Adam Kokesh 'Punches' Ron PaulSubmitted by myajace on Sun, 08/19/2012 - 21:06
The gentleman does a little bit of "rambling" in the second half of the video, but it was worth watching, and I certainly share his sentiment toward Mr. Kokesh.

Update on Veterans March
"It is the food which you furnish to your mind that determines the whole character of your life."
―Emmet Fox
What's with the Tank Tops (hahahaha) -- What a tool!!!
I love being the "1st" at things and don't mind (as an individualist an admitted egoist) to say "I TOLD YOU SO" and "I TOLD IT FIRST"
This guy suffers from PTSD and that is not funny it is a tragic outcome of war -- but his PTSD is not so much from seeing horrible shit; it's from feeling entitled. Entitled to a Leadership position with no credible reason for being there other than hitching his pole-star to Ron Paul.
How many swill-chugging-shills have made careers off of RP's good name -- I'm not talking about the 'necessary folk' who help to get RP's message out (that's "clean" money and deserved).
I'm talking about the coat-tail-riding jock-bunnies like Adam Kokesh.
None of whom would have foot-one in the public arena without RP or Mises -- the later to whom they ride but are in truth Rothbardians.
And what's with the Tank Tops man -- Yes Adam, Creatine, BHA's, and Whey powder do-a-body-good.
I have muscles too -- lead with your brain man not with your peck-decks, smile.
Adam is to be taken not stirred -- If you blunt this guys nose, even a little, he goes bytch-made in 10 seconds
*biting the hand that molded him*
To think this twit had a Ron Paul Endorsement.
A person should treat such an endorsement like the Golden Ticket in Charlie and the Charlie Factory.
"Is Adam Agustus Gloop" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdSORiSaRW8
"Is Adam Mike T.V" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0mUGtOisSY
Thank you
My sentiments exactly!
Adam Kokesh Can't be Trusted
Step back and look how Adam Kokesh might be preceived by someone thinking about joining the movement... Does Adam help matters or make the movement look foolish?
legitimate whistle blowing is good
but isn't this what mr kokesh did to the marines as well? selling out, in essence. this is becoming a pattern almost. whistle blowing for the right cause is legitimate, but it seems like for him it could rather be that treacherous habit is much more above the cause. some people ponder before they get themselves into something, but once they do, they often stick with it. others jump into something to find weaknesses, and when they do, they can't wait to jump ship for his 30 worth of silver. he probably wants to build his own ship this time, from the 30 he made off the paul movement.
Individualism needs Hero-Seekism?
Individualism needs NO-Heroes?
I've said it FOREVER (here and elsewhere -- for years) you cannot Vote or Lobby (the Ballot Box is a Corporatist Tool), which is perpetual war, and have the outcome result in free-markets/consumer-sovereignty/individualism.
According to Ron Paul -- who is anti-war (always).
According to Mises -- because war limits consumptive-solutions
According to all world history -- there's never been a free-market (or anything EVER remotely close) following on the heels of war.
Voting and Lobbying is the pre-cursor to War
It is an intellectual setting-up exercise -- it is an ideology formulator -- it is ABSOLUTELY (and perfectly) a circumvention of consumer-will.
Why OH WHY is this not clear to every single RP "follower"
RP is an educator "of" individualism.
You cannot derive individualism using a mechanism that PERFECTLY (and always) increases the size of Gov't -- as the Ballot Box does.
I will never understand why this is not clear.
A sea of spirits searching for validation
become a pack of wolves, attacking those who attempt to have them appeal to reason.
I hope after the convention is over you folks realize what you have done, and will face up to it.
You did this to yourselves. You wouldn't listen, and attacked those who attempted to show you what you put yourself in for... So be it.
As you have abandoned your principles, others will abandon you.
You wanted the ring of power, and now that you have invited their sickness upon you, you must bear the cost of your actions, willful as they may be.
Thomas Jefferson: "Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever."
Viva La Revolucion!
elviejo, this individual/program is made and contrived of and
for the benefit of the status quo government. In other words it is a government BOT! LoL! Nothing more and Nothing Less.
This freewill objector is a BOT.
Semper Fi my good friend. Please stop posting to government trolls. Just vote EVERY post down and they leave and come back under another name. Then we REPEAT!
1976-1982 USMC, Having my hands in the soil keeps me from soiling my hands on useless politicians.
The "program" of which you speak was...
Jesse Benton, John Tate, Doug Wead, Jack Hunter (that Ron Paul wins is of little concern to me...winning was never the goal") Austin Peterson (The FreeDUMB Nincom-POOP himself) and those who enabled them to purge the heart of Ron Paul and his principles and turn it into the black-heart of institutional, PC, status obsessed, duplicitous back stabbers, that exist to use the name of a great man, twist his words to their own personal ends, take money from those who desire for change, and call them names to their face, while they laugh themselves to bank YOUR money, when you call them out for their treachery. How anybody can blame anyone other than those who implemented these strategies and got others to similarly participate in such a purge and corruption of a honest, noble and truly brave movement is beyond me.
But the fight for liberty remains, and if we have to fight those who bought into the false choices and faith based ideology, then fine. It won't be long before your armor of "Hope for Change" is blunted by the harsh truth of reality. Should you have it in you to fight those who keep you in your physical and ideological box... We will comfort you and welcome you in the next phase in the march to liberty and autonomy for free humanity...
"Sooner or later...one has to take sides – if one is to remain human." Graham Greene
The hallmark of a faith based ideology...
and an absence at all of any modicum of reason. Read my history before you label me a troll. But your too lazy for that. Casting out anything and everything that counters your faith based ideology in absence of the existence of evidence that it is based in anything else but assumptions and selfish notions of superiority on the basis of another man's words, actions and credibility...
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.--"Oscar Wilde.
The views your think you are enforcing, are not even your own. And if they were, your doing a lousy job at that.
Kokesh has jumped the shark.
I don't know if the young man in the video spoke for
"a lot of us". What I do know, is that he certainly spoke for me.
Thank you, myajace, for posting this.

Chuck spoke for many of who still think Ron Paul will win.
There does seem to be a sect of Ron Paul supporters who have fallen into unbelief and are now supporting liberty losers for President...i.e. Gary and Robby.
Only an idiot would want to see Rand Paul run in 2016 and for that matter only an idiot would think there would be an election in 2016.
Wake the fk up, Ron Paul's campaign has indeed been co-opted by gop wannabe statists.
I voted you down but you are right, there
will be NO 2016 election!
If there was one I would vote for Rand over the likes of Gary Johnson the Republican turncoat whore to the LP!

Love This Video
Love Your Comment I voted you up I swear!

I voted you up also. Really, I did :)

RepublicRebel dumps on Adam
for smoking DMT on video while he's smoking away on the corporate cancer sticks in his. Jabronni.
This man is not pretending to
This man is not pretending to represent us all.
Vets For Paul!
Adam is going to log in and 'defend' himself by insulting the OP and then accusing the OP of libel (yeah he believes in free speech).
This has been my experience with Adam. Best advice, do not respond to him. He comes on to make flame comments. I think somewhere down below someone said the best thing to do is ignore Adam Kokesh. I have already done that. My life is much better as a result.
May the LORD bless you and keep you
May the LORD make His face shed light upon you and be gracious unto you
May the LORD lift up His face unto you and give you peace

That reminds me, the last
That reminds me, the last time I saw someone use those kinds of tactics was The Amazing Athiest, who got caught bot-voting his vids with copy-cat accounts and comments. He would often go onto his own vids and get 'nasty' with comments.
But, it's as you say, ignoring it is the best. The human ego withers without attention. This is frankly the first time I've even thought of Kokesh for over a month. I can easily imagine myself just going back to that.
Kokesh is the
American version of the Love Police. Get people trusting, then demoralize.
"If this mischievous financial policy [greenbacks], which has its origin in North America, should become endurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without debts. It will hav
The Love Police ... ugh
Old Charlie V. I still remember how I felt the day he sold out ... WOW. Some lessons are ONLY learned the hard way.
Life is a sexually transmitted disease with a 100% fatality rate.
Don't Give me Liberty, I'll get up and get it myself!
Everyone who is watching this needs to do one thing
stay neutral to anything thing that we don't agree with, right now We need to keep our emotions in check to win Tampa, and the last thing we need is something that we get pissed off about, even if he swears at RP, be calm, be collected and focus on the bigger picture, in kokesh's eyes he thinks rand didnt do the best, we shouldnt care
Aye, I'm very disappointed in
Aye, I'm very disappointed in most of the supposed 'figureheads' in the liberty movement, so it doesn't bother me much to just ignore them and focus on the convention and the battles ahead. I may avoid the squabbles for altogether different reasons, but I do agree.
Well there are figureheads because we allow it
.... this movement is and must be different than anything in Human history, because its showing you to be your OWN man!, when we are disorganized but have common ground towards the indivudual right to liberty and right to life, we will win, if we have leaders, it will be easy for them to divide and conquer us, they can never win if we adopt this policy, just look at anonymous, their concept is amazing, because its like playing whack the mole on a grand scale, I think someone said this on DP, but he/she makes sense, there will be no way to take on a critical thinking and independent minded population
Aye, I use figurehead for
Aye, I use figurehead for lack of a better term for myself. In the case of others, there are many that are still trapped in the 'need to be lead' mentality. For me, they are just individuals with an audience that really just denote the 'emotions' of a specific splinter of the Liberty movement.
I personally don't need a 'figurehead' to tell me what I think. I respect the wisdom and experience of others, but ultimately, make my own decision.
I tried watching one of his videos
An turned it off after he started inferring and making judgments about Ron Pauls parenting skills. Seriously!?
So yeah, I have no respect for him.
Edit: And after posting this I just thought about all the division in the movement now. It's too bad really. I hope we can all pull together for our last stand at the RNC, all of us includIng Adam and the gentleman in the video.
Ron Paul - Intellectual hero

I feel like death, suggestions to lift my soul?
I am sick with a respiratory infection and have been bedridden for 4 days .. truly one of the worst experiences in recent memory. I've been banned from celebrating Easter this Sunday with family (for fear of spreading the illness, of course) and need something, anything, to lift my spirits.
I'll be wearing a mask and toting an antimicrobial agent to cleanse my hands at all opportune times .. but please, I must get out of the house and eat something other than manischewitz matzos and macaroons (my mainstay during these difficult times).
I believe my boyfriend is willing to drive, but we're in Wilshire Center..
BCD was done a week ago, so was Pho .. and matzo ball soup was a seder delight ..
Any other ethnic 'chicken soups' out there? Goulash?
Oy gevalt.
Shamshiri Grill in Westwood makes some delicious herby Persian soups:
re: mojoeater
The panir al sabzi appetizer (fresh herbs, pita, nuts, feta) followed by wonderful lamb fesenjan really helped clear up a respiratory thing for me. Maybe takeout?
How about some ramen at RamenYa in santa monica? or go to K-Town for some korean tofu. Might be a little spicy though.
If it were me, I'd make the trek over to Mi India Bonita (4731 E. Olympic Blvd., (323) 267-8505) in East LA and have big bowl of al bondigas, caldo de pollo, or caldo de res. I would then get a second order to go to take home for tomorrow. MIB's al bondigas is like happiness in a bowl.
If you're feeling more adventurous, you could go to Little Sheep (227 W Valley Blvd., San Gabriel, (626) 457-5599) and get the medicinal herb hot pot. Plus, all the steam in that place would probably be good for your lungs.
Not close, but the seafood soup from Krua Thai in North Hollywood is my go-to soup when I'm sick (though chance had it that mom made matzoh ball soup for Passover, so I had it this week when I was sick). A good Thai spicy and sour soup, with or without coconut, might be good for what ails you.
There must be a good caldo de pollo from one of the small Mexican places near you, but I don't know of any place in particular.
The birria at Guelaguetza is in a soupy broth with dried chiles, avocado leaves, and herbs. Actually, they have a chicken soup with rice (and beef and tortilla soup). I've never tired any of them.
maybe it was because you said macaroons, but the macarons at boule always lift my soul a little bit. and they come in easter colors!
I'm no doctor, but if it were me, I'd self-medicate with a steamy, healthful bowl of congee (which is a rice porridge, for the uninitiated; also known as jook). Surely the thing practitioners of Eastern/Chinese medicine would prescribe. Get it with chicken, duck, and/or scrambled egg and green onion - mmm! Good and good for you! Try any Sam Woo location.
re: sanangel
I always get it "pay dan sau yuk" -- lean pork and preserved eggs. Good for the soul.
re: sanangel
Mom always made me chao (vietnamese version of conjee/jook) when I was sick. Also when the braces were tightened and my teeth were sore. If you want it southeast asian style, go to a vietnamese place and they'll load it up with fried onions, bean sprouts (often already at the bottom of the bowl and slightly cooked), and lime on the side. Also take some chinese donut (chau quay), cut it up and throw it in and mix it up.....delish! Since chao is usually a little on the runnier side, all this will make it nice and porridge-like in consistency. Most popular is the chicken variety or with various chicken orgaans, but they have beef and pork blood around, sometimes you'll see beef meatballs too.
re: groover808
Hi Everyone, Please keep "soul lifting" suggestions focused on actual places in the LA area where they may be found. Items to be prepared at home should be posted to Home Cooking. Thanks!
re: The Chowhound Team
Sorry for the digression, I'm relatively new here. I'll make sure to have places where people can find the goods. Thanks!
for korean style chicken soup (whole chicken + date, ginseng + sweet rice + chestnut)
korean restaurant in k town. on western ave, a little north of pico blvd in a plaza on the right side of the street as u go north on western. it's next to a quizno's.
I've been sick lately and found great comfort with the French onion soup at Doughboys and some of their hummingbird cake (carrot + cinnamon + bananas + nuts)
The Bagel Factory in West LA usually has a choice of three soups each day - very tasty and easy on the salt. They're loaded with fresh ingredients, and if you buy a quart, you get a couple bagels with it as well... they do have great bagels and bialys too!

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The teachers care at this school, my sons have not experienced any bullying at the school. my oldest son was promoted from this school and moved on to high school with no problems.
First I would like to say that the community reviews are mostly biased. Having teachers, PTA members get on here to taint the reviews is LOW Woodbrook. The real reviews are the one star reviews from Parents because it is the truth. If you really want to know, just take a look at their test scores and it is obvious what their so called "hard work" has accomplished. I have two kids at this school. I was warned about this school and wish that i could have gotten them in elsewhere. Hopefully the next school can repair the damage done to their education. If you have a good student, then the teachers will pretty much ignore you, if you have a special ed student, they single them out completely. And they love jumping straight to suspension over every little thing never mind that it is your child who will fall behind. They have a serious bullying problem at their school. If your child does nothing than nothing must be going on, if they stand up for themself, they are equally responsible. This school district is a joke but ive heard worse from other districts in the state of washington. This is not a state to live in if you have children!!!! Like i said, the scores...speak volumes!!!
My 7th grade daughter goes to Woodbrook. She is in advanced classes and has no issues with teachers, staff, or the children. The school itself NEEDS to be updated and the neighborhood is rough. But overall as of now its going well.
There communication skills to do with your child are pretty much not there. The bullying is ridiculous! The children that go to this school obviously have parents with minds of teenager. We have had nothing but problems since day 1. I have no contact with any of my daughters teachers, principal etc. Simply because they do not contact me what so ever. My daughter is not a problem child so I assume that is why I hear nothing but I would like a letter/note sometimes confirming that she does what she is suppose too. I pray we are never in this school district again.
Well im a 7th grader who attends Woodbrook Middle School right now and it is pretty cool.Woodbrook has nice teachers (my opinion) and they have cool classes and the friends are awesome! Go Woodbrook
Woodbrook is questionable at best. Don't even think about taking your specak needs child to this district. They don't do inclusion, even though they say they do when you call the district office. They have 'special design' classrooms they stuff the kids in. No accountability by principal for these teachers in this class. Just poor. And the teachers dress in jeans, tshirts and don't generally care about their appearance.
Woodbrook has great teachers and a great caring staff. The neighborhood can be a bit rough, but the students work hard, the teachers work hard to get every student to learn and enjoy school and the school is getting better each year.
This school rocks. The neighborhood is rough but the teachers work hard to make sure every kid learns.
This may be the last year there is a PTA unless next year's 6th grade parents step up and get involved. The PTA pays for field trips and gets most of their income (this yr and last) from Book Fairs. PTA also donates to the lunch fund for students that lose, forget or don't have a lunch (and aren't in the free lunch program yet). PTA also donates money to school nurse so kids that need clean clothes have some to choose from. The school does spend a lot of time with math, reading and writing programs but that is so they can pass the WASL. More gifted programs would be wonderful, but can't afford them.
All the teachers help with anything you ask school or in general and they really help they just dont make something up and send you off they check back with you later. The classes help are challenging but not to challenging and a big oart is how the kids help and the teachers care.
My daughter loves school, participates in many of the great extracurricular activities that are held through the year so far, has made so many friends, and the teachers are always there to help her when needed. She loves it there and I know will have a difficult time leaving when we move again.
We work very hard for our children at Woodbrook.And yes we had some problems but they have been solved.I enjoy working at Woodbrook and have been for the last four years.
Three of my children attended this school. One who was in the gifted program in Elementary was completely bored the entire time he attended this school. He was not challenged at all.
I am a student my self and can tell you that not much has changed since 2004. The school has excellent teachers it is just the curriculum that bothers me...no advanced classes, unless you in gifted(which is a joke)and the curriculum would barely challenge a 4th grader. They are trying there best but they do not have enough money or teachers. They really expect every student to do the fundraising and are on the verge of losing all after school activities. I am not to fond of the principal either, you never see her and for the last two years has sat in her office all day sitting. I'm not trying to bomb on Woodbrook but they seriously need help and money.I really care about my education and hope to go to BYU-Utah, and I am disappointed in wasting three years at this school. Everything else is Okay,hitting bad.
Woodbrook, like any other school has its good points and its bad points. What I like about this school is that most of the teachers use and respond to e mail. Most are more than eager to work with you and help you find a way for your child to succeed.
Like any school, it has great teachers and some not so great. But, I was able to talk with all the teachers when I was concerned and that was a big deal!
My son is in the 6th grade at woodbrook and I have to say I am very impressed with the school. The staff is very interested in the students and provide a variety of field trips, extra curricular activities and night time get togethers. To see how this school works, you only need visit during lunch and see the parental involvement, staff involvements and activities that are provided to entertain students.
I am a parent who sent my son to Woodbrook after he was feeling distressed in the Tacoma School District. Other students and administration worked well to make him feel like he belonged. He was in a gifted program in Tacoma, but all of his classes at Woodbrook were challenging, rigorous and planned in strict accordance to the state standards. This school is a gem- I highly recommend Woodbrook Middle School to any family. My children feel very safe and happy here.
I have been very happy with woodbrook. My 2 children love it, they have great, caring teachers and the school does not tolerate bullying!As soon as kids report it, the adminstration addresses it. Lots of kids get involved. Unfortunately, it's the parents that don't! The only way parents come to evening things is when they can get something for free! what happened to caring about your kids education or getting involved in their school world? Lot's of people complain, but they aren't the ones that actually participate in PTSA or other evening activities! Get involved with you child's work, help them study and learn, quit blaming the school!
This school is really making progress. Parent involvement has increased and the PTSA is making positive steps. The rules are established and enforced. I find that it is easy to contact key personnel (ie. admin, couselors, teachers). My son is enjoying his experience and getting a quality education. I really like their attention to individual reading needs of students.

These are hilarious, I can't even believe there are people who think this way. To 15, congratulations on proving how out of touch you truly are because that is the exact opposite of what a theory is.
Cried laughing, this is the funniest commercial I've seen in a long time.
Omg I can't even get past number 4 I'm laughing so hard
I'm more concerned about the puka shell necklace in #5.
Jennifer Lawrence and Lea Michele hands down top 2.. come on people!
"Literally" is the WORST. It makes me cringe whenever I hear people say it.. and when people start sentences with "wait but like…" *rage*
Chopped.. best show ever, I'll take it.

It concludes Park's trilogy on a dual note of circular tragedy and fragile hope, while working equally well as an introduction to his universe of retribution and repentance or as a stand-alone thriller with a darkly feminist twist.
Unlike the previous two installments, Lady Vengeance generates on odd feeling: hope.
"Old Boy's" vivid star Choi Min-sik plays a terrible schoolteacher -- yet another damned soul in Park's inflammatory, inimitable movie inventory of hell on earth.
Less bloody than its predecessors, Lady Vengeance wraps up with a killer (literally) finale that calls into question the killer instinct. It's one of the reasons Park's brutal films are so emotionally rewarding.
Lady Vengeance is not for everyone. The violence, while less over-the-top and orgiastic than Park's two previous installments, is still hard and crackling. The sex is grim and graphic. And deadpan nihilism permeates the air.
Park is a visual virtuoso, with imaginative transitions and clever use of special effects wrapped around a sly, effective performance from Lee at the center of it all.

ChrisJ.Oct 11, 2006An extremely confusing and disjointed film. Twenty minutes into it I was looking at the time. Park should have steered clear of doing a flashback style movie. He flounders.… Full Review »
AaronM.Aug 16, 2006Incredibly powerful and intensley emotional storytelling. Pefect in a very dark, disturbing way that all drama should strive to be.
Jul 13, 2013"Lady Vengeance" is an unsettling mix of stylish visuals, surreal fantasy, and shocking violence. Chan-wook Park's "Lady Vengeance" is the third and final installment of his "Vengeance Trilogy," which are linked by theme only--not literal sequels. Park positively revels in the artistic possibilities of good old-fashioned badness. Beyond the unsettling storyline, violence, and bloodshed-- there lies a splendor of exceptional film making by Park, and a marvelous performance by Yeong-ae Lee to appreciate. Anyone who has enjoyed the filmmaker's previous works will appreciate what this film has to offer.
After thirteen and half years in prison for kidnapping and murdering a young boy, Geum-ja Lee (Lee) is released from prison and tries to fix her life. She finds a job in a bakery; orders the manufacturing of a special weapon; reunites with her daughter, who was adopted by an Australian family; and plots her revenge against the real killer of the young boy, a English teacher named Mr. Baek (Choi Min-sik.) Geum-ja Lee enlists the aid of her prior inmates and friends, who had come to recognize her for her kindness and caring while incarcerated, and are all too willing to assist in her revenge. Geum-ja is after gruesome justice of a distinctly personal nature. It's her overwhelming grief and anger, and her unwavering conviction in an act she knows will taint her beyond redemption, which in turn gives her obsessive odyssey its intensity.
Reflecting on the "Vengeance trilogy," it becomes apparent that each film focuses on a different aspect of revenge. In "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance," (2002) Park highlights the irony of vengeance, and how the violent and impulsive acts of the main characters all stem from love. "Oldboy" (2003) focuses on the madness inherent in the quest for vengeance. Finally, "Lady Vengeance" is about salvation and the morality behind the need for vengeance. As the final film of the theme based trilogy--"Lady Vengeance" comes across as a combination of its predecessors, with slick cinematography, gorgeous production design, and a wonderful musical score.
The self-imposed sentence served is utterly brutal and gruesome, and yet unconventionally satisfying. Revenge is a dish best served cold, but only enjoyed when shared by a group of like-minded diners, accompanied by a classical Vivaldi score for a final banquet of closure.… Full Review »

UM Coverage Can be Provided by Contract (in the Insurance Policy) or By Law (La.R.S. 22:1295)
Ashanti Green v. Michael Johnson, 2014-0292 (La.10/15/14), with Justice Hughes writing for the Louisiana Supreme Court, held that since the Allstate auto policy at issue contractually included UM coverage, the express provisions of the policy (or contract) governed whether UM coverage existed for the accident, and statutory UM coverage under La. R.S. 22:1295 was not at issue.
Plaintiff co-owned a motorcycle with a friend. When plaintiff was killed by an underinsured motorist, his beneficiaries filed a claim for UM benefits against the co-owner's Allstate auto policy. The express terms of the Allstate auto policy did not provide for bodily injury liability coverage, but did provide for UM coverage.
In granting summary judgment in favor of Allstate, the lower courts relied on jurisprudential language holding that, "it is well-settled that a person who does not qualify as a liability insured under a policy of insurance is not entitled to UM coverage under the policy" as a basis for finding that there was no UM coverage for the accident at issue under the co-owner's Allstate policy. The Louisiana Supreme Court reversed, holding that this jurisprudential language is limited to the provision of "statutory" UM as required by La.R.S. 22:1295, and does not apply to UM that is actually provided for in the insurance policy (or contract). Thus, the Louisiana Supreme Court concluded that even when an insurer is not required by law to provide UM coverage because the policy does not provide liability coverage, the insurer is nevertheless free to contract to provide UM coverage.
After analyzing the Louisiana Supreme Court jurisprudence, the Supreme Court articulated that when the existence of UM coverage under a policy of automobile insurance is at issue, Magnon v. Collins, Succession of Fannaly v. Lafayette Insurance Company, Filipski v. Imperial Fire & Casualty Insurance Company, and Cadwallader v. Allstate Insurance Company demonstrate a two-step analysis:
(1) the automobile insurance policy is first examined to determine whether UM coverage is contractually provided under the express provisions of the policy; and
(2) if no UM coverage is found under the policy provisions, then the UM statute (La.R.S. 22:1295) is applied to determine whether statutory UM coverage is mandated.
See also Bernard v. Ellis, 11-2377 (La. 7/2/12), 111 So.3d 995, 1000 (recognizing that an automobile insurance policy must first be examined for contractual UM coverage, and if contractual coverage is absent, "if a plaintiff is insured under the auto liability coverage, he is entitled to UM coverage" (citing Magnon v. Collins and Filipski v. Imperial Fire & Casualty Insurance Company)). If there is express contractual UM coverage in the policy, it is unnecessary to apply the UM statute to determine whether UM coverage is statutorily mandated.
In this case, the Allstate auto policy provided UM coverage to the plaintiff because he met the definition of an "insured person" since he was a "person while in, on, getting into or out of an `insured auto' with [the policyholder's] express or implied permission." The co-owned motorcycle qualified as an "insured auto" for purposes of UM coverage since it was an after-acquired "land motor vehicle" as set forth in the policy.
The motorcycle did not qualify as an "insured auto" for purposes of liability coverage since it was not an after-acquired "four wheel" auto as set forth in the policy.
Thus, the distinction between the UM provisions and the liability provisions vis-à-vis coverage was that the UM provisions included within the definition of "insured auto," for coverage as an after-acquired vehicle, a "land motor vehicle," which would encompass a motorcycle, while the liability provisions included within the definition of "insured auto," for coverage as an after-acquired vehicle, only a "four wheel" auto, which would exclude liability coverage for a motorcycle.
The Louisiana Supreme Court found no ambiguity in this Allstate policy; the parties clearly intended to extend greater UM coverage to after-acquired vehicles, by defining an "insured auto" to encompass any "land motor vehicle" (with only three listed exceptions), than for liability coverage, which was limited to "four wheel" autos. The inclusion in the policy of differing definitions for "insured auto" in differing coverage sections produced no absurd consequences, and the policy was applied as written.

E90 Pre-Buy Questions
I have some questions and I could use some help, please.
I have had three 3ers in the past and I currently have a 2008 X5. The X5 is the best car I have ever owned. The lease is up next month. Due to my current financial situation, I need to downgrade. It is a very different world today than it was three years ago.
I'm thinking of buying a 328xi, coupe. White on Red.
I have several concerns, maybe you guys can give me your views:
1) My main concern is the transmission. In my last E46, I had a jerky transmission. I got seasick. My mom has the same jerky transmission in her 2008 750. The dealer says it's because the tranny tries to learn your driving style. Because we all sit in a ton of traffic every day, the trans gets confused and starts to jerk. This is totally untrue in my X5. Three years and the drive is still smooth.
Would you guys characterize the transmission in the E90 as jerky?
2) Next, I've never owned a couple before. I usually drive alone, but I have a wife and two small kids. My daughter is still in the booster seat. Do any of you have a coupe and have small children? Are you sorry that you did not get a 4 door instead?
3) I was amazed how hard it is to find a 4 door with Xenon lights. The dealer told me it would have to be a customer order. This is not a cheap car and once you have Xenon's I don't see how you could live without. Is there something that I am missing? Any Xenon problems?
4) Run flats. The E46's runflats shortened my life span by the three years I owned it. I ended up installing conventional Continentals that leaked all the time. Had to fill air every 10 days. The times were properly installed and checked several times. Now, on my current X5, I forget that I have runflats. The difference is amazing. No problems at all. Haven't even had a flat. Is there anything I should know about the E46 runflats?
5) Fuel economy. Without any exaggeration, my 3.0 X5 give my 12.5 MPG, at $4.50 a gallon. I like 8 miles from work and it takes me 1-1/2 hours to get home. What do you guy think I will see on the 328x? I am not buying a non AWD BMW again. The trunk is small enough without the recommended bag of kitty litter in the trunk.
6) Do you guys understand this balloon finance thing: The monthly payment is cheaper, but after 5 years, I still owe $15K to own the car, or I can sell it or trade it in. What if the car is not worth 15K?
7) I can't believe that there is STILL no standard alarm. What will I loose without the alarm? Is it worth installing one?
Here is the car, any advise:
Alpine White
Coral Red/Black Dakota Leather
Aluminum Trim
Premium Package
Value Package
STEPTRONIC automatic transmission
Heated front seats
Heated Steering Wheel
Navigation system
Satellite radio

I have E90 and I like it over E92. of course coupe IS sexy but e90 has beauty of its own, that balanced and aggresive look. I think it looks better.
yes, i do NOT LIKE RUN FLATS! I had a bump after 2 months of owning the car. you got to be very careful of the bumps and pot holes...
it is more functional, will be of ease to put kids in/out, more trunk space. ( I think)
my 335i CAN get 30 MPG if I dont push it so hard. i get about 27 mpg avg. and thats kind of pushing it, going 75 on fwy and be quick on local.
just be deathly afraid of POT HOLES!

Well, my 328i doesn't have anything in/on it except for run flat tires, automatic transmission, and that's just about it.
1) When it shifts, it doesn't jerk but sometimes it does(when shifted at a really low RPM = 1500). Drive it normally, then it won't jerk.
2) I don't have kids (I'm only a teenager) and I got a sedan. Just like you, I drive alone most of the time but with a family the sedan would be a more practical option.
3) Xenon lights are rare on a 328 sedan. Get one if you can. It's something I really like and would do pretty much anything to have Xenon head lights.
4) From what I heard from other people that had run flat from older BMWs, I'd say e90 runflat tires are better nowadays. I'm just unsure with the high PSIs. The rims that comes with the run flats are pretty nice.
5) Fuel economy...not bad, in fact pretty good. When I don't try to conserve gas, I do about 22~24MPG in the city and about 28 in the freeway. When I extremely conserve fuel and get lucky with the green lights, I even hit 28MPG in the city. I've never done more than 28MPG in the freeway. When I drive recklessly, I do less than 14MPG.
6) I don't know anything about financing.
7) Since I'm still a teenager, not having an alarm/and kind of beeps when locking/unlocking the car is really great when I go out. No one hears me going out/going back home = no one gets bothered = I don't get caught/get in trouble.

I'm glad you are asking the right questions now. Balloon loans are for suckers who can't really afford the car... most people that get into them don't have the requisite four brain cells strung together to see anything past the "monthly payment". You are paying interest on that 15k the ENTIRE length of the loan. You are infinitely better off paying the 15k at the BEGINNING as opposed to the end of the loan. Any additional money that you are "saving" is much better suited to going towards principle reduction. DO NOT listen to the car salesman. Go play with an online loan calculator, and sign only after you fully understand how loan/lease/balloon loans, etc work. Pay particular attention to the amount of interest you pay over the loan period.

You all confirmed what I already was thinking...
328xi Sedan, Xenons, 3 year lease.
I will have to order the car. I hope the salesman will honor the price, even if I don't buy out of his stock.
I wish the X1 was available in the US. I would really like another truck and the prices of the X3 are absurd right now.
Thank you all for your kind and helpful replies.

Does anyone remember the eggrolls from Lichee Gardens?
Is there anywhere in the Toronto area that makes eggrolls like that? They were soooooooooooooo good!!!!!
Try Kenny Fongs on Eglinton between Bathurst and the Allen. Kenny was a big time waiter at the original LG and has borrowed many of the old dishes... Mongolian Beef, Shrimp and Scallop Rolls and Egg Rolls almost identical to what you remember. They also make a good Crystal Fold (Lettuce wrap).
They made the best honey garlic spareribs (going back to the original location).
Does Kenny Fong make these as well?
I would love to find similar crispy sticky ribs with a "tooth".
Whenever I try them in other restaurants I get overcooked stewy sweet ribs that are inedible.
I had given up, although I replicate their ribs at home, I would love to find a restaurant that serves them for lazy times.
I don't know about the ribs, but we tried Ken Fong's when they first opened a few years ago, and were not impressed. The egg rolls are, indeed, "egg" rolls, made using an egg crepe, but I found them to be a soggy, greasy mess.
I never said the food was that impressive. In my opinion most dishes are quite average. Just wanted to point out the Lichee similarity on a few dishes.
re: Aardvark
But are they the soft eggrolls that Lichee Gardens had or are they hard?
re: zoohort2
They are soft and round and burnt crispy at each end rather than the flattened down bean sprout variety that you get in Toronto. I can't remember the Lichee Gardens ones. It's been a long time.
re: Aardvark
Oh...these sound just like the ones we used to get at House of Wong (long gone) on Queen Mary Rd. in Montreal. We called them egg rolls with burnt ends.
Oh, the cravings!!!
re: Aardvark
great. another montrealer whining about how great the food is back home. i got news for ya pal, even montreal food ain't what it used to be. see what happened to ben's?
re: Aardvark
The Egg Rolls at Golden Palace are truly fantastic. Open ended crispy egg rolls (hence the burnt ends that everyone remembers) with just the right aount of filling. The restaurant itself is a throwback to the 50's - 60's and the food hasn't changed much since then. Chicken chow mein (same as the chop suey but with dried noodles), Almond Guy Ding, "Canadian" sweet and sour chicken balls, and garlic spare ribs are some of the classics. It's a little on the pricey side, but the egg rolls are worth it. I prefer szechuan style chinese food, but if you're a fan of this style of food you'll enjoy the Golden Palace. It's actually at 2195 Carling Avenue, near Woodroffe. If anyone in the GTA knows of a place that makes this style of egg roll, please share with your fellow chowhounds.
Didn't Dinah Koo do soft eggrolls at Tiger Lily's? She now has a take-out place on Mount Pleasant north of Eglinton, together with Wanda Beaver (of "Pie in the Sky"). Perhaps you should try there.
Here's a blurb about it on the Wanda's website, http://www.wandaspieinthesky.com/
Wanda is happy to announce the opening of her newest store Wanda's in the Kitchen with Dinah, at 1057 Mt. Pleasant Rd. (just north of Eglinton). Dinah Koo of Koo & Co. and Wanda's Pie in the Sky have teamed up to offer Wanda's signature pies, cakes, cookies and tarts as well as Dinah's full line of catering and home meal replacement in one location.
re: FlavoursGal
Dinah made delicious eggrolls at Tiger Lilys and probably makes them today. Since she's a caterer, I would assume that you could order some if they aren't part of the regular stock. But Dinah's eggrolls definitely didn't have burnt ends and, if I recall correctly, had some real finesse. I don't associate Lichee Gardens with finesse :-)
If ever near Malton, at the 4 corners, hidden up on the hill in a small plaza is a Hakka Restaurant at one end. While the food is more enormous than great/good, the egg roll is worth enjoying. They make a chicken egg roll and slightly flat with a very tasty wrapper, very different and original for a small adventure! The cook staff are Chinese, while the wait staff Indian!
I do remember the eggrolls at Lichee Gardens. And the Mongolian beef and the Moy Tun stoves. For a while they had a booth in a corner of the Food Building at the CNE. I remember when Lichee's was behind the City Hall, before they moved to Dundas, then Eglington then University. Was a sad day when I stopped by to pickup food and found them closed for good. I used to go to night school at Ryerson. One night after school I stopped by Lichee's to pickup 4 eggrolls to go. While I was waiting, none other than Red Skelleton walked into the lobby. He visited Lichee's every time he played Toronto.
re: Dimbulb
I'd heard that Lichee Garden moved to Thornhill. Has anyone been to the new location? If so, is it the same as it was when it was located in Chinatown? My mom used to take me there for special occasions. If I remember correctly it was a huge dining room. I must check out their Thornhill location as Chinatown is much too dirty for me nowadays.
I'm happy dimbulb replied.
I was about to be AMAZED that the thread went so deep without anyone realizing Lichee still exists.
They reopened in Thornhill about two years ago now. And, yup, it's the same huge, greasy egg rolls.
Hopefully that'll hit the spot for your "Lichee-style egg roll" cravings...
Thanks to Dimbulb & fleisch, I now again believe in the eggroll fairy... I'll be on Lichee's doorstep before the weekend is out...
I haven't seen a place yet in recent years that makes a good, old-fashioned egg roll (other than homemade from my own mother's kitchen). Years ago the restaurants that made them switched to using cabbage which is cheaper, and can be prepared ahead/keep longer than bean sprouts which pretty much have to be made same-day and have no shelf life. Now it seems that you can only get spring rolls, and if there are egg rolls they are the nasty/heavy cabbage ones. And they shouldn't be soggy, no. A bit oily maybe, but definitely crisp and fresh. Mourn the poor eggroll!
Oh my gosh, this is too funny. It's so nice to see so many fans of Lichee Gardens. My parents started taking us to there when we were little kids (1950's!!). My Dad told me this cute story that I never forgot and I ended up with my own very similar story.
When my parents were married in 1954 they couldn't afford to buy a car so my Dad would take the bus home from work. On their first anniversary my Dad decided to surprise my Mom by bringing home an order from Lichee Gardens. It was a cold November night and he said that the delicious smell from the Chinese food had everyone on the bus stealing glances at him as their mouths were watering. Well my family ended up moving to Boston in 1970 and whenever we came back to Toronto for a visit Lichee Gardens was always our first stop . We had a few favorite dishes but the Egg Rolls were our very favorite. Several years ago I made a trip back to Toronto by myself and decided to surprise my family by bringing back a bunch of Egg Rolls. While I was on my way to the airport I stopped at the restaurant and ordered 50 Egg Rolls to go. While I was waiting for my order I got talking to one of the waiters who had been working there for years and he remembered my Dad and even knew what his favorite dishes were. Anyway, I got my big bag of Egg Rolls and went off to the airport. It was absolutely hilarious when I was going through customs and had to declare my 50 Egg Rolls. The Customs guy had a big laugh and said "people usually brought back tea, Smarties and crumpets...Egg Rolls was a new one on him! " Well it didn't take long for everyone on the plane to be able to smell the food from Lichee Gardens and of course it took me back to the story that my Dad told when he was bringing home food from Lichee Gardens as a surprise for his family. I have so many fond memories of this restaurant and I am very happy to hear that they are still in business. Honey garlic ribs, Chicken Soo Guy, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Beef Chow Mein....ummmm!!!!
re: LorrieK
The food is just as you remembered it..Mongolian Beef is fabulous!!!
Event the carpet reminded me of the old location on Elizabeth Street.
re: JesseJensen
Okay, so remind me. I was young enough that my Dad let me stand on the seat to look out the window and I remember the restaurant was on an upper floor. I'm guessing that was around 1958 or so. Where was that? Then they moved to Atruim on Bay (I think that's right??) Now Thornhill? My Dad will be thrilled to hear that they are still open because he was under the impression that they had closed their doors for good. He lives in California now and doesn't get back to Toronto as often but he is planning a trip back this summer.
re: LorrieK
Lichee Gardens was on Elizabeth a few doors from the Dundas corner on the west side on the street.
Just below it in the basement, was an excellent real Chinese restaurant with no name only the address No.11
My parents would eat at Lichee Gardens only.
We ate their almost every Sunday, for years.
There was also New Nanking a little further south on the west side of the street..
Once Lichee moved, my parents moved on, as they swore, it just wasn't the same.
re: erly
Like most restaurants, consistency in Chinese restaurants is all about chef continuity. That is why what was once good is good no longer and even vice-versa. In the heyday of Lichee Gardens in the 60/70's, movement of staff was limited, not like these days. Can't imagine the new Lichee is anything like the old one on Elizabeth. Btw, Chinese friends of mine tell me that the old Lichee and its contemporary Sai Woo preferred Caucasian customers and were actually rude to ethnic Chinese customers...perhaps another reason why they no longer exist today downtown.
re: T Long
Lichee dates way before that.
I was a child when my parents began their love affair with this restaurant.
That would be late forties .
There were few Chinese in the city at that time, as immigration was restricted.
I have never tried the new Lichee, as the Atrium version was a great disappointment.
Egg rolls from Lichee Gardens restaurant are not cooked in an egg roll wrapper, they are wrapped in an egg wapper (like an egg crepe). I don't remember the egg rolls from when I was a child but I do remember how famous the restaurant was and how good the chow mien was.
Lichee Garden Cantonese Restaurant used to be located in Chinatown in Toronto when I was young. We're talking the 50's here folks. It opened around 1948 and was such a popular restaurant that people came from miles around, even from New York City, to eat there. They moved a few times and are now in Richmond Hill, ON
We just found them again and have been there twice. The food is every bit as good as I remembered it to be. Everything arrived piping hot in covered dishes. The chow mien was incredible! The chicken was moist and flavourful, I can't say enough about it. The won ton soup is incredible; although it is served in a small bowl there were at least five big won tons in it. The egg rolls though were a surprise, instead of being wrapped in a traditional egg roll wrapper they are wrapped in an egg wrap. this is good for people who follow a low carbohydrate diet. They were twice the thickness of regular egg rolls.
The service was wonderful, the server was extremely attentive but was never intrusive. We had eaten our soup & egg roll then asked if we could be moved to a different table as being short in stature we found the table a tad high and uncomfortable. He was very accommodating and moved everything in such a manner that we felt he was totally enjoying doing this. Needless to say we tipped him heavily.
I was a tad unsure when we first arrived because their new location is in a strip mall with a bit of construction going on in front. However when we went inside I was so glad that we decided to go there. It is tastefully decorated and clean. They apparently don't serve lunch during the summer months, only dinner. We arrived during the lunch hour; the staff was just arriving and getting ready for the dinner crowd and they graciously offered to serve us. it was a very tasty lunch.
I am a Chinese foodaholic and can inhale a complete dinner in an instant but after eating the won ton soup & GIANT egg roll (did I mention it was a GIANT egg roll?) I could only manage to eat a few forkfuls of the combo plate. We ended up with a doggy bag that fed me for 2 more servings.
I'm so glad that Lichee Gardens is every bit as good as I remembered. We will definitely go back, especially for dinner.
The only thing I didn't care for was the fried rice but that's a personal issue as I prefer plain rice and don't care for fried rice from most Chinese restaurants.
If you're ever in Richmond Hill you just gotta try this place. What a trip down memory lane this was. They're on Centre Street in Richmond Hill.
re: Wee Mousie
I wanted to write in and tell everyone that yes indeed Lichee Gardens is still as good as it ever was. We just returned from a trip back to Toronto and made a point of checking out the new digs.
First let me get the two negatives out of the way. The location is a drag. It is so far away from everything, horrible traffic and a ton of traffic lights. And secondly the strip mall where it is located is unsightly. That aside, once you step in the door it feels as lovely as it always did. It is very clean, the staff is incredibly friendly and food was delicious. We ordered all of our favorites...honey garlic ribs, egg rolls, beef chow mein...etc. and nothing has changed. Yum, yum, yum!!
The woman who is now the owner came over and introduced herself. My impression is that she also is a longtime fan and has no intention of changing anything but is struggling to bring it back to what it once was. I'm worried about this and frankly I am not sure how she will pull it off. Back in the 50's and 60's when you went out for Chinese food this style of cooking was all there was and in my opinion Lichee Gardens was the best at it. Now there is Hunan and Schezuan not to mention all of the other Asian options such as Japanese, Thai, Korean, and Vietnamese cuisine. Cantonese style cooking may be a thing of the past. I know my own kids don't eat it, they find it to bland.
I think that all of you Lichee fans really ought to get out to Richmond Hill, give it a whirl and let's all try to lend this struggling establishment some support. Long live Lichee Gardens!!!!
Lichee Garden is now in the process of moving back to Toronto . . to the Theatre District. I think this is a good move for them as their Thornhill locations wasn't a very good one. However the food there is so good that they could locate anyplace (with the exception of China Town in Toronto which is so disgustingly filthy) and I would follow them there. Check out their web site at: http://www.licheegarden.ca/
I'm looking forward to going there when they reopen even though it will be a good hour and a half drive to get there. Like they say in the advertisement for some coat factory ... "It's worth the drive to .... "
re: Wee Mousie
oooohhhh I can't wait to try it when it opens. All these rave reviews! I visited Toronto when my friend was in school. I never went to Lichee Garden, but I do rmmbr seeing the entrance around the Atrium.
re: Wee Mousie
Any recent information on the anticipated move of Lichee Garden to the Theatre District?
I am also desperately searching for 1) Lichee Gardens, 2) alternative place who makes the smae egg rolls from Lichee Gardens, or 3) A recipe for The Lichee Gardens Egg Rolls.. Have you had any luck?? Thanks!
I remember the eggrolls at Lichee Gardens, they were fresh made with bean sprouts. They grew the bean sprouts in the kitchen in large drums full of circulating water. They brought me in back once to have a look. Also as a kid they would make pink milk, milk with cherry juice.Battered shrimp were my favourite. The waiters always remembered your name and I used my dads number (his tab) to write on the cheque.

Heart-Breaking Pictures of Child Labour In USA by Lewis Hine As hard as things might seem right now for high school or university students entering the job market, it's probably nothing compared to what these kids had to go through in early 1900s America. This photo series, archived by the Library of Congress, shows what conditions were like for child laborers before child labor was largely eliminated in 1938. The photo series, taken by photographer Lewis Hine on behalf of the National Child Labor Committee, illustrates the dangers and hardships working children were subject to, especially in dangerous work where the modern safety equipment we're used to was not yet available. The kids, some as young as 4, worked in factories, mines, plantations and textile mills. Children in coal mines inhaled damaging dust daily, while those working in canneries or textile mills could lose fingers.

How People React When Complete Strangers Fall Asleep On Them On The Subway Most of us are all about compassion towards our fellow man, but would you let a tired stranger rest their head on your shoulder for a quick snooze? New York-based artist George Ferrandi has put that to the test in her quirky and fun photo project "It felt like I knew you." The premise of Ferrandi's project is simple – she pretends to fall asleep on a total stranger on the NY subway system, and her associate Angela Gilland captured their reactions on her phone. Most people were, not surprisingly, surprised. Some commuters, however, let Ferrandi snooze, while others either woke her or moved their seats. Why Some People Almost Always Take Awesome Photographs By Light Stalking on in Guides If you have ever spent serious time working or learning from a well-known professional photographer, then you will come to realise that some of them barely ever take a bad photo. While it can be a little disheartening to see the shots from an afternoon and know that their worst shot is better than your best, it also means there is a technique to the craft that can be emulated.

Rare Historical Photos Show 1910s Imperial Russia In Glorious Color Given how many historical photos are video are shot in black and white, many of us can forget that the past was also in full color – we just don't get to see it. However, these photos of Russia in the beginning of the 20th century by photographer Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky give us a rare glimpse into the past in full and glorious color. Color photography, in the way that we understand it, was not possible at the time, but it was possible to create a color image for the viewer by completing three separate photographs. Prokudin-Gorsky had to take three separate photographs of the same subject – once with a red filter over the lens, once with a green filter, and once with a blue filter (red, green, blue – RGB – is a set of color channels used by many digital images as well).

Riverside Personal Injury Attorneys
An injury sustained in an accident can be even more expensive than it first appears, resulting in costly medical bills today and in the future. A skilled Riverside personal injury lawyer will be able to help you get all of the compensation you are due.
Are My Injuries Someone Else's Fault?
Personal injury law is a branch of civil law known as "tort law." In tort law, if someone causes your injury, then they are legally liable.
Client Testimonials
Negligence: Negligence is a word that has a common, everyday meaning as well as a special legal definition. Normally, negligence just means carelessness. The legal definition is different. Negligence means a violation of a duty to take reasonable care. In the United States, everyone has a duty of reasonable care towards other people. That duty varies based on the situation and the parties.
For example, a doctor owes a higher duty to a patient on his operating table than to another doctor's patient in the waiting room. However, the doctor does owe that waiting patient a duty of reasonable care. If the doctor negligently set the hospital on fire, that would be considered a violation of the doctor's duty of reasonable care to everyone in that hospital. But, he has to take special precautions to keep his patient safe.
Intentional torts: It makes sense that if someone can be liable for accidentally injuring you, then they can be liable if they injure you on purpose. If someone assaults you, purposefully damages your property, or kills a loved one on purpose, then you have a claim against them for compensation. Contact a Riverside personal injury lawyer if this happens to you or a loved one.
Strict liability: In California, there are some injuries that are always a certain person's fault, no matter how careful they were in trying to prevent that accident. If these injuries happen, someone is strictly liable. For example, if a dog bites someone, then the owner is strictly liable, even if the dog was properly restrained.
In order to prove that you are owed compensation, you have to prove the following four elements:
- The defendant had a duty of reasonable care;
- The defendant breached that duty of reasonable care;
- That breach caused you an injury; and,
- Your injury caused you some kind of loss, otherwise known as "damages."
In California, you can get compensation for your injuries even if you are partially at fault for your injury. If someone else is partially at fault, then you can get partial compensation. There are a lot of nuances to personal injury law, which is why it is vital to have an experienced and skilled personal injury lawyer on your side if you suffer an accidental injury.
What Exactly Is Personal Injury Law?
Personal injury law is a branch of "tort law" which is a kind of civil law. Civil law is law that is not criminal. For example, someone who is arrested for tax evasion or vandalizing a building goes to criminal court. Non-criminal matters are dealt with in civil court. Tort law is the part of civil law that allows citizens to address their problems with other citizens or companies in court. This way, citizens can be compensated for their injuries with the force of the law behind them. "Injuries" does not just mean physical injuries. It can also mean:
- Diminished quality of life
- Property damage
- Emotional suffering
- Mental anguish
- Loss of earning potential
Accidents That Are Covered by Personal Injury Law
If you are injured in an accident and it is someone else's fault, it is likely covered by personal injury law. Your Riverside personal injury attorney will know for sure if the accident you were in is something you can be compensated for. Some examples of accidents that are covered include:
What to Do After You Are Injured
If you are injured, there are a lot of steps that need to be taken. Some are immediate and some will happen days, weeks, or even months after you are hurt.
Get medical attention right away: Your health is your best asset. Always seek immediate medical attention, even if you feel like your injury is minor. You cannot know the severity of your injury. Additionally, it is important that you have documentation of the harm caused by the accident.
Gather evidence from the scene of your injury: If possible, take down the information of witnesses, license plate numbers, important details, etc. You can also call nearby businesses or the city to see if they have surveillance cameras in the area where your accident happened.
Do not talk to an insurance company without an attorney: The insurance company's job is to pay you off as cheaply as possible. A personal injury lawyer will not let them get away with that.
Contact an attorney as soon as possible: An experienced accident lawyer will know exactly how to get you the compensation you deserve.
Contact a Riverside Personal Injury Attorney
If you have been injured, contact The Reeves Law Group today by calling (951) 324-5174 or by sending us an email. We have over 25 years of experience helping accident victims recover compensation. Let us help you.

It's been just over a year since our first performance at the World Famous Whisky a Go Go, and we've now made it to the top of the marquee as the HEADLINER! A special thanks to everyone that has made this a reality, most notably our wives and girl friends that put up with our crazy schedule. And thank you to the amazing team at the Whisky, from the bookers to the bartenders, the security guys and of course the Sound Engineers. We debuted some new material and are excited to put it out to all of our fans on our upcoming EP release. So, stay tuned for that!
FALL 2014 SHOW: The Whisky a Go-Go
And we're back… At the Whisky. Come on out and see us Saturday Night, we're going on right before the headliner. It's always a good time out in Hollywood, so mark the calendar, and make it out to the show. This will be our last show until Winter, so don't miss it – Tickets are available at the door.
"HOPEFUL" Lyric Video
Now you can enjoy our music even more with this Lyric Video of "Hopeful." Created by Starch Monkey, just for you. We first ran the music track through our design program After Effects, then downloaded a bunch of cool stock footage and then edited everything together in Final Cut Pro – We had a blast making it – Hope you enjoy it!
Our Store is now Open!
New Limited Edition T-Shirt Designs.
Behind every great musical act is a great artist who creates visual images to reflect the heart and soul of the music. We are very fortunate to have Eric Robison from Imagiboom Entertainment as a major contributor to the visual aspect of our work. Edge and attitude, that's what Eric brings to "Monkey Art". From his creative headquarters in Hawaii, Eric has created some of the art used for our show posters. And now, a few of Eric's pieces are being released as part of our "Starch Monkey Custom T-Shirt Series."
Featured below is a piece titled "In Yer Face." We will be adding new designs on a regular basis and hope you will be adding these shirts to your regular wardrobe. Go to the "MERCH" tab and see what we've got!
Thanks for your support and "Rock on."
Hey everyone! We are one week removed from our third appearance at the world famous Whisky a Go Go on the Sunset Strip and what a show it was. This was our first show since October and a lot has changed with us since then. Rashawn Bump joined Starch Monkey just about one month prior to the show at the Whisky, so he had to ramp up very quickly and he really delivered.
We love playing the Whisky…it was our very first gig as a band last year and we have had a blast all three times. Just being in that space that has so much history is a humbling and exciting experience. This latest show was interesting for us too because we wanted to debut three new tracks that we have yet to record and that demonstrate the evolution of our sound. These three new tracks ("In My Hands", "Take Me Home" and "Grand Central Breakdown") have a heavier mix of keyboards which allows Jim to show everyone just how talented he is on keys. These tracks are also a bit of a departure from some of our more straight-forward rock tracks (like Days Gone By and Contentious) and allow us to show some more nuances while still rockin out. It was really great to get feedback on these new songs from all of you who came to the show. The show itself felt really good for all of us up on stage. Live shows are always a bit of a combination of excitement and raw terror for me because no matter how much we prepare at our rehearsal studio, the unexpected can always happen….but that's what makes it fun! It was a GREAT crowd and my hat goes off to all of you who continue to support us and continue to come to our shows.
Your support means a lot to us and I am so appreciative that you enjoy our music, and the venues are too! Just a few days after the show, the Whisky contacted us and asked us back, again. So we are going to do it all again on Friday, March 21 and hope that you all can kick off your weekend with us. You can get pre-sale tickets right here on this site and we can't wait to see you there. All of us hope to do more posts like this in the future too so you can get a little more insight into what goes on behind the scenes. Thanks for listening, thanks for reading and can't wait to see you all again soon.
Rock on.
Announcing the addition of Rashawn Bump as the new lead guitar player for Starch Monkey. Rashawn is a So. Cal. native and fellow alum of the Musician's Institute. "I placed a musician wanted ad at MI and when Rashawn answered, I had a good feeling," remembers Wetmore. "At the audition, we literally just counted into 'Days Gone By' and he NAILED it."
Rashawn joins Starch Monkey as they prepare to go back out on the Club Circuit and back in the studio to record their next EP. "Rashawn really breathes new excitement to the dynamic of Starch Monkey" adds Rellas, "his guitar skills open up new lanes for me as a Songwriter as I begin to add keyboards into the new tracks. So great"
Come out and meet Rashawn and hear some new Starch Monkey music at their first show of 2014 at the World Famous Whisky a Go-Go, Saturday night, February 1st.
2014 is shaping up to be a great year already. The Whisky asked us back for our third time! So mark your calendars for Saturday night, February 1. We're scheduled to go on after 9, but be sure to get there early! We're opening for Hollywood Roses, the Guns and Roses Tribute band – this is sure to be a great night. So get your tickets now because this time they will spell our name right on the marquee!

If you are a bit of a South African wine nerd, you may well have come across bottles with a distinctive white label, with a red key logo to the side and rather plain black script, with the name CAPE WINEMAKERS GUILD prominent. You don't see so many of them in the UK, but they're a common sight in top restaurants and collectors' cellars in South Africa. These are wines that have been sold at one of the Cape Winemakers Guild (CWG) annual auctions, and they're considered to be among the best the country has to offer.
Simonsig Kaapse Vonkel Brut NV: Well, if I had to sum this wine up in one word it would be WOW! As a huge fan of fizz my expectations were high and if I am honest, I was expecting to be disappointed. How wrong could I be - this wine is one of the BEST I have tasted and at a fraction of the price. A MAJOR thumbs up from me!
