Near the end of WW2 one of the numerous "balloon bombs" released by the Japanese fell in the school yard in Woodson, Texas. Where would I go, or who could I contact to get copies of the original reports and any photographs that may have been taken?

I previously posted a question about mexicans coming over here for a better life about 9 hours ago. I can see that I asked it the wrong way, but some people still seemed to have understood. Some other people brought up other points about other countries as well. Others brought up isolated situations where they had bad experiences with illegals from mexico. Although unfortunate, I wouldnt place blame on ALL illegals just because some did wrong. Thats just stereotyping. No one group of people is perfect. As for costing the taxpayers money, true, I know many illegals who leech off the system via welfare, but i know just as many that get screwed over. They work all day, taxes come out of their checks. They do everything a citzen does, but get no insurance benefits, tax refunds, or licenses

So now my question is, WHAT WOULD YOU DO, if you lived in poverty, oppresion, etc; You are the head of a family and theyre suffering. You tried to get in the legal way, but it didnt work. What now?

I was pulled over by a PA state cop for speeding. But looking closely on the ticket, the date that I "sped" is in correct. It says "08" instead of "07". So technically I wasn't speeding in 2008. Who do I talk to get this taken of? Preferably not a lawyer because I don't want to pay for anything.

I posted this in the Religion section earlier, but I think it applies here too. Critics accuse Muslims of converting by the sword, but I've yet to recieve even a soft attempt to convert me. I have been solicited by Mormons, Jehova Witnesses, and Baptists however. I've known many Muslims, but never have they ever expressed even a passing interest at bringing me into their religion

Her reason is she does not think she can afford to raise the child.


Be sure to give the reasoning for your opinion.....then....Also, assuming you say that she should be banned from aborting, lets move forward 8 years. She has had the child, a little girl, and is still dirt poor, has a very low paying job for minimum wage and has no healthcare.

Do you think that child should have access preventative routine non-emergency health and dental care? Or do you think the amount of care the child gets should be a function of the wealth of her family? So that for example, this poor little girl with the poor mother can get access to health care only in cases of emergency at some county hospital, and only after she is already seriously ill?

My husband and I have been togethor for 1yr. My husband has been incarcerated for 1yr. My husband had to give up custody of his son due to his situation to his mother. I am not the mother of his son so I had no legal ability to recieve custody. My husband will be relased within the next six months. The courts have ordered him to a rehibilation home in our city for three months so he can get his life on track and learn how to survive in the job force. My husband has no prior record this is actually his first time in prison. Due to his early release my husband and I would like to begin our new life togethor as newlyweds, and also regain custody of his son from his mom. Is there any legal reason why my mother - law would retain custody, Due to my husband Record?

My sister in law has a temporary restraining order against me (she obtained it with false information, but I suppose that is irrelevant to this question). Anyhow, I was out Friday night and she showed up at the club where I was. I notified the bouncer and he had her escorted out. She argued that since she has the restraining order on me, that I should leave...but I was there first. Who is right? I know each state has different laws on this, I am in Illinois. I looked over the restraining order and I can't find the answer to my question on it. Many thanks!

legally to make the dr/doctors involved take resposibility for the damage that they caused? I had eye surgery at Kaiser and I look like a freak my eye is 97% red all of the time and it looks like a ball of jelly. The surger was to straighten a crooked eye that I was born with it's technically called strabismis, my eye is still crooked but now instead of it going toward the left it's crooked towards the right. Then day after the surgery my eye was infected. I went back the surgeon said that it was normal and just healing well I wasn’t in a normal amount of pain so I got a second opinion & that doctor said something 2 the fact that it’s 2 soon 2 tell because she couldn’t see past the scaring tissue. I sought the advise of an attorney in SF he asked me 2 send pictures and a copy of my medical records,I did. He sent me a letter saying that he wouldn’t take my case (no time) he advised me about the SOL & told me 2 keep looking for an attorny. The SOL passed, is there anything that I can do?

American folks?

I really don't care if something about not taking sides is serious or not. It's funny how every show, every topic, every debate, they all favor democratic candidates. Yahoo feels comfortable with a democrat, they assume if they picked a republican, everyone would bash them and boycott yahoo answers. Shouldn't yahoo know that Obama is inexperienced in foreign policy? That was the most uneducated debate I ever seen from last month. They can do much better than that. Pick a good Republican like Frank Thompson or Rudy Guiliani. Make politics FAIR and do the right thing.

House shifts $16 billion toward renewable energy!
Republicans called it a "no-energy bill" because it lacks new drilling incentives, and they derided the new emphasis on renewables as "green pork." The White House threatened to veto the bill on concerns that it could boost energy prices.

Didn't Bush say that the USA is addicted to oil and needs to find alternate energy sources? Or was he just refering to ethanol?
