Approximate value was $20000. It is now worth approximatly $70,000. I did not contribute to this fund while we were married because my spouse did not help me pay ANY bills. After 17 years of marriage we are divorcing. She claims the IRA is marital property and wants half. I say it was and is separate property.

Success with economy? It's the economy stupid!
Success with Katrina? Not according to most observers and accounting facts or the former director of FEMA. Success with the Iraqi debacle? Not to the vast majority of Americans and people around the world. Success in needed public relations needed to provide some degree of comfort to all Americans? Don't think so. Etc. etc etc.

I have noticed that through out the world, there is a new philosophy that rules.
It is a philospophy that we should do everything as wrong as we can and that punishing those who desirve it should mean being punished back!
It is like me slapping you, and you tell the police, and I slap you for telling the police. I justify that it is only fiar because you counter attacked me, so I should *counter* attack you back.
It is just like going to the lavatory and having a crap and you flush it, to find that the lavatory spits the crap back into your asse again.
What philosophy is this and how should I respond to it, noting that the more that I do to reach a state of balance, the more imbalanced it gets?

Since the war started against the so called terrorists George Bush and his army have killed more than five thousand innocent civillians across the middle East. I wonder who can bring justice in this case???

Were you a US permanent resident and then moved back to your home country after several years?
What was your experience. Was it emotionally difficult to give it up?

Janklow was the governor of South Dakota. In 1955, at the age of 16, he was convicted of the sexual assault of a 17-year old woman. As a juvenile offense, this conviction carried little weight under U.S. law.
However, in 1966, while working as the tribal attorney for the Rosebud Sioux, Janklow--aged 27--was accused of raping his children's 15-year-old babysitter, Jancita Eagle Deer. Adult sexual offenses being more grave than this earlier recorded exploit, Janklow used his capacity as head of reservation legal services to stave off the (illegible) of formal, federal charges. He then resigned his position and left tribal jurisdiction.
Between rape and manslaughter.. this guys is a thug! And he ONLY had to serve three years....now he emerges from prison with a "clean record" and his law license!
PATHETIC!

I was in there for 6 months and had to sleep on a mat on the floor in the cell for a while instead of getting a bed, got out of date food sometimes, didn't get out of the cell some days etc.
They say there are certain things you can't do for health and safety - like smoking - but some of the things like not having a proper bed and bad food aren't good for health and safety either.
When you are in there you can't really complain as you don't want to be seen to be causing trouble but is their certain things that you are entitled to and can you do anything about it after you've been there?

that is provided to me by the troops fighting on the ground in Iraq.
Ironic isnt it?
Well it would be, if I truly believed that the Iraqis were a threat to the US both before and after 9/11 (not that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11 but try convincing an american that).
Still I guess Iraq who maybe had WMD's was always a greater threat than North Korea who have proven they have WMD's.
Still if youre the schoolground bully, you hardly want to be taking on the biggest kid in the class, when there is the weedy little guy in the corner who called your Dad names you can pick on (lovely little anology for George Bush, Bush Snr and Hussain there)

Muslim Pc refused to shake hands
Sir Ian Blair questioned the validity of the refusal
A Muslim woman police officer refused to shake hands with the head of the Metropolitan Police on faith grounds.
If she has to arrest a criminal and put handcuffs on them she will not be able to as she refuses to touch a man's hands. Is this farcical as she will not be able to carry out her duties properly

There's good news for you. Bill Richardson, governor of New Mexico, has decided to get into the race for President. He has some pretty common-sense approaches to issues, he's diplomatic, and could probably achieve consensus better than any other dem candidate. In fact, he's the only Democrat I could vote for and NOT feel like I had to throw up afterward. So the question is - do you want that sort of candidate, and could you get behind him in lieu of Hillary and Obama?

Sexual harassment at work has now affected my shift patterns.
I have recently reported incidences of the above from a male colleague at my part time job. This has now been dealt with in an informal way, as I wished. Subsequently, my boss offered my shifts in my hearing to another (male) member of staff, reducing my hours. I believe that this is linked to the complaint I made. What do I do? I don't know who to ask for advice. Thanks.
