Norwich University, 169 Vt. 118; 730 A.2d 1086 (1999), was reversed by a split decision on appeal, but the award of compensatory damages was upheld and established the important legal proposition that a University may be responsible for the acts of hazing committed by student leaders authorized to orient and indoctrinate first-year students.

She might be able to get it done by downloading the form, sign it, and take it to the US consulate/embassy where she is, and get it notarized, mail it back to you. That's what I can think of and it should be legal and valid in USA once it's been notarized by a notary officer in any US consulate. Good luck.

I need samples as well. please help.

If you are applying at a company where you already know someone who works there, it might not hurt to say something like, "I've had the pleasure of speaking with several acquaintances* who work for your company, and they have all had good things to say, such as... From their comments, XXX company seems to be a very positive working environment. I am looking for a position where employees' achievements are appreciated, etc... and XXX company seems to offer the type of environment where I can develop my skills, etc... In turn, I offer...". If you are using this approach, don't drop names or details about your friends. Instead of using the word 'acquaintance', you might even just say that you spoke with 'some company employees'. This way, you won't raise any flags. Some companies don't like to hire friends or relatives of current employees, so keep it as discreet as possible.. . Lastly, a cover letter lets the employer see how well you write and communicate. By that, I don't mean handwriting. I mean, can you communicate effectively via the written word? Do you have good grammar and spelling? Do you write clearly and politely? Can you write a cohesive paragraph? These are all very important skills, especially since we rely so much on email and the Internet for much of our day to day communications today.. . So yes, a cover letter, tailored specifically to the job for which you are applying, is very important and should be done carefully. It IS your marketing tool, for in it, you are selling YOURSELF. Your resume sells your skills, but the cover letter sells YOU.. . Good luck!

Yes, I would agree with that. It goes on the assumption made by governments and urban planners that the working classes are the bulk of the population. They earn the lowest incomes so are most likely to resort to crime, and they are assumed to be the least intelligent and thus not care too much about the consequences of their actions (though I would disagree about them being all that unintelligent!). Such a demographic is thus deemed the most likely to be troublesome and rebellious, and in need of control. This is done by insidious urban planning. It masquerades as convenient city design with housing and transport links provided en masse, but there are also other reasons.. . Perhaps the biggest example of this is the Baron Haussmann design of Paris. After the revolutions of 1789 and 1848, Haussmann was appointed city refurbisher, with the design brief of making Paris safer, both for its citizens and for its rulers. At this time, what the moneyed classes of Paris feared most was the descent of the revolutionary mob from the poorer quarters to the east such as Belleville, which had a reputation for the people power for such uprisings. To counter this, the Canal Saint Martin was constructed north-east of the centre, to defend against such a people movement, and entire areas were reconstructed.. . Close-knit knots of streets in slum areas were knocked down and its people displaced, in order to scatter them away from the hubs of wealth and power in the city. These areas, which had before been impregnable dens of plotting and uprising, were levelled, and newer, wider straight streets with low-rise buildings were built in their place. This had the ulterior motive of making Paris more open, and also much easier for troops and riot police to be transported around the city in times of need. Broad boulevards were deemed harder for people to barricade, and were also linked to the main train stations, so that security forces from the provinces could arrive and be easily deployed if they were called upon. Such planning is widely believed to be the reason why the Paris Commune in 1871 only lasted for about a week, rather than the longer previous revolutions. It is also believed to be the inspiration for the 'grid' design of cities in New World countries such as the USA, Canada, Australia and Argentina.. . In many cities around the world a more segregationist approach is taken, with areas deemed to be more working class or 'troublesome' barriered off from wealthier areas, by a transport link of some kind. This has the effect of hemming in possible problematic groups, and confining them to areas from which they are unlikely to stray too often, and where they can be easily reached if 'control' is required.

I am looking for a template for a letter I'm writing to my city's parks department requesting modifications to a tennis court to better fit the needs of a bike polo club that meets there twice per week. Nobody else uses these courts as there are much nicer courts within walking distance. Does anyone know where I can find a free template that addresses both the request details and the impact on the community?.

Have you ever read "I Was Born on a Blue Monday"? He has a fairly extreme "disorder" (actually it could be a form of genius for all we know) but what you describe could be similar to a lesser degree.
