trades or businesses under common control are treated as a single employer and are jointly and severally liable for withdrawal liability under ERISA.
Alerion Express 28
Coastal cruiser As I look back through all the volumes of SAILING Designs one of the thoughts that strikes me is where are all these designers today? Some, like my old drinking buddy Gary Mull, are dead. I didn't know Carl Schumacher well but I knew him and I was saddened when I heard he had died at such a young age. Carl had a good eye and he knew how to draw a fine sailing boat. His Express 37 remains one of my all-time favorite boats. I have no idea where some of the other designers went.
Alerion Express Cat
Garry Hoyt can't leave anything alone. The catboat came with a number of genetic weaknesses or "personal idiosyncracies" and Garry attacked these with his typical innovative attitude. Catboats have too much weather helm. Catboats don't go to weather. The solution to this was to renovate the rig using a free-standing, carbon-fiber mast and the independent, deck-mounted, patented, Hoyt free-standing self-vanging boom, known as the PHFSSVB.

Hanse 360
It was about 5 a.m., I was awake and listening to the rain, thinking about my sailing reviews due later that morning. I began to think of all the production sailboats that were built in the U.S. in the 1970s. There was Islander, Ericson, Ranger, Columbia, Cal, Pacific Sea Craft, Westsail, and that was only Southern California. I’m not even going to try to list the builders on the East Coast. The point I’m trying to make is: Where are they all now? Why are they gone?
Bavaria C46
According to the Bavaria brochure, the C46 offers “ideal conditions for the ambitious sailor who values not only performance and easy handling, but also comfort and a sense of style.” The design is by Cossutti Yacht Design. The D/L ratio of the C46 is 151, and L/B is 2.97. There is a single chine that runs from the stem to the transom. Freeboard is on the high side, but it is a good looking hull if you don’t mind the lack of overhang.

Orofacial clefting (OFC) is the most common congenital orofacial anomaly in North America with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 700 births.1, 2 OFC can be classified as isolated cleft palate (CP) or cleft lip ± cleft palate (CLP).
Working For Safer Communities
January serves as National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, an important time for reflection, awareness, and action. This month is a solemn reminder of the urgent need to protect the most vulnerable among us from one of the most insidious crimes in our society. Today, I want to speak directly to you about what this means for us and how we can all make a difference.
Holiday Decorations from the Garden
If you wander your neighborhood, you may realize what a great variety of materials for Holiday decorating are available in nature all around us—and for very little cost. You may notice many beautiful trees—maples, redbuds, and firs—with leaves in various colors of gold, red, and green—just the colors of Christmas. Drought tolerant shrubs like nandina, holly, and toyon all have beautiful berries at this time of year. This should get you thinking about decorating your house for the holidays.
Sun Odyssey 350
For this review, I should save the surprise for the end, but why make you wait? About a month ago, around midnight, depending on the version of the story, I rolled out of bed and fractured my back. What followed has been not much fun, and involved 28 staples reconnecting the pieces of my backbone back together. It was a very traumatic time for my wife Jill and it wasn’t much fun for me either.
Swan 51
Nautor says, “The first Swan 51 represented a landmark in the inspirational evolution of the Nautor Swan brand. Launched in 1981, the model marked the first collaboration between Swan and the celebrated naval architect Germán Frers. Based on the successful 51-foot Admiral’s Cup racer Blizzard, the Swan 51 was the start of one of the most successful partnerships in yachting history with over 700 yachts produced so far to his design.
Bali 5.8
The Catana Group is launching its 14th Bali catamaran model, the 5.8, in conjunction with the 10th anniversary of the line. The promo blurb says “always bigger,” and I’m not going to argue with that. This is a very big 58-foot catamaran. The catamaran is designed by Xavier Fay with interior design by Paiton Bercault. Whatever you ever wanted in 58 feet will certainly fit into this big cat.
Nautitech Open 48
It will be fun to see what happens when we compare two catamarans with similar L/Ds using both hulls, and similar L/Ds using each hull individually, while reducing LOA by 9.62 feet. The 48 Open, designed by the Marc Lombard Yacht Design Group, with interior design by Nautitech and Christophe Chedal-Anglay Design, displaces 46% of the Bali 5.8, so you could consider the 48-Open half as big based on volume. Off the bat this tells me the 48 Open is a more performance-oriented cruising catamaran.
Dufour 44
Dufour is a French builder that has been around as long or longer than I have been designing. Its Arpege model was hugely successful and began life as a half-tonner. This new Dufour is aimed at the cruising market and comes with a multitude of optional layouts, with three or four staterooms. Obviously I only have the word count space here to feature one layout. I have chosen a three-stateroom layout that I think works best for most cruising groups.
Outbound 5360
I first met Tim Kernan about 20 years ago when he was attending The Landing School of Boatbuilding and Design in Maine, taking its yacht design course. The students are required to complete an internship and Tim called me and applied. We got along well and had a lot in common. I lost track of Tim after that. About a year later I was working away in my office when a Jeep pulled into my parking lot. It was loaded to the gunwales with stuff. Out stepped Tim. He said he was looking for a job.
Cayman 28
Regular readers probably know that years ago Mark Mills was an intern in my office. He was fun to have around and really knew sailing. I would listen to him talking to my clients on the phone with his nice Irish accent and I knew he could sell my work better than I could. But that was years ago when Mark had a long ponytail. Today Mark has very short hair and his own thriving design office.
Elan Impression 43
The newest design in the Elan series of cruising boats is this Rob Humphreys-designed Elan Impression 43, which marks 20 years of Humphreys designs for Elan. The deck is designed by the Pininfarina studio. The interior design is by the Elan Design Team. The target is very familiar: Give the buyer the most accommodations possible in the given LOA while preserving enough performance to make the boat enjoyable to sail. Make the boat attractive to family sailors as well as suitable for charter.
The End Of Chevron Deference And The Anticipated Impact On Withdrawal Liability
The U.S. Supreme Court recently overturned the decades-old Chevron doctrine of judicial deference to a federal agency's interpretation of an ambiguous statute. (See "Go Fish! U.S. Supreme Court Overturns 'Chevron Deference' to Federal Agencies: What It Means for Employers") Following the decision in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, courts must exercise independent judgment in reviewing the agency's interpretation of the statute. Courts may apply the standard set forth in Skidmore v.

Wisp
We have two very contrasting designs to review this month. The first is this very special design that I’ll call a “weekender” although there’s nothing to stop it from sailing out for a month. The design is from the Stephens Waring design office in Belfast, Maine. The builder is Artisan Boatworks in Rockport, Maine, and construction is wood strip composite with epoxy. There are a lot of interesting details to this design and that’s why I called it special.
