My Partner contracted out of the state second pension (S2P) some years ago. He has had a letter from the pensions company (Scottish Mutual), telling him that he may be worse off if he remains contracted-out, and he should think about contracting back in.

as pensions are very confusing. Could someone explain the difference between contracting out, and being contracted in? What are the implications of staying contracted out as he is, or choosing to contract back in?

He is 46, works full time.

Choose to live in the world like an Ostrich. (Just like in Noah's day)
No I am not wearing a tin foil hat and use my time to research when not at work. I am a Christian I believe that Jesus is returning soon, and to me Global Warming is a Plague spoken in the Book of Revelation, and many of the earth's problems are written in the Bible God always showed his power, vegnance through Climate and weather pheonemana.

As far as the Mayan Calendar they don't speak of the world blowing up but changing in a dramatic way, could that mean the rapture, Jesus's return to earth, Sunspots that might cause the earth to scorch and burn, not sure but if you read current events, study scripture, look at science discoveries and look at the condition of the human heart and spirit in the world, you would have to be deaf dumb and blind not to see that what Jesus said is coming together in a prophetic way.
Hope you are ready..Are you?

I think not!

Let them clean up their own and create jobs for these unskilled and uneducated workers!

You people who support are part of the problem and you make this a racial issue!

Hi, it'd be great if someone could answer this and explain this problem to me:

Two bugs start at the origin, one travelling along the positive half of the x-axis and the other travelling along the positive half of the y-axis. Each bug moves 1 unit on the first move, 1/2 unit on the second move, and so on, where on any subsequent move, the bug moves only HALF as far as the immediately preceding move. How far will the bugs be apart, assuming their moves are frequent and over an infinite amount of time?

I think this has something to do with limits? But I don't know how to set it up. Thanks in advance to anyone who'll help me! :)

which politician is which when enacting a smear campaign?

NEW YORK - Fox News Channel issued a second on-air apology Wednesday for mistakenly running tape of a different congressman while reporting on the indictment of Rep. William J. Jefferson on bribery charges.

Chairman John Conyers of Michigan, whose picture aired while Fox anchors talked Monday about Jefferson's indictment, had been unhappy with Fox's apology Tuesday. Both congressmen are black.

Conyers was reportedly upset that Fox's first apology was nonspecific and didn't mention he was the victim.

On Wednesday, Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum explained to viewers that a production assistant picked up a tape that had been identified as a meeting about Jefferson. The picture showed Conyers.

"We regret this mistake," MacCallum said. "We in no way meant to suggest that there was any connection between the Jefferson indictment and Congressman Conyers. We have extended our apology privately to the congressman and we do so here as well."

A Conyers spokeswoman had no comment about the second apology.


Fox is just like the * administration. It blames its deliberate lies on the mistakes of underlings.

I gave a thirty day notice when I paid my rent this month. When i moved in to this apartment I paid first and last months rent plus a security deposit. Is my landlord required to refund my last months rent and the security deposit?

Thank you for responses.

When a woman walks up to you and says "i'm pregnant", do you ask her when the puppy or turtle is due?

For those who say its not a human being or just a potential human being... Unless the woman was getting freaky with the family dog, that is a form of a human being. If you are now 20, 20 years and 8 1/2 months ago, that was YOU, not a FROG.

I feel for anyone in a bad situation but how that leads women to this idea of killing their developing child just amazes me. Beyond that is these weird excuses pro-abortionists come up with like 'its not human'.
