I had given up on child support. I did all the legal stuff to get a court order and a garnishment order to no avail. I have only received 2 full payments and 1 half payment in the last 9 years. I am owed 15,066.00. It should be more, however, for my own sanity I left it at that approx. 8 years ago. I was more than willing to give up a percentage to Support Kids to retrieve anything, if not just put him in jail. I feel like my child is being punished financially, why should'nt he! I just found out there was a tax intercept of $50 that the state took for whatever and that they were sending out a garnishment order. I was actually sent a card to access the potential payments. There have yet to be any payments and I doubt there ever will be. Can anyone offer some advice? Keep in mind that I am in New Orleans and have lost all contact with the noncustodial parent. I couldn't tell you much before the storm and I can't tell you anything after. The state seems to know where he is.

Of all the contradictions and inconsistencies in the Bible, few make more of a mess of things than the four accounts of the crucifixion and resurrection as given in the four gospels.
Here we have a single narrative, told by four different authors, that is so contradictory that I've never seen an explanation of it. It will be interesting to see the fundamentalists untangle this mess. For the sake of brevity, we'll just pick up the story on that first Easter Sunday:
When the sun was coming up (MT 28:1) while it was still dark (JN 20:1), Mary Magdalene (JN 20:1) or Mary Magdalene and the other Mary (MT 28:1) or "the women" [note the plural] (LK 24:1) went to the tomb. There was an earthquake, and an angel came down and rolled the stone away (MT. 28:2) from the entrance of the tomb and sat on it, even though it had apparently already been rolled away when Mary Magdalene had got there (JN 20:1, MK 16:4, LK 24:2).

The song is about a guy who takes parts home from work every day a little at a time and builds himself a car. It was one of my dad's favorites and I want to put it on his memorial website. Thanks!!!

The price has gone way up recently. Supply and demand. Liberals are making runs on foil for their hats to keep the CIA from listening to their thoughts. The gov't can do that now, you know. It says so in the Patriot Act.

this is my first time ever dissecting a cadaver. I never had a problem before, with pigs, frogs, cats, deer heart, sheep brain, etc... The last two labs I have had to leave after about an hour. My head starts to buzz, and then I realize I can't really hear what is going on around me and I start seeing spots. I've tried to control my breathing, pinch myself and chew gum... I am totally annoyed with myself! I am a strong willed independent person who prefers to be in control of myself...and this is beyond my control. I am very frustrated. Any tips would be helpful.

SINGAPORE: The Internal Security Department (ISD) has arrested an ex-lecturer whom it said had made plans to pursue "militant jihad" in Afghanistan.

Abdul Basheer s/o Abdul Kader, 28, was arrested in February this year, said a Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) statement on Friday.

He is a "self-radicalised Singaporean", said the statement.
...
According to the MHA, Abdul Basheer began to develop militant jihad ideas in late 2004, after being affected by the radical discourse he read on the Internet.

He was then a lecturer in an educational institution, after having practised law upon his graduation from a university.
In October 2006, he left for an unnamed Middle Eastern country where he planned to live for two years, learning Arabic so that he could communicate with "mujahidin" fighters.

But within two months, he had decided to embark on "militant jihad" immediately.

Brothers at War By: Patricia Hermes?

So, here's the deal,

my little brother was assigned this last minute of the last week of the school year book report. (dumb i know) He was assigned the book called 'Brothers at War' and he thought he could find it in our house, but we can't for some reason, and so when he and my parents checked the library today they said there isn't such a book in our county even! the report is due monday. his teacher is lame and deosn't understand why this is hard for him, and she expects him to do the report and write about it and have it on her desk by monday.

so my question is, deos anyone know a website you could like read the story online. or find script notes on it? I know it's kinda cheating ,but this is the the easiest thing we could do without someone getting injurned somehow.
if you read this whole dilemma, i thank your good choice in people.

so if anyone can help, please and thank you.
and i'm not using wikipedia. it's unreliable.

I hear a lot of Christians say that since God loves us so much he gave us free will so we could choose to be with him in heaven or to not be with him and go to hell.Basically we can choose between good and evil.Again my question comes from Genesis and the story of th tree of knowledge. It was the devil who tempted adam and eve into eating from the tree and thus they gained knowledge of good and evil. Now, one cannot make a choice in one direction when they only know about the choices in another (You cannot choose a hot dog over a burger if you have no knowledge of the existence of hot dogs). Before eating from the tree of knowledge adam and eve had no knowledge of good and evil and therefore would not be able to make a choice between one or the other. Since without choice there's no free will and the devil tempted adam and eve into eating from the tree thus giving them knowledge of the choices they could make (good and evil) couldn't it be said that the devil gave us free will not god?

With my husband deployed, his truck sits more than it is driven and where it is parked is under a lamp post where it becomes target practice for bird poop. Aesthetically I'm not really concerned with it, since I barely drive it and it needs a good detailing anyway before he gets home, but is it going to severely damage the paint if I leave it go a few weeks at a time?

Over the course of my life...things have happened that make me wonder about 'signs' of something. Doesn't neccesarily mean God or Heaven....just 'something', perhaps destiny and fate.

Well, a couple of years ago, my stepmother gave me a Gone With The Wind watch that played Tara's theme. She told me that once the battery in it is dead, it can't be replaced.

Well, she passed away this year from cancer. But the watch also died. The hands don't tick anymore, though the song still plays but very distorted.

Coincidence? Or something else?

(please no mean answers honestly...it's not even been 2 months since she passed away so I'm being serious about this and not poking any fun, please be serious in return.)

And why do Jehovahs Witnesses become so defense when you bring up the origins of there religion?

Whats wrong with accepting the fact that Pastor Russel tried to scam people with "miracle wheat" and Rutherford went to jail for treason?
