The Impact Of China's Labor Contract Law.
2008-09-15 13:12:00 By: Dan Harris and Brad Luo It has been a little over eight months since China enacted its groundbreaking new Labor Contract Law (“LCL”), which is just enough time to preliminarily assess its impact. The LCL has already greatly impacted employee treatment in China and greatly impacted how Chinese employees view their rights. It also has increased employer costs, but less than publicized. The LCL has caused some companies to go out of business and caused other companies to leave China for other countries less protective of their workers, but many of those companies were not terribly profitable in the first place. Before enactment of the LCL, employee abuse was rampant in China and worsening. Labor disputes in China increased more than thirteen-fold between 1995 and 2006 and a large and growing number of these disputes erupted into public demonstrations. Most Chinese labor law experts viewed the existing labor laws and regulations as inadequate for solving employer-empl...

On Rush Limbaugh, His $400 Million Contract & Bo Snerdley
2008-07-03 00:24:00 Today, it was announced that Rush Limbaugh signed a %400 million contract with Clear Channel. In this video, I explain that Rush's success came at a price. Michelle Sixta is a friend of mine and at one point lived on Madison, across Lake Merritt from me in Oakland, Ca. Michelle was a lot of fun. She and I would go on something called the "Back Yard Bird Watch" and generally had a good time, then lost touch after a few years. She was also -- prior to our meeting -- married to Rush as his second wife. She didn't talk about him much at all, but when she did, she explained that at first their marriage was fine, but as the years went on, Rush was more into himself than into her. He'd rather read a book than have sex. I hope she's going to get part of that $400 Million. Meanwhile, Rush has taken aim at Senator Barack Obama's run for president by employing his call screener James Gould as "Bo Snerdley" the official Obama criticizer.In my view, picking someone who looks like the Pillsb...

Braves Purchase Brian Lawrence's Contract
2008-06-09 17:47:00 32 year-old righty Brian Lawrence made six starts for the Mets last year and 16 in Triple A. He'd missed all of '06 due to rotator cuff and labrum surgery. Before that, he'd been a useful innings eater. This year Lawrence found himself playing independent ball for the Camden Riversharks playing alongside familiar names such as Ryan Drese and Jamal Strong. He posted a 3.21 ERA in eight starts. Today, the Braves purchased Lawrence's contract and assigned him to Triple A.

Odds And Ends: Flurry of DFAs And GM Contract Talks
2008-06-07 18:30:00 Tying lose ends on a very slow Saturday indeed. In a series of moves, the Jay's have activated Vernon Wells with less than a month after he broke his wrist in Cleveland and DFA'd Armando Benitez. I guess they're not going after Bonds. Steinbrenner: "There are no plans to sit down and talk with general manager Brian Cashman about his contract status." The G.M.'s contract expires after the 2008 season. By activating Jayson Werth from the DL, the Phillies were forced to DFA Chris Snelling, but the young outfielder is out of options. He has three days to accept the assignment or become a free agent. In order to make room for the newly-acquired Berroa, the Dodgers DFA'd Terry Tiffee. Dodgers beat writer Tony Jackson thinks he could be more expendable this way if he gets claimed off waivers. Bengie Molina is upset by comments made by Giant's G.M. Brian Sabean after this week's draft. Sabean said Buster Posey "is on the fast track and Bengie's clock is winding down." Alejandro "...

Former Governor Thompson Wins Government $11 Million Contract to Treat 9/11
2008-06-04 20:25:00 The Wall Street Journal reports that "Tommy Thompson's Firm Wins Contract to Treat Sept. 11 Workers". Tommy Thompson--a former Governor of Wisconsin--served as Secretary Health & Human Services under President Bush.It isn't all that suprising--or necessarily bad--to see a government contract arrive at the door-step of a firm that is now headed by someone that used to work for President Bush. However, in this case it is disappointing, beasuse--as The Wall Street Journal notes--"As HHS secretary, Tommy Thompson was criticized for not doing enough to help ground zero workers."I guess that has been the Bush Doctrine for awhile: keep doing what doesn't work; just package it as if you are doing something different.

Cristian Guzman To Wait On Contract Talks
2008-05-30 10:29:00 MLB.com's Bill Ladson has some info on impending free agent shortstop Cristian Guzman. Apparently there will be no extension talks with the Nationals until after the season, a decision made by both sides. Ladson's source indicates that Guzman might be willing to cut the Nats a break since he was injured for much of his current four-year deal. That break might translate to a two-year contract. We'll see if Guzman still feels the same after the season. In my Free Agent Stock Watch post on Guzman, I mentioned him as a cheaper alternative to Rafael Furcal. Furcal is looking questionable, and Guzman should be popular. Will he really forego a third year out of gratitude to the Nationals?

The Difference Between an "Offer" and a "Contract"
2008-05-27 21:02:00 In every real estate transaction, there is a written set of "instructions" called a "Contract of Sale" or "Purchase Agreement." It is the document signed by both buyers and sellers, and contains details of their agreement. The contract begins as a purchase "offer," and contains the terms of sale proposed by the buyers. This includes the "offered" price, the terms of payment, a closing date, the possession date, and other information. It may also spell out what personal property, if any, is to be included in the purchase price. If accepted by the sellers, this document becomes a binding contract. If not, negotiations will continue between buyers and sellers until agreement is reached. At that point the acceptable written document becomes binding on both sets of parties. The contract then becomes the basis for all further activities leading up to a final closing of the transaction. Attorneys, mortgage lenders, surveyors, title companies, and o... |
