Product Description
"Before Literary Theory, there had been no textbooks for English. There had been guides to particular authors, and even periods, but no single one book that could claim to be "essential reading"... Eagleton's book-which clearly understands the discipline and institutions of English-offered this." ( Times Literary Supplement , April 2009) "This book shaped the reception of theory in Britain for a generation." ( Times Higher Education Supplement) Praise for the First Edition of Literary Theory " Literary Theory has the kind of racy readability that one associates more often with English critics who have set their faces resolutely against theory ... It's not just a brilliant polemical essay, it's also a remarkable feat of condensation, explication, and synthesis ... Stimulating and entertaining." (Sunday Times) "This concise and lucid volume offers a satisfying survey of all the major theories, from structuralism in the 1960s to deconstruction today, that have made academic criticism both intriguing and off-putting to the outsider." (New York Times Book Review) "A polemical, amusing and very informative introduction ... indispensable." (Jonathan Culler) "The best handbook to those arcane ics and isms, both for academy members and for any civilians who, having heard the distant roar of professorial cannons, might wonder what the skirmishing is about." (Voice Literary Supplement) --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

When the professor discussed literary works such as Hemingway's A Clean Well Lighted Place, Oneill's The Hairy Ape, or Shakespeare's Othello, I was mystified. I understood what he said, but I had no idea where it came from. A friend, whose low-level of educational attainment matched mine, called it "reading between the lines."
However one characterized the source of the professor's insights, I couldn't see how he did it, nor could I understand the imagery in the poems we read, or see the humor in Andrew Marvell's reference to "vegetable love" in To His Coy Mistress. I was in trouble.
If the first edition of Terry Eagleton's book Literary Theory had been published twenty years earlier, I might have read and understood it (a real long shot!) and learned that the professor was a Leavasite. Nothing insidious about that. It just means that, during a time that the professor himself termed a post-Christian era, he was a proponent of the view that literature was the last refuge of truth, beauty, and the pastoral values that provide sustenance to the soul rather than carefully counted coins to the purse.
Beyond that, followers of F.R. Leavis were committed to close reading of the text itself without reference to contextual factors or the biography of the author. Literary works of real quality and lasting value were seen as organic wholes, standing alone, meant to be read in ways that demonstrated their internal coherence and completeness. Literature at its best aimed at a visceral emotional response that made it moving and memorable.
However, when structuralism was introduced as a new kind of literary theory, the close reading of Leavis and like-minded students of English literature, was found by some to be wanting. Structuralists were committed to a search for deeply embedded formal organizing principles that could be used to explain why any work of literature took a specific form.
Structuralists, notably Claude Levi-Strauss and Roland Barthes, took the view that the form of what we wrote, the shape of what we built, how we organized our social lives were controlled by deep structures intrinsic to our central nervous system and thus inescapable. Structures could be reckoned in terms of binary opposites such as hot/cold, raw/cooked, light/dark and so on. These may seem unduly simple terms with which to understand the formal properties of any social creation, but sophisticated analyses have been done of objects of all kinds, from Shakespeare's history plays to pulp fiction to kinship systems.
Following the great French linguist Ferdinand de Saussure, structuralists viewed the connection between a thing and its name as completely arbitrary, a product of historical habit and cultural convention. Thus a dog was called a dog because we had gotten accustomed to it not being called something else, say dressing gown or sandwich. There was no inherent parallel between the signifier dog and the thing to which it referred, the signified.
Structuralism's prominence was short-lived, perhaps because of it's sterile formalism. Once you've completed a structural analysis, where does that leave us? What's next? All you've really done is again verified that an analysis in terms of binary opposites can be accomplished, but have you learned anything of value? An open question about another de-contextualized and tightly closed system.
Furthermore, a subsequent development, post-structuralism, cast doubt on the solidity and permanence of the binary oppositions and organized wholes that structuralilsts found so novel and intriguing. Post-structuralists such as Jacques Derrida concluded that the signifiers used to constitute binary opposites were not only arbitrary but bore an unstable relationship to their signifieds. A signifier like "cold," for example, could refer to the ambient temperature in an air conditioned office, the impersonal tone of a bureacrat's communication, a viral infection common during the winter, an evaluation of a response in the game charades, the distinctive and unforgettable feel of a dead animal when you touch it to determine its condition, and so on. Depending on the linguistic context made up of modifiers, associated nouns, and its history of usage, any signifier has perhaps an infinite variety of signifieds.
In the absence of fixed definitions, the relationships between signifiers and signifieds become mutable and uncertain. Even the simplest signifiers are never pure, but bound up with ways that we and others have used them and will use them, rendering the meaning of all signifiers problematic. Not exactly a death knell for structuralism, but it rests on much shakier ground.
And the same is true for the close reading in search of emotionally charged organic wholes championed by Leavisites. The post-structuralist positon regarding the slippery instability of signifiers implies that we can never write exactly what we mean, and that we never mean exactly what we write. Under these unsteady conditions, just what is a close reading and how stable is an organic whole?
The Leavasites, structuralists, and post-structuralists represent just three of the literary theories ably discussed by Terry Eagleton in Literary Theory. The others -- semiotics, phenomenology, hermeneutics, reception theory, and psychoanalysis -- are all interpretably rendered by the author, and each is interesting, especially psychoanalysis. None of this, however, is light reading, but Eagleton introduces truly novel and unfamiliar ideas in an understandable way. It helps, however, if you don't take the names of authors too seriously as things to be learned. Eagleton invokes a lot of names, and many are only peripheral to his discussion and would best have been deleted. Perhaps he wants to display his erudition.
Literary theories fall in and out of favor. I remember when the New York Times Book Review treated publication of an English translation of Levi-Strauss' structuralist volume The Raw and the Cooked as a sensational development that would change the way we understood the world. It didn't, but like other literary and cultural theories it left a residue. Structuralism is still taught in college and university courses that hope to develop the history of their discipline and show how literary theory has broadened into cultural studies, activities that treat everything, in some significant sense, as text to be interpreted and understood using tools once artificially reserved for literature.
Eagleton's understanding of all this is inextricably bound to his commitment to the idea that literary theory, and more to the point, cultural studies, should not be construed as fundamentally useless ends in themselves. If they remain independent of their social context including power relations, class structure, and vast differences in life chances that occasioned their production, they are difficult to defend.
Eagleton is a long-time socialist, so his understanding of the proper role of cultural studies is to contribute to the creation of a world in which asymmetrical relations of domination and exploitation are overcome. He envisions what some would regard as an earthly utopia, where class, race, gender, and other invidious distinctions are erased, and everyone really is able to develop his full potential as a multi-talented human being, avoiding the disfiguring and destructive social roles intrinsic to global capitalism. Eagelton is quite serious when he argues that this is the only rationale for the continued existence of cultural studies.
Even for one with sharply different political views, however, Eagleton's fundamental thesis has merit. If cultural studies restrict themselves to the construction of closed systems, immune to and uninterested in contextual factors, what is their value? This question could be raised with good reason by a conservative as well as a socialist. After all, in contrast to Eagleton, many literary theorists are conservatives. It's the sterility of their enterprise that is objectionable, yet another reason why conservatives tend to be dismissive of academics.
So could Eagleton's book have helped me when I was a clueless college freshman doing poorly in English composition? Not a chance. I wouldn't have understood as word of it. Now that I've been around for quite awhile, however, it strikes me as the best available introduction to literary theory.
At first, it was impossible for me to navigate Eagleton's book; it was a horror for two reasons: I knew nothing about the historicity of the philosophers, their theories or the movements that sprung up around these new ideas or the social conditions that fostered them. Every name: Husserl, Kant, Heidegger, Leavis (other than seeing his name as editor of a particular Penguin book I was reading), Hirsch, Hegel, Bakhtin, Gadamer, Fish, Barthes, et al.), every theory: phenomenology, reception, semiotics, structuralism and post-structuralism and every movement: essentialism, modernism, formalism, irrationalism, relativism, etc. was foreign to me, an unknown; every other word touched on something I knew very little about and understood less.
Secondly, Eagleton's breezy style was extremely difficult for me to decipher; his book was more like listening to a lecture than reading an introductory book. He loves to add -ness to the ends of words, like "bound-up-ness" or "shoeness" when discussing Van Gogh's ability to really paint the true quality of a shoe or "givenness" when explaining Heidegger's theory of the absolute, unequivocal "giveness" of the existence of humankind. He also throws out statements that are likewise unequivocal and unexplained despite the complexity of the issue he is propounding upon. For example, in discussing the failure of Heidegger to transcend the flaws of Husserl's phenomenological theory, he also mentions Heidegger's attraction and support of Hitler and his Fascist regime, and states: "Fascism is a desperate, last-ditch attempt on the part of monopoly capitalism to abolish contradictions which have become intolerable; and does so in part by offering a whole alternative history..." (57). It's a fascinating sentence, but Eagleton doesn't clarify or extend his one-phrase summation, so it seems a bit off the point and frustrated me not to know more about what he meant and how it applied to Heidegger's theories.
However, I determined to look up every word or concept I didn't understand and although it took me the whole summer to get through the book, light began to dawn. It was a struggle with both Eagleton's style and content, but I got through it and actually began to enjoy learning about theory. I now am quite attracted to the field of literary criticism and enjoy reading about it much more, although post-modernism is still a bugaboo. Lacan is now my new hurdle, but hopefully not for long; I find him (or those that write about him) fascinating. After battling with this subject, my advice would be: if you know anything about the field of literary and cultural theory, then Eagleton's book is probably a breeze, but if you are completely new to the discipline like me, I would choose a more traditionally organised and more plain-spoken introduction to literary theory. I would like to find one or actually many more books myself, because I find the field is so dense that a substantial amount was understandably missing in Eagleton's book- no one book could cover it all- and one could and should read considerably more on the subject.
If however, you choose to take a chance with Eagleton, because you like his style or feel up to wrestling with the man on this topic, then I think you might probably feel proud of yourself for having met the challenge and persevering. I certainly did.
I will, however, say that this "introduction" has proved more useful to me as a novice (or dilettante) than other introductions I have encountered. While others (namely Rivkin's and Ryan's Literary Anthology: An Introduction) may be more contemporary and comprehensive, this work exposes the underpinnings of each discipline briefly, yet without sacrificing the depth, profundity, and critical eye needed upon entering this polemical field. Never prolix nor overly tortuous, Eagleton's Literary Theory is an essential, insightful work that should be read several times by any and all that take "literature" seriously, no matter what that might mean to them.
Some have accused Eagleton of being too overtly Marxist. I would argue that such a position misses the point. It's true that he often has a Marxist slant; several of his books and essays make this obvious (read Why Marx Was Right). It is also true that many of his arguments in this book are, to an extent, centered on economic inequalities and class divisions. Throughout the book, he implies numerous times that classical literary theory and many of its successors have made literature and the study thereof exclusive to a social, intellectual elite. Does suggesting that the trajectory of literature and literary study has had something to do with reinforcing the conditions of our current political and social circumstances (i.e. classicism, sexism, social exclusivity, etc.) make them a Marxist? Maybe. But the question is, is that wrong? In any case, while the author does offer a critique of these theories, often providing sound reason for doing so, this certainly doesn't make this book any less of a fair introduction. Those that do not want to taint to their perception of "literature" as an escape from social and political issues by which it is influenced, for those who do not want to give up the pleasure of reading passively, would do well to stay away from this work. To those that want to have the knowledge and gain the critical perspective needed to survive in the ongoing literary debate: read this book.
My only real complaint about this book is that it is now thirty years old (I've only read the 1982 edition so cannot comment on the revised anniversary edition). Unless you want to spend a great deal of energy and time, one might do well to familiarize themselves with the various theories before reading this book, perhaps even reading a more basic introduction first. So, grab a pen, a notebook, and a dictionary when your ready. Terry Eagleton's Literary Theory: An Introduction is not a work to be read lightly.

An autopsy conducted by the Medical Examiner's Office has determined that the newborn found dead on Sunday afternoon was a stillbirth.
Detectives have determined that the 21-year-old woman who was taken to the hospital from the residence where the body was found was the baby's mother.
The woman's name was not released. She remains in the hospital receiving medical and mental health treatment.
Detectives are continuing to investigate the circumstances of this incident and will present their investigation to the Multnomah County District Attorney's Office upon completion.
According to police, at 11:28 a.m. on Feb. 21, East Precinct officers responded to a residence in the 13800 block of Southeast Stark Street after receiving a report that a deceased newborn was located inside.
Officers and medical personnel arrived and confirmed the newborn was deceased. Officers learned that a woman was previously transported to the hospital from the residence earlier in the day.
Based on a preliminary investigation, detectives assigned to Homicide Division and the Child Abuse Team responded to conduct a death investigation, along with the Medical Examiner and criminalists from the Forensic Evidence Division.
Police say there is no public safety risk associated with this investigation and no further information will be released at this time.

Monroe County
Missouri, USA
Bruce J. Hooper, 78 of Monroe City, and formerly of Chula Vista and Jamul, CA, passed away at home on Saturday, January 14, 2012 after a brief illness. He was born November 3, 1933 in Chula Vista, CA, the twin son of Albert F. and Leona (Berlinger) Hooper. Bruce attended the Chula Vista schools, graduating from the Chula Vista High School in 1951. He was a member of the Congregational Church there, prior to moving his membership to the First Baptist Church in Monroe City in early 2011. He was a veteran of the United States Army and was stationed in Germany in 1953 and 1954. Bruce loved talking with people and was an avid hunter and fisherman throughout his life. In most recent years, he treasured spending time at his farms, watching the wildlife, driving the tractor, fishing the pond, or helping a neighbor. A week after high school graduation, Bruce was employed at Rohr Industries in Chula Vista. He enjoyed a 38-year career in the aerospace industry, with 30 of those years in management. Upon retiring in 1989, he built a retirement home on his ranch in Jamul, CA. In 2003, he and his wife, Linda, came to Missouri in search of a vacation home near the Mark Twain Lake. After a short period of time, they fell in love with the people and the pace of Monroe City and made it their full-time residence. Bruce is survived by his loving wife, Linda Hooper, of Monroe City, MO; four children, Kimberly (Mark) Appleget of Chula Vista, CA, Mike Hooper of Bakersfield, CA, Keith (Shirley) Hooper of Santee, CA and Kent (Allison) Hooper of Spring Valley, CA; five step-children, R.J. (Shannun Lamorte) Lewis III of Virginia Beach, VA, Kimberly (Jason) Schauwecker and Courtney Lewis, of Chicago, IL, Kelley (Adam) Broderick and Ryan Lewis, of Indianapolis, IN; and two very special adopted Missouri kids, Kale and Gretchen OBryan of Monroe City. Also surviving are nine grandchildren, one step-grandson and one expected Feb. 22, four great-grandsons, and numerous other relatives. Bruce was preceded in death by his first wife of over 40 years, Jean Dungan Hooper; his parents and grandparents; brothers, Albert F. Hooper, Jr. and Barry Mark Hooper (his identical twin); and a beloved nephew, Mark Hooper, all of California. Memorial services will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 17, at the Yager-Kendrick Funeral Home in Monroe City, with Dr. Milton Baumgardner officiating. Visitation is from 1 p.m. until service time Tuesday at the funeral home. A private scattering of ashes will take place at a later date. Memorials have been suggested to the Monroe City Nutrition Center, the First Baptist Church of Monroe City, or the American Cancer Society. They all may be sent in care of Yager-Kendrick Funeral Home, 545 Stoddard St, Monroe City, MO 63456.

13:10, There is a difference between not being capable to support them alone (and thus letting them live with other parts of the family) and completely disacknowledging them. I don't think the latter is more common in Japan with any significance. What kind of experience are you speaking from? Have you worked in Japan? Did you get insight into family affairs of female Japanese coworkers or female Japanese singles with children?

I'm surprised noone made comment to the fact that the Golden Retriever wanted to get all frisky with Shinka. I.E. he thinks she's one hot sexy 'bitch'. (I like Shinka BTW, i just thought it was funny) Kyoani does Fanservice the smart way. No need for silly dumb boob grabs and pantsu shots. Just a small tiny mole at the top of a sleeping girls cleavage. Much more subtle and erotic than forced pantsu poses. Rikka's little black dress and Kumin's summer outfit were also drool inducing.
- Chuunibyou Sexy Beach Episode:
It IS, statistically, far more common in Eastern families. Its not because Japanese women are assholes. Its because many of them are not socially capable of supporting a family. Citation needed. But I speak mostly from experience. Women in the workforce is a very modern thing, quite exclusive to the western world.

Petroleo Brasileiro Petrobras SA (PBR): Best Stocks to Buy for the Coming South American Oil Boom
By THE MOTLEY FOOL in News

Page 1 of 2Next See All
"Recent oil discoveries in South America have put that continent on the map for investors looking to profit from the development of these resources. While there are many companies that will be operating in the region over the years, these five are among the first movers. That makes these stocks the five best to play this coming oil production boom.
Offshore Brazil
It's well known that Brazil is blessed with massive oil reserves. The discovery of the pre-salt reserves has added nearly 100 billion barrels of oil equivalent reserves to Brazil's total estimated reserves. The problem for investors is that the country is keeping those reserves for itself.
That makes Petroleo Brasileiro Petrobras SA (ADR) (NYSE:PBR) one of the best pure-play stocks to buy if you want to invest in the growth of oil production. The company is investing heavily to explore and develop these massive oil fields with a goal to produce 1 million barrels of oil per day by 2016. But it's not the only company operating offshore: Seadrill Ltd (NYSE:SDRL) is another potential stock play here. One of the interesting things it's doing is looking at spinning off part its Brazilian business. This will help the company navigate the country's regulations while retaining upside as offshore oil production grows. It will also help the company to continue producing income to keep its top-tier dividend flowing back to investors."

On Relocation of Hopping Sensors for Balanced Migration Distribution of Sensors

When some sensors in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) fail or become energy-exhausted, redundant mobile sensors might be moved to cover the sensing holes created by the failed sensors. Within rugged terrains where wheeled sensors are unsuitable, other types of mobile sensors, such as hopping sensors, are needed. In this paper, we address the problem of relocating hopping sensors to the detected sensing holes. The recently studied tendency for this problem considered the shortest path to relocate the sensors; however, even when multiple suppliers are considered, the previous works merely use the shortest path algorithm repeatedly. As a result, the migration distribution is imbalanced, since specific clusters on the obtained paths could be used repeatedly. In this paper, we first analyze the impact of using multiple suppliers to relocate the hopping sensors, and propose a Relocation Algorithm using the Most Disjointed Paths (RAMDiP). Simulation results show that the proposed RAMDiP guarantees a balanced movement of hopping sensors and higher movement success ratio of requested sensors than those of the representative relocation scheme, MinHopExt.

PalliAGEDnurse app has arrived
The palliAGEDnurse app was released today to coincide with International Nurses Day! palliAGEDnurse is designed to support nurses caring for older Australian approaching the end of their life. The app's content is based on materials developed for aged care workshops and learning modules within the Decision Assist Program. While education is important, nurses also need to be able to access knowledge when it is needed, and the app provides them with information where they are providing care - in someone's home, in a residential aged care facility or at a general practice clinic. The app has an online-offline capacity and being web-based, it can be updated as new evidence and resources are released. The app was developed by the GATI staff from the CareSearch Project Team as part of Decision Assist Program.

Bjørn Fongaard
Bjørn Fongaard (1919 in Oslo – 1980 in Oslo) was a Norwegian composer, guitarist, and teacher. In addition to being concerned with microtonal and electronic music, he was perhaps the first to use the prepared guitar. "Fongaard's output is considerable...Due to the partly experimental notation, these works have not become widely known."[1]
He studied at the Oslo Conservatory of Music with teachers including Per Steenberg, Sigurd Islandsmoen, Bjarne Brustad, and Karl Andersen.[1] He started off by constructing a quarter tone guitar with adaption of the fretboard, but very early left this in favor of a diverse set of prepared guitar techniques. His first pieces in this genre came in the mid 60's. A sampler CD of his own recordings entitled Elektrofoni: Works For Micro Intervallic Guitar 1965-1978 [2] was released in 2011. In 2015, a double disc of new recordings by Norwegian guitarist Anders Førisdal was released on Aurora Records.

Men found guilty in teen's beating death
DOUGLAS COUNTY, Ga. - Two men charged with beating a teen to death in Douglas County have been found guilty.
Prosecutors used dashcam video from the night of the killing to slam one of the defendants during closing arguments Thursday. Suspect Quantez Mallory told investigators he was coming from down a hill when the attack happened, but prosecutors said that wasn't the case.
Prosecutor Brian Fortner showed a video of a man near a car that night and said, "He comes running out the side and tries to walk casually as the officer passes."
Defense attorneys brought in a string of witnesses who said they didn't see Tillman hit by Mallory or his co-defendant, Horace Coleman.
"Witness after witness came in here and exonerated Quantez Mallory," Mallory's attorney Michael Pryor said. "Doesn't that cause you to waver a little bit?"
But Fortner countered, "It's not exoneration when you say you didn't see them when you clearly didn't see the whole fight."
Mallory and Coleman are set for sentencing Feb. 4.

Tip of the Day
Showing Duplicate Items in iTunes 11
iTunes has long offered a basic feature for identifying duplicate tracks, however when iTunes 11 was initially released, many users were surprised to find the feature had gone missing. Regardless of whether this was intentional or an oversight on Apple's part, it quickly returned the feature in an update to iTunes 11.0.1. If you're missing the Show Duplicates feature, be sure you've upgraded to the latest version of iTunes, and then take a look on the View menu. The feature itself works in much the same way as in prior iTunes versions, filtering your list view down to only suspected duplicate tracks and then letting you deal with this information as you see fit. Keep in mind that for music tracks, however, this is based only on the track name and artist, so if you're a collector who wants to keep multiple, complete albums you may find that you always have duplicates in your library as far as iTunes is concerned. When viewing duplicates, a status bar appears at the bottom of the iTunes window to remind you that you are in this mode, along with a "Display all" button that can be used to return to the full track view.

The Find Duplicates feature doesn't work all that well in iTunes 11. It lists songs that share a similar word string and not exact duplicates of song title. I miss iTunes 10.
Posted by Gary in Toronto on December 20, 2012 at 1:13 PM (CST)
Don't forget the "Show Exact Duplicates" alternative by holding the Shift key first (Windows). This adds Album name and Track # to the comparison.
But the iTunes 11 version has an odd quirk, along with iCloud, in that it seems to report old DRM-protected iTunes purchases in your library as duplicates of the same songs in iCloud, even though they've been downloaded locally. One has to delete these songs and re-download them to clear the bogus duplicates.
Note: The re-downloaded copies are still 128kbps AAC.

I used a separate utility called copy tran Tune Tastic for cleaning up itunes duplicates. worked fine, I'd say better than the itunes duplicate finder.
I was not enchanted by the duplicate-feature available in previous versions of itunes, since iTunes would spit up all the tracks in one place - regardless if they are the duplicate or the actual original. In addition, I couldn't by any means, tell apart which track is which. Hence, going for a third-party tool which does this job.
Posted by Zdravko in Toronto on December 21, 2012 at 1:56 PM (CST)
"One has to delete these songs and re-download them to clear the bogus duplicates."
As a follow-up to my statement above, these bogus duplicates can be hidden by going into iTunes preferences (Store tab) and de-select "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" (which is not the same as "View/Hide Music in the Cloud").
Posted by rockmyplimsoul in Toronto on January 3, 2013 at 3:07 PM (CST)
Good to see the new feature of iTunes that is newly launched by Apple. However, I heard from many of my friends and colleagues that this feature functions only for music files i.e. it will display only duplicate music files. Looking to this, many users like to stay with the existing version i.e. iTunes as users are expecting something more than this and something new compared to present one. For instance, with regard to this feature of duplicates iTunes 11 should function for music, videos, apps, games and much more.
Posted by SPINX INC. in Toronto on February 20, 2013 at 5:32 AM (CST)
@SPINX (#5): Actually, the Show Duplicates option does work for some of the other categories, but the trick is that you have to have the Show list views for all media option enabled in your iTunes Preferences, otherwise there simply isn't a view available for it to appear, and the option will be greyed out when viewing anything other than Music.
Note that even in this case, it's still only available in the Movies, TV Shows and Books categories, not in Podcasts, Tunes U, Apps or Tones.
See Show Duplicates only available for Music for more information.

Nicotine replacement therapies (NRT) are an effective treatment for tobacco dependence, yet most smokers do not quit or remain abstinent. We investigated whether Swedish snus (snuff) use was associated with smoking cessation among males participating in a large population based twin study in Sweden. Snus use was associated with smoking cessation but not initiation. Given that snus delivers comparable nicotine concentrations but carries lesser cancer risk than cigarettes, snus may be a widely used, non-medical form of NRT. Evaluation of the efficacy of snus for smoking cessation should be evaluated in randomised clinical trials.

David RouseSome will argue that employee litigation--even the threat or fear of such litigation--has created an atmosphere in the workplace that stifles productivity and cooperation. Sack, a practicing labor attorney who has written 12 other books, provides this guide, which attempts to help companies of all sizes avoid legal fees and settlements, as well as those who simply want to do the "right thing." He covers prehiring concerns, ranging from immigration checks to reference checks, the hiring process, negotiation benefits, protecting the company from dishonest employees, employee privacy issues, discipline, policies and procedures, discrimination, firing and termination, and post-termination points like exit interviews, severance, and unemployment hearings. Clearly targeting the employer's point of view--Sack has already written "The Employee Rights Handbook" (1991)--this book will also help employees who might need to know what the "other side's" strategy is.

Posted by ESPN.com's Chris Low
Offered a chance to face UCLA in 2010 in a made-for-TV game at the Georgia Dome, Auburn said no thanks.
Auburn athletic director Jay Jacobs said the Tigers already have a full schedule in 2010, and he wasn't willing to give up a home game. He did say they had an opening in 2012 and would love to play the Bruins then.
The game would have been televised by ABC/ESPN.
Auburn begins a home-and-home series with Clemson in 2010, which was another reason Jacobs passed. Auburn plays at home against Clemson in 2010 and then travels to Clemson in 2011.

This is a really great Christian book about really believing and living who you are in Christ. I'd like to see the chapters expanded into other volumes. It covers a lot of truths. Very sincere and scripturally accurate book.

This hostel isn't the best bang for your buck. I stayed in a private room in Buena Onda and did not enjoy my experience. Because it's very hot and humid in Roatan and Buena Onda does not have A/C and the fans in my room were not very strong or cool, my friend and I were unable to fall asleep at night. The hostel is also located on a road that is a 10 minute walk from West End that I did not feel safe walking along at night. I'd recommend finding a cheap hotel on West End Road with A/C.

Great Hostel. It is an easy five minute walk to the beach, shops, restaurants and bars. The hostel is clean but there are mosquitos everywhere so wear bug spray!! The rooms were mosquito free. From the Ferry terminal you can get a taxi (if you ask to share they will find someone) cost us $230 for two people. Or you need to take two collectivos to get to west end. Cute island vibe on the town must nicer then west bay which was very touristy and expensive.

Pros: good kitchen for guests to use, friendly owner, clean, OK wifi, nice chill out area, lots of plug sockets for charging, some bottom bunks are double beds, cheap Cons: very hot in dorms as not enough fans, slightly outside town (only 5-10 min walk though), loads of mosquitos and cockroaches

Great hostel tucked away in a quiet place 5 minutes from West End beach, with West Bay beach 45 min walk or directly by $3 water taxi. Homey, relaxed atmosphere, Sofie (owner) and Diego warmly welcoming. There's a fully equipped kitchen, seating all around, a rooftop terrace with hammocks, above all an 'adult' hostel that treats you as a responsible guest, in a lovely 'home' which was clearly created with care and attention to detail. Thanks!

Many states have become aggressive when enforcing their non-resident state income tax withholding rules, and state payroll tax auditors are now questioning whether or not you have workers "performing services" in their state.
The definition of "performing services" also differs for each state, and compliance with each state's rules - and even knowing what they are - is difficult. For instance:
This audio conference will help you to know the taxation and reporting requirements for all states where your organization has employees working - or in some cases - living.
