  • Trial by jury evidance question?

    If you are convicted at a trial by jury, but during the trial a piece of information(a recording) is submitted and listened to by all sides yet is not accepted or submitted as evidance. Can this piece of evidance be used as new Evidance to force an appeal trial IF its pertinant OR is it a moot point as it has already been suggested once in trial?

    Update: The information was presented to all parties then asked if the defence council wanted to admit it into Evidance but the defence lawyer refused it, yet the judge insinuated it might be arguable if it was used....

    Update 2: The information was a conversation between the accusor and his lawyer and it was infered that there might be grounds to infer that the accusers lawyer implanted the idea of accusing the defended into the plot of the crime making the defendent into a co conspirator... the conversation was questionable so said the judge.

  • Why do chrisitans get to decide what happens in MY FAITH?

    Unitarian Universalism Accepts and condones gay marriage and should be able to Wed its members as they see fit. EXCEPT Christians are immposing there faith on another faith. Where is the freedom of religion? The word marriage is not OWNED by the christians. The word cannot be OWN. Yet they claim it as there own and the government backs them up. I would say christians everywhere need to feal ashamed for persecution of others. Very sad in the modern world.

  • Tesla Recreations: Why has no one tried to remake his inventions?

    I know most of you think mush of what Tesla claims is bunk besides the repeatable stuff that is in use today. I am not questioning weather any of it was feasable or not.

    MY REAL QUESTION IS: Does anyone know if ANYONE anywhere has tried to or is trying to remake/ recreate/reproduce His known patented Inventions from the beginning extrapolating there design from the patents which can be fairly easily found.

    I mean i see many people making a few of his inventions here and there but im of the mind that to know how somehting works one should repeat it all FROM the beginning not jus one here and there. I wonder if anyone is recreating them or has and if they did it with or attempted to with original parts or materials used.... Some might claim that a part is a part today or then but the older way of making things could have has side affect those similar modern parts do not have... and that side affect may have lead to some of his discoveries.

    Im not one of these people fair weather reading about his internet pushed claims of free energy... Though i wouldnt denie rediscovering his wireless transmission of energy would be profound what i am seeking moreso is the reasons why no one has tried to even COPY his devices not just the end device but all of them..... IE reading the articles from Popular Mechanics about his speach to the electrical engeneers in NY and in London and how they were awed by his electrical light show.... Ive looked and looked online and no one seesms to have remade this supposidly simple electrical device??? WHY? this and many others.... Samual clemens a friend and often visitor to his NY lab talked of many Wonders and machines.... there in his patents why are none remade???

  • Beginning of story does this first two pages grab you?

    ignore the grammer please i just wrote this 10 minutes ago havent checked it but wanted to know if its a grabber... I have a second and third idea on how to start the story so wanted to get thoughts on this way first.

    Beauty and the beast

    eye of the beholder

    The angery mob of towns people slammed there make shift battering ram over and over into the

    porcullis guarding the door. The beast waining in strength, hope and love Lay in his bed listening to

    there screams from his partially open window.

    "Beauty..." Was all he mumbled weakly. As his heart broke even more knowing she would never return to a mosnter like he. Beast had spent so much time trying to show her he wasnt this thing she sees now, this monsterous form. She was so beautiful so perfect, as he had once been. Love came easy the first sight of her for who could not love a beautiful specimen such as she?

    As he laid there lamenting his lost perfect love he heard glass breaking somewhere in the house.

    "BEEEEAAST!!!" Someone yelled in tortured rage.

    'This is someone like himself someone who is angery. Someone who is beyond angered at a

    situation beyond there control yet with the desire to do somehting anything he can about it. Better die by his hand than that of the modd still futily trying to break down the front door.' The beast rose to unsteady legs and trudged out his bedroom down the hall and to the balcony overlooking the entry hall.

    Standing below upon the ground floor stood a glorious man. He was everything the beast had once been before the witch cursed him and his Manor. The man below was close to perfect and the beast lightly entertained that had things been diffrent and he was normal this man could have been a friend though a lowly peasant he had the perfection needed to be seen around the Adam while he was out carousing.

    The man looked up at the beast Hatred and rage burned in his perfect eyes. Quickly he brought up his crossbow to bear on the Beast. "You evil thing will not take away my betrothed!" He stated taking aim.

    "Gaston!... No.." Squeeked a high beautiful voice from the smashed in window.

    "Stay out of this belle. This monster, this ugly horrid beast has gone to far and needs to be

    slain." Gaston said through clenched teeth.

    "Belle its alright.." Is all the Beaast can get out before his head falls in shame. The perfect

    man was correct. This beastly monster I had been cursed into becoming needed to be destroyed. This BEAST I am needed to be eneded. He deserves Belle in all her perfection. They made a fine couple and would have fine beautyful children. If only she had seen me before in my days of perfection.

    "I will not let you harm him Gaston." Belle almost screamed as she ran across the floor and up

    the stairs after entering through the broken glass window.

    "No Belle stay away from it! The monster does not desevrve your love or protection!" Gaston

    screamed turning to watch belle run up the stairs. Yet also inadvertantly pointing the ready crossbow at her as well.

    'In his rage all it would take is one twick and belle would die at this second in front of me'

    The beast thought. "Gaston! You are hear to face me! RROOOOAAARRR!!" The beast Lept from the top toward Gaston Using up most of his strength in the roar and the rest in the leap. Having performed this leap many times at full strength he knew he would easily survive the jump but hoped Gaston was as perfect at his aim as he was in his looks.

    "ADAM NOOOO!" Belle screamed in horror watching him roar and jump at Gaston.

    Taken off guard by the roar and jump Gaston swung the crossbowback toward the beast who was already jumping. This shock made him pull the trigger far to soom the bolt flew into empty victomless space. Gaston was not one to freeze in the face of danger. In fact he lived for these times. Dropping the crossbow he reached for his belt knives is one smooth move.

    Gaston and the beast slammed together and rolled across the floor tumbling. There were only a

    few real swings and once the rolling stopped so did all movement rfrom both of them.

    The bandging from the townfolk had changed tones they were now pounding on the door having made it past the porculous gate. Belle stood in stuned silence for what seemed forever holdigng her breathe.

    "adam.... Adam... ADAMMM!!" She screamed over and over lound and louder as she ran toward the crumpled pair. Belle used all her strength rolling the beast onto his back a knife was lodged into his shoulder and a two woulds could be sceen in other areas on his body. "Adammm!" Belle becan to cry then to sob uncontrolable as she lifted the beasts head and partially into her lap. Her first tear hit the prone beast and something magical happened. The beast began to glow with a soft yellow light. The same light that had changed him and his manor was now changi

    OK not sure where to ask this hopefully someone knows.

    If I have a air canaster presurized with 30 psi on the inflow side of the air conpressing engine and on the outflow side I had a canaster that could hold up to 40 psi on the other..... Nowthe real issue is this lest say the aircompressing motor could only compress to 10psi would it be able to fill the 40 psi tank or would you need a 40 PSI compressor?

    I know nothing of engineering but wondered if 30 psi inflow plus the 10 its able to compress might allow the smaller motor to work???

    Im think im not seeing the forest for the trees here could someone tell me if it might or might not work and WHY?

    These Hands

    The man sat slumped over in a sterile waiting area of the county hospital. His hands rubbing coursely over each other in a worried way. Massaging each other as best they could through those thick calluses that spoke of a lifetime of hard work.

    Though as clean as he could get, the man seemed far to dirty to be inside such a sterile place. It wasn't the dirt that comes from neglect. It was the dirt that comes with spending half your life working with it. The dirt seems to become a part of you, and you it.

    Brows furrowed leaning forward he glanced around slowly at the much too large hospital. Every thing seemed too large now since "The Judgement".

    This place of healing would have had nurses and doctors running here or there out to cure the world.

    A soon to be father should never wish his unborn death. Yet night after night as he lay next to his young wife and the growing seed they had planted, he had wished just that many times.

    It had been five years since "The Judgement", five years since little Beth Mullins his wife had met him at his door that evil morning. It had been five years since the world had ended.

    His needing hands stopped as he quickly come to his feet. He stood hyper aleart, listening closely. Behind two sets of doors a woman's voice could be heard.

    "That's good breathe steady we still have a while to go..."

    Sitting back down yet still tense his hands again went back to there well versed movements.

    "Please God...", leaked from his quivering lips.

    Many would say Beth wasn't much to look at. Those people were nnot using Jesse's eyes or heart. Beth was plain short and stockly like her mother. City people might consider these qualities useless, yet on a working farm it meant an extra pair of capable hands.

    She had complained about chores while growing up like all children do. Since arriving at Jesse's farm though she had never once complained. What she and the world had witnessed had taken the child out of her. Replacing the chld with fear nightmares and pain. Yet she did not cry, she hasn't spoken one word since that day.

    The one thing Jesse remembered most about that moring, and it has hit him every morning since. Is the almost painful silence. He had read somewhere that Lewis and Clark could hear the ocean while hundreds of miles away. That seemed impossible before. there used to be so much noise, life in the world.

    Hands massaged each other in worry. He stopped fidgeting looking at his now open palms. His hands had seen a lifetime of pain a lifetime of hard labor. He had used them to plow, to drive posts, even to help bury, all the families that had died in the "The Judgement". He had birthed livestock, cared for the injured, and put them down when the need arose. His big strong hands. Jesse clinched them into tight fists of rage and frustration.

    "Useless, useless thats what they are!" Jesse almost screamed through clincled teeth.

    The extreme anger and tension left him as quickly as it had come. The worst part of any situation for Jesse had always been the waiting, the watching. Jesse is a doer, like his father before him. Even in the face of something as grim as "the Judgement" he did not falter.

    He had awoke that morning to the defeaning screams of what seemed like all the animals on earth. Most stopped after a few minutes as they died in grotesque positions. A number of them had to be put down before the wails of pain stopped. He had just finished putting the last one down outside the barn when he caught sight of Beth Mullins carrying her younger brother Tom coming up the drive.

    Jesse had run to help her. After handing Tom's limp almost lifeless body to Jesse, Beth said the last words he would hear from her, "They're all dead!" That is until that very moment in the hospital. Over the now constant silence htat covers the world Jesse heard the voice he had heard only once before so long ago.

    "It's coming!"

    He knew that was Beth's voice.

    "Breathe...bare down...PUSH..."

    He stood no longer able to sit.

    "Please god if you are going to take it make it fast not like Tom." Jesse breathed.

    He remembered coming here after Beth first showed him the possitive pregnacy test. They had a long talk with the doctor. Jesse's first question "Are the birth and death rates any better for people than livestock?"

    Being a farmer he had noticed the change in the world. It seemed like all living things only had a one in five or so chance of living after conception. If it survived to birth it had a one in three chance of coming out normal. The other two chances were ranged between a mild palsie state to total comatose state for life.

    This is the left over effect of "The Judgement". All living things seem to be affected.

    The doctors sad head shake was all Jesse needed. He had immediately brought up the subject of abortion. Though Beth did not speak she was good at communicating her feelings. She wante

  • Feedback on new Story Im writing?

    WARNING: this is a vampire story in part so if you tired of that dont read on. And no I am no Twilight fan I hatted the books and movies.

    Now first off Ive had this idea for a long time far before Underword came out by almost 5 years BUT after it came out I dropped the idea as it seemed to close story wise.... but recently have decided to start it anyhow..

    Jason and Grace are High school sweethearts. Jason was a semi Nerd/band Geek. Grace Was the female lead in every play yet off the stage was never herself always playing one of her roles for people. Thinking her own life boring and dull she acted all the time which made her popular but very sad inside as not many knew the real her in any significant way. Jason had a crush on her but mainly on the charater she played in the world.. He overhears her crying one day then stumbles in trying to help... Little by little they become friends as he learns about the real her... They both eventually fall in love her with a guy who see the real her and supports her and him in the girl behind the mask which is so much deeper and complex than he had imagined he cant help but be fasinated and fall for her... Over spring break they decide instead of going to the beach or other places with lots of kids to go off by themselves on a small camping trip to be away from people so they could both be themselves without pressure... Jason has beeen trying to tell her His hidden secret for some time.. and he thinks on this trip hes going to do it tell her and show her... They go camping on his uncles land which is heavily forested but safe... As they camp in the middle of the night a group of men that ar e nor men attack them they are vampires... Jason tries to fitght thm off but to no avail ... in the middle of the fight Jason is saved by His pack his family the werewolves though outnumbers are enough to run off the group of vampires but as they leave they take Grace... He doesnt have the chance to tell her he and his family are were wolves.... NOTE(they are not the change at full moon kind they are the ancient protectors of nature and Man from demons and the supernatural... IE mans best friend is the dog the werewolves in my story harken back to a miricle in which god combines wolfdogs and humans so they could forever be together and protect one another) to give the rest a quick overview.... Grace is captured by bad vampires after a sort of confrence with the WW chieften and the vamps about her those vamps are tracked down by the vampire leaders to sustain the truce between the vamps and WWs... but it is to late she has been turned.... IE they ar e reunited each really just learning about there powers and begin a forbinned affair.. which starts a minor war..

    there are several sub plots in the background people being used... troops being amassed.... there is even a rgoup of crazed humans that hunt monsters that are trying to SAVE the pair... untill they find they have been changed then try to kill them to help them...

    Well thats sort of the gist of it in short form.

    Synaps of the story

    Sir Felix, Lady Judzia and Squire Dax face trials and tribulations. As they go on their nightly patrols. Over the course of a weeks time the three uncover a deadly mystery and a horrible monster. We tag along hearing the tale told through the eyes of Squire Dax. Most pets like their owners are more concerned with there small live than the happiness of other. Felix and his friends connect to them and others in intricate and enduring ways.

    Throughout the week we follow as they find clues to the deadly mystery of what is killing pets in their area. Discovering clues as well as remains of loved ones along the way. We meet new characters and solve a few minor quests along the way. The entire story leads to an end confrontation with the evil creature that is causing all the problems. The confrontation ends with a narrow victory and a sort of melancholic fear. Happy to have the evil stopped but saddened it had to end with another death.

    A little set up. The story is an anthropomorphic tale about 3 cats who take it upon themselves to Patrol the kingdom (neighborhood) and help all its citizens(pets and local animals) as best they can. They follow Felix a self proclaimed Knight and protector of the realm. They being Judzia and Dax a non biological brother and sister pair of pets. well anything given I will accept thank you all. Forgive the poor paragraphing in my writing program its spaced and all correctly copy pasting makes it odd..

    Night One

    "Now, once more, I must ride with my knights to defend what was, and the dream of what could be."

    Nigel Terry as King Arthur

    Memorable Quotes from the film

    Excalibur (1981)

    "Arrrgh" moaned the large striped tabby cat as he stretched out even more, absorbing as much of the sunbeam as possible. Like most of his kind Dax loved a good nap in a sunbeam. Unlike some though he liked lying on his back, warming his tummy. His large frame covered most of the small table his paws stretched over his head and jutting out over the table edge.

    Lazily he opened one eye glancing around the small four-room apartment. Seeing nothing unusual as he had expected he again closed his eyes.

    Dax suddenly felt as though he was being watched. He had this feeling before and it usually turned out to be nothing, this time he intended to ignore it and just lay there and take in the full sunbeam. As he lay there he tried ignoring it hoping it would go away, yet the feeling of being watched persisted. Slowly as if it strained him he opened his eyes and as things came into focus, time seemed to freeze, to my fright I saw the outline of Judzia who was mere inches from landing on me. She must have pounced from the high shelf. Having very little time to react I froze and braced for impact. To my horror and relief she didn't land on me directly, but instead hit my outstretched paws sending me flailing and somersaulting backwards through the air bottom first. Trying to bring my feet around quickly and failing I was more shocked than hurt when I hit the soft long thing the caretakers sit on with a soft yet firm thump.

    "Hehehehahaha" laughed Judzia the small female mostly white calico.

    "HA...HA...very funny!" I said in annoyance, as I righted myself. As she continued to snicker my annoyance grew. Having enough I crouched "You'll see how funny it is when I get hold of you!" So saying the last word I sprang at her.

    It was a futile attempt and I knew it yet I'd hoped for a lucky shot. They both knew Judzia was much faster and far more agile, yet I continued the chase.

    Around the room they flew knocking things off tables and annoying the female caretaker to no end. Dax knew he shouldn't be doing this for Judzia had just got through making The Female very angry by eating the plant she had just brought into the house yesterday. Yet run and race they did. He noticed the female getting more and more angry and flustered.

    "FLAH FLAH FLAH OOOUUUTTT!" Screamed the female caretaker as she stomped over to the door to the outside and flung it open.

    I stopped the chase as soon as she started yelling. It doesn't do to make them overly agitated. While yes they seem intelligent in many ways, they still have to be pitied. No Fur always cold, only two legs and no tail. Yet still they are larger than we are and like all large creatures they can hurt a Miaw if provoked or overly excited.

    "It's about time," Judzia said snottily, as she raised her tail and strutted toward the open door.

    I walked by her at a fast pace. I didn't wish to make the female angrier than she already was. Reaching the porch quickly I turned and sat to do a little grooming as I waited for Judzia. I watched with a small frown as Judzia still inside was strutting slowly toward the door like a queen.

    I think secretly she likes annoying our caretakers or "Servants" as she calls them. Today she ate the new green plant that the female had just brought in the day before. I don't know why she ate it they taste bad and she complained about the taste afterwards. I think she just likes toying with them. She says she is trying to train them, but I think she is just fooling herself.

    Of course then again I don't see why the caretakers get so angry either. There are green plants all over outside of our home. Why not just dig one of these up and put it in the little pot? Oh well many things they do are confusing.

    I had been caught in thought and as I looked back to see Judzia almost out the door. Suddenly the Female yelled and slammed the door hitting Judzia on the bottom knocking her forward into me.

    Judzia looked back at the door in anger. "See if I let her stroke me tomorrow." She mumbled angrily.

    As she glanced back at me, I was hard pressed to not let my grin show. Judzia can be very snotty at times, its good to see her get a little swat every now and then.

    I noticed as I turned away from Judzia's annoyed gaze that we had a while before the sun went to sleep f
