Politics & Government - 4 December 2007

My landlord was was informed beforehand that was available to lease for 6 months. They presented me with a 1 year contract in which I crossed out the "year long" dates and input the "6 month" dates. I then sign and dated the contract and return it. The contract still required a signature from the landlord and a date. Now after 6 months the landlord states that I still have 6 more months left on the contract. If he signed and dated the contract after I altered it, does that mean he agreed to my adjustments? He specifically knew I would not be available for the full year and still urged me to stay until I had to leave.

I am that business. I own a taxicab Company. All of my cabs are not smoking. However, every time I hire a smoker, he/she ends up smoking in one of my cabs, getting ashes all over the place and burning holes in the carpet ( not to mention making it smell like an ashtray on wheels) I fired 3 guys for this already this year. I just don't want to waist the advertising money on hiring somebody else who I will have to fire because of smoking.

Watch the ANC-WR Video on Youtube...Los Angeles, CA - A video documenting the achievements of the Armenian National Committee - Western Region (ANC-WR) has been posted on www.youtube.com. This video may be subject to censorship by the Turkish government because it includes numerous references to the Armenian Genocide. According to Eurasia Daily Monitor, a new set of Turkish government regulations may criminalize access to websites and internet content that does not conform to government-approved standards. The article goes on to state that these latest restrictions certainly are not in keeping with the openness and transparency required by the European Union.

"From denying the genocide to censoring our youtube videos, we see the same pattern of the Turkish government seeking to subvert freedom of expression and twist historical facts," stated Andrew Kzirian Executive Director of the ANC-WR.

My exhusband filed for custody of our children and lost about a year ago. The judge granted him all summer for visitation though. We live in TX and ex is in MI. He took my daughter last summer and only had her 10 days out of the whole 3 months the rest of the time she was with his parents in WI not even the same state. My ex took their social security money and then shipped them off how bad is that, Is there any thing I can have done to prevent him from using the children as pawns just so he can get at their money for a few months?Since my daughter does not want to go stay with her dad and she is 16 will the courts hear her? Also how will this impact my 12 year old who is governed by the same order. He would rather stay home as well. Is it likely that a judge would at least shorthen visitation? Perhaps address the issue of the money? What would be the best way to proceed?

In order to have a valid case, a plantiff must establish that the defendant owed the plaintiff a duty of care; (2) breached that duty; (3) by so doing caused damage to the plaintiff; and (4) that damage must not have been too remote.

What does it mean when it says the "damage must not have been too remote" - what is an example of this?

Can anyone point me in the direction to find a law which states that a manufacturer will treat it's dealer network with similar pricing? I am concerned that I work with a manufacturer that is offering my competition better pricing and I want to know if there is a law which prohibits this.
Thank you

Lets say if someone was tried for murder, but no body was found. If the case is strong enough it can go to trial. The Jury then finds him not guilty. Lets say five years down the line, the missing person comes back and it appears that he was never murder. Then the person that was already tried for his crime really kills him for real, like poising him or something. He can't legally be charged with killing him because he was already tried for killing them and can't be tried for the same crime twice.

I do believe it is infringement on personal liberties, but often people believe that hitting their kids is good for the child despite any research to support this. The opposite is true, the more a child is hit the more likely they are to be unproductive members of a society.
Should the society protect children from their uneducated parents?
