Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I worked for a company under Union contract started in 2000 as a part time and became full time in 2004. in 2006 I was injured at work and was on LOA until now. I only have health benefit from the union until 2007. what benefits am I entitle to? under Union contract I should have pension benefit . but Union said I was no longer in their system because my LOA was expired in 2007. My employer said during LOA they don't pay anything. Is this true? what is my legal/benefit right? Doesn't time on approved LOA count for year in service for the purpose of pension benefit? Thank you very much for your time. do I need an attorney? what an attorney can do for me?
It depends on what the plan rules include for leave of absence. You should take a look at the pension plan's summary plan description (SPD) and see what it says about LOA. There may be more specific rules in the plan's formal plan document but the SPD is a good place to start. I am not sure I fully understand the transition that occurred in 2007 but it may be the case that you did not accrue service after that time. It wouldn't hurt to review your situation with a local employee benefits lawyer.
It depends on the terms of the pension plan, so someone will have to read the Summary Plan Description (SPD) or the full plan to know for sure. That said, I cannot imagine any plan awarding service credits for six+ years on a LOA. The most I have ever seen is one year, and that is increasingly rare. Most plans require an employer to contribute toward the employee's pension based on hours worked.

Hyperdream by Helene Cixous
Book DescriptionHyperdream is a major new novel by celebrated French author Helene Cixous. It is a literary tour de force, returning anew to challenge necessity itself, the most implacable of human certainties: you die in the end - and that's the end. For you, for me. But what if? What if death did not inevitably spell the end of life? Hyperdream invests this fragile, tentative suspension of disbelief with the sheer force of its poetic audacity, inventing a sort of magic telephone: a wireless lifeline against all the odds to the dearly departed. It is a book about time, age, love and the greatest loss. A book which turns on death: on the question or the moment of death, depending on it, expecting it, living off it, taking place at once before and after, but at the same time turning against it, contesting it, outwriting it hopefully, desperately, performatively, as an interruptible interruption. Hyperdream is a book of mourning, but also of morning, a tragedy-with-comedy and a universal family romance in which it transpires that the narrator is the veritable offspring of a "treasure of literature" in the form of a bed, purchased by her mother from a certain W. Benjamin in 1934, slept on for 40 years by her brother and dreamt of by her friend "J.D."

Abstracts and Brief Chronicles of the Time, Hardback (February 2016)
Helene Cixous has dreamed for years of "The Book-I-Don't-Write," but each time she approaches it, it withdraws. The-Book-I-Don't-Write is always just out of reach.
Death Shall be Dethroned, Hardback (February 2016)
Death Shall Be Dethroned is the shadow book of Los, a Chapter, Helene Cixous tells us. It came along after Los, but it was always there "hidden" in her notebooks, in the Beethoven notebook, say, the one Jacques Derrida gave her. But when it tapped at the window, she ignored it until the day she had to let it in.

Building Renovations Inner West
"Fergus Holt from Holt Developments has done many jobs for us over the last few years, two being quite major. We had extensive white ant damage to the rear of our weatherboard house. The boards were an old size but Fergus was able to source them and do a great job with all the repairs. He also did an extension to make our garage into a grannie flat, adding a kitchen and bathroom. Both jobs were done in a very professional way. We can strongly recommend him to do excellent work."
Building Renovations Inner West
"Holt Developments has completed three projects for us.
Fergus Holt, the principal, is a well-trained, skilled tradesman who takes real pride in doing a good job. He is amiable to deal with, makes sound recommendations regarding all work and holds himself to the highest professional standards.
We've been more than happy with his high standard of work and would gladly recommend Holt Developments to anyone seeking quality plastering and other work, particularly in Victorian or heritage buildings."
Andrew Boaden
"my has house with major safety defects. When challenged (09/15) by building inspector Andy Boaden (climate build) they threatened bankruptcy. 35 building defects, complaints with building commission. Shame on you Andy Boaden Climate Build!"
Andrew Boaden
"Whatever you do, do not under any circumstances employ this man/company for work you will regret it. You will be left thousands of dollars out of pocket with an unfinished project, and then he will run and hide. My poor friends Mr and Mrs Street are extremely disappointed in their- what was once to be dream home. Now having the expensive and time consuming experience of going to the Building Commissioner and court. I do have documented evidence."
"A terrific job done by Delaware Homes experts. My previous builder had left me disappointed in terms of services and results. I was wary of making the same mistake again but all my fears and apprehensions were dispelled by the team of professionals at Delaware Homes. I was kept updated on the work progress throughout. Their price quote was fair and reasonable, given the quality of services provided. My loft certainly looks reinvigorated and aesthetically appealing now."
Top Gear Building Solutions
"This business is in the business of taking large deposits and not completing the work. (I know of 2 others who have lost $29,000 and $17,000 respectively). He is not a registered builder, the business is in the process of being struck off by ASIC and he is under investigation by the VBA."

... over two weeks, I'm starting to get a feeling for traveling again.
I started my journey in Bangkok. The first thing that people who are new to this part of the world notice is the heat and humidity that hits you in the face as soon as those doors to the outside world open up. It takes a few days to get used to. Luckily they have air conditioning in lots of places and also in lots of hostels. From a lot of people I heard that Bangkok is huge and that it can be ...

They want to take you to a 'Gay Bar'! Formerly known as The Wildbunch, Electric 6's change of name certainly seems to have paid dividends after they sold out their first major UK tour on the back of one single (Danger High Voltage). With musical influences ranging from new romantic to nu-metal with some disco thrown in for good measure, Electric 6 are one of the best live acts you'll see this year.

This is a diverting piece of popular science on the way children's brains develop, from embryo to university student.
It is full of curious factoids, such as that the eyesight of children who play outside is measurably better, and that the naughty-step strategy of disciplining kids was derived from observation of lab rats. The author's heartening contention is that you don't have to be a super-parent for your child's intelligence to develop – just a good-enough parent. The vast majority of children are like dandelions, in that they can thrive in almost any conditions. Perhaps this sounds like a silly complaint about a science book, but I did find the hard neurological bits, about what region of the brain does what, rather skippable.Reuse content

Then make your way back to Central and see the buildings that comprise the city's administration center, including the Central police station and Victorian Prison Compound, Hong Kong's first prison.
Stop by the Fringe Club, a low-rise brick and stucco building, renowned for displaying the work of young emerging artists and serving as a hub for contemporary art. Amble down the granite Duddell Street Steps and pass by Hong Kong's only remaining gas lamps as you pass by many of Central's most popular landmarks, such as the Legislative Council building, the Cenotaph, Statue Square and the Court of Final Appeal Building. Then visit St. John's Cathedral, the oldest Anglican church in Asia.
Walk to Hong Kong Park to stop by the Flagstaff House to admire the British architecture and view the impressive display of antique tea ware inside. Next door, see the new Government's Headquarter's Complex where the ministers, legislators and civil servants overlook the city's famed Victoria Harbour.
Head to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center on the Wan Chai waterfront, famous for being the location where the 1997 Hong Kong handover ceremony took place. See the Forever Blooming Bauhinia Sculpture, a gift from the People's Republic of China to celebrate the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
Your tour finishes here, and you are free to explore the waterfront area or return back to the center of the city.

Danny met us at the entrance to a centrally located subway station and we were off on a wonderful walking tour of Hong Kong. Great intro to the city and with just 9 of us on the tour--very easy to follow and ask questions. We toured for over 3 hours and saw much of central Hong Kong. We learned a lot of history and developed a better understanding of the people who make Hong Kong what it is. Beautiful City! We were given tips on ways to continue to explore on our own. Excellent experience.

Diese 5500 sq ft Haus liegt auf einem Bergrücken oberhalb Nieder Pacheco gebaut
Canyon, der Santa Fe Opera und die Tesuque Pueblo Flohmarkt. Das Haus ist auf 35 Hektar in einem 2-Gebäude, private, gated Familie Verbindung - angrenzend an die Santa Fe National Forest mit seinen vielen Meilen von Wanderwegen. Das Haus verfügt über echte 360-Grad-Ansichten und jedes Zimmer hat einen spektakulären Bergpanoramen. Das Haus ist 15 Minuten Autofahrt von der Plaza im Herzen von Santa Fe und 5 Minuten vom Dorf Tesuque Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants.
We wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed your home in Santa Fe. The accommodations were perfect for our family, each area gave all family members space and privacy. The 35 acres gave us plenty of walking options and with the snow several snowball fights. The 360 degree views are amazing and your furnishings beautiful. I especially enjoyed the art work. Amanda and Fred were so kind to come and bring us another coffee pot, fire starters, and put dirt on the road after the snow. Thank you so much and we highly recommend your property!
Jamie and Hershel
Walter was wonderful. We stayed at his property on 35 acres. Perfect away from everything spot to work on our newest book as well as close enough to go into Santa Fe for an elegant dinner. Truly, the NM Southwest - with views of the mountains and desert from every window. Each night we looked forward to having a fire in the kiva type fireplace. As Italians, we use fresh produce at every meal...the kitchen had all the kitchenware we required to prepare our breakfast and lunch. The house and views are every bit as beautiful as the pictures ....and exactly what is required for writing and creative thought. Thank you Walter.. We will return. Giuseppe and Diana
I stayed at this house and it was a wonderful stay. The bedrooms are great, the house is well maintained and the housekeeper, Amanda, is a sweetheart. She is very helpful and made our stay special. I would go back anytime.
We are a group of 8 women who travel together every year and have been doing so for almost 10 years. This is the first year where we stayed at a home where expectations were not met especially for the price paid. The house was nice on a beautiful property with lovely views and patios outside of Santa Fe; however, we had a lot of issues/problems. We met the manager, Amanda, who let us into the house on a very warm day and none of the windows were opened so it was stuffy and not very welcoming, as if we weren't expected. The house was also not very clean which the manager told us was because someone else had just left? So why the cleaning fee? We requested a DVD player and Amanda told us she would bring it the next morning by 9am. That time came and went so I texted her and she said she had forgotten and would bring it the next day. We had multiple cleaning issues: There were no hand towels in the bathrooms, the liquid hand soaps were either empty or just barely filled. We asked for more and got some partially filled ones two days later. Some of the bath towels/kitchen towels had a musty smell and there was no detergent to wash them. When we asked for detergent and dish washing soap (which there was also very little of), Amanda told us she did not provide "personal" hygiene products. There were multiple burned out or missing light bulbs and light switches that didn't turn anything on. Dirty linens were piled up by the washer/dryer. Refrigerator and oven were dirty. We started to have ants the second day. You get the idea.
We reported a broken toilet on the second day of our long weekend and Amanda came by with toilet paper and a plunger two days later. When she realized there would be more work involved she said she would return but never did.
We are surprised by the number of positive reviews of Amanda as she was less than helpful, and actually defensive and rude to our group.
This could be a great property with better upkeep, cleaning and a little TLC.
I had never been to Santa Fe before and brought a group of 6 for a small yoga retreat. The location was perfect, 19 min to town and all the attractions. The house was beautiful and had plenty of space for all of us. High ceilings and lots of windows added to the feeling of being a part of our environment. The deck made a perfect location for our twice daily yoga classes and the other deck made a perfect location for cool breezes and playing mahjong. We loved it and were sad to leave. I cannot wait to come back to Santa Fe and expore again. Thank you
My entire family and I decided to rent this home during May and we ended up having an amazing time! The home is pristine and the property is gorgeous. The views are so beautiful and the location is extremely convenient (something that was important to us as my brother and I are a bit OCD.) The property owner was so nice and Amanda tended to our every need. The drive into Sante Fe is quick and every route is a scenic route! We can't wait to go back next year! Thanks for the amazing vacation!

User Trends Go Under Microscope
Tracking services shed light on Web site performance and customer behavior.Classmates.com has become a successful Web enterprise, thanks to 2 million paying subscribers. They use its database services to re-establish contact with high school or college classmates or current and former members of the military service. But many of those classmates would remain disconnected had not the sites operators discovered the link between Web site performance and customer behavior, according to Depik Rai, director of member acquisition at Classmates Online Inc., in Seattle.
There is a growing realization by IT managers and business marketers that a Web sites performance and what its users dowhether browse or buyare closely related. But they have thus far remained separate fields of inquiry: Performance is the domain of IT and customer analytics that of marketing.

Cambridge Companion to Medieval Women's Writing by Carolyn Dinshaw
Book DescriptionThe Cambridge Companion to Medieval Women's Writing seeks to recover the lives and particular experiences of medieval women by concentrating on various kinds of texts: the texts they wrote themselves as well as texts that attempted to shape, limit, or expand their lives. The first section investigates the roles traditionally assigned to medieval women (as virgins, widows, and wives); it also considers female childhood and relations between women. The second section explores social spaces, including textuality itself: for every surviving medieval manuscript bespeaks collaborative effort. It considers women as authors, as anchoresses 'dead to the world', and as preachers and teachers in the world staking claims to authority without entering a pulpit. The final section considers the lives and writings of remarkable women, including Marie de France, Heloise, Joan of Arc, Julian of Norwich, Margery Kempe, and female lyricists and romancers whose names are lost, but whose texts survive.

We believe strongly in working with partners to achieve our mission. Our partners on the ground ensure that the Ruby Cup you donate reaches a girl in need. They form the core of making the Ruby Cup Buy One, Give One programme work successfully.
Our collaborations are based on a sustainable training programme, where Ruby Cups are distributed in a safe environment. That is how we ensure that the girls, who are provided with a Ruby Cup, know how to use it safely, how to clean it and how to care for their body.
The 3 pillars of sustainable social change
- Adequate resources. We make sure that our partners can provide the adequate facilities in terms of water and safe spaces (restrooms, latrines, etc.), trained staff and an education programme with ongoing support to the girls.
- Safety, privacy and dignity for all girls. We emphasize that our partners share an aligned vision and aligned goals: Empowering young girls empowers the community.
- Female Health and Reproductive Education. We need to know that every Ruby Cup distribution is accompanied by a thorough education programme on female anatomy, reproductive health and menstrual hygiene. That is the only way to reach sustainable social change and impacting the lives of girls for the better.
Find out how a Ruby Cup Distribution works
Our amazing donation partners:
Golden Girls Foundation
When we first met Golda Ayodo Obera in 2012, we were swept away by her passion and commitment to empower girls and women in their community. Golda founded Golden Girls Foundation (GGF) together with her husband Ben with the vision of empowering women and creating socio-economically sustainable communities. Their motto is "empower the girl for a better society" with a number of projects that include water programmes, women's empowerment centres, literacy clubs and of course, menstrual hygiene.
GGF has been our strategic donation partner in Western Kenya since 2013. They are distributing thousands of Ruby Cups through their holistic training programme creating a wide geographical impact towards keeping girls in school.
Femme International
We met Sabrina Rubli and Ella Marinic, founders of Femme International in April 2013. They wanted to purchase a small amount of Ruby Cups for a pilot distribution in Mathare, Nairobi and are now one of our main donation partners. We partnered with Femme International in September 2014 and they have since then distributed Femme Kits that include Ruby Cup in both Kenya and Tanzania.
We share Femme International's enthusiasm for sustainable periods and their holistic approach. They put high importance on the topic of menstrual health and hygiene as a tool to empower girls and support them to stay in school and achieve an education.
Womena wrote one of the first reports on the acceptability of menstrual cups, in collaboration with the Red Cross Society in Uganda in December 2012. Ruby Cup donated the cups for the study and we have since then worked with founder Marianne Tellier and the Womena team on a number of distribution programmes in Uganda.
Womena aims to ensure that research on reproductive health is systematically applied and that evidence-based, effective, reproductive health technologies and innovative solutions are explored and supported. They are experts on designing menstrual cup intervention programmes and we share their goal to offer girls and women information and choice when it comes to reproductive health and menstrual hygiene.

Beverly Hills Shuns Bike Paths in Resisting Transit PlanJames Nash
Blocks from the boutiques of Rodeo Drive, Mark Elliot navigated his bicycle over the cracked asphalt of Santa Monica Boulevard, dodging nails, discarded tools and a few sewer grates. Ferraris and Maseratis whizzed by, nearly pinning the 49-year-old against a fence.
Beverly Hills, the California enclave that epitomizes the 90210 lifestyle of palm trees, al fresco dining and mansions hidden behind shrubs, can be hostile terrain for two-wheeled commuters. The city of 35,000 has resisted adding bike lanes to a park-lined stretch of its main east-west thoroughfare. It's also suing to reroute a planned subway line. And its stretch of Wilshire Boulevard may end up being the longest on the most-traveled street in Los Angeles without rush-hour bus-only lanes.
"We're a suburban mentality locked into an urban area," said Elliot, a website designer who's been living in and pedaling through Beverly Hills for 10 years. "Mass transit is an afterthought, and certainly bicycling is an afterthought. We think of pedestrians chiefly as a liability."
What Elliot calls "parochial exceptionalism" has consequences outside Beverly Hills' six square miles (15 square kilometers). Surrounded by L.A. on three sides, the city is one of 88 municipalities in Los Angeles County, which is home to 10 million people, 7.6 million vehicles and the nation's worst traffic congestion. Its location gives Beverly Hills outsized power as the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority and L.A. city leaders pursue a $40 billion program for subways, rapid buses, dedicated busways, light rail lines and bicycle lanes to move more people around without cars.
'No Disagreement'
In 2008, county voters raised their sales tax by 0.5 cent for 30 years to pay for the transportation plan; the measure garnered more than 75 percent support in Beverly Hills. Civic leaders say they're just looking out for their city, not trying to sabotage the regional vision their citizens support.
"There is no disagreement about the traffic problems that we all face together," said Jacob Manaster, a former school-board president who is on Beverly Hills' Traffic and Parking Commission. "There is a disagreement about the solutions that are available. The quality and heritage of this community will have to be preserved."
Beverly Hills has earned a reputation for extravagance, with the median home selling for $3.1 million in April, compared with $460,000 countywide, according to DataQuick, a San Diego-based property-research company. Still, U.S. Census Bureau data show about 56 percent of residents rent and the median household income is $86,000.
'Unique Community'
"We're a unique community and we want to stay that way," said Robert Tanenbaum, a former mayor who serves as president of the Beverly Hills North Homeowners Association. "People spend a heck of a lot of money to buy a home here and they don't want their privacy and safety intruded upon."
The city rallied in the 1960s to block the proposed Beverly Hills Freeway, which was to have been part of a web of highways spanning the heart of the metro area. History vindicated those insurrectionists, Tanenbaum said, and he predicted opponents will be hailed for fighting a subway going under Beverly Hills High School and a plan to replace greenways with bikeways.
"Go ahead with your plans," he said of regional transit planners. "Just don't invade our city."
In 2012, "No Subway Under BHHS" signs sprouted up after Metro's board approved the subway route under the school, part of a regional extension from downtown L.A. that would include two stops in Beverly Hills, including one near Rodeo Drive.
Preferred Route
The city and Beverly Hills Unified School District sued Metro to thwart the subway plan and appealed after a Superior Court judge ruled in Metro's favor. Tunneling under the 87-year-old campus, whose graduates include director Rob Reiner and actress Angelina Jolie, could complicate efforts to put a parking garage under the school or take other measures to expand it, Manaster said.
"We only have one high school," he said. "It's a storied high school. The idea that a major accident could happen during construction has made and continues to make people nervous."
Therese Kosterman, a spokeswoman for Beverly Hills, said the city backs an alternate subway route along Santa Monica Boulevard. Metro officials contend that would make the subway more vulnerable to earthquakes and would make it impossible to build a stop in Century City, a cluster of office and apartment buildings just west of Beverly Hills.
Legal Millions
Since 2011, the school district has spent almost $4.1 million in legal fees to fight the project from a $334 million construction bond measure approved in 2008, according to annual audits and documents released by the district under a Public Records Act request. Superintendent Gary Woods didn't respond to telephone calls and an e-mail message seeking comment on the dispute.
Dave Sotero, a spokesman for Metro, said in an e-mail that that the transportation agency is "confident that the court's ruling will be upheld on appeal."
The city hasn't been faulted for the lack of bus-only lanes on its part of Wilshire Boulevard, which Metro wants to line with dedicated bus paths. Metro hasn't formally requested that Beverly Hills add the lanes, Kosterman said. Paul Gonzales, a spokesman for Metro, said the agency may do so in the future.
As for the Santa Monica Boulevard bike lanes, the five-member City Council, which hasn't taken a final vote, is divided, with three expressing opposition at a March 4 meeting.
The street goes from Hollywood to the Pacific Ocean and two of the four cities along the route, Los Angeles and West Hollywood, have already striped portions for bicycles.
Cactus Gardens
The 1.8 miles in Beverly Hills is lined with flower and cactus gardens, arbors, two fountains and a gravel running path, as well as an illuminated, 40-foot-long Beverly Hills sign in front of which tourists pose for pictures. The proposed bike lanes would displace as much as six feet of greenspace beside the road.
The Beverly Hills North Homeowners Association considers the lanes a raid on greenspace. The group published a full-page letter in the Beverly Hills Weekly, a local newspaper, calling parkland "inviolate" and saying most bike lane users wouldn't be locals.
"This place has a character that is unusual," Manaster said. "Preserving that is not something that people should get upset about. Transit can adjust to that."
City 'Embarrassment'
Beverly Hills' resistance, particularly to the subway, as traffic continues to worsen is an "embarrassment" to the city, said Brigham Yen, a real-estate agent who lives in downtown Los Angeles and is a mass-transportation activist.
"This is about a lot more than Beverly Hills High School," Yen said. "This is about millions and millions of people and how they live."
Elliot, the Beverly Hills cyclist, said he's dismayed when he attends meetings of the city's parking and traffic commission and observes more discussions about routes for celebrity-gawking tour buses than about safety for pedestrians or bike riders.
"I simply got tired of riding around and feeling unprotected by the policy makers and seeing positive changes all around us," he said. "Why not here?"

Severe trauma not only remains a major cause of hospitalization and morbidity, but is also the leading cause of death in individuals under the age of 45. The frequency of post-trauma infections, sepsis, and MSOF remain all too frequent due, in large part, to the heterogeneity of the host immune response to severe trauma, and the inability to accurately identify patients who have immunological abnormalities early after admission and who are therefore at high risk of complicated outcomes. Our overarching hypothesis is that early changes in the human blood leukocyte transcriptome (<12-24 hrs) after severe blunt trauma can be used to identify patients who will have an adverse clinical outcome, and who ultimately may benefit from intervention therapies targeting innate and adaptive immune responses. We propose to develop a clinical bed-side platform, based on genomic expression patterns from total and enriched blood leukocyte populations, on which to develop a rapid genomics-based diagnostic at the bedside in severely injured patients, which can be integrated into clinical treatment programs. There are three specific aims: (1) Using existing RNA samples from over 400 trauma patients and a database of over 2,300 trauma patients from the "Inflammation" Glue Grant, develop statistical models based on the leukocyte transcriptome that can be validated for predicting a complicated clinical outcome after severe trauma;(2) develop a point of care device that can isolate blood leukocytes and PMNs at the bedside and determine mRNA abundance in a matter of hours using a NanoString" technology;and (3) validate prospectively in 75 severe trauma patients the statistical model and point of care device to identify patients at risk of having a complicated clinical trajectory. Successful completion of the program will create a genomics-based diagnostic that can provide in the clinical setting, timely genomic data predictive of clinical outcomes in critically ill trauma patients. Success in this endeavor will go far to reach the goals to integrate biotechnology, genomics and bioinformatics, to change clinical practice, and to invigorate the concept of personalized medicine in the critically ill patient.
Data from this study would help develop a clinical diagnostic test to predict patient outcomes after severe trauma, and to discover signatures that could help doctors select a personalized drug therapy for an individual patient.
