...Analysing the Land Bill, 2015 The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 replaced the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 which was a general law relating to acquisition of land for public purposes and also for determining the amount for compensation to be made on account of such acquisition. The 2013 Act addressed the shortcomings of the previous Act by including provisions relating to just and fair compensation and rehabilitation and resettlement for the affected persons and their families. Some of the provisions incorporated under the Act are as follows: i. The definition of “Public Purpose” was restricted to the acquisition of the land for strategic purposes vital to the State and for infrastructure projects where the benefits accrue to the general public. ii. Additional benefits beyond the monetary compensation were provided to families affected adversely by involuntary displacement. iii. A mechanism for careful assessment of the economic disadvantages and the social impact arising out of displacement was discussed. iv. To ensure food security, multi-crop irrigated land had to be acquired only as a last resort measure. v. A scientific method for the calculation of the market value of the land for providing comprehensive compensation to the land owners had been devised. vi. Subsistence allowance, jobs, house, land in case of irrigation projects, transportation allowance and resettlement...

...Bill for land gives true value The draft law on acquisition strikes a balance between development and justice for those who will be displaced in the process India is a rapidly industrialising economy and society with intense demands for better infrastructure from its people. The last 20 years have seen a great acceleration in this process, with India becoming one of the world’s fastest growing economies. However, for those whose lands were acquired for these purposes and the even more vulnerable people whose livelihoods depended on the lands acquired, a great human tragedy has unfolded. Independent estimates place the number of people displaced following development projects in India since independence at 60 million. This is the highest number of people uprooted for development projects in the world. Only a third of these people were resettled in a planned manner. Most of them were the asset-less rural poor, marginal farmers, poor fisherfolk and quarry workers. Around 60 per cent of the displaced belonged to the Adivasi and Dalit communities. Given that 90 per cent of our coal, more than 50 per cent of minerals and most prospective dam sites are in Adivasi regions, there is likely to be continuing contention over issues of land acquisition in these areas. Two sides of a coin We need to move decisively away from the colonial Land Acquisition Act 1894, which treats the Indian people as “subjects,” towards a vision of citizens, whose rights are guaranteed under the Constitution...

Both the groceries and picture frame purchases were mandatory. From the grocery bill, $20.00 was a purchase from Wal-Mart for a box of chicken. The specific reason why I purchased the brand of chicken from Wal-Mart rather than any other store is because after evaluating different brands of boxed chicken this brand from Wal-Mart gives me more quantity for a cheaper price and the quality is more satisfactory to me. The extended problem solving for me ended up making my satisfactory level higher, and also made my budget a lot easier to organize. The rest of the grocery bill was spent at Sobeys. Reason being is because it was spontaneous shopping. Since only doing groceries last week and the box of chicken was purchased because of a shortage at home, the purchase was not mandatory but ended up being a surprise for even myself. Sobeys had sales on food that I regularly purchase at No Frills at the time being, so I decided to take advantage of the opportunity presented to me. I managed to save at least $8.00 so the purchase was smart on my end. I see why marketers research...

...Janet Wu BUS 424 10/14/2014 Should Underage Drinking be allowed for Educational Purposes? Governor Brown recently passed the Assembly Bill No.1989; otherwise known as the “Sip-and-Spit” bill. This law will take effect on January 1, 2015 allows college students between the ages of 18 and 21 who are enrolled in a wine-making or beer-brewing course to be able to drink alcohol and spit it out afterwards. There is existing law that forbids a person under 21 years old to have alcohol but this law would exempt specific students within California’s public institutions who are enrolled in a viticulture or enology program to fully experience what they have made as part of their curriculum. The main concern opposing this bill is that minors under 21 are not allowed to consume alcohol and by allowing students to do so at an earlier age may encourage underage drinking. Despite the concerns, this law received wide recognition among supporters such as the California Association of Winegrape Growers, California Craft Brewers Association, Family Winemakers of California, University of California and California State University. This bill has also been approved by the faculty in California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo to align with our motto of “Learn by Doing”. Cal Poly and UC Davis are major supporters behind this law simply because of this will allow students to have the same educational opportunities as students from others states (that exempt students from the...

...April 2009 I usually avoid politics, but since we now seem to have an administration that's open to suggestions, I'm going to risk making one. The single biggest thing the government could do to increase the number of startups in this country is a policy that would cost nothing: establish a new class of visa for startup founders. The biggest constraint on the number of new startups that get created in the US is not tax policy or employment law or even Sarbanes-Oxley. It's that we won't let the people who want to start them into the country. Letting just 10,000 startup founders into the country each year could have a visible effect on the economy. If we assume 4 people per startup, which is probably an overestimate, that's 2500 new companies. Each year. They wouldn't all grow as big as Google, but out of 2500 some would come close. By definition these 10,000 founders wouldn't be taking jobs from Americans: it could be part of the terms of the visa that they couldn't work for existing companies, only new ones they'd founded. In fact they'd cause there to be more jobs for Americans, because the companies they started would hire more employees as they grew. The tricky part might seem to be how one defined a startup. But that could be solved quite easily: let the market decide. Startup investors work hard to find the best startups. The government could not do better than to piggyback on their expertise, and use investment by recognized startup investors as the test of...

...Personal Interview Paper Kimberly Willard BSHS/355 January 19th, 2015 Karen Miner Personal Interview Paper This is a personal interview that I conducted with a woman whom is a case manager for a non-profit organization, called Health Right 360. Carla Johnson works exclusively with women on probation that have been mandated to participate in the (AB) 109 Bill. Miss Johnson shared with me what a day consists of working with these women The interview started with Carla sharing information regarding this program, how it came to exist and its impact upon these women. Carla explained to me that “In 2011, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. signed Assembly Bill (AB) 109 and AB 117, historic legislation that has helped California to close the revolving door of low-level inmates cycling in and out of state prisons” (n.d.). This means “Assembly Bill 109 establishes the California Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011 which allows for current non-violent, non-serious, and non-sex offenders, who after they are released from California State prison, are to be supervised at the local County level. Instead of reporting to state parole officers, these offenders are to report to local county probation officers” (n.d.). This means more opportunities for those that have been incarcerated for low level crimes. After speaking with Miss Johnson, she shared that the main focus of her job is recruitment, referrals and advocacy. Networking and collaborating with potential resource agencies...

...office. Because of its importance and power I felt impetus to write on this topic. The executive is a power in itself independent of the Congress but also in most cases restricted in power by that of Congress and the Supreme Court. The Constitution is specific on a few certain powers of the executive while being somewhat vague on other powers based more so on one’s interpretations and also precedents that may have been set forth in previous terms. But we may want to read the 'fine print' because along with these executive powers there come limitations in order to prevent any sort of tyranny or dictatorship. Probably the most effective or compelling power given the executive would be the veto power in which case the president may veto a bill sending it back to its origin with reasoning. Some would say the veto power is a means of defense for him and his office from being reduced to a subject of the legislature, thus maintaining its independence. Of course, even the president’s most compelling power has limitation. Congress is able to override his veto with a two-thirds vote in both houses. Of the 2,550 vetoes signed by our past 42 presidents, 106 were overridden by Congress, a little over 1%. This is not a discouraging number when analyzing the power the executive possesses. As much as the president is himself a powerful figurehead of our country, those appointed directly below him as part of the executive branch have a considerable amount of influence and...

In addition, he had a laceration of his lung. After consulation and review of his x-rays, his laceration was repaired. He was observed in the hospital for 2 days, to be sure that he did not have continuing hemmorrhage or collapse of his lung. I feel, that the bill given to Mr.Emerson is a fair one.Wereceived on July 31,200x, a Tellememer Insurance Company check for $200: and feel that, your payment of $180 is unreasonable.It is doubtful,that one could get a plumber to come out early Sunday morning to fix a leaky pipe for $200; and Mr.Emerson's situation in my opinion,was much more serious then would be encountered by a plumber. We will bill Mr.Emerson for the remainder of the $680 balanceon his account but i want you to know,that we feel that your payment is insufficient.If he feels that the bill is excessive,we would be glad to submit to arbitration through the County Medical Society Fee Committee.If this fails,I suggest we seek help through the New Mexico Insurance Commission.

After few minutes, he pointed at one dish on the menu and indefinitely said “Maybe, they ordered these. We can ask the waiter.” Finally, I ordered the one which was the same as the next table’s dishes. While we were waited for our dishes, we were talking about some interested things and laughing. After about half an hour, here came my food which is steak, salad and soup. I tasted the dishes and found the food were very delicious. I ate the meal very fast and finished it very quickly. I wiped my napkin across my mouth, and belched loudly. After we finished the meals, we needed to wait for the waiter to pay the bill.
