Manufacturer joins the state's 'smart gun' effort By Tom Bell Associated Press TRENTON - Officials at the New Jersey Institute of Technology say efforts to develop a "smart gun" have taken another step forward with the addition of a weapons manufacturer as a partner.

Coaching pitfalls and parlors [Johann Taljaard] (Dec 05 2003 16:54 GMT) - As a Coach, I am alsways, and when I have the opportunity, trawling the net and now the academy to look for like minded souls and ways to improve myself. What struct me as I was trawling was the number of sites that started from a negative starting block, and I'll try and give you an example or two. I suspect, that there are opinions in us about most thing. When it actually makes someone feel more rotten about themselves, it becomes destructive and adds no value to the process. Just some of the things I have noticed: |

Fair Credit Report Amendment To Correct Problem (Which Might Never Have Existed) On Sexual Harassment Investigations Signed Into Law By President Bush (Dec 05 2003 16:53 GMT) - How lawyers can make a mountain out of a mole hill. On the occasion of my 48th birthday, although I do not believe this was anything other than happenstance, a Federal Trade Commission staff attorney responded to a private sector lawyer's inquiry to the FTC, by opining that a sexual harassment investigation conducted by a 3rd party met the definition of a consumer report under the FCRA, thus invoking a number of requirements under the FRCA including obtaining permission of the person to be investigated and providing the subject of the investigation a copy of the report prior to taking any adverse action. The letter concluded, as did all such opinions, that -- This is an informal staff opinion and is not binding on the Commission." Although it is unknown, at least to me, what prompted this inquiry, I am not aware of any reported instance where a claim had successfully been brought or even been asserted that the failure to comply with the FCRA in connection with a sexual harassment investigation by a third party was illegal under the FRCRA. Having started the ball rolling however, and still as far as I am aware any reported case where this had proved to be an actual problem, yet another private lawyer inquired about implementing the FCRA provisions in connection with a 3rd party investigation, and received a similar non-binding letter that it was impermissible to redact any information from the report before giving it to the person being investigated. |
