Chris Pratt stars as Garfield in new animated film
In the eagerly-awaited animated film, The Garfield Movie, Chris Pratt takes on the iconic role of the lasagna-loving, Monday-hating cat, Garfield. The recently-released trailer provides the first look at Pratt’s portrayal, joined by the voices of Samuel L. Jackson as Garfield’s father, Vic, and Nicholas Hoult as Jon, Garfield’s frustrated owner. Directed by Mark Dindal, known for animated classics such as The Emperor's New Groove, the movie is set to revive the beloved character for a new generation. Scheduled to release on May 24, 2024, the film marks Garfield’s return to the big screen after nearly two decades, in a unique blend of animation and live-action. With a star-studded cast and a fresh take on the classic cat’s adventures, The Garfield Movie promises to captivate audiences with its humour and charm.
The Case of the Velvet Claws
The Case of the Velvet Claws (1933) introduces criminal defense lawyer and detective Perry Mason and Della Street, his secretary. Perry is hired by Eva Belter, who’s being blackmailed and soon falls under suspicion for murder.
The book sets the stage for one of the most popular series in crime fiction history. Author Erle Stanley Gardner went on to write 150 books that sold 300 million copies worldwide.

Reflect: Check out the conversation starters below..
Here are some conversation starters and questions to get you thinking about The Case of the Velvet Claws!
Book Comparison – The Case of the Velvet Claws vs. The Maltese Falcon
Two books leap to mind as a comparison to Velvet Claws. The first is The Maltese Falcon. The second is The Innocence of Father Brown. In many ways, The Case of the Velvet Claws mirrors The Maltese Falcon. There’s a hardboiled detective in a sparsely furnished office, his Girl Friday faithful secretary, and a vicious, double-crossing, beautiful lady client. Each secretary even chides him on his behavior. Della Street is Effie Perine-like. Her eyes see far below the surface.
Then the contrasts begin. Effie Perine in The Maltese Falcon is totally taken in by the wonderful Miss Wonderly. Her feminine intuition is way off. Della immediately hates Eva Belter and spends most of the book excoriating her.
When both secretaries chide their “chief,” it’s for not doing enough for their client. When Effie scolds Sam, Effie doesn’t understand that Wonderly is a cold-blooded murderer and feels that Sam betrayed her by turning her over to the cops. When Della scolds Perry Mason in The Case of the Velvet Claws, she understands exactly what Eva is but feels that Perry has somehow betrayed himself and his own ethics.
In The Maltese Falcon, Wonderly is Sam’s love interest, the woman he’s drawn to in spite of everything. One feels that if he ever wanted to settle down into a stable domestic life, he should probably go for an Effie, but that’s not who he is, and Effie’s love goes unrequited.
Perry, on the other hand, ignores several of Eva’s attempts at flirtation. Instead, it’s Della who he loves and whose respect he craves.
Whereas Spade can blow Effie off for being on the wrong track, Perry pleads with Della to have confidence in him.
What Most Attorneys Are Like …
In The Case of the Velvet Claws, Mason tells Eva, “Most of the attorneys that you’ve consulted have had expensive suites of offices and a lot of clerks running in and out. You’ve paid them big money and haven’t had anything much to show for it. They’ve bowed and scraped when you came in the room, and charged you big retainers. But when you get in a real jam you don’t dare to go to them.”
“I’m different. I get my business because I fight for it, and because I fight for my clients. … People that come to me don’t come to me because they like the looks of my eyes, or the way my office is furnished, or because they’ve known me at a club. They come to me because they need me.”

Influencers, advertising and social media | S3 EP5
Influencer advertising on social media is one of the most pervasive and effective forms of marketing, but consumers are not always aware that an advertisement is being promoted as such. While the lines are blurred, both consumers and brands need to understand that these increasingly ubiquitous marketing tactics are coming under scrutiny by government regulators. Erin Brown and Vic Domen join us to share their perspectives on what regulators in Canada and the US are concerned with and the penalties for influencers who donât disclose their brand connections, sharing best practices for both brands and influencers.
Erin Brown is a senior associate in our Ottawa office whose practice focuses on a wide variety of regulatory issues, including competition, antitrust law, international trade, economic sanctions and export controls, as well as customs and procurement. Vic Domen is a partner in our Washington, DC, office, and is a government antitrust investigations and prosecutions lawyer. As a former enforcer, Vic has a unique perspective on the priorities of government agencies, as well as the challenges clients may encounter.

Aussies Warned Not To Build As Construction Firms Go Bust
Since the Federal Government introduced the Home Builder grants program, thousands of Aussies have excitedly applied for the financial assistance to help fulfil their dream of building or seriously renovating their home.
Unfortunately for many people that dream has turned into a nightmare as dozens of building companies have gone bust, and experts are warning that many more construction firms are vulnerable.
The Quicky speaks to a woman for whom this nightmare is her reality, a guru in construction law, and an expert in supply chain management to find out why this is happening, and what can be done to protect people who have already invested in their dream home project.

Why Is It So Cold & Where Is All The Lettuce?
In some parts of Australia temperatures have reached 100 year lows, with much of the country feeling a lot colder than usual which is having serious impacts on our power grid and food prices.
But why is this winter off to such a chilly start, especially when we keep hearing that global warming is a serious problem? And how is this causing sky high food prices and a shortage of lettuce on supermarket shelves?
The Quicky speaks to a weather expert, a guru in our fruit and vegetable industry, and a lettuce farmer to find out what the heck is going on, and when and if things will get back to normal.

Drowning In Admin: Why 60% Of Teachers Want To Quit
New research has found that more than half of all Aussie teachers are planning to quit their jobs, as low wages, excessive amounts of admin and poor working conditions continue to take their toll.
But is it really all that bad, and if so, why isn't more being done to help them stay in the job they love, and that is so important within our community?
The Quicky speaks to two teachers, one who has resigned and one who is thinking about quitting, to find out how the situation has become so bad, and what can change to ensure that people who dedicate themselves to educating children stick with their career.

Election Explainer: Everything You Want To Know But Are Too Afraid To Ask
It's now less than two weeks until 17 million Aussies will head to the local polling station to cast their vote in the Federal election and hopefully get a free democracy sausage to celebrate.
But what happens if you don't know who to vote for? Or maybe you don't really understand how our preferential voting system works anyway? And how do you cut through all the noise and work out who actually stands for what?
The Quicky speaks to an expert in Australian politics to answer some of your biggest questions that you've always wanted to know about elections and voting, so you can feel confident when you go to choose your favourite candidate on May 21.

Is There Any Point Voting For Independents?
We are often told that voting for an independent candidate is a 'wasted vote' because they don't have enough power to actually make any real change - but is that true, or just what the major parties want us to believe?

What You Should Know Before Getting A Booster
The NSW, VIC and SA governments recently decided to reduce the time between our second COVID-19 jab and third booster shots to just three months, but does the shorter timeframe mean your vaccine could be less effective?
And what about choosing between Pfizer or Moderna; how do you know which one you should get? Does it matter? Does it depend on which vaccine you had for round one and two?
The Quicky speaks to our favourite GP to find out the answers to these and many more questions about Australia's booster program, including whether there is any truth to reports that a third injection can miraculously heal a variety of skin conditions overnight.

I Can’t Believe I’m Still Searching For A RAT
If you've tried to get any kind of Covid-19 test in the past few weeks, you have probably come up against long queues and delayed wait times for results from PCR testing, and in the cast of Rapid Antigen Tests, high prices if you can even find one.
But why has getting a test for coronavirus become so difficult two years into the pandemic? Did the Federal Government not buy enough tests? Are the testing labs not working fast enough? Are shops holding back on available supplies of RATs so they can price gouge?
The Quicky speaks to a GP and an expert in Australian health care to find out why the testing system has ground to a halt across the country, and when we can expect the situation to improve so we can finally start 'living with Covid'.

What The Djokovic Case Says About Australia’s Borders
It's been nearly a week since Novak Djokovic landed in Australia only to find that his Covid-19 vaccine exemption was deemed to be invalid and his visa cancelled, and refusing to leave the country he was escorted to hotel detention to await the outcome of an appeal.
It has caused nothing short of outrage on both sides in Australia and stunned those observing from overseas, but what is this really all about? Is this one man's vaccine status the crux of the issue, or is it really about the impending election, or how we treat refugees?
The Quicky speaks to an Australian politics expert and a human rights lawyer to find out what we should really be focusing on instead of the plight of one very wealthy, privileged man who is ultimately free to leave any time he wants.

2022: Can We Come To Terms With COVID-19?
We're just over a week into 2022, and already the news headlines are full of scary daily case numbers, hospitalisations and deaths, so how can we prepare ourselves for the next 12 months without feeling desperate?
