Soar Logbook Loans are now one of the most popular loan types because you don't need to jump through hoops and undergo credit checks. If you've been refused a loan for whatever reason then this could well be your best way to obtain the funding you need.
Whatever amount you borrow can be spent on anything you like... Logbook Loans offer utter flexibility and the freedom to do what you like such as pay off other loans or go on a holiday with the money.
No-obligation quotes: You don't have to commit to a loan, why not just get a free quote to see how much you could borrow against your car.
Keep driving: Not only do you get to borrow the agreed amount, but you can carry on driving the vehicle for the entire loan period!
One minute application: Applying for your no-obligation Soar Logbook Loan quote can be done online and only takes a minute!
Any purpose: No matter what purpose you need a loan for, your borrowed money can be spent however you wish... on debts, holidays, cashflow etc.
With a free Soar Logbook Loan quote available in no time at all, why not apply online today to see how much you could borrow?
Yes! Well with us they do... though that's not always the case with other Soar V5 lenders. Many other Anglesey companies will limit the age of an eligible vehicle to just 8 years whereas our lenders base the loans on the value of your car, so age isn't as important. That means if you drive an older car then you could still borrow against it, and with loan amounts of £400 up to £50,000 there is every chance your vehicle will qualify. Enter your registration to find out today.
If you are the lucky owner of a prestigious or classic car then this type of loan could still apply to you! Soar residents (if eligible) could get a loan against all makes and models including Aston Martin, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Porsche and Ferrari not to mention vintage models. The loan amounts are based upon the value of your vehicle, so most older models are considered.
Unfortunately if you are self-employed you may be familiar with having loan applications rejected as most Anglesey lenders want a guaranteed income. If you apply for Soar car V5 loans however, the lender takes into consideration your vehicle being used as security for the payments so you may be eligible to borrow. In order to comply with responsible lending, you are still required to prove you can cover the monthly payments.
Getting a logbook loan using your Soar company vehicle as security is possible with some lenders. Remember that not all lenders have the same requirements, so it's vital to check with them individually to learn their policies. Those that do will either ask that the car be registered in your name, or if it's registered in the company name, the company name should be the same as yours.
Want to know how much you could borrow against your car in Soar? Use this handy calculator to show up to 80%.
If you have any questions regarding any element of Soar V5 loans then please get in touch via the form above. We've also compiled a list of frequently asked questions which should help answer any queries you may have.
Why opt for Soar Logbook Loans?
Unlike other types of loan, the requirements needed for borrowing against your vehicle are minimal. You simply need to meet a few requirements; that is, you must be of the legal age, and own a car (or have very little finance remaining) which you can offer for collateral. If you meet this criteria and live in Anglesey, you are free to apply for this type of loan. So long as you are the car owner, you may be able to obtain the loan even if you've a history of default. The amount of money you can borrow normally depends on the value of the car you're using for security. Also, if you've finance on the car already, some Soar loan lenders might still lend you some money, so long as the car is worth more than what's owed on it.
Soar individuals who are unemployed and also have a bad credit score usually have fewer choices when it comes to securing a personal loan. This is because of the fact that during the loan application process in most of the conventional loan lenders, one has to be employed with proof of income, and also a credit record check has to be done. With loans secured against a vehicle, unemployed people in Anglesey might still be considered for the loan, however, as part of responsible lending, the logbook lender has to assess the loan applicant so as ensure that they are suitable to lend money to.
In order to be eligible for Soar V5 loans the lender needs to be sure that you can afford the repayments. Responsible lending is important to ensure you don't fall into arrears or risk losing ownership of your vehicle, and if the lender cannot prove this then you won't be offered a loan. In circumstances such as this it's always best to get in touch direct using the form you can see on this page.
Yes. It is a requirement for all Anglesey lenders to register each and every loan via companies such as HPI. In the unlikely event that you discover your new car to have a loan attached to it that didn't show up on a HPI check then you will be eligible for up to £30,000 reimbursement in accordance with the HPI guarantee.

You are here: Home / From Masjid to Mandir: Across the Corentyne, Into Suriname
Vinay Lal (26 June 2009)
Guyana's history, since the arrival of the Europeans, has been inextricably linked to the quest for 'El Dorado'. For a small country, with a population of around 800,000, it has a surfeit of political stories. Guyana may justly be called the 'land of narrratives'. One cannot walk somewhere without running into a story, Heraclitus reportedly said. But it is not only narratives which are aplenty. Its rivers are imposing, even if I will not see the Essequibo, which – I have been told many times – is 22 miles wide at its mouth. To be in Guyana is to be reminded of the elemental force of water and the majesty of rivers. In the hotel room in Georgetown, however, the water pressure in the taps was very low, and I understand that there have been water shortages in the city. The abundance of water, and yet not enough for cooking and drinking – this story has its counterpart in many other parts of the world.
This morning a friend and I took a wooden speedboat across the Corentyne into Suriname. The river, which must be two or three miles wide at this point, was not choppy and it took all of fifteen or twenty minutes to land at the other end. It was a lovely ride. We commenced our trip from close to the mosque in Corriverton, and at the other end arrived at a Sanatan Dharma temple in Suriname, a few kilometers from Nickerie. Hinduism and Islam both came to Guyana (which was part of Dutch Guiana, as I recall from my history, before the British purchased Essequibo, Demerara, and Berbice in the 19th century and renamed their possessions British Guiana) with the indentured laborers, and it is perhaps apposite that this trip should have been prominently marked by signs of both the religions. At the landing, we were mobbed by taxi drivers, nearly all Indians – this could have been a scene from almost anywhere in India. Our taxi driver picked up his wife from the Sanatan Dharma mandir, and offered to share the temple's prashad, a generous helping of big puris and small ladoos.
The taxi driver and I talked in Hindi. The one obvious difference between Guyana and Suriname that strikes one is that Guyana is surprisingly monolingual, just as Suriname is an astoundingly polyglot society. The Indians in Guyana have, almost to the last person, lost their Hindi or rather Bhojpuri, but my taxi driver in Suriname alerted me to the difference by conversing with me in Hindi. Dutch is the official language, and the road signs are in Dutch; but a creole language, described to me as Tranan Songo, is also widely spoken. The Indians speak Hindi, or rather I should say a dialect of Bhojpuri, and the Javanese, who account for something like 15% of Suriname's half a million population, speak Javanese. Everyone speaks two or three languages, even more – a pleasant contrast from the monotonous monolingualism of the Anglo-Saxon world. In addition, as I found, Mandarin, Chinese, Portuguese and Amerindian languages are also spoken by some. I asked Surinamese and Guyanese Indians why Bhojpuri had survived among the former while it had disappeared in Guyana, but no one was able to give me a reply. Similarly, I am tempted to say, a greater portion of the Amerindian population appears to have survived in Suriname, compared to Guyana. Did Dutch and English colonial policies impact differently on the capacity of people to retain their language? Is it the particular misfortune of those who speak English that, given the increasing dominance of English over the last several decades, they become 'linguistically lazy' and lose command over other languages?
That the Indians in Suriname have not lost Hindi at all became all too evident as soon as we came into Nickerie. At Manoj's Music Center, near the India Bazaar, I conversed with the shopkeeper in Hindi, and some men standing nearby chimed in with their opinions when I asked for some recommendations for Caribbean Indian music. I found there a collection of songs by Droopati. Nickerie is doubtless more affluent than any of the towns in Berbice, across the river in Guyana, though there too I found a sizable presence of the Chinese. Not all of the Chinese here go back to the period when Chinese contract laborers were brought to the country; in Nickerie, especially, it appears that there have been recent Chinese immigrants who run restaurants, boutiques, supermarkets, and the like. Suriname might not seem a likely place for understanding what globalization has wrought around the world, but heaven knows that the Chinese, Indonesians, Indians, creoles, Africans, and Europeans have created a society that merits more attention than is commonly bestowed on it.

Hupac opens a new transhipment terminal in…
Hupac opens a new transhipment terminal in Brwinów near Warsaw
@hupac.com
The terminal supports the sustainable exchange of goods in central and eastern Europe and enables the further growth of intermodal transport.
This week, Swiss combined transport operator Hupac opened a new transhipment facility located in the logistics district about 25 km southwest of Warsaw. The terminal, with a handling capacity of 12 pairs of trains per day in phase 2 can shift up to 180,000 containers a year from road to rail. This can avoid 10 kilometres of traffic congestion every day and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 250,000 tonnes per year.
"In the first phase, we will put two transhipment tracks and three service tracks into operation. Loading units will be handled by reach-stackers. In a second phase, we will scale capacity and install another three transhipment tracks as well as powerful gantry cranes," explained Michail Stahlhut, CEO of the Hupac Group
The terminal is based on the parameters of the European freight corridors and is therefore designed for trains with a length of 740 metres in order to achieve maximum productivity for combined transport trains. The Hupac terminal is an essential requirement for the further development of the European intermodal network and will offer sufficient capacity and quality to companies wishing to switch to climate-friendly combined transport.
"Until now, there were no capacity reserves for intermodal transport within 120 kilometers of the Polish capital. The new terminal creates prospects for the growth of the entire sector," said Renzo Capanni, who took over responsibility for Hupac Intermodal's Shuttle Net North East business area at the end of August.
The investment costs for the construction of the terminal amounted to €37 million. The facility covers an area of 140,000 m2 and includes a check-in area, a transhipment area of 42,000 m2, office facilities, and technical buildings. In addition, there is another plot of land of 160,000 m2 for future developments.
Along with smooth transhipment, the terminal also offers other additional facilities such as customs services, loading stations for containers, and weighing of loading units. The terminal will be open to all railway companies in accordance with current EU legislation. Hupac also plans to gradually transfer existing connections to the new facility. "Brwinów in the heart of Poland is the ideal location for international connections to the Polish market. In the mid-term, we see opportunities not only in strengthening traffic on the east-west axis, but also in developing traffic on the north-south axis, where Brwinów can take on a central hub function," emphasized Renzo Capanni.

Home Latest News Boris Johnson confirms that Cop26 went well – and was definitely in...
Boris Johnson confirms that Cop26 went well – and was definitely in Glasgow
Tory benches were sparsely filled as PM addressed the Commons, though Geoffrey Cox was back
Boris Johnson did get one thing right in his Commons statement on Cop26. In the previous day's press conference he had been adamant it had taken place in Edinburgh. Overnight he had been corrected and was now able to accurately locate the climate change summit as being in Glasgow. It was this kind of attention to detail that had made the conference such an outstanding success. Or at least the prime minister's rose-tinted version of it.
Even so, the Conservative benches were noticeably less full than the opposition's. Either most Tory MPs weren't so convinced that Cop26 had been a triumph or they still haven't forgiven Boris for making them look like mugs over the Owen Paterson vote. Or maybe they had got wind of the fact that Johnson had what sounded like the beginnings of a nasty cold – his voice was no more than a muted rasp – and didn't want to take the chance of picking up his germs. Clearly the last two years have taught him nothing about the spread of infectious diseases.
One MP who was in the chamber, though, was the normally absent Geoffrey Cox, taking time off from working in the British Virgin Islands. Not that Geoff had anything to say. He was there to be seen, not heard. Something to write in his diary. Probably better that way. If he'd had to speak, he would have had to charge the Tory party double.
Not that Johnson appeared to notice his lack of support in the chamber, as his opening statement was pure mindless optimism. Bertie Booster on amphetamines. Cop26 hadn't gone quite as badly as many – himself included – had feared, so it must therefore have gone amazingly well. In Boris's narcissistic world everything is binary. It's clearly never occurred to him that going on holiday only weeks before the summit was not a good look and that his time could have been better spent forcing agreements out of other countries.
This was a summit that had proved the doubters and the cynics wrong, he gasped. For the first time the whole world had called time on coal. Except they hadn't. China and India had merely agreed to phase it down. There were no commitments to phasing it out. But Johnson heard what he wanted to hear. There would be less coal used, so that had to be good. Some progress had to be better than none. And some progress equated to Boris being a brilliant negotiator. Someone to whom both the UK and other countries should pay homage.
Understandably, Keir Starmer was rather more nuanced in his approach. Some progress was good, but the amount of progress wasn't nearly enough. The dream of 1.5C was on life support. What had been agreed would merely reduce the temperature rise to 2.4C, which would still do irreparable damage to many countries. Only someone who thought that promises weren't worth keeping could possibly say – as Johnson had done the previous day – that phasing down and phasing out were much the same. It didn't even seem to have occurred to Boris to ask the Cop26 president, Alok Sharma, why he had cried at agreeing to that concession.
The Labour leader continued with the charge sheet. If the UK was serious about climate change, shouldn't it be setting an example to countries who were dragging their heels? How come we had cut our overseas aid just months before the summit? Why were we opening a coalmine in Cumbria and the Cambo oilfield in the North Sea? Why had the GBP100bn a year for developing countries still not been met? Why had the trade deal with Australia ignored climate commitments? And why had the chancellor's budget not mentioned the climate crisis even once?
After the failure of Cop26, there is only one last hope for our survival | George Monbiot
"This is just pathetic," said Bertie Booster. Though he wasn't able to explain why, other than that it didn't conform to his myopic vision of himself as a celebrated world leader. Though this did rather set the tone for the rest of the debate. Opposition MPs would press Johnson on points of fact and detail, reminding him that all he had achieved was a temporary stay of execution, while the home team MPs merely congratulated him on for once having done something at least partially right.
Apart from Edward Leigh, who couldn't see what all the fuss was about. Who cared if a lot of people and other species died in 2050, what mattered was that his constituents weren't inconvenienced right now. It's a view, I suppose. The only consensus on both sides was that Sharma had done a good job as president. Sharma, sitting next to Johnson, nodded shyly. Much as he liked the applause, he would rather get out of the Commons and away from Boris's aerosol spray.
Before giving the statement, Johnson had taken the unusual step of holding a press conference at 3pm to announce that booster jabs would be offered to the over-40s. Something that had already been briefed to the media a long time before. It was almost as though Boris was trying to prove that he wasn't entirely lazy and useless: a role model for sleaze. Not that it was entirely effective as a strategy, because he raced through the presser in under half an hour, giving only the briefest of answers. Most reporters wondered why they had bothered to come.
The highlight was Johnson insisting that he now wore a mask wherever one was required. The sign saying 'No masks must be worn in this corridor' must have escaped the staff at Hexham hospital. And Boris still wonders why the Commons had a Covid rate four times that of the rest of London less than a month ago.

TRENTON, NJ – The indictment of a former pro football player a week ago on charges of sending a failed electronic funds payment to cover his taxes underscores that the State Department of the Treasury is serious about enforcing a new law that can result in prison time for such conduct.
A grand jury in Mercer County indicted former pro football player Plaxico Burress in late April on charges of failing to pay State income tax because of a bounced electronic payment. Burress, a former member of the New York Giants and New York Jets, is the first person to be charged under the new law, which treats a failed electronic funds transfer (EFT) the same as a bounced check.
Prior to last fall, the criminal penalties that could be levied against taxpayers for passing bad checks were more severe than those that could be assessed against people who sent e-payments that failed to clear. In 2014, the Legislature recognized that, as a result of the growing use of electronic banking transactions, the problem of failed EFTs had become a serious issue.
On Sept. 10, 2014, Governor Chris Christie signed into law a bill that rectified the longstanding inequity. The new law ensures that bad checks and failed e-payments are treated the same, with criminal penalties extended to the latter.
A failed electronic payment occurs when a taxpayer filing online designates a financial institution from which to draw payment, and the account either does not exist or there are insufficient funds in that account. Failed payments can occur for other reasons, such as if the taxpayer incorrectly types a checking account or bank routing number.
If that happens, the State will notify the taxpayer. All the taxpayer has to do is to make sure there are sufficient funds in the account when the payment goes through a second time. However, if the taxpayer ignores notices about the failed payment from either the Division of Taxation or Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services, then the matter will be turned over to Taxation's Office of Criminal Investigation (OCI). Taxpayers who fail to respond to those notices do so at their own peril and could face criminal charges resulting in five years of prison time for each charge against them.
Burress filed his 2013 income tax return with the Division of Taxation on Oct. 20, 2014, owing $47,903 in taxes. He submitted an EFT for the taxes due, but the payment failed to clear. After he failed to respond to letters requesting that he submit full payment, the matter was referred to the OCI.
The OCI also sent letters notifying him of the failed EFT and, when he did not respond, notified his tax preparer for 2013 to request that he contact Burress about the seriousness of the situation. Because Burress did not respond, OCI filed a criminal complaint charging him with one count of issuing a bad EFT and one count of willful failure to pay tax.
The grand jury returned an indictment charging Burress with one count of issuing a bad check or EFT and one count of willful failure to pay State tax, both of which are third-degree crimes. Both counts carry a combined maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a fine of $30,000.
OCI Supervising Investigator Donald Krulewicz led the investigation, and Senior Assistant Prosecutor James Scott, chief of the Mercer County Prosecutor's Economic Crime Unit, presented the case to the grand jury.

Ford Tourneo Custom Commercial Van Makes Debut
Viknesh Vijayenthiran March 20, 2012 Comment Now!
We saw it previewed in concept form just a few short weeks ago but here is the Ford Tourneo Custom commercial vehicle that's about to hit European showrooms later in the year.
Aimed at commercial interests as well as sizeable families on a tight budget, the Tourneo Custom is the first step in Ford's commitment to refresh its entire commercial vehicle lineup by 2014.
That commitment will also see the current E-Series vans sold in the U.S. replaced by a new Transit model to be unveiled later this year and built in Kansas City.
As for this European version, it offers the choice of eight or nine seats and short or long wheelbases. On top of this, it also promises car-like dynamics, a driver-focused cockpit and all-new interior design.
The cockpit is further enhanced by a highly adjustable driving position with the steering column adjustable for reach and rake. The rear seats, meanwhile, are a completely new design that can be easily folded into multiple configurations and removed in segments or completely.
Only one engine has been announced so far, a 2.2-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine with three power ratings: 98, 123 and 152 horsepower. All our matched to a six-speed manual with engine stop-start technology as standard.
The Ford Tourneo Custom will make its official world debut at the 2012 Birmingham Commercial Vehicle Show taking place in t he UK this April.

This creates ease of use and saves you from having to manually tune the detector to the constantly changing ground-mineral content. With other manual machines you need to do this from time-to-time as you move about, and with some of them almost constantly. Even then, the detector will not be perfectly balanced all the time, which means loss of depth. However, the XT series ground balances nearly perfectly all the time, as the machine automatically adjusts to changing conditions. The operator can totally concentrate on listening for signals without the distraction of thinking about ground balancing. That is a really big plus.
In the past, the serious electronic prospector needed to use at least two detectors. One was for locating small nuggets within 6 inches (15 cm) of the surface. The second detector specialized in finding bigger nuggets at depth. Previously, no detector could do both jobs well. The Eureka Gold's predecessor, the Minelab XT18000 performed well, doing the job of two detectors at the flick of a switch. It really is two detectors in one. The 6.5 kHz modes excelled at locating nuggets of bean size or larger. The 32 kHz modes excelled at locating from bean size down to smaller than match-head size.
The Eureka Gold has THREE search frequencies: The 6.5 kHz is suitable for the deeper larger nuggets. The 20Khz mode is a general-purpose setting. This is the mode that the majority of operators would use most of the time. The incredibly high 60Khz mode is for the tiny nuggets that had previously been too small for the Eureka Gold to locate. The advantage of this mode is that it will give sharper signals on match-head size or even smaller nuggets. In tiny- nugget areas you should be able to find many more pieces using this mode. However, because of the extra sensitivity of this mode the detector does become noisier, and also does not penetrate as well on larger nuggets. So you would not use the 60Khz mode as an all-purpose setting.
Compared to the Minelab XT18000, the overall appearance of the Eureka Gold is more modern and up-market, but its appeal is more than just skin deep. I have already mentioned the advantage of the third frequency. Because the signal tone of the Eureka Gold is chirpier and more energetic (very different to the XT18000), it is easier to recognize a signal in hot ground. Volume output in the Eureka Gold is not high however, and weak little earphones provided would be totally inadequate. Purchasing powerful earphones is essential for this detector.
The Eureka Gold is more stable in highly mineralised ground than previous Minelab VLF detectors and all experienced users would appreciate this quietness as a very important feature.
The discriminator is of a type similar to the XT18000, but provides marginally better performance. However, it is still only an iron discriminator that works on small iron pieces near the surface. I long for the day when a thoroughbred gold detector will have a full-depth ability to recognise all non-gold metals in highly mineralised ground. But as yet no manufacturer has been able to design one. Coin detector discriminators go close but do not work well on the goldfield's mineralised soils.
The Eureka Gold has a 10" elliptical coil as standard equipment, which is preferable to the previous round 8" coil. It is lighter, can cover more ground per sweep, and can be poked into difficult-to-access places. The extra 5cm gained per sweep may not seem like much but it soon adds up, especially in the open country.
It was good to see that the Eureka Gold has an improved rechargeable battery pack, which clips into place neatly and easily. Minelab include a magazine clip that will accept eight AA alkaline batteries for emergency back-up use.
In summary, As far as this Eureka Gold review is concerned this machine is the best all-round VLF detector available for use in the gold fields from the US to Australia and everyplace in between. It is versatile and refined and very easy to use!

Fascinated About Game Websites. 10 Explanation Why It's Time To Cease!
Skyforge stands out as probably the greatest MMOs thanks to the mix of its unique class system, glorious early recreation, and stunning world. Mixed with the continual seasons system, Diablo 3 ought to be a mainstay of your co-op shelf, and it's still going sturdy as it's now in season 23. Now, when we are able to we count on a Diablo four launch date, eh? And maybe best of all, there's now an option to instance loot so if you're enjoying co-op with random gamers online you then won't must race to hoover up all of that loot. A number of free expansions – which embody new races and classes – have been launched within the time since Neverwinter launched, taking gamers removed from the safety of Neverwinter itself, to lands like Icewind Dale, the place barbarians and unpleasant temperatures are the least of your worries. On this puzzle sport, you'll must be quick, because time is brief.
Though there's a clear distinction between some of them – you've acquired your typical tropes of the excessive-pace ones that can't flip properly, and the slightly slower ones that favour manoeuvrability instead – it's truthful to say that lots of the planes have near-equivalent stats, though this does mean that when you discover a plane that fits your fashion you'll at least have a few designs to choose from. Nicely, that's not solely true, but at the very least it gives you someone to blame when you die repeatedly to a nineteen thirties fashion wibbly carnation, as beautifully animated as it is unsettling. Well, these oft-used letters represent the phrases Massively Multiplayer On-line, and discuss with video games the place a whole lot – if not hundreds – of gamers come collectively in the same world. Ultimately you'll start getting extremely long words that'll hearth one-letter missiles at you that you have to take out with a view to proceed. Welcome additions to the Borderlands three endgame, just like the Proving Grounds recreation mode, Mayhem Mode, and Guardian ranks, provide you and your mates with a lot to do after the credits have rolled. Permainan Qiu Qiu might be great in your ears or eyes but if you play these video games they are not pleasant and it is tough to complete the game.
An motion platformer and last of the Valis collection to launch within the West, Tremendous Valis IV is a closely altered port of Telenet Japan's Computer Engine sport which went without the 'Super' in its title. Then, when you're achieved, it can save you the game to your favorites to play once more later, or pick a brand new action title and begin a new journey (or almost definitely do both)! Two Level Studio's humorous hospital administration sim is the newest to be included in Nintendo's Sport Trials collection. For example, the starting point could be Blackbeard the Pirate and the endpoint could possibly be grilled cheese sandwiches. Shortly after its launch we were struck down with a compulsive addiction to keep enjoying this zed-flavoured FPS with mates. After a hefty hiatus you may have expected more change in Gearbox Software's looter shooter FPS. If the Pc launch of Future 2 has been your first introduction to Bungie's colossal console sport, then you may have initially been a bit confused. Tasking four gamers with making meals could sound easy, but as anybody who's ever labored in catering will tell you, a kitchen is the devil's own workhouse.

Rockstar lately made an try to give these heist moments to gamers however it pales in comparison to GTAO's heists. But, while England's massive smoke is alleged to be the only non-US setting Rockstar would consider, Houser appeared to debunk this rumour within the Guardian's interview with him.

If you've been searching for a game to play with friends, this can be a worthy candidate. Nevertheless, if you've got played by way of all the plain NES platformers and are looking for one thing a bit completely different, this hybrid platformer offers a good challenge that is fun to manage. When it was initially launched it was not very good.

European Commission publishes progress report on equitable wages
The European Commission has recently published its report on progress made in
the implementation of equitable wage policies since 1993. The aim of
providing all employees with an equitable wage was enshrined in the Charter
of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers, which was adopted by 11 member
states (with the exception of the UK) in 1989. In accordance with the 1989
social Action Programme, the Commission published an Opinion in 1993, which
stated that the pursuit of an equitable wage must be seen as part of the
general drive to achieve higher productivity and employment creation, and to
foster good relations between the two sides of industry. The member states
were encouraged to give substance to their commitment made in adopting the
Social Charter, by working towards the establishment of an equitable wages
policy. This was to be achieved through greater labour market transparency
with regard to wages. The social partners were also called upon to contribute
to the achievement of this aim.
Moves towards greater working time flexibility
The central social partners - the Austrian Trade Union Confederation
(Österreichischer Gewerkschaftsbund,ÖGB) and the Austrian Chamber of
Commerce (Wirtschaftskammer Österreich, WKÖ), the statutory body grouping
almost all nonagricultural enterprises - have for some time been discussing a
range of changes to the 1969 Working Time Law (Arbeitszeitgesetz, AZG). The
aim is to maintain competitiveness and employment by making possible a more
uneven distribution of working hours over time, without financial penalty to
the employer. This is expected to lead to higher productivity, better use of
plant, lower inventories, and a capability to respond more swiftly to
variations in demand. The trade unions also hope to achieve a reduction of
hours worked by individual employees in favour of more employment.
Working time, Labour law, Labour and social regulation
National conference on youth employment
In a context of increasingly difficult youth employment in France, and of
social tension about what course of action to take, a recent national
conference has defined a number of concrete objectives. These seek to secure
employment for the most disadvantaged, and to expose students to the world of
work for the first time. These aims are based on a series of commitments on
the part of industry, Government and the social partners - who remain at odds
in their analysis - the effects of which must be monitored.
Labour market participation, Skills and training, Working conditions, Working conditions and sustainable work
Union recognition still an issue
Declining union membership and a legal and ideological attack on the role of
trade unions over the past 17 years may have left many with the opinion that
employees no longer value the right to act collectively. It has been argued
that the attack on the unions throughout the 1980s and 1990s has left the
unions weak and unable to protect members' rights. Alternatively, it has been
argued that people now prefer to negotiate their own employment contracts
individually and do not need trade unions.
Industrial action in public administration
Industrial action has accompanied trade unions' pay demands in Spain's public
administration since late 1996, and the threat of further action has been
made if negotiations are not started immediately.
Social partner negotiations on part-time work near deadlock?
In a recent press interview, Padraig Flynn, the European commissioner
responsible for industrial relations and social affairs, expressed his unease
at press reports that the social partners' negotiations on part-time work
were heading for collapse, and stated that he remained hopeful of a positive
outcome. Senior trade union negotiator and deputy general secretary of the
European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC), Jean Lapeyre, also stated that he
remained convinced that the negotiations could succeed. He stressed, however,
that if part-time work was to be made more attractive and acceptable for
workers, assurance of "decent social protection" had to be offered.
Average minimum wage rates rise by 2.4% in 1996
Testing 1,2,3 Minimum wages in Austria are known as "collective agreement
wages" because they are set by collective bargaining rather than by law,
though it is unlawful to pay less than the collective agreement wage. Because
of the large number of collective agreements concluded independently of each
other, substantial variations in increases in the minimum wage can arise
between industries or groups of employees. It is only possible to estimate
the overall change of the minimum wage rate retrospectively. The annual
estimate and the detailed monthly reporting are both carried out by the
Central Statistical Office (Österreichisches Statistisches Zentralamt,
ÖSTAT) based on reports received from the trade unions.
Railways' operating functions and network responsibilities to be split

CBI sets out its plans for 1997
At the beginning of February the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) set
out its long term priorities for beyond the forthcoming general election. Its
director general, Adair Turner said that "whatever happens between now and
May, there are fundamental issues for business which need attention. The
changing nature of the world in which we do business brings both
opportunities and challenges, and the CBI should be at the heart of change."
Road transport strike: consequences for industry and trade
February 1997 saw a major strike in Spain's road transport sector. The
dispute was well supported, mainly in the north of the country, but was
called off without winning many concessions from the Government.
EWCS extraordinary edition 2021: Overview report
This report analyses how working conditions, job quality and working life outcomes – such as work–life balance, health and well-being, and sustainability of work – changed between February 2020 and spring 2021. Following up on responses to the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) 2020, it explores the differences between three distinct groups of workers: those teleworking during the COVID-19 pandemic, those who continued to work on their employers' premises as frontline staff, and those who were furloughed or worked reduced hours.

Representativeness of the European social partner organisations: Textiles and clothing sector
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the textiles and clothing sector. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in the European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements. The aim of this Eurofound study on representativeness is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations in the textiles and clothing sector in the EU Member States.

Scenarios on digitalisation and transition to a carbon neutral economy
With the expansion of telework and different forms of hybrid work as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important for policymakers to consider both the opportunities and the negative consequences that may result. This report will explore potential scenarios for such work. In doing so, it will identify trends and drivers, and predict how they might interact to create particular outcomes and how they are likely to affect workers and businesses. Policy pointers will outline what could be done to facilitate desirable outcomes and to avoid undesirable ones.

Social services in Europe: Adapting to a new reality
The COVID-19 pandemic triggered an extraordinary level of provision of social services across the EU. Healthcare and care providers carried much of the burden and, together with essential services, played a crucial role in getting citizens through the crisis. This report explores how public services adapted to the new reality and what role was played by the digital transformation of services. The aim is to contribute to the documentation and analysis of changes in funding, delivery and use of healthcare and social services during the pandemic.

Intergenerational dynamics over time
Building on previous work by Eurofound, this report will investigate intergenerational dynamics over time. During the 2008 double-dip recession, worrying intergenerational divides appeared in many Member States, and while some of the economic and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is universal, early data suggests disparities across demographic cohorts. Eurofound will examine how different age groups may have been affected in terms of their health, labour market participation, quality of life and financial needs, both in the short term and in the long term.

Rural-urban polarisation
The urban-rural divide in EU countries has grown in recent years, and the depopulation of certain rural areas in favour of cities is a challenge when it comes to promoting economic development and maintaining social cohesion and convergence. Using data from Eurofound and Eurostat, this report will investigate the trends and drivers of the urban-rural divide, in various dimensions: economic and employment opportunities, access to services, living conditions and quality of life.

Affordable and adequate homes - The cost of and access to housing in Europe
Adequate, affordable housing has become a matter of great concern, with an alarming number of Europeans with low or lower household incomes unable to access any, especially in capital cities. Housing was a key factor in people's experience of the COVID-19 pandemic: its quality and level of safety significantly affected how lockdowns and social distancing measures were experienced, with those who had no access to quality housing at higher risk of deteriorating living conditions and well-being.

Connecticut Keeps it Classy: Eat a Taco for Civil Rights; Marine Goes Free After Murdering Iraqis
It is always a pleasure to see my home state featured in the national media.
There are many tragedies in America's long war. While some are upset about Marines urinating on dead Taliban fighters in Afghanistan (and of course are not asking the more important questions about the efficacy of the policy that put U.S. soldiers in harm's way, or if peeing on dead bodies is worse than incinerating innocent people with bombs), there are many other shameful moments that will eventually come to light from the long wars abroad.
To date, we have seen "dead pools," assassination squads, rapes of children, racially motivated fratricide, and all sorts of descents into madness by U.S. and allied forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. The American people choose to either turn away, remain blissfully ignorant, or wrap themselves in childish nationalism as a defense mechanism. When blowback inevitably comes they can shake their heads and ask "why do they hate us so? Is it our values? The American way of life?" Some pandering politician will avoid all real talk and instead answer a resounding "yes" to all three questions.
Frank Wuterich, a United States Marine from Meriden, Connecticut has been found not guilt of murdering more than a dozen innocent non-combatants during a punitive raid in Iraq. His punishment? Nothing significant, he was slapped on the wrist for "dereliction of duty" and sent on his way. If Vietnam brought the barbarism of the Tiger Force, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are going to spit forth much fodder for books and movies that will make the Abu Ghraib scandal look like a resort town.
The mayor of East Haven, Connecticut also kept it classy this week. Following a series of civil rights abuses by his police, Joseph Maturo publicly announced that he would eat tacos as a way of supporting the Latino community--a group which has been subject to racial profiling and harassment in his city. Post-Civil Rights era race discourse has really reached a new level of sophistication has it not? Reparations through the gesture of taco eating. Priceless.
There is a deeper element here that is worth exploring. How do certain spaces, towns, and communities come to be hostile to "outsiders" who are not the "right" ethnic or racial group.
I grew up in New Haven and Hamden, Connecticut. As such, I am very familiar with East Haven. It had the greatest Toys R Us in the area, and every Sunday I would nag my mother to drive me up I-95 (or on the surface streets) to East Haven where upon arrival at the store I would grab the newest G.I. Joe or Transformer. Years later, I would also spend a good amount of time at East Haven's bowling alley--they had a great pro shop, really easy lane conditions, and lots of "action," i.e. money games between some of the best scratch players in the area.
Those spaces were very integrated. However, there was always this lingering white ethnic anxiety in the air as we black and brown folks knew not to hang around too late in the area as anything (harassment by the police, a fight with some locals who would drive by in their Monte Carlo SS's, Ford Thunderbirds, or Corvettes--watch Jersey Shore and you will get the joke--and yell "nigger" or "spic" at you for a cheap thrill) could jump off. If you were a brother dating a white woman, you most certainly knew not to take her to one of the late night diners in East Haven. "No shoes, no service" would be the least of your worries if some of the local "Itals" didn't like that one of "their" women was with one of "those people."
Like many other rustbelt suburbs and cities of the Northeast, in East Haven there was/is racial anxiety about lost economies, ethnic transition as a proxy for the wages of whiteness gained (for those who could move out to places like Branford, Cheshire, or northern Hamden) or lost (those Italians, Poles, Greeks, and others who couldn't because of financial or familial reasons leave the neighborhood), and nostalgia for the "good old days." These dynamics are difficult for many white ethnics of a certain generation to reconcile as formerly white spaces became black, and then Hispanic and Latino.
My adopted Scots-Irish grandfather would tell me stories about the neighborhood of his youth in New Haven. During the 1920s and 1930s Irish cops would ride on bicycles and hit kids in the head with a stick for sport, to put some fright in them, or to break up groups of "undesirables." Apparently, the latter was more common when the group was "mixed" than if one "kept to your own type."
My father grew up in the same area and would jokingly talk about the local neighborhood cliques that would in turn form the basis for the semi-pro football teams in New Haven county. He could "pass" if he so chose. Thus, my father had many white ethnic friends and could navigate the various Irish, Jewish, and Italian neighborhoods in relative safety if "he walked really fast and kept a hat on." Like my adopted grandfather, he too had stories about how space was bounded by either the police, or the gangs of young toughs who lingered on the borders of each ethnic and racial neighborhood. No one got killed. There would be tussles to keep everyone honest--fights more akin to The Wanderers than Boyz in the Hood. Over time you earned some respect, and eventually could earn a pass to either walk on certain streets, or go into certain stores.
The mayor of East Haven's epic fail is an entry point for thinking about local history and geography. Teach me a thing or two. How did East Haven become so hostile to Hispanics and Latinos, and non-whites more generally? Does anyone have an insight into the local history? What are the towns, cities, and areas where you know that as a black/brown/white person that you had best avoid? Sundown towns are no longer enforced by "law," yet they still exist.
Ultimately, are places like East Haven, and larger cities like Providence and Cranston, just experiencing metaphorical hangovers from white flight, deindustrialization, and realistic group conflict, dynamics that play themselves out through racial profiling and harassment?

Thank you for the reflections from the personal life experience in East Haven. It gave me a racial / ethnic / demographic context to this story... which is one of the purposes of education, right?
A book that helps provide some historical perspective to the story is Matthew Frye Jacobson's Whiteness of a Different Color: European Immigrants and the Alchemy of Race. Obviously, the taco makers are not yet white in the eyes of the "authorities." Certainly the accumulation of property and voting blocs in the coming years will help. (See: Irish experience, a la Tammany Hall and Bridgeport).
As a Connecticut lad, you not only bring personal experience to the topic, I have no doubt have been shown to a machine shop, in Chicago, when you asked "Do you have any grinders?" They have a weird concept of pizza too.
Okay, I'm white ... I don't see the problem. Why should the police have to speak Spanish?
The hispanics are in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ... they need to speak English and integrate.
Let me guess ... if hispanics are only 10% of the population in that town, then only about 10% of the people arrested in that town must be hispanic ... right? Show me the numbers.
It's lunchtime ... I'm hungry. I think I'll go eat some tacos.
Well, you know how I like irony, right? In my town all of the suburbs used to be white. In the period of white flight. Before blacks began to move in. A former white suburb with the curious name "Whitehaven" (I'm sure there was nothing racial implied in it's naming, though I live in the most racist city in America) is now virtually all black. LOLOLOL.
Quote: "The hispanics are in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA..."
"The irony is thick with this one," he said, paraphrasing Obi Wan Kenobi.
Yes, and we conquered their lands, fair and square, in the Mexican War.
Many Hispanics have family lines that predate the American conquest in 1848, especially some families in Southern California and New Mexico.
But if they were fair-skinned and had enough property, we considered them white, and suitable for intermarriage. (Google "Californios.) "If not, they were designated as Not Whites --"greasers" -- and employed as laborers. We even created special exemptions to our very restrictive 1925 immigration act to permit hundreds of thousands of their cousins to come to the US to work for the special wage scales that were reserved for non-whites... at least until the Depression and subsequent downturns. (Go Google "Bracero Program.")
But you're right, Mr. Anonymus, they are in the United States of America, a place where they need to SPEAK ENGLISH, because we have places names like Florida, Colorado, California, Nevada, Texas, San Francisco, San Diego, Santa Fe, Las Vegas. (Gee, what language could all of these have come from? Not English.) But you can hang your hat on our #2 city, Los Angeles, which is short for "La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora Reina de los Angeles" (The Church of Our Lady, Queen of the Angels).
As The Terminator said, "Hasta La Vista, baby."
East Haven is a nothing special not now nor in the past ..Of course it is easy to trash it now cause lots of browns live there

What ever happened to Meeno Peluce?
The curly-haired kid was everywhere in the 1970s and 1980s.
March 1, 2017, 4:17PM By MeTV Staff
If you were alive in the 1970s, then you know there were certain child stars that dominated the pop culture landscape.
We're not talking teen titans like Donny and Marie Osmond. Oh no, we're talking about the kids that came and went like a flash in the pan.
Child stars like Mason Reese and Rodney Allen Rippey were everywhere in the 1970s, appearing on talk shows, award shows and (of course) commercials. There's one in particular we're going to focus on today, and that's Meeno Peluce.
What ever happened to Mason Reese?
You couldn't turn on the television without seeing the curly-haired kid at one point in time. Before the age of 10, Peluce had already racked up guest appearances on popular shows like Starsky and Hutch, Kojak, Eight Is Enough,The Incredible Hulk and Lou Grant.
The 1980s brought further success, with a role in The Amityville Horror and guest-starring roles on The Love Boat, Diff'rent Strokes and Happy Days.
Finally, in 1982, Peluce got his starring vehicle on the show Voyagers! The time-traveling drama also featured Jon-Erik Hexum, who became somewhat of a mentor to the child star.
The series was short lived, and was canceled after its first season. Not long after, the guest-starring roles dried up as Peluce grew older.
Peluce left show business in the late 1980s and attended the University of California – Santa Cruz, where he studied literature. The former star of Voyagers! used his time-traveling skills to his advantage, becoming a history teacher at Hollywood High School in the 1990s.
Today, Peluce still rocks those curls as a photographer. According to his website, he's shot album and single covers for artists like Lady Gaga, Rihanna and the Black Eyes Peas.
Although he's a successful photographer today, and the half-brother of Soleil Moon Frye, we'll always remember Peluce as the lovable kid from Voyagers!

Montreal Jazz Festival Announces First Part of 2021 Lineup
The September 15–19 event will be held entirely on two outdoor stages
Published August 19, 2021 – By JazzTimes
Ranee Lee, Montreal Jazz Festival 2014
The Festival International de Jazz de Montreal (FIJM), celebrating its 41st edition in 2021, has announced the first part of its lineup for the September 15–19 schedule.
Canadian jazz artists Ranee Lee, the Francois Bourassa Quartet, and MISC; rockers Daniel Lanois and Steve Hill & the Devil Horns; R&B vocalists Charlotte Day Wilson and Shay Lia; and singer/songwriters Beyries and Basia Bulat will all perform as part of this year's festival.
Waylaid in 2020 by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, the FIJM is making its return in a limited form. Its usual two-week schedule in July has been truncated into five days, and will take place entirely on the festival's two outdoor stages (sponsored by TD Bank and Rio Tinto), both erected off St. Catherine Street near the Place des Arts in the center of Montreal. The festival plans to return at full steam in 2022.
The entire lineup and schedule for the 2021 festival will be announced August 31.
Visit the FIJM website for more information.
In 2019, the FIJM celebrated its 40th anniversary, and the retirement of its co-founders Alain Simard and André Ménard. That the festival had something of a valedictory air wasn't surprising, but the predominant mood was one of celebration.

Constitutional Law -> Case -> Law School Cases
In Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 U.S. 579, 72 S. Ct. 863, 96 L. Ed. 1153 (1952), the Supreme Court reviewed the constitutionality of an executive order directing the secretary of commerce to seize possession of the nation's steel mills during a labor dispute and keep them operating while hostilities continued in the Korean War. Also known as the Steel Seizure Case, Youngstown Sheet & Tube stands for the proposition that the executive branch has no constitutional authority to seize possession of private property, even if it is for public use during times of national emergency because such authority is vested in the lawmaking powers of Congress.
The case arose from a labor dispute between American steel companies and their employees over the terms of a collective bargaining agreement that was under negotiation in 1951. Employees wanted higher wages, but management protested that such increases could only be met through drastic price hikes. President Harry S. Truman opposed further price hikes because the economy was already suffering from inflation. However, Truman feared that any disruption in domestic steel production would impede the American war effort in Korea, which was entering its second year, and thus imperil the safety of U.S. military troops.
When negotiations between labor and management reached an impasse, the employees' representative, United Steelworkers of America, C.I.O., announced its intention to commence a nationwide strike on April 12, 1952, at 12:01 A.M. A few hours before the strike was to begin, Truman issued Executive Order 10340, which commanded the secretary of commerce, Charles Sawyer, to seize most of the nation's steel mills and keep them running.
In carrying out this order, the secretary directed the presidents of the seized steel companies to serve as operating managers for the U.S. government. Until directed otherwise, each president was to operate his plant in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the secretary. While obeying these orders under protest, the steel companies filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, seeking declaratory relief to invalidate the executive order and injunctive relief to restrain its enforcement.
On April 30, 1952, the district court issued a preliminary injunction immediately restraining the secretary of commerce from continuing the seizure and possession of the steel mills. On that same day, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia stayed the district court's order on the grounds that resolution of such an issue is more appropriate for the U.S. Supreme Court. Granting certiorari three days later, the Supreme Court decided the case on June 12, 1952.
In a 6–3 decision, the Supreme Court invalidated the executive order and affirmed the district court's judgment. Justice Hugo Black delivered the opinion of the Court. Truman's power to issue the order, the Court said, derives, if at all, from an act of Congress or from the U.S. Constitution. There are no other sources for Presidential Power, the Court wrote.
The Court found that Truman had not acted pursuant to congressional authority. Prior to issuing the order, Truman had given Congress formal notice of the impending seizure. However, neither house responded. The Court also observed that Congress had considered amending the Labor-Management Relations Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 136, popularly known as the Taft-Hartley Act, to include a provision authorizing the seizure of steel mills in times of national crisis. Yet Congress rejected the idea. No other federal statutory authority existed, the Court stressed, from which presidential power to seize a private business could be fairly implied.
The Court next turned to the president's constitutional powers. Article II of the Constitution delegates certain enumerated powers to the executive branch. Unlike Article I, which gives Congress a broad grant of authority to make all laws that are "necessary and proper" in exercising its legislative function, Article II limits the authority of the executive branch to narrowly specified powers.
Consistent with Article II, the Court said, a president may recommend the enactment of a particular bill, veto objectionable legislation, and "faithfully execute" laws that have been passed by both houses of Congress. As commander in chief, the president of the United States is vested with ultimate responsibility for the nation's armed forces. However, the Court emphasized, the office of the president has no constitutional authority outside the language contained within the four corners of the Constitution.
Lawyers for the executive branch had argued that the presidency carries with it certain inherent powers that may be reasonably inferred from the express provisions of the Constitution. During times of national emergency, the government's lawyers argued, the president may exercise these inherent powers without violating the Constitution. Since wartime is traditionally considered a time of national emergency, the president's seizure of the steel mills represented a legitimate exercise of his inherent powers.
The Supreme Court disagreed with these arguments. Conceding that a strike could threaten national security by curtailing the production of armaments, the Court said that the commander in chief's authority to prosecute a foreign war does not empower him to seize private property in an effort to resolve a domestic labor dispute. "This is a job for the Nation's lawmakers," Justice Black wrote, "not for its military authorities." Black reminded the executive branch that only Congress can authorize the taking of private property for public use under the Eminent Domain Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Justices Felix Frankfurter, William O. Douglas, Harold Burton, Tom Clark, and Robert Jackson each wrote a concurring opinion. Frankfurter suggested that the powers expressly enumerated in Article II may be supplemented by long-standing executive practice, though he said there was no historical precedent for Truman's action in this case. With the exception of Jackson, the other concurring justices elaborated on points made by Justice Black in the Court's opinion.
Jackson's concurring opinion has garnered much attention from constitutional scholars and is the most frequently cited opinion in Youngstown Sheet & Tube. Jackson articulated an overarching theory of federal executive power in the United States. According to Jackson, there are three tiers of presidential authority. When a president acts in conjunction with Congress, Jackson wrote, executive power is at its zenith because the president may rely on his own authority plus that of the legislative branch. When a president acts contrary to congressional will, executive power is at its nadir because the president must rely solely on his expressly delegated authority minus that of the legislative branch. And when a president acts in an area where Congress has been silent, executive power is uncertain and may fluctuate depending on the circumstances.
Justice Fred Vinson dissented, joined by Justices Stanley Reed and Sherman Minton. The dissent underscored the importance of steel production to the military effort in Korea. During the two years of hostilities in Southeast Asia, the dissent noted, Congress directed the president to secure the nation's defenses, sometimes doing so in a very general and open-ended manner. Thus, the dissent argued, Truman had received some authority from Congress to take action in the name of national defense and the public interest.
The dissent also relied on history, pointing out that James Madison advocated instilling the executive branch with initiative and vigor. President Abraham Lincoln, the dissent continued, showed initiative during the Civil War by ordering the seizure of all rail and telegraph lines leading to Washington, D.C., even though he lacked congressional approval. In this light, the dissent concluded, Truman's seizure of the steel mills was supported by historical precedent.
Youngstown Sheet & Tube is considered a seminal case regarding the separation of powers among the coordinate branches of the federal government. The U.S. Constitution separates the powers of the federal government among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The constitutional authority of each branch is limited by the express language of the Constitution and by the powers delegated to the coordinate branches.
Article I gives Congress the power to make the law. Article II gives the president the power to execute or implement the law, while Article III gives the federal judiciary the power to interpret and apply the law. The popular notion of "checks and balances" rests upon this conception of the separation of powers.
Despite the clear separation of constitutional powers, presidents, members of Congress, judges, and laypeople have debated whether the executive branch is vested with additional inherent or implied powers. On one side of the debate are those who believe the presidency enjoys a residue of autocratic power. According to these individuals, such power may be exercised by the president in times of national emergency and is limited only by the president's good judgment. On the other side of the debate are those who believe the executive branch may not exercise any power that is not explicitly granted by the federal Constitution or federal statute.
Youngstown Sheet & Tube went a long way toward settling this debate. Occasionally presidents still assert claims of executive privilege and executive immunity. In some instances federal courts recognize such claims, but oftentimes they do not. President Richard M. Nixon unsuccessfully attempted to insulate tape recordings made at the White House during the Watergate political scandal from a federal investigation, a notable example of a failed assertion of executive immunity (United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683, 94 S. Ct. 3090, 41 L. Ed. 2d 1039 [1974]). In many such cases, Youngstown Sheet & Tube has provided the backdrop for judicial analysis of executive authority under Constitutional Law.

Because It Is A Most Unusual Day, It's Lawrence Welk Again Y'all.
A Most Unusual Day" was written for the 1948 movie "A Date With Judy" which I'm watching as I type. It's not great cinema to be sure but at the time this was made, movies directed at teenage audiences were unheard of. I guess you could say "A Date With Judy" was the original "High School Musical." There are lots of excellent versions of "A Most Unusual Day" floating around the net but I think the Lawrence Welk version best reflects the spirit of the original. The blurb on the video says this clip is from 1971.
Today is a most unusual day in geek/nerd history. It's 10/10/10 which is 42 in binary. If you love the book "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" as much as I do you'll know that 42 is the ultimate answer to the question of Life, The Universe, and Everything! If you're a geek/nerd and also me it's even more unusual because 10:10 on 10/10/10 is binary for 682 which is my birthday! (If you're slightly dyslexic) So, for two full minutes today, the universe will finally arrange to prove me right and show that it really does revolve around me! (But again, only if you're slightly dyslexic.)

Lawrence Learns to Listen to Lyrics!
I am a hard core lyrics person. I love the poetry of well written lyrics. I love the hokey charm of silly, humorous lyrics. I even love lyrics that are just plain dumb but fun! When I hear a song with words I get so wrapped up in analyzing the meaning that it's hard for me to even focus on the other messages that might be conveyed by the melody or the performance. Lately I've been trying to make a conscious effort to step back and take in other aspects of songs to see what else I can learn. Of course it's probably not wise to completely ignore the lyrics either. Witness today's video from The Lawrence Welk Show!
The Lawrence Welk Show was on the air from 1951-1982. When the show went into syndication in 1971, Lawrence attempted to add more contemporary hits to his standard music fare to attract a younger audience. Clearly no one at the show ever actually talked to any young people or this HILARIOUS bit of television history would never have happened:
You just know that after this show aired, someone's grandma (possibly mine) was pushing a cart around the A & P, stocking up on Hostess snacks and Doritos (or munchee food) for the grandkids, and singing this about toking with the depth of feeling that only a grandma can give to a "modern spiritual." Priceless!

B-movie legend Roger Corman is a prolific director with more than 50 titles to his credit. Among his movies, like 1960's Little Shop of Horrors and 1963's The Terror (both which featured a young Jack Nicholson), he's made eight features based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe. Clearly, a fan of the macabre author's disturbing stories, Corman is looking to revisit House of Usher, The Pit and the Pendulum, Premature Burial, Tales of Terror, The Raven, The Haunted Palace, The Masque of the Red Death, and The Tomb of Ligeia through a string of remakes.
As someone who feels horror as a genre lends itself well to 3D, I must admit I'm eager to see what Corman has in mind for the device. However, Corman hasn't helmed a feature since 1990's Frankenstein Unbound, and has no plans to return to the director's chair. Instead, he'll produce these pics, starting with House of Usher in 2013. From there, Corman plans to make two a year, each for as little as $2-2.5 million dollars. This means by the time the final feature in this series is released, Corman will be 91 years old, and have nearly 410 producer credits to his name. On average, that means he has produced about 6.5 films a year since his first in 1955.
Produced and financed through Corman's New Horizons Productions, each of the Poe adaptations will get a brief theatrical run in the U.S. and will have foreign distribution rights for sale at the American Film Market. For now, Corman is seeking a modern-day Vincent Price to be his star, hinting he's looking to TV for a fifty-something performer with Price's level of "sensitivity and neuroticism."

Book Review: Without Lying Down: Screenwriter Frances Marion and the Powerful Women of Early Hollywood by Cari Beauchamp

Without Lying Down: Screenwriter Frances Marion and the Powerful Women of Early Hollywood by Cari Beauchamp
Narrator: Holly Palance
Published by Spoken Realms on 02-06-19
Genres: Non-Fiction
Source: Publisher
Frances Marion was Hollywood's highest paid screenwriter - male or female - for almost three decades. She was the first woman to twice win an Academy Award for screenwriting. From 1916 to 1946 she wrote over two hundred scripts covering every conceivable genre for stars such as Mary Pickford, Gary Cooper, Greta Garbo, Marion Davies, Rudolph Valentino, Clark Gable, Marion Davies, Rudolph Valentino, Clark Gable, and Marie Dressler. Irving Thalberg "adored her and trusted her completely, " William Randolph Hearst named her for the head of west coast production for his Cosmopolitan studios, and in 1928, Sam Goldwyn raised her salary to an unparalleled $3,000 a week. Her stories were directed by George Cukor, John Ford, Alan Dwan, and King Vidor, and she went on to direct and produce a dozen films on her own. On top of all this, she painted, sculpted, spoke several languages fluently, and played "concert caliber" piano. Though she married four times, had two sons, and a dozen lovers, Frances's life story is mostly the story of her female friendships. As talented, successful, and prolific as Frances Marion was, these relationships were as legendary as her scripts. Without Lying Down is an eminently readable and meticulously documented portrait of a previously hidden era that was arguably one of the most creative and supportive for women in American history.
I found this book so inspiring that I have loved it from beginning to end. This is the story of Frances Marion, one of the most well-paid screenwriters in Hollywood, but it is also the story of everything surrounding her during those years. Her resilience, fairness, and how she believed in the power of women supporting women.
The book is a delight for any cinema aficionado, and it is interesting how the Hollywood landscape and industries changed over the years. Francis was a visionary, she had a unique talent for adapting and writing scripts, and when the times changed, with censorship, the coming of sound, and the economic crisis, she was able not only to survive but to flourish, always bringing support to the ones she loved, and the ones who have been for her over the years.
There are very well known names mentioned throughout the book, like her best friend Mary Pickford, a very young Gary Cooper, her old friend Jack London, and the charismatic Marie Dressler, among them. It is a journey through time in the history of cinema, and one that every cinephile must travel.
Holly Palance's voice kept a compelling tone throughout the book, keeping my attention at all times. Her narration definitely provided an excellent experience without interfering with the story.
Frances and all the women mentioned in the book should be an inspiration for all of us. Their inquietudes, strengths, and sorority are values that we must keep alive.

EXCLUSIVE: Man severely hurt in 2011 Oakland protest weighs in on current clashes between protesters, police
By Laura Anthony
OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- It's an incident that shocked the Bay Area and the nation in October 2011 -- A young protester, a Marine veteran who served two tours in Iraq, severely injured after being hit in the head by a police projectile, a lead-filled bean bag, during an Occupy protest in Oakland.

Scott Olsen had a fractured skull and was put into a medically-induced coma before being released from the hospital weeks later.
Today, Olsen is a 32-year-old farmer in Wisconsin, but his thoughts are not far from what happened to him nine years ago in Oakland, especially as he watches what's happening now between police and protesters across the country.

"I'm still living with some of the permanent affects of that brain injury," said Olsen via Zoom. "Especially the last few weeks. Police are using these munitions, whether it be these bean bag rounds, rubber bullets, tear gas, a whole wide range of things that are called less-lethal munitions. And they use them as if they don't cause any harm."

In 2014, Olsen won a $4.5 million dollar settlement from the City of Oakland over police use of force.
"I think we really made a mistake in allowing them to retain any of those weapons in their arsenal at all and that they need to be flatly prohibited from even bringing them to a crowd event," said Rachel Lederman, who represented Olsen in the federal lawsuit.

Today, Olsen is far away from the Bay Area, living on his farm, where he keeps bees and tends chickens.
But he will forever live with that night in Oakland.
He also wonders, even worries, if he could've done more to protect all the protesters that came after him.

"Makes me feel like I've let some people down," said Olsen. "That I couldn't have used my position a few years ago with this case to push harder for changes. I'm frustrated, angry and hopeful all at the same time. I'm frustrated and angry to see the police still using this violence, but I'm hopeful we can come out with a better solution."
According to Oakland Police, since Occupy, the department has significantly changed its training and policies, eliminating the use of certain projectiles, including the type of bean bag that injured Olsen.

BBC Crew, Tourists, Caught Up in Sicily's Mount Etna Volcanic Explosion
Luckily for the people at the summit of Mount Etna, on the Italian island of Sicily, it was not a full-fledged explosion. It still sent people scurrying for cover from boiling rocks. Caught up in the Thursday morning explosion was a BBC team and a number of tourists.
Apparently what happened was that a flow of lava ran into snow, producing superheated steam that sent fragments of rock flying in all directions. The explosion pelted the group with boiling rocks and steam. Some people suffered minor burns, cuts and bruises, and the group, scared and shaken, were quickly evacuated from the mountain by rescue teams.
