My grandmother did not speak any english. Growing up we called her memere, the french equivalent to grandma. But I don't remember the proper spelling. I think there is an accent mark on the second 'e' but not sure. Can anyone help? Thank you so much.

If both parties have bank accounts, mutual funds, annuities, stocks and other investment accounts, how do the courts divide them 50-50%?
1. Each account is split 50-50% ? Or they add up the cash accounts and divide by two ?
2. Do the courts write a letter to the financial institutions and ask them to send half the amount to the other party, or to the court ?
3. Fifty percent split is effective on the day of the court order, the day the judge signed the papers of the day the finacial institutions receive the papers ?
4. Are the stocks sold or just divided ?
5. etc. etc.
Answer only if you have first hand knowledge, (or you know a website where I can check) please ! Thanks

I think that most Catholics would agree that Purgatory is more of a hospital than a jail.
Cleansing or sanctification is a gradual process and we must endure to the end to be saved.
(Mat 10:22 DRB) And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved.
(Mat 24:13 DRB) But he that shall persevere to the end, he shall be saved.
(Mar 13:13 DRB) And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake. But he that shall endure unto the end, he shall be saved.
Catholic soteriology recognizes that for some of us the process was not completed at death or that we died with unrepentant sin.
(Heb 9:27 DRB) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the judgment:
The judgment is our eternal destiny and for those whose name is in the Lamb’s Book of Life, heaven is assured. But we know that one must be free of sin to be in God’s presence.
(1Ti 6:14 DRB) That thou keep the commandment without spot, blameless, unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
It may be that one is not prepared to be in our Lord’s presence as we may still be with spiritual shortcomings or temporal effects of forgiven sins on our soul making it necessary for some form of purification to enter heaven in God’s presence. Since this is a process of purgation it is called purgatory and it is in keeping with prophecy of the prophet Habakkuk who said that only that which is holy may enter heaven.
(Hab 1:13 DRB) Thy eyes are too pure to behold evil, and thou canst not look on iniquity. Why lookest thou upon them that do unjust things, and holdest thy peace when the wicked devoureth the man that is more just than himself?
St. Paul also taught of a process of purgation which may involve suffering on the soul of Christians and in his first letter to the Corinthian Church he describes the process of purgation after death.
(1Co 3:10 DRB) According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation: and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
(1Co 3:11 DRB) For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid: which is Christ Jesus.
(1Co 3:12 DRB) Now, if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:
(1Co 3:13 DRB) Every man's work shall be manifest. For the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire. And the fire shall try every man's work, of what sort it is.
(1Co 3:14 DRB) If any man's work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
(1Co 3:15 DRB) If any mans work burn, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.
St. Paul speaks metaphorically that the results of sin that remain on one’s soul is like “wood, hay and straw” and are burned away in the process of final purification to be received in the presence of the Lord. St. Paul also speaks of one’s works as “gold, silver and precious stones” which are refined and retained.
This passage reminds me of what Christ said in the following indicating that some sins may be forgiven after death.
(Mat 12:32 DRB) And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him neither in this world, nor in the world to come.
Purgatory is also related to the parable of the unforgiving servant which is as follows…
(Mat 18:32 DRB) Then his lord called him: and said to him: Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all the debt, because thou besoughtest me:
(Mat 18:33 DRB) Shouldst not thou then have had compassion also on thy fellow servant, even as I had compassion on thee?
(Mat 18:34 DRB) And his lord being angry, delivered him to the torturers until he paid all the debt.
After telling the parable Christ emphasizes His message lest it be misunderstood with this warning……..
(Mat 18:35 DRB) So also shall my heavenly Father do to you, if you forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.
Christ was warning us of the danger of a hard heart or anger making us unwilling to forgive others. We should acknowledge that these are the signs and example of a defective soul in need of purgation so that he that is imperfect may be in the presence of God and dwell in glory. (See CCC 1030-1032)
In Christ
Fr. Joseph

I am in college and I'm thinking about dropping out in order to work full-time. I am going to do this next year when I have $60,000 saved up. I figure that will be enough to get me started and I should be able to survive the rest of my life if I continue to work and maybe invest that money somehow. I always hear people say "Stay in school" but I think I'd learn more if I dropped out and worked. Am I making a bad decision or do you think it sounds good? I want to get married at that time, too.. so I figure that if I work full-time and let my wife go to school and do whateevr, not only will she be happy but we'll be able to save money too.

A quarterback claims that he can throw the football a horizontal distance of 176 m. Furthermore, he claims that he can do this by launching the ball at the relatively low angle of 25.4 ° above the horizontal. To evaluate this claim, determine the speed with which this quarterback must throw the ball. Assume that the ball is launched and caught at the same vertical level and that air resistance can be ignored. For comparison a baseball pitcher who can accurately throw a fastball at 45 m/s (100 mph) would be considered exceptional.

I had a root canal Wed. and afterward they didn't prescribe me any pain med. and I always usually get it. this place said we dont do that. I was like hmm ok. and they said ibuprofen would help and it doesnt they specifically said do not call us bc we wont prescribe it. I asked my doctor to then, my family physician and she said the dentist has to. Anyways also, they said they thought I might've had an infection and said they'd preform anyway, can they do that? Usually I thought they give an antibiotic before and schedule again?? Please tell me if they were allowed anything they did. and where I can turn for pain med.? Besides another dentist, we can only go to that one.

Close your eyes for a moment, take a deep breath, and forget everything anyone told you about what you "want" in a male partner. Too often we recite "society's" advice of what the norm is, and how we should act.
Close your eyes again and think 1 more time:
What would he look like, act like, how would he treat you, would be be rich, poor, good looking, and finally, what role would you want to play in the relationship.
look deep inside.

Here is the story. I was driving with a friend who had been busted a few months earlier for drug possesion. Before that and especially after, the officer stopped my friend every time he saw him, no matter what. Only found anything that one time. So, he sees us and asks what we are doing. We tell him and he lets us on our way. 1 block later, he pulls us over,doesn't tell me why, searches us and the car (w/o asking) and puts us in the backof his car. he finds nothing. I have no record and have never been arrested. For some reason he kept saying I had been mulitple times, but it is not true. However, my friend was on probation. is that probable cause to search MY car and ME? Also, the same officer has pulled me over several times since then. If he sees my car, he stops me and searches me. The last time he asked. He has never found anything illegal and says he pulled me over for something like signaling late before a turn. Is this cop doing this stuff legally by the book?
