Self-help, do it yourself magazines? Do you think they'd benefit from such magazines and books?

im a junior in high school. i take honors and ap classes, am involved in tons of activities (student council, debate, church, choir, etc), and am involved in my community. and i really want to be a Foreign Service Officer. What should i do to become one? Am i pretty much on the right track? What should my major be in college? Is this too far-fetched of a goal?

I signed a contract 2 years ago and now because the mortgage industry is getting worst, the company wants me to sign a new contract lowering my base salary, bonus and no transportation expenses. What could happen if I don't sign the new contract? Do I be entitled to received unemployment benefits?

That's what the leftist illegal alien excuse makers are saying when they compare a woman who left her own son willingly in the US while being deported for breaking several federal crime laws to Rosa Parks. She could have taken her son, as any non-attention getting true mother would have done

Yesterday I ask Can a person in the military get in trouble for having and extra martial affair? I need to include details so that I can get a more accurate answer. First I have been with this solider for 10 years and didn't find out he was married until he got out just a couple of weeks ago. Unknowing I am the other women he was cheating with. He is official out of the military (after 7 yrs) but while he was in he received seperate housing pay and pay for being away from his spouse of which I didn't know he was getting. I didn't know he was married and we were engaged in Sept 2001. He kept telling me that he wanted to wait until he got out for good in case he didn't survive. It wasn't until his final pay stub that came in the mail that it indicated he was married.Can he still be punish by law and if so, how do I go about filling charges or who do I tell, where do I start.

I mean if you are in the same religion, shouldnt you at least tolerate each other?

If I can get a muslim to explain this to me, it would be tremendous. The other question I have is, is the difference really being fanned more by leaders and mullahs who try to incite hatred of the other side, or do average ordinary muslims living their lives really hate the other side and cannot coexist?

I am getting things together for a care package, and you know the typical things are on the list...socks, soap, tooth paste, etc.

What are some things that you really wish you had when you were over seas?

We lived together for about 8 months in Wright County, Minnesota. When I moved out, I asked if he would like me to pay half of the rent and utility bill for the last month we were on that lease together. He told me not to worry about it, but I eventually found out that he wrote bad checks all over the place that last month and then skipped town. I now have paid for the rent ($750), the late fees ($255), and a collection agency for the bank in which we had an account together ($107). I paid all of these because my name was also attached to them, but I would like to at least get him to pay me back for half. I'm wondering if that's possible and how I would go about doing that, only knowing that he is somewhere in Ohio. I do know his parents address in Ohio, but I do not have their phone number, nor do I have his. I do, however, have his social security number. Please help!

"There I am and suddenly an explosion is heard, someones leg falls in front of me. Oh wait, I don't need to picture it, I remember it. I was there. Yeah it's hell over there, but if you think it will save more Iraqi lives by us pulling out then your out of your mind.

You try picturing this: 15 kids surround you with smiles on their faces as you hand out goodies in front of a new school that was built by our servicemen and women. Or their parents laughing, shaking your hand and thanking you for helping them. Wait I'm sure you can't, because the liberal media won't show you that part of what's going on over there.

Get a clue. Not only will more people die if we leave that country, but even more terrorist will be created. "

OK let me get this straight someone who is here ILLEGALLY was set up in church laying low than she starts traveling the country side demanding to stay here. So ICE deported her back to Mexico. Rightly so.
Now we haven't hit bottom in this story.

In Mexico if you caught as illegally you are automatically deported no if ands or buts. Your gone. No social programs. No health care. No sancutary.

They expect us to keep the illegals here from Mexico.

Can you say hypocrites?

Save the stuff about her son being a US citizen.

If she even would learn to speak English or show some remose maybe just maybe I would feel sorry for her.

OK your turn inform me where I am going wrong on this.

Just read where the guy who shot George Wallace in 1972 will be released from prison later this year, But Sirhan Sirhan, the guy that shot Robert Kennedy in 1968 is still in prison. Is this reverse discremination? Is the fact that Wallace was a racist the reason why he's getting out, but Sirhan is still rotting in jail?

...she would get the same treatment from the Right that Bush got from the left?

And that nothing would get done because of partisan bickering?

--The Saigon regime was set up as a proxy for the French
-the Vietnam conflict was a popular revolt against this dictatorship (i.e. this was a CIVIL WAR, not "communist aggression)
--Following the American departure, the civil war continued until the Saigon dictatorship fell.
--Other than a couple of relatively short, minor conflicts, Vietnam has been at peace since.

Does Bush EVER check his facts? Or does he just go ahead and lie for the fun of it?

Can I plead guilty without a lawyer.
I got a ticket for speeding and the cop claims I was going 80, but I was really going 70 or so which by the way makes a $100 difference in payment. The speed limit was 55 by the way, I want to plead not guilty but I don't want to spend anymore
money than I have to. I just don't want to plead guilty for driving at 80 when I really wasn't.. The state is NJ
