If you are an employee, you should be safe from legal action. A book on casuistry (ethics as a "science") put out by the Catholics said that you aren't morally to blame either. If you are an independent contractor, then you have a problem.

O.K. if she likes it. We had a friendly jeweler, who gave us an introduction to a wholesaler, so we bought up big. My wife now regrets the enormous two-tiered cluster of diamonds - it is too impractical. She rarely wears it. That is why I say: let her choose. She may feel embarrassed by a geeky ring.
We may do things differently here in Oz. We bought an engagement ring and wedding ring as a matching pair. No producing an engagement ring bought without her input. After all, she has to wear them with pride.
If you will wear a band as well, it can be iridium if you prefer. I disliked the idea, and was thought a bit strange.
A sect is a sect of something. Scientology is one man claiming he has all the answers. I suffer from inherited depression. Scientology claims it has the answer to depression - but it is in the book, and I have to buy the book. I have seen enough cock-and-bull answers already to believe in it. The most recent is somebody who guarantees interpreting my own dreams (I don't have any) - if I buy the book. I know a fundraising motive when I see one.
Here in Australia, we had a troublesome reactionary politician. According to our then P.M., our Pacific neighbours suggested he take her out and shoot her. He replied that we don't do it that way here. If a country with those values on free speech has to ban something, it must be pretty evil.
I am not making any statements about them, or whether they are a religion. They do have standards, though. When a former officer made statements about what they would have done to Nicole Kidman, they said that the person quoted had been thrown out by them. I don't know why anything from a "former" member was ever quoted in the first place. Clearly he had no authority to speak on their behalf. But they had expelled him.
No, I don't know what they believe. But I do know that they call themselves a "Church" and are on the list for Marriage Encounter. How can they be a "Church" if they are not Christian? More misrepresentation?
I don't really understand where Scientology stands. Years ago, in Victoria, Australia, when Scientology first made their presence felt (and that of the E-meter) it was considered harmful to the young people subjected to it, and prompted our first Psychological Practices Act, which required all psychologists to be registered, and specifically outlawed Scientology and the E-meter. Now that last bit is no longer in the Act.
Marriage Encounter, which my wife and I investigated a year or two ago, is conducted by the Catholic Church, and is presented from the point of view of a Christian outlook on marriage. Now it is open to all denominations, including Scientology. Surely the Catholics would not support a "Church" that is on the side of the Devil? I wonder if Scientologist couples find Catholic doctrine to their taste.
I try to accept any denomination who call themselves Christian, but what I have heard about Scientology is all negative.
Some can, some can't. I did a job aptitude test, and that was one of my negatives.
My mother-in-law was the perfect example of the female brain. She would ring up another woman, and as soon as the other was on the line, she would start talking nineteen to the dozen. To a man, it was plain rude, but it worked. Half her brain was talking; the other half was listening, and the woman on the other end was doing the same. She never spoke to me like that. Something made her understand that I couldn't do it. Men's brains aren't built that way. In computer terms, I suppose that men's brains handle info like a serial cable, while women's brains are more like a parallel cable. My wife uses the switchboard analogy. But in practice, the ability varies.
My wife keeps telling me that women have multitasking brains, and men don't. I doubt that multitasking changes anything, but a man cannot handle muultitasking as well.
Perhaps in Soviet Korea, but I thought that the students were being stupid not defending the writs to begin with. Now they all have default judgments against them, which don't require the RIAA to prove a thing. What do they say when the Sheriff knocks on their door?
Fair comment, but here in Oz, it isn't necessarily wise to sue just anybody. If there was a real doubt about who was liable, and they fail against creative Commons, they will get the loser to pay creative Commons' costs. But if their case against C.C. was absolutely hopeless, they will be left paying those costs themselves.
And why the family? What damage have they suffered? It is the girl who should sue, if anyone. And I would almost join the youth worker as a defendant, just to teach him a lesson.

Don't let your wife have the keys!

He did say that he only looked at Boston, not DC.
Well, how did the U.S. Government vote?
In the USA, it is the other way around. The commerce controls the Government. Just as the RIAA gets what it wants through Congress. Just as the oil interests killed the development of a hybrid car a while back. Just as in a report I read, a vendor of a deadly contaminated product controlled the Town Council, including the health inspector, and kept selling the stuff and killing people.

How did the USA vote on the appeals?

Because it advertises flaws to hackers? I am sure that hackers keep a close watch on such antics.
What MIT did was to silence whistle-blowers, exactly as in the Texas credit card case.

If you don't need Vista, if you don't need KDE4, don't let it worry you. KDE3 suits my need perfectly.
Or at least you need to go beyond the local police. Here in Australia, I went to the Federal Police over child porn.

I didn't take it personally. Any doctrine that is outlawed by Act of Parliament in a democratic country cannot be beneficial.

Vote how the Government tells you - or else!
