Bites Man- The Hazards of Owning A Dog |

| I
happen to be a huge dog lover, so let there be`
no claims that I am biased against dogs They
make wonderful companions. I currently own two

article, however, is about laws that are not
considered stupid by most people. (read

Copper Top”, or the “Nike Swish”, for
example, and immediately the brain will
translate that image into a bunch of
associations with that particular trademark. (read

Salvacion |
| Employment
discrimination based on age is a reality in the
workplace. Hence, workers and employees with the
age of 40 and above are protected against
discrimination under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act. The law says that an employer
may not fire, refuse to hire, and treat you
