Hi i am a Jungle main and my main is Yi, i play quite a lot of garen due to has skill ceiling being extremely low and is easy to play. I play on the SEA server using Garena. This also isn't the fanciest of guides since i don't do this a lot but i hope you like it
How to properly trade
When laning get use your Qto haras your opponent then immediately retreating to the brush to lose minion agro. When you have your E try to hit only the enemy champion as it does bonus damage to single targets, try activating your E then Q shortly after and it will give you a speed increase to catch up with your enemy, if their jungler comes to gank get 6 stacks on them kill then activate your Yoummu's then your Q then you'll be running faster than Berry Allen.
Items(Normal Garen)
Ravenous Hydra
- You should buy Ravenous Hydra because of your passive which heals you for a boat load of health combined with a Warmogs if you have one with lifesteal then of boi your health is gonna be healthy almost all the time
Titanic Hydra
- Buy this when you feel that your losing the game so while focusing on someone you can cause a little bit of aoe damage at the sametime to deal damage to the back lines
Yoummus's Ghostblade
- Get this item if your snowballing as it provides a movement speed buff when activated combine it with your Qand your Dead Man's Plate you'll be running at the speed of light.
Infinity Edge
- I never get this unless i'm 5/0 or really really fed because losing some armor is gonna cost so get this if your planning or already snowballing
Sunfire Cape
- Its unique passive - Immolate deals 25 damage increasing by level, the health and armor also helps out i would rush this in any game.
Black Cleaver
- This passive - Cleave: Cleaves your targets' armor and this can stack up to 6 times, at 6 stacks you will cleave of 30% of their armor and you can stack this onto multiple targets with your E so have fun.Its other passive is called - Rage dealing physical damage grants 20 movement speed for 2 seconds. Assists on Cleaved enemy champions or kills on any unit grant 60 movement speed for 2 seconds.
Items(AD Tanky Garen)
Frozen Mallet
-The slow and silence you apply is very useful and the passive slow is nice too and it will catch you up to your opponent like a LeBlanc who as annoying AF.
Phantom Dancer
- The crit chance, MS and AS speed is great and its passive letting you avoid unit collision
is also nice for chasing.
- It grants your 75 AD, 20% lifesteal and a shield. So just by farming it will over-heal you and all the over-healed health well converts into a Big ARSE shield that block AF-ton of damage.
What to do in team fights and skirmishers
Team Fights
-In a team fight your the tank so jump in when your team is ready, be a good meat shield and block any incoming skill shots, when your in the middle if you can get there E then Q then apply 6 stacks to each enemy try to pick of the adc or threats to your team if you kill the cleaved target you will be granted 60 movement speed for 2 seconds
Small Skirmishers
- Do the exact same thing and apply 6 stacks so as many people as you can then pick off the threats to your team
As Garen your a little bit like Nasus as you need to farm to get tank items to be useful his W gives him permanent AR and MR yes but only to a maximum of 30 so getting a Sunfire Cape ASAP is crucial. If you want to get your laning opponent bait them out wait for them to use their spells and waste their mana since Garen is not mana based, then go in and force them out of lane or kill your opponent. After kill or forcing your laning opponent to back, you should shove the wave as quickly as possible and get couple of AA's at their tower then back if you want to, this way you'll be doing tower damage and making them lose out on farm. Then TP back to lane as if you were never gone.
Thank You
Thank you for reading my guide and making it here so far and this is my first guide technically so i hope you enjoyed it and can help you be a better Garen player.

I interviewed 4 other realtors regarding listing and sale of my home. The decision to chose Mel was very easy. He is a good listener, thinks before he speaks and above all is honest. He always put me first and provided thoughtful counsel regarding complex issues. His photographer was amazing. Skip the interview process, choose Mel, get it done and make a lifetime friend. What else do you need?by F. Harmon 2017
Hands down the best in Lake Mary he knows his stuff and will work for you all the way!!! He not only help us sale the house but we had a tenant renting our property and he helped us with working with that tenants. He has a world of experience so any update you want to do on the house he will give you his honest opinion or he can recommend someone to do the job for you.

The whole experience was seamless. He was always attentive to my millions of questions and was extremely helpful. I would highly recommend him. A super nice guy and a pleasure to work with!!by L. Sluss 2017
Mel is a true professional. If I have to do it again, my first call would be to Mel. We were fortunate to have Mel broker the deal with the sellers. the negotiation process was professional and complete with business as the priority, with emotions placed aside.by R. Hayes 2017
Mel was so helpful and knowledgeable throughout the buying process and we couldn't be happier with our new home! We looked at so many, but Mel was always patient and didn't pressure us at all. We will definitely seek his expertise when we go to sell.by E. Savory 2017
Mel is exactly the guy I needed for an agent. In the beginning he told me that he makes time for everyone, and he was right. Throughout my entire home buying process, he was never late once to all of the homes and closing events. He was knowledgeable about every type of house sale out there, whether it be foreclosure, short sale, or conventional. He isconfident and reassuring, and still allowed me to make all my own decisions. On top of that, his connections in the real estate industry and help in providing excellent references proved beyond the value I could have expected. Mel connected me with great lending and title companies. In the end he was able to help me close on my new home in just a couple weeks. Lastly, Mel provided me with several excellent companies to help with some remodeling in my new house. Mel made time for me every time I needed him and he will do the same for you.by K. Miles 2017

Yesterday an article ran on BoxingScene.com where former junior welterweight champion Amir Khan said that he would like to face either Devon Alexander, Andre Berto or Robert Guerrero in December. Khan hopes that a win over either former champion will lead him to a shot against Floyd Mayweather in 2015.
"For December we're looking at a few names, the likes of Alexander, Guerrero. Berto has also been mentioned but we train together, so that would be quite hard. I like Berto, he's a good friend of mine. But I'm one of those guys - I'll never say 'no' to a fight. I'll take whoever they decide to put me against," Khan told The Daily Telegraph.
"A fight in the first week or second week of December would be ideal. I'd like it to be in England, but there's a lot of talk that it may be in Dubai. I'm just going to let Al Haymon [Khan's adviser] and the team, Golden Boy, give me a few options and I'll take it from there."
Khan and Alexander were supposed to face each other last December at the Barclay Center in Brooklyn, NY. Khan, believing he had a May fight against Mayweather secured, opted to bypass the fight and go straight to Mayweather. Khan's plans fell through when Mayweather opted to face Marcos Maidana instead.
When Alexander's manager and trainer Kevin Cunningham heard the news that Khan was looking to possibly face his fighter again, Cunningham said that Khan already had his chance and that Khan doesn't call the shots.
"Khan has already ducked Devon once so who cares what he wants," Cunningham told BoxingScene.com.

A recent study by The International Newspaper Marketing Association documented the continuing slide in newspaper readership among women. This information is a major concern for ad-carrying newspapers who know that women have a strong decision making influence in household spending. The study goes on to say that local community news is of primary interest to the majority of female newspaper readers, with an additional emphasis on topics of health home and family. While weekly community newspapers do a better job than larger circulation dailies of meeting the desire for local news, the lifestyle content in both types of newspapers is still underutilized. Is it any wonder many women are eschewing newspapers altogether for special interest magazines and niche websites?
Not surprisingly, this neglected demographic includes a substantial niche of women who have left the work force to stay home with their children. According to a recent Census Bureau survey, about 10.6 million mothers have chosen to stay home with their children… up 13 percent in less than a decade!
Additionally, according to a survey done by Mothers and More, a national mothers support group of over 7,500 women, their typical member is 34 years old and has two children; 84% of members have college degrees, and 30% have a masters, Ph.D. or other professional degree. Considering college-educated woman ages 25-54 have such incredible buying power, it seems it would behoove newspapers to take strides to reach out to this substantial demographic.
One proven draw for women has historically been the humor column. Based on the success of such columnists as Dave Barry and Erma Bombeck, it's clear that features which relate to a woman's life with humor and wit are appealing to female readers. This can clearly be seen in the case of LOST IN SUBURBIA®. After launching in one local New Jersey newspaper, LOST IN SUBURBIA®, was quickly picked up by several other papers in the same chain.The column is now syndicated in over 400 newspapers and 250 related websites and reaches an audience of nearly 10 million readers in 25 states.
"Over the years, I've heard from scores, perhaps hundreds of people who wanted to write a humor column about family life and modern society. None of them ever came close to having Tracy's chops. They all think it'll be easy. It isn't. They don't understand how to make the yucks universal. Tracy does."

After their comfortable opening round win over Dublin, Meath progressed to the semi final of the Leinster Under 17 Special football championship with this easy win over Carlow at Pairc Tailteann.
Meath 2-19 Carlow 0-4
Despite the scoreline the visitors gave a good account of themselves in the first half and but for some wayward shooting could have been a lot closer to the Royals at the break. Meath led at the interval 0-9 to 0-2.
As in the win over Dublin the Meath trio of Cian McBride, Shane Walsh and Jordan Morris were very impressive for the winners.
A fantastic catch from Cian McBride against Carlow
Morris got the old scoreboard working with the games first score after two minutes. Carlow captain Conor Doyle tied the game up a minute later and in the following five minutes the Barrowsiders dominated but hit four bad wides.
Meath regained control with five points without reply through Matthew Costello (2), Morris (2) and a fine effort from half back Oran Smullen while Carlow had to wait till the 22nd minute for their second score courtesy of full forward Andrew Kehoe.
Carlow's Hugh Dooley with Fergal Watters Meath
Meath finished out the half with three more points. Team captain Liam Byrne sent over a long range free, Morris added to his tally while Shane Walsh completed the scoring as the Royals went to the dressing rooms seven ahead.
Carlow were first toff the mark in the second half when Andrew Kehoe sent over a free to double his tally but from there on Meath took over. McBride dominated the middle sector and scores from Aaron Lynch, Morris (2) and Walsh put the home county 0-13 to 0-3 ahead by the 50th minute. Kehoe added his third point for Carlow after 23 minutes and that proved to be their last score. Influential midfielder Doyle was sent to the line and from there on Meath totally dominated.
Shane Walsh gains possession for Meath
Full forward Morris set up Walsh for the games opening goal and the impressive number 14 followed this up with two points. Walsh was on hand to raise another green flag when Meath cut through the Carlow defence on the 27th minute. The same player added three points in the closing minutes to complete the rout.
Meath join Kildare, Dublin and Laois in the semi finals.
Carlow's Tadgh Roche with Meath's Matthew Costello
Meath: Lee Brown; Sean Bannon, Conal Courtney, Michael Gavin, Oran Smullan 0-1, Liam Byrne 0-1, Michael Murphy, Colm Doherty, Fergal Waters, Cian McBride, Shane Walsh 2-5 Patrick Matthews, Aaron Lynch 0-1, Jordan Morris 0-8, Matthew Costello 0-3.

LEADING THE PACK: ABC had its best prime-time ratings week in four years, thanks largely to its NFL playoff and BCS championship game coverage finishing among the 20 most-watched shows of the week. The net averaged 15.9 million viewers, easily beating No. 2 CBS (12 million).
WITH HOCKEY ON ICE … : NBC was supposed to kick off its NHL coverage on Jan. 8 but had to find alternative programming because of the league's lockout. The result: The network aired "The Purina Incredible Dog Challenge" from 3 to 4:30 p.m. ET. The special averaged 2.23 million households, 42.9 percent more than what ABC drew on the same Saturday last year for its season-opening NHL coverage and more than double what NBC got last year with "PGA America's Year in Review."
NBA GETS DOGGED: ABC's Saturday afternoon New York-Cleveland/Denver-San Antonio split national coverage on Jan. 8 averaged 86,000 fewer households than NBC's dog show, which aired against the game coverage. The NBA broadcast average a 2.0 rating/5 share.

The U.S. prides itself on being the source of the world's greatest innovations. While this generally is true, we have become complacent and are at risk of being overtaken by increasingly unique innovation in other countries. The U.S. ranks number two in patents granted worldwide, just behind Japan, but China is rising quickly in the ranks.
Historically, most innovation in developing markets was adapting business models from industrialized markets to the local situation. Think Baidu in China, which is a Google equivalent, or V Kontakte in Russia, which is the local Facebook.
However, we are seeing an increasing amount of leapfrogging, as developing markets innovate to create new business models that bring them ahead of industrialized markets. Here are five innovations doing just that:
1. Mobile Payments that Work: M Pesa
Emerging markets tend to rely on mobile communications much more than the US. Cell phones are plentiful, cheap and often more reliable than traditional fixed line phones. For example India, has 30 times the number of cell phone users as landlines. At the same time, the percentage of the population that has access to traditional financial services is low, creating a gap in how to make payments.
Enter M Pesa, an easy to use, low transaction cost, ubiquitous way of making mobile payments. Launched in Kenya in 2007 by Vodaphone's Safaricom, it now handles over 80 transactions per second and more than 30% of Kenya's GDP. If you want to buy groceries, pay for your next holiday or shop for the latest fashionable clothing you can use M Pesa. Compare that to the U.S., where mobile payments are still something of a novelty and largely relegated to paying your monthly cell phone bill. The U.S. has a long way to go.
2. Next Generation Social Network: WeChat
China's Tencent had been a laggard in the domestic and global social media markets until it launched WeChat (WeiXin) in early 2011. Taking its cues from Facebook, instant messaging and Skype, WeChat is much more than the sum of its parts.
Want to send an instant voice message to a friend on the other side of the world for free? Done. Want to post content to friends quickly and securely? Done. Need to send a quick message to your family but don't want to incur text messaging fees? Done. Want to to discover people near you and make some new friends? Done. The system is easy, fun and just works.
WeChat now has more than 236 million users and is rumored to be launching e-commerce and banking services over the next few months. In many ways WeChat has leapfrogged its developed market peers. Don't believe me? Tencent's market cap is now over $100 billion, rivaling that of Facebook.
3. Water Desalination: IDE Technologies
Water is boring, right? Who really cares about water technology? Then again, the U.S. has suffered from some of its worst droughts in recent years and if you live in the water starved Southwest, this is no laughing matter. To put things in perspective, it is estimated that there will be a 40% worldwide shortfall in water by 2030.
If you search the globe for the most advanced water technology, you may be surprised to find yourself in Israel. Long a center for high technology, Israel has pioneered everything from drip irrigation to desalination. With the world's fresh water sources drying up in the U.S. and being irreparably polluted in China, desalination is becoming a critical technology.
IDE Technologies, based just north of Tel Aviv, just opened up the world's largest seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant. While there are certainly competitors in the space, IDE has aggressively expanded from traditional oil and gas and mining verticals to address the needs of governments as they fight to provide clean water for drinking and other uses to their people.
4. Business to business commerce: Alibaba/Taobao
Taobao. Aibaba. For anyone living in China, these are household names. For U.S. based purchasers looking for new suppliers, you probably have heard of them. But for most Americans, the fact that Alibaba sold $5.9 billion on China's "Black Friday" would come as something of a shock.
Jack Ma, Alibaba's founder, is a huge celebrity in his native land, and rightfully so. A former teacher, he founded Alibaba in 1999. A few years later the company launched Taobao as an e-commerce site and has continued to grow rapidly. Still the world's largest B2B marketplace, privately held Alibaba is expected to IPO in 2014, with a valuation that will likely be higher than Twitter and Facebook combined. Once it has additional cash in its coffers, don't be surprised to see Alibaba competing with Amazon and E-bay in the U.S.
5. Sustainable Cars: Biofuels in Brazil
The U.S. keeps talking about energy independence, but so long as the internal combustion engine and gasoline are the dominant forces in getting cars from Point A to Point B, we will need imported crude oil. Looking south to our neighbors in Brazil, we see an innovative market where the government actually has had the foresight to put in place the infrastructure and regulations to create an independent, sustainable transportation industry.
Brazil's government decided in 1976, amidst the oil shocks of that decade, to require all gasoline to include at least 10% ethanol. That proportion has increased over the years and Brazil now relies on biofuels for over 20% of its total transportation fuels. Today, all cars sold in Brazil can handle biofuels, which are mainly derived from local sugar cane. While the U.S. and other markets chase after "next generation" biofuels made from cellulose and other technologies, Brazil has quietly, consistently, pushed far ahead of other countries in creating the world's leading biofuels market.

Executive Summary
To determine how Texas could be affected by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Clean Power Plan (CPP), we applied CNA's Electricity-Water-Climate power sector model to evaluate the potential impacts. We find that under the CPP, the state will save water and reduce levels of conventional air pollutants. In addition, the state will be able to meet the policy's targets with modest incremental effort even though electricity demand is expected to increase by 25 percent.
We summarize our main findings:
1. Under the CPP, water consumption by the Texas power sector could be cut by more than 20 percent compared with water consumed in 2012. This is about 88,000 acre-feet per year.
2. The Texas power sector is already moving to cut the carbon dioxide (CO2) intensity of its economy—the objective of the CPP—by shifting away from coal and toward natural gas and wind power.
3. The demand-side energy efficiency gains proposed by EPA would reduce the need for new power generating capacity in Texas. As a result, Texas would avoid increased water use and would significantly reduce conventional air pollution and CO2 emissions.
4. Under the CPP, the cost per unit of electricity produced would increase by 5 percent, but total system costs would decrease by 2 percent.
Drought in Texas
Texas is periodically subject to severe drought. In 2011, the state experienced the worst single-year drought in its recorded history. [1]. Demand for electricity was at an all-time high because of the heat, and the water needed to cool the state's coal, nuclear, and gas power plants was in short supply. In some places, water levels had dropped below intake pipes; in others, the available water was too hot to provide effective cooling. Texans were warned that rolling blackouts were possible, as power plants that could not be properly cooled would have to shut down [2].
The drought has become less severe since then, but as of August 25, 2014, 59 percent of the state was still under moderate to extreme drought [3]. Reservoirs were about two-thirds full for that time of year, about 20 percentage points below the long-term median [4].
With high population and economic growth, the impact of water stress on the economy is a high priority for the state. The Texas Water Development Board believes that water resources are insufficient to meet projected needs during a drought [5]. In 2005, the largest source of water withdrawals in Texas was for cooling thermoelectric power generation. At 10.9 million acre-feet (ac-ft)1 per year, this use accounted for about 40 percent of total freshwater withdrawals [6]. The power sector's dependence on water is a source of vulnerability [7].
As Texas grapples with this problem, decision-makers in the state must also consider a new federal policy, one which is aimed at producing a major shift in how electricity is produced in the United States. A key concern for Texas is how the policy will affect water use in the power sector. This report is intended to address that question.
The Clean Power Plan (CPP)
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the Clean Power Plan (CPP) on June 2, 2014 [8].2 Under the plan, the Obama Administration hopes to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the power sector by 30 percent across the country relative to CO2 emission levels in 2005. The CPP defines state-specific CO2 intensity rates—i.e., the number of pounds of CO2 that can be emitted per megawatthour (MWh) of power produced. This rate is determined by dividing total CO2 emissions from the power sector in a given state by total power generation in that state (excluding most of the nuclear power but including renewables) plus demand-side energy efficiency gains. All CO2 emissions from the power sector are under a single state bubble; EPA is not proposing limits for individual power plants, as it does under other rules for conventional air pollutants. EPA's use of CO2 intensity rates is intended to provide flexibility to state regulatory agencies. In addition, by including demand-side energy efficiency as part of the equation to reduce CO2 emissions, EPA is attempting to provide further flexibility to regulators and to incentivize energy efficiency (EE) programs [10]. EE programs tend to be a low-cost approach to reducing emissions.
EPA specifies two intensity rates: (1) the final rate, a single-year rate that must be achieved by 2029 and (2) the interim rate, which is the average rate between 2020, when the CPP is to come into force, and 2029, the last year of the plan. The rates for each state are determined by EPA analysis [10].
EPA outlines four "building blocks" that states can use to achieve interim and final intensity rates. We list them below:
1. Reduce the CO2 intensity of generation at individual coal-fired power plants through efficiency improvements;
2. Switch generation from coal-fired power plants to natural gas combined cycle plants (NGCC);
3. Employ zero-emission renewable energy and some nuclear power;3 and
4. Reduce emissions by cutting growth in power demand through the use of demand-side energy efficiency. [10]

Ancient China is the place where acupuncture was born. It has been producing beneficial results against various types of diseases since the day of its inception. It maintains the proper flow of energy in our body parts and at the very same time, it improves the function of healing. The diseases against which it produces effective results are discussed underneath.
Headache is one of the diseases that can be found in almost everyone. To cure the disease from the root level, acupuncture supplies a beneficial way.
Weight loss
Acupuncture helps you in gaining a perfect health by reducing the extra weight that you might have put on. If you are treated with acupuncture regularly, you will find yourself more flexible with a healthy diet. Even, the exercises connected with the treatment will add some extra effort to the weight loss program.
Acupuncture cures migraines. People get affected with the disease because of the increasing tension. Acupuncture reduces it from the root level and thereby it cures the disease. The most amazing thing about the treatment is that it can cure migraine without giving you pain.
Immunity Power
Acupuncture also works in helping you getting back the immunity power that you have lost with the passage of time. With a strong immune system, you can fight against various common diseases.
One of the diseases against which acupuncture has produced extraordinary result is infertility. It helps enhancing the functions of the reproductive organs by maintaining the proper flow of blood. The reason behind the increase in the number of women who are affected with infertility is the increasing stress that they have to deal with regularly. Acupuncture helps to reduce stress and thereby cure infertility from the root level. Patients who are suffering from blocked sperm ducts, should try the treatment to get back into normalcy. It is informed that you should not try acupuncture if you are being treated with any other medical treatment.
Apart from all these benefits, acupuncture maintains the temperature of the body so that the body parts can perform well. Very often, the method of acupuncture treatment is not considered safe because sometimes people get infected. This is why the needles that are used in the method, should be cleaned with disinfectants at first. People also avoid it because of the pain associated with the treatment. You should not be afraid of it as you will feel a slight sensation while the needles will be inserted into your body.

text: President Obama is expected to sign an executive order today that bars federal contractors from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. The executive order is not expected to exempt religious organizations, as some Christian colleges and other Christian organizations have sought, The New York Times reported. Other religious organizations have said that no exemption is needed -- and many gay rights groups encouraged the president to proceed without an exemption. Within higher education, much of the impact may be symbolic as the largest federal contractors tend to be research universities that, public or private, are secular institutions.

Doctor Who: The Talons of Weng-Chiang [DVD]
As a Doctor Who nerd and an admirer of several of the lead actors in this long running science-fiction series, it is difficult to come up with a favorite episode or story. One finds much of what is discussed on various websites, television programs, magazines, blogs… or real life conversations for that matter tend to fall under the categorizing or ranking of books, films, music, athletes, politicians, restaurants, etc. Is this need for placement really all that necessary? Must our filing cabinets extend throughout all of space and time?
Let's just say, that the The Talons of Weng-Chiang from the Tom Baker era is a story that I really, really enjoy.
Robert Holmes, who was one of the more prolific and humorous writers of the Doctor Who enterprise, scripts an exciting adventure taking place in Victorian London. Our time traveling protagonist called "the Doctor" and his assistant Leela find themselves mixed up an other worldly, underground cult, battling a giant sewer rat and dealing with a scary looking puppet (I know, right?!!). The episode has a Sherlock Holmes motife: the vested Doctor is fully equipped with a long herringbone overcoat, a deerstalker hat and cravat. Furthermore, Holmes (this time I'm talking about Robert) playfully throws in several references to Conan Doyle's writings.
The Talons of Weng-Chiang is an excellent introduction to Doctor Who if you're unfamiliar with the series. The script is dynamite, there are memorable, comedic supporting roles and it ABSOLUTELY STARS THE GREATEST ACTOR TO PLAY THE DOCTOR. Busted… caught ranking, categorizing and picking favorites. I guess it's just what we do.

Jeeves & Wooster [DVD]
Starring the incomparable comedic duo of Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, this British TV series is an adaptation of P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves stories.

Trade Q&A: What's the Deal on ISDS?
Published May 7, 2015
Jump To
Expanding U.S. exports, a vital step in promoting U.S. economic growth and raising stagnant middle-class wages, will be one of the biggest policy debates in this Congress. And with good reason—95% of the world's consumers live outside of our borders, and leaders on both sides of the aisle want to ensure global markets are buying more Made in the USA goods and services.
The first step in this debate is the bipartisan, bicameral trade promotion authority (TPA 2015) deal, the procedural tool that allows for the consideration of trade deals. As policymakers consider approving TPA 2015, one of the issues that's not well understood is investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS).
In this memo, we answer the five main questions about ISDS.
1. What is ISDS?
What recourse does a U.S. company have overseas if a foreign government seizes their factory or forces that company to turn over valuable intellectual property or patents? This is where ISDS comes in.
ISDS is a legal mechanism aimed at settling investment disputes between investors and countries. Using a panel of three adjudicators (each side selects one and the third person is selected based on agreement between the two sides), ISDS allows for an investor from one country to bring a claim and seek arbitration. This process provides an impartial approach to ensure companies have basic rights and resolve conflicts without creating conflict.
In the U.S., the Constitution ensures that everyone gets fair protection through our courts. The United States is prohibited from expropriating private property without compensation or enacting discriminatory laws against foreign firms.1 But many other countries fail to offer protections and instead punish American companies. The goal of ISDS is to ensure everyone can have basic rights like they do under U.S. law. The simplest way to think about ISDS is that it helps bring other countries up to U.S. standards, and not bring U.S. standards down to those of other countries.
Take a small U.S. computer chip manufacturer operating overseas. If their factory gets taken over by foreign country, they could take their case to a foreign court. But not all foreign courts are as fair and transparent as those in the United States, and foreign courts do not always provide a neutral forum when a foreign investor is challenging a government. ISDS ensures that American companies and investments get a fair shake in foreign countries.
ISDS ensures five rights—rights that U.S. and foreign investors are guaranteed here in the United States, but may not enjoy overseas:
- Freedom from discrimination, which assures that U.S. companies will play on a level field and will not be treated less favorably than local companies or those companies from other countries;
- Protection against seizure (expropriation), preventing American companies' property from being seized without fair compensation;
- Protection against denial of justice, which means that no U.S. company will be denied justice in any judicial proceeding, may it be criminal or civil;
- Right to transfer capital, which allows for the freedom and flexibility to move capital; and
- Freedom from forced use of local content or local technology, or forced technology transfer, which prevents a U.S. company from being required to use the foreign country's technology or tools rather than the U.S. company's preferred option.2
2. Is ISDS common in international agreements?
ISDS, in its various forms, is part of more than 3,000 worldwide agreements—including in 50 U.S. agreements.3 In its basic form (in which an international tribunal hears a case over investment disputes), this process has been around since the 1700s. Modern-day ISDS has been used regularly and increasingly often for decades. And while some decry that cases have been increasing, there have been only a total of 568 cases under all of these agreements since 1987.4
3. Has ISDS been used successfully against the United States?
The United States has rarely been the subject (or respondent) of an ISDS claim, having only faced 17 ISDS claims. But the U.S. is undefeated. Of these 17 cases, the United States has won 13 times, the plaintiff abandoned their case in two instances, one case was made moot by the conclusion of the U.S.-Canada Softwood Lumber agreement, and one case is dormant.5
On the other side, U.S. companies have used ISDS 132 times, or 22% of global ISDS claims, since 1987, which makes sense given that the United States accounts for the same proportion of global foreign investment.6 U.S. companies have won or settled 48 cases, lost 35, and have 37 cases (nearly all of the remaining cases) pending.
4. How is ISDS addressed in TPA 2015?
Although no federal labor or environmental law has ever been altered or abrogated due to ISDS, TPA 2015 added a series of protections to ensure ISDS helps against unfair government treatment overseas—but also to protect U.S. federal and state government activity.
Most notable is that TPA 2015 requires that protections offered to foreign investors do not exceed those offered to U.S. companies and citizens. That means it is no easier—and in many cases much harder—to challenge U.S. government activity under ISDS than under existing U.S. laws. In short, ISDS does not, in fact, create any greater risk to the United States. In TPA 2015, there are also procedures that tamp down frivolous claims, require transparency in all notices, briefs and hearings, and allow for efficient selection of arbitrators.
5. Will ISDS force the United States to change its current laws or prevent the United States from passing new laws?
ISDS does not change any U.S. law, nor will it prevent the United States from passing new laws. Any change to U.S. law must be approved by Congress. There's been a lot of misinformation that ISDS gives foreign companies the opportunity to affect and weaken U.S. laws—particularly environmental, health, and labor regulations. However, the reality is that ISDS cannot make any country change any law or regulation.7 The language of the model U.S. investment agreement is clear; panels can only require the payment of "monetary penalties."8
As we detailed above, ISDS is an arbitration process and is simply a path for pursuing justice and ensuring that investors have basic rights abroad—just like we have here in the United States. As part of any trade or investment text, ISDS will not allow foreign countries to supersede or change U.S. laws. Most cases involve challenges to contract breaches, rather than challenges to broad-based laws or regulations. But when our laws have been challenged, the U.S. government has won.
For example, California banned a gasoline additive in the 1990s due to concerns about it leaching into groundwater. And they had every right to do that. A Canadian company that made the additive wanted to stop the ban, but their claim was rejected because countries (the United States in this case) are allowed to regulate for health and the environment, and other areas that are considered public welfare. Indeed, recent U.S. FTAs include language stating that regulations to protect health, environment, and other public goods cannot be subject to ISDS claims.
Negotiators have also said that TPP doubles down on the idea that all countries have an inherent right to regulate public welfare—such as public health, safety, the environment, and the conservation of living or non-living exhaustible natural resources—further locking in fundamental U.S. rights.
ISDS is not only an extremely common part of international dispute settlement, but it's also necessary. ISDS protects U.S. companies and investments in foreign countries.
And because the United States does not steal other country's intellectual property, seize their factories, or use other discriminatory tactics, ISDS has never been used successfully against us. ISDS has not and will not weaken any American law, including those on the environment, worker protections, minimum wage, or anything else.
