Politics & Government - 7 December 2007

I have already filed a letter of non-receipt with the company and they have told me that the claim is pending with the shipping company. I think that the company should issue me a refund and the claim with the shipping company should be resolved between them and the shipping company since I did not get a choice on shipping. I think over 3 months (I purchased the item mid-Aug) is a pretty lengthy period for a refund for an item I never received in the first place. Does anyone have any advice of what I can do at this point? The company is legitimate, they are not a fly by night, but obviously their customer service is horrible.

However when I was having a nervous breakdown and she took him to help me out, she said she'd be waiting for me to get my life togeher, I should take as long as I need.

My son has bween with her for almost four years however I saw him, minimum once in two weeks and right now a lot more, three times a week. I work in Sales but I'm not making much. I just need time, and I don't understand why mother went so far, except that she's an orthodox Jewish individual and I am not.

I love my son, I will fight till I die, but I would rather even it out and have a good relationship with my family, settle it out of court.

Another, and last hearing is in January, I don't know if I will have enough time to get situated. I would like to go for Trial.

I have been the one to sign all the documents for services required for my son so far.

What are my legal actions?

China alone, right now, is producing as much green house gas as the entire US and only about 1/4 of it's population (about the size of the entire US population) has become "industrialized" but that will double over the next 10 years.

So now you will have a China producing double the amount of green house gas that the US current produces now & there will be absolutely no way to stop them?

So unless all you environmentalists can wipe China off the map there is NO WAY to stop Global warming so stop whinning about it.

Hi all.

I know a question along this lines has already been asked, but I/we have a slightly different scenario/case.

My husband I and finished our USCIS interview today. At the end of the interview, the immigration officer said he couldn't approve our case due to the background check that was still pending on our/his case. My question is - is this a promising sign or a negative one? Does this mean my husband and I successfully completed the interview? Is there any way that they could deny my husband his "Adjustment of Status" during the background check process?

Also, our immigration officer was quite rude and aggressive in his interviewing tactics. (He irritated me quite a bit - I'm hoping I didn't show it too much.) I was wondering, was it lawful for him to ask "leading questions"? (I know that leading questions are not allowed in Law Enforcement and get your case thrown out of court in the blink of an eye. I'm assuming the rules are the same for USCIS officers/department...?)

Porter Goss former CIA director was the fraternity brother of George W. Bush's uncle. Goss was nominated by Bush to serve as the Director of the CIA. The nomination of Bush's family buddy was challenged by many key democrats however Goss got the job. During Goss's reign he sent controversial memo's to the CIA staff indicating that they needed to "support the administration and it's policies in our work". The CIA is supposed to be unbiased as to political affiliation to give true intelligence reports that do not support the accusations of one party. It was under his leadership that the interrogation tapes were destroyed. Now, Bush does not "recall" knowing his buddy did this. What do you think?

Long story short - told boss I was pregnant, baby died in 5th month, then diagnosed with blood disorder, doctor said not to return to work for about 6 months. Gave boss dr's note, he said it was unacceptable, told me I was a liar, that I was the reason that he had to work every weekend for the last 4 months, and that I had to apologize to him for sending him a letter explaining the seriousness of my disease and letting him know that I was disappointed that after 8 years' of service, my situation was handled with such a lack of sensitivity. Boss doubted my baby's age at death, and said so in his letter to me. Hence my reply, which I was asked to apologize for. Told him no way, just stating the facts and my feelings - then was told "this discussion is over", I replied "I get the impression I am not welcome here anymore", he replied, "no you're not, now get out of here, you're not welcome here anymore". I filed complaint with labour board, and now he denies everything - priceless!

The illegals wouldn't come if they didn't benefit.

Those who employ them benefit by paying less than to an American for the same work.

The Americans don't want to work for that pay level anyway so they are not losing anything they want.

Illegals don't draw welfare etc so they don't cost the system anything.

It seems like everyone benefits so why do so many people complain?

I think the GOP race is far more interesting and also much harder to predict than the Democratic race.

Who will win the Republican nomination for President in '08?

I live in California. If you are employed by someone who harasses you frequently, but only when you're alone so that there would be no evidence, would it be legal to record him doing it? Or would you just have to deal with it?
