Extractions: Home First published 1/1/1998; Student Lawyer magazine, "Online" column ; American Bar Association Activities, interaction, entertainment - these are both the means and the ends of communities. Whether you live to work or work to live, you do so in the confines of one ore more physical communities. With the Internet revolution now about five years old, it is the rule - rather than the exception - that Internet connectivity is likely to be available to your fellow and sister community members. And so the time is ripe to use Internet technologies to extend our physical communities into cyberspace. Communities on the Internet can supplement how we interact with members of our physical communities. But they can also extend those communities to include members who otherwise would not participate. In addition, entirely new communities can develop on the Internet, communities whose members may not ever meet face to face. For example, there are foreign nationals in the United States who have benefited from Internet communities dedicated to keeping cultures and languages alive. The law student community is one that stands to benefit greatly from Internet communities. Imagine a forum where you could hang out at a virtual lunch table and discuss the latest Supreme Court case - not just with your classmates from law school - but with law students from all over the country and the world. Imagine an online bulletin board where you could post your course outlines, writing projects, and resumes. And imagine having it all in one place in an easy-to-use format.

Extractions: This section provides some information on ways to resolve family problems. It is to your advantage to understand what the law says about the rights and responsibilities that come with being a spouse or parent. Or you may be wondering about the rights and benefits available to seniors. You can get a good overview of these areas from the publications listed in There are many different ways to resolve family law problems. As a spouse or parent, if you can talk to your ex-partner, you may be able to work things out between you. If you do, it is useful to put any decisions or agreements you make in writing. For example, if you are receiving child support and your ex-spouse has agreed to pay additional money for daycare for your daughter, try to confirm this new arrangement in writing. Resolving some family law problems has been made easier in recent years because of new laws and guidelines. For instance, the process for determining child support is fairly straightforward now because the law is clearer about both parents' responsibilities. As well, guidelines are in place to help courts determine the amount of child support payable.

Extractions: As the society in which we live becomes more complex, more and more people need the services of attorneys. Legal questions affect all aspects of our business, economic and personal lives. People often turn to attorneys for help in such matters as real estate transactions, divorce, adoption, business organization, estate planning, bankruptcy or litigation. To help you with these problems, attorneys often use employees called "paralegals" or "legal assistants." The team of individuals who will work with you may include both attorneys and paralegals. The purpose of this brochure is to help you understand what a paralegal is and the role he or she may play in your case. A paralegal is a person who is qualified through education, training or experience to perform legal work under the direction and supervision of an attorney. Paralegals perform a large variety of tasks that would otherwise be done by attorneys. The paralegal profession is a fairly new field, but it is growing steadily not only in size, but also in well-deserved recognition throughout the legal community. What Do Paralegals Do?

Search Archives Page 1A Schoolyard bullies get nastier online Hurtful messages can hit kids anytime, anywhere By Jon Swartz USA TODAY SAN FRANCISCO When Joanne had a row with a longtime friend last year, she had no idea it would spill into cyberspace. But what started as a spat at a teenage sleepover swiftly escalated into a three-month harangue of threatening e-mails and defacement of her weblog. It was a non-stop nightmare, says Joanne, 14, a freshman at a private high school in Southern California. I dreaded going on my computer. The bullying eventually stopped after her parents and school officials intervened. But Joanne remains shaken by the experience. The incident reflects the latest way technology is altering the social lives of children at an age when they are especially vulnerable to insults. The emergence of cyberbullying has intensified adolescent angst. It allows bullies to unleash put-downs, nasty rumors and humiliating pictures in e-mail and blogs that can strike victims at home and at any time. The damage can be devastating, psychologists say, even as it is not always obvious to parents and teachers. Cyberbullies, mostly ages 9 to 14, are using the anonymity of the Web to mete out pain without witnessing the consequences. The problem aggravated by widespread use of wireless devices such as cellphones and BlackBerrys is especially prevalent in affluent suburbs, where high-speed Internet use is high and kids are technically adept, says Parry Aftab, executive director of WiredSafety.org, an online safety group.
