I got arrested a few weeks ago in Wisconsin for DUI and had to spend a mandatory 12 hours in county jail. When I was released the deputy had paperwork with my picture and other information on it. When I go to court, will they give me a copy of that stuff if I want it?

A very good friend of my husband and I gave us some money to fix our air conditioner last year because he had inherited allot of money and he knew we we in a tough spot financially. We started not to hang out as much because he wasn't the same person as he was now with all the money, we then get a text msg asking for his money.... we tell him he said we didn't have to pay it back and that we don't have the money and we were expecting our first child and just filed for bankruptcy ect.. Then every few months he would send the same msg until 6 months ago they started to get worse he started to tell my husband that im a whore and i slept with him and the baby is not his ect i don't need to go into detail. Anyways we tried to ignore them but now he is saying he has pictures (maybe nude or something) of me and he gave them to some friends and he is going to send them to people and again the name calling and stuff like that. I live inTexas

From day one, the media attacked him on virtually everything. From 9-11, to the way he used the budget as a mayor to get his wife bodyguards, to the kerik scandle, and then to the friendship between Giuliani and Bush. No kidding, I am on the maillist of the Giuliani campaign (I don't know why). But anyway, in one of the letters he sent out he said "my friend Bush."

That lost my vote....

My husband quit the job cuz the boss wouldnt pay him. He never did finish paying for the truck. The ex boss was told for 1 yr to come pick the truck up, which was broke down. He never came to get it and always said pay me when you can. my husband, found a guy who needed the parts off the truck, he sold it to him in agreement that the guy would pay $800 (what was owed to ex-boss) at $100 a wk. The guy only paid $275. Now after all this time the boss and the guy show up at our house threating to beat hubbys a** if he dont pay. Later today a detective calls my hubby and says he will have to pay the money to either guy or charges will be filed and its a state jail offense. The ex boss didnt tell the detective that he had already given the title to the other guy! nor did he tell himhe had showed up @ our house threating to beat someone up. The only thing I can find online about this law is "its a state offense if 2 or more cars,trucks are involved" Any1 know??

For example, i buy a five dollar card (which says no connection fees) to call overseas, on posters and online ads they state that i will get 42 minutes (it doesn't say aprrox.) and when i buy the card, all i get is half an hour, and thats if I use one time. If i were to talk 5 mins each call with the same card, the number of minutes actually given is much lower, 15 minutes.

I did not agree with the invasion of Iraq and did not agree with how the whole thing whose prosecuted, but the fact of the matter is we are there now, and if we leave, we are going to create a huge mess for the iraqi people and therefore have to see this thing through. Furthermore, if we leave, the terrorists are going to brag about having defeated the USA and this will only encourage them and empower them.

Lincoln County Commissioners are trying to pass an ordinance that will limit the number of dogs per acre in Lincoln County. The new law will only allow families to have one dog for every .1 acre of land, all because of a complaint a neighbor made about an animal rescue facility located in a patch of farmland near her home. The animal rescue, Tri-County Animal Rescue, is a non-profit organization responsible for saving literally ten thousand dogs' lives in the past ten years due to their commitment to a "no-kill" policy at the facility. If this law is voted in, over half of the 600 dogs at Tri-County will have to be euthanized. Currently, ALL of the dogs located at the facility are spayed or neutered, current on all vaccines, including rabies, and are properly restrained. Some of the dogs living at the shelter are simply there to finish out their years because people will not adopt them due to their old age.

Not only will over half of the animals be euthanized, but taxpayers will have an increase in the amount of taxes they pay to have the euthanasia of all the dogs turned over to animal control performed. The county actually used taxpayers' money to perform this horrible, agonizing event. Here is an eyewitness account from the voice of a Tri-County worker:

“They take the dogs and put as many of them as they can in what they call the 'killer'. It is a chamber made of steel with a glass door that allows the workers to see inside. They literally 'stuff' as many of them into the chamber as they can. It is very crowded and many of the dogs try to reach the door so that they can see out. Now they start screaming and howling. About this time, the door is slammed shut for the last time and the chamber is sealed off. Then the hissing sound starts and the dogs' lungs start burning. They ARE aware of this and IT DOES HURT! The workers have to look through the glass at all of them to make sure that they are all dead. After this, they are placed into the back of a County truck and are hauled to the county landfill with the rest of the garbage.”

We are asking anyone and everyone to please help Tri-County Animal Rescue as well as the hundreds of other dogs that will be have to be “murdered” if this law is passed by Lincoln County Commissioners. Please help us save the lives of these beloved animals! They deserve a second chance and a life as well! The County Commissioners are voting December 17, 2007 – Please help us save the lives of our dogs!!! E-mail or call the Commissioners – even if you live anywhere other than Lincoln County, NC – even out of state! - and tell them NOT TO DO THIS!!! Every voice that speaks out can help!!!
