Open Question: Names for a detectives sidekick?

It was the beginning of the end for Jones’ youngest victim. A girl aged just 13 had been left at home by her parents, and little did they know that they were never going to look their daughter again... “Mum, when will you be back? Where are you going? Wh...” “Calm down,” Said the girl’s Mum interrupting her, “We’ll be back soon, you’ll be fine.” “It’s not me I’m worried about. It’s you. I am worried you’re gonna do something, well, stupid.” “I promise everything will be fine. We’ll be back before you know it. Just try and receive some snooze and don’t spend the whole night worrying.” And with that her mom and dad left the home. Leaving Lizzie to the fate that was set in solid rock. 3 hours later there was a knock at the door. Lizzy only answered it because she was sure it was her Mum and Dad, she wouldn’t have answered if she knew it was him. She rushed to the door. Only to find a odd, middle aged man standing on her doorstep. “Ummmmm... Who are you?” Inquired Lizzie with a shiver; going down her spine. “I was sent by someone who thought: you needed a chat.” “Who are you?” Said Lizzie with a sterner tone in her voice, theman looked at her with the eyes of a man who would never dare to kill. “I will tell you when you let me in.” He had a voice that you knew you could never mess with. No arguing. No turning back. Lizzie led the odd man into her kitchen and made him a drink. “Now tell me who you are.” Said Lizzie as she placed their drinks on the table. “I am the last person you are ever going to look” Lizzie froze rock still, rock dead. Her life flashed before her, good times and the bad, the best and the worst. The next thing she heard was a gunshot, and tragically the last thing, she ever heard. The phone rang in Matthew Stark’s office. “Hello. Matthew Stark. Detective, best in the business.” “We need you to investigate in the case of Lizzie Elizabeth. She was killed by Marcus Jones. A well known assassin, but what we need to know is who hired him.” Said the man at the end of the phone. Stark could tell he was serious and that their couldn’t be a repeat of last time. “Ok but I need time. Time and evidence. Time, evidence and suspects. Time, evidence, suspects an...” “Ok, I receive it,” Said the man on the phone who you could tell was getting more and more frustrated, “Just go to this address and you receive everything you need” Stark jotted down the address and got in his car as quickly as he could. Keep calm. That’s every Stark could hear in his head. Repeating its self over and over again, like a never ending circle that he needed to break. As he reached the scene of the crime Stark knew that this wasn’t an ordinary burglary. He knocked on the door only to find the home as deserted as it must have been on the night of the murder. There were no signs of a break in, no smashed glass or forced windows. As if the victim had let the murderer in. There was no evidence, no clues. How was Stark meant to work this out on his possess? He would have to phone I need a name for the sidekick of my detective. He needs to be dopey and dippy but has to be able to work things out. Cj thanks but i think that it inapropriate for a class project

Open Question: Should I tell the police that these solicitors kept insisting I get in their car?

These two solicitors that came to my door today made me nervous a bit. They were trying to sell me magazine subs (at $50 a pop). and when I told them I did not have checks or cash on me (which is true) they told me that I should receive in their car to go to the local gas station to receive the money using my debit card. I told them that I could not leave my home (several times) and they kept saying "it only takes 2 seconds" or "the neighbor down the road did it" and I kept saying "I can't leave, even for a minute". He still kept insisting I do it, and I was just like "sorry, no". He looks dirty, nice of like he was on crack (because he was talking real quick and his eyes were twitching and he was very impatient with me while I was looking over the magazines they offered. I'm a 24 year old girl, home alone. I'm a bit frightened, because when I told them no, they just nodded like they were mad and walked off.... I want to tell either the police or find the company who hired these people, because this was just too much for me... and don't tell me I shouldn't be worried. You never know, people receive raped and murdered every the time because they let their guard down. So would it be wise to let the police know of these folks? I don't want to call 911, because it is not an emergency. I just want the police informed of these guys in the neighborhood. What nice of number should I call?? What can I or should I do?

Resolved Question: I think her boyfriend is a dope....now she won't talk to me?

My mom in law asked what I thought about my sister in laws boyfriend. They have been together a little over a year & I have met him twice. I started by telling her I think he is a dope! The first time I met him he shook my hand like a 5 year old little girl would. He is 26 almost 27 years old. Still lives with his parents. He doesn't have have a 40 hour a week job. He works 2 places part time (in the summer when they call) He does not possess his possess car. He drives his mom's car who has cancer. When we went to dinner he wore sweat pants & hoodie, not even jeans. Even though they have been together a year he makes my sister in law pay for her possess meal. He sits at home & watches sports none cease. At dinner my husband was making tiny talk & said about putting on breaks on his truck, the boyfriend said he doesn't know how to change is possess tire. (I can change a tire, change my possess oil & put on breaks with little help) His mom went & ran her mouth told his sister in law I thought he was a dope. After a few nasty texts his sister won't talk to me. Should I let it go OR say sorry? But really I think he's a dope & a loser! I really wish she breaks up with him & doesn't marry him because I know if & when they receive a home or cars it will be a guilt trip for my husband to arrive fix them because they can't afford to hire some one. To me a man should be able to do basic car & home improvement stuff with no problem. & there is no reason why he should let a girl pay for her possess meal! My husband still pays at dinner even though its a joint checking account. He has always paid the last 8 years! If we made plans for me to pay I gave him my money before hand. A little back round info....she is a 22 year old college student. Her old brother (my husband) is 25. We are married, possess our possess home, Move out before the age of 19, have a baby on the way. possess 3 cars. These are the things I expect from others too.

Open Question: What can I do about private student loan debt?

I have two private student loans; one is $26,000 and the other is $12,000. I pay $200 and $50 respectively, on each loan. I have done the calculations and it will take me around 60 years to pay these loans off. After college, It took me a long time to find a job, and when I finally got a job out of pure luck, the job only pays $14 per hour. The option to receive a better paying job isn't really an option right now since no employers will hire anyone without any experience (which is me). I am drowning in private loan debt, I also have federal loans but there's nothing I can do about them so I don't even talk about them. I had no idea that private loans could be this bad; I grew up learning that student loans weren't really a bad thing; and that college was a good choice, HA! I barely make enough money to pay my student loans, rent, car payment, other bills. Keep in mind--I DONT EVEN HAVE MY possess PLACE!! I have to resort to living in a 5 bedroom home with 5 other morons. The option to "pay more" each month is not an option. I have no money left over after my bills are paid. I feel like I am stuck and I will never receive out. Can anyone offer any useful information or help? I am pathetically desperate.

Open Question: 23224 (a) v.c. under 21 possession alcohol?

I'm 17, and still driving with a provisional license. Last night I was driving with 3 other kids in the car, and 3 forties of beer in the car.

Open Question: Can anyone help me solve these word problems?

I have to solve these problems using systems of equations and inequalities, but I can't figure these particular 3 out. Here they are: The ratio of boys to girls at a school dance was 5:3. There would have been an equal number of boys and girls if there had been three more girls and three fewer boys. How many boys were at the dance? Car-4-Hire charges $18 per day plus 15 cents per mile for the rental of a standard car. The same type of car at U-Rent-It costs $20 per day plus 10 cents per mile. What mileage results in equal rental charges for both cars? You are planning the menu for your restaurant. Each nigh you offer two different meals and have at least 240 customers. For saturday night, you plan to offer roast beef and teriyaki chicken. You expect that fewer customers will order the beef than will order the chicken. The beef costs you $5 per serving and the chicken costs you $3 per serving. You have a budget of at most $1200 for meat for Saturday night. Write a system of linear inequalities that shows the various numbers of roast beef and teriyaki chicken meals you could make for Saturday night Hint: There are 5 inequalities that represent this situation).

Open Question: How does my plans for the future sound?

Hello right now I'm am sixteen years old, I dropped out of high school. Well not really I dropped out and I am currently being home schooled through the American School of Correspondence. Because the high school I was at was really ghetto and I really wasn't making any friends. Sure I do regret my decision now but I mean life is full of mistakes and the only thing you could do is fix them and carry on. I just really would like the chance to socialize again but I mean at that school it seemed like no one really wanted to be bothered and people were already set in their clicks. And I don't know if you guys know it or not but most ghetto people aren't the most friendly.Im going to receive a job soon I've been really searching for one. And keep up for a car like any other teenagers dream.I plan to finish my homeschool and go to Triton College. Its a community college but it isn't bad. I don't really look the point of getting thousands of dollars in loans, just to go to a college I don't really need. And having to pay them back for the next twenty years. After I'm 18 I will search for a job with comcast they pay 17 bucks an hire right off the bat and a few family members work there. While I'm still in college, I will keep up for my restaurant, because the only thing I need to pay for is gas and cell phone and rent for my mom. Which is a lot cheaper than trying to be every independent and getting an apartment, when I could keep money. And I will be able to receive financial aid that will cover every the the college expenses. Because thats what my sister does. After I leave college I will still work at comcast. I will open my restaurant and with the money I saved. I will work both jobs at the same time.And also do weddings on the side where I do photography. Which is a good 800 bucks each wedding. And the relax is history hopefully receive married have kids move downtown buy a home. So how does it sound I have other goals but this is the most realistic like wanting to be an actor but I know the chances are very slim so I won't bother.

Open Question: How to travel between hostels in England?

I plan on visiting England for a week or so in April, and plan on staying at hostels the entire time. However, since I'm 20, I don't believe car hire will be an option. I don't look any trouble getting to Oxford, but I also want to go to Edinburgh and places in Northumberland like Wooler and Kielder. Cab and bicycle hire I don't think will be much of a problem for getting around the local area at each hostel, but what would be the most efficient way of traveling between hostels, particularly the more remote ones?

NO. So, this time with the sims 4 i would like a mall and you have to have weather and stuff and like you need to wear seasonal clothes and you can like go murder people and stuff like the real world. you should also be able to hire people to build you stuff and be able to kill babies and toddlers. i know that sounds horrible, but its actually quite entertaining. anyway, there needs to be credit cards. also, teenagers should be able to move out. i mean like, alot of teenagers move out when they receive old enough. and like, you cant commit suicide. this game isnt even like the real world? do you know how many people kill people and them selves? and your kids be born with like disabilities or anything and that kinda makes raising kids boring. I think that kids should be able to have a mini car to steer around in like i did. and you can put in the chilly basements that or half underground and half over. there should also be chilly jobs like, well, idk.

Open Question: How do I destroy someone's business?

I have recently had some work done on my home and the contractor that I hired has pissed me off beyond belief. I know that I can't receive anything monetarily out of him, so I have decided to ruin his busines so he cant do to others what he did to me. I found this construction company on AngiesList so I thought he would be professional. The owner of the company is the person doing the work. I found out midway through the bathroom remodel that this guy has only been in business for 4 months and was a car detailer before starting his business. His works reflects this inexperience!!! The tile in my bathroom is crooked and now (2 months later), the tiles are falling off the walls. I have called him and called the BBB several times demanding that he fix these problems. He finally called me back and told me that I was a nit-picky b**** and that he is never setting foot in my home again. I don't have the money for a lawyer so I would very much like to destroy his business! Can you give me some ideas?

Open Question: how can I make fast cash!!??!?!?

my pal and I, who are both fifteen year old girls, really would like to make some extra money before summer. She is saving up to go to ireland by herself(which is where her grandparents live) and I am saving up for a car to receive to school. We are both very, very responsible. Both of us have jobs that pay minimum wage, but take up a lot of time and we have school as well. We cannot steer and we do not live close any walkable places to receive hired. We want some extra money and we will work for it as long as it doesnt require going to a bunch of different places(we know, that is difficult to ask) becuase our parents dont really want to steer us. We are both really good with kids, good with crafts, responsible(i am not just saying that, adults have told both of us that we are responsible and mature for our age), we receive good grades and we do not fool around. Some things that I am good at are making fancy cakes and writing and she is good at writing and spanish We have tried selling things and considering it is the dead of winter, outdoor activities are out of the question, along with a bunch of driving. I was thinking that we could maybe put together a kids's birthday party. Like set a rate for a cake, craft or two, face painting(I can do that as well) but I am not sure. Thank you!

Open Question: My cousin sold her car for drugs can she get it back?

My cousin (who is 20) has a drug problem and sold her lexus that her uncle bought her for drugs. I believe the car was in her name and the drug dealer completed every the paper work to be the legal owner of the car. My uncle has hired an attorney and is going to take the guy to court to receive the car back. I don't know the amount of oxycontin she received for the car but I'm sure it was well below the cost of the car. Would this deal fall below the category of unconscionability because it was so unfair? Would the court even consider overturning the deal because it involved drugs and was illegal?

Open Question: Does IRS look at delivery drivers for a restaurant as contractor or as an employee?

I am considering adding delivery services to my restaurant. Should I hire the delivery as contractor or as an employee? If I hire them as employee, I have to pay payroll taxes and may also be liable for their car accidents since they are my employee. If I hire them as contractor, then the payroll taxes and accident liability become hopefully less of an issue. How does IRS look at it?

If I hire them as employee, I have to pay payroll taxes and may also be liable for their car accidents since they are my employee. If I hire them as contractor, then the payroll taxes and accident liability goes away? How is it typically done in the industry, for example pizza or Chinese food delivery? As contractor, are they also subject to California minimum wage law (minimum wage does not include tips)?

Open Question: Why do my parents turn on me?

My parents are currently separated because my mom had to be taken away by the government. Now I understand they are both mad and hurt and I try to convince myself that this is why, but I end up crying in my bed each and every night. My dad does so much for me but he is constantly saying that I will end up exactly like my mom (who is physically abusive, why she got taken away) who he says is every about "money and stuff," and that I don't help him at every. Whenever something goes wrong with my brother and sister it's my fault automatically. The lady who helps us around the home, he loves to display his power over me in front of her and he purposely embarrasses me and hurts me and of course since she is hired by him she agrees. I help as much as I can, I try so difficult to mediate the fights between my siblings, I comfort him when he is openly unhappy and I agree with him and hear without complaining when he rants to me about my mom, even though it hurts. My mom used to blame me saying that I "betrayed the family" by calling the police although the past few weeks' visitations have been getting better. Also she used to blame me for not getting her remaining stuff from the main home (the one I live in with my brother, sister, and blaming dad, which my mom got taken away from) when I had absolutely no room in the car to bring stuff. Honestly I cannot handle being the scapegoat for both parents and now starting to hear that my brother and sister "hate me" too so I don't know what to do. I am sleepy of being yelled at, screamed at, blamed. I try so difficult to contain my frustration for the sake of them but every they do is keep on using me. Honestly school is my only real "home" now; I'd rather be there than arrive back to this place called hell every single night.

Open Question: What should I do? Anyone struggling please help!?

I'm struggling financially but I'm not sure what to do. I'll make the story short. Thanks for anyone taking their time to answer it. It is very appreciated! I was financially stable till I lost my job and went out of work for along time... I ended up losing my car (8k left), credit cards (2-4k), student loan (20k+) and I know I have some more debt somewhere I just lost wish over the months and really wanted to suicide but I know if I had a solid job I can receive back on my feet in a matter of years. I just don't know what to do? I just did my taxes getting about 1,200 back. I was thinking of doing bankruptcy. I know I cant clear my student loans. But my misc loans will be gone that would be maybe 15k? I'm not sure... Right now I'm working barely 20-25 hours a week at a cashier/deliver quick food place and 7.25 an hour. My rent is like 330 a month, insurance 70, phone 60, gas 60 a month and since I'm needy I eat at my work when I can and thats my only meal of the day... I barely make enough to survive I'm so afraid of my wages being garnished cause of the outstanding loans... What worries me is the 30 miles i put on my car a day I do for deliveries... I'm afraid of my car breaking down and I dont have money to fix it /cries... What I'm asking is what should I do? Should I hire an attorney to figure out my financial situation and how much debt i can really discharge? If i do bankrupt that should delay my student loans. but would that effect my chances of consolidation? (if your wondering, my loans are deferred but my private loans they wont work with me at every and has defaulted. my credit card and car loan has stopped communicating with me for months? no mail or calls at every.) So my choices are: 1. doing bankruptcy 2. putting that money aside for emergency (car breaking down, low on money for rent, sticky situation) keep towards moving in april when new manufacturing plant opens (not a guaranteed job but has high hopes for it) *special note* there is a company opening north of my area about 2 hours away from now and they are hiring 1200 employees in april. I was thinking i should just put that money to the side and wait for that job. Thank you everyone for answering and lending me your guidance. Its very appreciated. God bless (update) after reading some. yes my car got repo'd but i was able to find a job to secure some cash to make buy a car that i possess with title in hand. thanks for those who replied. i know its alot of debt but i was pulling in good income to pay it off within the two years. just things went sour thats every.

Open Question: Would you let your 15 year old son spend 3 months away from you?

about 4 years ago when my husband and i were going through marital problems, my then 10 year old son was having an extremely difficult time with it and my niece (who was 15/16 at the time) really invested time into him. She was on the phone with him every day, on free weekends she drove the hour trip and took him out for a day of fun or he went and spent the whole weekend at her home. They adopted each other that year as brother and sister not cousins, and still refer to each other as such. About 2 years ago she transferred to a University about 2 hours away to finish the last 2 years of her college degree. Since then they haven't talked on the phone as much but every school break she has she comes to visit him. I can tell my son really misses her a lot. Over time his behavior has also improved. every through middle school he was always in trouble with bad grades but starting out in high school he has done really well and has been on A/B honor roll twice since the start of school. This whole summer she (now 21 years old) is going to be staying in her college town and working, and my son (who will be 15) wants to go spend every summer with her. Her roommate is gone for the summer and she'd have an extra bedroom. Her manager has already agreed to hiring my son as a bag boy in the store and he would be working and saving money for a car (which he really wants to do), and they would just be able to spend the summer together and make up for lost time. I trust my niece with my son, she is responsible and not a party person, etc. My son listens to her and respects her, I have no doubt that the whole situation could work out, I just don't know... 15 is a little young to be gone for 3 months. He wants the job, but he could receive a job around here i'm sure and lift the same amount of money and then go and spend a couple weeks visiting her instead. then he could also spend time with his family. he's had behavior problems before but has greatly improved this year and is becoming quite trustworthy.. i just don't know. if this was your son, what decision would you make?

Resolved Question: Travelling to Canada at 18 - where to go, what to do?

Next year, tardy into the year (possible over Winter), I'll be going to Canada. Hopefully! I'm just a bit baffled with what to do and where to go. I'll be at 18 at this stage and won't be able to hire a car, so what's the best method of transport? How expensive is skiing and... do you have any other tips? I'm also wondering whether it's worth going down to the south of Canada and crossing over into America. Any info would be great! I'm an Aussie girl, despite the name :)

Open Question: I'm 19. Pregnant. Single. Lost my job. Wondering how can I make money!!?

I'm 36 weeks pregnant. I was fired from my job because i'm not married, pregnant, and was working at a Christian school. I've thought about selling MaryKay products because i'd be able to be home with the baby and that's important to me. My only problem there is I have ABSOLUTELY NO MONEY right now, the gas light is on in my car... and MaryKay has a start up fee of 100 dollars. I don't know where to go from here, I really don't. I've moved in with my dad, but can't keep asking him for money and favors on top of living here for free. I've tried really difficult to receive a job, i've had lots of interviews but no one will hire me because i'm 36 weeks pregnant...

Open Question: When should I start my search for a summer job?

Hello, I am a 15 year old high school sophomore. I need to receive a "real" job this summer besides babysitting because I am trying to keep up for my possess car. I will be 16 in may and I will receive my license then. Currently my only jobs have been babysitting 2-3 times a week for kids and infants 6 months and up, which I absolutely adore, but I need a steady income in order to afford a used car. I am interested in a job with kids because they are my passion so I was thinking of working in a daycare. Do daycares hire 16 year olds? Some of my babysitting clients told me I should be a nanny, but would anyone really hire a 16 year old nanny? I would adore that job more than anything but it seems unlikely. What other jobs with kids are available? Now for main question: When should I start calling around and going to stores with my resume and such? Summer vacation doesn't start until June so shod I start a couple months before? And what is the process for getting a job? Where do I start? Any advice about this would be greatly appreciated! I'm sorry I have so many questions, if you can at least answer 2 or 3 of them I would appreciate it! Thank you!

Even though I party 3-4 days a week, I do well in school. I dont receive pregnant. I have never had unprotected sex IN MY LIFE. I am cautious. My parents blame every of this because of my pal. Her mom lets her do every this stuff because as a child she had parents like mine.

I dont mind paying for my college because i have enough money. And i know i can bargain the price of the car to $250 and pay for it also, and rent a room for 500 dollars. My mom says that she doesnt want me to move out. And my dads is going to cease supporting me. THhey are basically giving me an ultimatum and threatening me. But i need to move out so that i can live my possess life. I want to do well in school and party. I can balance life. But they think that i have psycoligical problems because they found out that i drink and smoke weed. Im sleepy of living here. I havent partied for 2 weeks and im gaining weight.

Can i still receive hired as a CNA or any other medical job with a possession misdemeanor? On my record it shows that it was adjudication withheld Class A misdemeanor. I should be getting my case sealed but Medical can still look it when they do a background check. I have nothing else on my record.

I honestly don't do any drugs, i don't even smoke cigarettes. Ive always been a good kid, an athlete and a dependable worker.

Open Question: How long will it take to get into a new car after filing law suit?

I was hit by a red light runner last month, leaving my car totaled. Being that this happened over the winter holiday it took a few weeks to receive every the proper information and to hire an attorney. The other driver was clearly at fault but because everyone involved in the accident was rushed to the E.R. no one was found at fault at the scene. Since the other driver and his insurance company have refused to accept liability we have now filed a law suit and are waiting to hear back. As a student who does not have enough income to rent/finance a new form of transportation this whole thing has left me very anxious and clueless as to what to do. I have heard that this process may take anywhere from months to years. So, I am wondering if anyone can help me receive a better understanding of how long this process usually takes in a case such as mine. I have been borrowing different family member's cars to receive to and from school/work(two jobs). However I don't know how long I will be able to keep up with it every without my possess vehicle. I am not sure if I need to start saving as much as I can in hopes of buying a crappy used car for the time being(hoping it will last a few months without needing repair) Or if I need to try to take out some nice of loan to receive into a more reliable car that will last years? Any advice/personal experience is greatly appreciated being as I have never been in an accident this major and have NO IDEA what to do! Thank you!!! Forgot to mention I only have liability..

Open Question: Why cant I seem to get a girlfriend ?

I know its difficult to describe my personality on here, and none of you know me so you cant really give me an answer.... But here is my problem.. Im 25 years old now, going on 26 in a few months.. I have never once had a Girlfriend... never held a girls hand, never had sex, never cuddled, never gone to the movies... nothing... Its starting to really stress me out.. I want to be with someone and im sleepy of being a lone.. I have a Job but it only pays $9 an hour.. I have a Car... I steer a Jeep... My personality tho is pretty shy, however im extremely nice to any and everyone. nice hearted. Gentleman, Mature for my age. Some people describe me as Chivalrus.. I've always been like this even in middle and highschool... I was never with the crowed of people, always by myself or with a few friends like me.. Im not a hip, or party animal, im not a smoker drug user, tatoo crazed person.. It seems however every my co-workers my age and most people my age where i live are like this... They every got 3+ tatoo, they every party, they every giggle at stupid immature jokes... They every remind me of kids in middle and highschool.... Even tho most of them are 21+ I've tried asking girls out ranging from 18 to 25 years old and none of them are interested... Some want to just be friends, others turned out had boyfriends they neglected to tell me only after the fact of them using me for rides to work or around town... Hell one i am completetly falling in adore with and i mean i have never felt this way before is from Ukraine, she works where i work... absolutetly stunning, great accent, and giggly personality..

Then today when i was going to give her my number she mentioned she has a BF who drove her to work today... You know i dunno what to do anymore.... Im not the bar type of guy because im shy and sometimes i dont know what to say or how to introduce myself to stranger women in scenes like that... Im getting desprete to the point of maybe i should hire a escort receive laid, and maybe things will change.... but i keep saying no waste of money... wait you'll find someone.... but im at the point now where im just sleepy... Tired of working myself to the bone everyday to arrive home to nothing... in fact i think im getting depression now because of this... Why does it seem like every women/girls my age 18+ are every the same..

Open Question: I have a job interview with comcast, what exactly will it be like?

I saw their ad on craigslist, and so i just decided to send them an email showing my interest in working. I have a job interview next week. To be honest, im not very sure the things that a field associate does, or how the hiring process works. The reason i applied is because im looking for a job to pay for college and receive a car, but i dont want to work for mcdonalds or as a janitor. I feel that working for comcast can be fun, and the ad so no experience required, which is also great. Let me know thanks.
