Cubs World Series Hat

Finally, Stewart testified that he routinely relied on National Weather Usa Flag Hat Service reports in conducting fire investigations and did so here; the report for November 27, 2005 for Decatur, Texas, was introduced into evidence and showed that the average wind speed at approximately 11:45 a.m. was 20.7 miles per hour with gusts to 31.1 miles per hour. Stewart opined that wind, no matter how strong, would not be capable of detaching a service line that had been properly crimped into a connector. AHC's expert Freeman Reisner testified that he worked as a consulting engineer for Haag Engineering where he performed failure analysis. Previously, he had worked for thirteen years for San Angelo Electric Service Company repairing distribution transformers and motors and other types of electric equipment.

At Haag Engineering, he had performed at least 1,000 fire investigations. Reisner's testimony from the first trial was admitted as an exhibit in the second trial. The connector comes with a plastic cover and little caps on each end. And when two wires need to be connected, the connector, whoever is doing the connecting, strips the end of the wire so they're bare and they insert them one in each end typically, one at a time, and you insert them and then Usa Olympic Hat crimp in an area on the connector and check it; and then put another wire in the other end and crimp it and then check it. The ends are puncturable real easily by the wire so you don't have to poke a hole in it or anything. You just poke the wires in either end. Reisner testified that to properly join two wires, the connector attaching them must be Usa Hockey Hat crimped on both sides.

He said that the Burndy Insulink connector at issue here showed no evidence that it was crimped on the side from which the service wire became disconnected. Finally, Reisner opined that the service wire became detached from the Burndy Insulink connector because it was not crimped on the side where it detached. According to Reisner, if an Insulink is properly crimped, it will hold a service line "indefinitely." Wise Electric's expert Forest Smith is an electrical engineer who works for "a company that does investigations primarily for insurance companies but sometimes other companies as well." He performed his investigation of the fire four days after it occurred. He testified that the Insulink that is the subject of the lawsuit was installed by Wise Electric but also noted that the utility pole had "Romex" World Series Hat 11 installed on it that was not installed by Wise Electric.

And then, finally, there is the stage in which a hypothesis, if it passed the test, becomes a theory, and then the theory becomes the basis for perhaps making a call on the cause of and the origin of a fire. Applying the scientific method, Smith was unable to make a determination regarding the cause of the fire because he said an origin had not been determined. He did not determine that the area of origin was at pole number 04610; that was not in the scope of his investigation. Smith explained that, using the scientific method, he could not eliminate several hypotheses as possible causes for the service line becoming disconnected from the Insulink; he could not eliminate the possibility that the Insulink had failed prior to the fire, that the wind had caused it to disconnect, or that someone "a party perhaps putting up this piece of Romex" had forcibly pulled the service line out of the Insulink.

Startz owns Startz Insurance Salvage, and he is a licensed and experienced salvor, which he defined as a documentation, evaluation, and liquidation specialist. Startz had prior salvor experience with smoke-damaged clothing. In Startz's experience, smoke odor cannot be removed from clothing. As part of the counting, Startz and his crew classified the damaged hats into their three stages of production: stage one, stage two, or stage three. They also categorized the damaged hats by their location at the time of the fire: either inside the plant or outside in the sea containers. Startz generated a 114 page spreadsheet itemizing each of the 490,092 hats and hat bodies by stage of manufacture, type, color, and location; he provided his report and the spreadsheet to Travelers and to AHC in 2005 after the fire.

In 2008, AHC hired Startz to assess the inventory's value. Utilizing the Cubs World Series Hat spreadsheet he had previously generated for Travelers that individually documented each of the 490,092 hats in AHC's inventory at the time of the fire, Startz requested invoices for the purchase of the various hat bodies. Purchase invoices did not exist for most of AHC's hat inventory because Maddox had purchased AHC out of foreclosure more than two and one-half years before the fire and had acquired its inventory without accompanying invoices. To determine a value for the inventory lacking invoices, Startz "utilized like-similar invoicing to come up with the values," [img]https://www.showurwork.com/images/large/usa flag hat-788huz.jpg[/img] which Startz said was standard practice in the salvor business.
