<Massachusetts has a "One day, one trial" policy. So if you don't get called the first day, you've still fulfilled your obligation. Your name is put back into the mix 3 years afterwards. You can postpone your date up to 6 months after the first one assigned, but you can only change it one time. Once you turn 65, you can request to have your jury duty at the courthouse closest to your home. Once you turn 70, you can decline to serve.> This sounds very similar to California, except that I believe that your name gets put back into the mix in two years instead of three, but I am not sure about that. I was not aware of being able to request to have the jury duty at the courthouse closest to my house after 65, but that sounds like a reasonable idea. You can certainly decline to serve after 70 in California by simply writing a reason on the form. What is odd is that I posted on this thread two days ago (on Saturday), but the it did not show up on the front page until today for me. So I tried to start my own thread on Sunday, and it disappeared within two or three minutes after I posted it, and I attempted three times. I had saved my message as a text file before attempting to post, and so I did not have to keep writing it. It was basically the same message that I wrote here two days ago. I have no idea why those thread disappeared, but I blame it on the Sunday gremlins. Our sister, who is a lawyer in Austin, Texas, told Kevin and me that we could get dragged into court for not showing up for jury duty, but if they did that for everyone in L.A. County who did not show up, the courts would be doing nothing else. I think it is slightly more difficult to get a jury when the population is very diverse - at least it seemed that way when I went for jury duty in San Francisco. A lot of people had English as their second language, and they got dismissed fairly quickly. One woman from Guatemala got dismissed because she told the judge that she could not be fair. She said, "No, I cannot be fair - I am brown," meaning that she could not have fair skin. There were a lot of characters that got called up for jury duty in San Francisco when I got called, which was around 1979, I think. We were not allowed to read books in the courtroom, but one woman had brought her knitting and got stern looks from the judge and the D.A., but it was not against the rules, and so they could not make her stop. It made me wish that I had known how to knit.

OK, I looked up the Anatomical Gift Association option in Illinois. They are not overrun with Covid cadavers becasue they don't accept them. (That should have been obvious to me; it's a highly communicable disease!) I can fill out forms online and register with them; revokable at any time. They may keep a cadaver for two to three years. When it's done 'teaching', it's cremated. The family decides in advance if it wants the ashes; if not, they are disposed of properly -- which is by being *interred*, BTW. The donor can ask to be used by a specific medical school -- there are five in the Chicago area. They only accept intact, whole bodies; no organ donors. It's certainly an inexpensive way to dispose of a body no longer of any use to you, but of great use to science. The only expense is whatever a funeral home charges to transport a body from place of death to the AGA on Chicago's south side.

Sturgis also was timed with a surge in the host county, Meade (and neighboring counties), but other cases were imported back to . https://covid19.biglocalnews.org/county-maps/index.html#/county/46093 Germany fell behind in v******* rates, compared to their neighbors. They are now instituting charges for tests and a digital pass, similar to other EU countries that have demonstrated large amounts of success.
