I don't know about Colfax, [DeBaca] and [Guadalupe]-all of that's being trained," [Mary Herrera] says. "I'll make sure that we follow up with those three counties. "He probably is entitled to any funds that Democrats for [Rick Lass] expend on my behalf or to oppose him," Lass says and goes even further. "I would've thought that the money the Green Party directly donated to my campaign would qualify him for that too." Matt Brix, who was executive director of Common Cause when the election-reform organization pushed through the Voter Action Act, disagrees on the amount. Brix estimates the secretary of State only owes [Jerome Block Jr.] a few hundred bucks for an ad posted on Joe Monahan's political blog and, perhaps, for [Bernie Logue Y Perea]'s salary. The Political Action Committee's ...

The second panel discussion at the Lubin Forum on Contemporary Accounting Issues brought together a broad spectrum of professionals to discuss whether adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) will result in clarity or more confusion for investors. Many of the panelist agreed that integrated global standards have potential to facilitate international business in the long run. There are many wrinkles that still need to be ironed out out, however, including how to move from rules-based to principles-based accounting, who will regulate the process, and how companies and educators should begin to prepare for the transition. Much of the discussion focused on the bumps that are possible along the complex road to convergence. One concern is that IFRS will be splintered as ...
Believe it or not, actress Hilary Duff and Nation of Islam minister Louis Farrakhan have something in common: Both enjoyed a D.C. police escort before bad-boy celebrity Charlie Sheen highlighted the muddled policy issue in April, according to a ranking Metropolitan police officer. A D.C. Council committee hearing Thursday highlighted confusion over when a police escort is warranted and suggested the true policy had been buried in orders circulated around the Metropolitan Police Department.
In the aftermath of September 11, 2001, Attorney General John Ashcroft authorized the U.S. government to use material-witness arrest warrants to detain and investigate terrorist suspects. At that time, existing law permitted this investigatory use, based primarily on the principle that subjective intent is irrelevant in the standard Fourth Amendment context. In al-Kidd v. Ashcroft, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals erred in denying former Attorney General Ashcroft qualified immunity. Ashcroft’s decision to permit the government to use a valid material-witness arrest warrant to detain Abdullah al-Kidd did not violate al-Kidd’s constitutional rights, regardless of the government’s subjective intent. Furthermore, assuming that the government’s actions were unconsti...
A state report on the July 5 flash fire at Guardian Automotive Trim details the fear and confusion that immediately followed the incident. Two workers, Matthew Sorenson and Teresa Torres, were injured in the blaze.
Safety first, the old saying goes. The problem is how best to achieve that desirable but elusive goal with a solution that works for everyone. Field hockey made a major rule change this season with the designation of mandatory goggles, but it has resulted in more confusion than clarification.
More than 30 states now require mandatory training for long-term care insurance producers. While each stare's requirements are based on the standard model created by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), there are still significant differences among them. These variations are creating confusion for and big headaches for carriers, since for the first time they are accountable for their producers' compliance. The federal Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, which became law in 2006, restored incentives for states to implement long-term care partnership programs and gave them a new tool to combat the alarming growth in long-term care expenses falling under Medicaid. In 2006, NAIC updated its Long-Term Care Model Act to include this new mandatory training requirement. The NA...
