Dallas High School Teacher Faces Criminal Charges

Filed under: Uncategorized — ruamnesty @ 8:49 pm

In some rather sordid criminal defense related news, Why is it there are so many sick people out there? The worst of the worst are the ones who do harm to children. So many of these predators position themselves in close proximity to their victims.
These kinds of people have always been around, but never before in our history have we been made so aware of them, and never have the things they do been exposed to so much daylight. Never before in our history have we gone after them the way we do now. As an aside if you are in search of a solid Dallas criminal attorney then by all means take a look at this leading firm, and they also do DWI as well as DUI lawyer cases as well. All in all, this reminds me of a recent Seattle case.
According to the U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s website story; Dallas high school teacher arrested on federal child pornography charge, posted June 9, 2010, a Dallas English teacher at Woodrow Wilson High School was arrested last Tuesday in a criminal complaint.
The charges allege that the teacher was receiving child pictures. The arrest was described in an announcement issued by U.S. Attorney James T. Jacks of the Northern District of Texas. The charges are under investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). If you are in need of a Seattle DUI attorney then you may want to check in with this particular firm, they are quite good, and have been handling DWI and DUI related cases in Seattle for some time now.
The teacher in question is 44 year old Jon Leslie Lyons, who appeared on Wednesday in front of U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeff Kaplan. Lyons sits in jail as he awaits a June 11detention hearing.
ICE’s website reports that according to the affidavit filed with the complaint, last month a Dallas Independent School District (DISD) employee informed ICE that child pornography may have been exposed on a DISD computer being used by Jon Lyons.
The website also reported that shortly afterward, an ICE special agent met with the DISD employee who contacted authorities after seeing images of girls

Some facts and fiction about designer furniture overall

Filed under: General News — ruamnesty @ 7:19 pm

Ah, the topic of custom and designer furniture, one of my all time favorite subjects, and leathercraft is also a hibby of mine ever since I lived over in North Carolina, the source of it all for me, as there are some very good leathercraft artisans over there that create all sorts of custom and designer stuff. Speaking of that, Everyone has heard of Chippendale style chairs, which became the rage around 1755. The seat was usually rectangular and upholstered. If you have an authentic Chippendale chair with original paint and upholstery, you could fund a child’s education at an Ivy-league school!
By the way, the most expensive piece ever sold at auction, according to Antique-Antiques, was a piece similar to a Chippendale antique secretary that was originally made by the famous Goddard-Townsend family of cabinet-makers. It is believed by experts that no more than 7 were ever made. The comparable piece (a Nicholas Brown antique secretary) built around 1760 sold at a Christie’s auction direct for $12,100,000! These custom pieces kind of remind me of Designer Furniture if you know what I mean, only better made. Then again, they also sort of remind me of the vaunted Shabby Chic Furniture as well.
Antique-Antiques notes that that sum is the highest price ever paid at auction for a piece of American furniture.
Nowadays in many homes we see the Lazy-Boy type rocker or recliner but with designer lighting as well. It’s interesting that this furniture all in all seems to mimic the bodies of so many typical Americans: heavy, padded, overstuffed!

The various Benefits of Settlement Loans

Filed under: General News — ruamnesty @ 8:05 pm

Settlement loans are one solution you should consider if you are involved in a
personal injury lawsuit and experiencing money problems. Personal injury claims
often last for months, some much longer. Because of your injuries, you may not be
able to work. Your bank account is shrinking, and the stress is affecting your
ability to focus on winning your lawsuit. Settlement funding companies deal
specifically with issues like these, offering solutions so that you can move forward
with your claim while living a normal life.

When funds are running short, you don’t have time to wade through red tape and
paperwork trying to get a loan from your bank. Most will not loan money against a
pending settlement anyway, so your best solution is to consider settlement loans.
You want to avoid settling with insurance companies if at all possible, because they
will usually pay you only a small portion of what you are actually entitled to. It
is best to continue your lawsuit and see it through to completion when possible, and
litigation financing companies help you do just that.

How do settlement loans work? You can get a cash advance ranging anywhere from a
few hundred dollars to tens of thousands, depending on your pending settlement. If
approved, you often get the money that same day. Your lawyer will submit the
application to the settlement funding company, who will then review it to determine
if you qualify. No out-of-pocket expense to you, and no recourse if you do not win
your lawsuit - which means you owe nothing. You only repay the money when you have
your settlement money in hand.

While involved in a lawsuit, not only do you have the regular household utilities
and other expenses you must pay, but now there are likely medical bills on top of
that. settlement loans are made for people like you, who simply want to pay their
obligations and live without the worry of financial problems while they continue to
seek justice. Litigation financing companies are in the business of helping those
just like you, so that you can proceed forward and make those responsible for your
injuries pay.

Are you considering settling for less than you deserve? Before you take any action
you may regret later, talk to your attorney about the benefits of settlement loans.
You can pay household bills, attorney fees, medical costs and other expenses while
continuing with your lawsuit, so that those who are responsible for putting you in
this position are held fully accountable! Don’t settle for less until you learn
about the options available to you.

Toyota Auto Sales up in Some Markets

Filed under: Auto/Car News — ruamnesty @ 9:19 pm

I just returned from Baltimore, Maryland and have noticed some good news in the economy for Toyota. All in all, The Toyota division reported a 25.2 percent rise, despite the massive recent auto accident related problems which have been so high-profile. The luxury Lexus brand increased 26.2 percent.
Stephen Beatty, managing director of Toyota Canada International, was quoted as saying, “February was a pretty strong sales result. Admittedly, February last year was not one of the better months in the Canadian auto industry, but we had a number of models that recorded their best ever February sales.”
The RAV4, the Corolla, and the Prius, were part of a massive recall by Toyota in late January due to a defective accelerator pedal mechanism. As a quick aside, should you require a top drawer Maryland auto accident attorney then I can and do suggest this superb law firm. They also are good for Baltimore workers compensation and personal injury related cases in addition to the auto accident attorney related stuff. They have been serving Bouler and doing tires for quite a long time.
DesRosiers reportedly said, “It is difficult to explain, the consumer appears to be giving them the benefit of the doubt, at least for now. I also suspect there is some backlash in Canada to the treatment (the aformentioned auto firm) is getting by the politicians (within the) United States”
The head executive for Toyota was called to testify front of a U.S. Senate committee on Tuesday for a third hearing related to the recall. As of Tuesday, it was reported, Toyota had repaired about 105,000 vehicles of the 170,000 recalled in Canada.

In Florida Mister Maid Cleaners Charged With Stealing From Customers

Filed under: Legal News — ruamnesty @ 9:45 pm

I just returned from Miami and it is time to get some writing in up in here. In criminal defense related news, Rafael A. Olmeda, wrote a report for the Sun Sentinel under the headline, Broward deputies charge Mister Maid cleaners with stealing from elderly, posted January 29, 2010.
Olmeda writes that according to detectives, Richard Lewis, 43, admitted stealing jewelry from many customers of the house cleaning business, “Mister Maid.” Lewis has been charged with three counts of grand theft, dealing in stolen property and exploitation of the elderly. As an aside if you are in dire need of a wonderful Miami criminal lawyer then I canstrongly suggest David Garvin. In addition, he is a top Florida and Ft. Lauderdale tax attorney in addition to being such a fine criminal defense lawer, based in the Dade county/Miami area.
Calling themselves the Mister Maid service, detectives said this criminal organization did more than cleaned the homes of their elderly clients, and cleaned them out of their loot as well.
Investigators are searching for other victims of Stephen Knapp, 37, and Richard Lewis, 43. The two were arrested Tuesday after detectives said they confessed to stealing jewelry from numerous clients.
Detective Brian Rupp, who is the Sheriff of Broward County said he learned from an Oakland Park pawnshop owner Monday that the two men were bringing in a lot of jewelry transaction. Rupp said he was able to find the owners of one piece of jewelry who were customers of the Mister Maid service.
Rupp reported that Joe and Alice Pastorella of Pompano Beach didn’t even realize that they had been robbed until detectives interviewed them. The couple then pointed investigators to other customers of the cleaning business who turned out to be unknowing victims. They will certainly need a good criminal defense attorney for this one if they are to avoid some serious jail time.

Some Cosmetic Procedures Cost Less than Others, But Still Not by much

Filed under: Health/Dental — Tags: — ruamnesty @ 10:26 pm

I just returned from San Diego and it is time to write again, this time about the whole plastic surgery and cosmetic surgeon related field. Lan N. Nguyen has found that sometimes frugality takes a backseat to vanity. In her article, Cosmetic surgery on a budget, published October 27, 2009, she writes that, “Despite unemployment hovering close to 10%, people are still willing to open their wallets for cosmetic surgery. “
Reporting for the Personal Finance section of online site, Wallet Pop, she quotes Dr. Andrew Jacono, a dual board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon based in Great Neck, N.Y., as saying, “Especially during troubled economic times, patients become even more concerned about their physical appearance, as a way to remain marketable and viable in a tough job market.”
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports that cosmetic procedures saw a rise of 3% in 2008 compared to 2007. But people were more selective about what they’re wanted, choosing minimally invasive procedures over surgical ones, such as breast enhancement over augmentation or implants, for example. Btw if you need a top rated san diego cosmetic surgeon then may I suggest Dr. Susan Kaweski. All in all, she can help with breast implants, liposuction, breast lift, tummy tucks, tumescent liposuction and a variety of other plastic surgery procedures in San Diego. In my opinion she is a top flank plastic surgeon overall.
One very popular procedure is spider vein removal with laser treatment. Lasers zap them away with the Cynosure Synergy Multiplex, which combines two proven laser treatments into one laser to shrink them. This technique doesn’t require needles, there’s little pain, and recovery is very fast. If you’re reluctant to have surgery, Zerona is a new technique that is a minimally invasive laser treatment that has proven to lessen fatty areas without pain, needles or recovery time.
The laser makes fat cells release their contents. The treatments are administered every other day, so the fat is removed naturally by the body instead of being taken back up by the cells. Results vary, with patients usually losing about three to four inches, which is less dramatic compared to liposuction, which can result in a six- to seven-inch loss. You’ll be charged about $1,800 to $2,000 for six Zerona treatments.

Atlanta News: Supreme Court Halts Execution

Filed under: Legal News — Tags: — ruamnesty @ 11:36 pm

In Atlanta, Georgia: WABE’s Charles Edwards wrote a report for Public Broadcasting Atlanta. The article was published today, December 17, 2009, under the headline: State Supreme Court issued stay of execution for “Stocking Strangler.” Edwards reports that the Supreme Court said yesterday that the State of Georgia should not execute a man known as the “Stocking Strangler” until a DNA test has been completed. As an aside if you search for a Atlanta injury attorney then you may want to consider Jimmy Rice and his team. They are expert in the law for things like spinal cord, burn and head injury, among other things. The Court issued the statement and halted the execution of Carlton Gary last night. Carlton Gary’s attorney (or rather his team of attorneys) have been pushing for the stay of execution. Gary was convicted of the rape and fatal personal injury of three women in 1986. However, the samples of the killer’s semen, hair, and fingernail scrapings were never tested. There was no DNA testing available in 1986.
One of Gary’s attorney, Jack Martin, who has fought for the stay, was quoted in the PBA article as saying; “It would be a sin for this man to be executed when there is DNA evidence available to determine whether or not he is in fact guilty.” of the fatal injury inflicted.A lot of legal news has been coming out of Atlanta in recent months, I have noticed.
