  • BRENDA LEE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” Newspaper Decatur, IL
    BRENDA LEE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” newspaper Decatur, IL. © 2003 Country Music Hall Of Famer, Brenda Lee, will bring her vibrant vocals to Nashville North USA on Saturday, November 20 at 5 p.m. and again at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $23.50 and avail- able through the Nashville North USA box office or by calling 287-2103. Country and pop star Brenda Lee has been rockin’ music fans around the world for over four decades with such chart- topping hits as,“Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” “I’m Sorry,” “The Crying Game,” “Nobody Wins” and “Big Four Poster Bed.” “I loved every song I ever recorded,” Brenda Lee said during a recent phone interview. “If I had not, I could not have sung them.” The songstress was born Brenda Mae Tarpley, the second of four children to parents Ruben and Grayce, in a Atlanta, Georgia hospital charity ward. Destined to sing her way out of an impoverished childhood, the young vocalist was first introduced to the music business at age five when she won first place at a local talent show with a touching rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.” Her father, a carpenter and semi-professional baseball player, was killed in a construc- tion accident when Brenda was only eight years old. In order to support the family, her mother went to work in a cotton mill while Brenda began singing to supplement the family income. Launching her professional singing career at age eleven on entertainer Red Foley’s popular weekly television show, “Ozark Jubilee,” provided a recording contract and financial relief for the struggling family.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • The Case for Individual Audit Partner Accountability
    The Case for Individual Audit Partner Accountability Colleen Honigsberg* Despite repeated regulatory interventions, accounting failures continue to persist in companies around the world. In this Article, I explain why regulatory oversight, private enforcement, and firm-level reputational sanctions are unlikely to induce accountants to take optimal levels of care when auditing corporate financials. Instead, our best chance for improving audit quality lies in establishing a market for individual audit partners’ brands—a market that can hold individual auditors responsible for their mistakes. The Article begins by identifying four key benefits to this approach. First, forcing auditors to be publicly associated with any audit failures occurring on their watch will induce them to increase their effort in order to avoid the stigma of failure. Second, now that a significant portion—frequently more than half—of audit hours are performed overseas, holding a single individual publicly accountable for any audit failures will improve monitoring of auditors in other jurisdictions. Third, in light of significant evidence of variation in the quality of audit partners—even partners within the same firm—exposing that heterogeneity will empower members of audit committees and investors to choose auditors more carefully. Finally, commoditizing individual auditors could increase industry competition without the need for aggressive regulatory action. The Article then argues that, in order to spur the development of a market in auditor reputation, lawmakers should encourage the development of Auditor Scorecards. To do so, regulators should require the disclosure of additional auditor-level information and ensure useful information is provided through enforcement actions. Although there are costs to these changes, those costs are likely to be outweighed by giving investors the information they need to develop a common Scorecard for auditor quality.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Articles by an authorized administrator of Alabama Law Scholarly Commons. BLACK MARKET LAW FIRMS Casey E.Faucont In business and in competition, value exists in strikingfirst. Accountants, the so- called hawks of the professional world, have made the first move. In September 2017, the global accountinggiant PwC opened a law firm in Washington, D.C. called ILC Legal. ILC Legal not only provides legal services on non-domestic matters, but also acts as a multidisciplinaryprovider (MDP) and offers other professional services, such as tax-planning, business consulting, and marketing, throughout its ninety-country network. In June 2018, Deloitte quickly followed suit, the second of the Big Four accountingfirms to enter the U.S. MDP market, partneringwith a U.S. immigration law firm in San Francisco. With accountants now having the 'first mover" advantage, the legal profession must respond. Restricting any competitive response are the legal profession's current ethical rules. Two weaknesses in the legal profession's integrity system-the self-regulatory market monopoly over legal services and the ethical treatment of all lawyering acts under a unified profession of law-have restricted collaborativeinnovations between lawyers and non-lawyers.

And if you look historically right through the present day its social movements, movements for social justice, movements for peace, for democracy invariably popular music has played a large role in communicating ideas through songs, popular songs, just sort of unifying people, bringing people together. It has a very rich important tradition and legacy that still exists today. But even though music is the popular medium, it's the people's medium, it really isn't the people's medium in our society today, it's the property of four or five companies who have inordinate control over what sort of music gets produced and what sort of music doesn't and it made it much more difficult for it to be the people's medium and this is the problem we face.
