Notes and questions on court procedures
Question: Usually how the court cases take place ? Like how much time is allocated , do we get chance to talk in court ? Whats the normal court procedure ?

Truth is out: ‘Braveheart’ Rohtak sisters are third rate bullies and extortion racketeers
The Rohtak sisters Pooja and Arti Kumar who became national sensations by standing up to few boys who ‘molested’ them are now getting shredded as more videos and eye-witnesses’ accounts come to light. Update Feb 27, 2015: As I had already asserted, the polygraph tests were done to protect the Rohtak sister duo, and that’s exactly how the case is turning out to be. If the lie-detector tests had gone in their favour, then they would have splashed it in media. Now that it went against the duo, you tell the world that lie-detector tests are not reliable. Update Dec …[Continue Reading]

How to boost your self-esteem using fake breasts
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/venezuelas-newest-shortage-breast-implants-25502445?singlePage=true The news is from Venezuela. After Venezuela having 63% inflation in an year and shortages of food, toilet paper, and even newsprint it seems the latest shortage is one of breast implants. Venezuelans once had easy access to implants approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. But doctors say they are now all-but impossible to find because restrictive currency controls have deprived local businesses of the cash to import foreign goods. It may not be the gravest shortfall facing the socialist South American country, but surgeons say the issue cuts to the psyche of the image-conscious Venezuelan woman. …[Continue Reading]
