Western Star Trucks is a Redford Township, Michigan, United States based manufacturer of Class 8 commercial trucks. HistoryIn 1970 White Trucks started the Western Star division as White Western Star from about 1970 until 1979. By 1980, White was insolvent, despite importing Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, son of General Motors legend Semon Knudsen, and President of Ford Motor Company in 1969–70. Volvo AB acquired the U.S. assets of the company, while two energy-related companies based in Calgary, Alberta, Bow Valley Resource Services and Nova, an Alberta Corp., purchased the Canadian assets, including the Kelowna, British Columbia, plant, and the Western Star nameplate and product range. In 1990 Western Star Trucks was purchased by Australian businessman Terry Peabody, who turned around the company's fortunes over the next 10 years, and in 2000 the company was purchased by the Daimler AG truck division, Freightliner. All Canadian production was shifted to American plants, and the Canadian company wound down. Western Star is now a US firm based in the US. From Wikipedia under the

OUCH. You just committed a big time crime. Those are forged checks on stolen account numbers, usually businesses. I bet the check came Fed Ex and not in the mail. They do that to avoid mail fraud charges. Since the stolen account numbers are real the bank cashes the check and they will go through. Once the fraud is discovered they will come back on your for the full amount of the check. You better have the money to cover it. This will help prevent criminal charges against you. Since it is fraud they can come back on you for the money in a month or up to 5 years from now, once it is discovered. I think you should call the State's Attorney Generals office and tell them what you did and maybe they will send a detective to help try and… [cont.] Answered by Thor - Thu May 14 21:40:57 2009 Glastonbury Festival 2007 full lineup?

Q. Why Two Bush Appointees Are Refusing to Leave (too many corrupt Democrats to prosecute!) The Daily Beast ^ | 1/16/09 | Scott Horton Posted on Sunday, January 18, 2009 7:03:07 PM by Libloather Why Two Bush Appointees Are Refusing to Leave by Scott Horton Two U.S. attorneys appointed by Dubya are refusing to leave the Justice Department when Obama takes office. Their explanation: they've got too many corrupt Democrats to prosecute! An internal report issued this week by the Justice Department brought attention to the Bush Administration s efforts to burrow partisan ideologues deep in career civil service positions at the department. But even a few of Bush s political appointees at Justice are giving the new Obama administration trouble. [cont.] Asked by Ivan Youlose - Sun Feb 1 02:05:52 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. They sure haven't been after the Republicans criminals! They can't refuse to leave. They are appointed by the president and he , especially when Obama took office can hire who he wants! I am sure their "last stand" will be shorter than Custer's! I have an issue when anyone tells me they are going after one party or another!
