Trial for Texas lawyer accused of murder enters third day

Wednesday, December 3, 2014 

The trial of a former Texas justice of the peace, accused of killing three people in Kaufman County in early 2013, entered its third day this morning. The defendant, Eric Williams, is being tried for one of the three murders, specifically involving the death of Cynthia McClelland.

Media reports indicate the prosecution in the case intends to rest its case today. Prosecutors allege that McLelland was fatally shot by Williams inside her home Easter weekend of 2013. During opening remarks on Monday, the prosecutor stated Williams killed McClelland in a “blizzard” of bullets. She was the spouse of public prosecutor Mike McClelland whom police allege Williams also shot and killed during the same home invasion.

A separate prosecutor, Mark Hasse, was also allegedly killed by Williams in a separate incident. Early on the trial’s first day, a reporter for the Dallas Morning News posted on Twitter that Williams looked, “…like the attorney he once was.” The cases garnered much attention, as initially, authorities considered a wide variety of theories. However, upon further inquiry, their attention ultimately turned to Williams. Police allege Williams and his wife carefully planned the murders as revenge for the prosecutors’ official actions in an earlier case against Eric Williams. Prosecutors have chosen at this time, to only bring the case of Cynthia McClelland’s murder to trial.

Williams’ wife, Kim, also faces capital murder indictments pertaining to the murders. Her trial date has not yet been set.

After McLelland’s and her husband’s deaths, many public figures in the county began attending community meetings with bodyguards over fears of other possible murder attempts. Other public officials in parts of Texas expressed fear during the time when the murders were happening.

High Court of Australia dismisses appeal against conviction, compulsory voting

Wednesday, April 17, 2013 

Last Friday, following over two years of lawsuit over failure to participate in general election, Anders Holmdahl attended a High Full Court of Australia hearing with an audio-link from Canberra to Adelaide, South Australia, claiming voting is a right, not a duty, citing the Australian constitution. However the Justices dismissed the application for leave to appeal against conviction, ruling it had “no prospect of success” over a point that the Commonwealth Electoral Act was enacted within power.

Anders Holmdahl was represented by Kevin Borick, QC, the president of the Australian Criminal Lawyers Association, throughout the process.

Anders Holmdahl cited “fundamental distinction” between the words vote, which he defined as “exercise of free will”; right, “something you are privileged to be granted”; and duty, “something you are required to do”. After a 20-minute discourse with the lawyer representing the applicant, Justice Kenneth Hayne said, “An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospect of success. Special leave to appeal is refused.” and adjourned the Court. Justices Stephen Gageler, Patrick Keane were also present at the hearing and participated in the verbal discourse, also enquiring the lawyer about their reasoning but not specifying reasons other than what Hayne J said. Wikinews contacted both Anders Holmdahl and the High Court and confirmed there was no other documentation of reasons behind the judgment.

The standard High Court procedures involve hearing each matter by a single Justice and only escalating it after a special leave to appeal is granted. The current case had been irregular, as the matter had been escalated to the Full Court (three Justices) directly.

The appeal also had exhausted lower means of appeal before being lodged in High Court; the Supreme Court of South Australia had dismissed it on September 24, 2012. It cited that the Australian Constitution allows each state to enact their own election laws, and the Federal Parliament has the power to make laws “with respect to … matters in respect of which this Constitution makes provision until the Parliament otherwise provides”. The Court concluded that the Commonwealth Electoral Act was legislation enacted within power.

Prior to escalation to the Supreme Full Court of South Australia, in May 2012, a single Justice Gray had forwarded the matter for consideration of Full Court (three Judges) at his discretion. This happened several months after a Magistrate had recorded the conviction following a trial in February 2012. Anders Holmdahl originally pleaded not guilty during his first Magistrates court appearance in December 2011 regarding the August 21, 2010 election.

The electoral system of Australia requires all citizens to enroll. Then they must vote at each general election — election of members of the House of Representatives and Senate of the Parliament of Australia. At the time of the election, Anders Holmdahl was enrolled as an elector on the Commonwealth Electoral Roll for the Division of Hindmarsh.

The High Full Court hearing was a last instance of appeal with further escalation only possible at international level. Anders Holmdahl had decided to take the case before the United Nations Human Rights Council.

War between top lawyers in Greece

Sunday, December 25, 2005 

The famous Greek lawyers, Sakis Kechagioglou and George Nikolakopoulos have been imprisoned in the Athens’ jail of Korydallus, as they were found guilty of graft and corruption. As a result of this, a big scandal within the Greek legal community has been raised through the exposure of illegal actions that judges, lawyers, solicitors and attorneys have done during the previous years. A few weeks ago, after the information published by the journalist Makis Triantafylopoulos in his popular Television show “Zoungla” in Alpha TV, the member of Parliament and lawyer, Petros Mantouvalos was abdicated as members of his office had been involved in illegal graft and corruption. Moreover, top judge Evangelos Kalousis is imprisoned as he found guilty of corruption and degenerate behaviour.

Except from journalists’ research about scandals in the legal Community of Greece, accusations from well-known lawyers and attorneys such as the famous Athens’ lawyer Alexis Kougias, against colleagues have as a result a greater dialogue and discussion in the country upon this important issue.

Find A Consolidation Of Debt Loan: Personal Unsecured Loans With Bad Credit 5 Steps

By Everett Maclachlan

When you have too much debt, it almost feels like you are carrying around 30 or 40 extra pounds on your body. The extra financial weight is always there lurking, even when you are not trying to take out a loan or apply for a low-interest rate credit card. However, when you do need to borrow money or qualify for credit, suddenly the weight of your situation becomes all-too-clear.

There are many types of debt, including mortgage debt, auto loans, student loans, department store cards and of course credit card debt. In terms of their effect on your FICO (credit) score, credit card debt is by far the worst in the eyes of creditors.

It is not at all uncommon these days for people to have $10,000, $20,000, $30,000 or more in credit card debt. Much of this is high-interest debt, which makes it particularly hard to pay down. Making only the monthly minimum payments is not enough – doing only that would mean most people would never get out of debt during their lifetimes. The more you try to pay it down, the more the debt seems to add up.

One way out is a consolidation-of-debt loan. This type of loan works by your taking out a single, low-interest loan that you use to pay down the credit card debt. The challenge is that, if you have a bad credit score, it can be hard to take out a personal unsecured loan.

If you need a consolidation-of-debt loan, personal unsecured loans may be the way to go. Here are 5 steps to getting funded:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxEFBCW3WjE[/youtube]

1. Get a clear picture of your financial standing:

If you really want to get out of debt once and for all, you will need to take clear stock of your financial standing. This means really facing the facts about how much debt you have and at what interest rate. Rather than just throwing more money at your debt with a new loan, you will want to take a calculated approach to getting yourself out of debt.

2. Know the landscape of your credit report:

Next, before you start applying for loans, be sure to run your credit report with at least 2-3 of the top credit bureaus. Note the reasons for your bad credit score. And, be sure to report any errors on your report so that you can get them removed.

3. Put together a plan for repayment of your personal unsecured loan:

Next, you will want to put together a plan. Once you take out this new loan, how will you repay it? After all, the goal is to get yourself out of debt, not stay in it forever.

4. Build a lender list:

Now, it is time to find your lender. Make sure to do searches for “bad debt personal unsecured loan lender.” You will want a list of at least 4 or 5 lenders before you begin applying to any of them.

5. Apply using strong negotiation tactics:

There are two ways to apply for a personal loan: passively or proactively. Don’t just be passive, filling out the application and doing the minimum to get approved. Instead, be proactive. Be ready to address any concerns the lender may have about your credit report. Be prepared to show the lender that you are credit-worthy; show your employment history, residential history, and any other factors that can help your case.

Take these 5 steps to getting approved for an unsecured personal consolidation loan.

Study at the University of Toronto says text messaging helps with grammar

Wednesday, August 2, 2006 

A study by researchers at the University of Toronto found that teenagers demonstrate a strong command of grammar in their text messaging.

The study found that while informal forms such as acronyms like “lol” (laughing out loud) are used in text messaging, more formal language constructs that are not usually used in spoken language were also used in messaging. For instance, the word “said” was used in messaging instead of “was like”, a common informal spoken phrase.

The study found that instant messaging language does mirror patterns in speech, but also uses constructs from a wide range of diction.

Prof. Sali Tagliamonte, a professor of linguistics at the University of Toronto, said parents and teachers shouldn’t be concerned that this new medium is corrupting young people’s grammar. “I don’t think parents have to worry, because they’re really showing that they are creative and that they have a mastery of the language. They are not using ruinous language,” he said. “What these kids are doing is showing us that they have a really good command of the English language, so much so that I was really blown away by how fluidly they operate,” he added.

The research was presented today at the annual meeting of the Linguistics Association of Canada and the United States.

Home Wind Power Generators Simplified – You Can Build A Wind Turbine & Use Wind Energy To Generate Free Energy And Save Money

by

Chris T. James

Are you always looking for ways to be more energy efficient and save money! The most plentiful source of energy on earth is the sun. The sun provides a staggering amount of power in the form of wind energy and direct solar radiation. Sadly, it goes largely unused, yet it’s free! Here, we’ll discuss how you can tap into that incredible potential and why you might want to build your own home made wind power generator (a.k.a. wind turbine or windmill) on a shoestring budget with tools you already have around the house.

With all the talk of global warming these days, and, for US residents, the looming Electrical Utility de-regulation in early 2010, people are becoming more conscientious in their use of electric power. So it makes a lot of sense to seek out ways to use the sun’s unlimited wind power potential to augment your family’s energy needs. A wind turbine built correctly and positioned properly to take full advantage of your home’s access to wind energy is a great way to do your part for the environment, not to mention your wallet!

Your home’s physical location and the surrounding terrain are critical factors in the feasibility of generating enough power to make a home made wind power generator worthwhile. It is vital that you do some research to determine the average wind velocity for your specific location or area. Fortunately, this information is available free from a number of reliable sources including the National Renewable Energy Laboratory website.

That site has an incredibly useful calculating tool that literally allows you to see a satellite image of your property and locate your simulated wind turbine at any number of specific points on your property to determine the best placement to maximize your ability to convert wind energy to electrical power your family can use. Imagine being the first on your block to be generating free energy from the wind!

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS_9VWp4JmY[/youtube]

I’m sure you’re wondering what it will cost you to harness the power of the wind. Well, believe it or not, that’s the great part. It will cost you a lot less than you think.

But before we get to that, first, you’ll need a guide that provides the following information in a clear and concise fashion:

1. Primer on wind energy basics

2. Wind maps of your area

3. Comprehensive parts list

4. Information on where to get the parts needed to build a wind turbine

5. Step-by-step plans for building your wind generator

6. Plenty of pictures and diagrams

The second requirement is something I can’t help you with. You will need some spare time (not a lot) and very basic mechanical skills. (If you have to hire someone to change a light bulb, you should probably stop here!)

You’re probably thinking it’s going to set you back thousands of dollars (US) to do this but, amazingly, you’d be wrong. Now, you could spend many thousands of dollars on a wind power project if you wanted to but the key is you don’t have to!

A well written guide that provides all of the information you need will cost you less than $100 (US) from a reputable source and the parts you’ll need, most of which can be purchased at your neighborhood hardware store will cost less than $200 (US).

If you’re someone who doesn’t just sit around and complain and you get a kick out of using your wits to save money, building your own wind energy system can be great fun, save you lots of money and do something good for the environment. That’s a great combination! If you’d like to learn a lot more about this topic or products that fill the requirements I’ve recommended above see the link below.

Of all the wind power products on the market my top pick offers valuable bonuses and a step-by-step how-to video series. For more information please paste the following address into your browser: http://www.trusted4info.com/best/energy
