CITES BY TOPIC: Natural Law Defined And to talk of either adding to, or taking from, it, by legislation, is just as false, absurd, and ridiculous as it would be to talk of adding to, or taking away from, mathematics, chemistry, or any other science, by legislation. We believe that persons of any religion should be free exercise their rights to follow their religion and to talk freely in public settings about what God& law says about the sins of abortion, homosexuality, and fornication.

:: BlackElectorate.com :: Furthermore, the government must be forced to preserve the only honor left of the original legislation that created this travesty in the first place - the talk of protected property rights and restitution for genocide that initially swayed the cooperation of Native Americans already so mistrustful of the American government, and rightly so. The author of the legislation, Henry Dawes, seemed to see it as a means to civilize the American Indian, while his contemporary, Senator Henry M. Teller of Colorado, said the legislation was nothing more than a new scheme to remove American Indians from their land to allow resettlement by White Americans. That's really what is at issue, especially in light of the fact that Henry Teller's perception of the original legislation that has produced the present situation proved correct. www.blackelectorate.com /articles.asp?ID=568   (2110 words)

Tech Learns Give-and-Take in Bill on Expensing He points to talk among FASB board members of a delay in implementing options expensing, and to talk during public discussions in Palo Alto and Norwalk, Conn., about formulas besides the "fair value" method (also known as Black Scholes) for evaluating the ways in which options are expensed. That's a big concession on the part of most tech companies that used to like to show up in Washington, wave tattered copies of their civics textbooks and talk about having dinner with President Bill Clinton. If the Senate doesn't act before it adjourns—and in this election year, no one is willing to predict when Congress will close up shop and go home—tech interests might have to start all over again on the legislation next year. www.eweek.com /article2/0,1895,1681691,00.asp   (1373 words)

Wisconsin State Journal article So there was Galanter, speaking into the microphone on a sunny afternoon, beginning her speech by saying "I will talk about some legislation because Vic said I had to.". That a lot of politicians in Wisconsin are now aware of those statistics is a credit to McMurray and her allies in child-care activist groups fighting for legislation, such as the Working Family Child Care Tax Credit that the Legislature is currently considering. Victoria (Vic) McMurray makes it all look so easy--bending down to wipe crumbs off a child's mouth, then turning to a state senator to offer advice regarding a new piece of legislation, and one second later stepping up to a microphone to stir a great throng of activists to chant for change. www.bridgeschildcare.org /advocacy/noise.htm   (13677 words)

Can Prince William marry a Catholic? If William did wish to marry a Catholic then he, Prince Charles or Queen Elizabeth would talk with the prime minister who would agree to amend the law by introducing legislation in parliament.

The Act of Settlement means that if William marries a Catholic - see paragraphs 1 and 3 where Catholics are referred to as papists - he could not then succeed to the British throne to become king. theinternetforum.co.uk /william/succession2.html   (470 words)

Let's Talk Taxes - Unequal Parallel By having a piece of legislation that targets one segment of Canadian society, the Act segregates native Canadians from other Canadian citizens by their placement on reserves; thus the Act limits their ability to fully participate in the economy.
