  Wake-Up Wal-Mart: The Real Wal-Mart Facts
Wal-Mart's rapid expansion of Supercenters and Sam's Clubs has contributed to hundreds of vacant stores across the country.

  Wisconsin Association of Lakes Home
The Wisconsin Association of Lakes (WAL) is the only statewide organization working exclusively to protect and enhance the quality of Wisconsin’s 15,000 lakes.
Whether you boat, fish, swim, canoe, visit our lakes for their natural scenic beauty, or own property, our lakes are important to us all.
Unfortunately, our lakes face an increasing number of challenges: the threat of aquatic invasive species, changes in land use, water quality decline, stress on fish and wildlife habitat, and conflicts over how people relate to and use our waters.

 Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price (2005) (V)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Wal Mart has (apparantly) 1.2 million employees; surely Greenwald could have found abuse more meaty than the unsubstantiated complaints of individual vague accusations of discrimination.
The statistics relating to children of workers on medicaid speak for themselves, and the section about working conditions in China and Bangladesh is pretty shocking, and certainly would make me think twice about what I buy and where.
Ultimately though, reasoned debate this is not, demonisation it is. There is a deliberate failure to give Wal Mart the chance to put across their response.

 Wal-Mart Litigation Project
It was not an error for the trial court to order a remittitur of $100,000 of the $200,000 punitive damage award, since evidence suggested that Sam’s had safety programs and did not intend to injure the plaintiff.
It was not an error to exclude hearsay evidence that a Pepsi vendor informed Wal- Mart’s district manager that stacking the pallets three high was satisfactory.
Plaintiff claimed Wal- Mart should have disengaged the string to prevent customers from firing the bow without an arrow in place.

 Weighted Average Life - WAL
Once calculated, WAL tells how many years it will take to pay half of the outstanding principal.
The time weightings are based on the principal paydowns - the higher the dollar amount, the more weight that corresponding time period will have.
For example, if the majority of the repayment amount is in 10 years the WAL will be closer to 10 years.
