I currently am working for another company in a temp for hire contract through Robert Half Technology in Chicago. The day I was accepted I asked them about medical insurance and both agents told me I had to wait 90 days before I can be covered. Well, 90 days went by and I submitted the forms to their insurers online. It says the coverage begins the monday after the deductions from my paycheck take place. Well, comes the pay period and no deductions. I call the insurance company and they said I was suppose to submit the applications within 30 days of being hired. I see no condition that I was suppose to do this and the agent who is taking care of me told me the wrong information. Now I want to know who I can report this to in the State of Illinois? Can anyone provide an answer please? Thank you in advance.

I got hooked on Gordon Ramsey's KITCHEN NIGHTMARES seasons 1 & 2 from streaming on Netflix. After each episode I viewed I Googled to see where they are now and every single one of them are closed (One restaurant owner committed suicide by jumping off the Brooklyn bridge.. geeze!!). Which leads me to the question "were there any of them that Chef Ramsey put on the right track and is now successful?" I am anxious to hear from those who may know.

I have an older Panasonic PV-GS120 mini DV camcorder where I am able to plug into a VHS player in order to convert my old family memories on VHS tape to a digital format. I have tapes going back as far as 1987 which the quality is still great. However, the PV-GS120 is still functioning but I am getting concerned of the age and if it dies I would like to continue converting from a different source. I have a lot of tapes I need to convert (no copyright material). Some with my mother who has passed away 2 year ago. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks for your reply..

According to : http://www.ready.gov/america/getakit/kit-print.htm... you can use it to treat water by using 16 drops of regular household liquid bleach per gallon of water. Is that really safe to drink that water if that is the case?

Definition of.. Scalper: someone who buys something and resells it at a price far above the initial cost; "he got theater tickets through a scalper"

Broker: An individual or firm which acts as an intermediary between a buyer and seller, usually charging a commission. For securities and most other products, a license is required. - So ...when did it become legal to be a licensed scalper?? Most tickets have something printed on them that selling tickets over face value is against the law. So again how do these scumbags get away with overcharging for tickets??

No amount of feathers or insulation can keep me from freezing in winter. Why don't other animals?

Very strange and very common occurrence.... It appears there was another squirrel in our yard that seems to have a strange paralysis in his hind quarters. Is there such a disease that causes this or could this have happened from a fall or accident of some kind? anyone care to answer??

Hey there everyone! I am an independent contractor working as a computer consultant/technician. Talking with other small business owners and operators they seem to have to do alot more than I to report cash flow, inventory, and business expenses to their accountants. I rarely talk to my accountant except around tax time and I am beginning to worry. I keep receipts of purchases and deposits on record and report them to my accountant. However with the lack of communication I don't know exactly the most important things to consider. I am told to pay estimated taxes, but still I don't want to get in trouble with the IRS because something wasn't reported and after all it wouldn't be my accountant going to jail it would be me. So any advise would be greatly appreciated.

This is the second time I am posting this question. It must have gotten lost. Anyways.. YouTube does not make finding these answers easy. I was wondering how much free storage are you allowed per account on YouTube and do they limit the amount of uploads. Please I am not asking about the size of the upload because the answer is 2 gigs or under. That I know.

I have always wondered why they don't out the contractor who does the pisspoor job that Holmes has to come in and fix? Are they outed? Who pays the Holmes bill? Are the contractors sued?

I drive pass BP gas stations all over and still see people buying gas from them. How can we shut them all down and put them out of business?

This hearsay ticks me off. We are in enough debt and now we have the burden of Europe's debt? Why are we giving them a bailout without any interest?

Can someone who know about these Bosch Platinum +2 spark plugs answer me this question? They claim "NEVER GAP" spark plugs, however I talked to a friend of mine who is an avid car enthusiast says that he is not sure about the NEVER GAP thing. This plugs are different as they electrode does not curve directly over the ground prong on the center it. It "S" curves up to it. So I gapped it to specs. Is this going to cause me a problem?

http://justin.tv/ allows it's members to stream live broadcasts of movies, NFL Sports, NBA Sports, Soccer, and Music. However, this site remains active. Isn't this illegal? Who can this be reported too? Justin Kan should be punting these copyright infringement accounts and he does nothing to stop it. He also allows members to collect revenue using a online website called Chip-in (http://www.chipin.com)/ which everyone abuses to collect non-taxed revenue for selfish reasons. This also should be looked into and reported to the IRS.

Since early October I noticed when I launch the google home page, the Google brand comes up and then maybe a second to a few seconds later the other stuff fades in. Is this happening on your end or not?

(please only serious answers - I will remove anything else)
