Centerville firm running scam, suit claims
"Immediate Cash Flow! Incredible Return on Investment! The Perfect Home Based Business!" proclaims Universal Advertising Inc. of Centerville in promoting its franchises.
"Bogus business opportunity," responds the Federal Trade Commission.
"Lacking a reasonable basis for each claim," adds the U.S. Department of Justice.

Buying a home? We’ve never had it so good
Previous generations never had it so good, and it is fatuous to suggest otherwise. Lets not kid ourselves about it or work ourselves up into a lather of panic. If youre worried about how your children might set up buying themselves a house, just remind yourself of how you did it in a crippled economy. Your children can get good jobs, earn a fair amount of money, work overseas, seek and find loans from at least four banks in Malta which compete with each other for the business, and buy cheap but good furniture to put in their new home. Best of all, the financial burden can be shared by two people, because now there are more earning opportunities for women and less social pressure for them to stay between four walls.

The struggle continues for King's dream
These days, racists don't burn crosses on front lawns in Connecticut the way they once did in 1966 to Ella Anderson, a black schoolteacher and then-president of the local NAACP. Restaurants and other public accommodations catering to "all-white" clientele are gone. There are men's rooms. And there are women's rooms — none of which have enough stalls. Public restrooms no longer bear signs over their entrances that read "negro" or "white-only."
And when you climb aboard a bus, you sit anywhere you please.
All of this represents civil rights progress achieved in the wake of Martin Luther King Jr. What more is there to accomplish?
"A lot of the overt vestiges of Jim Crowe laws and old-fashioned segregation are gone," observes .
(AFX UK Focus) 2006-12-22 19:09 GMT: Congress likely to raise minimum wage
WASHINGTON (AFX) - Imagine what it would be like to work without a pay raise for nearly 10 years. That's been the plight of some workers who for almost the past decade have been earning the federal minimum wage. Their last pay increase -- to $5.15 an hour -- came in 1997. There could be some relief in sight. When the Democrat-controlled 110th Congress convenes in early January, a top priority is boosting the federal minimum wage to $7.25 an hour. The increase is likely to be phased in, perhaps over 26 months.
Alice Laguerre is among the millions of workers now earning less than $7.25 an hour.
She makes $6.55 an hour driving cars headed for the auction blocks in Orlando, Fla., and says a boost in the federal minimum wage would help her build a nest egg for emergencies.
"I would be able to save more," says Laguerre, a part-time worker.
