I have asked this question before, but now there are different circumstances attached. My husband and I gained custody of his 3 children over a year ago. Due to the mother being involved with an individual who was arrested before for child abuse and domestic violence among other things. After custody was switched she filed an appeal due to this man not being a material change of circumstance to have changed custody. The application for appeal was denied. She is still in the relationship but trying to keep it quiet. Now, my husband recently got orders to Japan, which she can take us back to court again for change of custody. This is taking place in GA and we live in FL, so the children are not even in her state, and visitation is 2 times a month, some which she never takes. Unfortunately, in Ga the custodial parent does not retain the right to automatically retain custody, even though my husband is the sole custodian, she only has visitation. Advice PLS!

OK I have seen the Diesel price question get answers like supply and demand, etc. My question is: Is there a governmental strategic move to making diesel more expensive? Diesel prices have been lower than unleaded gas for many years and now it’s much more expensive than premium unleaded. I understand a few cents here and there, but I just saw it yesterday at a Raceway gas station at 20 cents more than premium. I know, another conspiracy theory, but hay I have to ask.

I started a job as an Admin Assistant with no background checks, aside from calling my ref. Now, they have a new customer that wants to require background checks (criminal, DMV & CREDIT) on all employees that will be working with their information. I just want to know if it is legal for them to require a background check after I have been hired. THANKS!!

Both republicans and democrats have chosen animal symbols that make no sense! A donkey? is not the burro considerd dumb? An elephant is not this elephant from somewhere else? Why not a symbol from the Americas? A bird? A fish? A symbol from the new world! Even a feather of an eagle is better. A racoon is most precious. A mannatee? A falcon? Is time to change the symbols.

One eighth of US residents are now living below the poverty line, which is defined as $19,157 annual income for a family of four. I don't know what the figures are for < $25,000 income but I'm guessing around 20%. The conservative stance on issues that affect this are as follows;

No increase in the minimum wage.
Tighten welfare benefits requirements.
Less gradation in tax brackets based on income.

Am I forgetting any? Given the above, what is the conservative plan for reducing poverty in the US? Or is this simply not a conservative priority?

My situation deals with an estate, which belonged to my father, who died January 2002. My father died without a will, he was not married, and I am his only child. At the time of his death, I was fourteen years of age, and my grandmother was beneficiary over his insurance policy, so she, with the help of my aunt, dealt with his estate, being that I was too young to handle that type of business. Recently I have come to know that when my grandmother and my aunt went to the courthouse, in 2002, to deal with my father’s estate, they lied and told the court that my father did not have a child so my grandmother received his whole estate. If I am not mistaking, I am supposed to receive everything because I am the closest relative. After he died, I was acknowledged in the obituary as his child, and I received social security benefits. Now that I am nineteen years old, and my grandmother is now deceased, my aunt has everything my father owned in her name, including houses, cars, money, etc. ...

last term, i was in my american lit class and my professor asked us, what would more likely happen first, a black president of the united states, or a middle easterner president of the united states. i guessed black, because most people would not vote for a middle easterner president due to the linkage to ideas of terrorism. my professor said, its more likely for a middle easterner to become president because white america hates black america that much. it didnt make sense to me back then, and it still doesnt, so i want to ask all of you, who would you more likely vote on just by what they are, not by who they are, a black president or a middle eastern descent president? please tell me why. No jokes please, thank you!!!

I'm beggining to think that the age of electronic communication is simply enabling more and more division amongst common folk in our society. It seems like all of this increased ability to communicate would increase our understanding of each other, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Instead we anonymously hide behind avatars and throw barbs at people who think differently than us.

Western democracy is still driven by the populace, and the populace is more split than I can ever remember. I can't help that the internet is only helping to enlarge this gulf and not to reduce it. Will this only continue to get worse as we become more and more competent with computers, as electornic commmunication allows us to become more specialised and insular?

That would be like blaming Andrew Jackson for the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Because everyone knows that the Japanese weren't sneaking around and blowing things up until Hoover was president.

And besides, no one even knew about bin Laden in 1999. Maybe, like, three people. It's possible that he didn't even exist until Bush made him mad about the stolen election.

Remember, 9/11 happened when Bush was president. That was eight months into his presidency, and by then he'd already had his cabinet assembled for something like two months. But that's only because the election was stolen and Gore made a valient effort to stop him.
