Greatness …
We have you covered! We were honored to share this beautiful evening, surrounded by incredible company on the parking lot of the Delaware County Bar Association for a “Cover Party” in celebration of the Delco re:View, Spring Issue, 2021, featuring the Honorable Charles B. Burr, II, and the Honorable Frank T. Hazel. It cannot be questioned that both offer living proof that “Greatness is not a destination; it is a continuous and unending journey!
Hon. Charles B. Burr, II … “This uncompromising commitment to excellence is what makes being a Judge such an exhilarating challenge, an ‘awe’ful responsibility, one full of awe! To be doing everyday what you enjoy doing is rare. But rarer still is to be doing what you were meant to do.”
Hon. Frank T. Hazel … “We don’t make things we sell. When we do something, we affect the quality of lives, we therefore strive for excellence.”
It is not his last “at bat” … Judge Hazel continues to serve our membership with a seat on the Board of Directors of the Delaware County Bar Association, and, as a valuable, contributing member of the Historical Committee, the Bench Bar Conference Committee, and the newly formed 150th Anniversary Committee to commemorate the sesquicentennial of the Delaware County Bar Association in 2022. In “V Formation” … those with ongoing dedication to the highest standards of the legal profession and the rule of law.

Editor’s Note: Fascinating! The QR Code (an initialism for Quick Response code), a type of matrix barcode invented in 1994 by the Japanese automotive company Denso Wave for the purpose of tracking vehicles during manufacturing, was designed to allow highspeed component scanning. QR codes are now used over a much wider range of applications. These include commercial tracking, entertainment and transport ticketing, product and loyalty marketing and in-store product labeling. QR Codes gained popularity, especially in the Hospitality industry, with the spread of the COVID-19 virus. They are used as a “touchless” system to display information, show menus, or provide updated consumer information. The initial design of the QR Code was influenced by the game of “Go,” an abstract strategy board game for two players in which the aim is to surround more territory than the opponent. The game is played with a standard Go board, a 19×19 grid of lines containing 361 points, and black and white playing pieces called stones. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and is believed to be the oldest board game continuously played to the present day. Go was considered one of the four essential arts of the cultured aristocratic Chinese scholars in antiquity. The earliest written reference to the game is generally recognized as the historical annal Zuo Zhuan (c. 4th century BCE). Despite its relatively simple rules, Go is extremely complex. Compared to Chess, Go has both a larger board with more scope for play and longer games and, on average, many more alternatives to consider per move. The number of legal board positions in Go has been calculated to be approximately 2.1×10170, which is vastly greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe, estimated to be of the order of 1080. •
