To make a long story short. I was convicted of a property crime (theft) from an incident in 2004 and was released on parole in 2006. An old business partner filed a complaint with the police department alleging I stole money from her. The thing is I was a joint owner in the business and we litigated this previously in civil court and I won. I believe the only reason this happened now is that she is trying to get me in trouble to get me sent back to prison. I admit what I did wrong and am trying to just work and take care of my wife and 6 year old daughter. Even though I know this is all bogus should I be scared? I am just looking for some sort of precedence in this matter or advice. (after reviewing state law the statue of limitation is even expired on the charge). Any helps or comments would be great.

Do I also have to be a paramedic? If I was only a fireman, what would my duty be with car accidents? Would I have to take the bodies out or do the paramedics do that?

The fact remains that China is an authoritarian country with seviourly restricted freedom of speech and press. No matter how rich you become humanity flourishes only in freedom. Even if there is masiive dissent within like Tianamen square the official line would only be communist propoganda that everything if fine and we are a great civilization etc. Will China collapse as did USSR did with this strange Capitalist Socialist model?

WASHINGTON -- President Bush tried and failed to fix Social Security's long-term finances with his own party in control of Congress. His determination to keep trying, even as Democrats take over, is fueling speculation that he is ready to meet their price for coming to the bargaining table: dropping his goal of letting workers create private retirement accounts.

While Democrats don't take over the House and Senate until January, already some in both parties are reading tea leaves for signs of administration flexibility, including in recent remarks by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten.

For Mr. Bush, private accounts are a way of reducing Social Security's future obligations, and central to his concept of an "ownership society" in which Americans rely less on government.

Democrats, along with the seniors group AARP, oppose personal accounts because they would initially require heavy government borrowing, and could leave future retirees at risk of market downturns.

I have read in several places that it is legal for a single, young female to drive to a public place when a cop is trying to pull her over. However, I have watched COPS, and how do I let them know that I am doing that? I don't want to be shot at or anything. I have never been pulled over, but I was just wondering. Please answer this if you really know, and can back it up. I don't want people that are just assuming. No offense, but I don't want any jokes about this. :)
