clinic Back from war, young vets struggle to find good jobs - Yahoo!
clinic
SUFFOLK, Va ( Reuters) - Given the high unemployment rate among young male veterans, 25- year- old Thomas Jones and 31- year- old Vincent Moore Jr. are thankful to at least have work at a Suffolk, Virginia video game store. But acquiring good- paying jobs that match the excitement of the military and the skills they learned during their service has proven more elusive. " Finding the small- time jobs, maybe at a restaurant or working in retail, is one thing, but a lot of guys out are looking for something a little more permanent, " said Jones, an infantryman who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. The average national unemployment rate for male veterans aged 18- 24 who have served their country since September 2001 is staggering: 28. 3 percent were out of work in the second quarter of this year, up from 21. 9 percent for all of last year, according to the Department of Labor. Male veterans aged 25- 34 have fared slightly better. An average of 14.
5 percent were unemployed between April and June of this year, compared to 9. 5 percent of non- veterans in the same age group.
Their plight hasn' t gone unnoticed. The Department of Veterans Affairs has developed a website linking veterans and employers, and a new pilot program at eight college campuses connects counselors with veterans to help them make the most of their education. The Chamber of Commerce in March launched Hiring Our Heroes, a year- long program including 100 hiring fairs aimed at helping veterans and their spouses find meaningful employment. Efforts are particularly focused on young veterans and veterans with disabilities, said Ruth Fanning, director of Veterans Affairs' Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Service. " What we' re doing is helping them adjust to the fact that they' re starting a new career and develop a plan for the best career for them, " she said. Young veterans " are the most vulnerable, " she said. " They' re least likely to have anything other than entry- level employment in their past. " She described a wide range of strategies and tactics used by her staff, including early intervention and outreach to military bases and facilities and helping veterans achieve civilian certifications. She said the VA and the Defense Department were actively looking at ways to better document for the civilian job market the skills service members learned in the military.
Those with some of the more specialized positions within the military, such as physicians and lawyers, have fared better on the outside than others like computer technicians and medics, she said. That has certainly been the experience of Moore, who joined after high school in 1999 and worked as a medical technician at bases in Georgia, Maryland, Kuwait and Iraq. He said the experience he gained working in intensive care units and emergency rooms, where he performed tasks beyond the usual range of medical technicians, hasn' t translated into landing a job at a civilian hospital. He plans to begin studying nursing this fall. ) certification, " said Moore, whose military service ended in 2009. " I was also a nationally registered emergency medical technician, but what I found on the outside is that' s not even recognizable when you' re talking about state ( licensing) .
You have to be state licensed to do anything in the state of Virginia or anywhere else. " Jones, who served four years in the Marines before being discharged last November, struggles to cope with the monotony and low pay of his retail job. He said his military service taught him problem solving, and leadership, but he doesn' t have any tangible proof of those skills to show prospective civilian employers.
He also plans to get more schooling and hopes that a business degree will allow him eventually to run his own restaurant. Jones said he has encountered the added hurdle of prejudice, despite the fact that the Hampton Roads area where he lives is home to major Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Army and Coast Guard installations. " Jarhead, that' s what we' re called, " he said. " A lot of people are like ' Oh, you' re a jarhead, you' ve got nothing in there.

paint Mother cleared in toddler's murder freed from prison - Yahoo!

, acquitted earlier this month of murdering her toddler daughter in a high profile case that riveted the US public, walked out of a under tight security. Anthony, 25, was greeted by a boisterous crowd, some of whom shouted " killer! " as she was escorted by police from Orange County Jail to a waiting vehicle just past midnight, and whisked off to an unknown location. Anthony spent over three years in jail on suspicion of killing her two- year- old daughter Caylee. Acquitted by a jury on July 5, she remained in jail for 12 more days, after being convicted of lying to authorities probing the case. Despite no further restrictions on her freedom, Anthony was likely to require security after her release.
The legal team representing Anthony in her ongoing defamation case has said she has received several threats in recent days. Some of the hundreds of spectators and protesters outside the jail, who had been waiting for hours for her release, were shouting " killer! " as she walked out, accompanied by her attorney Jose Baez. Anthony must still pay a $ 4, 000 fine - - the maximum fine the judge could impose, $ 1, 000 per for lying.
As well as being found not guilty for murder, Anthony was also found not guilty of child abuse and aggravated manslaughter. Prosecution lawyers were unable to convince the jury of their claims that Anthony had suffocated her daughter with duct tape, dumped the body in her car for a few days, and then hid it. The skeletal remains of the little girl' s body was found just under six months later. The defense team maintained the toddler drowned accidentally and that Anthony and her father George covered up the death.
The NFL wants team executives ready to be schooled in the ins and outs of a new labor contract as early as Thursday. Players are gathering in Washington so they' re ready to vote on an agreement in principle even sooner than that.
Yes, signs are strong that football' s four- month lockout might almost be over. Lawyers for both sides were scheduled to meet with a court- appointed mediator in New York on Tuesday, when representatives of retired players were expected to participate, too, in an attempt to close a deal to resolve the NFL' s first work stoppage since 1987. " Making progress, " outside counsel Jeffrey Kessler said as he left a Manhattan law firm after 8 hours of talks Monday. Kessler also represents locked- out NBA players. spoke to each other on the telephone Monday and planned to stay in regular contact. " Nobody cheers for you at Mile 25 of a marathon.
You still have to cross the finish line, " NFLPA spokesman George Atallah said in Washington. " There still are things that can get you tripped up, and we' re going to push through. " Owners are set to hold a special meeting in Atlanta on Thursday, when they could ratify a new agreement — if there is one. Executives from all 32 teams then would be briefed there Thursday and Friday on how the terms would affect league business, two people familiar with the plan told The Associated Press.
The people said the clubs were told Monday that topics would include the 2011 NFL calendar, rookie salary system and guidelines for player transactions. They spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the process is supposed to remain confidential. Any tentative agreement also must be approved by the players, of course, including star quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees and the other plaintiffs in an antitrust suit against the league that is pending in federal court in Minnesota. Members of the NFLPA executive committee and representatives of every team were heading to Washington by Wednesday, in preparation for possible decisions on re- establishing a union and signing off on a tentative pact with owners.
Atallah said the players would be gathering " with the hope they have something to look at, and with the hope we can move forward on this. " Owners locked out players on March 12, when the old collective bargaining agreement expired, leaving the country' s most popular professional sports league in limbo.
The sides are trying to forge a settlement in time to keep the preseason completely intact. The exhibition opener is supposed to be the Hall of Fame game between the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears on Aug.
The regular- season opener is scheduled for Sept.
8, when the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers are to host the . Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick tweeted Monday: " Sound like we gonna be back to work so soon! ! ! " One issue standing in the way of a resolution, according to a person from each side of the dispute and speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity: Players want owners to turn over $ 320 million in unpaid benefits from the 2010 season. Because there was no that season, the old collective bargaining agreement said NFL teams weren' t required to pay those benefits. On a separate matter, one of those people, as well as a second person familiar with the negotiations, also told the AP that a proposal currently under consideration would set up nearly $ 1 billion over the next 10 years in additional benefits for retired players. That would include $ 620 million in pension increases, long- term care insurance and disability programs.
Representatives of retired players complained to the court recently that they had been excluded from negotiations. In Minnesota, players' lawyers filed a motion Monday asking for a summary judgment that the lockout is illegal and that players are entitled to damages. The NFL, meanwhile, asked the court for a week' s extension to file their formal response to the lawsuit; the original deadline was Monday.
Those filings were necessary, procedural moves that would be rendered moot if an agreement is reached before the Aug. 29 hearing date. Later Monday, the NFL and retired players filed a joint request to delay the hearing for at least a month to allow owners " to focus on the continuing mediation. " Atallah called the current players' filing " an obligation to protect the members of the class. " " Obviously, if we come to a settlement, it all can be lifted at any time, " he said. During lengthy negotiations last week, players and owners came up with the framework of a CBA that addresses most of their differences. — How the more than $ 9 billion in annual league revenues will be divided, with somewhere from 46.
5 to 48.
5 percent going to players, depending on how much the total take from TV contracts and other sources rises or falls; — A cap of about $ 120 million per team for player salaries in 2011, with about another $ 20 million per team in benefits. — Each team must spend at least 90 percent of the salary cap in cash each season, a higher figure than in the past. AP Sports Writers Rachel Cohen, Teresa Walker, Larry Lage, John Wawrow, Tom Canavan, Jon Krawczynski and Dave Campbell contributed to this report.

level Syrian troops tighten clampdown on Homs - Yahoo!
level
, where shots were heard, arrests were made and many streets were deserted, rights activists said. " ( Security forces) entered houses and made arrests, " said Rami Abdel Rahman of the London- based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, reached by telephone. " Shots were heard in Homs from dawn, " he added. " Most streets were deserted because of the military operations.
Tanks were seen around the fortress and entrances to many neighbourhoods were closed. " Activists say pro- regime gunmen have killed at least 20 people in Homs since Monday, including seven mourners at a funeral. Fierce fighting rocked the city at the weekend, with activists reporting more than 30 people killed in clashes among Christians, Sunni Muslims and President Bashar al- Assad' s minority Alawite community. Syria' s third- largest city, Homs has spearheaded demonstrations against Assad and his regime since protests erupted on March 15.
The army had already entered the city in May in a bid to stop rallies calling for the fall of the regime.
Activists meanwhile called for more protests countrywide after the main weekly Muslim prayers on Friday, following a pattern that has become standard in many parts of the Arab world since popular uprisings toppled the veteran rulers of Tunisia and Egypt earlier this year. Using the Facebook site Syrian Revolution 2011, one of the motors of the revolt against Assad' s autocratic rule, the activists said Friday' s protests will be in support of the residents of Homs. It appealed for a mass turnout to honour " the grandsons of Khalid and for national unity. " , a companion of the Prophet Mohammed known for his courage and military prowess, is buried in Homs. Last Friday, more than one million people turned out across Syria - - mainly in the cities of Hama and Deir Ezzor - - to protest against Assad' s regime and to demand the release of hundreds of detainees seized at earlier pro- democracy rallies. Human rights activists said at least 28 civilians were killed, including 16 in the capital Damascus and a child, when security forces opened fire to quell last week' s protests.
The activists say the government' s crackdown has left more than 1, 400 civilians dead since mid- March. Thousands more have been jailed.
