Please read it all before stating a opinion!!!

Prologue
Time crawled along its nonstop path…. a young gentleman of mid-east complexion stood upon a pathway made of brick, eyes fixed on his watch. Another minute passed…. his body somewhat twitched as his anticipation started to occupy his entire body like a disease. Sweat dripped like a faucet from his brow. The hour hand on his watch aligned with the number "three", time slowed. The gentleman slowly placed his hand inside his security outfit while light chatter was heard in the background. When his hand was re-exposed it held what appeared to be a homemade cell phone constructed of cheap parts. The man dialed an 800 number, and then it was silent.
Chapter 1
It seemed like a red carpet should appear beneath his feet as the man stepped out of the Humvee which had escorted him here. Although a red carpet did not appear, finely grained sand beneath his feet sparkled in the South Afghanistan heat. The man, about 6

Should my mom file a missing persons report?
Well, My sister married some douche bag she only knew for 4 months, (they met and the second day after meeting they were going and and the same week they decided to get engaged and married in april, they met in January)

So, he told us his past, he had a sad past, he was abused by his mom when he was little, he got into drugs and gangs as a teen, he had sex with a 10 year old girl when he was 12 and I guess the parents pressed charges and he is a registered sex offender (level 1 so it’s not usually on his records or something like that)

Well, my religion is christian and he said he found god and he’s in a better place now, he seemed like a cool guy, he acts "gangster" he’s in a hip hop group called Godz Gang, which is also a church so we were all like cool. I still didn’t fully trust him, but all seemed good. Until..

My sister (22 has three kids from a previous relationship) came to my mom saying she might be pregnant, see my sister still lives with us and my mom told her she didn’t want him spending the night, but SURPRISE! she didn’t listen. My mom got mad and said she should have listened or at least use birth control, because her last child was born premature, and he is a little slower than where a normal 2 year old should be, and he has a lot of health problems so he needs her a lot.

They got in an argument and my sister out of the whim, decided to move out and move into a dirty motel for a week. Anyways, that was all straightened out, they got married, we weren’t fighting (she ignored everyone because of the stupid fight with my mom) they got their own apartment, well you see her husband who we don’t really know AT ALL. got her into the church, which she started acting all weird and would say off the wall things that weren’t really christian at all. All of a sudden she got this hatred for everything that wasn’t christian or wasn’t right in her mind, she was never like this she was quite the party girl.

anyways, she treated her like shit excuse my language but he would walk into our house and use our computer like he owned it, he would even kick me off. He has ADHD and ADD. He doesn’t take medication for it, so he’s off the wall all the time. He would say rude things about my family like making fun of one of my cousins for being morbidly obese, (when in fact he is too and has man boobs) and just rude things you don’t say to family now he was apart of the family.

Well my aunt didn’t like him at all and said something like "you better watch out if you mess with her" and my sister wrote my mom a letter saying she was done and she wanted nothing to do with out family. Her poor innocent kids (6,4,2 is how old they are) were very close to me and my brother and my mom, well now they are all of a sudden denied access to not just my side of the family, but also their dads side of the family whom they were also pretty close with.

We haven’t contacted her since September, she put a restraining order against my mom saying these RIDICULOUS things, like she stole her truck and set it on fire and that she is mentally ill, and that she made me call her a bitch, which I just think she is. My mom had nothing to do with that. My mom also can’t drive because she has panic attacks behind the wheel.

I am worried, apparently, she let his best friend babysit her kids and my mom just looked at the records and if it is him, he has about 7 pages of criminal records, and stuff including threatening to kill someone.

She hasn’t been on myspace, she hasn’t been at the church, her husband has been answering her cell phone. I’m worried that these kids and her could be somewhere dead, he threatened to slash his own moms tired at their family reunion, and he spray painted our rode. my mom is worried, we have gave her time to settle down, live on her own, but it’s been since September since we have tried to contact her, my other family members have tried but no success. I know in the first place she did not want to contact any of us.

The thing is, that was 5 months ago, we are worried for the safety of her children and her, especially if her husband is a registered sex offender, and we don’t know what he is capable of, since no one has heard from her since October, I am worried her and her kids could be laying in some ditch right now because I know he is capable of doing something bad.

Would it be appropriate to file a missing persons report? Or what should my parents do in this type of situation?
Also, the restraining order didn’t go through, and he would belittle my sister and discipline the kids, against her will. He would ground them for no reason, and even spank them. CPS came to their door and told her he cannot be alone with the kids, but she still did it.

my mom also did call cps not too long ago, because those kids need to get out of that home, they are probably under a lot of mental distress, The actual father is also going to try to take her to court to get visitation rights, and also my parents, but I’m not sure if she is okay..

This is what you do. First you go to the police department and you ask them to do a welfare check on your sister and her children as she has married a sex offender (child rapist) and she hasn’t been seen for a while. The police will look for him and when they find him, they will demand he produce the wife and kids. If he cannot, then you have a problem and they will investigate. If they find her ok, they will let you know she is alive.

The second thing you do is you contact family of the father of your sister’s children and you tell them and the father about the criminal record of your sister’s husband. You hint rather strongly that since your sister has "disappeared", that they seek an emergency custody order, citing the missing sister and the welfare of the children. But even if the sister does turn up, the child’s father (if possible) or his family should seek custody of these children on the grounds that they are endangered by the presence of a child rapist. If they don’t want to do this or can’t do this, then you need to notify Child Protective Services of the situation! I doubt they will think kindly of a child rapist living with minor, vulnerable children!

This will be hard to do but you need to do it NOW. Don’t let any more time go by as the welfare of those kids is at stake. It can’t make anything worse since she already isn’t talking to you and she is keeping the kids from you anyway. One last thing though, your mother should not have accepted that restraining order against her as it looks bad. She should have fought it and made her daughter prove her convictions. I think your mom needs a lawyer.

Good luck and God bless!

CALL THE POLICE!!!!!!!!!!
L h | Feb 09, 2010

She does not meet the criteria for a missing person, but you could contact the police and ask them to do a welfare check.

It sounds to me like he is isolating her from the family, which is not illegal. It is, however, a trait of an abuser.

Call and report this, immediately!
what u talkin' bout? | Feb 09, 2010

1st i’m so sorry that your family is in this situation. And 2nd, please tell your mom to call the police. If nobody has heard from her in 5 months and her ‘husband’ (more like a creep) answers her phone and nobody has heard from her then that should tell you right there that something is wrong. Plus he is a sex offender and he could be doing awfull, disguisting, SICK things to her children. Please call the police, 5 months is long enough and somebody needs to get your sister and her kids away from her husband. He sounds like a rude ignorent person and i hope your sister is still ok. Please do something before it gets to late. I’ll pray for her safety, but please call the police.

Actors: Corbet Brady,Estrada Ulysses,Pardue Kip,Sisto Jeremy,Yang Jamison,Biography,Crime,Drama,Romance,Thriller

do you think this is a good enough reason to get taken from my mom ?
first off , my mother is a single mother . i’m thirteen . my mom is a heavy alcoholic & smoker . all she does is drink alcohol, smoke, & sleep . i have to rely on other family members & her boyfriend for me to get everything i need. she doesn’t have a job , & she used to get by on prostitution . she doesn’t provide me of any of my neccesities like food & clothing . i recieve everything i need from my mother’s boyfriend, & he’s not even my legal guardian . we live with him . it seems the only time she’s awake is when she’s buying alcohol or cigarettes . once , i witnessed her have a seizure from withdrawals when she didn’t have enough money to buy alcohol . i called the police, because i was the only one in the house . she is always too drunk to take me anywhere . when i express my anger to her , about her alcoholism ; she constantly says, ‘ well , do you want me to have another seizure or something ? you want me to die , don’t you ?’ it hurts me so much to think that she thinks i want her to die . i’m just concerned . she seems to think that if she keeps drinking nothing will happen to her. it causes me alot of emotional trauma , to keep thinking about her having that seizure , & i feel like she’s blaming me for it . i thought she was going to die that day .

This is a child neglect situation. It should go to court. The courts will likely tell you mom she has to go for alcohol treatment and counseling to either keep you, or get you back. It could save her life and yours.

What was Mel Gibson trying to achieve with the gory scenes in

Gangster No. 1 (2000) IMDB rating: 6.60 Plot: A middle-aged crime boss (Malcolm McDowell) smugly reflects back from 1999, narrating the brutality which made him triumphant - and feared. As an unnamed young hood (played by Paul Bettany) in Swinging 60’s London, he seemed to ape his mod boss Freddie Mays (David Thewlis), and do anything for him. But his narration exposes all-consuming envy: of Freddie’s supremacy, and especially his tall bird (Saffron Burrows). The baby shark develops his viciousness and backstabbing, scheming to be Gangster No. 1.

Water. The word itself describes its purpose. Water. Water. Water. Like the thud of a man

The Romanis Year's Best (Football) List!?
Here’s a sense of own Best of 2009 list in football. As always, it might not be a true reflection as I have chosen some on sentiment rather than merit.

1. Best Player - Lionel Messi (No need to elaborate for obvious reasons)
2. Best Club - FC Barcelona (Another obvious choice)
3. Best Managers - Kim Jong Hun (North Korea) / Vladimir Weiss (Slovakia) (Obviously there’s no contest if we lay Pep Guordiola’s achievements on the floor, but these 2 deserve huge plaudits for steering their teams to the WC Finals.
North Korea managed to overcome the challenges of Iran and Saudi Arabia, both arguably better teams than them, whilst Slovakia topped a group that included the Czech Rep, Poland and Slovenia)

4. Best Club Match: - CL Final Rome 2009. (A few possibilities, Liverpool 4-4 Arsenal or Real Madrid 2-6 Barcelona, but Barcelona provided an outstanding display of football to easily dismantle Manchester United, probably the 2nd best side in world at the time. It could have finished far greater than the 2-0 scoreline).

5. Best International Match - Argentina 2-1 Peru (WC Qualifier) Not a classic in the truest sense, but the atmosphere and finish in the driving rain at River Plate’s Monumental Stadium, was breathtaking. Not forgetting Maradona’s antics as well. The Egypt 2-0 Algeria match in Cairo was another dramatic one)

6. Best Moment - Thierry Henry’s handball against France. The 1 defining highlight of the year. It will be remembered for a very long time.

7. Best Upset - Slovenia 1-0 Russia. A last minute away goal in the first leg, gave Slovenia some hope, but many expected Hiddink’s Russia to finish the job off at the Petrol Arena. How wrong any were. Another best upset was Saudi Arabia 2-2 Bahrain. The Saudis scored deep in injury time to go 2-1 up and secure a play-off against New Zealand. From the restart, Bahrain went up and equalised through Latif, and they advanced on the away goals. The home crowd in Riyadh was silent until Montashari scored, they then erupted in the usual Arabic style - horns blaring, singing, dancing, clapping and screaming - 30 seconds later, it felled deathly silent. The contrast - priceless)

8. Best Goal - Ronaldo Porto 0-1 Man United CL 2009. A 40 yard screamer ensured United victory in the Estadio Du Dragao. There have been so many others I can’t seem to recall when each one happened, take Messi for example, he’s scored so many wonders, I can’t remember if it was this or last year. But I do recall that goal against Getafe.

9. Best Save - Can’t seem to recall 1 presently, too many to choose from.

10 Best Quote - Diego Maradona. No contest. Here’s what he said:

Point Blank (1998) IMDB rating: 3.70 Plot: Convicted corporate criminal Howard engineers a prison break as he and a number of fellow inmates are being transferred to a new facility. The escapees storm a shopping mall and take a group of shoppers hostage (after killing many more of them) before making their demands. Only Rudy, a former mercenary and brother of one of the fugitives, can take out the criminals before more of the hostages die.

A boy fancied me and i just carried on being his friend now i don't think he feels the same?
I met this boy in the year 10 (the year below me) about 3 months ago. I have found out from my friend who met him at the same time as me, that he fancies me really badly. I carried on being friendly to him even though i knew he fancied me, as i didn’t want to blank him! We go out together most weekends and just generally hang about, we’ve been to the cinema a few times too.
Yesterday i spoke to him on facebook as we usually do and he was really weird with me giving me one word answers. At this point i realised how much he means to me and that i actually do fancy him back, so i said to him ‘do you fancy meeting up at half term’ and he replied saying ’shrug’ and then he said he was going off facebook and just left.
This sounds like i’m really over reacting but i don’t know what to do as i really really like him and i don’t understand what i’ve done to upset him. I would have spoken to him at school today but i was off ill.
HELP ME

---

I used to have a friend who fancied me soooo much that at one point he used to be a nob and be funny with me but that was because when he asked me out i said no…

hey just take a deep breath and relax, if he really liked you so much then he’ll have a good chance of coming back if you really show you’re feelings for him, if you want any other help email me at jbruner75@yahoo.com

It hasn’t been that long right? In that case just tell him that you Fancy him and he should turn around.

I wish you two luck ^.^

Later on you should also ask him why he was acting this way.
LunateLulu | Feb 04, 2010

---

he may have enjoyed hanging out with you a few times but then that was all?……being told from a friend that someone likes you is always tough - because you didn’t make the judgment yourself; therefore you really don’t know how much he likes you or if the guy just thinks you’re a nice girl. make sense?

now you like him…………uh oh. once you begin to like someone you’ll start to be a little more aggressive in your convos or actions - and that might not be what he wants. i don’t know what you talk about, so im not saying you’re doing anything wrong. im just saying that if you start showing more interest (and its noticed) then he may take a step back. if he just thought you were a nice girl (but not wanting anything serious) then he isn’t going to respond to your messages as he had before.
