When did Arizona become first affiliated with the US?

Some limited interaction surely occured between explorers and Mountain Men in some form prior to 1800. Trappers like Kit Carson were sufficiently familiar with southern California, New Mexico and present day Arizona to be of great value to the US Army during the California Campaign of the Mexican American War. A formal relationship was created as the result of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo which ended that conflict in 1848.

What is the year of Arizona's statehood?

Statehood was rejected, delayed and set aside by the US Congress on numerous occasions because of its "Bad Boy Image". It became the 48th US State on 14 February 1912 and remained the youngest state for 47 years until Alaska was admitted into the Union.

Are there still people trapped in the USS Arizona?

Nearly 1200 sailors died among the Arizona's crew. Some were completely vaporized in the massive explosion when the ship's own magazines were detonated by a bomb, destroying the forward half of the ship. Others were blown overboard, or were killed where they were on the upper decks or the main weather deck of the ship. These were easily recovered. Some were burned very badly and removed to hospitals, where they later died.

For several months after the attack the Navy tried to recover the remaining hundreds of bodies from within the interior spaces of the Arizona. This was very dangerous work, carried on by divers in deep sea rigs, with air hoses trailing back to the surface. The ship was full of jagged edges that could tear the suit, rip the air hose, snag a diver's equipment and trap him forever. It was completely dark in the ship, and any bodies found were in an ever-advancing state of decomposition.

The Arizona was destroyed about 12 minuted into the attack, and Condition Z was never set. This means the ship's watertight doors were not dogged shut. There may be air pockets remaining in the top of some interior spaces, but most of those spaces would be full of water. The hundreds of remains still aboard were completely skeletonized long ago.

All the superstructure was cut away during the war, and some of the scraps of that wreckage are still on Ford Island. Any bodies overlooked in those areas would have been found then. The two aft main battery gun turrets were removed and remounted on land as coast defense batteries, one on Oahu, I cant recall where the other was placed.

The Arizona has been leaking fuel oil continuously since she went down almost seventy years ago. She still leaks a few quarts every day. The wreckage is growing increasingly fragile, and will one day collapse into an unrecognizable heap on the Harbor floor.

Age to buy knife in Arizona?

Knife shops will expect you to be 18 years old. A quick standard for legal length is, if the knife blade is longer than the width of the palm of your hand you are in trouble if arrested for an offense. Lay the blade across the palm of the hand. It cannot extend beyond the width of the palm. Knives are not to be carried in motor vehicles because of road rage. We have to be sensible in our travels. If we go to certain parts of the city, especially after dark we look for trouble. If we go to pubs, clubs, night discos or dance parties we look for trouble. If we hang around with bad mates we are doomed. Crime is out of control worldwide. Cops cant handle it neither can State governments. Its a better way to stay at home and find something sensible to do.

Can a 16-year-old girl in Florida move in with a 36-year-old man without her parents' permission if they both love each other?

Hey, I do not know much about Florida laws, but I can surely ask you to hold on. Are you 13 now and are planning to move out at 16? Girl,give yourself a break. Live life for the moment, and I can surely tell you that you cannot do it with a 36-year-old man. I know love knows no age but hey the difference here is too great to apply this ideal. If you are already in a physical relationship with this man, just give yourself a moment and think 'What kind of a 36-year-old grown-up person would have a physical relationship with a 13-year-old?' Just think of the situation from a different perspective than yours. Friend,if you have problems at home like an abusive father, mother or a sibling, I suggest you seek required help from the authorities and also to fortify yourself with proper education, which helps you to carve an identity of your own. After saying all the above things, I would add if you feel that your love is true and the man is a good man and you do have a future with him, then girl take one step a time. You still have 3 more years in your hand. From a woman to another woman-I would say be smart, safe, and practical. Good Luck! *Yes, with your parents permission. I live in Florida. As long as you have your parent's permission and you are not on probation, you can do just about anything. *If a 16-year-old leaves home without parental consent, then she will be picked up by the authorities and returned home. Under Florida law, here are some charges that the boyfriend could possibly face: interference with custody/contributing to the delinquency of a child/unlawful sexual activity with a minor/lewd and lascivious behavior/and possibly other charges as well. Don't do it! *No, even with parental permission the authorities would be able to take action if it were brought to their attention by a teacher, neighbor, whomever. The consequences the adult male would face could be quite serious. There are any number of criminal felony and/or misdemeanor charges related to this type of situation. In addition, the parents would be able to seek restituion and remedies by means of a civil lawsuit against the adult male.
