Law & Ethics - March 2007

Feb 23rd The FCC did away with the requirements for all ham radio to include Morse code. I know in the ham community this is a problem especially with older hams that have earned 20 WPM code speeds....what you all think I personally am happy Code was dropped and anyone who says now ham will become CB has never seen hams police hams!

Could anyone tell me what the benefits of an International patent over a European patent are.

I developed a new invention in a European country which I would like to use in Latin America.

Would you advice me to choose an International patent or a European patent and why?

Thank you for your help!

SB 861 is the breed specific legislation regarding "unnamed" breeds of dog who are "known" to be violent/vicious(ie: pit bulls, rottweilers, german chepherds, etc.) mandating that they HAVE to be spayed or neutered. I am not a supporter of this bill, although I understand the point, but am curious if it was passed. Thoughts and opinions also welcome...

What is wrong with people that they compare a fair trial that gave their son a light conviction to the lynching of black people in the south? She complained that she would only get to see her son a couple times a week when the families of the little girl and driver never get to see their loved one again.

The sparks from the broken line ignite a grass fire. The fire spreads until it reaches a barn one mile away. The barn houses dynamite , and the burning barn explodes, causing part of the roof to fall on and injure a passing motorist Jim. Can Jim recover damages from Ruth? Why or why not?

Normally, the overtime rate in many countries during regular days is 150% and during rest days & holidays also 150% but in some countries the overtime rate during rest days and holidays is 200%, sometimes even more depending on the management in order to encourage people to work overtime even if the labor law is fixing it at a lower rate. In case higher overtime rate is already being practiced for a long time, is it still legal to suddenly change to labor law rate just by issuing a memo?
