...Lemon Law Lemon laws were another way for consumers to get some sort of compensation for a vehicle. This law is enacted in several states including California, the basic premise of this law is that when you purchase a car and the car does not meet standards or constantly breaks down then they have a right to go to return to the manufacturer. The only way that this will work out is if the car is still under manufacturer’s warranty. The manufacture is given several opportunity to fix the problem whether it is replacing the parts, or fixing the automobile in a timely manner if this does not work the manufacture has to give the consumer the money for the car. With this being said this law will only work if the automobile manufacture is not in bankruptcy. What is the case when the only safety net that is there for the consumer is taken away? How are people going to go out with the same confidence? “Under the California law, new or used vehicles that have a defect that can't be repaired after four attempts -- or two, in the case of life-threatening defects -- or that have been out of service for 30 days during the warranty period may be designated "lemons." That triggers an obligation for the manufacturer to either pay the owner a cash settlement or buy back the vehicle.” This is the safety net California consumers keep in mind when they buy a car. Buying an automobile is a big decision one that cannot be taken lightly since there is a large amount of money on the line knowing...

...Lemon Laws The Lemon Law applies to cars, motorcycles and other noncommercial vehicles that are used strictly for personal use. A lemon is considered a new car that has one or more problems that impair the use, value or safety of the vehicle. The problems must be occur in the first year or 18,000 miles whichever comes first. (ohioattorneygeneral) If the problems occur during this time you should take it back to the dealer you bought it from. If the problem is not fixed, you might qualify for a refund or replacement. Under the State and Federal law consumers have many legal rights as far as Lemon Laws. All 50 states have laws that will let customers return vehicles with major defects. (Soldiers Magazine 2003) One good way to know the condition of your car vehicle before you buy it is to get a Carfax. A Carfax report will give you valuable information about the vehicle before you purchase it. (Carfax) The report would include * Vehicle Registration * Title Information * Odometer Readings * Accident History * Damage * Repair Information * Recall Information Carfax Inc also offers a car buyback program if they give it a good report and you find problems after buying the car. If you want to request a refund you must first send a certified letter to the manufacturer. It must list the problems you have had with the car and what attempts you have taken to fix the problem. Once the manufacturer realizes the vehicle hasn’t been fixed there are a...

...I & II Introduction and Article Summary The Market for “Lemons”: Quality Uncertainty and the Market Mechanism by George A. Akerlof was published by the Oxford University Press in The Quarterly Journal of Economics in 1970. It discusses information asymmetry, which occurs when the seller knows more about a product than the buyer. Akerlof explains the problem of quality uncertainty with an example of the market for used cars. A used car is a car that has had one or more registered owners and has inevitable wear and tear. There are good used cars and bad used cars (lemons). A lemon is an American term for a car that is found to be defective only after it is bought. Used cars that are defective are called lemons, and most defects are attributed to several non-traceable variables such as maintenance, accidents, and previous owner’s driving style. The consumer buying the used car cannot tell if the car is a good car or a lemon, because most of the mechanical parts are hidden from view and not easy to access for inspection, so they assume that they are getting a car of average quality. If a consumer were to try and sell a well-maintained good used car, they would only be able to get the price for an average used car, which would not make selling the good used car worthwhile. Therefore, owners of good used cars won’t place their cars on the used car market, which will reduce the average quality of cars on the market. This will make the average price fall due to lower quality cars on...

It explains disabilities, how to handle them, and when to use them in making hiring decisions. It also provides information about "protected classes," in which people must be a member before they can claim "discrimination." You should plan to visit the EEOC website during this week to help work through this ethical dilemma faced by Paul and Mary, two managers in the company in "The Lemon Tree." Read through the fictional dilemma, and then choose the subject of discrimination discussed therein, planning to debate the ramifications of that with your classmates and your instructor. Some of this seems obvious, but others aren’t as easy to determine as they seem. Your instructor will bring in new and different “twists and turns” as we go along. Read the dilemma, and then let's discuss. (The dilemma is found on the left tree, entitled "The Lemon Tree Dilemma." ) 1. What is one aspect of Title VII that has been violated by the company? 2. Which actions by the two employees that call their credibility into question are you allowed, as an employer, to consider? Or, what types of actions are you not allowed to use and why? Are there any you wish you could use? Remember to support your answers to the questions above with a law or business reason. 1.

I don’t always need music to study there are times when it just helps when redoing notes, but not while trying to read information to be retained. My second style was Naturalistic. I enjoy the outdoors or at least an outdoor setting inside if possible. I have moved my desk next to a window with plants hanging as well as sitting around my desk. I allow my pets to join me in the room, but I pet them and sit them down on their pillow or close to my feet. I enjoy the natural lighting from the window instead of the harsh desk lamp at night. The breeze that blows through the window is relaxing to me. I keep a diffuser of lemon oil going most of the time, lemon smell makes me happy and peaceful. I tried to set up my area that makes me comfortable since I knew Nursing School would require me to sit and study away from distractions at home. While spending a lot of time in that space I wanted to make it appealing to me, not dreading to be there. I hope that this will put me in the right frame of mind while studying and help me relax, retain information and learn. My last style was Visual. I chose this category style even though I scored the same as Body and Verbal. I believe this is an area I need to focus on more for school.

...VINEGAR AND LEMON AS A HAND SANITIZER AN INVESTIGATORY PROJECT TO MS. RHEA SIENES OF THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF MARY HELP OF CHRISTIANS SCHOOL CEBU INC. In partial fulfillment in Science Submitted by: Regina Lim Rationale: Nowadays a lot of us Filipinos get sick easily. According to the experts, it is because of the germs we accumulate as our day progresses. These germs could pass from one person to another or by just touching anything and doing our day-to-day activities. How can we lessen the germs we get without affecting our activities for the day? That is how I came up with the idea of using vinegar and lemon as a hand sanitizer. Vinegar has anti-bacterial and cleansing purposes; lemon on the other hand can kill germs and remove any bad odors that your hands may have developed. Most hand sanitizers that we see in drugstores contain many chemicals and it can be very expensive at most times. The hand sanitizer I will be creating is the complete opposite. It is natural and eco-friendly and you can just make it with the items that are already in your pantry and refrigerator.
