Kennel stress: Signs and what to do

Working in the pet insurance industry, I tend to follow pet-related groups on Facebook. Some of the pages I follow include rescue groups where I see daily pleas for foster parents to come forward and help pets showing signs of “kennel stress.”

It’s true that most dogs would prefer not to stay in a strange kennel by themselves, although many do okay. But those who start suffering clear signs of stress need to be handled in a special way to ensure they’re happy, well-adjusted and adoptable when the right family comes looking for them.

Board level interest in anti-money laundering (AML) is being squeezed by other priorities, according to KPMG’s 2011 Global AML survey, with more firms risking massive fines.

The study revealed a 9% drop in boards considering AML to be a high profile issue (from 71% in 2007 to 62% in 2011), as company chiefs focus on survival and regulatory change.

Meanwhile the operational costs of AML have risen by an average of 45% since 2007, with a further 28% increase predicted over the next three years and the estimate probably on the light side, given the optimistic nature of previous industry forecasts in this area. <

Disability Insurance Recommended by Jim Cramer

I read an interesting article in TheStreet.com, which was a recap of a Mad Money show, in which Jim Cramer listed three crucial necessities that investors must take care of before investing in the stock market:

  • The first necessity is that credit card debt should be paid off.   Cramer advises potential investors that carrying balances on high-interest credit cards can potentially cancel out any gains earned in the stock market.
  • The second necessity is health insurance.  As medical emergencies are the largest cause of personal bankruptcies, Cramer says that acquiring health insurance is a must.
  • Disability Insurance is the third necessity mentioned by Cramer.

Sex, Files and Videotape: The Conclusion

Back in January,we posted a story concerning an ugly bit of litigation in New York City between Liberty Mutual and one of its defense firms in which a dispute concerning overdue fees had degenerated into allegations that a senior claims executive (“Mr. X”) was demanding kickbacks for assigning more files and the law firm was trying to blackmail the carrier by revealing details of Mr. X’s use of a lawyer’s apartment for sexual trysts.

We are happy to report that this tawdry mess that was Michael J. Devereaux & Associates vs. Liberty Insurance Underwriters,has come to a conclusion.  It was reported this week that the parties have come to terms and agreed to settle.  In a statement to the press, Michael J. Deve
