The Even Bigger World

The word "awesome" is overused for thousands of things that are not awesome.

Now THIS - IS awesome.

NASA's 30-Minute 4K Video of the Sun of our Solar System

See the video at http://www.gizmag.com/nasa-4k-video-sun/40218/

That's what keeps our world turning.
Without that "ancient" warmth, forget it.


How old is our Sun? It is middle-aged at about 4.5 billion years old.

The "Ancient World" of mankind is really not old at all in comparison.


It pays to keep things in perspective in our "modern" world.

The Bigger World

As a former associate in the "Corporate Department" of Paul, Weiss et al.
we were pleased today to read that our former law firm, the international

Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison,
headquartered in New York City,

was selected as the
"Law Firm of the Year in Corporate Law"
in the just issued
2016 U.S. News - Best Lawyers® "Best Law Firms" research report
covering more than 12,000 law firms in the United States.

We were of the opinion that it was the best way back THEN (in the 1970's),
and so it has remained, viz. and so it is again.

Quality breeds quality.

Many Paul, Weiss alumni are also "movers"
in diverse fields outside of law practice all over the world.
You can be sure.
