Ok, so I recieved money orders for a company that I was suppose to cash and send them the money. Stupid me, I did, but I didn't cash in my bank account, because I don't have one, I cashed at a check cashing place. Well now I'm getting calls from them telling me it was fake and that they are going to file a police report and they want their money. I don't have the money anymore, otherwise I would give it to them. I had no idea that this was a scam...I don't know what could happen to me? Could I go to jail? Or what? It's my understanding that these check cashing places are suppose to call and verify everything before they cash it...if they had done this in the first place, all this could have been avoided. And please don't berate me for being stupid and doing this, I'm doing a pretty good job of that myself. Call it being naive. Any Lawyers out there that can tell me what can happen?

Can anyone point me to the right site to find the laws about having a very small bonfire on a long stretch of beach, miles from any houses? (more of a campfire)
I'm hoping I can get a few friends together to have a small bonfire on guy fawkes night - we have some small fountain fireworks too but I dont want to end up being the cause of wasting firemens time, so I wondered if it's illegal here in Scotland? I dont know where to start looking, so any pointers would be much appreciated.
By the way, we're a group of young adults with no intention of causing any kind of bother to anyone... the location is well out of the way and probably no one will see us anyway but I'd be mortified if we were given a talking to by angry firemen.

i work for a manufacturing company...usually, i don't care how well a person speaks English...but i need technical help on a very time sensitive program, and i need someone that speaks "perfect English", in the sense that English is their primary language, and at least understand the words i speak...So that i don't have to explain what i mean when i use standard American English or slang, and so that i can understand the other person easily when they talk

is this legally acceptable? i don't consider this to be discriminatory, because the capability to speak a language is a skill, and people can be hired and fired based on skills...its not like the job doesn't req language, and i just want an American or anything like that... I just don't have the time to teach someone how to do what i need them to do, while teaching them English...

I DO NOT WANT YOUR MORAL OPINION. I NEED TO KNOW THE LEGAL IMPLICATIONS.

Thanks

Hilary is starting to take the lead and distance herself from the other democratic candidates. I believe she is going to win because she has the three W's. She's white, she's a woman, and she's going to win. How about you?

Is it because they wish for the population that listens, like demagogues from the 30's did in Europe, to imagine them as the experts on...economics, environmental science, military history, political history, world foreign affairs, government spending patterns, industry, world industry, immigration patterns, psychology...and on and on and on....

The world has become more international and very few wars are fought with just one nation. For example the Iraq War has troops from 49 countries and korean war had 22 nations.

What are the best foreign troops you have fought alongside and why?

Also what are the worst foreign troops and why?

we have soldiers risking their lives for Iraq but God forbid George Bush put soldiers near our borders to prevent terrorists from sneaking in.
Why does this not make sense?????

Yesterday he called a news conference to warn the american people to not become complacent about our vulnerability to attack by terrorist. Isnt this the same man who has refused to guard our borders and left us wide open to attack. Dont get me wrong Bush is far better than any of the dems when it comes to terrorism but i think he is afflicted with the same problem daddy bush had he just doesnt get it what do you think?
