I think the underlying reason for the defense lawyer to bring up the sexual history of the victim is not to simply discredit her veracity but to discredit or demean her in the eyes of the jury.
Rape is a crime of shame, less now than it used to be but still it is there. Before the trial even begins ...

With summer in full swing I'm reminded of my failure to complete a flip off the diving board. It's weird, I get a little more than halfway through and then wham! my lizard brain takes over and I violently twist out of the flip to land (often painfully) on my side/stomach. I tried repeatedly and no ...

Its all about Liberal (aka Communist) Judges who want to make policy from the bench, they use the everyone in Europe is doing it approach to justify making rulings that have absolutely no basis on American law.

A point about Martial Arts and self defense. While I would recommend it to everyone, with the right dojo/sensei, a few years of physical training wouldn't have helped that girl if she was foolish enough to meet that man. One sucker punch or a sharp blade and it would all be over. But training at a ...

This article didn't surprise me. I've often heard of women being hardier as a gender when looked at from conception on.
It makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint. An individual female is more valuable than a male. One alpha male can father numerous children in a short period of time and push ...

Well,
I tried all the cheats I could find on the net but none referred directly to alignment. It probably could be done but i can't find the correct term for alignment. Strength is STR, for example, but ALI for alignment doesn't work. I guess I could find it somewhere in the game files but it's not ...

Cheats for alignment change Spoiler
I've been having fun playing an assasin in HotU but when I went to level up in Cania I found out I was neutral. It probably happened while I did the sleeping man quests and brought Aribeth back.
I tried killing her off and butchering pilrims but it had no effect I could see. I even attacked the ...

I believe it's the Saturan cavern you're looking for. If you can levitate go right over the hills from Suran, NE I think, and it should be right there, a little left or right along the main path that follows the hills on the other side. If you're walking, head east or maybe southeast along the coast ...
