I consider this nation to be barbaric, and it is, since we allow their people all over the world to enjoy religious freedoms which they do not allow. Why do we even consider them as friends, when they are our worse enemies?

After the generation of people who grew up in the '70s and later starts coming into power ... do you think we'll see a serious de-escalation of the war on drugs? I'm not a stoner myself but I like to know I can have a toke if I want one, and as a taxpayer and a human being I hate to see so much money, manpower, and jail time being spent on a substance that is non-addictive and no more harmful that the legal-but-sensibly-regulated alcohol & cigarettes.

Hey all.
I know I should probably be asking this to a lawyer, and will, I just wanted to get some opinion to explore the ideas other may have.

I purchased an RV on eBay and found that after I purchased the vehicle it was NOT as described.

I received 90% of the money paid to the seller back from my credit card (still waiting on 1 more dispute for the deposit). I am just trying to figure out what to do next.

What am I to do with this vehicle? I'm not about to pump the money in gas into abandoning this vehicle in his front yard. He's ignoring all calls and emails. Technically the vehicle is in my possession and registered to me BUT, because the charges were denied and his account is now negative, in his eyes I still owe the money? So if I were to just sell it and reclaim my lost money, then he could come after me later for the money that was denied to him?

I don't know if theres a process I do (like serve him a letter to pick this up and after xx days its abandoned & I could sell it)

Im in Michigan and my city wants to tear down the old airport terminal which is a nice building and built nearly 100 yrs ago,

it also happens to be a hangar for me and a few other local pilots,
"they are ripping it down to force us into higher priced hangars"
It is on our main street and should be preserved as a historical marker for the city, even if we have to move our planes.
there is no local historical society, anyone know where to start?

"This is the question Sen. Hillary Clinton's camp is asking about Sen. Barack Obama." ( www.insightmag.com, 1/17/2007).

"An investigation of Mr. Obama by political opponents within the Democratic Party has discovered that Mr. Obama was raised as a Muslim by his stepfather in Indonesia. Sources close to the background check, which has not yet been released, said Mr. Obama, 45, spent at least four years in a so-called Madrassa, or Muslim seminary, in Indonesia."

"He was a Muslim, but he concealed it," the source said. "His opponents within the Democrats hope this will become a major issue in the campaign."

CFP finds it noteworthy that when contacted by Insight, Mr. Obama's press secretary said he would consult with his boss and call back, but did no

I have been living in my apartment complex for a year and a half now. Up until now it has been a very quiet area. I'm not sure who has moved in but these individuals are loud. I have called the non emergency police line twice, and have reported this problem to the leasing office. However, the noise still goes on. These individuals believe it is ok to blast their music until 9-10pm at night any day of the week! Help is there anyway I can get out of my lease without having to pay the fine for breaking the contract?
