Is it a violation to be in a car with a driver that is intoxicated(your the passenger) when you had a 1st offense DUI misdemeanor? Or Anything else in general that I can avoid to a violation in the 3-5 years probation. Please feel free to add on anything related to this subject. Thanks

My mother passed away when I was 9 years old, and my family had her buried in her hometown, where she was born and raised.
The problem is, she HATED it in Fresno, and I don't think it's right for her to be buried there. I was in Fresno over the weekend, and i went to visit her, only to find that over the last ten years, only one person in the family has visited her, and that she STILL has no headstone.
So I spoke with my mom's twin (the only one who visits her) and asked if I had her blessing in exhuming my mother's body to Newport Beach (her favorite city). I also asked my brother (he was the executor of her estate), and he said that he'd purchase a headstone, and that I had his blessing to have her moved.

Now, I'm just wondering, how do I go about doing that?
And please, no answers of "I should leave her be," Fresno is the LAST place that she'd want her body laid to rest.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!

quote...
She also said she does not support cutting benefits or increasing the retirement age.

1.) How specifically is supporting the tie breaking vote of Al Gore for taxation of social security NOT reducing benefits. Along with breaking a fifty year old promise to the nations elderly, if you have less money for discretionary spending and are paying more of what's allocated to you, then ...newsflash...THATS A REDUCTION IN BENEFITS.
2.) How is supporting the clinton authored largest tax increase in us history not reducing beneifits and relief to the elderly. taxes dont embolden an economy or stimulate it..THEY STIFLE IT.
quote2.)
"When I'm president, privatization is off the table because it's not the answer to anything."
3.) How is privatization NOT the answer. What possible benefit could it be to a potential retiree to ceede his retirement money to leaders with this motivation

I recently discovered (completely by accident) one of the new hires who reports to me is getting compensated more than me. I have much more responsibility than him and I do not understand why he's getting paid more than me. I am his direct supervisor. Is this ever ok? Could I get fired if I bring this to my manager's attention? What should I do?

I was alone at a bar and a guys started picking on me, I had a lot to drink that night too, I didn't provoke his attention nor egged him on.

It got to the point in my mind that I feared for my saftey

I struck the guy in the face a good 5 times with my car keys

I'm about 5'4" 120 lbs and have no priors, I'm mild manored, I've taught in elementary school, I'm a college student and plan to join the navy after school.

what are the chances I'm going to jail

what are the chances that I get the felony droped to a misdemnor on grounds that I was in self defense mode

would I have a right to call this self defense

he did not push or hit me first but he was being verbal to the point where I though it might go that way

I didn't consciously use my keys, it all happen so fast and without thought.

I am really upset over what I did


any advice, I'm getting a lawyer

thanks

As one car (A) was proceeding through a green light in a complicated intersection, another car (B) runs through the intersecting red light in front of (A). (A) hits (B). A witness stopped and told the police that (B) ran through the red light. However the police did not issue a ticket to (B). Is there any chance at all that car (A) will be found at fault or duel fault?

Every year we give a few hundred thousand work visas to degreed proffesionals. If we allow each of those individuals to bring with them at the time of entry,10 people, of thier choosing then we will have a supply od unskill laborors who are linked to a professionally employed person who can help them. They are then less likely to be exploited, more likely to pay for health care and less likely to use welfare. Additionally, these people would have little to no reason to send back money to thier families as thier families will be among the 10 people. This plan will promote college education in other countries. People here illegally will try to send money back to sponsor colege students so they can "enter" legally when that person gets a US job. The visa and background checks are paid for by the hiring company. It will save us billions in money sent back to home countries by allowing entire families to come at once and still provide a ready pool of unskilled workers.

In an interview President Bush was asked what he would do after his term is over, and among other things he said, "I'd like to make some money....replenish the ol' coffers. I can make ridiculous money on the lecture circuit. I don't know what my dad gets, but it's more than fifty, seventy five thousand....Clinton's making a LOT of money. Six years from now you're not gonna see hanging out in the lobby of the UN".

There's no doubt Bush is free to do whatever he wants when his term is up. But whether you love him or hate him, how can anyone think it's anything but inappropriate for a President to be talking about lining his own pockets with cash as he sends troops into war?
