-Does Juan Martinez Need a Time Out? +How to Find Landscaper ​for Your HOA
- +
-Juan Martinez has shown himself ​to be very direct interrogator. If he asks a yes or no question, he wants a yes or no answer, not some drawn-out explanation. The prosecutor is attempting to obtain justice ​for Travis Alexander, who was brutally murdered on June 4, 2008 by his then-lover Jodi Arias. She faces the death penalty if convicted, but she is trying to get off on self defense, claiming she was abused by the deceased and she did it to save her own life. +
-As Mr. Martinez cross-examined domestic violence "​expert"​ Alyce LaViolette on Tuesday, she said, "If you were in my group, I would ask you take a time out, Mr. Martinez,"​ likely referring to the aggressive interrogation tactics he has used. This led to further scolding by Judge Sherry Stephens, who has had to give many instructions to this witness especially, as she tries to dodge and weasel around the prosecution'​s questions. During her testimony last Thursday, she asked, "Mr. Martinez are you angry at me?" which led to throngs of laughter from court spectators. Not really a laughing matter, but there has to be light among the darkness, right? An interesting point was brought up, though: Did Ms. LaViolette view Ms. Arias'​s testimony? Her attitude seems to imply so, but that's against the rules, right? +
-Though Ms. LaViolette was berated by the judge, her performance is unbecoming of a professional,​ which she claims to be. Her quippy little retorts seem to be betraying her "​expert"​ status. And at a rate of $300 an hour for her testimony, you'd think there would be more focus on Jodi Arias'​s personality and the murder of Travis Alexander, rather than the incessant talk of fairy tales, like whether or not Snow White was a battered woman. Ridiculous. +
-Juan Martinez seems to be exacerbating his point, that he believes Ms. LaViolette to be guilty of bias, showing that she prejudicially judged evidence to favor Ms. Arias. She is claiming that it is obvious that Jodi was a victim of abuse at the hands of Alexander, that he was controlling and hurtful, cracking her already fragile self esteem. Some say that Jodi Arias seems to be pretty self confident, and, really, happy with herself overall, as she showed in her 18 days on the stand, not telling about the day she murdered the man she "​loved."​ But if Jodi was lying when she said all that other stuff, why is she to be believed now? What says that this is the true story? And if she was lying, then all the evidence this expert has looked through could be filled with lies, which would make her determination of domestic violence invalid, wouldn'​t it? +
-Before the trial began on January 2, it was believed it would go on into April. However, at the end of court today, the judge asked the jurors to check their calendars for a few dates, leading into May. The dates were Fridays, which is a day court is not normally in session. Perhaps they are finally seeing a need to get this wrapped up, as Jodi Arias'​s defense is already costing Arizona taxpayers over $1.4 million. Even so, it seems there will be several more weeks before a verdict will be rendered. Are the jurors following the prosecution'​s path, or do they see the possibility in Jodi's third tale of what happened to her lover. Mr. Martinez is to resume his cross-examination on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. PST. [[http://​verchini.com/​that-lung|that lung]] +

 +Home Owner’s Associations feature a very important role in the development of communities. They have great responsibilities including managing the assets of the community, and assigning the right people for major roles in the association. One of the responsibilities of the HOA is community development that involves landscaping. Here are some tips to help you hire a good landscaper for your HOA.
 + 
 +Look for an all-rounder
 + 
 +Certain landscape firms have contractors and professionals who handle everything associated with landscaping your community. This involves landscaper, gardeners, irrigation crew, and water companies to contribute towards the entire process of landscaping. Hire a company that undertakes all of these tasks. It would be cost-effective,​ and will save you a lot of time wasted in worrying about different contractors.
 + 
 +Good reviews often come from successes
 + 
 +Check the internet for reviews of different landscape firms. You can also contact your neighboring communities to inquire about other landscapers. It is likely that you will come across a list of landscapers who have been given great reviews for their work. Visit other communities to gain a perspective about their work, and draw up a list of potential landscape firms you would like to hire.
 + 
 +First meeting reveals a lot of information
 + 
 +When you meet with people from different landscaping companies, be alert as you request for more information about their services. Evaluate their responses and analyze if they respond well to you. Make a mental note of how responsive they are when you contact them, as that would tell you if they communicate matters to you well in time. Check if they are well-adapted to technology so that they can stay in touch with the HOA through emails, and social media to post updates about their work.
 + 
 +If you find a contractor that satisfies the needs of the community and the HOA, with skills and service, then hire immediately. It is alright if a few people are not happy about it. Make a judgment based on the majority poll at the HOA, and stick to it as you can derive good results from a great landscape contractor.
