这个法案是CT的参议员Lieberman提出的,这个法案总共三个部分:第一和第三部分都
不是关于绿卡,而是关于工作签证的,第二部分是关于EB类的绿卡,不过这个法案并没
有增加EB类的绿卡名额,而只是允许提前交I-485(交500美元处理费)和签发有效期为三

第一个句子不是独立的,所以,它是为第二个句子服务的。这个你同意吗?
In linguistics, a dependent clause (or a subordinate clause) is a clause
that augments an independent clause with additional information, but which
cannot stand alone as a sentence. Dependent clauses either modify the
independent clause of a sentence or serve as a component of it. Some
grammarians use the term subordinate clause as a synonym for dependent
clause. Other grammars use subordinate clause to refer only to adverbial
dependent clauses. There are also d... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Baseball版 - 棒球交易简介-5
下面主要谈谈reserve clause,free agency和arbitration。
所谓reserve clause,就是指球员在合同到期后,原球会仍然对球员拥有
一定的支配权。在一个理想的自由经济体系中,球员一旦合同到期,就
应该可以自由流动,不受原来球会的约束。对于其他职业来说,这个基本
上是成立的。但是在职业体育中,实际上却不是这样。在许多职业体育中,
原球会如果有意愿,都可以有一定的手段可以留住这名球员。这种权利就
叫做reserve clause。一个比较容易理解的例子就是足球的转会费。在
Bosman条款生效之前,即使球员和原球会合同已经到期,球员如果想离开
去和其他球会签约,原球会都有权向新球会索要一笔转会费。也就是说,
球员的流动并不是自由的,而是受到原球会制约的。
MLB的reserve clause由来已久,历史上多次球员和球会之间的法律纠纷都
是围绕这个条款而来的。这个以后我有机会再慢慢详细说明,总之,经过
多年的斗争,现在MLB的reserve clause已经被大大削弱,但仍然是球员
交易中一个重要的组成部分。

织毛衣,动能打飞机,还要忍气吞声,吃各种小妖精和小麋鹿的醋。
每年到了圣诞节,圣诞奶奶就要给老头子穿上漂亮的红棉袄,装满礼物袋,目送他出去
跟麋鹿出去嘿嘿嘿嘿,吼吼吼吼。这是一种什么样的体验?
1889年,女诗人凯瑟琳·李·贝茨KatherineLee Bates写了一首叫做《圣诞奶奶的雪橇
之旅》
(Goody Santa Claus on a Sleigh Ride)的长诗。这首诗是圣诞奶奶第一次发牢骚,控
诉了圣诞老人一年到头不干活,好吃懒做。虽然我能想到最浪漫的事就是和你一起慢慢
变老,但是一年到头你都不刮胡子还越来越胖,圣诞树也不管,你就别怪我说你懒。这
首诗的结尾,圣诞奶奶说服了圣诞老人不要再把她留在家里,今年过节她陪他一起出去
送礼物。
女诗人贝茨因为这... 阅读全帖

Hi,everyone. I have a question regarding a clause of an standard lease
agreement.
This type of agreement is between shopping centres and its tenants. Shopping
centres usually charge tenants percentage rent which is a certain percent
of its tenancts monthly gross sales. The agreement defines gross sales in
its schedules.
There is one clause which is pretty misleading. Different people have
different understanding on this clause.
The clause is as follows:

呵呵,一帮不了解美国法律系统的wsn总是以为美国只有一部宪法用了200年。
1,美国为什么一直都用一部宪法?美国之所以能这么做是因为美国是common law也就是
案例法。除了正儿八经的修正案以外(现在提修正案已经很困难了)美国最高法院的没一
个跟宪法相关的判例都是对宪法的修改,美国宪法原文很宽泛很宽泛。比如美国宪法里
面有一条叫做Necessary and Proper Clause,就是说国会可以制定任何法律来实行宪法
里面提到过的条文只要这些法律necessary and proper,这个你就充分的发挥你的想象
空间吧。然后比如Commerce Clause,本意是说国会有权管理州与州之间的商业,但后来
历史上由于最高法院法官组成不同,对这个很模糊的概念的解释变了4次,后来变成连你
在家里种小麦都可以管,因为这个可能影响到interstate commerce。总之,美国宪法之
所以能用200年,只是因为它原文很宽泛,然后因为是案例法,所以实际上美国宪法是每
天都在变,都在修改,像对那个commerce clause的解读,100多年前和现在是完全不同
