This may seem like a dumb question, but it seems to me that there is some element of risk here.
[Yes, I also saw the movie "CRASH" a while back--well I actually only saw the first half... Anyhow, even in this movie it is acknowledged that there is a risk factor here.]
Btw, I've always wondered this (wayyy before I saw the movie--the movie didnt influence me at all). * I referenced the movie as a self-check to make sure I'm not being a tiny bit paranoid, lol. *

Question:
Do you trust a locksmith to install both the deadbolt and doorknob lock to your home's main enterance?

Also, how much should I expect to pay for this service (an average ballpark figure)?

My boss was hired a few years ago in midst of scandal at our school district. He was hired as a consultant to fix our problems - typical government solution - and did not go through typical job screening. Turns out at the time he was a consultant because he lost his job. He had been put on administrative leave and was being investigated by his former employer for embezzlement. Unfortunately for us, no one here knew of his past because all the media attention was back in his former home. I uncovered the mess after discovering over a period of time, major inconsistencies in his stories and behavior. I lived with it for more than one year without saying a word. At some point my boss caught on that I knew - which led to harassment and documented threats. I kept quiet even after I had decided to leave. I blew the whistle in media after I uncovered he had a felony arrest warrant for failing to appear to answer two counts of embezzlement and two counts special circumstances.

The reason I ask this question is because David Hicks has been held for 5 years without trial in Cuba.The reason why I ask this is because an American also picked up in Afghanistan was given a smack on bum and sent home.Very few people believe that Hicks will get a fair trial the only fair trial he would get is in his own country.
He could get the death penalty BY A RIGGED COURT.

Regarding the death penalty, I have a question I need answered.

If a person knows what effect will result from their action, and they commit that action, are they not responsible for the result?

Our laws are written down so that we may know what the punishments are if we break them. For example, I know that if I rob a store, I will likely face jail time. I know that if I speed in my car, I will likely get a fine. Also, I know that (in my state at least) if I murder someone I may face the death penalty. If I know that this penalty may result, and yet I still murder someone, do I have to accept the penalty?

I understand that the death penalty is far from perfect. And, it really upsets me that innocent people have been executed.

However, please answer my specific question.

from a yahoo news story:
A Welsh man who was banned from paying a 650-pound (965-euro, 1,263-dollar) court debt in bronze one pence pieces said he will pay up, but using silver five pence pieces instead.
Michael Rees tried to pay the fine and costs for a careless driving conviction -- which he disputes -- with 40-pound-a-month instalments of 4,000 pennies, which is Britain's smallest denomination.
The 41-year-old said he had paid 540 pounds of the debt with wheelbarrow-loads of pennies until the fines office at Pontypridd Magistrates Court in south Wales refused to accept any more.
They cited the 1971 Coinage Act, which says bronze payments of more than 20 pence do not have to be accepted as legal tender.
Unemployed Rees agreed at a court hearing Wednesday to finish paying his debt at five-pounds-a-week in silver five pence pieces.

Ok I have a big problem. I live in a house that is really bad. I am basically scared everyday whether or not I am going to get the crap beaten out of me. I sleep on the couch because I have no bedroom. And well, alot of other really bad stuff. I am 17. Can I move out of my parents house now? I live in florida. I want to just move out without calling DCF into it or anything. Do any of you know anything about all that? I need parental consent to be emancipated...which I think is kind of pointless considering what the point of the law is. Help anyone?

To give a brief overview: Mom is in TX with physical custody, Dad is in PA w/ partial physical custody. Mature 12 year old daughter wants to move back to PA (where most of the relatives on both sides of the family live) to live with her dad. Mom says no - refuses to even speak to Dad about it - says she made her decision and it's over and done. What are Dad's / daughter's rights? Daughter loves her family in TX, just wants the chance to be with her dad.

If the Father refused to sign the acknowledgment of paternity can he later come back and demand a paternity test so he may get full/partial custody? I dont beleive since he is not on the birth certificate that he does not have legal rights at all. Please dont get me wrong, I dont want to keep my child from his father. I just dont beleive he is mentally stable to be around us and I can support my son on my own. I am not after money, I just want him out of my life. With him it is not about his Son, it is about a fight for control and he is constantly threatning me. I just think he should seek mental help befor trying to be in our lives. He is just a dirty fighting vile man and I want to know how far he can take it if I dont file for child support.

I am interested in getting a law passed in Massachusetts which would ban the practice of consumer rebates. Many of us feel they are getting out of control and we do not like having to tie our money up until we receive the rebate of which somtimes we do not get back. There fore the rebate amount should be given at the time of the sale. So the question is how and what would it take to get such a law passed?

my boyfriend had a baby with this woman about 2 years ago...the baby was a result of a one night stand he started seeing me after being just my best friend for about 6 months..she just went crazy she broke into our house stole my id, social security card, our cell phones cut all the phone lines behind the face plates we had gallons of drinking water in our house she put bleach in the water, and turned the stove on just so the gas was pouring out ( Imagine if we had lit a match ) & forged his name on checks/ custody papers she also called the police and made it look like he broke into her house we decided we needed to move out of state to get away

he hasnt seen or talked to her or the baby in a year, she is getting child support she wants him to see the baby, she said she has to know where he lives/moves to because of child support purposes is this true? does he have to pay child support if she took the baby from him & he will never see it again?
