If you've been working for a while, you will probably get 6 months of benefits from the state. Then the tiers kick in, with extended benefits that are funded by the federal government. The tiers depend on the unemployment rate for the state. I've been unemployed for 14 months now, and am in Tier 2 (now that we didn't go over a fiscal cliff on Jan. 1). All the info you'll ever want to know is found on the unemployment forum, here: http://www.city-data.com/forum/unemployment/.
Trans World Airlines (TWA) was a major American airline from 1925 until 2001. It was originally formed as Transcontinental & Western Air to operate a transcontinental route from New York City to Los Angeles via St. Louis and Kansas City as well as other intermediate stops with Ford Trimotor aircraft.
Meanwhile the unions were trying to talk Icahn into selling the company to the employees. He refused to even talk to the unions.Had there been one death on Flight 843 - TWA would have been out of business the very next day. But that was not the case.On July 30, 1992, TWA was once again in the news.
