way 4 ways to follow the Dodgers other than on cable TV By www.scpr.org Published On :: Tue, 27 Mar 2018 13:04:00 -0700 File: A general view during player introductions before game one of the National League Division Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Mets at Dodger Stadium on Oct. 9, 2015 in Los Angeles.; Credit: Stephen Dunn/Getty Images Mike RoeDo you want to track the Dodgers as the new season gets underway, but either don't have cable or are at work during the game? Maybe you want to keep an eye on the boys in blue but have an office job that gives you checks in black and white, and you want to keep your bleeding red for your favorite team from sending your bank account into the red as well. Or maybe you just aren’t going to have access to a TV at the time. Here are four ways to check the Dodgers out this season. 1. Track what’s happening with MLB.com’s free Gameday service Want to see what’s going on as if the Dodgers game was a video game? You have to pay if you want to watch video (with alternate angles!) or listen to audio with Major League Baseball's MLB.tv service — but you can watch virtual avatars simulating the game with MLB Gameday for free. Just visit MLB.com/scores, then click on the Gameday button beneath the game you want to follow. Or, you can keep it more old school by tracking scores on the scores page — alongside video highlights. 2. Follow what’s going on on Twitter Want to keep an eye on things but don’t want to stare at a streaming video feed? You can follow what’s happening with Twitter. The Dodgers themselves tweet highlights and results at @Dodgers, plus you can do a search for “Dodgers” or track what’s happening on various popular hashtags, including #Dodgers, #ThinkBlue and #ITFDB (It’s Time For Dodgers Baseball). 3. Listen to the radio, over the air or online The official Dodgers radio broadcaster in L.A. is AM 570 L.A. Sports. As noted above, you can also pay to listen to audio from MLB.tv — but the service isn't available for local, "in-market" games, which are blacked out as part of their contracts with local broadcasters. The Dodgers broadcasts are also available in Spanish on 1020 AM KTNQ. 4. Stream ESPN on your computer, phone or tablet ESPN lets you watch the opening day game and others throughout the season online... well, some of you, at least. Due to various cable company deals and other red tape, you have to already be a cable subscriber — sorry, cord cutters — but most major cable company subscribers can log in and stream the Dodgers online, or using ESPN's mobile apps available on iOS and Android. That also means you can find a friend who has cable, and team up with them to watch online — or just hang out at their place for the foreseeable future. Many other Dodgers games throughout the season will be on SportsNet L.A., but you have to subscribe to Charter Spectrum, Time Warner, or Bright House in the L.A. area to get this channel. However, five of the games this season will be shown on KTLA, expanding your options for potentially checking the Dodgers out. You can find out more in the SportsNet L.A. FAQ. How are you tracking the Dodgers? Let us know in the comments or by tweeting us at @KPCC. This story has been updated; it was originally published in 2013.

way One way businesses are avoiding health care coverage for employees By www.scpr.org Published On :: Tue, 20 Aug 2013 12:31:32 -0700 Business Update with Mark LacterBusinesses are cutting back on hours to avoid having to provide health care coverage under the new Affordable Care Act. Steve Julian: Business analyst Mark Lacter, who's affected here? Mark Lacter: Thirty hours a week is the magic number for workers to be considered full time under the new law. If a business has 50 or more full-time employees, health care coverage has to be provided. Except that a lot business owners say that the additional cost is going to be a financial killer, so instead, some of them have been cutting back hours to below that 30-hour threshold. More than 200,000 Californians are at risk of losing hours from the health care law - that according to one study. Julian: What kinds of businesses are doing this? Lacter: Restaurant chains have received much of the attention, but the city of Long Beach, as an example, is going to reduce hours for a couple of hundred of its workers. And, last week came word that the L.A.-based clothing chain Forever 21 will cut some of its full-time employees to a maximum 29-and-a-half hours a week, and classify them as part time. That touched off an outcry on the Internet - people were saying that Forever 21 was being unfair and greedy - though the company says that only a small number of employees are affected, and that its decision has nothing to do with the Affordable Care Act. There's really no way to know - Forever 21 is a private company, which means it's not obligated to disclose a whole lot. What we do know is that those people will be losing their health care coverage. Julian: And, the ultimate impact on businesses and workers? Lacter: Steve, you're looking at several years before the picture becomes clear. Here in California, workers not eligible for health care through their employer can get their own individual coverage, and if their income levels are not over a certain amount, they'd be eligible for Medicaid. And, let's not forget many businesses already provide coverage for their employees. So, lots of rhetoric - but, not many conclusions to draw from, which does make you wonder why so many business owners are unwilling to at least give this thing a chance. Just doesn't seem to be much generosity of spirit for their workers, not to mention any recognition that if people can go to a doctor instead of an emergency room we'd probably all be better off. Julian: Health care is far from the only controversy for Forever 21, true? Lacter: In some ways, it's one of the biggest Southern California success stories. Don Chang emigrated here in 1981 from Korea at the age of 18, opened his first store in Highland Park three years later (it was called Fashion 21), and he never looked back. Today, revenues are approaching $4 billion. But, the guy must have some pretty hefty legal bills because his company has been accused of all kinds of workplace violations. The lawsuits alleged that workers preparing items for the Forever 21 stores didn't receive overtime, that they didn't get required work breaks, that they received substandard wages, and that they worked in dirty and unsafe conditions - sweatshop conditions, essentially. Julian: Are most of their claims settled out of court? You don't hear much about them. Lacter: They are, which means there's usually a minimal amount of media coverage. If a privately held company decides to keep quiet by not releasing financial results or other operational information, there's not likely to be much of a story - unlike what happens with a company like Apple, which is always under scrutiny. Sometimes, plaintiffs will try to organize class-action suits, but that's extremely tough when you're dealing with low-wage workers who are often very reluctant to get involved because of their legal status. And, let's not forget that Forever 21 - like any low-cost retailer - is simply catering to the demand for cheap, stylish clothes that are made as quickly as possible. Julian: I guess you can't make that happen when wages and benefits are appreciably higher than your competition. Lacter: The next time you walk into a Forever 21 store and wonder how prices can be so reasonable, that's how.

way Freeways in Los Angeles still the most congested in the nation By www.scpr.org Published On :: Tue, 12 Nov 2013 13:06:57 -0800 Business Update with Mark LacterYesterday may have been a holiday on paper, but if you were navigating LA's major freeways, there was no sign people had the day off. Steve Julian: Business analyst Mark Lacter, is this more evidence that Southern California traffic getting worse? Mark Lacter: Steve, L.A. continues to be the most clogged-up city in the U.S. - according to something called the TomTom Traffic Index - with commuters caught up in delays, on average, 35 percent of the time. Or, to put it another way, L.A. commuters are in congestion up to 40 minutes of each hour they're driving. The worst time of the week to commute is Thursday night; that's when there's congestion more than 80 percent of the time. Monday morning commutes are the lightest. Julian: After L.A., where should you not live if congestion bugs you? Lacter: The next worst cities in the U.S. are San Francisco, Honolulu, Seattle, and San Jose. Now, the Census Bureau comes up with its own commuting surveys, and if you compare the most recent numbers with those back in 2000, you'll see that things aren't all that different. Matter of fact, the percentage of commuters driving alone to work actually increased a little over the last decade to 72 percent, while the percentage of those carpooling has declined. Julian: What about public transit? Lacter: Well, the numbers are up slightly from 2000, but only to 7.3 percent of all commuters. So, even assuming that the number inches up in the next couple of years when the Expo Line extends into Santa Monica, it's still a smallish piece of the pie. And, since many of the other public transit projects being planned are decades away from being completed, those numbers might not change much. One other thing, Steve: less than 1 percent of all L.A. commuters bike to work, which would throw cold water on the idea that biking in L.A. is becoming a popular way of getting to the office. Julian: People just prefer commuting by car… Lacter: It remains the most convenient way of getting around - despite the congestion. New car sales are up 14 percent through the first nine months of the year in Southern California. Add to that are generally affordable gas prices (they've been especially low in the last few weeks). In other parts of the world, congestion is considered a good thing because it means that the economy is doing well. Which explains that while L.A. is the most congested city in the U.S., it doesn't rank among the 10 around the world. On that front, Moscow is tops, followed by Istanbul, and Rio de Janeiro. Julian: What about driverless cars? Lacter: Well, these vehicles hold the most promise for reducing accidents, lowering travel times, and improving fuel economy - and you don't have to give up your car. Actually, a lot of the technology is already in place - that includes stuff like radar-based cruise control, and devices that keep you at a safe distance from the car in front of you. The trick, of course, is taking these individual capabilities and integrating them into an entirely driverless car. Several car companies say they could be ready to start selling by 2020, with Google saying that its car could be ready even sooner. Julian: Is that realistic? Lacter: Who knows? But even if the dates can be met - and that's a big if, considering how complex these systems are - legislatures will have to determine, among other things, whether vehicles can be fully autonomous (meaning that you can curl up and take a nap while the computer is driving by itself). Or, whether they will only be semi-autonomous, which would be like an airline crew using automatic pilot, but always prepared to take over the controls. Julian: Is that a liability issue? Lacter: Yes - if something does go wrong, who will get the blame? The owner of the vehicle? The carmaker? The suppliers of the car companies? These questions might take years to get resolved in the courts - and even then, it could be years before the percentage of these vehicles on the road is large enough to truly have an impact. But, considering that most commuters aren't willing to give up their cars, this would seem to be the most exciting, most desirable idea. One day.

way Financing Milestone Paves Way for Next Phase in Gold Project Development By www.streetwisereports.com Published On :: Tue, 12 Nov 2024 00:00:00 PST Source: Streetwise Reports 11/12/2024 NexGold Mining Corp. (NEXG.V:TSXV; NXGCF:OTCQX; TRC1.F:FRA)and Signal Gold Inc. have successfully closed their previously announced oversubscribed and upsized concurrent financing. Read more as NexGolds acquisition of Signal Gold sets the stage for near-term production with combined resources and capital driving project development.NexGold Mining Corp. (NEXG.V:TSXV; NXGCF:OTCQX; TRC1.F:FRA) and Signal Gold Inc. have successfully closed their previously announced oversubscribed and upsized concurrent financing, generating a total of US$18.5 million. Initially disclosed in joint announcements from both companies on October 10 and October 23, 2024, this financing is part of a larger plan in which NexGold will acquire all shares of Signal Gold to combine both companies' gold projects to create a near-term gold developer. The financing involved two components. The first was a flow-through (FT) unit private placement by NexGold, which raised CA$8.085 million through the sale of 10,106,250 FT units at CA$0.80 per unit. Each unit includes one flow-through common share and half of one purchase warrant, allowing the holder to buy an additional non-flow-through share at CA$1.05 for the next two years. In the second component, Signal Gold's private placement of subscription receipts yielded CA$10.45 million by issuing 120,075,840 receipts at CA$0.08705 each. These receipts will convert into Signal units once specific escrow release conditions are met, including completion of the acquisition. Each unit consists of one common share and half a purchase warrant, allowing the holder to acquire additional shares for CA$0.11818 over two years. The net funds from this financing will be used to retire debt, fund the exploration and development of both companies' gold projects - including NexGold's Goliath gold complex in Ontario and Signal's Goldboro project in Nova Scotia - and for general corporate purposes. The gross proceeds from FT units will go toward qualified exploration expenses for NexGold's projects, with renunciation planned by December 31, 2024, as per Canadian tax requirements. Investor interest included an acquisition by a Sprott Asset Management sub-advised fund, which purchased 2.5 million FT units for CA$2 million, bringing Sprott's holdings to 11.43% of NexGold's issued shares (14.95% on a partially diluted basis). NexGold also extended an investor awareness agreement with i2i Marketing Group, providing up to six months of marketing services for CA$250,000 to increase investor visibility. Gold Rush Gold's surge to the US$2,800 mark due to a "perfect storm" of factors, according to an October 29 report from Kitco. Gary Wagner explained that this historic rise, approximately 35% this year, was driven by geopolitical tensions, anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts, consistent central bank demand, and U.S. political uncertainty in the run-up to the presidential election. Chen Lin offered a positive outlook on NexGold, noting heightened investor interest following recent updates, including expanded financing and merger plans. Wagner noted that "geopolitical, political conflicts" and "uncertainties about the outcome of the upcoming presidential election" were critical components, with emerging market central banks increasing their gold reserves to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar. On October 30, LiveMint highlighted gold's global appeal. The article mentioned how central banks continue to expand their gold reserves, with net buying reaching 337 tonnes in Q3 2023. This marks a near-record level, according to the World Gold Council. Escalating geopolitical tensions, especially in the Middle East, have also led investors to seek gold as a safe haven, pushing prices upward. In addition, strong economic data in the U.S., such as job growth and consumer spending, has affected expectations around Federal Reserve policies. These, in turn, have indirectly influenced gold. By November 4, Egon von Greyerz, in his analysis of the global financial system, emphasized gold as a reliable store of value. He argued that "gold has always stood as a protector" during economic downturns, describing the asset as "the best-performing asset class in this century." Von Greyerz asserted that gold's continued strength could be attributed to its resistance to the "destruction of fiat money," making it an essential wealth-preserving asset in an increasingly unstable financial environment. The Catalysts Pushing NexGold Forward NexGold's acquisition of Signal Gold is expected to accelerate its growth as a mid-tier gold producer. According to NexGold's September 2024 investor presentation, this financing supports the ongoing development of the Goliath Gold Complex in Northern Ontario, which holds a combined measured and indicated gold resource of over 2.1 million ounces. Additionally, Signal's Goldboro project in Nova Scotia adds strategic value with historical production potential and significant exploration upside. The Goliath project benefits from robust infrastructure, an approved environmental assessment, and a promising pre-feasibility study indicating a post-tax NPV of CA$336 million at US$1,750/oz gold. With this acquisition, the combined entity is expected to leverage its enhanced capital position to pursue further exploration and optimization, aiming for near-term production and establishing a solid platform for growth and consolidation in the Canadian gold sector. What Are Experts Saying? Ron Stewart, a mining analyst at Red Cloud Securities, maintained a Speculative Buy rating on NexGold with a target currently Under Review in his September analysis. Stewart stated that the merger with Signal Gold offered NexGold an accretive pathway to growth by adding the Goldboro project's resources to its portfolio. He noted that the combined assets of NexGold and Signal would form a "multi-asset company with over 6 million ounces in gold resources," which he described as synergistic and favorable for shareholders. Stewart anticipated the merger would close in Q4 2024, with upcoming catalysts including the Goliath Feasibility Study in Q1 2025 and a potential construction decision for Goliath in H2 2025. [OWNERSHIP_CHART-1961] In the October 24 edition of What is Chen Buying? What is Chen Selling? Chen Lin offered a positive outlook on NexGold, noting heightened investor interest following recent updates, including expanded financing and merger plans. Lin's analysis aligned with Stewart's views on the company's growth potential, highlighting that, with the combined projects and new funding, NexGold is well-positioned for substantial operational growth and asset value expansion in the years ahead. Ownership and Share Structure The company notes management and insiders own 3.4% of NexGold. Institutions own 17%. Strategic investors own 37.4%. Frank Guistra owns 10.1%. On a partially diluted basis, Sprott owns 14.95%. Extract owns 14%. First Mining owns 4.3%. Matrix owns 1.9%, and Teck own 1.9%. NexGold has 76 million shares and a market cap of CA$57.16 million.

way CJS Noon Lecture Series | Tyrannical Tigers and Endangered Cats: Why Are the Korean Scholar-Bureaucrats Always So Important in Modern Japan?

This webinar is free and open to the public, but registration is required. Once you've registered, the joining information will be sent to your email. Register for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/RmN4G The Korean scholar-bureaucrats (yangban) have been drawing public attention among Japanese intellectuals since the beginning of the 20th century. This lecture reviews how Japanese magazines represented yangban, tracing how their image changed from the evil noblemen that kept Korean society stagnant to the graceful embodiers of vanishing authentic Korean culture. Both these images, and even the transition from one to the other, were driven by a Japanese version of orientalism. Shimpei Cole Ota is a sociocultural anthropologist trained both in Seoul National University (ABD, 2003) and Osaka University (Ph.D., 2007). His basic question focuses on what brings drastic changes to societies and cultures, especially before and after modernization, liberalization, and globalization in South Korea and Korean America.
