Some Commonly Asked Questions Regarding the Lemon Law

When your car breaks down, you might refer to it as a "lemon." However, there's a big difference between a car that occasionally behaves like a lemon and a car that meets the legal definition of your State's lemon law. Most people think that a car that has numerous problems while still under warranty is a legal lemon. However, the Lemon Law varies from state to state, and what qualifies as a lemon in one state might not qualify as a lemon in another. Also, many people do not know that there is a federal lemon law that has a more relaxed standard than the statute. To find out if you're driving a lemon, you should consult with a Lemon Law attorney or review the Lemon Law statutes for your state. However, if you simply want basic information regarding Lemon Law, the following is list of frequently asked questions that may help you out.

- Question 1: What is the legal definition of a lemon?

Each state has different legal criteria for establishing vehicles as lemons. However, a new vehicle that is repaired four or more times within the first year and still continues to suffer from the same defect generally achieves lemon status. In most states, the recurring problem must be something that significantly reduces the vehicle's use, market value or presents a safety hazard. There is also a federal lemon law which can provide compensation in many instances when a vehicle does not meet the definition of the state lemon law.

- Question 2: How do I know if I have a lemon?

Again, if your vehicle is under warranty and is repaired four or more times for a persistent problem that significantly reduces its use, market value or presents a safety hazard, you probably have a lemon. However, in some cases, a safety hazard that cannot be resolved with only one repair qualifies a car as a lemon. For conversation's sake, a car that breaks down or has a malfunctioning transmission would most likely qualify as a lemon due to decreased use, market value and even safety, while a car that failed to brake properly would qualify as a lemon due to a safety hazard and market value.

- Question 3: Do I need an Attorney if I have a lemon?

If the dealer is not being helpful and your calls or letters to the manufacturer are not being answered, you may want to avoid aggravating yourself further and wasting time. If you fail, you will have wasted precious time if you then have to hire an attorney. Hiring an attorney generally serves to expedite the compensation process.

- Question 4: Will I be compensated for attorney's fees?

By using a combination of the state and federal lemon law you can generally recover attorney's fees if your case is successful. However, you need to also pay attention to the type of Agreement you have with your attorney as that will govern how attorneys' fees are handled between you and the attorney. Also, make you should be aware that some states lemon laws require you to pay the manufacturer's attorney's fees under certain circumstances if your suit is unsuccessful.

- Question 5: Can leased cars, leased cars, motor homes and motorcycles be lemons?

By using a combination of the state and federal lemon law you can generally recover for leases cars as well as purchased cars. Some states also protect used cars, although under different statutes than apply to new cars. Most states cover the drive train of motor homes but not the dwelling portion of a motor home. Only a few states protect motorcycles. In the event that your vehicle isn't protected by state lemon law, you still have rights under the Uniform Commercial Code and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, provided that your vehicle came with a written warranty.

- Question 6: How will I be compensated if I own a lemon car?

Under most state's laws you generally have the option of either receiving a new vehicle that is similar in price, expected performance and style to your current vehicle or receiving a full refund of your vehicle's purchase price, minus a mileage based allowance. In addition, you may also be reimbursed for various collateral costs in either case.

How to Find Death Records in Any County - Deceased Records Search

You need to know how to find death records in any county, if you're going to have any success with your search. For better or for worse, the government has decided that breaking down deceased record into small, county sized chunks is the most efficient means of dealing with the problem.

This used to make sense, back before the computer age. You'd need that kind of information kept locally so that it was accessible by the people who actually needed. It also served the secondary purpose of making sure the information wasn't gathered in one place, which would have left it vulnerable to fire and other destruction.

Fortunately, there are some things you can do to help your deceased records search move along:

Get All The Information You Can Beforehand

The more you know about the person whose records you're searching for, the easier time you're going to have finding the information. The bare minimum is their full name, and things like social security number, last known address and other information will make it easier.

Know What You Want To Know

Are you looking for a death certificate? Or do you want to know where the deceased is buried? All of the above? You need to know and be able to describe what you want you want to know before the next step.

Call The Courthouse

The county court is usually the place where all the records are available, so the simplest method is call and tell them exactly what you're looking for and who you need to talk to get it. This may require some phone tag before you succeed.

Search Online

Of course, you won't actually need to know how to find death records in any county if you're willing to spend a little money. For a nominal fee, you access private databases that compile this information and get what you want in less than thirty seconds.

Build Your Business with Travel Incentives

Everyone knows that nothing closes a sale better than a free bonus. The problem is, selecting the right bonuses can be time consuming and expensive, plus the extra shipping costs can eat away at profit margins. That's why travel incentives are the perfect solution for both Internet-based and physical businesses.

Travel incentives are a win-win business giveaway that you can use to close sales, reward frequent buyers, or offer as incentives for responding to upsells, cross-sells, or membership renewal campaigns.

Travel incentives are typically presented as certificates which the bearer can redeem for air travel, cruises, hotel stays, or whatever other travel opportunity is offered on the travel incentive coupon.

One of the best features of travel incentive coupons is their low cost. Business owners can purchase as few or as many travel coupons as they want. Although they are inexpensive to purchase, they have a very high perceived value from the customer's point of view. After all, everyone knows how expensive it is to fly to an exciting vacation destination, or stay at a quality hotel. Travel incentive coupons look like they are worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Your customers will think that you have over-delivered, and they will be quite impressed.

A recent survey shows that over 80% of survey respondents said they would like to travel more if they could afford it. Imagine being able to offer a free business incentive that grants the wishes of so many people!

How Travel Incentives Work

Travel incentives are a life-saver to the hospitality industry. When hotels need to fill their rooms, or airline flights are empty, travel incentives bring in needed business.

Although the travel and rooms are free to the traveller, the industry knows that each vacationer will spend money on food, entertainment, souvenirs and other products and services while they are on vacation. Travel incentive coupons stimulate the economy and everyone benefits.

How to buy travel incentives

Travel incentive coupons are sold by authorized brokers. Although there are a lot of companies selling coupons, not all of them are authorized. The difference between buying from an authorized broker, and a fly-by-night one, is the quality of the travel experience that your customer receives. Nothing could be worse then to give your customer a gift that turns out to be a disaster. You can't afford to take chances.

The better authorized travel incentive brokers offer high-quality travel vacation vouchers that, for example, include 3 days and 2 night 3-star hotel accommodations and $500 spending certificates in some cities.

Most of the better brokers also offer travel incentive coupons that can be combined with other travel incentive coupons to create dream packages like 3-day getaways to 4 and 5-star hotels, including airfare, for less than the cost of dinner for two at your local pizza restaurant.

Don't waste your time and money offering bonuses that look like every other free offer out there. Give your customer the gift of free travel and watch your sales explode.

Economics - Psychology's Neglected Branch

"It is impossible to describe any human action if one does not refer to the meaning the actor sees in the stimulus as well as in the end his response is aiming at." --Ludwig von Mises

Economics - to the great dismay of economists - is merely a branch of psychology. It deals with individual behaviour and with mass behaviour. Many of its practitioners sought to disguise its nature as a social science by applying complex mathematics where common sense and direct experimentation would have yielded far better results.

The outcome has been an embarrassing divorce between economic theory and its subjects.

The economic actor is assumed to be constantly engaged in the rational pursuit of self interest. This is not a realistic model - merely a useful approximation. According to this latter day - rational - version of the dismal science, people refrain from repeating their mistakes systematically. They seek to optimize their preferences. Altruism can be such a preference, as well.

Still, many people are non-rational or only nearly rational in certain situations. And the definition of "self-interest" as the pursuit of the fulfillment of preferences is a tautology.

The theory fails to predict important phenomena such as "strong reciprocity" - the propensity to "irrationally" sacrifice resources to reward forthcoming collaborators and punish free-riders. It even fails to account for simpler forms of apparent selflessness, such as reciprocal altruism (motivated by hopes of reciprocal benevolent treatment in the future).

Even the authoritative and mainstream 1995 "Handbook of Experimental Economics", by John Hagel and Alvin Roth (eds.) admits that people do not behave in accordance with the predictions of basic economic theories, such as the standard theory of utility and the theory of general equilibrium. Irritatingly for economists, people change their preferences mysteriously and irrationally. This is called "preference reversals".

Moreover, people's preferences, as evidenced by their choices and decisions in carefully controlled experiments, are inconsistent. They tend to lose control of their actions or procrastinate because they place greater importance (i.e., greater "weight") on the present and the near future than on the far future. This makes most people both irrational and unpredictable.

Either one cannot design an experiment to rigorously and validly test theorems and conjectures in economics - or something is very flawed with the intellectual pillars and models of this field.

Neo-classical economics has failed on several fronts simultaneously. This multiple failure led to despair and the re-examination of basic precepts and tenets.

Consider this sample of outstanding issues:

Unlike other economic actors and agents, governments are accorded a special status and receive special treatment in economic theory. Government is alternately cast as a saint, seeking to selflessly maximize social welfare - or as the villain, seeking to perpetuate and increase its power ruthlessly, as per public choice theories.

Both views are caricatures of reality. Governments indeed seek to perpetuate their clout and increase it - but they do so mostly in order to redistribute income and rarely for self-enrichment.

Economics also failed until recently to account for the role of innovation in growth and development. The discipline often ignored the specific nature of knowledge industries (where returns increase rather than diminish and network effects prevail). Thus, current economic thinking is woefully inadequate to deal with information monopolies (such as Microsoft), path dependence, and pervasive externalities.

Classic cost/benefit analyses fail to tackle very long term investment horizons (i.e., periods). Their underlying assumption - the opportunity cost of delayed consumption - fails when applied beyond the investor's useful economic life expectancy. People care less about their grandchildren's future than about their own. This is because predictions concerned with the far future are highly uncertain and investors refuse to base current decisions on fuzzy "what ifs".

This is a problem because many current investments, such as the fight against global warming, are likely to yield results only decades hence. There is no effective method of cost/benefit analysis applicable to such time horizons.

How are consumer choices influenced by advertising and by pricing? No one seems to have a clear answer. Advertising is concerned with the dissemination of information. Yet it is also a signal sent to consumers that a certain product is useful and qualitative and that the advertiser's stability, longevity, and profitability are secure. Advertising communicates a long term commitment to a winning product by a firm with deep pockets. This is why patrons react to the level of visual exposure to advertising - regardless of its content.

Humans may be too multi-dimensional and hyper-complex to be usefully captured by econometric models. These either lack predictive powers or lapse into logical fallacies, such as the "omitted variable bias" or "reverse causality". The former is concerned with important variables unaccounted for - the latter with reciprocal causation, when every cause is also caused by its own effect.

These are symptoms of an all-pervasive malaise. Economists are simply not sure what precisely constitutes their subject matter. Is economics about the construction and testing of models in accordance with certain basic assumptions? Or should it revolve around the mining of data for emerging patterns, rules, and "laws"?

On the one hand, patterns based on limited - or, worse, non-recurrent - sets of data form a questionable foundation for any kind of "science". On the other hand, models based on assumptions are also in doubt because they are bound to be replaced by new models with new, hopefully improved, assumptions.

One way around this apparent quagmire is to put human cognition (i.e., psychology) at the heart of economics. Assuming that being human is an immutable and knowable constant - it should be amenable to scientific treatment. "Prospect theory", "bounded rationality theories", and the study of "hindsight bias" as well as other cognitive deficiencies are the outcomes of this approach.

To qualify as science, economic theory must satisfy the following cumulative conditions:

All-inclusiveness (anamnetic) - It must encompass, integrate, and incorporate all the facts known about economic behaviour.

Coherence - It must be chronological, structured and causal. It must explain, for instance, why a certain economic policy leads to specific economic outcomes - and why.

Consistency - It must be self-consistent. Its sub-"units" cannot contradict one another or go against the grain of the main "theory". It must also be consistent with the observed phenomena, both those related to economics and those pertaining to non-economic human behaviour. It must adequately cope with irrationality and cognitive deficits.

Logical compatibility - It must not violate the laws of its internal logic and the rules of logic "out there", in the real world.

Insightfulness - It must cast the familiar in a new light, mine patterns and rules from big bodies of data ("data mining"). Its insights must be the inevitable conclusion of the logic, the language, and the evolution of the theory.

Aesthetic - Economic theory must be both plausible and "right", beautiful (aesthetic), not cumbersome, not awkward, not discontinuous, smooth, and so on.

Parsimony - The theory must employ a minimum number of assumptions and entities to explain the maximum number of observed economic behaviours.

Explanatory Powers - It must explain the behaviour of economic actors, their decisions, and why economic events develop the way they do.

Predictive (prognostic) Powers - Economic theory must be able to predict future economic events and trends as well as the future behaviour of economic actors.

Prescriptive Powers - The theory must yield policy prescriptions, much like physics yields technology. Economists must develop "economic technology" - a set of tools, blueprints, rules of thumb, and mechanisms with the power to change the " economic world".

Imposing - It must be regarded by society as the preferable and guiding organizing principle in the economic sphere of human behaviour.

Elasticity - Economic theory must possess the intrinsic abilities to self organize, reorganize, give room to emerging order, accommodate new data comfortably, and avoid rigid reactions to attacks from within and from without.

Many current economic theories do not meet these cumulative criteria and are, thus, merely glorified narratives.

But meeting the above conditions is not enough. Scientific theories must also pass the crucial hurdles of testability, verifiability, refutability, falsifiability, and repeatability. Yet, many economists go as far as to argue that no experiments can be designed to test the statements of economic theories.

It is difficult - perhaps impossible - to test hypotheses in economics for four reasons.

Ethical - Experiments would have to involve human subjects, ignorant of the reasons for the experiments and their aims. Sometimes even the very existence of an experiment will have to remain a secret (as with double blind experiments). Some experiments may involve unpleasant experiences. This is ethically unacceptable.

Design Problems - The design of experiments in economics is awkward and difficult. Mistakes are often inevitable, however careful and meticulous the designer of the experiment is.

The Psychological Uncertainty Principle - The current mental state of a human subject can be (theoretically) fully known. But the passage of time and, sometimes, the experiment itself, influence the subject and alter his or her mental state - a problem known in economic literature as "time inconsistencies". The very processes of measurement and observation influence the subject and change it.

Uniqueness - Experiments in economics, therefore, tend to be unique. They cannot be repeated even when the SAME subjects are involved, simply because no human subject remains the same for long. Repeating the experiments with other subjects casts in doubt the scientific value of the results.

The undergeneration of testable hypotheses - Economic theories do not generate a sufficient number of hypotheses, which can be subjected to scientific testing. This has to do with the fabulous (i.e., storytelling) nature of the discipline.

In a way, economics has an affinity with some private languages. It is a form of art and, as such, it is self-sufficient and self-contained. If certain structural, internal constraints and requirements are met - a statement in economics is deemed to be true even if it does not satisfy external (scientific) requirements. Thus, the standard theory of utility is considered valid in economics despite overwhelming empirical evidence to the contrary - simply because it is aesthetic and mathematically convenient.

So, what are economic "theories" good for?

Economic "theories" and narratives offer an organizing principle, a sense of order, predictability, and justice. They postulate an inexorable drive toward greater welfare and utility (i.e., the idea of progress). They render our chaotic world meaningful and make us feel part of a larger whole. Economics strives to answer the "why's" and "how's" of our daily life. It is dialogic and prescriptive (i.e., provides behavioural prescriptions). In certain ways, it is akin to religion.

In its catechism, the believer (let's say, a politician) asks: "Why... (and here follows an economic problem or behaviour)".

The economist answers:

"The situation is like this not because the world is whimsically cruel, irrational, and arbitrary - but because ... (and here follows a causal explanation based on an economic model). If you were to do this or that the situation is bound to improve".

The believer feels reassured by this explanation and by the explicit affirmation that there is hope providing he follows the prescriptions. His belief in the existence of linear order and justice administered by some supreme, transcendental principle is restored.

This sense of "law and order" is further enhanced when the theory yields predictions which come true, either because they are self-fulfilling or because some real "law", or pattern, has emerged. Alas, this happens rarely. As "The Economist" notes gloomily, economists have the most disheartening record of failed predictions - and prescriptions.

The Sacred Numbers Of Pythagoras

The great mathematician Pythagoras used sequences of numbers that were tied closely to sacred geometry. It used a similar method of sequential number summation as the mathematician Fibonacci employed. It is far more complex in scope than the Fibonacci sequence uses, but a lot of the numbers are the same using both methods.

For those of you not so familiar with Pythagoras He is the one credited with the equation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Perfect Square = 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 = 25 or any whole number multiplied by these numbers; for instance.

(3 x 3)^2 + (3 x 4)^2 = (3 x 5)^2 = 9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2 = 225

Perfect Square = 5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2 = 169

Pythagoras was also a master of the ancient mysteries, and was a founding member of a secret knowledge Fraternity. He kept his secrets closely guarded, and allowed only persons knowledgeable in mathematics, music, and reason into his fold.

This is the mathematical blueprint for the alchemy of harmonic balance and Unity of spirit, mind, and body, through numeric sequencing according to my interpretation of Pythagoras's terms.

Also injected into the sequence is the secret Philosophy of Hermes Trismegistus

3 = the sum of Unity and Duality. = 1 + 2 (Realization of True Self; The true Illuminate)

2 = Duality = 1A +1 (Balancing of the sub-conscious and conscious minds;Opening of the 3rd EYE)

Ascension to Fully Enlightened Being requires the completion of the circle of servitude. One must Know how to be the Master, and the Servant before one can be an ascended Master.

666 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 +... 36; = (Fully enlightened being, Completion of the circle of Servitude)

13^√666 = 1.648884841 This is very close to being equal to (PHI) = φ = 1.618 (This shows that even the Enlightened Being is irrational in nature before the Pure nature of GOD.

The final requirement is that one must sacrifice something of them self for the benefit of the whole. Only then will one be invited to join the Sacred ranks of the ascended Masters.

1 = Unity (United to Source; Ascended Master; These are drawn back to Source by Source)

1^3Alpha = SOURCE (Divine thought; GOD) = Perfect Cube; (7) is the divine number of God

Pythagoras's Numbers

Primary numbers = 1;2;3;6;10;15;21;28;36;45;55;66;78;91;96

2nd incarnation of the prime 1;2,3 = 11;12;13 = 36

3rd incarnation of the prime 1;2;3 = 21;22;23 = 66

4th incarnation of the prime 1;2;3 = 31;32;33 = 96

Secondary numbers = 5;25;36;46;63;70;76;81;85;88;90;91

Obviously there is a lot involved with Pythagoras's sequence of sacred numbers. There are many aspects of this sequence that I have not even considered yet. Fibonacci kept it fairly simple, although it does go much deeper than this article takes it.

I hope that you are starting to understand the significance of the sacred numbers as they relate to the construction of the Universe and Man's 3 fold spiritual, Mental, and Physical development.

For instance 2^2 √6 = 9.797958971 this is very close to being equal to the gravitational fore of Earth. This could very well be a coincidence, but I doubt it. All life is dependent upon gravity for many different reasons.

Both numbers are sacred, 2 ^2 represents Duality squared. 6 is the number of man, it is derived by taking the sum of the sum of Unity and Duality, and the sum of Unity and Duality = 3 + 3.The square root of 6 represents origin of man, it is an irrational number, I wounder why?

√6 = 2.449489743 this is between 2 and 3, so man was raised from his original state of being to the higher state of being that we exist in now.

The number 666 has long been a feared number by those of certain religious faiths. According to my reasoning, the Pythagorian school of thought would maintain that this number represents mans ascension to enlightenment.

If there are 36 degrees of ascension for the Spirit, Mind, and Body to attain the balance and harmony that Unity is, there would be 12 degrees of ascension for each aspect of Spirit, Mind, and Body.

12 x 36 = 432; 666 - 432 = 234; 432 - 234 = 198 which is very close to equaling (φ^11) - 1 = 197.96;

666 / 12 = 55.5 which is very close to the mean resonance of the resonance of the Earth = 60.57Hz, and the resonance of our Solar system = 50.177Hz;

(60.57 + 50.177) / 2 = 55.3735Hz.

666 / 36 = 18.5; 18.5 / 3 = 6.1666666667 If you divide this by 10 it is very close to equaling phi =.618

3^2((6^2 x 2) + 2) = 666

666, This number simply represents the harmonic Unity of the 3 aspects of the fully enlightened Human Being. I think that someone of this nature would definitely pose a problem to most theological schools of thought prevalent in the world today. Also 666 represents man's elemental construction being composed of the carbon element which has 6 neutrons, 6 protons, and 6 electrons.

I do not wish to imply that we should all go around wearing 666 as a mantra, this number has a negative meaning to a lot of people, so it is best to be understanding. Be respectful of others beliefs, refrain from any practices that would create a negative influence in the minds of others.

There are 2 paths for all beings to follow. One is on the high frequency range, the other on the lower frequency range. All enlightened beings should follow the higher frequency range for obvious reasons.

Even enlightened beings can become negatively influenced by too much power.

Ego is the darkness that casts shadows over the light of Love.

It is not wise to seek power over others, this creates conflict. Greed, and the lust of power over others are what destroys families and Nations.

Be mindful of each thought, and even more so of the words you choose to use, they have more power than you think. Thoughts and words are vibrations that can have a positive or negative affect on us.

Thank you for joining me on my quest for Truth and higher knowledge, I hope that your mind has been opened by my words and equations.

Like all of my articles, this is a work in progress and updates will be frequent.

PEACE!

The International Dance Festival in Monaco - December 2004

The recently past year Monaco was the scene for the grand biennial Dance Forum. The event took place between 14 and 18 December 2004 and was held mostly at Grimaldi Forum. The four days unfolded on various levels:

Performances, Multimedia Forum, Dance on Screen, The ADvANCE Project, First Job Audition, Exhibitions - monographic and thematic ones, Karl Lagerfeld's photo exhibition, Rendez-vous - great opportunities open for the public to meet famous choreographers from all over the world. Most notable performances included Orfeo ed Euridice, by Emio Greco/PC and Opera North / Netherlands, UK and Fairy, by Jyrki Karttunen and Co / Finland, Henry Oguike Dance Company from the UK and Compania Maria Pages, a Spanish company that blends flamenco with contemporary jazz standards.

The ceremony of the 2004 Nijinsky Awards was held on December 18 at the Forum Grimaldi in Monte Carlo. The most coveted prizes were awarded to Nicolas Le Riche of the Ballet de l'Opera National de Paris and the Romanian performer Alina Cojocaru of the London Royal Ballet in the male and female dancer categories.

The multimedia forum constituted an innovative way to lead dance beyond boundaries of gravity and scenic space constraints, bonding new ties with other arts - music, film, visual arts.The multimedia projects reunited choreographers, stage designers, musicians, graphic artists etc. Three forms were accepted: software, live choregraphic pieces making use of numeric devices and choreographic installations.

There were 142 candidates from 29 countries. The SACD prize was awarded to the unfinished project "Donât ask the Blond" initiated by Cosmin Manolescu in collaboration with Kira Riikonen and Roberto Casarotto. The project reunites the collective work of choreographers and other artists from Finland, Italy and Romania and will be developed in 2005. The final show will be accompanied by visual and sonorous creations. Ten persons from the audience will be invited to take part in the performance each time. The premiere will be in Finland, in July 2005.

The section Dance on Screen was intended to offer to audiovisual producers and dance companies an opportunity to meet partners such as directors of festivals, theatre programmers, TV broadcasters, general and specialized media journalists with the view of future project development, promotion and marketing.

The results of the ADVANCE Project were presented at a conference during Monaco Dance Forum. This project was initiated three years ago by the International Organization for the Transition of Professional Dancers (IOTPD) aiming to improve the challenges met by the professional dancers when transitioning to a post-dance career.

On December 14 and 15, 100 pre-professional dancers selected from around the world had the opportunity to obtain their first full time contract on the First Job Audition. The audition consisted of one classical ballet class and a contemporary workshop with an invited choreographer. The First Job Audition ended with the Bursary Awards Ceremony which took place on December 16 at "Espace Karrement"(Grimaldi Forum) in the presence of H.R.H. Princess Caroline of Hanover.

Princess Caroline, who is president of the Monte Carlo Ballet, founded by Princess Grace, has worked hard to fulfil her mother's dream of making dance an essential part of Monaco's cultural life. The most important moments of the Forum, culminating with the Nijinsky Awards night at the Salle des Princes of the Grimaldi Forum, were marked by her presence.
