I suffered a head injury during a football training session 5 days ago. I got knocked to the ground and landed pretty heavily on the back on my head. I was pretty dizzy but I could still stand up. However I couldn't remember the fall exactly (brief blackout perhaps). It's been 5 days now and I still get some headaches when I forcefully shake my head. Should I be worried?

I recentley was involved in an accident after a night drinking at a bar. The bar staff took my keys from me early in the night, but after I became differcult and aggressive they gave them back to me to get me out.

While backing out of the carpark I was briefly distracted and didnt realise the handbrake was off, ended up rolling into a phonebox that was being used at the time, pinning an elderly woman inside for about 6 hours, while I was unconcious at the wheel.

Now the elderly woman is sueing me for mental anguish due to being trapped for so long.

I would like to sue the bar for letting me out of their premises with the keys to my vehicle, fully aware of my high level of intoxication at the time.

Has anyone had a similar case? and if so was it successful?

Eugenics is a pseudo science that followed Darwin’s theory of survival of the fittest.
They argue that in order for men to survive only a selected few should procreate. Because if we let weak procreate they will weaken the entire race. Basically under Eugenics everyone is created different.
“Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler was infamous for eugenics programs which attempted to maintain a "pure" German race through a series of programs that ran under the banner of "racial hygiene". Among other activities, the Nazis performed extensive experimentation on live human beings to test their genetic theories, ranging from simple measurement of physical characteristics to the horrific experiments carried out by Josef Mengele for Otmar von Verschuer on twins in the concentration camps. During the 1930s and 1940s, the Nazi regime forcibly sterilized hundreds of thousands of people whom they viewed as mentally and physically "unfit", an estimated 400,000 between 1934 and 1937. The scale of the Nazi program prompted American eugenics advocates to seek an expansion of their program, with one complaining that "the Germans are beating us at our own game".[13] The Nazis went further, however, killing tens of thousands of the institutionalized disabled through compulsory "euthanasia" programs.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugenics#Eugenics_and_the_state.2C_1890s.E2.80.931945

But Eugenics was partially homegrown right here USA!!!
“The second largest eugenics movement was in the United States. Beginning with Connecticut in 1896, many states enacted marriage laws with eugenic criteria, prohibiting anyone who was "epileptic, imbecile or feeble-minded" from marrying. In 1898 Charles B. Davenport, a prominent American biologist, began as director of a biological research station based in Cold Spring Harbor where he experimented with evolution in plants and animals. In 1904 Davenport received funds from the Carnegie Institution to found the Station for Experimental Evolution. The Eugenics Record Office opened in 1910 while Davenport and Harry H. Laughlin began to promote eugenics.[16]
During the 20th century, researchers became interested in the idea that mental illness could run in families and conducted a number of studies to document the heritability of such illnesses as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. Their findings were used by the eugenics movement as proof for its cause. State laws were written in the late 1800s and early 1900s to prohibit marriage and force sterilization of the mentally ill in order to prevent the "passing on" of mental illness to the next generation. These laws were upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1927 and were not abolished until the mid-20th century. By 1945 over 45,000 mentally ill individuals in the United States had been forcibly sterilized.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugenics#Eugenics_and_the_state.2C_1890s.E2.80.931945
What concerns me is that Eugenics is still being followed right here in the USA.
Modern Psychiatry alleges with out any evidence that the source of mental illness is genetical.
“Compelling evidence exists that disorders including schizophrenia, bipolar
disorder, and autism to name a few have a strong genetic component.”
http://www.psych.org/news_room/press_releases/mentaldisorders0339.pdf
Just as German Psychiatrists told Nazi Germany that it was a scientific fact that he German race was a superior race; Americans are being told that the source of depression is a chemical imbalance with out any scientific proof. This theory is being challenge by many in the scientific community as being pseudo-science.

My concern is that once more modern day pseudo-sciences will destroy morality in society in the name of science?

According to Leviticus 11
From among all the land animals, these are the creatures that you may eat. Any animal that has divided hoofs and is cloven-footed and chews the cud—such you may eat. But among those that chew the cud or have divided hoofs, you shall not eat the following: the camel, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. The rock-badger, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. The hare, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. The PIG, for even though it has divided hoofs and is cloven-footed, it does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean for you.

Is there a part of the bible where God lifted this?

my boyfriends cousin has invited us out next Saturday. i only met her on Tuesday this week and i wasn't keen really. she's dead rowdy and annoying. The worst thing about her is she gets all flirty (in a joking kinda way) with my boyfirend. i know they're cousins etc but theres something wrong about bumpin and grinding with your own cousin. She seems a little "too" fond of him!

Should i go or not?? i don't wanna cause any arguments with my feller, as it's his family after all !!!
