This is a pretty clear cut case of negligence. Leaving your child unattended in the woods where brown bears are known to be located is negligence, plain and simple. The fact that it is common in asian cultures to discipline children in hor

The way popular music is produced today, the artists performing almost never write their own music. Songs are shopped around by songwriter/producers to music labels, and label executives say "yes, that song properly portrays the

If you paid it weekly, or even daily electronically, this would be a non-issue. Joe doesn't have enough cash to buy food? Tough shit; he'll get $20 in his account tomorrow and can buy breakfast at 12:01am if he's hungry. Ev

That's a silly assertion to make. Apple is well known for secrecy, and any prototype vehicles driving on the streets are not likely to be branded with their logo. How do you know they aren't already driving vehicles on the roads
