ABSTRACT:	
A survey of advertising and marketing execs by Menlo Park, Calif.-based
The Creative Group found 57 percent think it's "okay" for employees to
visit non-work-related websites during business hours, provided the

whose job requires creativity, recreational web surfing may really be
work by other means. In the creative field, surfing non-work sites may
be considered part of the job, because it allows professionals to keep
up with trends and seek new sources of inspiration, says Megan
Slabinski, executive director of The Creative Group.

roots than current concern about high gas prices and the housing crisis.

"Corporate, Securities Law Are Hottest Practice Areas, U.S. Survey
Shows"
(Circulation: 2,147 ; AVE: $523 ) 	
Author: Charles Toutant 	
ABSTRACT:	
In the survey conducted by staffing agency Robert Half Legal and
released Tuesday, corporate and securities law were cited by 24 percent
of the respondents. 

Litigation ranked second, cited by 21 percent of the 300 attorneys at
large firms and corporations who have been practicing for at least three
years. Intellectual property law and international law were tied for
third place, with each chosen by 16 percent of respondents;
environmental law was next, with 12 percent, followed by commercial real
estate, chosen by 5 percent; other areas and "don't know" were each
chosen by three percent. A heightened focus on regulatory compliance
issues should ensure that corporate and securities law will remain a top
practice area in the future, says Charles Volkert, executive director of
Robert Half Legal.
