Keeping Up with Class Actions: Reports, Legal Sites and Blogs of Note

Class actions are brought for various claims, but are more common in tort, securities, consumer fraud and employment actions. These suits are also referred to as mass torts, or collective or representative actions (the latter terms most common to employment law related suits). Complaints are brought by one or more representatives on behalf of a larger group of similarly situated people or legal entities. At the federal level, Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure governs whether or not a case can eventually become a class action. Furthermore, a case can only become a bona fide class action once a judge certifies the class. Sites like lawyers.com and the Class Action Blawg provide overviews and definitions of terms used in these proceedings.

OTHER - Seculine Action Spirit Level

Spirit levels are a near essential item for some types of photography, such as landscapes and architecture, whether they’re built in to the tripod or fitted to the camera’s hotshoe. It isn’t always that easy to see the little bubble, though, especially if your eyesight isn’t quite 20/20. Enter the Seculine Action Level. It’s a digital hotshoe spirit level that looks like a tiny toy aeroplane. If you’ve ever successfully negotiated a set of traffic lights you’ll find this easy to use. Switch it on and you get a row of five LEDs. In the middle is a green one. If it’s lit it means you’re level. Either side of that are two amber lights, which mean you’re nearly there. On the outside edges are two red ones and, yes, you’ve guessed what those mean.
