There was a man who rape a young gal in Lousianna. The issue in that case is if he will get the death pentality or not? There was a woman teacher who took her 13 year old student to mexico with her and there is no issue about the death penality with her. Why is there such a difference? Why are most pedophiles just assume to be males? Why is there such a stereotype on the Label?

OK, sorry I keep asking about this. I asked if recruiters are taught how to administer a tape test, and received mainly the same answer that they will fudge things if they can to meet quota. I'm now wondering if the way they "fudge" things (I don't know if that's true or not) is to kind of alter the way they measure. It seems pretty subjective, especially around the hips. I always imagine that to be at the hip bone, which is where I was measured, not down around the butt, which is where I thought they were supposed to do it. Anyway, should I worry too much? It seems like they should know how to do their job and would measure properly. Ok, I think there may be a question buried in here! Sorry! Thanks.

I have an interview schedule in a month for my Adjustment of Status/Green Card and finally get permanent residence. I was very excited upon receiving my schedule for the interview. But then again, I started to panic or at least started thinking so much about the interview. I only know a few people that have gone through the same process that also lives in Chicago. One of them have done it almost a year ago.

If you have gone through an interview in the Chicago local district office, please let me know what your experience is. Also, my lawyer that represented us is in Texas right now and her family is there. She wont' be able to be there during the interview. Would it be ok to bring another lawyer to the interview?

Thanks so much!

WW1 The Australian Light Horse charged the Turkish held garrison at Bathsheaba, 1000 years of Muslim rule was conquered in an astonishing assault raid by the 800 Australian Light Horsemen who charged at dusk, over running the Turkish defences while being shot at by enemy machine gun fire, artillery and German pilots dropping hand held mortars from over head sweeps. Outnumbered they than dismounted and captured the stronghold to turn the course of the Regional War and capture and preserve life saving wells for water. This is a feat the Brittish and otehr Allies were unable to chieve across open desert and a magnificent Victory and Gallipoli. Only 34 men were fell during the charge which chaged the campaign !

There is no way I would ever accept that entity as my "president." What would be my options?

1. Leave the country?

2. Remain here and legally withdraw my citizenship through an attorney? Are there attorneys that specialize in this?

3. I'm pretty old and have never gotten a tattoo, and I think they're stupid. But could I get one in a conspicuous place that says "She's Not My President," and is it painful to get a tattoo say on your forehead?

4. If I stay, could I wear a filtered breathing mask for the term of her entire regime. Somehow, I would feel that the air would even be polluted throughout the land.

4. Any other advice?

I have been involved in few car "runs". These are small local events that take place every few months. They are not races or rallys, but more of a moving car show. We communicate on online forums and plan to meet at a predetermined location. We drive about 2 hours away to a road where we get to test our driving skills. The road is pretty challenging for unexperienced drivers, but we all just try to have a safe, good time.

Somehow I ended up planning the next run. Don't get me wrong, it isn't an organized/sanctioned event. By planning, I simply mean that I picked out a date and a meeting place and I post it on a forum. Then everyone on the forums says if they are planning on attending.

After a few weeks of checking the forums, I realized that we might have between 40-50 drivers. I am beginning to worry about the liability aspect of the run. Am I liable if someone decides to get stupid, or crashes their car? How can I protect myself against legal action? Can I be Sued?

I think before a President can order other men into mortal combat to kill or be killed, that he or she should have at least served on active duty in a branch of the miltary and showed up and not have lots of missing pages from his or her miltary record. If they are President then 3 Senators with good, clear military records should give the approval of the order to war. It seems unfair to send men and women into combat if you did not even show up for even the Air National Guard doesn't it?

I dont know about you but honestly I am tired of hearing of Iran defying us and their arogant pursuit of WOMD. Not only are they supplying the terrorist in iraq, but are threatening our ally Isreal with threats claiming to wipe Isreal off the map. I believe it is time we show Iran that those who dare to defy the west, threaten our allies, deny the holocaust, support terrorist that are killing US troops, and already threatening to cause chaos if more sanctions are enforced because of their own arrogance. What are your thoughts? Put yourself in President Bush's shoes and take these into consideration:
would you allow Iran to gain nuclear weapons,
Iran refuses to stop no matter what, so you cant talk your way out of it
You have the knowledge that if Iran gets nukes, they will sell it to some jihad group for some religious jibberish to use against the west or isreal.
What would do?

Sitting at a red light, a drunk driver slammed into us at 35 mph, then fled the scene. An oficer sitting at the intersection ran him off the road and arrested him. Our car $3000 in damages, his totaled. He is charged with felony DUI hit and run

My families total medical was $26,000. Suspect has 4 DUIs 3 of which were outstanding. 6 months later he arrested. He is convicted on the DUI BEFORE ours and sentenced to 1 year in jail. We need a conviction in our case so we can sue for punitive damages. I call DA office to see when they will prosecute him in our case. They say is has been VL and he will not be prosecuted?
I get upset and ask to speak directly to DA, explain case to him, he apologizes but said the decision is final.

My question is this is pure BS, who can I go to from here and file a complaint? This guy almost killed our whole family and they are not going to do anything? We can't introduce punitive damages in an auto case unless he is convicted of a felony? Help! T

I basically have to write a briefing note explaining the issues and advantages of the following three options:
1. Conscript for national defence only
2. Conscript for national defence and overseas service
3. Do not conscript
I also need to provide a recommendation for one of these options. Thus far, I have been using the Vietnam war as an example.
