A case decided by a jury in Rochester presents a glaring example of why choosing a lawyer to represent you in a serious personal injury matter should be a far different process than choosing a laundry detergent. A jury awarded the plaintiff in that case $1.9 Million Dollars against his former lawyer, a man who in recent years has flooded the airwaves with his advertisements proclaiming that he is the meanest, toughest, smartest lawyer in town and will always get you a big cash settlement. What the trial of that case revealed was that contrary to the claims of maximum cash made in the advertisements, the client was talked into settling for only a fraction of what the case was actually worth. Even...

This article is about people who are addicted to illegal drugs, not people who become addicted to prescription drugs that were originaly prescribed by a licensed physician for a legitimate reason.

As far as I am concerned, that is a bunch of hogwash. Drug addicts are most definitely criminals.

But what's the main reason behind little girls preferring Bratz dolls over their formidable competition? The answer is simple: coolness. While a lot of moms out there seem to avoid buying Bratz because of their diva looks, the excess of makeup on the dolls' faces, their bad attitude expressions and the "trashy" clothes they wear; these precise features are what make little girls (and not-so-little...
