		RIF has competed for and was recently awarded a Star School grant from the Department of Education to support a partnership focused on building new literacy-focused training methods and content to be delivered electronically to a variety of audiences.
		In addition, RIF is helping prevent functional illiteracy by instilling in young people in their formative years the desire to read and the desire to read and thus contributing to the likelihood of their completing their education.
		Although RIF is not providing formal and direct literacy services to low-literacy parents, the programs RIF provides for their families instruct and inspire them to actively pursue reading and education for themselves and their children.

	American Federation of Government Employees, Local 2119 v. Cohen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The government moved to dismiss the suit under Rule 12(b)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, for lack of standing to enforce the statutes at issue.
		Insofar as the appellants assert an interest different from the citizenry-at-large, that interest--the protection of government employees whose job opportunities would be impaired because of contracting out--is close to the very bureaucratic interest, in expansion of government, that Congress sought to restrain in all of these statutes.
		Second, the government argues that, as with the procurement and contracting statutes, the employees' interest in enforcing the Arsenal Act is merely derivative of Rock Island's, and therefore not sufficient to support standing.

	The Rif Mountains, Morocco - Chasing the Lizard’s Tail
		The Rif is a rugged land, unspoilt, a land of dreamy interlocking valleys, gorse-filled gullies, and rippling streams delineated by pink ribbons of blossoming oleander, or else whispering reed veils.
		There was that starlit trek in the Rif a few years back, dogged by that idiotic Dutch hippie who'd persisted in using flashlights in range of army checkpoints, and then the supposedly reliable contact who disappeared with the whole caboodle.
		The leader of the rebels was Abd el-Krim, the 'Wolf of the Rif' and now a national hero, whose force of irregulars succeeded for over a year in keeping the might of the Spanish army at bay.

	USCFL - Who rules Syria? Bashar Al Assad and the Alawi Barons.
		How Bashar manages his relationship with the heads of the army and security services will be key to his survival and the stability of Syria in the coming years.
		Following the death of heir apparent Basil al-Assad in 1994, the president began laying the groundwork for Bashar’s succession, incrementally removing those commanders believed to be opposed to a hereditary succession or who, because of their seniority, might be expected to harbor ambitions of their own.
		Muhammad Nassif (‘Alawi), who served as de facto head of the GID under a series of non-’Alawi directors in the 1990s and was considered a pillar of the regime under Hafiz al-Asad, is currently deputy chief of the GID, though his influence appears to have waned.

		A government's use of taxes and expenditures to influence the health of an economy; e.g., to increase spending and reduce taxes to simulate demand whenever there is a recession; and conversely, to reduce spending and increase taxes to reduce demand whenever there is inflation.
		When city and county governments push for greater freedom in adopting services and programs as they see fit by asking their state governments for home rule; about half of the states allow home rule, severely limited the possibilities for reform in the others.

	Smith, Currie & Hancock LLP - Newsletters
		A downsizing management team consisting of HR staff, heads of affected units and other respected managers might be the best choice to develop these RIF policies and procedures.
		To ensure fair RIF policies, employers should establish specific procedures for selecting which employees to terminate, ensure that the criteria used to select employees for layoff are defensible, and document the reasons for selecting particular employees.
		Although downsizing may be unavoidable in certain instances, the employer that carefully plans a RIF, implements it in a fair and consistent fashion, and interacts with affected employees in an honest and compassionate manner can prevent many of the problems normally associated with these otherwise traumatic events.

		Dumas said from March to July, 11,500 persons will be employed on some 400 projects nationwide and the URP will be “moving from what has been a purely maintenance programme to a construction programme,” with 7,500 of the 11,500 being involved in the new construction element.
		Local Government is part of the implementation of that programme.
		Under the RIF, Dumas revealed that releases have been made to each local government corporation that would allow every councillor, regardless of political affliation, access to monies for projects in his or her electoral district.

		Sometimes the threat of implementing a RIF is sufficient to gain management's support for a series of practical outplacement activities, because they recognize how difficult it is to control the outcome of layoffs.
		As for buyouts, the mood of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee early this summer was not to grant governmentwide authority.
		A RIF can be as devastating to the workers who remain as it is to those who lose their jobs.

		In March 1972, to broaden the base of his government, Asad formed the National Progressive Front, a coalition of parties led by the Ba'ath Party, and elections were held to establish local councils in each of Syria's 14 governorates.
		In response to an attempted uprising by the brotherhood in February 1982, the government crushed the fundamentalist opposition centered in the city of Hama, leveling parts of the city with artillery fire and causing many thousands of dead and wounded.
		Beyond the financial sector, the Syrian Government has enacted major changes to rental and tax laws, and is reportedly considering similar changes to the commercial code and to other laws, which impact property rights.

		It is also totally unfair that in the event of a RIF the supervisors would get to say who stays or goes.

	Mountain Home News: Story: School district to RIF 60 employees
		Under the district's RIF policy a team of district officials and Mountain Home Education Association officials will sit down together to determine how and where cuts will be made, but the bulk of those who won't be offered contracts probably will fall under the "last hired, first fired" principle, LeFevre said.
		The combination of all those factors mean, excluding any further cuts from the legislature or holdbacks from the governor's office, that the district must trim $1.5 million from its budget.
		There also will probably be a dramatic increase in "pay as you play" costs for students involved in extracurricular activities, and not just sports, but after school music programs, debate, drama, etc., in which students will have to pay fees to help cover the costs of transportation to out-of-district events and other related expenses.

		They need you to contact your members of Congress and show your support of RIF programs, including your own, and the nearly 5 million children we expect to serve in the coming year.
		As it turns out, in FY 2001, Reading Is Fundamental will receive $23 million from the federal government for the Inexpensive Book Distribution Program, which represents approximately 70 percent of the RIF budget at the national level.
		While RIF claims that the federal money is well spent and local branches are responsible for content, it is unclear why the government has to pay the freight.

	Newsbrief: The Hash Fields of Morocco
		Alternative development programs have closed up shop, government authorities have thrown up their hands, and European hash heads have broken out in smiles as the Moroccan cannabis crop (which is known locally as kif) has exploded in recent years, according to a report this week in The Guardian (UK).
		Government efforts to repress the crop have proven ineffective -- smugglers measure distances by the number of bribes they have to pay -- and Moroccan officials pointed the finger at European consumers and governments.
		The Rif area is so dependent on the drug economy, he said, that if the bottom fell out of the cannabis market, it could turn to another illicit crop.

	History On Trial: 23 January 2005
		In August 2004 Muhammad Al-Zurqani, the former editor-in-chief of Al-Liwaa Al-Islami, the Egyptian government daily, declared on Egyptian television that "the Holocaust is a big lie." Author Rif'at Sayyed Ahmad, who had written an article in the daily, entitled "The Lie about the Burning of the Jews," was appearing on the same show.
		The prevalence of Arab Holocaust denial and anti-Semitism are a stark indication that despite the fact that a myriad of heads of state and their delegations gathered yesterday at Birkenau, history - particularly inconvenient history - remains a battleground.
		The writer, a member of the official American delegation to the Sixtieth Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz, is author most recently of History on Trial: My Day in Court with David Irving.

	Age Discrimination: HR Guide to Internet Resources from HR-Guide.Com
		Examples of employees covered under the executive exemption would be the head of a large local or regional operation or the head of certain large departments in company headquarters such as finance, marketing, legal, production and manufacturing.
		To make a prima facie case in a RIF suit the employee must establish (1) membership in the protected age group, (2) qualification to perform his or her current position and (3) evidence that the employer intended to discriminate on the basis of age in reaching the adverse employment decision.
		Although replacement is not an essential element of proof for the employee in a RIF case, where an employee is replaced by some one younger or where younger individuals already employed take over the discharged employee's duties, the inference is likely to be most negative.

		Some juveniles in zoos were tamed sufficiently to permit gentle petting, allowing their head to be scratched through the bars.

		Though the threat to sheep by Tasmanian wolves was greatly exaggerated, a bounty was put on their heads in 1888 by the Tasmanian government and between 1888 and 1914, more than 3,000 were shot and killed.
