I'm 36 weeks preg. and the father is either my 2 year old son's father, or an ex boyfriend.. and my son has his father's last name of course, but I was wondering if I can put his last name on the birth certificate, instead of putting mine.. and just leave the father blank untill we get the paternity test results?

There are so many of these professional people dying from breathing the air from the 'puliverized' bldgs. And, it seems like more and more of their documented (written and /or video) statements keep stating that there were bombs / explosives being detinated in the basement of the bldgs.

These professionals were right there - seeing and hearing explosions.

What if these professional firefighters, professional policeman, professional EMT personnel, and professional executives working in the bldgs are all correct when they keep saying there's bombs in the bldgs?

What ya think & no cushy job. I’m talking about run guns / convoy security & entry control point guard duty. Have his girls working 16 hour days in 120 degree, fly infested weather. Multiple deployments to this sh*thole with 15 months deployed & 9 month back at home. Doesn’t matter if you’re a single mom or you’re married. Wonder if he would still be as committed to this b.s.

If you consider the new 700 mile fence and the new states anti illegal alien laws coming down, what would you think is a realistic number.
Our states are drowning in red ink , so will it be a year or as long as 5 years?

...to see for yourself. During the last four consecutive months, a recent Rasmussen report survey reports republican affiliation has declined from 31.1% to 30.8% in a survey of 15,000 adults. Worse yet for the democrat party, the number of self identified democrats has fallen to 36.3% resulting in a 4.5% decrease during the last six consecutive months!!! At the same time people willing to pay 25.00$ to become a card carrying member of the Libertarian party has increased 2.7% per month. Thats a 14% increase sense last December! With the Bush administration trapped on the ropes & not able to defend itself let alone carry the fight, McCain barely standing on rubbery legs, & the entire democrat party suffering due to proposals of increased taxes is it any wonder that the Libertarian party is welcoming home the "ORPHANS" of those two dieing party's? I've told all before that representative Paul speaks the TRUTH & that our Libertarian party is the party of PRINCIPAL. Please join us!

Both have said that they intend to (i) tax the hell out of you; and (ii) continue the Federal Government's policy of racial and gender discrimination (also known as affirmative action). I'm not voting for anyone who supports either of those things.

well there is still so much anti nazi propaganda, and anti hitler stuff, and anti nazis. we are still persecuting old men, we are still telling the world how bad they "are" as well as were. why why why.
if they really were as bad as people have made out, then we would already know, the simple fact is, normal people dont give a damn, and actually most normal, law biding, hard working people, if they are honest, actually agree with their policies in general. oh and please dont beat the drum about the poor jews again, and bombard me with over inflated figures, thats not the question.

Hiya, at complete wits end at the moment as the title suggests! My post ex of a stepfather had a 3year affair while with my mum and then left her, now wants our home sold and proceeds to him! He barely contributed to the costs,but is taking mum to court. She earns absoloutly nothing, but legal aid aren't interested! She has to go back to court soon,which apparently will cost £30,000 (stupid utter madness!!) She spends her days crying and is a wreck! He doesnt pay any child maintenance, so she pays absoloutly every bill and goes without anything! He is in mega debt,but is likely to have a barrister and lawyer in court and wants everything off mum! She hasnt got a pension and only money is the house, what to do!!! Anyone got any fab ideas, as most solicitors are demanding up front funds, which she doesnt have! Any advice would be soo apreciated! Thankyou in advance

It was about 30%. Sound like a familiar number? About 30% of people in any given country are apparently too stupid and partisan to see the blue sky or the green grass.

I work in a nursing home in the laundry dept. Lately when a resident aquires MRSA we are the last to know. They don't tell us usually we find out on our own and I just want to know if this is truly following hippas guidelines or if they are being a little uptight. I would've thought we had the right to know since we have contact with the resident's clothing and sometimes the resident.

So, from what I have learned through reading news and etc... social security benefits are supposedly ending about three years before I hit my retirement age...
I fall within the age range where there is a very good possibility that I will never receive social security benefits.
My only question is....
Why do I have to pay social security every payday for the rest of my life, and when it is time for me to retire, I will never get it. Will I get a check reimbursing me for everything that I have already paid in?
The government is taking my money every paycheck to supposedly "SAVE IT FOR ME TO RETIRE" but I will never get it.
Why can't I save my own social security money? Why can't I stop them from taking it from me and put it into my own account that I know I will have later in life?

Why do I have to pay social security my entire working life and never receive it once I retire.?
What a wonderful country we live in.....
