Okay, so I'm making a music video for school using the song "Shoes". I'll be editing it to get rid of some of the language. I was wondering if it turns out to be a hit at school, and if I could burn the video to some CD's and sell them for $3 each, would it be illegal? I'm in 7th grade, btw.

I've just about had it. This morning 4 out of 7 women that work for me called in sick. Reason? Their "cycle".
Can I just fire all of them and replace them with men that don't have the same problem?

found my son's picture on the internet??????

i am having a problem with my EX. he is on a 100% mental disablity, has been arrested, tried and convicted for beating me up. i've had restraining orders against him in 2 states, he has stalked me long distance. he constantly takes me to court with false allegations, it just goes on and on.

now i found out he just put up a MYSPACE account with a picture of my elementary school aged child. he listed himself as "single", although he is married (she's #6 or #7), just based on the information i know.

i have some grave concerns about him and the internet and how he always seems to have boys around the same age with him, yet he has 4 sons, one of which is in prison, that have nothing to do with him.

he's around 60.

i have full custody. i don't want my child's picture on the internet. just wondering, does anyone know if this is illegal?

He's the least Theocratic candidate in the Republican race. At least, I thought he was. . . . So, why is Culture Warrior Robertson supporting him? Especially since Dr. Dobson had threatened to start a third party if Giuliani won the nomination?

There was a question that came up in the debate last ight about exploration to Mars. Don't you think that we should be more concerned with trying to explore more of our own planet before exploring someone else's. In defense of Hillary regarding what Huckabee said:

She should be sent to the bottom of the oceans to explore
rather than Mars. This way if she is needed to vote on a crucial issue in Congess we can instantly get in contact with her. Huckabee had one illogical lapse of judgement with what he said, Hillary will only go to Mars provided she can still make life miserable for conservatives from there.

They are disavowing themselves every step of the way-they almost all say that going into Iraq was a bad idea (but now we are there we have to finish etc.) they all say the Republican adm. (which they were part of ) has over spent..they say the border need to be tightened(cutting off cheap labor to their cooporate backers) what a cluster......I know I am gonna hear alot of Clinton blah blah but man we have a recession on the horizon.....and the Iraq war has created alot of millionaires...

Granted, there are some menial jobs in the field, But when you take into consideration the mathmatical skills (angles, weight, measurements, blue prints) the knowledge of regulations, running large crews, the ability to operate the high-tech tools and machinery, staying on top of state of the art technology (radiant heat,etc)risking their lives for their trade, on top of being able to meet deadlines and budgets, how can people assume they are uneducated? They sit in their air conditioned office (which wouldnt be there if not for them) and type data into a program that does the calculations for them, yet look down on these people. It's not as if you just pick up a drill and suddenly know how to run duct work efficiently or rebuild an AC unit.

i have a semi-office job, but have nothing but respect for the people responsible for giving us the buildings and skylines we admire but give no credit for.

KHARTOUM, Sudan - Riot police surrounded a Sudanese court as proceedings began Thursday against a British teacher charged with inciting religious hatred over letting her pupils name a teddy bear Muhammad.....f convicted, Gibbons faces up to 40 lashes, six months in jail and a fine, Sudanese officials have said, with the verdict and any sentence up to the "discretionary power of the judge.".....The country's top Muslim clerics have pressed the government to ensure that she is punished, comparing her action to author Salman Rushdie's "blasphemies" against the Prophet Muhammad.

I say no. The president has very little power when it comes to abortion. Abortion is allowed because of a supreme court decision about privacy. It says that state laws prohibiting abortion are unconstitutional. Thanks supreme court for letting states make up their own minds.

How do we end abortion? A constitutional amendment RIGHT BY GOD NOW STOP MAKING EXCUSES AND PUTTING IT OFF CONTACT CONGRESS RIGHT BY GOD NOW. Clear enough?

No one talks about impeaching him for lying to the people about the reasons why America invaded Iraq? I'm not a fan of Clinton's by any means but what he did was tame compared to Bush's lies about Iraq. The lies of Bush resulted in more than 3000 American Soldiers lives lost. 4 years later no weapons found. So when will the impeachement process for Bush begin or is this another example of a doublestandard?
