Pay varies by county
In my (rural) county, aide pay starts at, I believe, $11.50/hr. (I live in the southeast, too.) In neighboring county, big city, horrible kids, it is about $8.50/hour, and the aides are required to have at least 2 years of college. Go figure. The teacher pay is higher here, too.
Really? I wonder if it varies by state
Not that I'd want one.
It varies alot. sm
Where I live a school has to  have open enrollment, and then there are certain conditions.  They may limit the number of additional students to accept.
It varies. Got called ONCE in my 20's, then nothing -
'til my mid-40's. Then it was pretty much every other year, though one time I got called a year later.

The first time I appeared for selection, my name wasn't even called. Then, two times it was called after waiting all day, but I wasn't needed. After that, I made it to the courtroom and it seems like each time I did, I made the jury.

The last time I was selected was kind of interesting, because each of us had to stand up and tell the judge what we did for a living and answer a few questions. She seemed to brighten up and seem very pleased that I was an MT. After that, I could've been at death's door, and she wasn't going to let me off! I do have to admit, though, I listened well, took reams of notes, and when we were handed a 4-inch-thick pile of the plaintiff's medical records to plow through in order to find a few certain details, that was of course my job. So I guess that's why they wanted me on the jury.

It's actually kind of fun. Met interesting people on the jury, the case was interesting, and it was almost like a small vacation to actually have an hour and a half for lunch each day. The downside was I had to work most of the night in order to still make my line count for work and get paid. I was doing a lot of coffee and No-doze to keep me going through the afternoons in court. Then I'd go home, take about an hour nap, and then start typing. Fortunately the trial was just a week, and not six weeks or more!
the law on this varies by state
Disclosure law varies by state. This is called material disclosure, which basically is anything that may influence a buyer's decision on the home. You would need to check the laws specifically for the state you are in. In California, it is if the death has occurred in the prior 3 years it has to be disclosed.
It varies by state
some require, some don't, goes by whatever department regulates the real estate business. In my state they don't have to and the seller's agent is prohibited from disclosing 'intangible' property stigmatization issues' like murder, sex offenders, suicide, etc. We were referred to an agent when we were looking for a house who grew up here and been in the business for 20 years so knew the area well, so went ahead and signed up with her as 'buyer's' agent, and she said she would let us know anything at all that she knew about an area or a house, told us how to look up sex offenders in the area, etc. Was for 6 month contract but was worth it, she worked like a dog, didn't cost any extra other than what we would have paid to a seller's agent (they split the commission), and didn't feel like pushed to buy any particular place. I would think that it would be hard to not have something like that known to a local buyer anyway, but someone moving in from somewhere probably wouldn't know unless they researched on their own. You can Google the info for your state on disclosure. Sorry for your neighbor's troubles, must really be an awful thing to deal with!!
it varies from mom to mom - mine was 1st 3 months
I always kept Saltine crackers without the salt with me wherever I went and it worked for me.  I was only ill the 1st three months and was running around Europe so I had to have dry crackers with me all the time.  Good luck!  *S* 
No problem. Pay varies. Usually you buy something up front sm
and then you get paid for the shop on top of that. Usually around 20.00 for the entire shop. Takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on where you go. Metro area where? I live in Alabama.
It probably varies from person to person (sm)

With me, first child I was out of the bed seriously within 5 minutes of having him.  I didn't tear or have to be cut, he was 7 pounds, 3 ounces.  The doctor did some type of vaginal massage on me though while I was in labor and that was supposed to help loosen the vaginal wall?


Second child, same experience.  She was 8 pounds, 1 ounce and within 5 minutes of having her, while they took her to the nursery to get cleaned up and all, I walked downstairs with my husband to the cafeteria to get a drink and stretch my legs.  I had already put my regular clothes back on as well.  My doctor who delivered her was walking in my room as I was walking in and he was stunned a second and said he thought I was a visitor, LOL, not the patient.


I don't think you have to have bed rest in normal cases.  With my son I went home within 24 hours with him and with my daughter we went home in only 20 hours.
