You have to apply for it. You can only receive unemployment if you are currently unemployed, searching for a job and otherwise qualify for unemployment benefits. Some of the qualifications include not being fired for any cause of your own, having worked at your previous place of employment a certain # of hours a week for a certain amount of time, etc.

yes you can with clip out or you can keep on you and if you get pooled over just pop the clip out

May someone with a concealed weapons permit in Pennsylvania carry a gun into a bar?
It depends on local state laws. In some states, yes. In some states, no, but it also depends on the weapon. For instance, in TN, it is currently illegal, even if you have a permit, to carry a handgun into a bar or restaurant that serves alcohol (athough that is likely to change shortly), however, it is not illegal to have a knife (as long as the knife is otherwise legal).

Can you buy a handgun in Indiana with out a permit?
(I found the answer on http://crime.about.com/od/gunlawsbystate/p/gunlaws_in.htm)
Yes, it is legal to purchase a gun and transport it (unloaded and in secure packaging) to your home from the store where you purchased it. You can also transport it to and from a repair shop or to a new residence (within Indiana?) if you move. Other than that, the only place you are allowed to actually carry the gun is in your own place of dwelling. (Not sure if this means inside your house or just on your property? Probably inside?)
You can now get a lifetime handgun carrying permit in Indiana (if you are over 18 and otherwise qualify). It ends up being $125 total. You pay $50 cash to your local sherriff/police department, then send a money order in for $75 to the state. They mail it to you a few weeks later.
(For hunting rifles and shotguns, I believe you can own and carry those without a permit.. Just make sure you have a hunting permit!)
Can you collect unemployment and your Social Security?
Technically and legally, yes, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind.
While the Social Security Administration doesn't prohibit people on (SSDI) disability from receiving unemployment checks, state unemployment regulations usually require all unemployment recipients to be willing and able to accept full-time work.This creates a conflict, because you're generally not eligible for Social Security disability benefits if you're capable of full-time work.
When you file for unemployment compensation, all states require you to provide your Social Security number (authorized under Internal Revenue Code of 1954, 26 U.S.C. 85, Sections 6011(a), 6050(b), 6109(a), P.L. 98-369, Section 1137(a)(1)). They will share information about your claim with other government agencies to determine how unemployment affects other benefits you may receive, such as Medicaid and food stamps.
If you are already receiving Social Security Disability(SSDI), and you are filing an unemployment claim that shows you earned more than an average of $1,000 per month, the Social Security Administration will consider you to have engaged in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA), which will cause problems.
The SSA allows people on disability to attempt to reenter the workforce without penalty by providing nine non-consecutive trial work months during which you can earn in excess of $1,000 per month without jeopardizing your benefits. However, any month that you earn more than $720 is counted toward your trial work period (TWP), so if you have already used up your nine-month allotment andyou continued to earn in excess of $1,000 per month, the Social Security Administration may terminate your disability status or may initiate a Continuing Disability Review (CDR) to determine if your disability status should beterminated.
If you earned more than $1,000 per month for more than nine months, you may be required to repay the Social Security Administration for overpaid benefits and you may also be terminated from disability.
On the other hand, if you file for unemployment compensation based on earnings averaging $1,000 per month or less (below SGA), the unemployment claim is legitimate and shouldn't raise any red flags.
If you are in the process of filing for Social Security disability, the conflict between simultaneously claiming to be incapable of "Substantial Gainful Activity" (SGA), which generally translates to full-time work, and contractually agreeing that you're willing to accept full-time work (under state unemployment regulations) in exchange for unemployment compensation, mayresult in being denied disability status (most initial claims and first appeals are denied, anyway).
If you persist with the disability claim and proceed to a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ), it will take approximately 18 months to two years from the date you originally filed the claim until your hearing date.
By then, your unemployment compensation will (probably) have been exhausted and you will either have been forced to accept employment (thus ending your disability claim for all practical purposes) or will continue to be unemployed or be under-employed. This may be a factor in the judge's decision to award or deny disability, but it will not necessarily prevent you from receiving disability benefits. The disability determination process is usually long, and should not be viewed as a way of generating quick cash.
For information regarding your specific circumstances, contact the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213, or seek consultation with a disability attorney.
How do you transfer gun ownership in ca?
The California DOJ website http://ag.ca.gov/firearms/pubfaqs.php#top has a list of frequently asked questions on gun ownership and transfer in California. It has the answer to this question (which I have posted below). Keep in mind that the process is different if you are transfering ownership to a spouse or child. Those requirements are listed on that page as well. Hope that helps! I want to sell a gun to another person, i.e., a private party transfer. Am I required to conduct the transaction through a licensed California firearms dealer? Yes. Firearm sales must be conducted through a fully licensed California firearms dealer. Failure to do so is a violation of California law. The buyer (and seller, in the event that the; buyer is denied), must meet the normal firearm purchase and delivery requirements. "Antique firearms," as defined in Section 921(a)(16) of Title 18 of the United States Code, and curio or relic rifles/shotguns, defined in Section 178.11 of Title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations that are over 50 years old, are exempt from this requirement. Firearms dealers are required to process private party transfers upon request. Firearms dealers may charge a fee not to exceed $10 per firearm for conducting a private party transfer. Example: # For a private party transfer involving one or more handguns, the total allowable fees, including the DROS, safety, and dealer transfer fees, are not to exceed $35.00 for the first handgun and $31.00 for each additional handgun involved in the same transaction. # For private party transfers involving one or more long guns, or a private party transfer involving one handgun, the total allowable fees, including the DROS, safety, and dealer transfer fees, are not to exceed $35.00. The dealer may charge an additional dealer-service fee of$10.00 per each additional firearm transferred. (PC section 12072(d))
What does a class D driver license entail?
Varies by state. CDLs are the only licenses which have to conform to uniform classification standards throughout all states and territories of the US - any other type of operator license, the state is free to classify as it so wishes. Normally, Class D is the basic, non-restricted drivers license issued to anyone 18 years of age or older and which allows them to operate a vehicle with a Gross Vehicle Weight of 26,000 lbs. or less. However, it does differ in some states, and might be reserved for chauffeurs and taxi drivers, and other types of occupational driving for which the state wishes to implement additional requirements, but it doesn't fall into the scope of what would require a CDL.

1 week to life depending on what part of the world you're from.

Which material is used for making bullet proof materials?
they use (Lead) because it has a low melting point and easy to mold and cool. they also use it because it is light enough to be shot farther but it also has enough weight so the wind wont affect its accuracy as much
Lead is used only in cheap bullets. Better bullets are an alloy of lead and antimony. Many common lead bullets have a copper or steel 'jacket' -Most accurate rifle bullets are a bronze-nickel steel mix, or a copper alloy.
What did the Reconstruction act do in 1867?
Nearly two years following the end of the Civil War, Congress finally forged a complete plan for reconstruction. Three measures were passed in 1867 as well as additional legislation the following year. The measures' main points included:
- Creation of five military districts in the seceded states (not including Tennessee, which had ratified the 14th Amendment and was readmitted to the Union)
- Each district was to be headed by a military official empowered to appoint and remove state officials
- Voters were to be registered; all freedmen were to be included as well as those white men who took an extended loyalty oath
- State constitutional conventions, comprising elected delegates, were to draft new governing documents providing for black male suffrage
- States were required to ratify the 14th Amendment prior to readmission
Is it legal to wear a bulletproof vest in public?
Penal Code 12022.2 is basically the only definition in California statutes that describes the use of wearing ballistic armor during a commission of a crime. If you knowingly and intentionally commit a crime while wearing ballistic armor (more specifically a felony), then a minimum of one year up to five years of prison time is going to be added to your sentence.
As for general wear, as long as you don't have any felony convictions on your record (and in common sense, a justifiable reason to own it / wear it), then you're fine. Felons are prohibited possessors of ballistic armor in the majority of states in the U.S.
Actually, the answer provided above is not entirely true. CA Penal Code Section 12370(a) sheds more light on this subject. Specifically, it prohibits those individuals who have been convicted a "violent crime" (as the term is defined in Penal Code Section 667.5) from owning a bulletproof vest. Otherwise, there is no prohibition against ownership.

Is a mobile home real or personal property?
In most states it is considered real property, in those that have to specific law as to how it is categorized the default statute could apply leaving it to the decision of the court. However, homestead exemptions pertaining to mobile homes are quite different than the exemption for a house. Whether or not the land on which the mobile home is located is owned by the dweller could also play a part in how the property is assessed. If you are in California, the double wide is only consdired to be real property by a lender if it is on a permanent foundation.
When did the legal limit change for drinking?
Many states established the legal age of 21 for the purchasing or drinking of alcohol after Prohibition was repealed in 1933. The Federal Minimum Drinking Age Act was passed in 1984, which required states to establish a minimum age for a person to purchase and have public possession of alcohol. All states now set the age for such acts at 21. Several states do not have established grounds or procedures relating to minors drinking in their home or other private homes, especially if they have the permission of the adults present. Such a discrepancy is the reason why adults are often charged with violations such as "corruption of the morals of an underage person" instead of providing alcohol to minors.
