Federal District Court Judge Petrese B. Tucker ruled today against General Information Services, Inc., a major background screening provider, in its motion that the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is unconstitutional. In what is predicted to be one of the largest class-action lawsuits brought against a consumer reporting agency, the U.S. Department of Justice successfully argued against GiS's defense. (The court's ruling can be found here.) The court's ruling now places GiS in the untenable position of either appealing or attempting to defend its illegal reporting practices ...

We all know that double glazed windows are more energy efficient than single glazed windows. But why is this? Argon filled windows are becoming very popular with energy saving householders, and this article will explain why. How Double Glazing Works The layer of air between the two panes of glass in double glazing acts as a barrier to protect the transfer of heat energy from inside to outside your home. In single glazed windows, the heat energy from your home hits the glass and is conducted straight through and into the cold air outside, where it is lost. With double ...

NLP stands for neuro-linguistic programming. It examines the link between how we think and feel (neuro), how we communicate (linguistic) and how we are programmed to behave (programme). Training in NLP helps you to understand these processes, and thus gives you the knowledge and tools to be able to change negative patterns of thought and behaviour into positive ones, both in yourself, and in your relationships and dealings with others. But there are many different NLP courses around and it can be confusing knowing which one is right for you: what is NLP training; what ...

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear the case of an Oregon man who was appealing the decision of a Linn County trial court that included his veterans' disability benefit payments as part of his income to calculate spousal support payments for the man's ex-wife.

Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the case of Texas death row inmate Carlos Trevino. Trevino was convicted in 1997 of the rape and murder of a 15-year-old girl at a San Antonio park. The ruling of this case could determine whether a defendant in Texas has a right to a "competent" attorney during habeas appeals. A habeas appeal is a challenge to a criminal conviction, which considers whether the defendant's constitutional rights were violated during his or her original trial. "Ineffective assistance of counsel" occurs when a client's ...

According to FBI statistics, more than 1.4 million people are arrested each year on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol. In nearly all of those cases, suspected drunk drivers will be asked to submit to a chemical test to determine their blood alcohol content. In South Carolina, as in most other states, drivers may refuse the breath test. (Though test refusal does come with its own penalties.) In some instances, however, the police officer may be able to compel a suspected drunk driver to submit to a blood test. The validity of warrantless blood testing ...

Over the last decade, new technologies have changed the way that we communicate. Being constantly plugged in and available is a requirement of many industries. Driving is no longer wasted time as more people multi-task while in their vehicles. The car industry has noted this trend and has equipped newer vehicles with various gadgets that allow drivers to conduct business via Bluetooth connectivity or check directions with a large screen Global Positioning System (GPS). Driving has always been risky. In fact, car crashes are the leading cause of death for those between ...

The debate between Arizona municipalities and their citizens is fueled by contradicting studies. Camera manufacturers and some cities claim studies show that red-light cameras reduce auto accidents at intersections and the costs associated with them while increasing revenue to the cities. However, others point to a 2005 study by the Federal Highway Administration that found while cameras reduce T-bone accidents, in which one car hits another at a perpendicular angle, they increase instances of rear-end crashes. The study looked at data from 132 cameras in seven areas ...

It's no secret that college tuition has skyrocketed at astounding rates in recent years, leaving many students deeply in debt after graduation. The sluggish job market for recent grads leaves many of them unemployed or underemployed, making repayment impossible for some.

For example, during years one and two of student loan repayment periods, 8.8 percent of loan holders defaulted in the agency's 2009 fiscal year compared with 9.1 in the 2010 fiscal year.

(Erik Adigard) Since everything started moving on the Internet a while ago, the toughest battles are fought online. And what's the most lethal weapon in this battle? The image. Therefore, an image with high potential value should reveal hard work and brainstorms and must deliver convincing ideas that captivate and spill a drop of philosophy. The problem nowadays is that these blacksmiths are taking over and bad design ...

Legal & General unveiled the rather startling news that the new EU rules mean that from 21st December 2012, women are likely to pay more when taking out new life cover and critical illness insurance. It materialised after a set of new rules and changes in law dictate that insurance providers will no longer be allowed to assess insurance premiums via gender. Having been the fairer sex when it came to insurance premiums, women now find themselves under a more critical gaze and no longer the safer investment and receivers of sounder, lower life insurance premiums.

A new book on the analysis of poker behavior is being called by many the best work on the subject.
