Legal Advice Sites

1)  Avvo.com seems like the best.  First, it's free.  But in terms of a response, I'll have to wait and see.  

2)  FreeAdvice.com says it's free.  You do get to talk online with an assistant for free before she turns you over to a paid page where a lawyer will reply . . . like I said for a fee.  The fee they were going to charge me was $31 plus a $5 refundable fee, for what God only knows.  

FreeAdvice.com does have a forum.  I cannot tell on the face of it how free it is.  It requires you to register.  And I don't know if that is free or not.  

3)  There is another site called LawQa.com.  Problem with this is that your email is a requisite, so if you're trying to get legal answers to questions first and then go over a lawyer with the costs, this is not that helpful because they're asking for too much up front.  

4)  Then there is the American Bar site at freelegalanswers.org.  The first field you have to enter is the state in which you  live.  I did that.  I received a reply that said "The state you chose is not available."  So nothing works online.  The American Bar Association must be working overtime to keep effective legal sites from becoming serviceable. 

5)  Then there is Ask a Lawyer at Lawyers.com.  Let's see how this pans out.  This site, too, requires you to submit an email.  I did that and I received an email confirmation that I am skittish to answer.

Lawyers

Harassment lawyers, Denver.  

1.  Try HKM.  I've called them before but didn't get much feedback; in fact, none at all.  
2.  Miller & Steiert.
3.  And more.  Go through each one.  Good luck.

5.

The state [of Colorado] recently amended the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA) by passing the Sexual Orientation Employment Discrimination Act (SOEDA).  CADA now prohibits discrimination based on a person's sexual orientation, religion, disability, race, creed, color, sex, age, national origin or ancestry.

Here’s what makes it good:
(1) It’s something lots of people need. Anyone trying to make a living online will be interested in things like (a) attracting website traffic, (b) getting websites designed, (c) getting websites hosted, (d) getting graphics designed without breaking the bank, (e) social media marketing, (f) building an email list, (g) how to write copy that sells, (h) creating landing pages, and (i) plain old “how do I earn money online?” The products you promote will help people solve those problems.
(2) It’s really easy to be an affiliate in this niche. (In other words, it’s easy to find other people’s products you can promote and earn a commission.) There are tons of products launching all the time, they’re all looking for affiliates to help promote them. The affiliate payment is much more generous than with physical products: usually 50%, but sometimes as much as 100%.
(3) These products generally have some form of scarcity attached to them: either they come off the market altogether after a certain amount of time, or their price rises after the initial launch. It is much, much easier to make a sale when the customer knows there’s a chance of missing out.
(4) There are some jerks in this industry, so you’ll stand out just by being a decent person.
There are other reasons, too. I don’t know of any industry that has something like Michael Cheney’s 7-Figure Franchise, which he launched early this year. I’ve had tremendous success with it. I cannot get over how brilliant the logic of it is.
Michael Cheney is one of the most successful affiliate marketers in the world. Anyone in his right mind wants Michael promoting his products. I have earned a small fortune promoting products using Michael’s method.
Toward the end of March I promoted one of Michael’s products — The Commission Machine — to the smaller of my two email lists. This is a very inexpensive but exceptionally valuable product. As you’ll see if you buy it, it lays out the exact strategy I myself use for successful affiliate promotions: where to find products, how to make sales, how not to bore your prospects to death (as so many affiliates do), and a lot more.
As a member of Michael’s 7-Figure Franchise, I earn 100% commissions on all his products. So every cent of those sales went directly to me. When people buy his upsells, all that money also goes to me.
Once people enter their email addresses on Michael’s landing page, the fun really starts. They get placed into an 8-week email sequence in which, in his usual entertaining style, Michael pitches them on all his products. I also earn 100% commissions on every one of those sales.
So once I send traffic to Michael’s page, all I have to do is sit back and wait. Michael’s email sequences do all the work.
And if someone buys one of Michael’s high-ticket, back-end products, I earn a $1000 commission.
This has worked so well for me that a few weeks ago I revamped my Happy Earner email list so that all the new people who join it are automatically taken through a 7-day email sequence promoting The Commission Machine before they start receiving my regular emails.
It’s been just under six weeks since I sent out that week’s worth of emails, and it’s earned me $17,501.88.
The money in this niche is ridiculous. If people knew, they’d be shocked.
So if it’s plain old dough you want, you should at least look into it. Suppose you managed to build an email list of 1000 people (which is totally doable). That’s a little more than one-sixth the size of my (quite modest) list when I started that Cheney campaign. Would you be satisfied with one-sixth of $17,501.88 after a week’s worth of emails?
Don’t do anything you don’t want to do, but I’m just telling you: I’m in the middle of this pool, and the water’s great. Particularly this water.

So if you watch the first video that I made myself on my YouTube channel, you’ll see it’s a mess: the lighting is wrong, it’s pixelated, awful.
Bad video is slightly better than no video, but ugh.
For months afterward, I struggled to get the lighting right. The lighting is all over the place in my early videos.
A professional-looking video gives you instant credibility. A lousy one does the opposite.
And man, can it bring in traffic: I got maybe 12,000-15,000 downloads of my eBook on Bernie Sanders, but over 56,000 views of a short, simple video about him.
And Facebook loves video.
But it’s scary, it seems impossible, and you don’t know where to begin. Yet at some point you will have to figure this out. It WILL generate more traffic for you, and that means more dough — sometimes a lot more.

Background Checks

What categories are checked? 

Employers want to know what you medical history is.

Landlords want to know what your Credit score is. There is Landlord.com.  And use MySmartMove.com for credit checks. MySmartMove.com is operated by Trans Union, one of the three credit agencies.  If you go to the site you'll see their prices for credit, eviction, and criminal reports.  

I have used http://www.e-renter.com/ For 29.95 you get a basic background check and tenant credit check. As I recall, you give them the range of credit score you will accept and they will tell you if the tenant falls within those parameters.

This is the best description I have found on what is in a background check and why they tend to be done after someone has been hired.  Crazy.

Apparently the E-Verfiy is quite popular but for whom?
Background checks involve checking biographic and biometric information provided by the individuals against a variety of databases maintained by DHS and other federal government agencies.


There is HireRight.
What shows up on a background check depends on what type of background screening is performed, and for what purposes. Below are the most common types of background checks and what they include.

Criminal Records

The following will show up on a criminal background check report if applicable:
  • Arrests
  • Convictions of felonies and misdemeanors
  • Court records (e.g. dockets, orders, decrees, judgement, etc.)
  • Warrants
  • Sex offenses
  • Incarceration records
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)*, criminal background checks cannot contain records of civil suits or arrests after seven years. Criminal convictions stay on a person's record indefinitely, but California doesn't allow employers to see convictions more than seven years old for most jobs. 

1. Yes. Use WordPress.org, not .com, so you can control your traffic and domain name. 

WordPress is indexed very quickly by Google and the other 4% of search engines. It's free, and easy to use. The most difficult part of WP for me was choosing from the thousands of available free themes. 

2. In my experience you won't need a tech person for a simple site. I'm a hardware techie, not software, and I've done several WP sites. 

Since Goog owns YouTube, it indexes videos very quickly. You may want to use videos on your site, or use the images as links to videos, so when visitors click on the image they are taken to the respective vid on your YouTube channel. 

4. What is the most valuable part of any business? 
The customer list. IMO you want to begin building one asap. 

Offer a free ebook, which seems more valuable than a report, even if the report and ebook are the same length. (Yes I write ebooks and all kinds of marketing material, so consider my suggestion blatant advertising :-)

Regarding SurveillanceBook I empathize with you. It's almost a necessity these days, even if only monitored for reputation management. 

What about forums? There are forums for everything -- I've seen flashlight forums, lumberjack forums, lawnmower forums... it's fascinating the subjects people will spend time asking about and discussing. 

I know a guy who advertises ONLY in one forum, with links to his YT vids, and takes a booth at trade shows. Prior to a show he invites forum members to stop by his booth for a free item.

Gaslighting to WWII to Modern Wealth

Some references from GN's site.  

MathWorks.  If I were in the mood for math.  It must be for advanced computer systems.

Site Information Tool.  


Gaslighting.  More on gaslighting.  Above the law?  Apparently so. This is a pretty good list of gas lighting symptoms.

This is excellent.  And this here shows the cultural aspects of military warfare.  This is important because the U.S. military is treating its own citizens as enemy combatants.  What else would drive Tamara, the military cunt, to gas-light me?  I asked a few lawyers about the legality of gas-lighting.  Here are the responses I received:

A Fairfax, Virginia attorney answered:
Not a criminal offense.  Your friend might benefit from counseling to counteract the gas-lighting that he may have endured.
My friend was destroyed by the company.  What, there are no more workplace harassment suits?  Welcome to America.  

A Boulder lawyer explained that
It's not a criminal offense.  Nor is it a viable civil claim. His reason?  The facts don't rise to the level of outrageous conduct.
Another Boulder, CO lawyer explained that
Your friend needs a therapist, not a lawyer.  
Okay.  Doesn't really sound like they know what gas-lighting is.  Se la vie.  Wait!  This guy offered some practical advice; he didn't dismiss the issue outright. 
Best see a personal injury lawyer to hear story from your friend.
An injury lawyer did write 
I cannot find any law that would be directly on point, making such activity a crime.  My suggestion is that you, or better yet your friend, contact the District Attorney's office in the county that they live and speak to an investigator there and have them investigate it. It is the district attorney's office that can file criminal charges.
That is the best advice I've ever heard.  Adams County.

Well, Tamara, it looks like you won. 

Tamara made a point to ask me over a weekend, when I was relaxed and thinking about work, "Don't you think that the movies from the old days are better than today's movies?"  That was a hard question to answer because there are so many great ones from both the present and the past.  Talk about your retarded.  But her voice sounded so helpless, so crippled and stupid that it was hard for me to be critical over her stupid questions and their open-ended generality.  The generality leaves the listener a bit dumbfounded because there's nothing to sink one's teeth into, nothing to wrestle with.  But what she was doing was setting the parameters or framing the game.  The old movie to which she was referring without naming it was Gaslighting (1944), starring Ingrid Bergman. 


There was a British edition produced in 1940.



But Tamara layered the gaslighting.  Gaslighting's effect is that it makes you doubt yourself, doubt what you konw.  The sadist is laying new neuropathways in a pleasurable background--her voice, she was a female, young[er], positioned herself as a confidant, a friend, a listener.  Without these, the game would not have worked as well.  With these her recurring role of ingenue would not have been very effective.  Her lies, which were relentless even after I told her she was lying and if she could please stop, were non-stop.  

If nothing else, her game and its affects on me fertilized my curiosity, so I began searching for different military techniques. And here is what I found.  See here, here, here, and here.  There is no legal recourse to gaslighting.  See here.  Signs of GaslightingAnd no legal action against sociopaths.  How to beat a sociopath and win.  What are your options?  See here on how to teach conversation.  See here on directing conversation. See the languages taught in the military high school programs.  See the English curriculum taught in military academies


Gaslighting is nothing more than Plato's Cave or a reference to the Allegory of the Cave as it is told by Plato.  It is essentially casting images in your head that are not real but feel real.  The ethics of it remain horrific. 

Biological effects of Gas-lighting.  Biology of Hypnosis.
