A university student failed to catch drips from a harsh toilet cleaner
after setting it on two of my countertops, ruining both. She'd been given a container for the toilet brush and warned of chemical damages onto rug. She claims she only put the bottle onto counters and saw no drips. Some was even found on the top part
of a toilet seat where my kids may have sat on it. When told about it all on the phone, her only comment was, You're trying to make me feel bad." I only wanted her to know what damage was done and asked if she had insurance (renters or such). She said she'd check into it, but instead she quit the job and told me she considers the matter over that she'd followed directions by not getting any on the rug. (The bottle warns against setting on counters, etc.). Do I have a court case? Should I go small claims or civil? What if after notification of hearing, she's a "No
Show" and possibly has no other job. (She was a bank teller five
years til Dec. 2005).

I've heard of a technique called the poor man's copyright. It is supposedly a way to copyright your unique idea or information without having to pay for a formal copyright. The technique is to write out your idea or information you want to copyright, seal it in an envelope, and mail it to yourself. this will date the contents of the envelope and supposedly copyright them. My question is, would something like this actually hold up in a court of law, or is it just an urban legend?

My mother in law filed our taxes as she's been doing for many years as she knows how better than we do. We trusted her until now. However, we're going through a rough patch with her, she never told us how much we got back the past 2 years (we had to get an extention for year before last so we got both years done at the same time), and we just found out that this past year's return was deposited into her account (only account it could have been deposited on) and the other year was in the form of a check. We never were told wether she got a check or not so we looked into it with the IRS they sent us transcripts. And they said the check has been mailed out. Now we need to find out if it was cashed. If so, it was without our consent and knowledge, so we have the option of either working it out with her ourselves, or press charges. I would like to know what is the penalthy she could get for such a criminal offense. Any help would be appreciated. I'm just curious about it. Total amount=$4578

I run a personal, non-commercial blog (with some ads) on my own domain. I was solicited (by email) by a sales rep on behalf of Company X. In previous blog entries, I have spoken poorly of Company X specifically and Company X's industry as a whole. The email contains only the correspondence and lacks any terms of use or disclaimers about reproducing the content. I have posted the original email and my response word-for-word (I have removed the sender's last name, and altered the sender's email address and phone number). It is my understanding that: (1) email is considered insecure and non-private by the vast majority of internet users, (2) it is common knowledge among average people that online communications are neither secure nor private, and (3) claims to privacy or usage restrictions against the recipient of an email are invalid and unenforceable. If relevant, this is in Pennsylvania. Thanks!

So what are the rules and how-to's for emancipation, and if anyone knows them for the state of Arizona, that would help much as well.

If you come at me with the argument that it's the woman's body and she can do with it what she wants, then ask your self if it is your body that is going to end up in the dumpster in the back alley.
Why did feminest groups not want Scott peterson to be charged with double homicide when the person they are trying to protect, a women, was brutally murdered? Insted they wanted to selfishly protect their own political interests.
