Once I was working as a corporate lawyer, so I”ve seen both sides

November 4th, 2008

Once I was working as a corporate lawyer, so I”ve seen both sides. Then I worked for a big rental agency and there have been many times when I helped them with the eviction of clients so that they could develop their properties and get higher rent rates. I realize my work was not just and thus I am not proud of my actions. However, my life got the right direction when I started working for the legal aid services of Oregon. Finally, I could look in the mirror again, I was no longer ashamed of my work, on the opposite - I feel proud of myself because I am doing the right thing - helping the poor.

Peter Bills : Arsenal’s title campaign looks in serious trouble

By anyone’s judgement, Arsenal’s campaign for the 2008/9 Barclays Premier
League title looks in serious trouble.

Writing off a member of the so-called elite top four on the first weekend of
November might seem either wishful thinking (should one be a Tottenham
supporter, as in this case) or downright churlish. Yet the case for the
prosecution demanding Arsenal’s removal from the list of likely champions is
both extensive and merited.

England slump to worst World cup defeat
England empty-handed as Superstars gifted victory

England did not so much lose $20 million last night as hand it gift-wrapped to the Stanford Superstars on a golden platter. In an embarrassing display which demonstrated either that the money on offer – $1m a man – mattered too much or did not matter enough, they were humiliated.

Harry Houdini magic casts spell on Reds

Bottom against top was as one-sided as might have been expected for 70 minutes
in sodden north London yesterday evening, but Liverpool somehow managed to
turn victory into defeat and in doing so, throw away the Premier League
leadership. Chasing a sixth successive win, they led almost from the start
through Dirk Kuyt, only to concede an unlucky own goal by Jamie Carragher
with 20 minutes to play and then suffer a first defeat since March when
Roman Pavlyuchenko scored in added time.

Gunners thrown out of kilter by Delap’s devilish deliveries

It must be hoped Triggs is in the mood for a good walk this morning. Roy Keane is in the habit of taking his dog for a hike when he has matters to brood on, and after this thrashing there is plenty for the Sunderland manager to contemplate.

Ronaldo double saves United from Hull

It is not just the cracks they have provided in the Premier League hegemony which have made Hull such a welcome breath of east coast air this season. It is the sheer energy that the Yorkshire charabanc can provide on days like this. “We are ‘ull, we are ‘ull” their fans yelled for most of yesterday afternoon and it is a message their players ensured Manchester United will not be forgetting in hurry.

Outside the Box: Berbatov refused to play against Chelsea, says Levy

In a week when Sir Alex Ferguson raved about Dimitar Berbatov’s contribution to Manchester United, consider-ably harsher words were being said about him at his former club Tottenham. The Spurs chairman, Daniel Levy, has revealed the moody Bulgarian refused to play in games against Sunderland and Chelsea, in which the team dropped five points during their worst-ever start to a season, culminating in Juande Ramos being sacked last weekend. Talking about Berbatov agitating for a move to United over the course of more than a year, Levy said: “We had a player that had refused to play two Premier League games for us, was having a detrimental impact on the dressing room and we’d known for a year that this player wanted out of this club.” Levy added: “I don’t think he treated the club with the respect we deserved. We put him on the map. He signed a long-term contract with this club and I think he should have stayed.” Indeed, he would have done had Ramos insisted, but the manager, having used him only briefly as a substitute at Middlesbrough on the first day of the season, decided to cut his losses. It should all add further spice to United’s visit to White Hart Lane on 13 December.

Ronaldo deal on offer as Ferguson fears buy-out

Manchester United will attempt to prevent Cristiano Ronaldo buying himself out of his current contract and leaving for Real Madrid by offering him an extension to it next summer. By the end of the season he will have served three years of his existing five-year deal, and at that point any player aged under 28 is allowed to break his contract by paying his club a sum equal to the wages on the remaining period. Estimating his salary at £120,000 per week, that would mean a fee of £12.48 million, well within Ronaldo’s capabilities as well as Real Madrid’s.

Andrews strike saves Rovers red faces

For one reason and another, the Hawthorns is becoming associated with stirring Premier League afternoons. In a game in which it was going to take something special to divert attention away from the referee Mike Jones, West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn Rovers achieved that feat.

There is some question as to the legality of unauthorised overdraft charges

October 29th, 2008

There is some question as to the legality of unauthorised overdraft charges. Penalty clauses (such as unauthorised overdraft charges) are illegal under breach of contract law. However, banks do have the right to claim damages from customers who breach their contract with the bank. To avoid going to court every time, most banks write these charges into the contract. They are then able to raise those charges at regular intervals.

Liverpool end Chelsea’s 4-year unbeaten home run

Xabi Alonso’s first-half goal ended Chelsea’s 86-game unbeaten home league
record and put Liverpool three points clear at the top of the Barclays
Premier League.

Portsmouth: We tried to keep Harry

Portsmouth have insisted they did everything in their power to keep Harry
Redknapp as manager at Fratton Park and that there was no question of them
snatching a £5million compensation offer from Tottenham in order to ease an
alleged poor financial position at the south coast club.

Redknapp in as Spurs lose Ramos and £5m to Pompey

After employing four different foreign managers and two directors of football
in the past decade, Tottenham have gone back to basics by putting East
Londoner Harry Redknapp in charge after sacking Juande Ramos, his coaching
staff and the much criticised Damien Comolli, who had been expected to be
made the scapegoat for the worst start to a season in the club’s history.
Redknapp confirmed early this morning that he has accepted the job after
Spurs paid Portsmouth £5 million compensation for his services. He will be
at White Hart Lane this afternoon as they attempt to gain a first victory of
the campaign against Bolton Wanderers.

Arteta pulls the strings to make champions wilt

One of the attractions of sport is how an apparently lost cause can be retrieved against all expectation. Once Manchester United scored midway through the first half yesterday, going on to achieve effortless dominance before the half-time interval, they seemed certain to be heading for the usual victory at Goodison – an eighth in nine visits – and temporarily, at least, for the top three of the Premier League.

Richardson’s rocket hits home to ignite North-east tensions

The suffering in between has been too great to say it was worth the wait, but 28 years, six months and three weeks after they last did so, Sunderland beat Newcastle United at home yesterday. The victory sparked a pitch invasion on the final whistle, which turned ugly as rival fans clashed at the thinly-segregated away end, and which will get Sunderland into trouble with the authorities, but jubilation will not be denied Wearside. “If you think I’m going to sit here and criticise Sunderland supporters, you’re wrong,” Roy Keane said afterwards.

King crowns Hull’s rise to dizzying heights

It’s there in black and white and, on this evidence, it’s thoroughly deserved; only goal difference now separates Hull City from the Premier League summit. Today’s Chelsea v Liverpool game ensures that some daylight will be re-established but it will take more, much more, to shake Hull’s fans from the fantasy world which they now inhabit.

Outside the Box: Scudamore’s role in taking off Thaksin and bringing on Sheikh

While the football authorities might have been hoping that Thaksin Shinawatra – originally deemed a fit and proper person to own a Premier League club – would be found not guilty of corruption at his trial in Thailand, there is considerable relief that he had managed to dispose of Manchester City before the verdict was announced last Tuesday. Flimsy as they are, the “fitand proper person” tests employed by the Football Association and Premier League could hardly give carte blanche to someone sentenced to two years’ imprisonment in his own country, which is now seeking his extradition from Britain after he skipped bail to return here. Intriguingly, it emerges that City and Thaksin were both advised that the way the wind was blowing in Thailand, it would be impossible for him to continue as the club’s owner. Hence the hasty sale to the vastly richer Abu Dhabi United Group, which suited all parties. Richard Scudamore, the chief executive of the Premier League, says in defence of his organisation: “Don’t underestimate the role the football authorities played in that.” Better late than never.

McCarthy’s header leaves Boro stinging in the rain

It was a night of stereotypes. The rain and wind hurtled in from the Pennines, the football was hard and unyielding and all that was needed to complete the Lowry landscape was a few people in clogs. Oh, and to keep up with tradition, Middlesbrough conceded a goal in theclosing minutes.
