I have a package to send to the armed forces in Iraq, but the weight of it will cost me a fortune at USPS, or UPS or Fedex. Do you know of any organizations that will ship packages of this nature for you. I have heard that there are some, or even the military will do it, but I need to know who I need to contact regarding it. Thanks for your help

My fiance is in marine boot camp right now and he wrote in a letter that they were told they are able to quit after Phase 1. I was told by someone else, however, that the drill instructor's just tell them this to give them a sooner date to focus on. Do any marines or ex-marines or anyone for that matter know if this is true or not? If it's not, how come there are so many recruits that don't end up graduating? Any help is greatly appreciated...thanks a lot!

I got my denial of citizenship today because I failed to sign up for selective service between 18-26. I am 30 now. I came into this country with my mother at the age of 13. I am a legal citizen and I pretty much have all the rights as americans except I can't vote. I had no one to inform me or guide me as far as sign up for this and now I am denied citizenship because of it. I have a disability and I am collecting social security, should they have informed me of this or while I was in school, should they have informed me or what is the chain of command? They say they sent letters to my home and I failed to reply. I was living @ the same address until 2 yrs ago. I have registered cars, if they really needed to track me down, why werent't they able too? I just don't know what to do from here and what actions I should take, if anyone has ANY advice please help

I signed a contact but upon signing I now know that the person I sign this with the purchased did not belong to him until about 30 to 45 days after I signed this. Now he is saying I breached the contract how can that be when or if it was valid. do I have grounds for legal action.

for example there is hardly any chance that a russian jetfighter can ever shoot down any of usa's best jetfighters in a dogfight, the su-27 and su-35 russian jetfighters have very obselete avionics and weapons

.a single abrams tank can take out at least 10 russian t-80 or t-90 tanks in less than a minute without hardly any threat of the abrams tank ever getting hit,russian submarines like typhoon,delta borey oscar and akula class submarines have very obselete technologies,are very noisy and have obselete weapons

.the highly touted shkval torpedo is nothing more than old technology that is irrelevent since shkval has such a short range and american subs can easily detect and destroy any russian sub way before the shkval torpedo is in any range to fire.

russian nukes are way behind in technology compared to usa,for example russia's latest nuclear weapon the ss-27 topol m is actually about 20 years behind in technology compared to usa's best nuke

"The nation's favourite" they call themselves, but with every gratuitous rise in the License Fee they are becoming more and more disliked, even hated. If they are as popular with the British public as they say they are, then let's see. I call on Culture Minister, Tessa Jowell, to give the go ahead for a national debate and fee-payers vote. Let the minister and the BBC put up, or BACK DOWN.

I went on vacation to Mexico with my parents in November. We went to the Mayan Rivera near Cancun, and it wasn't poor and dirty like some people say. When my parents said we where going to Mexico, I was like OMG wtf are you crazy? But the hotel was actually really nice, and it was like 5 star, and it had fancy restaurants, and a huge pool and beautiful clean beach and tennis courts and stuff like that. And across the street from our resort hotel, there was big mansion neighborhoods with giant gates at the front with like guards and stuff. There was even like a little mall near us, and it had a Starbucks, McDonald's and lot's of designer stores.

I don't get why everyone says Mexico is so bad? It's actually very nice, and the people seem rich not poor.

have to look no farther than a mirror to see one

like Al Sharpton and
pro-illegals,,,,,,,please explain how pro-illegal is a logical stance if you are not racist yourself against white Americans

do tou think those people have a hatred fore white people,,,nahh couldn't be

why don't they fight for the plight of all immigrants not just latinos

this BS has got to be called out Don't you think that someone should be damn sure someone else is a racist before they accuse them of it, That term holds a lot of volume and shouldn't be abused

any thoughts on this

I've been doing a little online research, but it's still a bit fuzzy. If an employer will not pay overtime to non-exempt, non-government employees (time and a half over 40 hours worked in a week), but offers compensatory time instead, shouldn't that time be given at time and a half, as well?

What about so-called "non-profit" employers, like churches?

Is "comp" time even legal?
