When The Kids Do The Crime Who Should Be Held Responsible?
The long argued debate over parents paying for their kid's crimes was opened up again when the Los Angeles City Council was scheduled to discuss passing a law that would hold parents financially responsible for the graffiti vandalism caused by their children.
Under the proposed law, parents would be made to compensate for such vandalism and the money would be used to help clean and restore damaged property. Parents also would be required to participate in parenting classes.
L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca announced publicly, the arrest of two adults and 10 juveniles in an anti-graffiti sweep targeting two main areas in city.
An Australian court, in July 2004, ordered the parents, of two teenagers, to pay (on an appeal) $60,000 to the owners of two properties, set alight by the teenagers. They had caused $400,000 worth of damage and one of the homes had to be totally rebuilt. The ruling is believed to be an Australian legal first.
Judge Denis Reynolds said the parents had generally been responsible around the time of the arson attacks. But he said they had not adequately supervised their children, who were using amphetamines and cannabis, as well as drinking alcohol.
Judge Reynolds said the compensation order was not to be seen as further punishment for the parents.
Kalgoolie lawyer, Carmel McKenzie, the lawyer representing the teenagers' parents, argued her clients acted appropriately and responsibly during the period of the children's upbringing. She said the parents did not deserve to be punished for their crimes of their children. She went on to say, "We're used to, in our society, people being punished for what they have done but the concept of punishing somebody for something somebody else has done is obviously an unusual situation".
One of the victims of the fire said, "At the end of the day, these are your children and they are your responsibility whether you like it or whether you don't".
There are however, others who would argue that the guardian cannot be held liable for willful actions committed by the child unless there is proof that the child was specifically led to the end result that a crime was committed.
While the argument over whether parents should be held responsible for their children’s crimes has raged for many years, Texas passed ordinances that imposed fines on both the parents and the underage criminals.
Silverton, Oregon, was the first state to adopt such a law in 1995, where parents can be charged up to $1,000 if their child is found carrying a gun, smoking cigarettes, or using illegal drugs. Parents who agree to participate in parenting classes may avoid the fines.
In the first two months after the law was passed at the beginning of 1995, seven parents were fined and many others enrolled to take part in parenting classes. The Oregon law applies to parents "failing to supervise a child". It covers misdemeanours like breaking a curfew or skipping school. Fines range up to $1,000, with a payment of up to $2,500 to be paid to a victim. Juvenile crime rate has dropped 53%, since the law came into being.
Thirty-three states, across America, now require parents to pay retribution for crimes committed by their children.

How to Make Your Own Swarovski Crystal Beads Earrings
Can there be anything as beautiful as a pair of earrings emblazoned with Swarovski Crystal Beads? Swarovski is the most recognized name in beautiful works of crystal. It was inevitable that stunning faceted crystal beads would become high-style jewelry. The shimmer of Swarovski crystal beads in earrings are perfect for formal or casual wear. Now, it's possible to buy Swarovski crystal beads where ever beads are sold for those who want to make their own Swarovski crystal beads earrings.
What You'll Need:
Depending on the type of earrings you plan to make, pierced or clip on earrings, you can find the basics in most any craft store. Another suggestions is to take a good look at the earrings you already own and see if there are any that have gold or silver lever backs, hook wires or studs that can be updated with Swarovski crystal beads. These have the advantage of a head start to creating a new pair of earrings with all the glitter of Swarovski crystals.
You might also want to invest in a pair of jewelers pliers, glue, wire and jewelry string. Once you start to make your own Swarovski Crystal beads earrings, you'll be so thrilled with the initial results that it just might become a hobby. The great thing about Swarovski Crystal beads is that there is now available a wonderful array of these beads in colors and shapes with which to create custom earrings no one but you will own.
Plan Your Designs:
It's important to plan the designs for your earrings before you attempt to make your first pair. You can paste Swarovski crystal beads to stud earring findings with jeweler's glue. Or, you can begin by adding several beads to ear wires in contrasting hues. Some craft stores even provide pre-cast settings that only require the addition of a bit of adhesive before adding the crystal beads.
Most of the findings for lever back earrings for pierced ears have tiny open loops at the front so you can just add a small string of crystal beads to this. It's also possible to string beads and add a small bead cap and a jump ring (a small ring with an opening). Then, just attached it to the loop in the earring. This makes a wonderful beaded dangling earring effect. You can also use gold or silver craft wire to create small strings of beads. Twist the wire for a completely different earring design. Bead caps are a great way to accent a particular style. They are available in Cloisonne, pewter, gold, silver or copper as well as Swarovski's own bead cap.
Simple Designs Using Swarovski Crystal Beads:
One of the simplest designs that looks absolutely stunning is a single Swarovski crystal bead hanging from a silver or gold chain that attaches to a hook, clip on or lever back earring. This is where a broken necklace with a gold chain can become part of your new Swarovski crystal beads earrings.

When you buy jewelry like earrings what do usually buy with it that matches?
I have just started making pierced beaded earrings and will be making some matching pieces to sale with my earrings, so do you usually buy the earrings by themselves or do you buy the matching necklace and or the matching bracelet too. Or are you just a person who likes just necklaces or just bracelets.
I wear what I want, and rock it like nobodies business! I just adore three piece sets. They can pull an outfit together.

What is the typical eye color of silver tabbies?
They look white with black stripes. From what I've observed, white cats tend to have blue eyes and cats with black stripes (like grey or brown tabbies) tend to have either green, yellow, or yellow/green eyes. So, for the silver tabby which is most common?
Also, how common is amber eyes in silver tabbies? Not yellow, or orange, but inbetween yellow and orange.
The PROPER eye color of silver tabbies in any breed is GREEN. I've seen some gold/amber, but that is not the proper color.
From the American SH standard (CFA):
SILVER TABBY (classic, mackerel): ground color, including lips
and chin, pale, clear silver. Markings dense black. The silver tabby
genetically is a shaded cat expressing the agouti pattern, therefore
the undercoat should be white. Nose leather: brick red. Paw pads:
black. Eye color: green to hazel; green preferred.
