Affirmative action

Positive or constructive action rather than inaction. Affirmative action programs and
regulations attempt to compensate for discriminatory practices that have in the past
denied fair consideration to members of minority groups. For example, an all-white
government office may take steps to hire people of color. Or, a mostly-male college
program may seek to balance its admissions by giving preference to female applicants.
Affirmative action programs are controversial in the present political climate -- many
have recently been eradicated or have come under attack -- and the subject is likely to be
hotly debated for many years to come.

Act of God

An extraordinary and unexpected natural event, such as a hurricane, tornado, earthquake

or even the sudden death of a person. An act of God may be a defense against liability for
injuries or damages. Under the law of contracts, an act of God often serves as a valid
excuse if one of the parties to the contract is unable to fulfill his or her duties -- for
instance, completing a construction project on time.
Malcolm Zoraik Alternate beneficiary
A person, organization or institution that receives property through a will, trust or
insurance policy when the first named beneficiary is unable or refuses to take the
property. For example, in his will Jake leaves his collection of sheet music to his
daughter, Mia, and names the local symphony as alternate beneficiary. When Jake dies,
Mia decides that the symphony can make better use of the sheet music than she can, so
she refuses (disclaims) the gift, and the manuscripts pass directly to the symphony. In
insurance law, the alternate beneficiary, usually the person who receives the insurance
proceeds because the initial or primary beneficiary has died, is called the secondary or
contingent beneficiary.
