My girlfriend/Fiance' is a UK citizen. She wants to live here with me in America. We plan to get married but we want to do it in our own time without a time limit, as she is still in the divorce process from her UK husband. Is there a way for her to stay permanently or will I need to fly her back to UK every 2.5 months to keep her always under the time limit? Are there any options for 2 people in such situation?

the cold war had continued since 1996 when the soviet union was collapsed. Turkey was the biggest allience of the US. For example, in the Cuba missile crisis, the US the US established fifteen US jupiter nuclear missiles in Turkey in April 1962. However, today Kurds became the biggest allience with the US that the US has forgotten about the cold war. Look at this link what the Americans people think about Turkey. Congratulations the US !

The other day,I've noticed that several of my fellow employees had different types of SS cards.They all had different coloring and stuff and seemed to be from different time periods. Just curious if the Administration changes them from time to time just like they do driver's licenses,etc.,because mine is from like the early 80's and it's got a mostly white background with blue lettering and not mostly blue like the newer ones.Does anyone know if that's normal?

One would assume from the media (particularly newspapers) that there are only two possibilities. Either we have laws against drugs or we condone drug use.

If we consider 'The Independent'. A couple of years ago they were advocating the legalisation of cannabis. Then, recently, they were saying "We're sorry", and going on to explain that cannabis contributes towards psychosis and so on and so forth.

Is there a possibility that we can find an alternative to laws to tackle the drug problem? It is apparently the case that drugs do not stop people from taking drugs but simply elicit a more covert approach from its users and dealers. The drug laws provide an easy way for criminals to make money and force many users into crime in order for them to pay for the drugs which are being sold by the criminals and overly inflated prices.

We can all so easily see how prohibition didn't work with alcohol but many seem unable to transfer the same reasoning onto drugs.

Is there an alternative

50 years ago, 60 per cent of the world's gross domestic product came from the G7 countries, now it's the other way round, and 60 percent of the world's GDP is produced outside the G7 countries. Is it time for these external countries to form a new order and dictate their terms for a new economic world order, including having a new world bank?

We are told if we want to smoke we can go outside but the time must be made up, unpaid and half an hour at a time. I feel this is directly discriminating againt the smoker. We can take a walk around (as long as it's inside the building) It all has to do with leaving the building. What do you think?

With respect to the war: No insult here, but isn't it possible that you have been deceived? Read the following quotes and then consider the rhetoric coming from Bush. Sound familiar?

"Of course the people dont want war...that is understood. But voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." -- Hermann Goering (1893-1946 leading member of the Nazi Party, second in command of the Third Reich, and commander of the Luftwaffe.)

Now consider:

"Wars are seldom caused by spontaneous hatreds between people, for peoples in general are too ignorant of one another to have grievances and too indifferent to what goes on beyond their borders to plan conquests. They must be urged to the slaughter by politicians who know how to alarm them."
-- Henry Mencken

During the 2004 presidential elections, the Democratic Party staged the second largest attack on a third party candidate in U.S. history. The largest ever also carried out by the Democratic Party was the assault of the Communist Party in the early 1900s when they used bombs to blow up some of their offices.

In 2004, they spent close to $20 million to prevent ballot access to the Nader/Camejo presidential ticket. They hired various corporate law firms to file phony lawsuits to remove Nader/Camejo from the ballots. One of the law firms they hired was the law firm of Kenneth Starr. GM also donated two lawyers to help in their efforts. One of the leaders of this attack was former Nader Raider, Toby Moffet, who now works for a Republican lobbying firm.

They spent more time attacking the principles of Democracy and rigging the system to their advantage rather than respecting it. They certainly are political cowards out on the playing field.

If my child is faster in getting to the toy bin than yours, why should my kid have to give up what he earned to your undeserving child?

June 8, 2007 -- The short, troubled life of a drug-dealing Harlem midget came to a violent end yesterday when he was gunned down while guzzling beer and shooting dice outside a housing project.

Cops found a huge .380-caliber pistol in the waistband of little person Joshua Agard, 18, along with 15 vials of crack that he was peddling while hanging out in a courtyard with pal Manuel Zabater, who was also killed in the attack.

"He was just so big. So [I thought], how much could he get into?" said distraught neighbor Debra Daniels, 61. "He was a good person. I loved him."

Though Agard was just 3 feet tall, he had a police record a mile long. So far this year, he had been busted twice, once on assault charges for throwing a bottle at a man's head and once for trespassing when he was caught inside 425 E. 105th St. He also had two other arrests, cops said.
