SULLIVAN: Bush unlikely to tell truth on torture in address LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, 1/26/2006 SCHUMANN'S VIEW, 1/26/2006 STAFF EDITORIAL: Budget shortfall could be political blessing Sign Up for the Daily Nebraskan News Update (enter email address) Sports News more info privacy policy Search WWW Searchunl.edu STAFF EDITORIAL: Bar breathalyzers might foster competition, not safety October 05, 2005 safety Last week the Daily Nebraskan reported on the growing trend of putting breathalyzers in bars. Bars in some cities such as Boulder, Colo., have breathalyzers by the door. The idea is that people leaving can test their blood-alcohol level before getting behind the wheel. While a noble attempt to curb a disturbingly large national problem, it seems to take only one step forward and two back. Although it may convince a few people now and again to flag a cab or give the keys to a friend, it presents an even more disturbing issue: drinking for sport. These machines quantify how plastered bar patrons are. There’s a high likelihood these breathalyzers, in a place like O Street, would tempt some drinkers to try to get a high score by shooting air into a plastic tube instead of shooting darts at a plastic board. Despite the potential to sell more drinks to college students shooting to blow a .20, many O Street owners don’t like the idea of breathalyzers in their bars, so they’re not likely to catch on here too quickly. And that’s a good thing. After all, it shouldn’t be a digital read-out that gives you the no-go to drive. Bar patrons should be responsible enough to know after more than a couple, it’s time to turn the keys over or call a cab. And if they’re still not certain, they probably shouldn’t be driving anyway. Last year Lincoln averaged about 4.5 drunk driving tickets and just less than one drunk driving accident per day, according to Lincoln Police Department records. That’s 270 completely unnecessary and likely preventable accidents. But it shouldn’t be public breathalyzers that prevent those tickets and accidents. It should be the driver who prevents it from happening before he of she even takes a sip of beer or shot of whiskey. As the popularity of these beer-o-meters spreads across the country, it should stir up more talk about how to prevent drunk driving. The sobering discussion should steer toward solutions like more taxi cabs for patrons to use and bar-issued vouchers to prevent early-morning parking tickets being given to people who made the right decision the night before. Installing breathalyzers, though they transfer some responsibility to patrons, would be blowing an opportunity for Lincoln to address its larger problems surrounding bar patronage.

DUI lawyers, The Chestney-Hawkins Atlanta Georgia DUI Lawyers Atlanta Georgia DUI Lawyers Atlanta Georgia DUI Lawyers The Chestney-Hawkins Law Firm is 100% Dedicated to the Successful and Aggressive Defense of Georgia DUI Cases Many attorneys claim to be DUI defense lawyers, but they simply handle guilty pleas. The Chestney-Hawkins Law Firm is exclusively dedicated to fighting Georgia DUI cases. Although most cases do not have to go all the way to trial, we take every case with the attitude that we will go to trial if necessary to avoid a wrongful DUI conviction. This means that prosecutors don’t expect us to plead guilty – and we don’t. If you have been accused of DUI, this means that we enter a “not guilty” plea on your behalf and then do everything possible within the law to get that settlement or verdict – Not Guilty! Before you decide to just plead guilty and “get it over with,” please give us a call to at least discuss your rights and all your options. A DUI arrest does not have to result in a DUI conviction! Over the past several years, we have handled hundreds and hundreds of DUI cases all over Georgia. In 2003, we won another landmark case in the Georgia Supreme Court. To read about some of our other many victories, please click here : georgia dui victories. To read about our recent Supreme Court victory, click here . (Reprinted by permission of the Atlanta Journal Constitution.) In Georgia, even a first-time DUI has serious consequences, so choosing a lawyer to defend you is an important decision. We certainly don’t have to tell you the difference it makes – to your insurance rates, present and future employment, fines, and many other economic costs of a DUI conviction. If you’re buying a house, any competent Georgia attorney can help you close the transaction. But choosing the right attorney to defend you when your rights and freedom are at stake is a serious matter. We suggest that you talk to several lawyers before you make this critical decision. But please make sure that our law firm is on your list. Unlike most attorneys who advertise as DUI lawyers, The Chestney-Hawkins Law Firm doesn't defend murder, robbery or sex crimes; we don't handle divorces or bankruptcies. We only defend DUI cases (and related charges such as vehicular homicide). Our entire office is geared toward this specialized area of the law. And we don’t advertise in the yellow pages or on television or on billboards. In fact, we get almost all of our business by referral from other lawyers. Simply put, this is because we have an unparalleled reputation among local attorneys for expertise and success when it comes to aggressively defending DUI cases. Each of our lawyers is specially trained and educated in the unique aspects of DUI defense, and devotes almost 100% of his or her practice to this area. Our lawyers are either attending or speaking at DUI defense seminars for other lawyers several times every year. We are the only law firm in Georgia, and one of only two firms in the entire country that has two lawyers who are Board Certified by the National College of DUI Defense. While our offices are conveniently located in the Buckhead area of Atlanta, we defend DUI cases all over the northern half of Georgia. Please give us a call or email today. It doesn’t cost a dime to talk to us. Like most law firms, we offer a free initial consultation. This gives you a chance not only to meet us, but also to discuss your case and get all your questions answered by attorneys who have spent years doing nothing but defending cases like yours. Even if you decide to hire another lawyer or just enter a simple guilty plea, we strongly suggest that you at least contact us to discuss all of your options. You can call us at (404) 816-8221 or send an email to info@atlanta-georgia-dui.com , or fill out this information form .

George W. Bush acknowledged Thursday that in 1976 he was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol near his parents' home in Kennebunkport, Maine. Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush admits that he was arrested in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol near his parents' home in Kennebunkport, Maine ( 433 K/40 sec. AIFF or WAV sound) Bush, who was 30 at the time, pleaded guilty, paid a $150 fine and his driving privileges were temporarily suspended in Maine. Late Thursday evening, following a campaign rally in this tightly contested Midwestern state, Bush--with his wife, Laura, at his side -- told reportersnews accounts of the incident were accurate, that he had been drinking in a barwith Australian tennis pro John Newcombe and others. "I'm not proud of that. I made some mistakes. I occasionally dranktoo much, and I did that night. I learned my lesson." Bush said he was not jailed after the arrest. "I told the guy (the arresting officer) I had been drinking, what do I need to do? He said, 'here's the fine.' I paid the fine." Bush said the timing of the initial news report, just days beforeAmericans elect a new president, was "interesting." When asked where the storymay have originated, he said, "I've got my suspicions." Campaign aides of Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore andofficials with the Democratic National Committee both said they first learnedof the arrest from news reports Thursday and said it would be inappropriate tocomment on the matter. Gore spokesman Chris Lehane said the vice president learned of thestory while flying from Chicago to a campaign event in El Paso, Texas. Kevin Kelly, news director of WPXT, a Fox television affiliate stationin Portland, Maine, said his station broke the story after one of its reporterslearned of the arrest while covering an unrelated matter at the localcourthouse. "Somebody made a reference to it," Kelly said. The reporter followed upwith phone calls, including one to the Maine Department of Secretary of State. Kellysaid the department responded with a fax that detailed the 1976 arrest. Kellysaid the reporter also talked to the arresting officer, who verified theincident. Kennebunkport Police told CNN on Thursday night that the charge against Bush -- operating under the influence of intoxicating liquor -- was a Class D misdemeanor. Karen Hughes, Bush's spokeswomen said the 54-year-old Texas governor, who has been open about his past drinking problems, had not publicly disclosed the arrest because not even his 18-year-old twin daughters were aware of it. He has said he gave up drinking the day after his 40th birthday. At a campaign appearance Tuesday at a charity center in San Jose,California, that helps people deal with addictions, Bush said, "I was able to sharewith some of the men and women here that I quit drinking in 1986 and haven'thad a drop since then. "And it wasn't because of a government program, by the way -- in myparticular case, because I had a higher call." Hughes told reporters that on the night of the arrest, Bush had beenat a bar in Kennebunkport with three friends and his sister, Dora. After heleft, she said, he was pulled over by police about a mile away from hisparents' home -- apparently because he was driving so slowly. Hughes said Bush now believes drinking and driving is wrong and hasacknowledged, as he did at the time, that what he did that night was a mistake. Hughes said she has known about the incident for a while but Bush'sdaughters found out Thursday evening. Hughes noted that Bush has admitted to past irresponsible behavior which he does not consider a good example to set for children. "The timing of an announcement like this, four or five days away fromthe election about an incident 24 years ago, which the governor's daughtersdon't even know about, is certainly questionable," Hughes said.
