Ever wonder how people get into being a model or spokesperson for advertising? How you can get in commercials or who those people in infomercials are?

They are only lucky to a degree. Many are there because they took the first step to get into television media. And you can too.

Bear in mind, that many of our famous actors and actresses got their start in television commercials and look at the success they have achieved! Opportunity knocks, make sure you answer the calling. This could make you, or even your child the star that everyone wants to be.

Best of luck in your journey to Hollywood!

Judge Crossed Line

Filed under:Ethics — posted by Tom on @ 6:46 pm

 A judge that has always been light hearted and made the courtroom fun, often joking. The people he worked with enoyed the atmosphere he provided. He was exuberant his first 4 years on the bench, then he toned it down.

In 2005, an offended person has filed a complaint against him. And transcripts have been reviewed by the Maryland Commission on Judicial Disabilities. They concluded that  a number of his comments were, crass, profane, sarcastic, disparaging and undignified.

This is the first time a hearing of this caliber was held for a judge since 1984 when a judge was removed from the bench for forging documents.

The judge recognizes he crossed a line but maintains he was not mean spirited. He says he was trying to communicate in a language the criminal defendant could relate to.

One defense attorney that was often in his court said “he isnt funny like he used to be”, and can see the councils concern. It’s a serious job, and I understand the commission’s point that you have to have the appearance of judiciousness

A jury in deliberation discovered evidence that investigators and prosecutors missed… And entered a guilty verdict.

A jury deliberating on a bank robbery case discovered the note written to the bank teller during the robbery. It was not in ink, but rather, the indentations that were created when he wrote the note in a notebook.

The note read:

“This is a stickup. Don’t panic or you could put the life of your teller in danger. I won’t hesitate to kill. 20’s, 50’s, 100’s. Please! Thank you.”

An off duty sheriff foiled the attempt. One man received 16 years and the other got 10.

The District Attorney commended the shard eyes jury members.
