Portner & Shure's Chinese Marketing Department head, Serena Chen, attended the celebration. The Chinese American Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit organization that seeks to present a unified voice of local Chinese-American businesses and professions. Here, the vast community of Chinese Americans in the DC Metro area band together to pursue interests that better them as a whole and cultivate positive participation from the community.

Ms. Chen was available to make a statement: "The Chinese community has helped Portner & Shure reach the distinction it enjoys today. Because of this, we make strong efforts to show our endless appreciation."

Not coincidentally, more people have become exonerated of their crime (freed from any criminal charge) than at any time in the nation's ...

Most notably, all of the bills introduced aim to expand Missouri's current texting ban to encompass all drivers, and not just those aged 21-years or younger. While it is obviously still too early to know if any of these bills will come to fruition, the fact that so many have been filed in such a short period of time certainly suggests that lawmakers are taking highway safety seriously. Indeed, ...
