tall ugg boots A jury has ordered Last century Fox to pay $19 million for stealing a top school teacher's ideas for what had become the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Jingle All the Way. The 1996 movie, in regards to the last-minute quest of two fathers on an in-demand Christmas toy, has grossed $183 million.The film was credited to Ed McQueen, who the lawsuit claims is really Fox script-reader Randy Kornfield. But the U.S. District Court jury said Tuesday the show was clearly based on Detroit biology teacher Brian Webster's copyright script. The script was provided for Fox in 1994.Fox spokeswoman Florence Grace said the video company will appeal."Fox copied nothing, infringed nothing as well as in no way violated any of the plaintiff's rights," said Grace.Fox lawyer Michael Huget told The Detroit News that Kornfield wrote the plot outline without accessibility to the script.During the six-week trial, retired University of Michigan film professor Ira Knoigsberg testified he found 36 points of overlap relating to the scripts for Jingle All the Way and Webster's Could This Be Christmas? "You can't have 36 coincidences in an independently created work," said Robert Laurel, president of Murray Hill Publications Inc., which bought the rights to Webster's play and sued Fox for violating the copyright. Murray Hill has said the dialogue, plot and also names were similar.The jury on Tuesday awarded Murray Hill $15 million plus $4 million in legal costs. Laurel said Webster would receive an undisclosed share; the script was Webster's first to get published."This is a landmark case for independent producers," Laurel said. "Hopefully, it's going to send a message that you can't consider the little guy's work and set it off as your own."By Joseph Altman Jr. © MMI The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.

www.rotarysouth.org/michaelkors-com.html This article was written by CBS News chief invesigative correspondent Armen Keteyian and CBS News producer Phil Hirschkorn. Thousands of American civilians are deployed in Iraq — a shadow army providing you with logistical support to the troops, just one that puts their endures the line as well. Most of them seek the mission for patriotism and high pay — often double what they earn at home. But the opportunity is fraught with risk, and a lot of contractors complain they fight a fresh battle when they come home for medical help and compensation for their war wounds.As of mid-November — more than 3? years after Operation Iraqi Freedom began — 7,987 civilians utilized by U.S. companies are already injured on the job in Iraq, and 679 have already been killed, according to the latest Labor Department statistics.Retired Army Sgt. Sam Walker is probably the many civilian contractors who suffered injuries on account of an insurgent attack and contains struggled to get help since coming home. His problems began several days before Christmas 2004.Walker had sat down with friends for supper in a military dining tent in Mosul. Because he popped a french fry as part of his mouth, a suicide bomber was just steps away."The next thing you understand, there is a bright explosion coming — a bright light coming toward me," Walker says. "I am picked up and thrown over the table then, from the explosion."The blast burned the inside of his head, and shrapnel wounded his elbow and knee. Copper wire from the bomb's detonator stuck to his clothes, as did human flesh. Twenty-two citizens were dead.One of the victims wore a wedding band. "His arm was laying with a stretcher, but his hand was hanging off," Walker says. "I may even see blood running down his finger from his wedding band."In his nightmares, Walker relives the horrible experience frequently. Bad memories are triggered by odors such as the smell of french fries and sights as fashionable as that wedding band. Walker is at the Mosul mess tent on Dec. 21, 2004, because immediately after leaving the army, he had visited work for Kellogg Brown and Root, known as KBR, a subsidiary of Halliburton, the main private company hired through the Pentagon to help rebuild Iraq and secure the troops. Walker earned a six-figure salary for owning a recreational facility for soldiers. As soon as the bombing, Walker went home to Georgia. He couldn't work, developed a short temper and became socially withdrawn. Walker says KBR just forgot about him."They didn't call and say, 'Hey, how ya' doin'? Is everything OK?' Didn't hear everything from them," he says. no previous page next 1/2

It is filled with water, as well as a bunch of metal debris."The wreckage burned some nearby trees but was smoldering when crews arrived shortly after the crash and wasn't in flames, he was quoted saying.The F/A-18C is the standard Navy and Marine Corps fighter and in addition is flown by the Blue Angels Flight Demonstration team.The Hornet, this comes in a two-seat version, was utilized extensively in strikes against Iraq during the Gulf War.©MMI Viacom Internet Services Inc.

The east entrance to Yellowstone remained closed, meanwhile, as a consequence of an encroaching 10,000-acre fire. Park officials assembled evacuation plans for 2,000 visitors and park employees at Fishing Bridge Village if your fire, about five miles out of the village Saturday, gets much closer. Also Saturday, some people evacuated from their homes in Provo, Utah, were in a position to return after officials said the structures lost of danger.
