Effect of Emancipation Section 4(e)(1) states that an emancipated minor shall have the rights and responsibilities of an adult, except for constitutional and statutory age requirements regarding voting, use of alcoholic beverages, and other health and safety regulations based on age. The rights and responsibilities of the emancipated minor include (but are not limited to) all of the following:
The right to enter into enforceable contracts, including apartment leases. The right to sue or be sued in his or her own name. The right to retain his or her own earnings. The right to establish a separate domicile. The right to act autonomously, and with the rights and responsibilities of an adult, in all business relationships, including, but not limited to, property transactions and obtaining accounts for utilities, except for those estate or property matters that the court determines may require a conservator or guardian ad litem. The right to earn a living, subject only to the health and safety regulations designed to protect those under the age of majority regardless of their legal status. The right to authorize his or her own preventive health care, medical care, dental care, and mental health care, without parental knowledge or liability. The right to apply for a driver's license or other state licenses for which he or she might be eligible. The right to register for school. The right to marry. The right to apply to medical assistance program administered under the social welfare act, if needed. The right to apply for other welfare assistance, including general assistance and aid to families with dependant children. The right, if a parent, to make decisions and give authority in caring for his or her own minor child. The right to make a will.
Or Kansas: 38-108. District court may confer rights of majority.
That the district courts for the several counties in this state shall have authority to confer upon minors the rights of majority, concerning contracts and real and personal property, and to authorize and empower minors to purchase, hold, possess and control in their own person and right, and without the intervention or control of a guardian or trustee, any goods, chattels, rights, interests in lands, tenements and effects by such minor lawfully acquired or inherited; and such minor shall have full power to hold, convey and dispose of the same, and to make contracts and be subject to all the liabilities incident thereto, sue and be sued, and in all respects to exercise and enjoy all rights of property and of contracts in the same manner and to the same extent as persons at the age of majority.
Or numerous other states... I did not check them all, so there may be an exception:
At 17, you can't smoke, you can't vote, you can't be in the military, you can only work certain hours, and (in most cases) your parents are still legally responsible for your actions...
They point out the fact that terms like "magic", "mana", etc are common occult terms. That seems accurate to me.
Then they point out that the game is dangerous because it can become addictive and lead soemone's life getting out of balance.... of course, this is just like *ANY* other pasttime.
Lots of people watch football for hours on end, some sat through all 3 LOTR movies recently, others get a "great new game" and get buried in it for a while.
Yes, because the Russians believe the data is inconclusive and the Kyoto Protocols are a thinly veiled attempt at destroying industrialization in the first world while NOT puttin limits or covering a third of the world's population (China & India).
Why the heck is the parent modded Troll not once, but twice!?!? If anything it should be Informative or Insightful.
The Republican party is very anxious to prevent people hearing about what they did in Florida. If they learned that the GOP was fixing the vote long before the election they might be less willing to believe the claims that the count was also rigged.
I do not know whether it was the case in this instance, but there are a couple of right wing groups that ask their members to mod down stories that they consider 'off message'.
Yes, it's all a conspiracy. Now that you know, you'll have to die.
Of course, it's nothing like in the 2002 election when the Democrats set up the "Freedom Rides" because Minnesota had same day voting registration without confirmation.
You present two pieces of mail with your name and "your" new Minnesota address on them. Then you present ID, it can be from out of state since "Hey, you just moved there!". Viola, you're registered. Of course, nobody bothered to do central validation, so the Democrats chartered some buses and did this district by district.
Uh... there have always been the "noindex" rules on all of the Whitehouse's pages.
It has been this way since I thought to check it (Summer 2000)... and it probably started much sooner than that. I think the point of it is to NOT archive speeches, press releases, etc anywhere but the places that they go out to and/or Presidential Libraries.
Wasn't Jane born in this space "between the endpoints" on the philotic (sp?) threads?
It seems like you could bounce around data relatively easily... it would be another issue on determining and monitoring which data was where when the time came to actually use it...
September of last year, I bought two new cell phones, one for me, one for my wife. My cell phone was a cheapie at $30, because I figured that I would replace it this year. My wife's, on the other hand, was one of those $250 models that does all kinds of nifty stuff, so I sprung for the 2-year service plan for $60. Not a bad deal, right?
Well, 9 months later, the antenna breaks clean off the phone. We take it in to get it fixed, but they refuse because the antenna is an "accessory".
I challenge them and point out the facts that A) it does not detatch from the phone in any way (other than breaking it) and B) it was included with phone itself and is *NOT* listed an accessory on the box.
After three months of attempting to talk with the local manager, the general manager, and the service manager, we sent it elsewhere for repairs.
Radio Shack will be called to small claims court and is going to receive a bill for the repairs ($30), the service plan ($60), whatever legal costs we incur as a result of this, and (ideally) 3 months of cell phone service we were prevented from using ($90).
psst... If you want to make a comparison between the Department of Homeland Defense and something else, you should probably compare it with the Department of Defense instead of ONE of their buildings (the Pentagon).
There were nearly 150k in troops in Iraq, and 37k in South Korea. I won't even bother going into anything else.
The Department of Defense is *MUCH* larger than the Department of Homeland Security.
Exactly... just wait until Congress realizes that they have 41 MILLION email addresses/phone numbers that people have an incentive to keep up to date and accurate.
Then along comes a budget deficit and they can sell them... oh, wait.
I caught this a few months ago on USA or SciFi. It was pretty funny.
Unfortunately, there was David Hassellhoff, but no bouncing blond lifeguards....

The RFP (Request for Proposal) should be public information. They're not always easy to find, but they're out there.

Bullshit. Something becomes a right if some people think it would be a good idea, and arrange for this view to become dominant in the society they live in.
If it can be given by the dominant people, it can be taken away by the same people.
Slashdot Mirror
In most US states, as long as at least one of the parties in a phone conversation knows about the taping, the taping doesn't break the law.
Nope, federal law requires both parties to know *UNLESS* there's a warrant authorizing such a thing (ie. wiretap).
This is why Linda Tripp was prosectuted for recording her phone conversations with Monica Lewinsky.

what made you think you could own property?
As a minor, he can't legally own anything or enter into a contract anyway (atleast in the US)...
Therefore, they'll probably go after whoever's credit card he used to buy it.

Why couldn't they write the law such that any company that does business in the USA must obey our laws?
Because then China would do the same thing.
I was recently let go from one position on 11/13.
After busting my ass and kicking out over 100 resumes, I got 3 job offers (1 short-term contract, 1 long term contract, 1 perm) within 3 weeks.
I had to take a pay cut, but I took the perm position *and* the short-term contract *and* ended up with a position that I like quite a bit more.
I started my new position on 12/15. Total days unemployed ~30.
I have a degree in Electrical Engineering and 3 years software experience. The positions are there, you have to look for them.
