I have athma and suffer from fatiuge. There is a product that the convenience stores around me sell that helps calm my athma and helps ward off my fatiuge. The product contains ephidrine(a bronchial dialator) and Guaffenasine(an expectorant). Today when I whent to buy it the cashier informed me of a new law which says that to buy the product I had to present to my drivers license which she took and wrote its information in a book. I asked why and she said it is a form of control.(What does that mean?). Governmental control? The information she wrote in the book - how is that going to be used? Who gets it and why? Do "They" think they are going find me and kick my *** because I use the product? (I hope they try!) or to count me as a criminal? If a criminal, who did I commit the crime against? And if it is a crime to use the product, why are they letting it be sold OTC? Are they just after me or are there others they are after? I hope it is only me! Signed: You know who...Me! hehehe.

I went to the smoking gun website and was wondering how they get all those mug shot photos?

Is there an easy way to look up people by name and find their mug shots??

Lets say that within 5 years, Israel could be the 51st state of the Union. Would you vote for this, or sign a petition in favor of this idea today? Keep in mind that this would then be part of your country, and you'd be free to travel there, just as you can travel to Hawaii now. Thank-you.

The car ruined that part of my garden, ran over antique metal pail that was my grandpa's, rusted out nails and boards sticking up all over the place for someone inc. me to step on. I need surgery on my neck and am extremely limited to anything anymore. Family knows about it and I'm sure seen damages. Family was notified at time of accident. 911 was called as well. It's been 1.5 weeks. A couple people came out and took pictures of the dent on the house, but nothing regarding cleanup. There are heavy logs and marble stepping stones to move back, etc. I'm restricted to lifting only 2.3 lbs. per my doctor. What should I do? I asked twice about it already. Should I withhold rent, etc.? Help! It's a mess. Who cleans and can I get reimbursed for my plants and garden ornaments, etc?

How many C.R.A.P.ers have heard about the reason we wnt to Iraq was to save the value of the dollar?
Saddam was going to start only taking the Euro as payment instead of the Dollar. Thats why we went to war.
The more I read about it the mopre it makes sense.
If we had made the case to go to war to save the dollar the American public of course wouldnt have went for it. The operfect time came when the **** bag government heard about a plan to fly planes into the towers. We let it happen. helped it with some demo charges and galvanized the public worked them into a pro war hysteria.

Mission Accomplished Mr. ShitBag George!!!!

I have never been to jury duty before, and now have been chosen to be apart of a jury. The case is not extremely serious, but again, I am only 21. So, my question is what should I wear? Most of my clothes consists of jeans and causal shirts. Is that alright? Should I wear a suit, or at least slacks and a tie? I mean, I do not want to be the only juror there who looks like he is on his way to a frat party while all of the other (and older) people are dressed more professional, serious, and appropriate than I am.

To my understanding, you gat paid $5 for jury duty for a half day of service and $10 for a full day. Well, in a average person’s salary (even with minimum wage) you make a lot more than this, right? Therefore, why do they pay you so little? Also, where did this come from or who made this up? I am new to this and have never been yet, but am just curious.

Can a domestic violence misdemeanor charge ruin a career?
I have a friend whose husband is likely going plead guilty to a domestic violence charge as a misdemeanor and obstructing official business (another misdemeanor).

Her husband holds a prominent job with a large organization.

Will the charge effect his work or future work opportunities.

He is definitely guilty. They have loads of pictures from the domestic violence program, the police etc. He hasn’t ever done this before, but he did beat her really bad.

She just wondered because they have kids together and she is a stay-at-home mom.

This is in Ohio.

I would really appreciate links to forward to her with information. Thanks.

How do I scroll to another page to see additional feedback.

Update: My friend, through her church, therapy and her own beliefs would like her family to be healed and remain together. Her husband is ignoring her and is supposed to be filing for a divorce and won't talk to her. She extended anolive branch and he basicallyemotionally beat her with it. His family supports him, she has no family, just us friends.

She is a mess emotionally..devastated!

IShe is in counseling and so are the kids and then someone called social services and they came to see her.

They went from being a niddle class family to poverty-stricken. It is terrible.

His pre-trial is Monday and she is trying to write her victim impact statement. She knows he will serve her with divorce papers right after that.

He's being nasty now and she has the opportunity to get the prosecutor to put him in jail, and yet she doesn;t want to hurt him.

I think she was right to cooperate with prosecutors, get a CPO, deny visitiation now, insist on bills being paid, etc. But he is mad at her and blames it all on her.

She is a stay at home mom with kids and they went from middle class to having nothing because he is ignoring the CPO and there is no money for her to get gifts for the kids or anything. Friends are bringing them food and the church brought some gifts. Her boys are 4 and 12..I think, maybe 5 and 11. I don;t remember.
