I am 6 months pregnant, and work at a department store, With the pregnancy, I had to change from back dock work to registers. My feet are now dreadfully swollen and sore, but they wont let me have a stool, but wont give me a reason. Also I need to go to the toilet probably every 2-3 hours (baby bladder) and my boss told me that coz i was working a 5 hour shift I didnt get a break, I told her I really needed to go, and she got really mad at me. Is there anything wrong with this?

...perhaps this is why prostitution in the UK is looked down upon - what about lasses who walk the streets to pay bills, or even dress their wee bairns for school. High class lasses, huh...what do they do it for? Certainly not for a line of cocaine. What we all should do ignore the populist press for once in a while...but being Britain, it seems to be a case of 'no can do' - why are we eager to twin drugs and prostitution when (like with most things...even immigration) there are parts of the question which we tend to ignore, staying with the usual cliches bestowed upon us by the red-tops?

Some people that say that "The South will rise again!" Would any of you really WANT that? Maybe if the Rebs had first freed the slaves and then fired on Ft. Sumpter Europe might have interviened. Would you WANT that? Good example of the feds using their power over states in recent years is the 55 mph speed limit. It went on for years until CA stopped writing tickets. The feds threatened to cut off highway funds. CA threatened to stop collecting federal income tax from their citizen's paychecks. Then things got REAL quiet for a while. In less than a year the "double nickle" was gone. And THIS, my friends, is what the war was all about. States' rights. We were drawn closer together, yet we saw what war with ourselves can do. Settling the 55 by offering to cut off funds from the world's seventh largest econony was a mature stroke of genius. Much better outcome than trying to attack Washington. What were they thinking? Racisim aside, I think the Southerners would have had LESS freedom.

My statement:
Now that most "point the finger on GW and the rest of the Admin., I like to post the following statement, I found from my research as to "who" really "pushed" along....so that we may enjoy the "internal" and "international" unrest against the USA.



If The Bush Administration Lied About WMD, So Did These People
by John Hawkins:



"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." -- From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998




Note: If you need to see more statements as the one above; ask, and I will post many more

I had recently recieved a speeding ticket for doing 67 in a posted 55 on a four lane state highway, here is the catch though one direction is 65 and the other is 55. I have driven this stretch of state highway now for years and i know that not everyone does the 55 on the one side because when i do i get passed like i am standing still. So this is my question for anyone that could help, is there not some sort of law about having two different posted speed limits on the same stretch of highway?

1. Who would you most like to become President?
2. Who would you least like to become President?

No bashing, just give the names, and perhaps civilly and politely explain why.

For myself:
1. Hmmmm... I guess maybe Condi. If Democrats didn't already have Congress, I might actually vote for Obama, though I'm a staunch conservative in things like values. The Republicans need to come up with some more compelling candidates.

2. Sorry, but this is definitely Hillary. No offense to anyone, I just do not agree with any of her values or ideas.

why do they always go back to "Freedom isn't Free"...
If That's true why isn't it free...why should soldiers have to die to protect our laws we already have in place...i thought the Constitution granted us those freedoms...Why is it that if I disagree or dissent on Military tactics i'm called names like surrender monkey or terrorist-luver,etc???

I requested a modification of existing child support order.I live in california.On the notice of motion, the Petitioner/Plaintiff is the county where my ex resides.I am listed under the Respondent/Defendant, and my ex is listed under "other parent." First of all, isn't my ex supposed to be the petitioner?An already completed "request for order and supporting declaration" and "response to governmental notice of motion or order to show cause" forms were attached and I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with these forms.Can someone please share with me step by step instructions regarding what I must do? On the order to show cause form, I believe I'm supposed to respond to the requests the court made in the other form I stated, so if the courts made no requests in orders for the parentage, health insurance, fees, property restraint, do I put that "I do consent to the order requested" or would I leave the box unchecked?They are forms FL-685 & FL 684.I have a hearing date already. PlsHelp
