Obama told one group of anti-gay people that he was 100% against gays and lesbians. But then to a group of gay and lesbian people he told them that he was supported them 100%. Can he really support both sides of the coin? And I am a republican.
I say if a guy can't make up his mind about what side he supports how can he run the country. Obama for president what are you nuts?

I heard of somebody getting sentenced for months in jail. Maybe about 90 days. Supposedly she only did 10% which was 9 days in Los Angeles county jail.
I also heard that it was 50-85% jail time now and that the law has changed?
I heard that she only served less time because it was a nonviolent crime.

IS ANY OF THIS TRUE?

Okay I thought of this name "Romantique Interiors" 5 years ago,and even bought a webdomain that since expired. Well, I was doing a search on it and I found 1 company that now is using that name, and they bought my old domain I let go.

I searched the trademark office, and no one has registered this name, so if I purchase a trade mark will I be able to tell them "this is my name"?

hello, my freind and i were at the driving range and his rented driver broke. he was not horse playing or anything and they charged him $15 fr the club. they have a sign, but it is not in plain view, nor did they explain their policy upon rental. there are no cameras viewing the range, is he liable to replace the club? i told them that this was just a cost of running a business, but of course they didnt see it my way. i asked for them to mail me a copy of the invoice for them t send it to get it repaired, if they dont send it do we gett the money back?

President Bush is allowing a few of his top aides to testify before congress, however they will not be testifying under oath. Is it illegal to lie to a congressional committee and if so what is the argument about. Are you bound by the law to tell the truth to a congressional committee whether you are under oath or not?

This question refers to US Code: Title 18, section 1462 ( http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode18/usc_sec_18_00001462----000-.html
), as well as similair laws in the same chapter ( http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode18/usc_sup_01_18_10_I_20_71.html )

My question is, within that law and the other similair ones in the same chapter, are the definitions of "obscene," "lewd," "lascivious," "filthy," etc. synominous with obscenity under the Miller Test?

Thefore, if an item does *not* meet the Miller Test for obscenity, however objectionable it may be, it is exempt from being classified as "lewd," "filthy," etc. and therefore is *not* subject to the limits and penalties of these obscenity laws, correct?

I would guess so, as the title of the laws refer specifically obscenity. However, since I'm presently doing my best to avoid sick smut and excercise discretion in my internet surfing, I shouldn't worry about this. =)

Thank you in advance to anyone who replies. =)

OK in march of 2005 he was arrested for CDS: POSSESSION-MARIHUANA when he went to court in April of 2006 the judge gave him 1 year PBJ to be up in April of 2007. In May of 2006 he was arrested again for CDS MANUF/DISTRIBUTE then went to ocurt for that January 2007 where he received 3 years probation. In February of 2007 they issued a violation of probation warrant for him. Then when he went to see his Probation Officer in March 2007 they arrested him for the warrant. He has been locked up since 3/22/07 with no bail until he goes to the violation of probation hearing. The hearing is scheduled for 4/4/2007 what will most likely happen becuase again the probation is up on 4/12/07. I know i can ask his family but I am his son's mother and I guess since we are not getting along they do not want to tell me anyhting. I just want to know for my son as far as who will support him. Serious people only

How it is possible that you and I are sitting in a room playing cards. I am actively sucking on a cigarette, you do not smoke.

How is it possible that what I exhale is worse for you, the non smoker, than it is for me. Not only am I sucking it into my lungs, I am also sitting in the room with you. How is it possible that it is worse for you?

Can an employer impose a condition on their employees that they must agree to pay for a Q fever injection and have the expenses deducted from their wages, before they will officially offer them a job?

My partner worked in a local abbitoir, and he was forced to pay for his injection out of his wages.

I thought that an employer can NOT make an employee pay for medical expenses which would effect their health or safety in the workplace?

Can someone show me some info on OH&S laws regarding medical costs for employees?

I know it would be tax deductable, but he wasnt even given a receipt for the injection.

Shouldnt the employer pay for this type of expense, and claim it in their own taxes??

MUSLIM pupils at a secondary school in northeastern Nigeria beat a teacher to death today after accusing her of desecrating the Koran.

Oluwatoyin Olusase, a Christian, was adjudicating an Islamic Religious Knowledge exam at the school in Gombe state when the incident occurred.

The students attacked her outside the school compound after the exam and killed her, witnesses said.

It was not clear exactly what Olusase had done that angered the students.

Police confirmed the killing and said their intervention had prevented the incident from turning into a riot.

"We have received information that a female teacher has been lynched by her students. We are investigating the report," Gombe state police commissioner Joseph Ibi said.

I've tried briefly finding something about this, to no avail.

I want to know if this is some half-baked add-on from a more recent administration, or if our Forefathers drafted this into our Constitution.

It sounds like pristine Pork Barrel to me, regardless of who is President.

NO partisan blabber here - Stay on the specific topic, please!
