Law & Ethics - February 2007

Iraq was attacked---fine
People are being killed-dead do not need food or education
How about over 2 million refugees hosted by Jordon and Syria? about a million each.
Are we creating another episode of Afghanistan?
Are we welling to have the next generation of Iraq uneducated?
How about their current situation? What is next? Are we suppose to do anything at all? How about the women, children and elderly, and sick people? What is thier fault? Why should they go through such hard time? Why are we sending people back to the stone age and later blame them for ignorance why why? Can some one please explain? For whoever sake, anyone with resources, please do something before it is too late.

In Kentucky there is a law that says it’s illegal to carry "Ice cream" in your pockets! The law covers any kind of sweets, from cake to sugar. Why? Well in the old days when the most common transportation was riding a horse, some horse thieves found a loop hole. They could claim that any horse was theirs, when the owner said no its mine, a third party made each person stand a few feet away and whoever the horse followed was determined the owner. Horses love sweets so if the thief had a pocket full of sugar, or whatever the horse was more likely to follow them. When the law makers found out what was going on it was put on the books, and has remained there ever since.
what do you think, agree or disagree? discuss the morality or type of justice involved with this issue. are there constitutional protections in place regarding this issue? what r the constitutional protections? r the constitutional protections adequate, should they be changed? how? y?

Save on gas. Decrease polution. Roads safer. Teens would have to take a bus or adults drive them places, so more supervision.

Can anyone help me find a legal aid lawyer in london
SE1. I am being threatened with eviction from council. I have had the tenancy since Aug 2005, and i have spent a fortune on decorating it. I get full hb & rates allowance. The flat is not furnished as i haven't had the money to do it. But i spent £1000 on a professional decorator to do it up for me. The reason i haven't physically moved in is because my mum suffers from acute emphysema and i am supporting her. She stays in Edinburgh and i can get doctors letter confirming this. However, the council have said they are going to evict me as i am not staying in the property
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do. The council are not listening to me and i am very worried at the prospect of losing my flat.

If you do you are not alone do you know where the meat in your lunch comes from? was it from an inbred chicken fed hormones in a 1 x 1 cage, is your school uniform made in a sweatshop somewhere in a third world country where 10 year olds are spending hours making things for little or no pay maybe they are even slaves, do you wonder about the war in iraq how our forces can be just as cruel as osama and alqida? Do you know how many adults and aouthoritie figures will refuse to listen to a minor simply because we were born in a later year than them. It's not our fault that we are forced to use objects or eat foods that were made in cruel und unnecasary means it's just that there are so many things that were made like this it is impossible to completely avoid them. did you know there are over 250 million minors working in sweatshops around the world? stand up and

She was in front of me, both of us turning right. I thought she went, so I looked to the left so see if I was clear. I hit the gas & she was still in front of me. I probably went 10mph max. I didn’t have enough distance to pick up any more speed than that. She asked me if I was OK and I asked her if she was OK. Everyone was fine. She works for car insurance…an auto claims supervisor. Could she be lying because she knows the ins & outs of car insurance? I haven't been told the details of her 'injury'. What should I do? Sit in front of her work & secretly videotape her?!

I am a professional medical provider, I am not a computer saavy person, I went to medical school to help heal people..
The practice where I am currently employed has just purchased a very expensive computer program which is by no means user friendly, they are stating that all the providers (except two that are older 70's) HAVE to learn this program or they will be fired.
They have provided VERY little training and have not lessened the patient load to allow us time to try and learn this program.
This was not a condition of employment when I was hired, they just sprung it on everyone. - This program is designed to eliminate all paper charting,so this office would be completely paperless.
I have been a medical provider for over 15 years and have never been exposed to this.
In your opinion is this legal, or can I fight it. If they are making an exception for two providers they should be willing to make one for those who are struggling to learn this. My patients come first. HELP!

Last year I won physical and legal custody of my 12 year from her mother who lives in PA. I plan on moving to Texas in July from New York state. My question is can her mother who only has visitation rights, petition to stop me from moving out of NYS even though she does not live here? What are the steps I need to take to modify my custody rights in NYS? Could the judge order me to stay in NYS just because it is in the best interest of the child even though her mother is a resident of Pennsylvania and we dont have any sort of agreement where I have to stay in the same state?

I dont have the money for a lawyer because I spent it all trying to get custody of her.
