Adele Shoots Down Throat Cancer Rumors

This time, rumor doesn't have it. Despite speculation to the contrary on Twitter, Adele's reps are insisting that the British pop star has not been diagnosed with throat cancer.

Sales rise at Detroit's Big Three automakers

Chrysler outpaced its Detroit rivals with a 27 percent increase in sales in October, led by strong demand for its Jeep and Chrysler brands. Ford sales gained 6 percent while GM, the largest of the Big Three, ran third with a 2 percent rise in sales.

Chrysler had its best October sales since 2007, selling more than 114,000 cars and trucks last month compared with 90,000 a year earlier. As a whole, sales in October rose to their highest level of the year.

Ford said Tuesday its U.S. sales were helped by strong demand for its pickups and SUVs. Car sales dropped 8 percent at the automaker, however. Only the subcompact Fiesta and the midsize Fusion saw small increases from last October.

GM's sales were led by the Chevrolet Cruze compact and Equinox crossover. Cruze sales nearly tripled from last year, Equinox sales rose 18 percent.

The automaker's overall sales suffered from rough comparisons with the strong sales it reported at the same time last year.

GM sold nearly 187,000 cars and trucks last month. Car sales were up 4 percent and trucks were up 2 percent. But sales of the company's crossover sport utility vehicles fell 1 percent.

Nissan's October sales were up 18 percent as the Japanese automaker extended a winning streak against rivals Toyota and Honda.

Despite the upbeat sales reports, shares of automakers dropped amid concerns that the fallout from the European debt crisis could undermine the global economy and reduce the rising demand for autos expected in 2012.

"We don't have a strong recovery to begin with and the last thing it needs is a couple of body blows," said Paul Ballew, chief economist at insurer Nationwide. "Every time this industry starts to feel better about itself, you kind of look at the world around and gulp."

U.S. auto sales, which are tracked as one of the earliest snapshots of consumer demand, slipped in the spring and early summer amid concerns about the prospect of a renewed downturn in the U.S. economy and supply disruptions triggered by the March earthquake in Japan.

Sales overall had been expected to rise last month as people who put off buying cars last summer because Japanese brands were in tight supply returned to the market in October.

Consumers delay buying
Analysts said the improved results for October showed some consumers have delayed vehicle purchases for as long as they could during the downturn. Used car prices are higher and the average age of cars and trucks on American roads is now about 11 years, the highest-ever reading for that indicator for pent-up demand.

Jonathan Browning, chief executive of Volkswagen Group of America, said the strong October sales for Volkswagen came despite the still-weak economy.

"There are still are some underlying consumer confidence issues," Browning said.

He said he expected industrywide U.S. sales to end at about 13 million vehicles for the full year, up from 11.6 million in 2010. The sales rate in the first nine months of 2011 was 12.5 million.

Retail sales for Chrysler, which exclude discounted sales to fleet operators like car rental agencies, were up 40 percent in October, a rebound that underscored how far the weakest of the three U.S. automakers has bounced back since its 2009 bankruptcy and bailout.

Last month, Chrysler was third in U.S. sales behind cross-town rivals GM and Ford and slightly ahead of Toyota Motor Corp.

Nissan's U.S. sales chief, Al Castignetti, said he expected that fourth-quarter U.S. auto sales would hit the highest level of the year as consumers shrug off the economic and financial uncertainty.

"We've been dealing with this all year," he said. "People have been conditioned to deal with the headlines."

October was the first month that dealers at Nissan's rivals, Toyota and Honda, reported that their inventories had returned to near normal levels, seven months after the earthquake in Japan that disrupted the supply of key components including electronic sensors.

Nissan was quicker to bounce back from the March disaster.

Analysts are watching the impact of floods in Thailand, which could crimp production for the Japanese automakers in the months ahead.

Honda withdrew its annual earnings guidance Monday, citing the strong yen and floods in Thailand, just as it was starting to recover from Japan's earthquake and tsunami.

Among Japanese automakers, Honda has been hit the hardest by the supply disruptions caused by both Asian disasters. The latest floods in Thailand have caused direct damage to the company's car factory in Thailand's Ayutthaya province.

Honda said its North American production would be half of its original plan from Nov. 2 through Nov. 10 at its six plants in the United States and Canada due to parts shortages resulting from the floods.

Lawmakers warn Obama over Russia's WTO bid (Reuters)

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ? Senior lawmakers urged the Obama administration Saturday to insist Russia meet high standards in its bid to join the World Trade Organization (WTO), saying they worried about the impact on American jobs and businesses.

The Obama administration has said it is committed to helping Russia join the WTO this year. The Congress cannot stop Moscow's entry, but it could refuse to lift restraints on U.S.-Russia trade that date back to the Cold War.

In a letter to Trade Representative Ron Kirk, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, a Democrat, and three colleagues suggested the restraints, known as the Jackson-Vanik amendment, could remain if Russia did not fix problems with its trade policies.

"A high standard (WTO) accession package will be essential to ensuring support for granting Russia permanent normal trade relations," said the lawmakers who oversee trade legislation in Congress.

Senator Orrin Hatch, the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, Republican House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp, and Sander Levin, the ranking Democrat on that committee, also signed the letter.

They said they worried about Russia's protection of intellectual property rights; Russia's commitment to duty-free access for information technology; market access to Russia for U.S. agricultural goods; and whether Russia's auto investment policy would disadvantage U.S. auto companies.

"While we recognize that Russia has made progress in opening its economy since 1991, the accession should address the serious problems that remain," they said.

If Congress refused to lift the trade restraints and establish "permanent normal trade relations," Russia could under WTO rules deny U.S. exporters the market-opening concessions it negotiated to join the world trading body.

Russia is closer than ever to joining the WTO after being offered a "take it or leave it" compromise last week by its tiny neighbor Georgia, the last holdout in Moscow's 18-year path to membership.

Georgia, like all WTO members, has an effective veto on Russia's membership, which it has threatened to use unless a dispute with Russia over customs controls was resolved.

The two countries fought a brief war in August 2008 over two breakaway regions in Georgia and they have not restored diplomatic relations.

Russia said Thursday it needed several days to review a proposal on border trade with Georgia made by Swiss mediators.

Russian entry to the WTO would be the biggest step in world trade liberalization since China joined a decade ago, and the United States and the European Union have urged all sides to try to settle membership terms by the end of this year.

But there is a lot of sympathy in the Congress for Georgia, as well as some criticism of President Barack Obama's "reset" policy with Russia.

House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican, said last week that Moscow's border dispute with Georgia should be resolved before movement on its WTO bid was considered.

Teachers' bonuses: Should parental engagement be a factor? (The Week)

New York ? School districts in Idaho experiment with plans to link educators' pay to how well teachers get their students' parents involved

Idaho is implementing sweeping education reforms requiring schools to give teachers performance bonuses. And about a third of the state's school districts will be letting a new group of evaluators have a say in designating those rewards: Parents. Here, a brief guide to Idaho's innovative new merit-pay system:

Parents will pick who gets bonuses?
Not exactly. But 29 school districts have decided to make parental involvement a factor. In the Challis district in the central Idaho countryside, for example, teachers will have to make contact with each child's parents at least twice every three months to remain eligible for bonuses. In the nearby farming town of Gooding, some teachers will get 25 percent of their bonus pay if they get enough parents to attend three meetings over the course of the academic year. "We're a really little town in the middle of nowhere," Challis Superintendent Colby Gull tells the Associated Press.?"Parents are pretty involved in what's going on. But we wanted to get them more involved in the academic side of the school."

What other factors will be considered?
So far, 105 school districts and charter schools have written their own merit-pay plans using a variety of benchmarks, including student attendance, graduation rates, and writing assessments. Fifty districts and charter schools chose not to write their own plans, and instead will comply with the state's plan, which pegs bonuses to standardized test scores. But teachers across Idaho will have to meet the state's goals, so test scores will be the one factor everyone will be judged on.

Is it really necessary to put parents into the mix?
As a parent, says Jeanne Sager at The Stir, I must say, this is "just bizarre." It's not the teachers' fault "if some parents don't take an involved role in their kids' education," so why penalize them if mom and dad can't be bothered to attend parent-teacher conferences? Get used to it, says RiShawn Biddle at Dropout Nation. "Accepting families as lead decision-makers in education" is critical to addressing America's education crisis. Parents aren't "nuisances and enemies" ? they're a necessary part of any successful school.
