With lucky rabbit feet? So, why do we not all have lucky rabbit feet with us all the time? Would it not be safer to have a rabbits foot with you all the time just to be safe?

She wants to do anything except babysitting. Her mother doesn't believe that any child should have to watch a baby. The only thing is what will she do. Her mom says that she and her husband wil buy the mp3 player and camera as a reward for being so responsible but she wants to work for her laptop. She's been saving allowance and has gotten half way to the laptop but she needs another job. What can she do!

As a photographer, a lot of work goes into photo shoots, post processing, etc. When you've shot promos for a band, and they use them online but don't give any credit, what can you do? Several notices have been given to give credit, but nothings been done. A mistake made was not putting anything about giving credit in the contract they signed. So a cease and desist letter can't really be sent, but really, what do you do?

First of all, let me say that I am not Pastor, Prophet, or Priest, but I do believe that the church right now is under a spiritual attack. I have been looking at the situations that have been coming up in the recent week and I am ashamed of what we as believers have allowed to happen. I'm not perfect, but I think that as the Body of Christ we need to come together and fast and pray. I don't care what denomination you are or what your religious background is. I'm just asking if we can just come together and agree on this one thing. If you don't believe in God or if what I have written is not for you it is not for you to respond or take offense. If you would just agree with me I would appreciate it and I'm sure God would too. One body, one mind, one spirit. Father, son, and holy ghost.

I was wondering what all fruits have in common. Every time I eat fruits like bananas, strawberries, avocados, etc, my lips and/or throat itch. I think I have food allergies, but I'm not quite sure. Sometimes when I eat tofu the same thing happens too, and soy. I REALLY love the taste of fruits, but I can't eat them, and that's a big let down. I was just wondering what ingredients in the fruits makes my lips/throat itch. Thanks for your time, I appreciate it.

'Guest worker' plan assailed
Ritter gives it right back to GOP critics of union stance
Help wanted in Colorado — from Mexico
Idea sounds 'real good' to Brighton farm family
By April M. Washington, Rocky Mountain News
August 25, 2007
Republican lawmakers Friday assailed a bipartisan proposal to open a recruitment office in Mexico to attract seasonal workers, saying it risks making Colorado a magnet for illegal immigrants.
"This is sending the wrong message," said Republican Sen. Greg Brophy, a farmer from the Eastern Plains. "We need to be more creative than just opening up a state-sponsored employment office in Juarez. That's throwing in the towel and saying, 'Come on in.' "

Rep. Marsha Looper, R-Calhan, and Sen. Abel Tapia, D-Pueblo, are floating a plan to recruit seasonal legal workers in Mexico to help Colorado farmers who are struggling to find help to bring in crops. The legislators initially called it a "guest worker" program, but only the federal government can grant visas to foreign workers. The proposal is intended only to help expedite existing visa programs, not create a new one, as some critics have said.

The plan is preliminary, and talks just have gotten under way about introducing legislation in January.

Senate Republicans called the proposal an attempt by Democrats to backslide from recent legislative efforts to stem the flow of illegal immigrants.

"Unless the state is prepared to spend tens of millions of dollars to keep tabs on guest workers to make sure they don't overstay their visas, then this is a bad idea," said Sen. Josh Penry, R-Fruita.

In truth, the proposal came from a Republican.

Looper, a GOP House freshman, approached Tapia about co-sponsoring a bill.

Looper could not be reached for comment Friday, but said earlier she urged her GOP colleagues to put aside partisan politics and do what's best for Colorado's agricultural market.

Looper has been pressured this week by fellow Republicans to back away from the proposal.

Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, credited Looper for thinking outside the box, but argues that state-sponsored recruitment of migrant workers only would foster illegal immigration and further weaken attempts to secure the nation's southern border.

"This goes a step too far," he said. "Sometimes you got to beat people back into the box. She has some high hurdles to get through before she gets to the border."

Tapia defended the measure Friday as a creative and sound idea. He said neither he nor Looper is trying to lure undocumented workers or create a pathway to citizenship.

Tapia and Looper have said that the state's crackdown on illegal immigration has caused migrant workers to bypass Colorado, leaving farmers short-handed.

"We only want to expedite the current system," Tapia said.

Looper and Tapia are hoping an office in Mexico can help Colorado farmers draw migrant workers through an existing federal visa program called "H-2A."

That program has no cap on visa numbers, as some other visas do. However, employers must first find the specific foreign employees they want to hire, then have them approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.

The state of Colorado and employers also would have to provide housing and transportation for migrant workers.

I am a member of the US Coast Guard, in which part of my job basically requires me to learn spanish. I have a pretty good grasp of the spanish language so i don't really have a tough time speaking with the illegal immigrants we catch. I am also fluent in french because my mom was from France (besancon). So whenever i go back to europe to visit my relatives it seems that everyone is more sophisticated and speaks more than 1 language, escecially english. My question is, Why do most americans speak only english? How come we are not like the rest of the world and speak more than only our first language. I am an American, I was born here and didnt find it very difficult to learn and speak 2 other languages. If we could just get off the couch and be a little bit more enthusiastic we could all easily speak more than 1 language. This is pretty sad and pathetic, can someone please explain this to me?
