What was Your Reaction to Presiden't Obama's Speech in Arizona
When President Obama took the podium at Wednesday night's memorial service in Tucson, Ariz., he was greeted with the unbridled excitement of a college campus embracing their commander in chief. Cheers and screams and hoots continued even after he asked for people to sit down. As he started his eulogy, with the somber words, "To the families of those we've lost," voices still cheered and at least three people shouted out, "We love you!"

Who should be responsible for Clearing Snow from Sidewalks?
A recent ruling by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court makes it easier for people injured on snow covered walkways to successfully sue those property owners who don’t clear snow from walking surfaces. Winter is here and so are slippery sidewalks, parking lots and walkways. Previously, Massachusetts courts have ruled that a property owner cannot be held liable if someone is injured walking on new or what courts have called “natural” snow. Instead, owners can be held liable if someone walks over the natural snow and then another person falls down while walking on the same area of snow, called “unnatural” snow by the courts.

And they they saw fit to. Notwithstanding that they it's been in the news sort you know amok and a half. Put it you know -- the beat to calm under eight fisheries. Official has been asked to resign so but they've been settled. And you know people do have. Business disagreements and -- just not gonna pay a bill because someone says.
