The Effects of Official English Laws on Limited-English-Proficient Workers

Working Paper 98-4a
April 1998
Revised December 1998
Download the full text of this paper (92 KB)
Workers with limited English skills may suffer adverse effects in the labor market when states declare English the official language. If employers view official English laws as allowing or requiring them to adopt workplace English-only rules that lower the demand for limited-English-proficient workers, such laws may harm individuals who do not speak English very well. Using data from the 1980 and 1990 Census, I estimate whether the earnings and other labor market outcomes of workers who have limited English proficiency and live in states that adopted official English laws declined relative to other workers'. The results suggest a substantial decline in the annual earnings of men with limited English proficiency.
JEL classification: J71, J78
Key words: official English, English only, discrimination

Dates in fleet: 6/7/07 to 6/18/07
Okay, so you spend this much money and you get an antenna from 1988? What gives? It becomes apparent—in the event you hadn't noticed it had it by the time you got behind the wheel—once you near 75 mph when you hear the whistling from this cat's derrière.
Since we are on the topic of sounds, can you say exhaust? Can you say it again? Yeah, it's that good. This cat purrs like it's mating season. The deep gurgling is music to my ears. You want to use the paddle shifters to downshift on deceleration so you can get some backfiring.

I am wondering about quitting my full time job but wait until my earnings will cover my salary 3x. Hope, I will do it soon
Coriiander said
How? The answer is very simple: "Just start doing it."
I just started doing this here 2 months ago. I'm in a very complicated real-life situation in which there aren't many other options available for me anymore. Brain damage, physical injury due to violence on the street, etc. I won't be able to get a job anymore, for everone thinks I'm a medical risk. I live on a very low wellfare at the moment. It's tight. But, since about 8 weeks I'm now spending 80-100 (or even slightly more at times) hours per week into music. Simply fulltime. I sold everything I owned and invested it in better, more expressive instruments. I've been living on crackers with peanut-butter, etc. Now, well, I made $26,70 in these 2 months, while spended thousands. But I know for sure, believe me, believe me, that one can do ANYTHING he wants. Really. It takes commitment, drive, passion and reason. I know that for me it will become alright, although I still have alot to learn. And if you think about this, it will be alright for you too. But do realize: becoming succesful in whatever you do, whether that's here, or painting, or software programming or whatever: it doesn't come by itself. It's hard work. I have the luck to live in an area where quite some famous artists live – some friends as well. They've been my inspiration and proof for many years about how commitment pays off in the end – in the end, not instantly. And if it wasn't for other people to be proof: hey, I learned to walk again. I survived death twice, including cancer. You don't ask yourself: how. You just fight for it. Simple as that.
In case it won't work out for myself, I still have one final option left, which I definately don't want, so it's even more reason for me to be all-in 16/7 in this, no matter what it takes. I'll live on peanutbutter, no problem, at least I'm alive and working on something eventhough at times it's hopeless. But continue, continue, continue, never EVER give in.
Commit, learn, grow, and have faith. Really.
Good luck man, I really hope you achieve your goals.

Hi first of all, I wish you all the best..and'd like to know what's the city of Netherlands you live, cause I'm planning to leave my country (italy) and join a place where music is a "nornal job". Thank you
When I got bored with other job! that's it
Yes, persistence is the key, just like others have said that here. Besides that, you have to BELIEVE that it will work fine and then you'll accomplish this dream sooner than you would think!
Firsh said+1
Isn't it catch 22? You need to be a full time author to make the amount of money that's enough to quit your job and become a full time author I guess just start doing your best and fast, dedicate enough time and you'll see. It's much easier if your start when you still have a lot of time (young), and when you don't have to work yet (when living with parents).
Geon said
I would like to know your thoughts on at which point you can take a dicission to become a Full time author at Envato Market place? Is this depend on the number of items in portfolio or the sale rate or how one can decide this?
Becoming a full-time author has a lot of benefits but also has a lot of risks as it's not a steady income flow and you can't really predict the sales trends in the future. So before quitting your day job:
1) Make sure you already have a steady income flow on Envato established, I would say by the time you earning double your day job salary on Envato then you would be ready to go full-time author.
2) Have a 6 months business plan for when you do go full-time author, have a task list of goals, projects and estimates when you'd get each project done. Also establish partnerships, online advertising, office equipment etc prior to going full-time, so you have everything ready.
3) Save money before quitting your job and keep it as a back up in case you have trouble down the line during the early stages of going full-time author,and remember you can wait as long as 45 days to see profit from your new submissions, so manage your expenditure well in the first few months.
4) When you work full-time author from home, it's easy to work less hard now with all the free-time… so remember to keep motivated and stick to your business plan.

...Besides that, you have to BELIEVE that it will work fine and then you'll accomplish this dream sooner than you would think!
hahaha! Is this the way our life works? I mean author life
I never believed someday my entire earnings will happen through this way – but I just "wanted" this and it worked. There is a difference between belief and need. Sometimes "belief" will permanently separate someone from most needed things. We can't believe something just because of our need and we may not need something just because we believe it to happen.
Also persistence and belief are not really connected!
You guys are really genius. Appreciated all your valuable support. 4 points are great mentioned by digitalscience.
One more question: Are you guys are doing so much sale alone or do you have small group of designers, developers with you? I think if I need to reach such sale fugures, I would need to make partnership with other.
Thanks again Geon
I'm also thinking about this right now. Thanks to digitalscience

from Off Grid Survival:
Emergency Preparedness Planners Are not Planning on Saving you during a Disaster!
I've talked to a number of these people over the years, and two thing always become glaringly obvious. First, these people usually despise anyone outside there Ivy League discussion groups – especially anyone who calls themselves a prepper. Second, they have no idea how to help people become better prepared, and many of them have no idea how to respond to an actual emergency.
Let's briefly deal with the first point, because I believe they're behavior is a huge problem – one that is likely to cost many lives.

6 Best Airline Luxury Perks
Airline travel isn't abundantly filled with the luxuries of days past—tuning in to an episode of the ABC drama "Pan Am" is proof of that. However, if you do spring for a first-class ticket on some airlines you receive extras like violin music, a massage, or caviar. Even some economy-class tickets offer pampering and convenience, with a small fee. Here are the six best reasons to either up your seat class, or kick in a bit more money for a luxury perk.

This is my second week in developing my first Wordpress theme and experiencing with it so my skills and knowledge are still very limited. Here is the theme I'm converting: http://demo.knarsku.com/insidesign/
Right now I'm creating those "headers" just above box rows but because I haven't before even used Wordpress so I don't know is this good way to handle it:
[headline]Why hire us[/headline]
[subtitle]This is subtitle[/subtitle]
[button color="orange"]Get in touch[/button]
[button color="blue"]Read More[/button]
Am I even on the right track?
Sorry if this is obvious and maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're asking here… but shortcodes are something that you need to create in order to use them in pages and posts. So if you're using a shortcode
[header], for example, that means you that you created it somewhere in your theme in order to use it.
Most likely you wouldn't want to use shortcodes there because then you're going to have to tell your user to (1) create a page, (2) put in all these shortcodes exactly how you have them and then (3) set that static page as their frontpage. I think this is kind of weird way to handle your theme's homepage.
It might make more sense to make it a little more dynamic….
You could create a page template and have them set it as their homepage. You could create an options panel to edit different items on that page template.
Or you could could just have your default homepage (index.php) have HTML code structure of all those elements. And configure your theme options to allow them to dymanically put in the different elements.
You could take it a step further and make a couple of the areas "widgetized areas" or "sidebars". For example, the row of boxes you're referring to above could be a widgetized area of boxes that the user could drag any WordPress widget into from Appearance > Widgets.
is this a theme your coding from scratch or are you modding a purchased theme?

Iron Man better watch out for his Iron Woman!
Gwyneth Paltrow is throwing a little shade (all in good fun) toward her "Iron Man 3" co-star, Robert Downey Jr.
The actress spilled some secrets about just how difficult it is to suit up in Tony Stark's butt-kicking armor suit.
PHOTOS: The Sexy Ladies Of Sci-Fi
"It's quite cumbersome, but not so bad. I thought it was going to be terrible because in the first two movies Robert would put on the suit and start sweating, he'd have a nervous breakdown and would meditate and cry. He was in hell," Gwyneth said during an appearance on this week's "Graham Norton Show."
But how did the GOOP guru, who plays Pepper Potts in the latest Marvel movie, feel about the physicality needed to wear the suit?
"So, I was like, 'Wow, I'd better start mentally preparing myself for the suit,' and I put it on and was like, 'This guy is a wimp, it's really not that bad,'" she continued.

"Iron Man 3" opens on May 3.

It is a good read. I will try practicing some of those things the next time I am somewhere that is it allowed...
I especially like this:IMHO too many self-defense experts spend way too much time arguing minor points and over analyzing techniques. Perhaps we should spend more effort heeding the advice of those who have been and done, even if it conflicts with our (untested) cherished beliefs.

I scanned the article and found it very informative.
I've found that I use my sights less the closer the target is aand it depends on how big the target is as well. Sometimes I just "reference" the gun on my target. I'm going to have to try looking at the navel, as I do find that I look where I want the bullets to go at closer ranges.
There's a lot there for me to process, and I look forward to doing so as I think I will learn something. Thank you for posting this.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon will have his side geared up for a "cup final" on Thursday night when they take on Udinese in their crunch Europa League Group I clash in Italy.
Celtic have to win to reach the knockout stages of the tournament, but face a side three points better off in the group and only behind Juventus on goal difference at the top of Serie A.
Moreover, the Hoops have won only once in 32 games on the road in Europe, a fact Lennon acknowledged at the pre-match press conference at the Stadio Friuli, saying: "It is a daunting proposition for any team to come here, but in that respect we know what we have to do."
He added: "We are in good form, off the back of six wins in the league and confidence is good. Each of the Europa games there has been a natural progression, it is a young team who are learning all the time and we will treat it like a cup final.
"It is a great incentive and one that we are all looking forward to. Going into the campaign a lot of people would have made us the whipping boys but we are very pleased with the way the team have played in the previous five games."
Udinese coach Francesco Guidolin would not reveal if he will play his top scorer, 34-year-old striker Antonio Di Natale, and Lennon would gladly see the veteran striker on the bench.
He said: "Di Natale has been a world-class player for a number of years and certainly he has been a consistent goalscorer in Serie A, and an international player of some regard for quite a while.
"However, Udinese are not a one-man team, they have a number of good players in a number of positions, hence that is why they are at the top of Serie A."
Glenn Loovens did not travel after sustaining a hamstring injury against Hearts on Saturday, but Lennon is confident he has the strength in depth to cope with the loss, adding: "Kris Commons, Mark Wilson, Adam Matthews and Joe Ledley are all out of the squad."
"It is a blow to us (to lose Glenn), he has been playing very well. It is two steps forward and one back. Kelvin Wilson is fit and will be in contention. We also have options with Charlie Mulgrew and Victor Wanyama, so we are all right for cover."

German Shorthaired Pointer Health Problems and Raising a German Shorthaired Pointer Puppy to be Healthy
By Michele Welton. Copyright © 2000-2016
Quiz – How Long Will Your Dog Live?
How To Raise a Healthy Dog
Feeding the Best Dog Food
Feeding the 2nd Best Dog Food
Vaccinations: Needed or Not?
Are You Sure Your Vet Is Good?
The most common health problems in German Shorthaired Pointers:
Blood-clotting diseases are a concern in German Shorthairs, especially von Willebrand's disease, thrombocytopathia, and hemophilia.
Heart disease (subaortic stenosis) has become a concern in the breed, and also epilepsy (seizures).
And then there's cancer, which is a problem in virtually every breed, including the German Shorthaired Pointer. The most common cancers that occur in German Shorthairs are fibrosarcoma, melanoma, osteosarcoma, and lymphosarcoma. That's quite a few to be worried about.
The eye diseases that Shorthairs are most vulnerable to are cataracts (appearing at 6-18 months old), cherry eye, entropion, corneal dystrophy, and progressive retinal atrophy (PRA). Because of these eye diseases, blind German Shorthaired Pointers are not uncommon.
Hip dysplasia is always a concern in large breeds, but the Orthopedic Foundation of America evaluated the hip X-rays of 11,625 German Shorthairs and found less than 5% dysplastic. That's good!
Other orthopedic diseases that can occur include elbow dysplasia, osteochondritis, panosteitis, and occasionally hypertrophic osteodystrophy.
Hormonal/endocrine system diseases in the German Shorthaired Pointer include Addison's disease (serious) and hypothyroidism. According to the Michigan State University Thyroid Database, up to 14% of German Shorthairs have low thyroid levels.
As with all deep-chested breeds, German Shorthaired Pointers are at higher-than-normal risk for the emergency gastrointestinal syndrome called bloat.
Skin diseases include chronic allergies (which cause itchy skin and can lead to pyoderma), lupus, demodectic mange, and lick granuloma.
Rare diseases in German Shorthairs are lysosomal storage disease and chondrodysplasia.
Can you prevent health problems from happening to YOUR German Shorthaired Pointer?
Yes, often you can.
- Some health problems are genetic, which means inherited from parents. Genetic health issues are common in German Shorthaired Pointers today because of unwise breeding practices. My book, Dog Quest: Find The Dog Of Your Dreams, shows you how to find a German Shorthaired Pointer puppy who is genetically healthy.
- Other health problems are environmental – caused by the way you raise your dog. My best-selling dog health book, 11 Things You Must Do Right To Keep Your Dog Healthy and Happy shows you how to prevent environmental health problems by raising your German Shorthaired Pointer puppy (or adult dog) in all the right ways.
Here are my dog health tips for raising a healthy German Shorthaired Pointer puppy or adult dog:

Read my advice on daily health care so your German Shorthaired Pointer lives a long, healthy life and seldom needs to see the vet.
The Best Dog Food For Feeding Your German Shorthaired Pointer
The best diet for feeding your German Shorthair is real food. Real chicken, turkey, beef, bison, venison, fish....This is not "people food" and I'll tell you why.

If you can't feed homemade dog food, here are your next-best choices.

Back in November, Judge Grewal ordered that Apple turn over the documents to the court and he says it is "unacceptable" that the company waited three months to verify that it followed his directions. As a result, the judge gave Apple until last Friday, March 8th, to show the court how it collected the documents that it was required to turn over to the plaintiffs. The company was ordered to produce information on the search terms it used, the dates of searches, individuals subject to the searches, and how many documents it turned up. Judge Grewal wants to see how and why Apple's document production has been limited and will offer an opinion on whether Apple made a "good faith and reasonable effort."
mistake". She told the court that Apple's legal team had reviewed 8,000 emails the previous weekend and concluded that they should turn over email messages involving Jobs, marketing head Phil Schiller, and its former head of mobile software Scott Forstall.
But what really set the judge off last week was the admission by the company's Senior litigation manager Lynn Miller in a court filing, that Apple inadvertently failed to turn over to the plaintiffs six documents that it was required to hand over to them. Apple included those documents in a motion to dismiss the case.
The judge's order also gives the plaintiffs an opportunity to see how Apple reviews apps for its mobile devices. Apple had redacted the documents when it originally presented them to the court, saying that the information is a "closely guarded trade secret." Judge Grewal ordered that the information be unredacted and shown "under an attorney's eyes-only" designation.

Defendant in Bolshoi theatre attack says acid use his own idea
By Maria Tsvetkova
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A man charged with throwing acid in the face of the Bolshoi Ballet's artistic director said the dancer accused of ordering the attack had only asked him to hit the victim and the use of acid was his own idea, a Russian court heard on Wednesday.
Testimony in the trial of three men charged in the attack on Sergei Filin also focused on the size and skills of defendant Pavel Dmitrichenko's girlfriend, a dancer who a previous witness said had been passed over for roles by Filin.
Dmitrichenko, 29, and the other defendants face up to 12 years in prison if convicted for the attack last January that nearly blinded Filin and laid bare bitter rivalries behind the scenes at one of Russia's leading cultural institutions.
Dmitrichenko, who denies guilt, has said previously that he gave co-defendant Yuri Zarutsky the green light to hit Filin and phoned Zarutsky on he night of the attack to tell him Filin was heading home, but had not meant for acid to be used.
That contention was supported by excerpts from a transcript of investigators' questioning of Zarutsky which were read out by the judge on Wednesday in the Moscow courtroom where the defendants were confined to a cage.
"Dmitrichenko thought that I would beat Filin, but I decided to douse him with acid," the judge quoted Zarutsky, a neighbour of Dmitrichenko, as saying. "I told nobody about this, not even Dmitrichenko."
Filin's eyesight remains impaired despite more than 20 operations, mostly in Germany where he spent months in hospital.
Asked in court on Wednesday whether Dmitrichenko had asked him to beat up or hit Filin, Zarutsky said: "Hit him - yes." Continued...

Boot Camp Workshop Quick Link
Students learn more when they are engaged in their education. Active learning is an approach to instruction in which students are dynamic participants in their education as they gain, retain, and enhance their knowledge, understanding, and abilities. At Victoria College, we promote an educational environment where faculty and staff create a framework and where students are prepared and actively participate in order to improve student success
Victoria College developed the Center for Academic and Professional Excellence (CAPE) to foster student success by offering training and development opportunities to faculty and staff. The professional development provided through the QEP will focus on establishing the "framework" for students to participate and be engaged on the VC campus.
By using active learning to enhance critical thinking, VC is committed to our priority goal number one: fostering student success. To be the best WE can be in our efforts to achieve our mission, Boot Camp is designed to provide a variety of opportunities for faculty and staff to develop in six key areas:
Assessment (Black)
Communication (Blue)
Learning Styles & Active Learning (Silver)
Management (Pink)
Motivation & Engagement (Green)
Technology (Red)
Back to top
There are a variety of workshops presented each week, lasting approximately 50 minutes each. Due to limited seating, faculty and staff are asked to pre-register for workshops. Workshop titles, categories, descriptions, registration links and directions are all available on the CAPE TeamUp Calendar, which is accessed through CAPE's Workshops page.

Get in on the Action...and Earn a Little Cash*!
Workshops will be led or facilitated by VC

workshop, seminar, or facilitated webinar through CAPE in each of the categories. Successful completion of this series of professional
development opportunities will earn the participant a Boot Camp
Certificate and a stipend*. Faculty and staff have
the opportunity to earn three certificates throughout the duration
of the QEP (September 2014 - August 2019).
*At most one stipend may be awarded per fiscal year. Participants who complete more than one level will be awarded their stipend after the next fiscal year provided they are still a regular VC employee. Part-time or non-exempt employees must seek supervisor approval for hours worked and workshop attendance. Supervisors of less-than-full-time or non-exempt employees should consult with HR prior to approving workshop attendance.

'The Big Muddy: An Environmental History of the Mississippi' ... a review
"The Big Muddy" follows centuries of human efforts to conceptualize this landscape of mud as a place with firm barriers between water and land, and then make these conceptions reality. A few examples: early French explorers repeatedly failed to locate the mouth of the Mississippi out of an inability to imagine a vast, multi-channeled delta. Rice, and then indigo, tobacco, and sugar encouraged settlers to drain, divide, and levee the landscape.

Silver City's Town Council held its regular meeting on Tuesday June 26, 2012, at 6 pm.
Mayor James Marshall called for Public Input. Town resident Alan Mong reported that people are using sections of Pope Street as a landfill: piles of furniture, lumber, plastic, garbage, diapers are creating a fire hazard. Mr. Mong urged the town to take action before the fire hazard becomes worse.
In their opening remarks, Mayor James Marshall and the four Town Councilors thanked everyone who helped with uncrating and unboxing the pieces of pottery in the NAN Ranch Collection, which has returned to WNMU.
In the Reports segment of the Town Council meeting, Lee Gruber, owner of Syzygy Tile Factory and director of the first Silver City Clay Festival to be held August 3-5, updated the Council on the progress of the Festival. The Global Center for Cultural Entrepreneurship, in partnership with the Silver City Arts and Cultural District Coordinating Council and cultural entrepreneur Lee Gruber, is launching the first-ever Silver City Clay Festival. Lee Gruber's passion for clay, mud and earth gave birth to the Clay Festival.
Clay has figured prominently in the history of the Southwest, and has evolved into a signature art form of Grant County and the surrounding regions, creating a "clay Corridor." Thousands of years ago, the distinctive Mimbreño pottery was developed in this region; today Silver City's Western New Mexico State University houses the largest collection of Mimbreño pottery in the United States.
The three-day Festival will offer 14 workshops, lectures, films, tours, exhibitions and mural projects. Pottery, tiles, and clay sculpture from a wide range of styles will be on display and available for purchase, including Art Deco terracotta architectural elements, handmade functional tile, and contemporary mosaic art. Festival highlights include two juried art shows with renowned jurors Alfredo Ratinoff and Dr. Harry Shafer. There will be a Black & White Gala Opening Reception on August 4 to celebrate this collaborative event, $50/person, black and white dress encouraged, cocktail attire, contact museum for more information and invitation http://www.wnmumuseum.org/calendar.html. For more information on the festival go to www.clayfestival.com.
During the Business segment of the meeting, the Town Council approved:
1. Public Celebration Permit Application for the Juried Neo-Mimbreńo 2012 Exhibition and Black and White Gala Opening Reception at the Western New Mexico University Museum, 1000 W. College Avenue, Silver City, NM. License Holder: St. Clair Winery, License #6130. Philip Cave, assistant director of the WNMU Museum, reported that the Exhibition would showcase the recent creative efforts of artists throughout the Southwest Region influenced by the extraordinary painted pottery of the prehistoric Mimbres culture featured at WNMU Museum.
2. 11/12-22: Library Renovation Rebid. Bigelow Construction had he low bid at $473,234.91, monies which will come out of dedicated funds for capital improvements.
3. Agreement between the Town of Silver City and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), Council No. 18, Local No. 3370, from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2014.
4. Appointments to Library Board: Theodore J. Lynn, Jr. and Karlene Colgan
The Council then called an executive session pursuant to NMSA 1978 Section 10-15-1(H) for the following reasons:
1. meetings subject to the attorney-client privilege pertaining to threatened or pending litigation in which the public body is or may become a participant;
2. meetings for the discussion of the purchase, acquisition or disposal of real property or water rights by the public body.

MDA telethon raises $59.6M
TUCSON, Ariz. — The Muscular Dystrophy Association's nationally broadcast 48th annual telethon and related fundraising efforts have raised about a million dollars more than last year with $59.6 million in contributions over the Labor Day weekend.
The two-hour "MDA Show of Strength" aired Sunday on ABC. MDA President and CEO Steven M. Derks said the money raised will go toward treatment of muscular dystrophy and related diseases, and funding of research to find a cure.
A release from the association said the total amount raised came from pledges during the show and through midnight Monday, as well as money raised by MDA sponsors.
Celebrities including "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest and "Brady Bunch" mom Florence Henderson were part of the show's lineup this year, along with the Backstreet Boys, singer Paula Abdul and other entertainers.
The telethon was the third since comedian Jerry Lewis's 45-year role as host ended. Kelli Park, a spokeswoman for the Tucson, Ariz.-based MDA, says the 2012 telethon raised $58.7 million last year.

CLEVELAND — A northeast Ohio couple had planned every detail of their wedding — except for the sound check of a Beach Boys concert next door during their ceremony.
A few bars of "God Only Knows" played as Mark Kent and Jaime Diadium exchanged vows next to the Jacobs Pavilion at Nautica in Cleveland last month.
The Plain Dealer in Cleveland reported that when the band found out about the timing of its sound check, the newlyweds' guests were told they could attend the concert for free. Many of them wandered over for a couple of songs.
When the bride stopped by the concert, she was brought on stage for the encore and played the tambourine next to Mike Love as he sang "Fun, Fun, Fun."

LONDON — With flying pigs and wigs, Lady Gaga debuted her "ARTPOP" songs at the iTunes Festival.
The pop star performed seven new songs, as she headlined the event at London's Roundhouse Sunday night.
It is Gaga's first solo show since she had hip surgery in February. The concert started with her swinging over the audience in a cage and involved many on-stage costume changes, elaborate wigs and dancers in hazard suits wearing pig masks, hanging from the ceiling.
The songs included "Jewels & Drugs" — a rap number featuring T.I. — pop song "Sex Dreams" and ballad "I Wanna Be With You."
Also featured was the title track of Gaga's new album, "ARTPOP," which is to be released on Nov. 11.
iTunes Festival continues throughout September with Elton John, Justin Timberlake and Katy Perry on the lineup.

BERLIN — Actor Michael Douglas says he doesn't have a crisis at home and that he and his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones "are fine" and taking a "temporary separation."
Douglas was speaking in Berlin on Monday while promoting Liberace film "Behind the Candelabra."
In response to a question from the media, he said "I have a crisis at home? No, I think the press has a crisis. We, we are fine. My wife and I are, are fine. We take a temporary separation, but the press, it gives you stuff to write about."
Zeta-Jones, 43, and Douglas, 68, were married in 2000. They have two children. He battled throat cancer in 2010 and made headlines this summer when he spoke out about one potential cause, oral sex.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
I'd like to tell you a story about why I help people who have claims against insurance companies. Its 1991 and I'm a law student living out-of-state when my mom calls to tell me she's been burglarized. She is scared and upset. Fortunately nothing sentimental is stolen. I naively tell mom that her homeowners insurance will compensate her for the things that were taken.
It turns out that the claim process is more upsetting for mom than the break in. They make her jump through all kinds of unnecessary hoops and try to low ball her on the value of the claim. The insurance company, who she has been with for over 20 years, treats her like she did something wrong.
I do everything I can to help, but at this time I don't really know how insurance companies work and what can be done to make them to treat mom fairly. We feel helpless at the company's "take it or leave it" attitude.
Over the past 20 years, I have learned how to level the playing field for people like my mom. In the courthouse, insurance companies have to answer to a jury, not shareholders. While most cases do not go to trial, you need the leverage of a trial to make them treat you fairly.
If you have been injured through no fault of your own and are facing an insurance company alone, please give me a call. I'd be glad to help.

'America's Got Talent' Contestant Tim Poe Caught in Elaborate Lie About Military Past
Country contestant Tim Poe won the judges over on 'America's Got Talent' on Monday (June 4) with his rendition of 'If Tomorrow Never Comes' by Garth Brooks. The fact that Poe stuttered and claimed to be suffering from brain damage as a result of serving his country in Afghanistan helped to win people over even more, since America (and reality competition show judges in general) love an underdog or a heartwarming story. However, it seems that Poe may not have been entirely truthful about his injuries.

Brad Paisley and Hank Williams Jr. 'Get Drunk and Play Hank Williams' at 2012 CMT Awards
The 2012 CMT Awards, which took place tonight (June 6), were too big for the auditorium, metaphorically speaking. Therefore, the live duet of 'I'm Gonna Get Drunk and Play Hank Williams,' performed by Hank Williams Jr. with an assist from Brad Paisley, was too much to be contained by a venue with a roof, so the superstars performed it outside. What a treat for fans!
Pistol Annies Perform 'Takin' Pills' at 2012 CMT Music Awards

Dierks Bentley's father, Leon Bentley, died on Friday, June 1. The singer was forced to cancel shows beforehand, and in the wake of his dad's death, tweeted the news to fans, thanking them for their support. He also took a moment to reflect on the fact that his father was his biggest influence in country music, since his dad's listening habits turned him onto the genre as a young kid.
The Band Perry Are Stalked, Caught Up in Jewel Heist in 'Postcard From Paris' Video
In the Band Perry's new 'Postcard From Paris' video, Kimberly and her brothers are seen hanging out in the French Quarter of New Orleans (not exactly Paris itself, but close enough, right?). The storyline-driven clip — which features minimal performance footage, save for the band singing in front of black and white "Wanted" signs and photos — shows the adorable blonde being watched by an admirer from afar. Since she is constantly flanked by her siblings, they are indirectly being watched, as well. But Kimberly is clearly the focus of the follower.
Dierks Bentley's Father Dies

Country-Pop Sister Act Jenny and Ashley Cover Carrie Underwood's 'Good Girl'
Teen sisters and country-pop duo Jenny and Ashley offer their acoustic cover of Carrie Underwood's smash 'Good Girl,' the debut single from 'Blown Away.' The sisters changed the arrangement a little, adding harmonies and stripping down the instrumentation, but for the most part, they remain loyal and faithful to the spirit and the melody of the original. So much so that Miss Underwood herself even digs it and mentioned it on Facebook.

May 8, 2010
By Eric Trainer, Associate Director of Media Relations
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The primary objective for J.J Clark's Big Orange track & field teams at Saturday's Tennessee Invitational was to get quality work in during a competitive situation and prepare for next weekend's SEC Championships. The Vols and Lady Vols did that and more, combining for 17 event wins and snaring a school record on a productive day at UT's Tom Black Track at LaPorte Stadium.
Leading the way, Evander Wells took down the men's school mark in the rarely run 300-meter dash, and Phoebe Wright looked extremely sharp in winning the women's 400m as she aims for her fourth consecutive (indoor/outdoor) SEC 800m crown next week. In all, the UT men won 10 events, while the Lady Vols captured seven titles against a field that included Vanderbilt and East Tennessee State as well as several other in-state schools and at-large entries.
In the final event of the meet, Wells, who led the world for a time this season in the 200, sped 300 meters in 32.72 seconds to snap the 2007 UT mark of 33.30, set by Jacob Dennis. Fellow senior Kyle Stevenson wasn't far off the old mark, covering the distance in 33.38 to place second.
"It is really good to see (Evander run a school-record time )," Clark said. "His speed and strength combination is very, very good right now. That's just going to lead to fast times in the 200 and 100."
Wright, whose specialty is the 800, ran away with the 400 meters on Saturday, cranking out a career-best time of 53.79. The 2010 NCAA Indoor champion in the 800, she was entered at that distance as well earlier in the day and was leading at the 600m mark when she and three-time Olympian Hazel Clark-Riley dropped out as part of their coach's training plan for them. Former Lady Vol Sarah Bowman went on to win in 2:02.25, illustrating the impressive time that Wright was on pace to chart. Wright's teammate, Kimarra McDonald, wound up as the top collegiate performer in that event, running a career-best 2:08.35 to place third.
"She's been running well all year, so I wasn't really surprised, but it is good to see the execution," Clark said of Wright. "We just have to put it all together when it's time next week."
Tennessee swept all three baton events it ran. The Vols won the 4x100m relay in 40.57, with Alan Bachman, Wells, Stevenson and Desmond Brown carrying the baton, while the Lady Vol quartet of Kia Jackson, Ellen Wortham, Martinique Octave and Ashley Harris won in 46.90. The UT women also claimed the 4x4, with Jená Murphy, McDonald, Ramzee Fondren and Kirstyn Sweeney running 3:52.71.
"We were just doing some fine-tuning with the relays," Clark said. "There wasn't any competition, so it was about execution and moving the sticks. It was about working on timing and getting more familiar with the incoming runner and keeping the chemistry going.
"We made a switch on the men's 4x1, putting Bachman on leadoff, and it looks like it's going to pay off just fine. I am pleased with the way both sides are getting it done. We just have to hold the fort down next week and do the best we can."
Like Wright, Samdi Fraser delivered a 400m title for the Big Orange. The senior took the men's crown in 47.55. Emerson Peacock claimed the men's 800 meters for the home team as well, covering the distance in 1:48.96. That mark was just off his career best and ranks him sixth in the SEC this season.
Sophomore Desmond Brown uncorked a career best to win the men's long jump, stretching the tape to 24 feet, 5 1/2 inches. Lady Vol Kia Jackson also had a career best, taking second in the women's competition with a leap of 19-3 1/2.
Brad Holtz and Robert Rasnick went one-two in the men's pole vault. They each cleared 16-6 3/4, but Holtz had fewer misses.
The UT men collected other event triumphs in the 1500m (Peter Sigilai, 3:46.41), 400m hurdles (Matt Bergquist, 55.45), javelin (Matt Maloney, 217-3/66.21m) and shot put (Ben Bartholomew, 51-11.25/15.83m).
UT also picked up victories in the women's 100m dash (Kia Jackson, 11.76w), 200m dash (Martinique Octave, 24.02w), hammer (Jessie Harrison, 166-9/50.84m) and women's javelin (Holly Kane, 128-9/39.25m).
"Overall, it was one of our best pre-SEC meets, from the standpoint of having a few more teams here than we usually do," Clark said. "It was a little breezy, but the weather was good on the whole.
"We got a lot of things done. We got some relay work done, we had some people accomplish some goals in the 800, Peter ran a season best in the 1500m, we had some good jumps and we did some fine-tuning across the board. I think we're right where we need to be as we approach the SEC meet in a few days."

Don't know the full details yet. This is right around the corner from my house. Just another reason to carry in and around your house.
We've had a rash of these here in the Steel City too, but they are mostly over drugs.
Not that I figure that I/we are candidates for a home invasion but I still carry at home.
We've had a few around here too. Mostly committed by illegal immigrants and drug addicts (or people who are both)
Yeah, not enough details to draw any conclusions... Some of these things where entire families are killed turns out to be a murder suicide involving someone in the family. More often it is a drug related thing where someone is seeking revenge. Or just simply robbers doing a random invasion.
In any case, even if you are not involved in the drug world and have bad habits of screwing people on drug deals, it's not impossible for it to be a case of mistaken identity. ie, drug dealer hires someone else to do the killing and they get the wrong house.
One thing I do know... No one is immune from a home invasion regardless of the original circumstances that caused the invasion in the first place.
Obviously we CAN do things to make us less likely a target of a home invasion, but total immunity I think would be just kiddin' yourself.
Year and a half ago during the first week of January (starting on New Year's Day), Richmond had six murders in a city with about 100 000 residents.
Bark'n's and Ship A'Hoy's observations seems at least partly correct in they are related to drugs, but there are plenty of other home invasions that are truly random, just people walking into other peoples' houses because a door was open. I know of two guys who got robbed just sitting on one of the guys' front porch one evening in a nearby "nice" neighborhood.

'KateGate': Katerina Zemanova, 19-Year-Old Daughter of Czech President Milos Zeman, Denies Attending Porn Orgy
The teen daughter of the president of the Czech Republic is denying that she attended a porn party after photos and videos of her cheering orgy participants appeared in local media outlets.
Various Czech media outlets report that 19-year-old Kateřina Zemanová, daughter of President Miloš Zeman, was filmed at a Prague sex party hosted by orgy porn purveyors PartyHardcore.com. Although Zemanová remains clothed throughout the video, as do many of the women in PartyHardcore.com's productions, an orgy takes place around her and she is seen smiling and cheering on the action.
Zemanová is denying she ever attended the porn party.
"Never, I did not participate in any such action. This is a hoax," she insisted. When pressed about her seemingly unmistakable image in the video, Zemanová said, "that is not me. The photos are fake."
The video has gone viral in the Czech Republic, with media outlets calling the burgeoning scandal 'KateGate.'
"It is clearly her and not some look-alike," claims Extra.cz, which published photos comparing the matching faces– moles and all– of Zemanová and the woman in the video.

Hillsborough defensive back Terrence Mitchell was so impressed by his recent official visit to Illinois that he told Terriers coach Earl Garcia this week that he would select the Fighting Illini if he had to choose a school today.
Mitchell, one of the top cornerback recruits in the nation, made the visit to Champaign this past weekend. He also is slated to make an official visit to USF and make his final official to Florida State in mid-January. He has also already made official visits to Georgia and Tennessee
Garcia said Mitchell has eliminated Georgia from consideration. Last week, Bulldogs head coach Mark Richt fired all but one of his defensive coaches, including defensive coordinator Willie Martinez and co-coordinator John Janceck.
Mitchell is the fifth best cornerback recruit in the nation, according to Rivals.com.

Whenever I travel to southern states I always crack up at how the possibility of snow is such a huge deal! At the beginning of Jan. there was the possibility of snow in Atlanta and my flight was canceled a full 22 hours before take-off with nothing happening outside!
Although you must have gotten something small because my companies Brentwood office is closed for inclement weather :)

As a near-lifelong Nashville resident I too assume that anytime they mention snow there's not a chance we'll see anything significant. Guess we were both wrong this time (but running in the snow was a lot of fun).

For all those adoptees who are in need for a place and an environment to share, become active with fellow adoptees, regardless background, religion, race or social economic status, and not afraid to meet the colorful shades of adoption, will find a welcome place within the UAI.
vrijdag 8 augustus 2008
For all those adoptees who are in need for a place and an environment to share, become active with fellow adoptees, regardless background, religion, race or social economic status, and not afraid to meet the colorful shades of adoption, will find a welcome place within the UAI.
The UAI participates in issues that touch the social, political and cultural heart regarding adoption. Its policy is characterized by three main pillars:
* Awareness
* Development,
* Change
of the world of adoption in all its facets, especially where the rights and interests of children and adopted are endangered. The UAI strives for a proportionate participation and a full partnership in the (inter) national adoption community and decision making situations.
Official Representatives and Human Rights
The UAI also strives for a proportional official representation by adoptees as an interlocutor for governments, agencies and adoption institutes, till now a stronghold for adoption parents.
They want to defend the rights of adoptees based on international human rights focused on care for children and their parents; especially where organizations operate to locate children - 'to be Freed' for adoption by agencies, and governmental bodies and NGO's etc.
The UAI believes that any decision about an individual child, for whom adoption is considered as an option, it at least the procedure should be tested to the principle of subsidiarity as formulated in the Hague convention.
The interests and rights of Adoptees are not mentioned in any international human rights treaties nor seen as important, while by adoption assumed to be part of the western world and due that fact automatically seen as non relevant towards essential human right issues.
If Adoptees claim certain wrongdoings by organizations (agencies and other relevant adoption institutes) they are often referred by authorities to general human rights articles but experience has shown that for many adoptees this does not offer any solution if social or/and legal problems and disputes occur and they need legal and/or social support and structural (post) adoption care. More than once, the adoptee is thrown back on his/her own ability to survive in a world that essentially is resistant and hostile to hear the painful truth behind the world of adoption.
The UAI strives adoptees to be seen and recognized as a special group within several (inter) national human treaties so rights can be enforced such as right to obtain background information about the family (ies) of origin, right to inspect and issue (adoption) records and a proportional representation and legal assistance where necessary.
A child can only proposed for (intercountry) adoption and are eligible for transnational adoption, when it is shown that inclusion (adoption) of the child within the family of origin or other ways of care in the country of origin is not absolutely not possible and available. We talk in this respect about the principle of subsidiarity.
The UAI believes that subsidiarity should be expanded; local and national precautions and solutions for real orphans (many children have been identified as orphans by NGO's and researchers who are often have at least still one parent or family members) should be sought before adoption as option is considered.
Also the moral and social environment of the own culture like "extended families structures" and inclusion of children in families without formal adoption or foster care, should be considered as a possible option. In many countries and cultures formal foster care or even adoption does not exist, even though such a system is effectually present, often children are still processed for international adoption. This based on a Western legal scrutiny instead of own cultural, social habits and customs of the country of origin of the child in case.
woensdag 16 juli 2008
Web log work in progress
United Adoptees International (UAI) is against the current international practice and development of Intercountry Adoption. The UAI monitored, investigated and tried to intervene in several international developments regarding Intercountry Adoption. The experience and views of the main players and those who have political, legal and economical interest in Intercountry Adoption endangered the UN Child Right Convention.
Especially article 21b.
"Inter-country adoption may be considered as an alternative means of child's care, if the child cannot be placed in a foster or an adoptive family or cannot in any suitable manner be cared for in the child's country of origin"
Meaning, Intercountry Adoption is not a matter nor replacement of lacking Child protection measures in the countries of Origin. The UAI is against the development that, foremeost, receiving western countries, are trying to sell this idea as a proper way of implementing childprotection measures. Not revealing, the the lack of the needed childprotection measures will be continued and the rights of birthparents. due to this development, is extremely in danger.
Also the UAI comes to the conclusion, that intercountry adoption takes place in foremost economic and social deprived countries where vulnerable societies are been exploited by intercountry adoption due to lack of international safeguards which became on the other hand a standard in most receiving countries. Instead of building and constructing long term solutions for countries and their societies, Intercountry Adoption should not be forced upon these vulnerable families. Instead, the international society should first implement long term social economical solutions and real childprotection measures before Intercountry Adoption should be considered as a possible means of child care.
A clear status of children who are temporarily or permanently deprived of his or her family environment should be taken care of and not (re)located nor recruited and categorised by foreign NGO's or adoption agencies for Intercountry Adoption. The UAI considers therefore article 20 of the UN Child Right Convention of great importance.
"A child temporarily or permanently deprived of his or her family environment, or in whose own best interests cannot be allowed to remain in that environment, shall be entitled to special protection and assistance provided by the State.
States Parties shall in accordance with their national laws ensure alternative care for such a child.
Such care could include, inter alia, foster placement, kafalah of Islamic law, adoption or if necessary placement in suitable institutions for the care of children. When considering solutions, due regard shall be paid to the desirability of continuity in a child's upbringing and to the child's ethnic, religious, cultural and linguistic background."
The UAI considers any form of exploitation of vulnerable countries, societies and their families without qualitative and independent care and security by all means, and misleading definitions as: "in the best interest of the child", an international crime and therefore should be punishable.
The time that stealing, enforcing relinquishments and childtrafficking children for intercountry adoption, should be over and internationally condemned. All involved parties in such, should be held responsible and punished by the International Criminal Court for International Human Exploitation of Vulnerable Families.

Exel, created by the 2000 merger of National Freight Corporation and Ocean Transport & Trading, is Britain's biggest freight company. It reported underlying pre-tax profits down 2% to £186m in 2001. It is raising the dividend by 2.9% to 21.3p but chief executive John Allan said investors should expect any growth to be gradual.
The company, the largest outside the FTSE 100 and first reserve to enter the index, picked up £600m of new contracts last year but Allan warned of 'few clear signs of recovery in our underlying markets'.Reuse content

Morning Platinum Market Report 10/17
January platinum has posted sizable gains during overnight trading and has reached the highest price levels since October 12th. Lingering labor problems in several South African mines appears to have offset news that some mine workers had returned to work for a major South African platinum producer. Platinum may have found considerable benefit from positively received US economic data, which suggests for some traders that platinum may be getting beyond the need for signs of additional easing and that the market might now be in a position to benefit from evidence of US growth.

Based on the latest available bankruptcy figures, 2012 was on pace to have the fewest new bankruptcies of any year since the crisis began in 2008, according …Read More Leave a Comment
