Barbara Ehrenreich has been a well known and respected writer for years, with her biting, witty critiques of politics and economics in such books as "The Worst Years of Our Lives" and "Fear of Falling." Five years ago, she suddenly leaped onto the bestseller lists with "Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By In America," in which she attempted to make a living on minimum wage jobs, including waiting tables at a chain restaurant in Key West.

Where's the outrage that reproductive specialists and sperm facilities are capitalizing on these feelings?

It's big business for everyone involved, except the poor women and couples being played. One bank blatantly outlines "donor" compensation on its Web site. Stating that payment shouldn't be the only reason to become a donor, it follows with: "Earn up to $1,000/month. Be your own boss-donate at your convenience up to three times a week ($75/donation)." Give me a break...

Neuropsychological injury claims are made by persons who assert that they have suffered neurological damage and psychiatric sequelae as a result of trauma to the brain, regardless of whether there was actual contact with the brain in the incident itself. This article was inspired by a seasoned trial counsel's remark, addressing the difficulty of encountering the neuropsychological witness in a case where there is no head injury, or where there is mild or moderate head injury at best. Overall, the trial lawyer's style in presenting the case to the jury is key to a successful defense of these cases. Done well, it is much like a carefully choreographed dance. This article addresses the medical and neurological knowledge necessary to defend these claims. The lawyer is judged by the jury thr...
