"Madeleine McCann's mother has returned to the UK for a brief visit - as a new campaign is launched to raise awareness about the missing four-year-old.

Kate flew out of Portugal with her brother and sister. They are joining Madeleine's father Gerry, who is already in Britain."

Well I guess this development answers a few things but also raises some questions.

1) It looks as though the McCanns don't have any travel restrictions put on them by the police and are free to come and go as they please.

2) Where the hell are the twins? The article would definitely have mentioned it had they taken them with them so once again the twins are left behind in Portugal.

3) Who is paying for the other McCann family members to keep coming out to visit them? You can bet your bottom dollar its coming out of the 'fund'. It says Kate returned with her brother and sister. The McCann's relations are always flying back and forth to the Algarve. Is this coming out of their own pockets?

I am a US citizen, and my English is fluent, but it is not my native tongue an when I am tired, my foreign accent comes out. It is actually quite slight, but still audible.
Often, when I would apply for jobs over the phone, I would notice the interviewer would become tense and ask me the " Where are you from originally?" question. When I would answer, there would be a mood of grave concern on the other end and they would never call me back. Mostly business jobs and all.
I also got called a "foreigner" on one job and told to "get out".
Once I was applying for a job as a teacher and the school asked me to fill out an application form. They had a "Place of Birth" box" which is illegal". I brought it to their attention and they said that the parents in the school were mainly Chinese and they would ask "where the teacher is from" before allowing that person teach their kids. What are legal recourses for foreign-born US citizens to combat such discrimination?

I feel like I'm going to break apart... Just found out that my lover is dying from lungs cancer now. I can't lose him just like that.
He promised that he would marry me when I'm older... Any advice for me? I KNOW I'm just a teen, but I'm mature enough and I know that I truly love him.

It's my man's birthday and we recently bought a home. We also have lots of toys; 4 wheelers, jeeps, and snowmobiles. I puchased a tool chest and now have to fill it with everything he could need to do home repairs, vehicle repairs, you name it! Everytime he goes to fix something he never has the right tools and he feels bad always having to borrow. If anyone would like to offer a list of items I should purchase, please let me know! I only have until August 5th!

I was speaking to a friend about increasing the signal on my WRT54GS so I can use it 2 floors up in my house (in a new extension)... Currently I get 0% signal, but after buying a Linksys Range Extender (putting it halfway) I could get about 50%...

But he said to me the best way to increase signal would be to use a hacked firmware such as HyperWRT (I know there are many others but he recommended this to me) which is simple to install, and would allow me to increase the antenna power (increasing the signal).

Apparently EU models are restricted to 28mW, whereas American ones are 50mW, but the full limit is 250mW (which would damage the router)... You can only change the power with the hacked firmware..

I was wondering:
a) does increasing the power leave a health risk?
b) how far could I go up without damaging the router?

Thanks.

My mother passed away last year and I inherited everything in her 10-room home. She was a collector - big time. I attempted to contact antique dealers and estate liquidators, but nobody was interested. It seems the antique market is flooded right now and no one is taking on any new consignments. I've been attempting to sell the house contents by staging a private estate/lawn sale on weekends, but it's just too much work for me. I also discovered that people won't look through boxes - they want it out on display, so this makes a lot of extra work for me. Yesterday it took me two and a half hours to pack it up. Today I can hardly walk after the exertion of carrying packing up dishes, glassware and carrying tables and pallets around. Added to the fact that most people that come don't buy the large, expensive items, so I'm left with them to lug in and out. I don't want to give the stuff away - it must have some value. I could use the money! What is the best way for me to proceed?

Mam would have been baking all day, making all the food for the next week and my sister and I would have been helping her by the time everything was bagged, in the freezer/tupperwares and the kitchen cleaned it would be about four o clock.

Tea was an hour or two later and was a Do It Yourself Kit. Basically, you went into the kitchen and helped yourself to whatever you fancied, usually, sandwiches, cakes, scones, rock cakes, biscuits ... basically we ate what we'd just cooked then we'd sit down and watch the footie scores come in.

We bairns would sit quietly and let Dad check off the pools coupon because we knew that Seaside Special, Doctor Who and for Mam, The Generation Game was coming up afterwards.



Ahhh, happy days.

How long did it take you to reach the conclusion that atheism was the right choice for you? Given that the World is inundated with propaganda that is pro religion and often we are taught/indoctrinated with R.E. in school, by parents and society in general etc. It is a decision that is often not made lightly, how much research into the bible and soul searching did you do?

How does a person or a party pay for the law suit when they are found guilty of a crime if the amount of money is something they do not have? For example, the Roman Catholic Church of Los Angeles may be paying over $600 million dollars to people who are effected by the sexual abuse scandel. How would the church pay that much money??? Or anyone???
