God
"From the Saxon god, good. The source of all good; the supreme being. Every man is presumed to believe in God, and he who opposes a witness on the ground of his unbelief is bound to prove it. By article 1, of amendments to the Constitution of the United States, it is provided that ""Congress shall make no laws respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."" In the United States, therefore, every one is allowed to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience.
God and my country
When a prisoner is arraigned, he is asked, How will you be tried? he answers, "By God and my country." This practice arose when the prisoner had the right to choose the mode of trial, namely, by ordeal or by jury, and then he elected by God or by his country, that is, by jury. It is probable that originally it was "By God or my country" for the question asked supposes an option in the prisoner, and the answer is meant to assert his innocence by declining neither sort of trial.

Going concern
The Transfer of Undertakings Regulations apply where an undertaking is sold as a going concern or where a unit within a business is contracted-out or where the contractor is changed. In the event of such a transfer, the employment rights of those employed by the seller immediately prior to the transfer are preserved and become the responsibility of the buyer. Dismissal in connection with the transfer gives the employee a right to claim unfair/wrongful dismissal against the transferee. What a "going concern" is, is a matter of fact but transfer of goodwill is usually the key criterion. Prior to the transfer, there are obligations to consult with the appropriate representatives of the employees who may be affected.
