My father passed away this weekend. He had remarried to a much younger woman. There is no will. I am the only child. Her family has decided that I don't get squat, Not even pictures. I live in KY. Since there is no will and I am his only living relative and she is his wife, aren't we supposed to have to split the assets, debt or whatever is left behind? Where do I go from here?

Do colleges have a legal right to ban their students or athletes from using social networking sites? The University of Minnesota Duluth recently has tried enacting a policy of preventing their athletes from using Facebook.com and similar sites.

For some reason, I feel that there most certainly exists legal precedent that wouldn't allow for such policies, even for athletes. Does this not start to infringe on free speech rights? A college would never be allowed to ban students or athletes from speaking publicly in other fashions, or to the press.

I am a leasing consltant at a property in tx. I recently gave my notice at an apartment community and they sent me home. Now they are saying I do not get my commision for people that had already moved in before I quit. The week before I gave my notice I had to go see my grandma i NC. I came back two days earlier then I told them. I do not have any flight itenerary or any way to get it. They are saying that I have to provide flight iternerary in order to get my commisions, even though the two have nothing to do with eachother. I need help, my commision check alone was supposed to be 1200 dollars. I need this money to buy food for my child and to buy books for school. Please someone let me know if this is legal, or if there is a way to get flight itenerary. Thanks so much.

if no money changes hands, and if both are willing? I ask of course due to the situation that Sen. Larry Craig is in.When answering, I request that you put aside your approval or disapproval of homosexuality or adultery. Just tell me if you think that soliciting should be a crime, and why. Thanks.

He admitted to committing a crime. He spied on someone in a bathroom stall and gave commonly accepted hand signals indicating that he wanted sex from that person. When it was denied, he didn't go away - he kept insisting.

At the very least... he watched someone else peeing. Isn't that sick and twisted enough for you to stop being so defensive about him? Can't even ONE of you say, "Oh, my God, thats disgusting; that man has nothing to do with me or my party and I will not defend him"?

Do you ALWAYS have to protect CONVICTED criminals in your party????
