CONTINUED ON PAGE 22B PAGE 2B BUSINESS / AROUND ALHAMBRA 11/2017 CALIFORNIA Federal overtime rule is really over A federal judge in Texas has struck down the federal overtime rule, putting an end to this controversial USINESS EPORT proposal from the prior administration that would have made over four million new workers eligible for B R overtime pay. The rule would have set a new federal salary threshold that must be met before an executive, INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE CALIFORNIA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE professional or administrative employee can be exempt from overtime. States and business groups chal- lenged the new salary threshold of $47,476 a year ($913 a week), which was more than double the existing federal salary test and also higher than California’s minimum salary test. This rule was set to go into effect in December of 2016. However, legal chal- lenges placed the rule on hold. On Aug. 31, U.S. District Judge Amos Mazzant granted summary judgment against the Depart- ment of Labor (DOL) in consolidated cases challenging the fed- eral overtime rule. The court held that the rule’s salary level was too high, exceeded the DOL’s authority and, thus, was invalid. U.S. Dept. of Labor seeks input on federal overtime exemp- tions As a result of the ruling stated above, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is seeking comments on the federal overtime rule, which defines who is exempt from minimum wage and overtime requirements under the Fair Labor and Standards Act (FLSA). While the federal government tinkers with the federal overtime rule, California employers should continue to follow the Califor- nia salary test to determine whether an employee can be classi- fied as exempt under the executive, administrative and profes- sional exemptions. In addition to the salary test, California em- ployees must meet a strict duties test to be classified as exempt. – Cal Chamber Contact: Gail Cecchettini Whaley Governor signs bills to ease housing crisis On Sept. 29, at a bill signing ceremony in San Francisco, Gov- ernor Edmund G. Brown Jr. signed three California Chamber of Commerce-supported bills to encourage local governments to ap- prove new housing projects. The CalChamber-supported bills ei- ther hold local governments accountable for meeting the housing elements of their plans or aim to combat the “not in my backyard” (NIMBY) resistance that can stall needed housing projects. AB 678 (Bocanegra; D-Pacoima) and SB 167 (Skinner; D-Berkeley) will provide some teeth to enforce the Housing Accountability Act and will properly require local agencies to substantiate their denial or conditional approval of much-needed projects, while AB 1515 (Daly; D-Anaheim) will provide an important tool to respond to unreasonable opposition by NIMBYs. The state is currently facing a significant housing crisis as the supply shortfall affects affordability at all levels. – Staff Contact: Louinda V.

  • Long Ago on Another World, Red and Blue Warriors Fought Continuously, Caught in a Stalemate. for the Sake of Settling Their Disp
    Long ago on another world, Red and Blue warriors fought continuously, caught in a stalemate. For the sake of settling their dispute, a neutral party named the Moderators intervened in the conflict to minimise the casualties and collateral. They decided to have select champions fight instead. These champions would be imbued with power, and set against each other. The winner of those champions would be the winner of the war. Additionally, to make sure it was fair and neutral, these champions would be selected from another unrelated race. They chose humanity. Now these Kämpfer’s clash in the shadows, unknown to the rest of humanity. In a few short days Natsuru, a normal boy who attends a school physically split in half according to gender, will find himself transformed into a Kämpfer. He is rightly shocked, as unfortunately for him Kämpfers are female. Luckily he is able to transform back, which lasts up until the next day when a gun held by another Kämpfer is rather rudely put against his head. And so the story begins. Have 1000CP to spend on the options below. ​ ​ Origins: You can choose your gender for free. Roll 1d3+15 for your age. ​ Student You will be starting off this jump as an ordinary student. There is little innately special about you, beyond the norm. You have a roof over your head, 3 meals a day, and a family that may or may not be still living in the same house as you. All in all, you are perfectly set to have a relaxing decade if you wished.

  • Winter Holiday Self-Care
    Winter Holiday Self-Care 2 Self-Care for the Winter Holiday Season Adapted from: http://www.lifecoachingcenterstone.org/self-care-for-the-holidays/ It would be great if each of us was able to experience the winter months as “the most wonderful time of the year.” The approach of the winter season often brings expectations of perfect family gatherings, holiday magic, and picture-perfect moments. Yet, we know that for many of us, idealized expectations can lead to frustration, loneliness, disappointment, anxiety, sadness and holiday blues. For those of us who may dread the winter holiday season, the reality of life simply contrasts too greatly with a fairy-tale dream –a dream that we carry ourselves, or that others have built for us, or that others carry for themselves. Question: What does the winter holiday season mean for you? Do you dread it? Look forward to it? Couldn’t care less? __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________

  • Sayuri Arai Dissertation Final Final Final
    © 2016 Sayuri Arai MEMORIES OF RACE: REPRESENTATIONS OF MIXED RACE PEOPLE IN GIRLS’ COMIC MAGAZINES IN POST-OCCUPATION JAPAN BY SAYURI ARAI DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Chapmpaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Clifford G. Christians, Chair Professor Cameron R. McCarthy Professor David R. Roediger, The University of Kansas Professor John G. Russell, Gifu University ABSTRACT As the number of mixed race people grows in Japan, anxieties about miscegenation in today’s context of intensified globalization continue to increase. Indeed, the multiracial reality has recently gotten attention and led to heightened discussions surrounding it in Japanese society, specifically, in the media. Despite the fact that race mixing is not a new phenomenon even in “homogeneous” Japan, where the presence of multiracial people has challenged the prevailing notion of Japaneseness, racially mixed people have been a largely neglected group in both scholarly literature and in wider Japanese society. My dissertation project offers a remedy for this absence by focusing on representations of mixed race people in postwar Japanese popular culture. During and after the U.S. Occupation of Japan (1945-1952), significant numbers of racially mixed children were born of relationships between Japanese women and American servicemen. American-Japanese mixed race children, as products of the occupation, reminded the Japanese of their war defeat. Miscegenation and mixed race people came to be problematized in the immediate postwar years. In the 1960s, when Japan experienced the postwar economic miracle and redefined itself as a great power, mixed race Japanese entertainers (e.g., models, actors, and singers) became popular.
