One of my friends in deep trouble has Quit Claimed her interest in some real property to an LLC that a friend of hers controls. She is in default big time on her mortgage. I presume that her friend's LLC will be sued by the mortgage company along with the friend, is this correct?

I was fired from my job as a security officer. I can't seem to get hired on by anyone for inhouse security. I can get hired on by another contract company, however not with a pernament post, I'd be working different sites & different shifts everytime day, which I refuse to do as gas cost, cost to keep licensing current, etc. it doesn't make no money to pay bills with, as every cent I make pay just to keep working (done it before). Other than working in pizza places thats the only other work I've done. Do to physical limitations (health probs & bad back) I'm unable to do manual physical labor. Even if I could get disability, it wouldn't be for several years, after being denied several times & having to hire an attorney (my dad had to & that was with being on oxygen 24/7). Even than I wouldn't make much as I'm only 23 years old & havent paid in much because of it. I need money for bills now & need steady income. How can I go about this?

What should I do? Because they are both at war over domain usage, neither of them can sue me right? One would have to prove that I was infringing on their rights. Youtube, Utube, Youtubeclassic. One is a video site, another is a pipe manufacturer but I'm unsure of what I will do with mine with the sudden news.

Why would someone want to do drug court if they are already in AA and have a sponsor and are on the right track and the senctencing has been postponed now for 3 months and the person is 3 months sober and just wants to be put the whole thing behind them - wouldn't 30 dys in jail be the best solution?

Why were the charges dropped against John Mark Karr? If they have more evidence, could they bring more charges against him? Sure, the USA has a "double-jeopardy" law but is there a way around it?

My former boss took it upon herself to call my new boss and say " I wouldn't hire her because of the health issues she has had in the past". Isn't that illegal to try and keep my working for a new employer? My old boss has a vendetta against me, and now she has tried to keep my from gaining new employment. My new boss did not call her. She heard through the grapevine that I was offered a job at a new company. I think this opens up the possibility for a law suit. What grounds do I sue under?

I had asked a question earlier about noisy neighbors squealing their trucks on purpose (see here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiM8EQW781CPCTqLGy6Jd3Dsy6IX?qid=20070720175553AAfgS7 ). The good thing is, 2 cops cars came and I guess told them to stop, but they literally left less than 5 minutes ago and they continue to do it! I don't mean to sound like a taddler, but it's extremely annoying to listen to. What should I do?

My opinion:
Marijuana is no worse than alcohol. A person who is high on marijuana many times seems to me more in touch with reality than someone who is intoxicated.
Marijauna has some health benefits, and is proven to help with nausea.
Marijuana tends to make people calm and happy while some other drugs tend to have the opposite affect.
Smoking mariuana doesn't hurt anyone. I think we should treat marijuana as we do alcohol (must be over 21, don't smoke while pregnant, no smoking and driving, ect.)

I feel that marijuana has a bad rep because people associate it with the ***** community which is completely racist. I feel we should be beyond "Reefer Madness" and that the people should begin to accept the truth about marijuana.

Even if you don't smoke marijuana, would you be upset if it were made legal. Do you think you would vote yes to make marijuana legal (with the same restrictions as alcohol.) Thank you for your opinion.

and I have asked my job for a settlement. They have agreed on a settlement. Now I am unsure of if I want to leave my job. I think I should get a note from my doctor getting a release to go back to full duty. Do you think they will fire me if I stay and not get a settlement now?

DEAR,
I AM THE HEAD OF ACCOUNTS AND AUDIT DEPARTMENT OF BANK OF AFRICA,
OUAGADOUGOU . I DECIDED TO CONTACT YOU AFTER A CAREFUL THOUGHT THAT YOU MAY BE CAPABLE OF HANDLING THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION WHICH I EXPLAINED BELOW;IN MY DEPARTMENT WE DISCOVERED AN ABANDONED SUM OF $30.M. US DOLLARS (THIRTY MILLION.) IN AN ACCOUNT THAT BELONGS TO ONE OF OUR FOREIGN CUSTOMER WHO DIED ALONG WITH HIS ENTIRE FAMILY IN 1998 IN A PLANE CRASH.
SINCE WE GOT INFORMATION ABOUT HIS DEATH, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING HIS NEXT OF KIN TO COME OVER AND CLAIM HIS MONEY BECAUSE WE CANNOT RELEASE IT UNLESS SOMEBODY APPLIES FOR IT AS NEXT OF KIN OR RELATION TO THE DECEASED AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING GUIDELINES BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE LEARNT THAT HIS SUPPOSED NEXT OF KIN(HIS SON AND WIFE) DIED ALONGSIDE WITH HIM AT THE PLANE CRASH LEAVING NOBODY BEHIND FOR THE CLAIM .
IT IS THEREFORE UPON THIS DISCOVERY THAT I AND OTHER OFFICIALS IN MY DEPARTMENT NOW DECIDED TO MAKE THIS BUSINESS PROPOSAL TO YOU AND RELEASE THE MONEY TO YOU AS THE NEXT OF KIN (WE WANT TO PRESENT YOU AS HIS BUSINES ASOCIATE )TO THE DECEASED FOR SAFETY AND SUBSEQUENT DISBURSEMENT SINCE NOBODY IS COMING FOR IT AND WE DON'T WANT THIS MONEY TO GO INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED BILL.
THE BANKING LAW AND GUIDELINE HERE STIPULATES THAT IF SUCH MONEY REMAINED UNCLAIMED AFTER SEVEN YEARS, THE MONEY WILL BE TRANSFERRED INTO THE BANK TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED FUND. THE REQUEST OF FOREIGNER AS NEXT OF KIN IN THIS BUSINESS IS OCCASIONED BY THE FACT THAT THE CUSTOMER WAS A FOREIGNER AND A BURKINABE CANNOT STAND AS NEXT OF KIN TO A FOREIGNER .WE AGREE THAT 30% OF THIS MONEY WILL BE FOR YOU AS FOREIGN PARTNER, IN RESPECT TO THE PROVISION OF A FOREIGN ACCOUNT, 10 % WILL BE SET ASIDE FOR EXPENSES INCURRED DURING THE BUSINESS AND 60% WOULD BE FOR ME AND MY COLLEAGUES.
THERE AFTER I AND MY COLLEAGUES WILL VISIT YOUR COUNTRY FOR DISBURSEMENT ACCORDING TO THE PERCENTAGES INDICATED. THEREFORE TO ENABLE THE IMMEDIATE TRANSFER OF THIS FUND TO YOUR ACCOUNT AS ARRANGED,YOU MUST APPLY FIRST TO THE BANK AS NEXT OF KIN OF THE DECEASED CUSTOMER. UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR REPLY, I WILL SEND TO YOU BY FAX OR EMAIL THE TEXT OF THE APPLICATION. I WILL NOT FAIL TO BRING TO YOUR NOTICE THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS HITCH FREE AND THAT YOU SHOULD NOT ENTERTAIN ANY ATOM OF FEAR AS ALL REQUIRED ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE FOR THE TRANSFER.
I EXPECT THAT YOU CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY AS SOON AS YOU RECEIVE THIS LETTER.
HOPING TO HEAR FROM YOU IMMEDIATELY.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
ZAKARIA MARK
