The decision of An Bord Pleanála to permit a 22-storey highrise tower at Tara Street, opposite the Custom House, is a catastrophic error which undoes decades of planning control in Dublin and will irrevocably damage the city's irreplaceable character.
Amid the general fiasco that has characterised Irish planning over the last 60 years, there was at least one achievement of maintaining Dublin as one of Europe's low-rise major historic cities. This is now lost.
The permitted 22-storey tower will constitute a massive intrusion on the established character of the city centre, having an enormous and adverse impact on a number of important Conservation Areas including Trinity College, the Liffey Quays, College Green and O'Connell Street.
The decision will have major repercussions for the status of Dublin; it is unlikely to now achieve the coveted UNESCO World Heritage Site status for 'Historic City of Dublin', which requires internationally-accepted standards for protection, conservation and management of the historic urban landscape.
Long-established height protections for the historic centre of Dublin were recklessly scrapped in new guidelines brought in by Minister Eoghan Murphy last year.

There are two ways to record a track for geo-tagging photos or other uses. One is to use a smartphone with a GPS app: I use an iPhone 5 with an app called Motion-X GPS. The other is to use a GPS designed for back-country use: I have a 13-year old Garmin unit.
+ It is easy to communicate geo-location information to other apps and other platforms, such as I do with my MacBook.
– Maps are selectively downloaded as needed, so I have to remember to force a download for an area without data service before I get there.
* I plan to carry an external battery pack for my iPhone during some late-June hiking in the western US to see how this works.

Faculty & Research › Publications › 2015 Investor Survey: Deconstructing Proxy Statements — What Matters to Investors
Stanford University, RR Donnelley, and Equilar. February
In the fall of 2014, RR Donnelley, Equilar, and the Rock Center for Corporate Governance at Stanford University surveyed 64 asset managers and owners with a combined $17 trillion in assets to understand how institutional investors use the information in corporate proxies to make voting and investment decisions.
Only 38 percent of institutional investors believe that corporate disclosure about executive compensation is clear and easy to understand.
"Shareholders want to know that the size, structure, and performance targets used in executive compensation contracts are appropriate," says Professor David F. Larcker of Stanford GSB. "Our research shows that, across the board, they are dissatisfied with the quality and clarity of the information they receive about compensation in the corporate proxy. Even the largest, most sophisticated investors are unhappy."
"With new pressure from activist investors and annual 'Say on Pay' (SOP) votes, it is more important than ever that companies explain to their shareholder base why the compensation packages they offer are appropriate in size and structure," says Aaron Boyd, Director of Governance Research at Equilar.
"Investors are noticing the wide range in quality and clarity among various companies' proxies. They want companies to communicate and explain, rather than simply disclose," adds Ron Schneider, Director of Corporate Governance Services at RR Donnelley Financial Services Group. "This represents a significant opportunity for many companies to improve the clarity of their proxies."
Investors are Deeply Dissatisfied with Compensation Disclosure
Less than half (38 percent) of institutional investors believe that information about executive compensation is clear and effectively disclosed in the corporate proxy. Responses are consistently negative across all elements of compensation disclosure. Sixty-five percent say that the relation between compensation and risk is "not at all" clear. Forty-eight percent say that it is "not at all" clear that the size of compensation is appropriate. Forty-three percent believe that it is "not at all" clear whether performance-based compensation plans are based on rigorous goals.
Significant minorities cannot determine whether the structure of executive compensation is appropriate (39 percent), cannot understand the relation between compensation and performance (25 percent), and cannot determine whether compensation is well-aligned with shareholder interests (22 percent). "Corporations must do a better job of articulating the rationale behind plan design," says Mr. Boyd. "It is not enough that disclosure in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis (CD&A) section of the proxy meets regulatory requirements. Companies should take renewed effort to be clear and concise in explaining their choices."
Proxies are Too Long and Difficult to Read; Investors Rely on Only a Small Fraction of the Information
Fifty-five percent of investors believe that a typical proxy statement is too long. Forty-eight percent believe that a typical proxy is difficult to read and understand. Investors claim to read only 32 percent of a typical proxy, on average. They report that the ideal length of a proxy is 25 pages, compared to the actual average of 80 pages among companies in the Russell 3000. "Lengthy disclosure does not necessarily equate with clear and digestible disclosure, and can actually impede rather than improve shareholder understanding of governance choices" observes Mr. Schneider. "Plain English language which is well-organized and easily navigated, coupled with simple design elements to draw the reader to key content, are much more effective in conveying information."
Investors are most satisfied with disclosure relating to director nominee descriptions and qualifications, director independence, and shareholder-sponsored proposals. They believe that disclosure relating to pay ratios (the ratios of CEO pay to median employee pay and CEO pay to other named executive officer pay), corporate political contributions, corporate social responsibility and sustainability, and CEO succession planning are least clear.
Investors Believe the Proxy Voting Process is a Valuable Exercise …
Eighty percent of investors believe that proxy voting increases shareholder value. Their confidence level that proxy voting increases value averages 7.2 on a scale of 1 to 10, with nearly a quarter of respondents (24 percent) assigning a confidence level of 10. Institutional investors are most likely to read the summary section of the proxy (if included), total compensation tables, and disclosure on long-term incentive plans. Investors also highly value a table highlighting significant changes from the previous year. For proxy voting decisions, investors rely most heavily on disclosure relating to pay-for-performance alignment, performance metrics used in compensation plans, and director independence.
In addition to proxy statements, investors are most likely to rely on internal policies or analysis (73 percent), third-party proxy advisors (63 percent), and direct engagement with the company (58 percent) to make voting decisions.
…However, Portfolio Managers are Only Moderately Involved in Voting Decisions
Seventy-six percent of institutional investors report that portfolio managers are involved in voting specific proxy items for the companies their organization is invested in. However, among those portfolio managers that do participate in voting decisions, the level of engagement is very low. A typical portfolio manager is involved in only 20 percent of voting decisions. Among large institutional investors [assets under management (AUM) greater than $100 billion] engagement is even lower: portfolio managers are involved in only 10 percent of decisions.
Portfolio managers that participate in voting tend to weigh in on major issues: mergers and acquisitions (89 percent), director nominations in a contested election (82 percent), executive compensation "say on pay" (75 percent), and proposals to approve or amend equity compensation plans (70 percent).
Two-thirds of respondents (68 percent) report that portfolio managers are involved in establishing their firm's proxy voting guidelines.
Proxies are Less Frequently Used for Investment Decisions
Fifty-nine percent of investors use proxy information for investment decisions. In making investment decisions, they rely most heavily on disclosure relating to performance metrics used in compensation plans, pay-for-performance alignment, the corporate governance profile of the firm (including shareholder rights and anti-takeover measures), and risk oversight.
Investors are Lukewarm that "Say on Pay" Leads to Tangible Improvement
A slight majority (54 percent) of shareholders believes that proxies allow them to make informed votes on executive compensation ("Say on Pay"). A similar percentage (58 percent) believes that "say on pay" is effective in influencing or modifying pay practices.
Complaints about disclosure might be related to dissatisfaction with pay practices in general. Only one-fifth (21 percent) of institutional investors believe that CEO compensation among companies in their portfolio is appropriate in size and structure. Twenty-one percent believe that CEO compensation among companies in their portfolio is clearly linked to performance. Only a quarter (26 percent) are able to understand the payouts that executives stand to receive under long-term performance plans.
"These are significantly negative perceptions of executive compensation," observes Professor Larcker. "'Say on Pay' is having some effect, engaging shareholders in a discussion about plan design. However, investors are still frustrated with pay levels overall and whether the packages awarded today are justified."

Holland Village was een buitenwijk van de Chinese stad Shenyang in oud-Nederlandse stijl. Holland Village was een initiatief van de Chinees-Nederlandse zakenman Yang Bin. De bouw van de wijk begon in 2000.

De wijk was enerzijds bedoeld als een soort pretpark en trouwlocatie en anderzijds als woonwijk. De stad kende grachten en panden met trapgevels. Op een rotonde stond een oud-Hollandse molen en er waren drie Sneeker Waterpoorten. Andere gebouwen waren het Vredespaleis uit Den Haag en het Centraal Station uit Amsterdam. Ook een kassencomplex met bedrijfswoningen uit het Westland ontbrak niet.

Uiteindelijk is Holland Village failliet gegaan. De meeste gebouwen zijn in 2009 gesloopt.

Jackson – Officials in southern Michigan are distributing free lightbulbs and having volunteers help install them in neighborhoods as part of an initiative to curb crime.
The Jackson Citizen Patriot reports that Jackson officials will be passing out free LED lightbulbs on five Thursday evenings throughout the summer starting July 12. Utility Consumers Energy donated 1,500 lightbulbs to the Light Up the City initiative.
Councilwoman Arlene Robinson says the initiative aims to use business partnerships and volunteers to build a "brighter, safer future" for the city. Volunteers will go door to door, encouraging residents to turn on their porch lights.
The Jackson utility's spokesman Brian Wheeler says lighting neighborhoods is a method to deter crime. He says the program has seen success in Saginaw, Flint and Muskegon.


On January 31, 2017, the general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB or Board) released a memo which stated it believed football players at private colleges qualify as employees. The Board declined to answer this question in 2015 when they dismissed a unionization effort by players at Northwestern University, citing concerns of instability if such a decision was rendered that only pertained to private universities. However, a recent decision by the NLRB that found in favor of graduate teaching assistants challenging their status as employees led general counsel to the conclusion that there was no reason football players at private universities should not be considered employees as well.
NLRB general counsel Richard Griffin authored the memorandum, which stated "scholarship football players should be protected by Section 7 [of the National Labor Relations Act]." The significance of the protections of Section 7 cannot be understated, as players may commence actions in regards to how universities protect players from head trauma, unsafe practice methods, and whether players should receive greater compensation for their time and effort.
NCAA chief legal officer Donald Remy released a statement in response stating "[t]he general counsel's memo and personal opinion do not reflect a binding position of the NLRB." However, the memo allows any interested party to bring unfair labor practice charges to the NLRB without naming a specific player. Although the memo invites players to challenge their universities labor practices, players will need to act quickly, as Griffin's term will end in November, and the five-member Board will flip from its current Democratic majority when Donald Trump appoints the NLRB's next general counsel.

Орден «Уацамонга» () — высшая государственная награда республики Южная Осетия. Учреждён в 2007 году. По состоянию на февраль 2015 года законодательного обеспечения не имеет.

В 2010 году был сформирован Союз кавалеров ордена.

Статус
По информации из открытых источников, орден вручается президентом Южной Осетии за проявление героизма и совершение подвигов в ходе военных действий, а также за существенный вклад в ликвидацию последствий таковых. В мае 2012 года собрание кавалеров ордена обсуждало проект закона о статусе награды, который планировалось передать на рассмотрение в правительстве 10 июня того же года. В частности, предполагалось, что лица, награждённые данным орденом, смогут рассчитывать на бесплатное медицинское обслуживание, образование, проезд в общественном транспорте и получение либо строительство недвижимого имущества. Также орден вручается городам при присвоении им звания «Город-герой».

Краткое описание
Лента ордена состоит из трёх равношироких чередующихся полос, двух красных и одной белой, с жёлтым окаймлением по сторонам. Орденской знак имеет вид восьмиконечной серебряной звезды, частично покрытой рубиновой эмалью, с двумя золотыми перекрещенными мечами. На центральном медальоне, по кругу на белой эмали, — девиз ордена и изображение лавровой ветви. В центре медальона — золотое рельефное изображение чаши.

Наименование
Орден поименован по названию мифологического артефакта Уацамонга, упоминаемого в осетинском нартском эпосе. Согласно источникам, артефакт имел вид четырёхугольной пиршественной чаши, наделенной рядом магических свойств. В частности, напитки внутри чаши были неиссякаемы; кроме того, «если кто-либо из пирующих говорил правду о своих ратных подвигах, Уацамонга сама поднималась к его губам, если же хвастался понапрасну — Уацамонга не трогалась с места».
