...Circulars and Notices Like memos, circulars and notices are also written forms of communication within the organization. The difference between a circular and a notice is that circulars are announcements that are distributed to small or selective groups of people within the organization, whereas notices are meant for a larger group of people. Example – If a manager wants to call a meeting of heads of departments, he will pass around a circular only to the heads, requesting them to attend that meeting. On the other hand, notices generally contain information or announcements that are meant for all the employees of an organization. Example – A list of declared holidays for a calendar year is a notice, since the information is relevant to all employees. A notice is therefore a legal document that has to be put up on an official notice or bulletin board. A sample circular and notice are given below – TO : All Departmental Heads CIRCULAR Safety Aspects in Science Laboratories The purpose of this circular is to emphasize the importance of safety in research laboratories. All laboratory supervisors are responsible for the safety of research scientists in their charge. It is their duty to draw their attention to any safety hazard that pertains to a particular activity. In this context, supervisors...

...“That’s all human beings are! Just blind people.” This is what Emily Webb notices near the end of Thornton Wilder’s play, Our Town. However, Scout Finch learns just the opposite. She learns that we all are trying to be good people, and we just have a few blind spots. Scout and Emily notice very different things throughout their lives, Scout notices that most people are good while Emily notices that we are all blind; Scout notices that we all have different circumstances while Emily notices that we all live the same life; and Scout learns to focus on the big picture while Emily notices that we should focus more on the small things. While Emily is learning that we are all living life blind, Scout discovers that we all have good intentions and a few blind spots. From Mr. Cunningham to Boo Radley, Scout learns from her father and from experience that people are only acting in their own self interest with good intentions. Mr. Cunningham shows her that even people who are doing bad things generally have good intentions. Boo Radley shows her that even people who seem evil can be the nicest people in the world. People are only acting in the best way they can, and we can’t understand them unless we walk in their shoes. On the other hand, Emily notices that all people are blind to...

...Federal law requires employers to notify employees of their rights under USERRA, and employers may meet this requirement by displaying this notice where they customarily place notices for employees. USERRA protects the job rights of individuals who voluntarily or involuntarily leave employment positions to undertake military service. USERRA also prohibits employers from discriminating against past and present members of the uniformed services, and applicants to the uniformed services. Vacation pay Service members must, at their request, be permitted to use any vacation that had accrued before the beginning of their military service instead of unpaid leave. However, it continues to be the law that service members cannot be forced to use vacation time for military service. Reservists and members of the National Guard (when in active federal service) are also protected under the SSCRA. SSCRA (for all) begins on the first day of active duty, which means when the person ships out to basic training (Basic Training, and job-school are considered active duty for Guard and Reserve personnel, as well as active duty personnel). Some protections under the act extend for a limited time beyond active duty discharge or release but are tied to the discharge/release date. Additionally, some of the Act’s protections extend to the members’ dependents. RIGHT TO BE FREE FROM DISCRIMINATION AND RETALIATION If you: are a past or present member of the uniformed service; ...

...Litigation Hold Notice To: Employees of Premier College, Who May Have Relevant Information From: Department of Education Premier College Chief Information Officer Re: Litigation Hold Preservation of Relevant Information: Paper Documents and Electronically Stored Information Date: August 20, 2014 We are currently involved in a dispute involving state-specific testing and compliance procedures. The state of Florida alleges, among other things, that Premier College violated state-specific testing and compliance procedures. This is a putative class action that we intend to vigorously defend. During the course of litigation, it is important that Premier College is able to make its paper files and electronically stored information available to our own lawyers and, if discovery requests are issued to us, available to the lawyers representing the other parties in the case. It is crucial that you take affirmative steps to preserve both paper documents and electronically stored information that are relevant to this dispute and that are in your custody or control.

We request that you preserve paper records and electronically stored information, including voicemail, email, electronic calendars, financial spreadsheets, Word documents, and other information created and/or stored on your computer, relating to students of Premier College.

...Students’ reading choices should not be limited by a number, a letter or a color code. How refreshing to read this in Reading Nonfiction: Notice & Note Stances, Signposts, and Strategies by Kylene Beers and Robert E. Probst. Text selection for students is often driven by numbers or letters based on a test. The authors discussed in depth factors connected with readability, complexity and rigor. “Reducing text complexity to a formula based on sentence length and word frequency isn’t the solution. The next time someone requires that you use a Lexile number to match a child with a book, encourage a conversation about the efficacy of this as a sole measure.” Thank you for discussing text selection and the complexities that are a part of the process. Schools often strive for rigor and at times base it on the level of Lexile. “When districts tell us that they couldn’t use this text because it would be “too easy” and they must “raise the rigor,” we remind them that rigor is about relevance and not about a Lexile score.”...

...CAN a driver exempt himself from liability for injuring an infant passenger? This was the question raised in Buckpitt v. Oates.1 The plaintiff, who was seventeen years old, persuaded the defendant, who was a friend of the same age, to give him a lift in the defendant's car by promising to pay for the petrol. Before the journey began the plaintiff read, and understood, a notice in the car which said: " Warning. Passengers ride in this vehicle at their own risk. Neither the owner nor the driver will be liable for loss of life or personal injury or other loss or damage howsoever caused. Passengers are not covered by insurance." The plaintiff was injured when the defendant negligently crashed into a wall, and he brought an action for damages. The case came before John Stephenson J., who held that the plaintiff was bound by the notice. Although in his view the plaintiff's infancy would have saved him from being bound by the notice had it been part of a contract of carriage between the parties,2 he could find no contract in this case; and instead he concluded that the notice had made the plaintiff volens as to the defendant's negligence, because infancy was no bar to volenti non fit injuria and the plaintiff had here appreciated and accepted the risk.3 Accordingly he found for the defendant. This decision is open to question on a number of grounds: (1) It seems strange that an infant cannot be volens if he contracts not to sue in respect of injury, but will be so if he merely agrees...

We have appointed a new Australia editor, Wendy Frew, who will be looking to broaden the range of stories we cover and offer in-depth features on selected stories. The BBC is a truly global news provider, and we believe we can put Australian news in its wider regional and global context. We are launching a new Twitter account, @BBCNewsAus, which will be key to our news coverage on social media. And we have improved the navigation at the top of some pages to make it easier to find Australian content. We're making the changes because Australia is home to one of our largest and most loyal audiences, and we want the BBC News website to better serve their interests and expectations. The changes are also part of a wider BBC commitment to Australia, which includes a redesigned BBC.com homepage for Australian readers, with a new layout and video player. The BBC will also be producing a series of programmes called Australia Direct to air on BBC World News throughout the upcoming G20 summit. We would be interested to hear what you think of the changes. UPDATE : Thank you for your comments so far. I should have made it clearer that all our expanded Australian coverage will be paid for by advertising, which appears on...

...parties (e.g. the landlord is constantly disturbing the tenant, the tenant is in arrears of rent). No matter what the reason for the termination, the process is always the same. The person ending the tenancy must serve a notice of termination on the other party and that notice must comply with the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 in terms of the content of the notice itself and the amount of notice (i.e. what period of time until the dwelling is to be vacated) given. The content of the notice will depend on whether it is served by the landlord or tenant, the length of the tenancy and the reason for the termination. Where a tenancy that was entered into for a specific period (i.e. a fixed term tenancy) comes to the end of that period, a notice of termination does not have to be issued. If that period was 6 months or more and the tenant intends to continue in occupation, he/she must inform the landlord of that intention between one and three months before the expiry date. Note: It is an offence to purport to serve an invalid notice of termination and then act in reliance on it in a way that adversely affects the interests of the person on whom it was served. 2. Termination of a Tenancy by a Landlord Valid notice In order to be valid a notice of termination must: • Be in writing...
