Law & Ethics - October 2006

I am above the allowed absences with my employer. Most of my absences were during my pregnancy and emercancy room visits. At the end of this month I am required to have a heart procedure which required me to be off work three days. I have handed in two doctors notes. My employer notified me IN WRITING that if i took these three days off that I would be terminated.I used all of my FMLA with my pregnancy. I have contacted several attontry's and becuase Michigan is an at will employer there is nothing I can do. I was notifed of this termination about three weeks ago.. now this week(aweeek before my procedure) I am gettin the feeling that they are going to let me come back. To be honest I do not want to for several reasons and one being i fear they will find something else to fire me for so that I am unable to collect unemployment. If they do not put it in writing or whatever can I still not come back and collect unemployment? i still can'yt get how an wmployer can get away with playing ga

My roommate is trying to move out with 5 months left on the lease and me and my other three roommates don't want to live with a stranger. I know my landlord has to accept subleasing applications if they pass the requirements. What can I do to block anyone from moving in. P.S. my roommate is very stubborn and will not reason with us.

Those protecting the US Mexico border say the Bush Administration is carrying out a secret effort to create a one-hemisphere government for the Americas-- behind the backs of American leaders!

About 1,000 documents obtained in a Freedom of Information Act show the White House is engaging in secret relations with Mexico and Canada outside the U.S. Constitution, says Minuteman columnist and author Dr. Jerome Corsi.

"The documents give clear evidence that the Bush administration is creating a 'shadow government,'" Corsi said. "We have hundreds of pages of e-mails from U.S. executive branch
administrators to the Mexican and Canadian bureaucracies. "This is totally outside the U.S. Constitution, virtually an executive branch coup d'etat" he said.

"They are sharing their laws and regulations so we can 'harmonize' and 'integrate' our laws into a North American structure, not a USA structure."

In the state of Florida they are trying to pass a law that would deem Hazing illegal and it would be a felony....

What r your thoughts on this.....

There was a Chicago incident where high school junor and senoir girls rallied after game off school property and..a hazing incident got out of control....girls began fighting, they made the junoirs eat feces, and it was found that some parents supplied alcohol for the minors....this happened a couple of years ago and was vidoe tapped....

Hazing is still practiced on college campus as well...

What are your thoughts on this....
Keep in mind in most cases that these people volunteer to do these things to become apart of a organization...

Pro-Lifers say "Abortion is murder", Pro-Choicers do not see it as murder. Homicide is the act of killing a human being. The Zygote, Embyro or Fetus is a living being with it's own unique Human DNA set. So to terminal the pregnancy is to removal of the Zygote, Embyro or Fetus, that is not likely to survive or the abortion procedure would terminate the human being-life of the Zygote, Embryro or Fetus.
For all intents and purposes abortion is indeed a homicide.
