Book Review 225: Exorbitant Privilege
January 22, 2012 - Harry Eagar
EXORBITANT PRIVILEGE: The Rise and Fall of the Dollar and the Future of the International Monetary System, by Barry Eichengreen. 215 pages. Oxford, $27.95.
If you're going to read only one book about the economy this election season, make it Barry Eichengreen's "Exorbitant Privilege." It will make you feel better.
Eichengreen is the go-to guy for economic analysis of monetary policy – Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke cites him as much as any other economist in his academic work. And, despite claims that economics is dismal, Eichengreen is an amusing writer.
"Exorbitant Privilege" is a concentrated dose of common sense on a subject that is the favorite whipping boy of kooks like Ron Paul: fiat money.
The dollar is the world's reserve currency, what we use now that we don't use gold to give credibility to our paper and electronic money. Eichengreen estimates that being the world's reserve currency is worth half a trillion dollars a year to American consumers: The Treasury prints $100 bills for a few cents and foreigners happily accept them in exchange for cars or cocaine.
It's a much better deal than borrowing from the Chinese in exchange for Treasury bills, because we don't have to pay it back. But it is also a source of great resentment, especially but not only from the French, who'd like to get in on this gravy train.
The phrase "exorbitant privilege" was invented during one of France's occasional attempts to restore the franc as a reserve currency.
Merely being the biggest, strongest economy does not guarantee that a nation's currency will become the, or even a reserve currency, with all the benefits that can bring. In fact, the dollar was insignificant as a reserve currency long after its economy became the biggest. The pound, franc and mark were all more important.
World War I, the accumulation of credit America compiled against the Allies and the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 – the thing Paul wants to extinguish – turned the dollar into world money.
The United States is no longer the world's creditor, and there has been much anguish about the possibility that the dollar might be dethroned. When Eichengreen was completing his manuscript early in 2011, it looked as if the euro – currency of a bigger economic totality even than the United States – might be making a bid. Now, it appears the euro may not even survive.
China's renminbei is also probably not a real contender, and the yen never made a showing, for reasons that Eichengreen explains is his characteristic terse but easily understandable style.
The fate of the dollar as a reserve currency, or even as currency, is uncertain. "The fate of the dollar ultimately hinges . . . on U.S. budgetary policy," Eichengreen writes, although his additional analysis will not bring any smiles to Tea Partiers.
Nor will he comfort Republicans who want to unleash Wall Street again. When it comes to the current recession that brought the dollar's fate into sharp focus, Eichengreen writes, "And as for what enabled all involved to act on those (misguided) incentives, the answer is simple: inadequate regulation."

On May 24 Dorchester County deputies were dispatched to Bacons Bridge Road in Summerville on the report of an erratic driver, possibly intoxicated. Dispatch told the responding deputy that there was a truck that had run off the roadway with the driver ejected and lying on the ground.
Arriving on scene a few minutes later, the responding officer observed a pickup truck in the ditch with the driver sitting in the truck.
The driver told the deputy he was okay and not hurt. When the deputy asked the driver what had happened, the driver stated, "God did it."
That "God had grabbed his steering wheel and turned his truck making it run off the roadway and into the ditch."
The officer observed the driver's pupils were dilated and asked if he had been drinking or taking drugs. The driver told the deputy "No, I just smoked a little pot."
While the deputy was directing traffic around the accident scene, the Driver got out of the truck and stumbled to his knees, according to the incident report.
The deputy asked the driver to sit on the tailgate of his truck out of harm's way and went back to directing traffic until the Highway Patrol could arrive to take over the scene.
A few minutes later, the driver tumbled off the tailgate and into the ditch that contained water.
The officer then asked the driver to remain seated on the ground, and the driver informed the office that he was "going to heaven today."
The driver then stood and started walking toward a wooded area, refusing to stop at the officer's request.
The driver informed the deputy "I am going to heaven today and if you try and stop me I will take you with me," the report states.
When the officer took the driver's arm to lead him back to the truck, the driver became aggressive kicking and head butting the deputy. Another deputy assisted and they were eventually able to get the driver under control with handcuffs at which time he was placed under arrest for Driving Under the Influence. The driver was told if he didn't calm down he would also be charged with Resisting Arrest.
The driver continued to yell profanities while his Miranda rights were being explained. He then became enraged and had to be restrained with ankle shackles as well.
Deputies called EMS to respond and the driver was transported for drug and mental evaluation to Summerville Medical Center.
The driver refused to provide urine or blood for testing.
A search of the vehicle uncovered a plastic bag of green, leafy plant material and rolling papers.
The driver, also charged with Possession of Marijuana was transferred to the Dorchester County Jail.

Procedural Checklist Details
You must follow set procedures in completing your thesis or dissertation. These procedures are designed to ensure that the process goes as smoothly as it can for you. You must be aware of this process when beginning your thesis or dissertation in order to plan your time properly. Always work with your committee through each step.
Getting Started
It is never too early to begin planning your thesis or dissertation. You might want to be thinking about your project from the moment that you begin your graduate program. Keep in mind that you must register for thesis or dissertation credit for any semester in which you receive assistance from any member of your committee.
Consult with Major Professor
You should meet with your major professor, who will serve as the chair of your committee, to start the process of getting the committee in place and formalizing your research project.
Develop Tentative Proposal
You should be thinking about your project as soon as you begin your program. As you approach the point in your program where you start your thesis or dissertation, you will develop a tentative proposal prior to a discussion of your project with your major professor. You should have an idea of what you want to do, when you want to do it, where you want to do it, and how you will do it. Doctoral students submit proposal approval forms under the guidance of their major professors (dissertation chairs).
Select Committee
When you and your major professor agree that you have a project that both meets the needs of the degree and is feasible, you should form your committee. Procedures for this vary from program to program. You should have an idea of the committee composition you would feel comfortable with, but you need to discuss this with your major professor. Faculty members are limited in the number of thesis or dissertation committees they can chair and upon which they can serve. Your major professor may be aware of other factors that would make the selection of an individual inappropriate for your project. You need to consult your major professor for this and most other decisions pertaining to your research project.
Make sure that all members of your committee are members of the graduate faculty. Submit signed thesis and dissertation committee appointment forms at least three semesters in advance of your planned graduation date. More details found below.
The Graduate Faculty List shows those with full or temporary status. http://www.valdosta.edu/academics/graduate-school/graduate-faculty-list.php
- A thesis committee must have a minimum of three members, with the major professor and at least one additional professor drawn from the department in which the student is majoring. One member of the committee can be from a department outside the student's area of specialization. All members of the committee must be members of the VSU graduate faculty or be approved by exception by the dean of the Graduate School.
- The dissertation committee will be composed of three to five members and should be named no earlier than the semester in which the Comprehensive Examinations are scheduled to be taken. All of the committee members must be members of the VSU graduate faculty, or have been approved by exception by the dean of the Graduate School. One member must be a member of the faculty in the student's departmental major; this person should serve as the chair of the committee. One member of the committee can be from a department outside the College of Education for SLPD and EDD students, or Arts & Sciences for DPA students, supporting the core courses. One member of the committee can be from a department within the College of Education or Arts & Sciences, but outside the student's department of specialization. For SLPD and EDD students, one member must be a member of the VSU research faculty.
Submit Thesis/Dissertation Committee Form to the Graduate School
Once you have determined the composition of your committee and the individual members have agreed to serve on the committee, you must obtain their signatures on the Thesis Appointment Committee form or the Dissertation Committee Appointment form (consult your doctoral program handbook for forms) and submit that form to the Graduate School, which retains the right of final approval of your committee (remember, all committee members must have graduate faculty status). Please submit the completed form at least three semesters in advance of the semester in which you graduate.
Again, there are different forms for master's theses and doctoral dissertation committees. Doctoral students should use forms from their handbooks and resource pages (see below).
- DPA Forms and Handbook (Includes links to committee appointment and other forms)
- EDD - SLPD Doctoral Program Resources (Includes links to committee appointment and other forms)
Prepare Draft of Proposal
At this point, you will prepare a formal proposal for your committee to approve. Check with your committee chair to determine what style or form to use for the proposal. When submitting your formal proposal and, indeed, when submitting any element of your project, you must make sure that the document is formatted properly, typed, free of grammatical and spelling errors, and well organized. Your committee is there to assist your intellectual growth, and to serve as basic proof readers and assist with editing your work as needed.
The purpose of the proposal is to offer your committee evidence of the significance and rationale of the proposed study, the philosophical or theoretical knowledge base within which the topic is developed, the methodology or procedures to be employed, and the anticipated implications of the findings or conclusions. The proposal is an indication of the student's readiness to conduct the research (Georgia State University, 1989).
Obtain Approval of Proposal
Your committee must approve your proposal prior to your beginning formal work on your project. Committee members may suggest or require that changes be made to your proposal prior to their approval. It is possible that you may get conflicting requirements from different members of your committee. If this happens, it is your responsibility to try to clarify and work out the differences. If this cannot be done, you should go to your committee chair and follow his or her advice. Your chair will serve as a mediator on your behalf with the committee. As part of the proposal process, remember to obtain IRB or IACUC approval for any research that involves human or live animal subjects BEFORE beginning the actual project (see Research Ethics).
Begin Formal Work on Your Project
You are now ready to work with your committee on your project. If you have taken care with each of the steps listed above, your formal work should proceed with relative smoothness.
Working With Your Committee
Your committee's cooperation is essential for the successful completion of your research project, and obtaining that cooperation can at times seem difficult and frustrating. Keep in mind that you are working with a number of busy people, and that your project is just one of many things that they have on their minds. You must give the members of your committee adequate time to read and review your work. Check with the various members of your committee to see if there are any time conflicts of which you need to be aware. Try to plan your own schedule so that you have work to do while your committee is reviewing a given chapter. You might be revising Chapter 1, for example, while your committee is reading Chapter 2. The committee needs to be involved in the review of all completed work. The committee members will establish a procedure that you should follow, and it may vary from person to person. It is your responsibility to determine the role each member of your committee wishes to play and adjust your plans accordingly. Should one or more of your committee members need to be replaced, submit another committee appointment form – mark the box "Change."
In consultation with your committee, the chair will determine when the document is ready to be defended. Before the defense is scheduled, all committee members should have read the document, have had opportunities for input, and should have indicated that the document is ready for final action. Keeping your committee fully engaged in the final revision process will avoid excessive re-writing after the defense. Your committee chair is your key advisor on your project. Work very closely with this individual.
Register for Thesis/Dissertation Credit
You must register for thesis or dissertation credit once any member of your committee actually begins working with you on your research project, and you must be registered for the appropriate credit during any semester in which your committee is providing assistance to you. Your committee will not consider your formal proposal unless you have registered for thesis or dissertation credit. Students must be registered for thesis or dissertation hours the semester they graduate.
Apply for Graduation at Least 2 Semesters in Advance of the Semester of Graduation
Application for Graduation - Print and complete, or pick up packet from the Registrar's Office. Submit completed apps to Registrar's Office.
The Defense
Your committee chair will inform you when the committee members consider your project ready for a defense. The defense should be scheduled around mid-term of the semester in which you expect to graduate. Your committee chair must notify the Graduate School of the date, location, and time of your defense at least 2 weeks in advance (an email will suffice). Notification must include your name, your degree program, the title of your project, and a short description of the project. A copy of your abstract may be included for this purpose. The defense is usually an oral discussion/ presentation of your project and, with some programs, is open to the academic community and invited guests. Doctoral students have particular "Notification of Defense" forms to submit to the Graduate School – consult your program's guide.
Submission of the Thesis or Dissertation
Definition of "approved final draft" of the thesis or dissertation - that which has been defended, corrected, and undergone a final review by the members of your committee and is ready to submit to the Graduate School. Steps to submit include:
- The committee chair must notify the dean of the Graduate School that the student has successfully defended the thesis or dissertation by memo or email.
- One copy of the committee-approved (defended) thesis or dissertation, with a signed signature page must be submitted to the Graduate School not less than 3 weeks prior to the scheduled graduation date for that semester.
- Note: The Graduate School's review can take up to 2 to 3 weeks, possibly longer, depending on the number of theses and dissertations received any given semester. The goal will be to complete the review process as quickly as possible.
- After the Graduate School's review process is complete and the signature page is retrieved, the student will submit a final copy in Word format (include the signed sig page) to the VSU Archives' on-line repository (complete the web V-Text form).
Effective summer 2016, copies of approved theses and dissertations do not have to be bound!
- However, if a student wishes to voluntarily have copies bound, the printed copies of the thesis or dissertation shall be submitted to the Acquisitions Office in Odum Library within 35 days after graduation with the completed library binding fee form.
- http://www.valdosta.edu/academics/graduate-school/documents/library-binding-fee-form1.pdf
- Keep in mind that each official (bound) copy must have an original signature page.
- Print each copy on one sided on regular copying paper (or the same paper used for signature pages).
- Submit extra copies of the signature page for the graduate dean's signature.
- Two bound copies are required for the library. Additional copies may be required by your department or by your committee.

Comments Thread For: CompuBox Historical Review: Peterson-Matthysse
Matthysse throws 12 more power punches per round than Peterson and hits harder. 84% of Matthysse's landed punches were power shots and 80% of Peterson's landed punches were power shots. Peterson landed 46% of his power shots, but does he have the pop to slow the hard-charging Matthysse? Peterson's opponents (Holt, Khan, Cayo, Ortiz,, Bradley) landed 33% of their power shots. Matthysse's opponents (Dallas, Olsugen, Judah, Alexander, Soto) landed 35% of their power punches.. [Click Here To Read More]

Bracing against the continuing onslaught to our airwaves of the 2012 Olympics, I reflected back to 2008. Now, as four years ago, this audio-video abuse will be followed by even greater abuse spewing forth from the Republican and Democratic national conventions.
Thinking back to 2008...After all that trauma to our airwaves had subsided, we learned to say "President Obama." Around that time, I sent the following e-mail to a number of "friends" (real friends—-not the Facebook kind). In retrospect, it seems to still have value so that e-mail is copied below:
Now that the Olympics and prime political silly season are over, I look back on the little bit of the Olympics I did watch. After having the sound on for a while, I discovered that they were much more enjoyable when the tube was on mute. Then came silly season and the second thing I realized is that, relatively speaking, maybe listening to sportscasters isn't so bad.
Dara Torres!! Michael Phelps!! All those divers on the high board who walked to the edge of the board, turned around, then did hand stands and dove launching from their hands! And that underwater video technology!
O.K. So for a while I was into water sports.
China claims it won the Olympics because it had the most gold medals and gold is the only thing that matters, at least to China. The U.S. claims it won because it had the most total medals.
Interestingly neither side, at least that I've heard, acknowledged the traditional way of determining the winner which is not medals but points: 3 for gold, 2 for silver, 1 for bronze.
Under that system, by my quick tally, China won by possibly the closest one-two finish since the modern Olympics began...223 to 220.
The U.S. and the rest of the world should remember China's attitude about gold or nothing...it will follow in the 2010 winter Olympics and more importantly in areas besides sports. We're taught to be "good sports;" that is "It's not whether you win or lose but how you play the game." China echoes what some football coaches have said for years "Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing."
When I was a young boy, I remember asking my mother why her china was so important. She said "It looks good for our guests." Although that intuitively seemed superficial, who was I at that young age to argue. Then came the episode with the young Chinese girls at the Olympics. One little girl who apparently could sing really well presumably had some defect in her looks. I saw one picture, presumably of her, and to me she looked like a normal cute little girl who had a tooth missing like kids that age often do. However in China that missing tooth was thought by the Chinese government to not look good for China's guests and the rest of the world. So a little girl who seemed to look good but apparently sings worse than I do, lip-synched the song. Thanks to modern electronics, the original girl actually did the singing from an undisclosed location. And the decision to perpetrate this illusion of looking good went to the top of the China's politburo. Now I fully appreciate my mother's comment and I know why good dishes usually made in England are called china.

Lakers coach Mike Brown has been suspended by the NBA for Monday's game in Philadelphia, Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski reports via Twitter. Brown was ejected in the Lakers' 96-87 loss to Utah on Saturday after he appeared to bump referee Zach Zarba.
The incident occurred as Brown was protesting a no-call when he felt Pau Gasol was fouled early in the fourth quarter
"I was trying to give our guys some juice," Brown said after the game. "I got two techs, I shouldn't have got the two techs. It put our guys in a deeper hole than we were already in and that probably cost the game. So, I apologized to our guys. I take most of the responsibility for that."
The NBA announced Brown was also fined $25,000.
Asked whether he bumped Zarba, Brown replied "I don't know. I'm just upset about the loss."

Systemic violence and mass shootings
While we mourn the victims of the heinous shootings in Newtown, Conn., it is important to pause for a moment to reflect on what this violence means.
The mailman wonders: Whose history are we taught?
It's funny what you don't learn in school. Funny is the wrong word. Actually it's quite sad.

Grinzane Cavour Castle,
Piemonte (Italy), March 14 (No.2001-41) - A
4-day international roundtable entitled Intangible Cultural Heritage: Working
Definitions opened today in the Castle of Grinzane Cavour near Turin with
the aim of fine-tuning the terminology to be used in promoting the protection of
intangible cultural heritage, possibly through the creation of an international
standard-setting instrument which will be submitted for adoption to UNESCO's
Member States.
The roundtable, bringing
together leading experts of different disciplines and regions, was opened by
UNESCO Director-General Koďchiro Matsuura, who announced that he will proclaim,
on May 18, a first list of intangible cultural heritage drawn from submissions
by nearly 40 countries.
The submissions were made at
the invitation of UNESCO's Programme for the Proclamation of Masterpieces of
the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. The proclamation will be based on
the recommendations of an international jury that will meet from May 14 to 18.
Submissions have revolved around religious events, cultural spaces, languages,
social institutions and musical instruments, the Director-General said.
In his address, Mr Matsuura
stressed that "intangible cultural heritage is gaining increasing recognition
worldwide for the fundamental role it plays in our lives in the maintenance and
enhancement of cultural identity and diversity." He also highlighted
the "ubiquitous nature" of such heritage and stressed that "many of its
expressions such as language, traditional values and know-how are fundamental to
cultural identity and ways of life."
But, he cautioned: "Intangible
heritage worldwide urgently requires increasing protection in order to ensure
its continuity and development. This is largely due to the specific nature of
that heritage, which covers the most fundamental yet vulnerable aspects of
living culture and tradition, most often embodied in the spiritual life,
knowledge, skills and processes of an individual or a community. […] The
trends towards cultural homogenization which we witness in so many facets of
life today can present a threat to the survival of many unique forms of cultural
The Director-General
highlighted UNESCO's role as the only organization within the United Nations
to have a mandate in culture to promote a standard-setting instrument in this
field and said that this would be "the most effective means of encouraging
Member States to engage in urgent actions for the protection of intangible
heritage, as witnessed by the example of the World Heritage Convention."
Mr Matsuura further announced
that he would submit a preliminary study on the advisability of developing an
instrument for the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage at the next
session of UNESCO's Executive Board (May-June 2001). "While it is up to
Member States to decide whether to go on to adopt regulatory instruments at
national level, we must provide a solid basis for their informed consideration
of the issues involved," he said.
UNESCO has been leading
international efforts to gain recognition for the need to protect intangible
heritage for some 20 years. In 1998 it launched its Proclamation of Masterpieces
of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity Programme to draw the attention
of Member States to their intangible cultural heritage. Through this programme,
UNESCO encourages Member States to compile inventories of their intangible
cultural heritage and assists them in establishing safeguarding strategies.
The roundtable discussions
will take place in four specialized sessions. They will notably focus on
terminology, the preliminary study of the advisability of regulating the
protection of traditional culture and folklore through an international
standard-setting instrument, and the identification of values to be safeguarded
through UNESCO. In the closing session, the President of the International
Roundtable, Professor Francesco Francioni, Vice Rector of the University of
Siena, who is a former Chairperson of UNESCO's World Heritage Committee, will
present the conclusions of the roundtable and an action plan for the development
of a strategy and programme on intangible cultural heritage.
During the meeting, UNESCO and
the Italian Grinzane Cavour Foundation which is hosting the roundtable will
conclude an agreement regarding areas of common interest relating to intangible
heritage in which the two wish to continue collaborating.

The loan would finance a system to recycle treated wastewater from the city's wastewater treatment plant, including 35,000 linear feet of 8-inch forcemain to deliver 100,000 gallons per day of treated effluent to the North Star Renewable Energy plant.
Wadley will pay 1.82 percent interest on the 20-year loan. It received a 1 percent interest rate reduction because the project will help conserve water.
The $70 million North Star plant would burn about 133,500 tons of forest products and about 38,500 tons of shredded tires per year to create about 24 megawatts of power.
Other recipients of GEFA grants announced Tuesday were the cities of Ashburn, Cuthbert, Jasper, Jeffersonville and Sylvester.

Letters to the editor: Fracking is too dangerous
I was aghast when I opened the Erie Times-News on July 18 and read your editorial ("Can Erie's economy gain from fracking?").
I had just been to the showing of the film "Triple Divide" (tripledividefilm.org) at the Erie Art Museum the evening before on July 17. This excellent film shows the horrors of fracking that are happening in our own backyard.
I challenge everyone to find out what fracking is doing to our environment on the pretense of producing natural gas so the environment can be saved. Yes, as you wrote in the editorial, it brings jobs to certain companies in the area. And we do need jobs, but at what price? Do we destroy the land, the wildlife, our very precious water supply and human health for a few jobs?
What good will a job be when the Earth is scarred beyond repair, when wildlife is destroyed, when your health is gone, or when your water supply is unusable for generations to come?

Martin gets
no justice
We are often counseled to "do the math!" And so, I did.
1 ill-conceived state law plus
1 self-appointed vigilante plus
a number of jurors inadequate for a murder trial plus
3 jurors without the courage of their convictions
Equals a young life tragically extinguished, plus no consequences for the instigator, plus the conclusion by millions of Americans that their group has unequal protection under the law, plus the conclusion by millions of other Americans that the criminal justice system is unworthy of confidence.
This is the curious arithmetic of Trayvon Martin's sad death.

House wrong
to end debate
Here's a speech that should be delivered by state House Speaker Sam Smith:
"Ladies and gentlemen of the House, I would be remiss if I did not address a recent unfortunate incident that occurred on the floor of this body.
"On the basis that it would offend him as a Christian, the gentleman from Butler County shut off the microphone of an honorable, openly gay member that apparently wished to speak in support of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to recognize limited marriage rights of gay men and women.
"Although this body contains many honorable individuals of the Christian faith, it is not, has never been, and shall never be the Christian General Assembly. It is a General Assembly of and for Christians, Jews, Muslims, those of other faiths and those of no faith.
"We do not make judgments here about who has the right to speak. The fact that one's views could be squelched in the people's House is an embarrassment to me and to all who stand for the principle that even the speech with which we disagree is protected speech that an individual has a right to utter.
"None of us needs to endorse gay marriage or gay unions, and I certainly do not, but we must reinforce the tenet that those of varying views will come to this forum to argue for their principles. The fact that a debate was shut down on the basis of one member's purported religious views is a disgrace, a new low for a House that is rightfully held in contempt by much of the public.
"I ask for unanimous consent that the actions of the gentleman from Butler be condemned."

Early action needed
for long-term care
I feel an article by Dave Ramsey on long-term care presents some misinformation ("Think about long-term care if you're over 60," Erie Times-News, July 9).
While he, as we do, feel that long-term care is a necessary part of any retirement strategy, the fact that he considers 60 the target age for purchasing a policy is a dangerous message. Once you reach 60, you may have health issues that could preclude you from getting coverage, and the cost is higher. Also, the article states that nursing homes cost $50,000 per year, when, in fact, the Pennsylvania average is well over $100,000.
Most policies are comprehensive and include home care, assisted living as well as nursing homes. To say that "you have less than a 1 percent chance of spending time in a nursing home" prior to age 60 disregards the financial burden that is incurred in alternative care facilities or homes.
We have to be proactive in taking care of our own chronic health needs. If you wait too long in protecting your assets, it may be too late. By delaying your coverage, as Ramsey suggests, you are jeopardizing in a short period of time what has taken a lifetime to accumulate.

Hotel labor story
draws criticism
The article titled "Hotels skirt labor laws" (Erie Times-News, July 7) failed to capture the complexities of labor laws that the hotel industry has to deal with.
Lodging establishments are not only large employers, in many cases employing hundreds of individuals, but also complex entities that employ just about every category of employees (i.e., full time, part time, tipped, contracted, salaried, hourly, etc.). As a result, these businesses are subject to almost every labor law written. Not only is it difficult for a business to be 100 percent compliant, but labor laws also are open to interpretation by the National Labor Relations Board and the Department of Labor.
An operator might not realize his or her business is in violation of the law until it is uncovered in an audit, at which point the error is corrected and rarely repeated.
When it comes to understanding the intricate regulations such as those relating to labor compliance, education is key. Educating lodging establishments on the many nuances of labor law will go a long way in helping compliance and curb repeat violations.
Patrick C. Conwaypresident, Pennsylvania

County term
limits opposed
Why are Erie County Executive Barry Grossman and 45 volunteers using their time and energy gathering signatures to put term limits for County Council and county executive on the November election ballot ("3,000 so far support," Erie Times-News, July 12)?
As a woman, more and more choices are taken away from me, and term limits would remove my right to vote for who I choose. If voters do not know that a particular politician should not be re-elected, do not penalize me.
When we vote, term limits are already on the ballot. Use your common sense. If you think someone should not be re-elected, just don't vote for him or her.
Forty-five volunteers! Really? Think what Grossman and those 45 people could do to better spend their time and energy.

Filmax boss faces prison if guilty
A Catalan regional government prosecutor has asked that Filmax chairman Julio Fernandez be sentenced to six years in prison and a fine of E36,000 ($53,000) for alleged fraud committed while Fernandez headed distributor Ivex Films in the early 1990s.
In the first day of hearings, the prosecutor alleged that Fernandez emptied Barcelona-based Ivex's coffers of $69 million before the company filed for Chapter 11 in 1991.
Fernandez denied the charge and argued that all creditors were paid under Chapter 11 arrangements.
He said at the trial, which started Tuesday, that he had had no contact with the claimants who have brought the case against him.
Filmax sources declined to comment on the trial, which was set to finish Thursday.
A judge will decide sentence within one or two months.

President Obama has a birthday coming up on Aug. 4, but how old will he be?
Obama's official biography says that he was born in 1961 in Hawaii (see photo of birth certificate here), yet at the time this report was filed, his official MySpace page says he is 52.
Punditty isn't the most mathematical savvy wordmonger, but he did pass all his arithmetic classes. Let's see, 2010 minus 1961 equals 49. So if Obama's Hawaiian birth certificate is correct, Obama will be 49 in about two weeks
Then why does Obama's official MySpace page have him listed as 52?
We all know the president has much more important things to do than check in on MySpace (although he would probably like some of the songs on Punditty's playlists), but one would think someone employed on the taxpayer dime would fix it to reflect his actual age.
If this Punditty Project report can actually result in someone fixing the age on Obama's official MySpace page, then we can all be sure that the age of Citizen Journalism has truly arrived.
Punditty isn't sure what to make of a second Obama MySpace page, but even though it does have the president's correct age, the biographical information was written before he was elected president.
Stay tuned for follow-up reports as events warrant.
Let's be MySpace friends, Mr. President - click here! Heck, you can even follow Punditty on Twitter if you want.

The A.S. Recycle Center is an on-campus recycling service with an almost all-student staff. We gather recyclables from approximately 650 barrels in the academic buildings and the residence halls, and then sort their contents by hand. We operate mainly as a collection and redistribution entity with the goal of elimnating contaminant sources in the university's recycle stream before the materials go to Northwest Recycling, Whatcom County's recycling business. Because Western's students and staff come here with different levels and kinds of recycling knowledge, our Education Coordinator works to bring a basic knowledge of recycling practices to all members of WWU's community and further reduce the amount of recycleables that go into landfills.
The mission of the A.S. Recycle Center is to provide the opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to recycle on campus, to educate the University community on the recycling process at Western, and to continually increase our collection efforts in order to reduce Western's waste stream. In addition to this, we provide student employment opportunities and work experience, specifically in recycling and waste management.

Julian King, the 7-year-old nephew of Jennifer Hudson, died of multiple gunshot wounds and his death has been ruled a homicide, the Cook County Medical Examiner's office said Tuesday.
"We're not releasing anything else," said ME spokesman Sean Howard. "We possibly have a criminal out there and we have to maintain discretion."
King, the son of Hudson's sister, Julia, was found dead in the back seat of a white SUV vehicle on Chicago's South Side Monday. Three days earlier, the singer's mother, Darnell Donerson, and brother, Jason Hudson, were found fatally shot in their home.
King had been missing since the killings and police had sent out an Amber Alert for the boy.
William Balfour, 27, who is King's stepfather and Julia's estranged husband, remains in custody on a parole violation. Police called him a "person of interest" in the slayings of Donerson and Hudson, but he has not been charged with any crimes.
When asked if Balfour is a person of interest in King's death as well as in the slaying of his grandmother and uncle, Monique Bond, spokesman for the Chicago Police Department, told PEOPLE: "It's all one investigation."
Bond added: "Our investigation continues. He is still considered a person of interest in the investigation."

UNIVERSITY PARK - As night fell over Beaver Stadium and Penn State's ugly performance cued the quietest dispersal ever of 110,033, Daryll Clark was taking responsibility for the Nittany Lions' 24-7 loss to Ohio State that thoroughly ruined a gorgeous November Saturday.
"We're better than that," he said quietly. "I could have played 10 times better."
Credit Clark for his honesty, but his teammates - and coaches - contributed just as much as he did.
Article Photos
The special teams were so bad that an early 41-yard Ohio State punt return had the Buckeyes at the Lions' 9 before everybody was in their seats.
And if you're looking for a statistic to include on a note with your next Nittany Lion Club contribution about why this coaching staff needs a designated special teams coordinator - instead of dividing up all the duties, as Joe Paterno stubbornly continues to do - how about Ohio State's 130-0 advantage in punt-return yardage?
"I said prior to the game, I was worried about the kicking game," Paterno said.
But placing all the blame on special teams wouldn't be fair, either.
After all, the Lion offensive line failed to give Clark much time and created no running room. Clark averaged less than 5 yards per passing attempt, and Penn State's longest running play from scrimmage, on 30 tries, was 9 yards.
So stingy was the Buckeyes' defense that the Lions' lone TD, a 1-yard, fourth-down plunge by Clark that tied the game at 7-7 and ended PSU's scoring, had to be reviewed and was debatably granted.
"We weren't very smooth out there," Paterno said. "Ohio State was more aggressive around the football."
When he did have time, Clark seemed terribly rushed and lacked the touch he's displayed most of the year.
The combination of 10 punts and three second-half first downs (one by penalty) eventually wore down a defense which didn't play its best game, either.
"I thought we were okay at 10-7," defensive coordinator Tom Bradley said. "We can't give up the big play, and we did."
After missing a wide-open receiver deep in the second quarter, Terrelle Pryor redeemed himself with a 62-yard touchdown late in the third quarter that gave Ohio State a 17-7 lead. That pretty much put the game away because it looked like Penn State could play all night - maybe into next week - against the Buckeye defense and not score 17.
"Our defense fought hard," Clark said. "We weren't able to make enough plays to help them."
The defense contributed its share, too. It allowed Pryor to find a comfort zone that he impressively exploited with a side-to-side cool that enabled him to collect 175 yards of total offense and three touchdowns.
Just as the Buckeye coaching staff put Pryor in position to succeed, it confused Clark and held the Lions to less than two touchdowns for the seventh time in the last 12 meetings.
"We thought we had a very good game plan," Clark said. "They did a very good job disrupting it. We were a little bit in disarray the whole game. Their defense was coached really well, and a lot of things we expected to be open weren't."
So blame the coaches, too. They did nothing to slow down the Ohio State rush or rattle a Buckeye quarterback who arrived here still searching to find himself.
On the flip side, Clark may be 19-4 as a starter, but he fell to 1-3 against Iowa and Ohio State - and he knows Saturday's result will add a black mark to an otherwise admirable PSU resume.
"The numbers will show I wasn't able to win the big game," he said, "and that will hang over my head unless we can finish the season the right way. I'm very comfortable that myself and all the leaders of this football team, as painful as it is, we'll continue to move on. We still have a lot to play for."
Just not nearly as much as they were playing for Saturday.

Minibus leasing made simple™ - the clever way to lease a new minibus.
Whether you are running a small transport business, or simply have a large family, financing a minibus rather than buying it can have many positive aspects. With different types of leasing and numerous trustworthy finance providing partners, Car leasing made simple™ is the leading UK brand in long term vehicle rental. Our wide spectrum of operation, represented in brand names driven by the type of vehicle financing, allows us to secure high discounts from both manufacturers and dealerships. This means we can offer you great deals on anything from cars, vans, trucks and - of course - minibuses.
Aside from cost efficiency, another major minibus finance advantage is your free choice of lease term. Usually expressed in months, the three typical lengths of contracts are 24, 36 and 48 month leases. These in turn dictate the monthly payments - the longer the contract, the cheaper the "rental" payments become.
There are some oddball lease terms, like 30, 39, and 42 months, that most people looking to lease are not aware of. These usually occur when the original lease term is not over, but for some reason the lessee wants to end the lease contract earlier or requests its extension. For a lessee who is not sure about the best lease term to take, a good conversation with one of our knowledgeable Customer Support team members should give some clarification. Contact us today on 0800 458 0113 and we will be happy to explain our best leasing options.

Alcott Caps Comeback By Making Olympic Team
CORTINA D'AMPEZZO, Italy (AP) ? Nobody bothered to call Chemmy Alcott and let her officially know that she was named to Britain's Olympic team for the Sochi Games.
And that's just fine for the London-based skier who is returning from her third major leg injury.
She tells The Associated Press after downhill training that she "saw in the press this morning that I was going. No one contacted me yet. ... That's probably a good thing. Because I've got a lot to focus on. That was just my second downhill run since July."
Alcott broke her right leg for the third time during preseason training and only started competing again this month.
After four surgeries, she has a 15-inch nail holding the bones together inside her leg.

Hey guys ,I was wondering if someone could help me with hard math problems for 6th graders? I have a major assignment to complete in a couple of months and for that I need a good understanding of problem solving in topics such as factoring polynomials, long division and side-side-side similarity. I can't start my project until I have a clear understanding of hard math problems for 6th graders since most of the calculations involved will be directly related to it in some form or the other. I have a problem set, which if someone can help me solve, would help me a lot.

Shipping meat
Shooting Activities and Venues
> Shipping meat
November 9, 2010, 12:54 AM
How much does it cost? Special regulations? I was thinking the way to go would be (in the winter) to ship it in a regular box, two day air, with dry ice.

Shipping is generally by weight and size, right? Not to mention distance and alacrity.
So what are you shooting at?
November 9, 2010, 02:13 PM
Basically, by weight.
Is it fresh or frozen? I assume its meat you just killed.
This summer - on one of the hotter days of the year - I had a friend send me 30 lbs of CAB sirloin, ribeye, triptip and porterhouse. Put it in a styrafoam box and packed it tight. Sent it 2nd day UPS and I missed the delivery. Ended up picking it up at the UPS depot 50 hours after it was shipped and most of the meat was still frozen solid, with the stuff on the outside cold but thawing.
Not a problem.
I would suspect if you were shipping freshly killed game back it would be wise to pack with dry ice (though check with the shipper - at least airlines out of SD these days won't let you ship pheasant with dry ice as the CO2 can kill the dogs in the back of the plane). Last year I packed a cool with 15 pheasants, with a layer of ice on the bottom and layers of ice between each layer of pheasant. Filled it tightly, then covered the top with a towel and duct taped it up. Shipped it via cargo on the plane it it came through fine.
November 9, 2010, 04:59 PM
As others have said it depends. I tried shipping a box of frozen meat on dry ice to my dad in Colorado. $80!!! We will have to wait til he visits so he can take it home.
