Teacher Pensions Prompt Lawsuit
2008-05-16 14:32:00 While the state await results from the potential exodus from its 401(k)-style retirement plan for educators, a lawsuit seeking class-action status targets the program's handling.As The Associated Press reports, the lawsuit alleges that members of the Teachers' Defined Contribution plan "were steered toward an investment that performed only slightly better than some savings accounts, and that some of them had wrongly been lured away from a traditional pension."The case focuses on an investment option offered to TDC enrollees by VALIC."VALIC engaged in a systematic scheme of hiring agents, with whom the teachers, school service personnel and professional staff were familiar,'' AP quotes the plaintiffs' lawyers as saying. "We believe many of the representations made by these VALIC agents were not factually based and were clearly fraudulent in character.''The Charleston Gazette and MetroNews also report on the lawsuit, with the latter offering audio from one of the suing lawyers.

5 Lessons to prompt you to reflect on how you treat people
2008-05-16 01:16:00 Ask yourself how you react to the following ideas. They are five lessons to prompt you to reflect on how you treat people. Imagine yourself in the shoes of different people in each story. Would it make sense to change any of your ways? Its never too late...1 - First Important Lesson - Cleaning Lady. During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and breezed through questions until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significan...

Smoltz Situation Could Prompt Trade
2008-05-01 10:55:00 John Smoltz is planning to return from the DL as a reliever in three weeks or so. This leaves the Braves with question marks in the rotation beyond Tim Hudson, Tom Glavine, and Jair Jurrjens. The fifth starter job is often in flux for a lot of teams, but it seems the Braves need to figure out one more long-term starter for the year. The Braves do have some arms to bring up from Triple A, namely lefties Jo-Jo Reyes and Chuck James. Reyes has a 1.17 ERA in five starts. In my opinion, the Braves need an innings eater if anything. Two trade possibilities come to mind: Joe Blanton and Kevin Millwood. I wonder if Billy Beane would demand top prospect Jason Heyward.

Threats of violence prompt security boost at Chrysler plant after layoff
2008-03-08 10:03:00 Threats of violence prompt security boost at Chrysler plant after layoff In response to threats of violence and vandalism, Chrysler boosted security and added police presence at its Belvidere, IL assembly plant Thursday. The rumors have been circulating all week, and are believed to be in response to the elimination of the third shift, which amounts to 1,069 workers being laid off this week, as announced in January. The added Chrysler security staff together with the police on-site are patrolling the plant and parking lots, searching workers? bags as they enter the factory. These measures are in response to threats that refer to last month?s shooting at the nearby Northern Illinois University, which killed six, according to local media. There have been no reports of any trouble. The Dodge Caliber, Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass, all of which share a common platform, are assembled at the Belvidere plant, which is one of five at which Chrysler announced it will end a shift.

Electronic searches prompt protests
2008-02-08 03:41:00 Nabila Mango, a therapist and a U.S. citizen who has lived in the country since 1965, had just flown in from Jordan last December when, she said, she was detained at customs and her cellphone was taken from her purse. Her daughter, waiting outside San Francisco International Airport, tried repeatedly to call her during the hour and a half she was questioned. But after her phone was returned, Mango saw that records of her daughter's calls had been erased. A few months earlier in the same airport, a tech engineer returning from a business trip to London objected when a federal agent asked him to type his password into his laptop computer. "This laptop doesn't belong to me," he remembers protesting. "It belongs to my company." Eventually, he agreed to log on and stood by as the officer copied the Web sites he had visited, said the engineer, a U.S. citizen who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of calling attention to himself. Here's a thought: Tell these border agent...
