Open Question: As a custodial parent, can I be extradited back to FL for violation of visitation?
I have a court order stating I cannot leave the county (due to another brilliant unconstitutional Florida law) with my minor children. The non-custodial parent only has visitation. I have lost my job and home. Now I have an opportunity to keep my kids and I alive and well fed in another state with a new job opportunity. If I move despite the county judge's order (remember I am the custodial parent), can I be extradited back to Florida if the non-custodial parent presses charges??? Help! (more...)

Open Question: Are there any really good reasons for having children?
Don't get me wrong everyone has the right to decide if they want to have children. My issue is that my husband and I are in our 30's and have no children. Our families keep pressuring us to have children. We have discussed it and have even considered adoption, which was not well received by our families. I believe that any parent has the responsibility to provide a loving and supportive home to their children, and to raise their children to be a productive part of society. I believe in nurture over nature and think that you can love and raise any child whether they are biologically yours or not. With the hundreds of children worldwide growing up in deplorable conditions, with no choices or chances for a future what is the problem with international adoption. All other reasons for having biological children I find are very selfish and unrealistic. Children do not always love you forever and you can not guarantee that all your "good" traits will be passed to your children based on biology. So really is there any reason to have children at all, especially your own biologically. Especially if you have the means to provide a child that would not have these same opportunities a wonderful life? I don't mean to say that all people who decide to have children (biologically theirs) are selfish it just seems that all the reasons given to me are shallow. Such as they are your blood and carry on the family name. Or that they will have all the family characteristics. Or they will love you forever because you are their only parents. I don't want to sound negative about having children either. I just think that it is a very big responsibility and deserves alot of consideration. The above reasons are the main ones given by our families. I think children are wonderful and a fulfilling part of a family. But I also believe that if you chose to adopt or not have children then that is your choice as well. I just wanted to know if anyone had a unique position or idea on having children (more...)

Open Question: Rules of the journalism on the Middle East?
Rules of the journalism on the Middle East? Twelve rules of writing the mass media when it comes to the Middle East Anonymous text, circulated by the Internet 1) In the Middle East is always the Arabs that attack first and always that Israel defends itself. This defense is called reprisal. 2) The Arabs, Palestinians or Lebanese do not have the right to kill civilians. This is called "terrorism." 3) Israel has the right to kill civilians. This is called "legitimate defense." 4) When Israel kills civilians in mass, the Western powers claim that is more measured. This is called "reaction of the international community." 5) The Palestinians and the Lebanese do not have the right to capture Israeli soldiers from inside military installations with sentinels and quarter. This is called "Kidnapping of defenseless people." 6) Israel has the right to kidnap any time and anywhere as many Lebanese and Palestinians want. Currently there are more than 10 thousand, 300 of whom are children and a thousand are women. Is not needed any proof of guilt. Israel has the right to maintain kidnapped prisoners indefinitely, even if they are elected democratically by the Palestinian authorities. This is called "Prison of terrorists." 7) When you mention the word "Hezbollah" is the same mandatory sentence contain the words "supported and financed by Syria and Iran." 8) When you mention "Israel" is forbidden any mention of the words "supported and financed by the U.S.." This may give the impression that the conflict is uneven and that Israel is not in danger of existence. 9) When referring to Israel, are prohibited words "Occupied Territories", "UN resolutions", "Violations of human rights" or "Geneva Convention". 10) Both the Palestinians as the Lebanese are always "cowardly", who hide among the civilian population, which "does not want." If they sleep in their homes, their families, so it gives the name of "Covardia." Israel has the right to destroy bombs and missiles with the neighborhoods where they are sleeping. This is called the High Accuracy Action Surgical. " 11) The Israelis speak better English, French, Spanish and Portuguese to the Arabs. So they and the support that should be interviewed and have more opportunities than the Arabs to explain the present Rules of Writing (1 to 10) to the general public. This is called "journalistic neutrality." 12) All persons who are not in accordance with the Rules of Writing above are "anti-Semitic Terrorist High Periculosidade." Know any more? Sorry for the English translator of google, but I am doing course in English. Nothing against your country, do not kill me, joke kkkkkkk. (more...)

Open Question: Is renting out a home while in another state a good idea?
I live in california right now & looking to buy a home & move out of california but I'm not ready to make the move just yet. There are some pretty good opportunities I've seen in other states to buy a home. I want to buy it & just rent it out for the time being. But I've read that this can be a headache collecting rent & having to deal with the renters while in another state, but I've also heard that its not that big of a deal. I had someone tell me that he uses a real estate agency to collect the rent for a fee. This would be my first home. Should I wait or should I buy now? (more...)

Open Question: Will you please proofread my petition to my university's faculty? It will save my life. ?
I am writing a petition to my university's faculty, and I'd really like your comments/feedback/advice after reading it. All comments/advice/feedback are extremely appreciated!!! Thanks so much in advance! I respectfully request that the Faculty reconsider the decision of requiring me to withdraw from the program in which I am enrolled. The Faculty should heavily consider the position in which I am now placed after requiring me to withdraw from my program. Although I have undoubtedly not earned credit for two units throughout my first term at UW, I am deeply confident, and I guarantee, that I possess the perseverance, determination, motivation and competence to earn the credit for, and meet all academic requirements of, these two unearned units by the end of this current term. I attribute my previous term?s poor academic performance to the off-campus location at which I was living and the greatly dire circumstances it created. From the beginning of the term, I was required to take public transportation for an hour-and-half every time I was expected to be in class, while the vast majority of nearly all first-year students had the advantage of either living on residence, in a nearby off-campus location or at home surrounded with family support. I was not only far away from the support of my own home and family, but I was also far away from the university for which I left home. As a result of this great inconvenience, it was extremely difficult for me to not only have the time and means to study comfortably and efficiently, but it was also nearly impossible to stay focused on my academic interests, priorities and opportunities. I recall that I was always unable to attend extra help sessions anywhere on campus due to how far away I was from the university. This term, however, only if the opportunity is allowed, I now have the chance to redeem the unfortunate outcomes of my first-term experience. I am now living on residence and being close to all buildings around campus will undeniably greatly help in my success this term. My time will be managed much more efficiently as I will not waste copious amounts of time on public transportation every day. I will easily be able to attend all classes on time by living on residence. Now that I am living on campus, I certainly have the motivation to attend extra help sessions anywhere and anytime around campus. I will be much more capable of staying on top of all readings, homework and assignments throughout the term, and will consequently not only be much more familiar with test and exam material, but will have even more time for studying the material and reviewing it a second time. I am now also more familiar with general university life and the experience it offers, and will be much more likely to succeed in my academics now that it is my second term and living on campus. With my deep motivation, determination, competence and perseverance, along with living right on campus, I can safely say that I guarantee having eliminated the causes of last term?s academic performance and I am now able and willing to earn the required credits and academic requirements needed to pursue my degree and earn it. Despite the deeply inconvenient circumstances hindering my success throughout my first term, I am nonetheless able to understand, and have great respect for, the regulations attributed to academic standing implemented by the Faculty. However, I do passionately and deeply believe that there are extenuating circumstances which the Faculty should now consider when re-evaluating its initial decision. I respectfully ask that the Faculty also consider my plan for improvement this term when re-evaluating its initial decision and ultimately give me the permission and opportunity to remain at UW this term and for terms to come to be able to pursue the degree I have chosen to pursue.

As a result, I do ask the Faculty to reconsider its decision and essentially give me the permission to remain at UW this term and be able to pursue the rest of the degree I have chosen to pursue. Thank you a whole lot, bob_berwanger!! I deeeeeppplllyyyy appreciate everything you've written. Thank you so much. The major is biomedical sciences, and yes, usually they would put me in conditional standing until I pulled my grades back up, but they only do that if I failed a max. of 1.5 units. I failed 2 units, so at that point I'm required to withdraw for a year, apply for re-admission, then start all over. So yeah, I'm in a pretty ugly situation... but I sincerely really really thank you so much for all your advice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're basically saving my life. =) Thanks (again) Thanks a lot to you too, Szivesen!!!!!! I'm going to use what you've advised as well, and I really deeply appreciate all your help!!!!!!!! Thank you guys so much. =) I hope it'll pass through in the end. Opiniononly: You seem to be very disrespectful with that tone of yours. It also seems you don't realize that you're not answering this question to condemn me for something or the other... Listen here then. Couldn't you have responded more respectfully? Couldn't you have pulled your manners together before typing up your response? Ha! Just because I wrote "the faculty failed to consider" you're taking it as a cue to defend yourself. Perhaps you'd "zero in" on that statement because you want to sit around all day feeling grand about being "VP, admissions and advising, faculty" and that the faculty doesn't fail to consider. Well let me tell you this: the faculty DOES fail to consider. And you can't change the fact, whoever you are. So as disrespectful as this sounds: Shut. Up. I changed that phrase way before you posted your little loser of a comment anyway, but I just thought I'd give you what you deserve in terms of respect so that YOU take responsibility for your actions.

Open Question: Women, have you ever try to stand still & rejecting men?
I decided to never go out with men... It happened after a cute good looking man with big ego... he told me I am an idiot for not working hard for him, he wanted me to get a nice hairstyle, wear nice clothes, and learn how to cook and all. But I don't want to work hard for him, I wanted to work hard on education and all.... So when men asked me out, I would say no. And they keep harassing me over and over again... I just stood still... and watching men throwing themselves at me... They blocked every opportunity and don't want me to go to film school and learn things.... They don't want me to have friends. They don't want me to work... They followed me everywhere... Even watching me on the internet. So I stayed at home, lock the door.... I haven't been out the house in 6 days... Trying to stay away from men. I can't believe that they are so aggressive this way. And when the garbage needs to be taken out... I just go out the Apartment hallway and saw a MAN (oh no) and quickly put my garbage in the chute and rush back to my apartment room... The MAN was holding up a thick wallet to my face... I don't know if he thinks I am a garden tool or think I'm money grubber.. I just went back to my apartment and close the door and locked it. Unbelievable... So women, have you ever try to avoid men? I'm not even pretty. I'm ugly. Why don't men just let me have the film career... then I will date them... and making 12 babies with them... geez. (more...)
