There will really come a time that we will be face with legal issues. I understand that not all of us are familiar with legal terms and the law in general. That is why a person when he is faced with a crime is provided with a defense lawyer and on the other side is a council which is known as their prosecutor. Both councils contitute a lawyers who are really expert in that field. For instance, there are lawayers who's specialization is more on criminal laws, there are for taxation and the rest maybe for other fields. Some lawyers have also a lawfirms, on which they can accept certain cases depending on their field of specialization. I knew how tough the job of a lawyer because i have a friend who belongs to that profession. He was complaining how hard is it to gather data and to formulate the case. It is indeed helpful if a lawyer belongs to a certain law firm because there are more lawyers who woudl do the brainstorming. Speaking of law firms, i have heard of a lawfirm that specializes in Indiana Banrkuptcy Law and according to some reviews they offer great service and their firm has already a track record in terms of bancruptcy law. If only my friend who lives in Indiana knows about them, im sure she can settle her business problems very well, with no hassles. Anyway, if you need their expert advice. Just visit their site.

Whats your Facebook Status?
Facebook is the most popular social media avenue in the world. You can easily see updates of your friends and even browse for your classmates. But, did you know that Facebook then was just intended for Harvard Students. Check their history:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark Zuckerberg wrote Facemash, the predecessor to Facebook, on October 28, 2003, while attending Harvard as a sophomore. According to The Harvard Crimson, the site was comparable to Hot or Not, and "used photos compiled from the online facebooks of nine houses, placing two next to each other at a time and asking users to choose the 'hotter' person".
Mark Zuckerberg co-created Facebook in his Harvard dorm room.
To accomplish this, Zuckerberg hacked into the protected areas of Harvard's computer network and copied the houses' private dormitory ID images. Harvard at that time did not have a student "facebook" (a directory with photos and basic information). Facemash attracted 450 visitors and 22,000 photo-views in its first four hours online.[12][14]
The site was quickly forwarded to several campus group list-servers, but was shut down a few days later by the Harvard administration. Zuckerberg was charged by the administration with breach of security, violating copyrights, and violating individual privacy, and faced expulsion. Ultimately, however, the charges were dropped.[15] Zuckerberg expanded on this initial project that semester by creating a social study tool ahead of an art history final, by uploading 500 Augustan images to a website, with one image per page along with a comment section.[14] He opened the site up to his classmates, and people started sharing their notes.
The following semester, Zuckerberg began writing code for a new website in January 2004. He was inspired, he said, by an editorial in The Harvard Crimson about the Facemash incident.[16] On February 4, 2004, Zuckerberg launched "Thefacebook", originally located at thefacebook.com.[17]
Six days after the site launched, three Harvard seniors, Cameron Winklevoss, Tyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra, accused Zuckerberg of intentionally misleading them into believing he would help them build a social network called HarvardConnection.com, while he was instead using their ideas to build a competing product.[18] The three complained to the Harvard Crimson, and the newspaper began an investigation. The three later filed a lawsuit against Zuckerberg, subsequently settling. Source : Wikipedia

Now it has reached almost 600 million users worlwide and in fact the most visited sites daily. One of the most talked about feature in Facebook is its, Status version. I love how they made it so simple yet so touchy. When you choose in a relationship status, then your Gf/BF will be linked to your page. Quite romantic, right?
So, Whats your Facebook Status?
Misleading
I am a little bit pissed because i was able to grab an opp in one of the site i joined. However when i tried to check it at the reserved page, it wasn't there. My goodness, i don't know what is happening with the system. I am really sure that i have reserved it and worst i made a post already in my blog. How i wish, it would come back. Anyway, if it didn't, its really not meant for me.Later tonight, we are planning to visit the friends wake. She just arrived yesterday and so we decided to come over tonight. Im sure there are plenty of friends that we will meet there. We are schoolmates and became good friends when i worked at Cebu. Her death was really a shocking news to everyone because she was pretty healthy the last time we met. She died the other day and the funeral will be at Sunday. My brother will also be going home to attend the funeral. To Kim, may you rest in peace. We will surely missed you.
