Steven Trustcott was wrongfully convicted of rape and murder about 50 years ago, and sentenced to death - the youngest Canadian to receive such a sentence (which was commuted and he spent 10 years in prison). Recently, the atrocious justice(?) system in Canada - similar to our American system - declared him Not Guilty.

But a few days ago, the brother and father of the victim filed a lawsuit in an attempt to block any $$$$ compensation for Trustcott on the basis that he was not declared innocent of the crime.

We know a girl that is not married to a soldier but is living in military housing that is at Fort Polk and paying rent to her friend. I think this is wrong and have searched the internet looking for this is fraud. She is sleeping all over the neighborhood and there is a small child with her. As a taxpayer I am so upset. Any suggestions.

I was doing a paper on education last week and read that the Los Angeles County Unified School District is 73.2% Hispanic. With this type of racial growth and the immigration (legal and illegal) flux from Mexico, Central and South America, won't the U.S. be considered a Latin American Nation soon?

Is it by serving for a long time? Or managing to kill a lot of enemies (say, in Iraq)? Or managing to save a leader? How does it work?

Do we have to start a rumor that he has a treasure of gold in his cave like the Lost Dutchman Mine? Maybe that would spur some action.

Would it be legal for someone from Antiqua to set up an internet shop offering music, movies, games, etc?

With unrest growing towards Islamic extremists and various immigrants do you ever fear that support for radical political parties may increase to a level that would allow them to have some level of power or even take charge?

I'm suspicious the age limits are there for people re-enlisting.

I'm 25 now (gonna be 26 in June '08) and thinking of joining the US Navy or the Coastguard (preferably the reserves) for the first time. Am I too old?

I just don't see any other way of paying for my college tuition. It took me over 4 years to get my associate degree from a community college while working and in the meantime I messed up my credit. I don't think anyone will give me a loan with a decent interest rate now so I just don't see any other option to finishing college other than the GI Bill. Please help!

So your good Earl received a letter through the post informing me I had won some Spanish lottery I have never heard of...all I had to do to claim my winnings was send off my bank details...yeah right...
It is obviously a scam.
I'm sure I heard once that you can report these things to help stop them. Citizens advice? Trading standards? What do you reckon, hmmmm?

It's time to stop the Bush/Clinton Dynastys! We don't need George H Bush and Bill Clinton sitting around having a conversation that could go like this. Bush. I was president before you. Clinton. Yes, but I was a two term president.
Bush. Well, my son was a two term president. Clinton. Yes, but my wife is president now.
Time for it to end!
Time to turn the page of history, time for a new start and new leadership!

DES MOINES, Iowa - Mike Huckabee, a Republican relying on support from religious conservatives in Thursday's hard-fought presidential caucuses, on Sunday stood by a decade-old comment in which he said, "I hope we answer the alarm clock and take this nation back for Christ."

Do Americans want a "Christian" nation? Will the Constitution have to be rewritten?

There is this guy at work in his 40s. Because he did a lot of drugs in the past, his brain is pretty fried. He says very unprofessional things to customers all the time, asking questions that are none of his buisiness. He doesn't even do his job and walks at an old lady pace all the time. He is incapable of even the simplest of tasks. He stands around most of the time just watching other people work. People are nice to him because they can tell he is pretty much a self made retard. The only reason he got hired in the first place is because of Axcess (or something) it's like a vocational rehab thing. He clearly has no future in his career and he needs to go. Even if he is somewhat protected by this "Give stupid brain fried druggies jobs" program, is there something I can do to make management see that he needs to go? Oh yeah, and he smokes in the bathroom which is very much against company policy.

I want to work in the Air Force as a non-combatant. I'm currently in ROTC and am studying for a EE/CS degree. Is there anyway to guarantee this?

I was told by my detachment advisor that he could offer me a scholarship in regards to EE, which guarantees me the job. Is this true?

I am wondering if B-52 Bombers have been deployed in Australia
during the 70's or 80's. Maybe I am confusing this with USAF F-111's. Or maybe nothing was deployed at all. Perhaps flights came in from Guam. Anyway if any knowledge please let me know. Thanks.

The Freedom of Information act has brought some documents to light which suggest that prison camps (similar to the Japanese internment camps of WWII) were considered in the 1950's.

Now there is a video circulating on the 'net about a possible prison camp being constructed in Beech Grove, Indiana.

Possibly true? (Please cite sources and explain)
