I've never gotten around using these since I got out of the military and got a decent job with the local phone company. But now I've been thinking of returning to college. Is there a time limit on when I have to use my GI Bill and the Navy College Fund or are those the same thing?

Universal National Service Act
http://www.congress.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c108:S.89:

"To provide for the common defense by requiring that all young persons in the United States, including women, perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes."

Former Secretary of Defense William Cohen
"I think there should be a commitment to universal service. I think that only a few people are really committed to this war against terrorism and called. I think the American people have to be - understand - that we're all in this together. We ought to have a real call to national service to commit ourselves to some form of public service,"

Hello, just got a ticket on the way home from work, late at night. Policeman was sitting with no lights in someones driveway and shot me with radar BEFORE I entered a 45 speed zone from a 55 speed zone. I was doing 60 prior to entering, his lights turned on just as a entered the 45 zone. I was nice with the officier who still decided to give me a ticket. Should I fight it?

Not possessing the wisdom that my Dad says comes with age, can anyone tell me why President Bush and Prime Minister Blair who started the thing, can walk away from the Iraq tragedy, off the hook because their term of office is up and pursue a lucrative second career on the lecture circuit without a blush?

Five months ago I got pulled over for an out headlight.
The address on my insurance was different from my driver's license. They said that I was required to change my address. They had me sign some paper that said, something, i don't remember what. Then they started asking me if I had any drugs in the car, and one of them started looking all around it. Then they asked if they could search. I refused, and they said to go sit down. A few minutes later they handed me a what looked like a ticket, and said I could go. When I looked at the paper every field was blank. I didn't know if what it was I tried to ask the officers, but they were driving away.

I just moved, and that paper did not come with. It's been five months. Today I went to get the mail and found a letter from the city. I thought it was jury duty, but when I opened it the city says I have two warrants for my arrest, and I owe them almost $500.

If the paper was blank what was I supposed to do? What do I do now?

What area(s) of practice would these fall under if I am looking for an attorney or firm to go after someone? If this is all under "white collar crimes", why in the world does it seem so hard to find an attorney that covers this area of things, let alone specializes in it?

For example: it a company operates in CA and is called BLG Talent, LLC and another company that provides the same services starts doing business in the same state and is called BLG Models and Talent, LLC

Is that legal? Or does the first business owner in that state have legal priority to operate? Thank you

my car was stolen and then they lit the car on fire and everything is destroyed inside and on the car - most likely no evidence.

evidence - car keys, and my wallet that were in the possesion of the suspect during the crime, these were thrown out of the car and laid in the grass next to a road overnight. a dog found the items and a woman took them home and put them in a plastic bag, after that these items have barley been touched.

there is a chance that suspect is still in possesion of stolen items such as subwoofers, amplifiers, and other things stolen from car.

what are my chances of getting this suspect convicted for this crime and finding evidence on wallet and keys?

See another Border Patrol Agent Being Sent To Prison.
http://www.washtimes.com/national/200702...
A Texas deputy sheriff who fired shots at a fleeing vehicle after the driver tried to run him down faces 10 years in prison for injuring one of the passengers, a Mexican national being smuggled illegally into the United States.
The U.S. attorney, who won lengthy prison terms last year for two U.S. Border Patrol agents in the shooting of a drug-smuggling suspect, also prosecuted Edwards County Deputy Sheriff Guillermo F. Hernandez, who is to be sentenced next month.
