I'm going to file ch. 7 soon. All I have of value is my $2500 car. The letters from the credit card agencies have just begun to switch in tone from very polite to "more aggressive actions" etc. What exactly can they do? Can they take my car?

I am making a homeowners association informational website where residents can go look up bi-laws and information about the community and how they can contact a board member or ask questions etc. I was elected secretay and graduated college with a degree that allows me to make sites. Our board agreed (including our management representative) that we wanted a site, free, because our budget is low. Its strictly a site to find community information, we are not profiting off it. I've worked weeks on the site and now the president called me and said she doesnt want to put the site up because we can get sued by the information we put up. Does she have a point? All the information I am putting up is coming from our management company and I have a disclaimer up. I just want to know if she has a good argument. Ive worked over a month on the site and really don't want to waste all that work.

I have been served a lawsuit for Child Support for a kid that's not mine. I'm 100% it's not mine because I live in Florida, I have never been to California nor I've met this woman that's listed as the mother.
They list my name, but I KNOW IT'S NOT ME!
I think I should file a lawsuit against the State of California. My girlfriend now believes I actually have a child up in CA.
Any advice? If you are a lawyer and think I have a case, let me know...

The Chinese government announced today that it plans to dump $1.4 trillion USD on the international currency exchange in favor of the more stable Euro.
This move will flood the currency market with USD and drive the value of the dollar down much further than the all time low it is now.
The effects of this move will be hard felt here in the USA. Anyone care to predict the outcome?

America's growing dependence on foreign oil is a dangerous threat to our national security. Much of the global oil supply is located in unstable nations and the burden on our military to safeguard access to that oil increases daily. According to military and security experts, the most effective and efficient way to achieve greater energy independence and increase our national security is for Congress to pass energy legislation that increases how far our cars and trucks can go on a tank of gas.
Right now Congress is crafting the final version of legislation that could cut our oil use by increasing the vehicle fuel mileage standard to a fleetwide average of 35 mpg by 2020. If passed, these standards would reduce our country's oil consumption by 1.2 million barrels a day, more than twice the amount we currently import from Iraq. But, the auto companies are fighting this increase, pressuring lawmakers to weaken or delay energy legislation.

Catalina High Magnet School student and his family were deported after school officials found marijuana in his backpack and called Tucson police, who notified the Border Patrol after learning the family was here illegally.
The incident caused concern among immigrant rights advocates, but Tucson police officials say the officer acted appropriately in calling Border Patrol agents to the school.
On Thursday, police responded to Catalina High after school officials found a small amount of marijuana in the backpack of a ninth-grader who appeared to be under the influence, said Chyrl Hill Lander, Tucson Unified School District spokeswoman.
Police asked the boy's parents to come to the school, at East Pima Street and North Dodge Boulevard.
When the officer asked to see the drivers' licenses of the boy's parents, they said they had been living illegally in the United States for six years and that their 17-year-old son and his brother, a 12-year-old sixth-grader at Doolen Middle School, were also here illegally, said Roberto Villaseñor, assistant Tucson police chief.
The officer called the Border Patrol, which sent agents to the school, said Richard DeWitt, Tucson Sector spokesman. They took the boy and his parents into custody and escorted the family from the school, Lander said.
From there, they went to Doolen Middle School, where the couple's other son was waiting in the principal's office when the officer and agents arrived, she said.
The mother and two boys were processed and dropped off at the border by the Border Patrol to return to Mexico in a procedure called voluntary return. The father was held for a formal removal — formerly known as a deportation — because he had been apprehended various times by the agency, DeWitt said. Their names were not released.
Police officials and the union said the officer handled the case correctly.
The boy had committed a crime, and the department's policy allows officers discretion to call the Border Patrol when they suspect someone they encounter is here illegally, Villaseñor said.
"We can't lose track of the fact that an administrator came across a juvenile who was violating the law, in possession of marijuana," Villaseñor said. "That is a crime in this country, whether you are here illegally or not."

But immigrants' rights groups say allowing immigration officials into schools could create distrust and fear in the immigrant community.
What's wrong with that? Shouldn't criminals be afraid?
The whole idea of enforcing the laws is to make the lawbreakers feel uncomfortable and make them change their behavior. Like Leave.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has announced that U.S. taxpayers will be footing the startup costs of a program to install satellite tracking technology on vehicles taking part in the Mexican Truck Demonstration Program.
The announcement confirmed the U.S. government would "initially spend approximately $367,000 to outfit all trucks from the United States and Mexico that take part in the program."
According to the administration, "the decision to require the installation of satellite tracking technology on trucks in the program was made after members of Congress expressed a desire to know whether participants are complying with federal safety and trade laws."
A key opponent of the program, and author of the language in the transportation appropriations bill to halt funding of the program, continued to express disappointment Barry Piatt, spokesman for Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., told WND, "It's an indication that they are going forward with the program, despite strong and pretty clear opposition from both chambers of Congress."
Congressman Duncan Hunter's office told WND he agrees. "The tracking technology, while a step in the right direction, does very little to ensure compliance with safety and security standards. The focus must remain on implementing reliable and enforceable standards that ensure Mexican truckers with access to U.S. roadways do not threaten the safety of vehicle motorists or America's security," explained Joe Kasper, spokesman for Hunter, R-Calif.
According to the FMCSA, the technology will help continue to ensure that trucks operating as part of the program are complying with the agency's rigorous safety standards and U.S. trade laws.
