Honda Cars in India
Honda Motor Company
Honda Motor Company is a Japanese automotive and motorcycle manufacturer. The company is not only one of the world's largest motorcycle manufacturers but is also a one of the world's largest producers of internal combustion engines. The company has the capacity to manufacture more than 14 million internal combustion engines every year.
Honda Motor History and Launch
Honda Motors was launched in the year 1948 by Soichiro Honda. Initially, Honda Motors Company Limited started production by manufacturing motorcycles. The "C" model motor cycle was the company's first successful production. Following that the company produced the "Dream D" motorcycle, which was put together by the initial twenty employees. This model was extremely successful as it was both inexpensive and had excellent fuel economy. After the success of the "D' model, Honda introduced the "E" model, which was another major success for Honda.
In the early 1950s, Honda was under threat of some economic depression, but the success of "D", "C' and "E" models brought fame to the company. In 1955, Honda was gradually shattering the economic depression storm and became a successful motorcycle producer in Japan. Soon the company went on to become the top most motorcycle manufacturer in the country. In 1959, the company expanded sales worldwide and started to bloom. The company planned to open plants in various countries in Southern Asia, Europe and in America.
Contradictory of the advice Honda received from many market leaders at the time, they still opened a motorcycle manufacturing plant in America. Fujisawa (Honda's trusted advisor)felt America was the best place for marketing their products. As a result, the company opened Honda Motor Company in America in the year 1959.
In the early 1960s, Honda Motors founder Soichiro Honda won Isle of Man, which won Honda much publicity in America. During this decade, Honda saw many victories in the racing world. With the result, the company started its racing tradition. In 1963, the Honda introduced Super sports motorcycles like the C77, which had a 305 cc engine and the CB77 in the same league. In 1968, the company stopped producing the CB72 and CB77. After that, Honda produced the CB250 and CB350, which were equipped with five-speed gearboxes and high performance SOHC twins. However, the CB450 was a failure worldwide.
In 1969, the company sold its first automobile in the United States. Honda's "CB" motorcycle gained immediate popularity in America and this gave rise to a faithful relationship amongst many and Honda's products. The company became well-placed in America. Honda started with the production of Japanese motorcycles and then the company moved into global motorcycle production and finally landed into global automobile production.
Honda Motors launch in India
Honda Motors was launched in India in 1995 under the name of Honda Siel Cars India Limited (HSCI), which is a joint venture between Honda Motor Company of Japan and Siel Limited (a part of Siddharth Group). Honda is the sixth largest automobile company in India. Since its launch, the company has invested Rs. 800 crores in India.
Honda set up its manufacturing unit in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh in 1997. The company launched this unit with an investment of Rs. 450 crores and initially it had the capacity of installing 30,000 cars per annum. Later on, the company expanded its capacity to 50,000 cars per annum on a two shift basis. In 2008, Honda has further expanded its capacity to producing 1,00,0000 cars annually.
Honda motors founder
Soichiro Honda is the founder of Honda Company and he is the one to have brought about mass motorcycle production. He was a visionary.. Soichiro Honda was also a lover of racing, which led him to build racing motorcycles with perpetually faster and bigger engines.
Honda Motive

In 1920, he returned back to Hamamatsu in order to open an auto repair shop of his own. Honda was fascinated by races and racing cars. As a result, he built his own race car eventually. After a few years, he started producing piston rings as a business, which he sold later on. In 1948, he incorporated Honda Motor Company Limited and focused on the automobile business in full swing.

text: I have a question about your Sticky Thinking. Do you require your students to do it everyday during IDR time? Do they have to have so many to turn in at the end of the day or is it just an outlet to jot the thinking down on when it is not a time to share? I have some kids that I know are reading the whole time, but NEVER write down anything on a Sticky Note. They have have like 2 pages filled for this entire school year. I get frustrated at times because I have modeled it, shared examples of classmates, done it as a class read aloud, and again in small groups. Most of the time, it is my stronger readers that just want to read. I almost feel like they don't want to be bothered with it. While I know I need to be able to hold the students accountable for they are doing while I cannot meet with them, I hate to keep on these students about doing it when they are truly motivated and strong readers. What do you do if a student is not doing the Sticky Thinking as they are reading independently? Do you have kids that just read for 40 minutes without doing anything except reading the book? Is that ok?

From left to right: Yosef Peretz, Elyse Behar, trip adviser Malkie Krieger, Zac Groffman, Itai Amon, and Zev Behar on their tour through old Jewish Spain.
From the beginning it was obvious: This would be the best summer ever. My best friend Itai and I boarded a plane to New York and arrived later that day. Over the next hour the most important people in my life would walk through the terminal entrance — I just didn't know it yet. Besides the amazing friends I made this summer, almost as important were the memories. This trip was great for obvious reasons — what teenager wouldn't want to travel to Spain and Israel with 38 other kids his age? It was also the first time someone from my immediate family, aside from my grandfather, had returned to Spain since the Inquisition. In my cousin's house a necklace hangs on the wall with a short paragraph beside it that explains the Behar family history. The one sentence that always stood out was, "Toledo, where our family lived for many years with great satisfaction." When looking through NCSY's Euro ICE program brochure, I saw that they would be traveling to Spain, and, more important, to Toledo. I immediately managed to convince my parents to let me go, and with help from Seattle NCSY director Ari Hoffman, Elise Peizner of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, and the SAMIS Foundation, I was on my way. Our trip to Toledo on the second day was the most meaningful experience of the trip. We visited the churches and learned about the Inquisition and the oppression of the Jews in Spain. We then visited a Sephardic synagogue museum. It was strange to think how my ancestors may have once attended this synagogue until they were kicked out of Spain in 1492. During free time, some of my newfound friends and I walked around nearly the entire city. For two hours I walked in the footsteps of my ancestors, from the highest point in the city to the lowest. It was an unforgettable experience getting to see what my family hadn't seen for generations. Sitting at the top of the city, overlooking the high-rising churches and everything else the city held in all its grandeur, I couldn't help but wonder how my family had lived when they were here. Because of this trip I felt a strong connection to my past, and it only grew stronger as we traveled the rest of Spain and most of Israel, following the course of Maimonides's life.

News Release
Welcome Back, Cerro Coso Students
January 16, 2013
First Week of Classes
- Go to class – be on time.
- Get to know your professor – name, office location, office hours and preferred method of communication.
- Go to class prepared (textbook, notebook, pens, etc.).
- Find out about campus resources (Library, Counseling, Student Success Center, Tutoring, etc.) that will benefit you throughout the semester.
- Get a planner (calendar, phone) that you will use. The Student Handbook includes a very handy, dandy day planner.
- Read your syllabus and understand deadlines. A syllabus is not junk mail – it is a contract.
- Check your college assigned email regularly.
- Try to sit toward front and center of class.
- Get the phone number or email address of at least one student in your class who can share notes in case you are absent.
- Get into your "I'm ready to learn" attitude.
Study Strategies
- Get the correct materials for each of your classes.
- Learn how to manage your time (Balance academic, work, family and social life.).
- Make use of time-management strategies. It's easy to fall behind, but hard to catch up. By setting priorities and creating a semester schedule with major deadlines (i.e. exams, papers, projects) you can plot an "attack strategy" to get things done.
- Establish a regular time to study and a regular place to study. Have an area in your home where your books "live." Make it your space.
- Partner with other students. Study with a (serious) group.
- Take notes in class. It will keep you focused – even if you think the class is boring. Highlight key points of emphasis from the instructor.
- Read and prepare before going to class, participate in class discussions, turn in assignments on time and review within 24 hours after class.
- When studying, review is your strongest tool. If you read your assignments and take notes, but never revisit them (and not just a once over before a test), you haven't built a strong foundation to remember it later.
- Utilize the Library, Student Success Center, Computer Lab and tutoring services. They are there to help you!
- Learn how to study! Cramming is not a study technique.
General Tips
- Take care of yourself physically, emotionally, spiritually.
- Eat breakfast and bring healthy "portable" foods with you. Items such as fresh fruit, trail mix, etc. You'll get more mileage out of an apple than a bag of potato chips.
- Sleep an appropriate amount of hours so you are refreshed and ready for class the next day.
- Establish a rapport with your professors and let them know if you're having problems that might hurt your academic success.
- Learn collegiate classroom etiquette.
- If you have to miss class, let the professor know ahead of time.
- Take a study skills, computer or student development class to enhance your current skills.
- Take responsibility for your own education. Professors can encourage and support the learning process, but they cannot make you learn. Remember, professors don't give good or bad grades; students earn them.
What not to do!
- Show up late to class and disrupt the learning process.
- Sleep in class.
- Make up excuses.
- Be absent, and when you return to class, ask, "Did I miss anything important?"
- Texting or doing other technology-related things in class, such as checking your Facebook account, Tweeting . . . or worse.
- Talking to the students around you and distracting the rest of the class.
- Being disrespectful to the professor and/or other students.
So there you have it. We hope you have a wonderful and productive semester. And always remember, if you need help, just ask. The staff and faculty at Cerro Coso Community College are dedicated to your success!

With majors like engineering, computer science and nursing, there may not seem to be a whole lot of room for generalized majors like liberal arts. All of the aforementioned majors train you for a very specific field, whereas liberal arts degrees (which include philosophy, literature and history) don't, making "What are you going to do with your degree?" one of the most common questions liberal arts majors are asked.
While it's true that the broadness of liberal arts degrees can make finding a job difficult, this broadness also presents more opportunities than many other degrees. According to the University of California at Davis, the skill most valued by employers is the ability to communicate effectively. This is to a liberal arts major's advantage, as their classes require a lot of writing, critical thinking and listening – all of which are crucial to effective communication. Along this same line, technologically-driven communication like texting and IMing has made our society increasingly reliant on "chat speak" and its disregard for grammar, punctuation, etc. Some people worry decent writers are becoming scarce but liberal arts degree holders lay these fears to rest.
Additionally, liberal arts majors are creative individuals. They've been forced to draw connections between seemingly unrelated ideas and translate abstract information into concrete, easily understandable ideas. In today's ever-changing business world, problem solvers and innovators – two traits often held by liberal arts majors – are extremely valuable.
In sum, if you decide to major in a liberal arts field and worry you'll lack the training for more specialized jobs, you can make up for it in your ability to think outside the box.

Before college, the only time I'd ever shared a room with someone was at sleep-away camp. Living in a bunk with a dozen other girls was certainly an experience but I was still nervous about moving in with my freshman roommate. We'd talked on Facebook but never met in person and all of a sudden we were supposed to live together harmoniously.
Not only did we survive that first year without killing each other but we successfully lived together sophomore year and will be moving back in together in August for year number three. Pretty good for a first roommate experience! While I lucked out in finding someone I'm totally compatible with, I think our trick was abiding by several unwritten rules.
First and foremost is respect. We never touch each other's things (including food) unless we get permission to. At the same time, there are certain things we share: Her printer is mine to use as I need it (as long as I help pay for ink), she has full privileges with my television and then there was the time we bought a jar of Nutella together. Respect also involves being quiet when you come in at 3 a.m. and keeping sexiling to a bare minimum (no pun intended).
Compromising is important as well. You'll have to learn to go to sleep with the lights on now and then (I did) or plug in your headphones if your roommate wants to turn in early. If you both go in knowing that you'll have to give a little, you'll make each other's transition much easier.
In my opinion, the most important aspect of living together is liking each other! You don't have to be BFFs but spend some time together and find something to bond over. Do you both hate the Yankees? Are you both huge OneRepublic fans? Heck, do you both like Nutella? It can be the littlest things that form a great relationship and make living together a pleasure.

When I was preparing for my first study abroad to Jerusalem, I envisioned myself walking though the cobblestone streets and trying exotic foods and seeing wonderful sights. The one thing that my pre-departure vision never included was other people. I always imagined myself alone and having the time of my life. It wasn't until we got together, all in one room, that I realized that girl who asked that silly question was going to be there and that guy who looked too cool for school was going to be there and that this trip was going to be full of people and not just places.
I ended up falling in love with my Jerusalem group. Those bad first impressions resolved themselves over time and we found ourselves attached to one another in a way that is much more than the "false intimacy of fellow travelers." Study abroad rules often dictate that you travel everywhere in groups, meaning that these people are going to punctuate every experience you have in your destination of choice. Don't let that punctuation be big ol' question marks or – worse – frustrated exclamation points.
As you start your journey looking into the faces of strangers that you will ultimately get to know better than you can currently imagine, remember what Ralph Waldo Emerson said: "Every man I meet is my superior in some way. In that, I learn of him." Everyone in your study abroad group will have something unique and wonderful to offer your experience, so be open to accepting that contribution. When you discover some great and respectable trait in a travel buddy, be confident enough to tell them so. Everyone will be feeling a little out of whack in a new place and that kind of lift will connect you and improve the adventure for you both.

One of the most striking differences between high school and college is how everyone pays attention to the news. Most students are up to date with their current events and world happenings and they love to talk about it in and out of class. So how can you become news savvy?
Whether they are reading online newspapers, blog or user-generated content on social media sites, college students get their news primarily through the Internet. I first learned about Bin Laden's death through Facebook after someone had posted it as their status and I know people who get Twitter updates from online publications sent directly to their phones so they can stay on top of major news events.
Another way to gather news is by watching television. CNN or MSNBC is always on in the cafeteria or coffeehouse area at my school. My friends and I tune in to those channels but we prefer to watch "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and "The Colbert Report." These shows keep you informed without beating you over the head with hours of unimportant opinions and reports and they make you laugh in the process.
Of course, there is always the traditional method of gathering news: newspapers and other print media. When I'm on campus, I never have to look very far to find copies of the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Wall Street Journal or a number of local publications. Not only are these print publications widely available to students every day but they are also free. Thanks, U of R!
So for all you incoming college freshmen, I would recommend you brushing up on your current events and for all you fellow college goers, how do you stay informed?

Spring semester ends and summer rolls in with its blossoming heat and sunny days. Summer classes are starting up, birds are gathering in trees to sing their summery tunes and some students are starting their job search...late.
I tend to start looking for a summer job in the early spring in order to secure a position but if you have a particularly demanding spring semester class schedule, you're not going to get this kind of head start. In an injured economy, it's difficult to find a job, especially in smaller college towns that are not located near metropolitan areas. Many businesses are often family-owned – there are lots in my college town – which usually eliminates anyone outside of the family for employment.
The best thing to initiate late in the job hunt is to check with your school. Ask around to see if there are any openings for summer help. The admissions office is a good place to start but dining services is also a great hidden opportunity. With the lack of summer students, your school will probably be looking for help. I joined up with a catering service through my school where I work weddings and class reunions and – get this – set my own hours.
The most important advice about any type of job hunting is that you cannot be picky. I cannot stress this enough. If you've got rent and bills to pay, you've got to make money somehow. Apply everywhere – gas stations, gift shops, restaurants, department stores – and if you've still got nothing, fast-food might have to be an option. At least fill out an application; you can always decline the offer if you find something else. With today's economy, cash-strapped college students can't afford to cherry pick. The race is on, time is ticking and money is waiting to be made.
In addition to being a Scholarships.com virtual intern, Michigan Tech student Kayla Herrera is a media coordinator for the Michigan Tech Youth Programs, a writer for The Daily News in Iron Mountain, Mich., and a writer for Examiner.com. She love a tantalizing, action-packed video game and can't get enough of horror movies (Stephen King's books always have her in their grip, though she prefers the old over the new). Writing is what she has always done, and that is what she is here to do.
Do you ever feel frustrated or overwhelmed with the amount of homework you have? Is it impossible to see the light at the end of the tunnel? There are all kinds of resources at your college which can help!
If you're having trouble writing an essay or just want someone to look over your work, the writing lab is there for you. Writing lab tutors are trained to help you with everything from grammar and punctuation to strengthening your argument. They can even help you get started if you feel like you're having a case of the dreaded writer's block.
As the name suggests, math lab tutors can help you with all levels of math. I've even heard of students coming in to learn how to use their graphing calculators. Even as an online student, I have access to the writing lab, math lab and all kinds of services designed to give me feedback from the comforts of my own home.
So many students are reluctant to ask for help because they are worried it will make them seem unintelligent. Don't worry: Asking questions shows that you are conscientious, determined and hard-working. Teachers appreciate students who are curious enough about the material to ask questions.
Even though going to the writing lab or math lab requires you to spend time on your coursework outside of class, you'll generally be able to schedule one-on-one appointments with tutors to ensure you get the help you need. In my experience, hardly anyone ever came to math lab or writing lab, giving me plenty of opportunities to ask all the questions I wanted.
The best part about these resources is that they're free! You're already paying for college, so why not take advantage of something that won't dip into your savings for a change?

Whether it is gas, food or tuition, prices are rising on everything. Everyone wants to attend their dream college without having to end up in debt at the end. College tuition will, depending on your university, have a small increase in price every academic year but if you plan ahead and follow these helpful tips, you can ease that financial burden.
First, open a savings account at your local bank to learn how to manage your money. Banks such as Fifth Third offer students goal setter savings accounts, which allow students to put money into the bank to gain interest as well as receive a 10-percent bonus when they reach their goal. A goal can be $500 and up and you cannot make withdrawal until the goal is met. This feature allows the money to grow without allowing you to give in to temptation and drain the account.
Another way to save is by adjusting your meal plan each semester. Most colleges and universities require that all freshmen have a meal plan each semester and upperclassmen usually have some sort of meal plan whether they live on campus or off. Meal plans are packaged with room and board and can become very expensive. Instead of choosing the meal plan with the most meals per day, choose a meal plan that works for your appetite.
Finally, consider applying to be a resident assistant, or RA, in the university dorms. RAs have to take on a lot of responsibilities like mentoring students and enforcing residence hall policies in addition to a full class schedule but the tradeoff is well worth it: Room and board is free.

On June 9th, Alabama governor Robert Bentley signed what supporters and opponents alike consider to be the toughest law on immigration in the nation.
The law, due to come into effect on September 1st, requires police officers to check the immigration status of anyone they suspect might be illegal if they are pulled over for some other reason. (It's also a criminal act to harbor or give a ride to someone who is in the country illegally.) Alabama businesses are required to use the E-Verify database to check the immigration status of their employees and businesses that employ illegal aliens could have their business licenses suspended or even revoked.
Opponents of the bill are honing their attacks on the fact that public schools will be required to check the residency status of their students. Jared Shepherd, an attorney with the ACLU, said he is concerned illegal immigrants will not send their children to school out of fear of being arrested. One of the bill's sponsors, Senator Scott Beason of Gardendale, said that particular section of the bill is intended to gather information about how many illegal aliens attend Alabama public schools, and the cost of educating them. In fact, the bill specifically states that "primary and secondary education" is a public benefit that does not require residency to be verified.
In the 1982 case Plyler v. Doe, the United States Supreme Court ruled that illegal immigrants could not be denied a public education based on their status. The writers of the immigration bill studied Plyler v. Doe previously, and the state bill contains no provisions violating it. Also, because of the way this bill was written, if one section of the bill is ruled to be unconstitutional, the rest of the law will still stand. "We want anybody who wants to make their home here to be able to do so," says Representative John Merrill. "But we want every one of them to do it the right way."
As a lifelong Alabama resident and current undergraduate student, I don't believe this law will impact me personally – I am a citizen and every international student I know is either part of an exchange program or recently obtained citizenship – but I can see how it might hinder illegal students from wanting to pursue or continue higher education. The real test will be when the law comes into effect in three months.

There are many things I wish I knew before I started college...or even a year or two in! Tips about what professors are difficult, what dining halls serve the best food and where to find the dorms with the most square footage are quite often available but the biggest tip – which you won't realize until you're done with school – is that college itself teaches you how to get by in life.
The process begins before college with the prep work you do. You take six classes a semester in high school when during college you take three to five classes depending on the semester or quarter system. You take the SAT or ACT, which test your ability to take a test itself, not your intellectual abilities. You participate in every extracurricular possible to make your transcripts appealing, only to realize that those activities won't really matter on campus. All of these tasks are tests: In college, you'll spread yourself thin between a job, challenging classes, clubs and your social life but thanks to your prep work, you'll know how to balance it all.
Once you're on campus, college prepares you for the obstacles and struggles that await everyone after graduation. You'll take engineering courses, biology labs and communications lectures and complete projects and papers to gauge how well you can apply the material you've learned and tight deadlines to help you to think on your feet. Whether you're finding a way to pay off student loans or trying to secure a job in your field, those seemingly small assignments you completed in college will have prepared you to deal with the real world.
You'll gain a lot from your college experience – friends, memories, knowledge – but most importantly is your degree, a testimony that you will be able to make it in life beyond those hallowed halls.
Radha Jhatakia is a communications major who will be transferring to San Jose State University this fall. She's had some ups and downs in school and many obstacles to face; these challenges – plus support from family, friends and cat – have only made Radha stronger and have given her the experience to help others with the same issues. In her spare time, she enjoys writing, reading, cooking, sewing and designing. A social butterfly, Radha hopes to work in public relations and marketing upon graduation.

When I first arrived at college, joining a fraternity – or getting involved with anything remotely connected with Greek life – was the furthest thing from my mind. Little did I know that by the end of 2007, I would be one of the founding pledge members of the Methodist University chapter of Kappa Sigma. The first members at a new school are known as Founding Fathers, of which I was one, and our training is known as pledging. My new fraternity brothers and I were pledges for a full academic year until our induction in 2008.
If you are considering joining a Greek organization, fraternity or sorority, there are multiple things you must consider. First is how much being involved will affect your schoolwork. I was able to maintain a high GPA while still being scholarship coordinator for the chapter until the summer I lived with some of my brothers.
Second, determine how much Greek life will affect your personal life. I didn't really start partying until that summer and it negatively impacted my academics and social life. You should determine whether or not joining a Greek society will subject you to peer pressure or negatively influence your values.
Third, price is a major factor and you should not rush if you cannot afford to pay dues. My fees became more expensive with each year and I could only afford them with the money I made doing a paid internship.
Going Greek does have many benefits, such as gaining friends and valuable networking contacts that you might not have encountered otherwise. I spent time with golf students and athletes that I would have otherwise never met. Greek life may also help you overcome personal biases. All in all, while fraternity life was both a blessing and a curse, I do not regret my decision to join and have made some lifelong friends and brothers along the way.

"Everybody!" The guys standing behind the counter with her smiled at me.

About Sulphur crime rates
Sulphur has an overall crime rate of 15 per 1,000 residents, making the crime rate here near the average for all cities and towns of all sizes in America. According to our analysis of FBI crime data, your chance of becoming a victim of crime in Sulphur is 1 in 65. How does Sulphur fare compared to other communities in Oklahoma of all population sizes? Sulphur's crime rate is lower than approximately 55% of Oklahoma communities.
How does the crime rate in Sulphur compare to similar sized communities across America? When NeighborhoodScout compared Sulphur with other communities its size, we found that the crime rate was near the average for all other communities of similar size. So, whether Sulphur's crime rate is high or low compared to all places in the US, when we control for population size and compare it to places that are similar in size, it is near the middle of the pack in crime rate; not much more or less dangerous, and about what we would expect from the statistics.
The crime data that NeighborhoodScout used for this analysis are the seven offenses from the uniform crime reports, collected by the FBI from 17,000 local law enforcement agencies, and include both violent and property crimes, combined.
Now let us turn to take a look at how Sulphur does for violent crimes specifically, and then how it does for property crimes. This is important because the overall crime rate can be further illuminated by understanding if violent crime or property crimes (or both) are the major contributors to the general rate of crime in Sulphur.
NeighborhoodScout's research shows that Sulphur's violent crime rate is 1 per one thousand inhabitants, which is about average for all communities in America, across all population sizes. Violent crimes that are tracked and included in this rate are armed robbery, aggravated assault, forcible (not statutory) rape, and murder and non-negligent manslaughter. Roughly similar to the national average, our analysis shows that your chance of becoming a victim of violent crime in Sulphur is one in 712.
Moreover, the rate of property crime in Sulphur; burglary, larceny ($50 or more), grand theft auto, and arson; is 14 per 1,000 residents. This is about average for all cities and towns in America of all population sizes.

Oh yes I'm sure a Tory government can be trusted with workers rights... Longer hours, lower wages, high levels of debit and a scared and obedient work force... Can't wait....
QUESTIONS about the role of unions in the past are interesting, and we can learn from the answers, but for the most part this is water under the bridge.
Unions may have been the answer at one time—there is considerable disagreement about this—but the world has changed. In an increasingly globalised world where digital and other technology allow firms to easily escape unionised labour, unions have lost their ability to act as an equalising force in negotiations over wages and benefits.
Global labor organisations could provide an alternative, but this would require global institutions that do not presently exist, and that do not look likely to emerge anytime soon. For now, the answer has to come domestically and the only institution powerful enough to protect workers is government. Government-provided health and dental care, security in old age, workplace safety, insurance against job loss, higher education that is essentially free, and other such benefits would go a long way toward remedying what workers have lost since the 1970s. In addition, government redistribution of income may be needed to ensure that economic gains are shared more equitably. In combination, this would provide the things that unions fought to get for workers and maintain the current social protections that government provides.
However, while we've made a start on health care, it's hard to be optimistic that workers will realise any gains. Budget problems and political realities make it unlikely that government will provide new benefits or engage in substantial redistribution, and the GOP is doing its best to roll back health care legislation. In such an environment, workers will be lucky to keep what they already have.

Oh yes I'm sure a Tory government can be trusted with workers rights... Longer hours, lower wages, high levels of debit and a scared and obedient work force... Can't wait....
@Ohio conservative - Or the US could always make something the world wants to buy. Like it did when the unions were even stronger...
Welcome to the real world, where employers have the other option of moving to a location where they are appreciated and not subject to government and union blackmail. So, strengthen unions and government control if you wish, you will see more jobs go to China.
I would tend to agree with the professor, but only to a point. The snag with this idea is that the government is controlled by political parties and parties are beholden to the interests that support them. For the government to establish a full-fledged welfare state would need the cooperation of interests for whom no benefit is derived. Why would industry accept higher taxes and limited access to healthcare or pension markets when they can politically undermine labor and get better results (for them) at lower cost? Unions are perhaps not the most efficient way to organize the labor market. But just as political activity has economic consequences, so too does economic activity have political consequences. In our system, it is naive to think the government has the ability to act in a way that is counter to the interests of their most well financed and well organized supporters.
Digital technologies do not help manufacturers with labour needs escape from unions.
The notion that governments will help workers is a noble one, but the concentration of wealth is with the corporate owners and the concentration of productivity is with the corporations. In the political reality you allude to, corporations call the shots. Let's not forget "too big to fail."
If workers aren't being screwed by management, there's no value in paying for a union when they're getting fair treatment already. Unions stand up for their members when the members are historically getting screwed. That's how they started. Today, the workers are getting screwed, and now the corporations have control of government, so they're being outlawed.
There's nothing inherently wrong with unions from a moral perspective. There is, however, something inherently wrong with banning them from a moral perspective: It precludes free association and cooperative intent. It enforces the interests of the corporations over the interests of the workers.
Countries that claim to stand for freedom have no business in banning collective bargaining.
My comment is the following. I believe that people and governments in general should learn to treat the two union sectors as two completely different entities and not compare them with one another or subject one to the rules of the other.
Plain and simple, Public service unions are supported, funded, and whatever you want to call it, by the TAXPayer. Public service unions face no competition and do not function in a free and open market. By default the taxpayer in effect who is the employer has over the decades has had no say in what should democratically have been their right to by virtue of the fact that they are the people who make decisions on what a Public service unions can do and not do, without interference. Remember, We the People... Not, not... We the government or we the Public service union.
Private sector unions. A whole different kettle of fish. The private sector union works in a free and open market. The private sector union has competition and will only survive if they are competitive. The workers in these two different union sectors also have different work ethic philosophies that make them as different as night and day. It seems a public sector union and it's membership will or is willing only to think of themselves and will bankrupt it's employer without regard to the people.
Private sector unions built this country and supplied almost all the wealth that this country has generated. Big difference. These two union sectors are not the same and they are not brothers and sisters in the labour movement.

Ongoing Research:
- Collaborative Memory and Aging: I examine the relationship between prior group collaboration and later individual memory in younger and older adults. I examine this relationship across time, stimuli and retrieval tasks. One goal of this research is to specify the cognitive and the neural mechanisms underlying group collaboration. Another goal is to identify collaborative recall situations that are particularly favorable to later individual memory in older adults and can guide the development of cognitive interventions that involve group collaboration. A final goal is to develop a computer-based approach to collaborative learning and memory for older adults.
- Cognitive Training, Aerobic Exercise and Aging: I am also involved in a research project that examines how older adults acquire new, complex, and cognitively demanding skills and whether acquiring such skills improve overall cognitive functions. One goal of this research is to identify and determine the efficiency of the strategies that older adults adopt during complex skill acquisition. Another goal is to identify skills and strategies that also improve overall cognitive functions. Finally, I am involved in a research project that examines the combined effects of cognitive training and aerobic exercise on overall cognitive functions in older adults.

Comments about Tabarome Cologne:
Authentic product! I was very worried when I ordered after reading numerous reviews all over the internet. I have various authentic Creed scents that I have purchased from retail stores and the Creed boutique and this one was no different! I even did a check against every element of the bottle and the package and no differences found. The scent smells amazing too, I love the freshness early but not overpowering which turns into more of a ginger/tobacco scent after a few hours.
Only bad thing about this experience was that it took 10 days for it to leave the FragranceX warehouse even though it said it was ready to ship! Once it was away with DHL it was very quick to arrive.

Carol P. DEAR CAROL, Sincerely, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, Sincerely, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, DEAR RANDY, Sincerely, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, Esther Murphy DEAR ESTHER, Sincerely, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, # # # DEAR ENERGY GUY, # # # Dear Energy Guy, Im [sic] not sure how long youve had another five hour energy [sic] commercial out for with the older gentleman who sounds like one of his balls are in a vice, but its absolutely horrible. I laugh, then turn the channel every time as well as 90% of the people I know, just so you guys know. Corey Hayden I HATE THE NEW COMMERCIAL [sic] I HONESTLY DONT THINK ILL [sic] BUY THE PRODUCT EVER AGAIN UNTIL IT IS EITHER CHANGED BACK TO THE OLD ONE OR RE-SHOOT [sic] A NEW ONW [sic] Edward Walker I would like to say how much i [sic] dislike the new salesperson on the commercials. He is a terrible actor and the old guy with the black hair was a lot better than him. You cant even compare the two because they are in two totally different leagues. So i [sic] would 5 hour energy [sic] to re-hire and put on the spokesperson before the old man. I dislike this man very much. Evan Loukadakis Mansura, LA Dear Corey, Edward and Evan, We here at 5-hour ENERGY® respect the right of individuals to express their opinions, no matter how awkwardly. We respect this right so much that we are willing to place spiteful, poorly written opinions like yours on our website. So even though some people place far too much importance on TV commercials, and have nothing better to do than form criticisms and seek outlets for expressing criticism about said commercials, despite the fact that, among myriad other horrible things going on around us, an unprecedented ecological disaster is currently taking place (right in your backyard, Evan), we are honored to publish their opinions, as written, for all to see. What can I say? I love the First Amendment. The Energy Guy # # # Dear Energy Guy, I just want to let you know that because of your ubiquitious [sic] "2:30 Feeling" ad campaign I will absolutely never try your product. What a belittling [sic] annoying message - talking to us like were children incapable of realizing [sic] when were tired, and mocking us for being boring office drones. Ill take my $5M [sic] and buy a drink that takes more than 3 seconds to drink. Wayne S. Dear Wayne, Most people perceive that ad as identifying common problem (afternoon grogginess) and offering a possible solution (5-hour ENERGY®). Rather than feeling belittled and annoyed, theyve bought a lot of 5-Hour Energy - and I mean a lot. So even though we would love to have your $5M ($5,000?) well try our best to soldier on without it. The Energy Guy # # # Dear Energy Guy, I love 5-hour energy [sic] but your writers for the commercials need to go. Its [sic] unfortunate your writers are avoiding opportunities for creative storytelling by repeating the same script with a different actor/talent. For an original beverage you need inventive commercials. Get new writers! Please. Ryan Hammaker Dear Ryan, After consulting with our writers, they have refused to go. Its true that they have avoided opportunities for creative storytelling. Instead they have stubbornly pursued a reckless path of presenting a clear, concise message that people can understand, and sticking with what is working. If you could see the rocketship-esque sales trend since the 2:30 Feeling campaign started, youd stick with it, too. Creative storytelling may win awards, but it doesnt sell product. The Energy Guy # # # Dear Energy Guy, # # # Dear Energy Guy, Your television commercials are terrible. Not the content or subject, but the production value. The color correction is off with every shot and the sound levels are just as bad. This makes you ads tacky and laughable. I do not want to buy your product because you can't find a decent production company to do your ads well. I have been in the advertising business for years. Your ad campaign is not cutting it! Please fire the people you have and get new ones that know what they are doing. - Jaron Briggs # # # Dear Energy Guy, Saw your TV ad. Who signed off on that? I wear glasses and used to box and play hockey. [Explicative deleted] I'll use my platform as an improv actor to ridicule your product. - Chris # # # Dear Energy Guy, # # # Dear Energy Guy, Signed, Dear On-2-U Sincerely, # # # Dear Energy Guy Your commercials are offensive! I considered trying your product until I saw how you portrayed skaters/punks! I am upset at your commercial for stating "work, you should try it some time." How dare you assume that every skater is a slacker!!! You may not convince me that your product is any better than the ones I've been taking!!! Signed, Dear Alyssa, How dare you assume that we're assuming. The portrayal of one skater as a slacker does not an assumption make. Is there not one slacker among the skateboarding community? Puleeez. I'm sure that the vast majority of skateboarders are hard working, scholarly and perhaps saintly people, but every group has its share of slackers. Not every group is so whiny, though. Lighten up. The Energy Guy # # # Dear Energy Guy, Your last commercail i saw about your product five hour energy had me appauled. Your so jugdemental in it and ill will tell everyone i know to never purchase your product including me. Signed, How about this: I find your most recent 5-hour ENERGY® commercial appalling. It's judgmental and critical of skateboarders. As a result I will tell everyone I know to not purchase your product. Or this: I recently saw your most recent 5-hour ENERGY® commercial. At first I was offended because I thought your were being judgmental and critical of skateboarders, but upon reflection I realized that indeed there are slackers in the skateboarding community. I am not a slacker and can therefore not take offense to the humorous portrayal. I also realize that a little ribbing is nothing to get upset about. After all, if the President of the United States can stand up to the unflattering lampoons produced on Saturday Night Live, then I can be a sport, too. Pay attention in English class. The Energy Guy # # # Dear Energy Guy, I noticed a contest to give you a name other than Energy Guy. Is Energy Guy your secret identity? What did your parents call you? Signed, Dear Hung Up, I'm just a vector line drawing with a black fill. I have no parents, although I think it would have been nice to have someone tuck me in and read me stories, make me hot cocoa, kiss my boo boos. But don't feel sorry for me. I have a rich, full life as the Energy Guy. I want nothing more than to maintain this strenuous pose, answer your letters, and accept the name others give me. Mommy! I gotta go now, # # #
