My question involves real estate located in the State of Wisconsin, USA.
I bought a property with some forest land a few months ago. There is a neighbour that claims access to my property (he goes through it to access the main county snowmobile trail).
Today he gave us a copy of a Quit Claim Deed between his wife and her ex-husband regarding passage through the middle of my property. It was notarized in 1988.
It was never filed/converted to an easement (we know that because it did not come up when we bought the house, and the previous owner told us he looked into the public records in 1994 and it was not there, he did not deny access then because he did not want to spend money in a lawyer).I think the neighbour just filed for an easement this week after we denied him access (I placed a gate on the trail), and he reportedly was told the path through our property will come out in the county maps this January.
His property is NOT landlocked. He uses my property just as a shortcut to the snowmobile trail, which he could perfectly access taking the regular trails that go in front of his house, it would take him 5 extra minutes.
He has been doing this for over 20 years.
This guy has left a cemetery of beer cans in my property, so I fear he'll DUI when on his snowmobile.Will our mortgage bank, real state agency or Title Services company involved in the purchase of the property back us up?
What are our rights here? What are the chances of him getting his way in court?
Do we need to lawyer up?

Obama: Terror Explosives Found, Bound for US
by leavingwt inobama: terror explosives found, bound for uspresident barack obama declared friday that authorities had uncovered a "credible terrorist threat" against the united states following the overseas discovery of u.s.-bound packages containing explosives aboard cargo jets.
obama said both had been addressed to jewish organizations in the chicago area.. the disclosures triggered a worldwide alert amid fears that al-qaida was attempting to carry out fresh terror attacks.. the events "underscore the necessity of remaining vigilant against terrorism," the president said.
the packages both originated in yemen, but obama did not explicitly assign blame to al-qaida, which is active in the arab nation and long has made clear its goal of attacking the united states.. the events unfolded four days before national elections in which discussion of terrorism has played almost no role.. obama stepped to the podium in the hours after officials disclosed that authorities in dubai intercepted an explosive device bound for a chicago-area jewish institution.

If Vampire is confused and if disagrees with the abiogenesis concept, he should say so instead of going out of the way and dismissing evolution. There is absolutely no scientific controversy on the existance and nature of evolution, regardless of what his creationists owners taught him.

It is not worth to discuss science with Vampire as long as he gets his "scientific" brainwash education from religious magazines.

Dear Vampire, please get the terminology right:
Evolution does not attempt to explain the ORIGIN of life. It studies the change in the inherited traits of organisms through successive generations. Evolution is a 100% accepted and measurable fact. Get over it.
The theory of evolution is not a debatable fact, but the "origin" of life. Did humans evolve from single-cell organisms? Nobody knows.
While we're at it, Charles Darwin did not publish an article on the "origin of life" but the speciation (diferentiation) of already living organisms, therefore the title "origin of species".

Do people argue on whether fish can swim? The only discussion on evolution I'd contemplate is on its mechanisms together with environment.

Arrested Druid Gets Permit to Carry Sword

Druidry is to become the first pagan practice in UK to be given official recognition as a religion:
2 October 2010
Druidry to be classed as religion by Charity Commission
Druidry is to become the first pagan practice to be given official recognition as a religion.
The Charity Commission has accepted that druids' worship of natural spirits could be seen as religious activity.
The Druid Network's charitable status entitles it to tax breaks, but the organisation says it does not earn enough to benefit from this.
The commission says the network's work in promoting druidry as a religion is in the public interest.
The move comes thousands of years after the first druids worshipped in Britain.
Druidry was one the first known spiritual practices in Britain, and druids existed in Celtic societies elsewhere in Europe as well.
Phil Ryder, chairman of the trustees of the Druid Network told the BBC: "It's nice to have that official recognition. It's not why we applied originally.
"We applied because we were legally obliged to do so."
He said the organisation represented around 350 people who had paid £10 each for membership but referred to a BBC Inside Out investigation from 2003 which suggested that up to 10,000 people described themselves as druids.
He added: "You have to apply [for charitable status] if you're an organisation that is taking money off people because the Inland Revenue want to know what you're doing with it."
Turning seasons
BBC religious affairs correspondent Robert Pigott says that with concern for the environment growing and the influence of mainstream faiths waning, druidry is flourishing more now than at any time since the arrival of Christianity.
Druidry's followers are not restricted to one god or creator, but worship the spirit they believe inhabits the earth and forces of nature such as thunder.
Druids also worship the spirits of places, such as mountains and rivers, with rituals focused particularly on the turning of the seasons.
After a four-year inquiry, the Charity Commission decided that druidry offered coherent practices for the worship of a supreme being, and provided a beneficial moral framework.
The decision will also mean that druidry will have the status of a genuine faith.
Referring to the tax breaks, Mr Ryder said: "For us that is a very small consideration because we don't really have that level of income to make that even an issue."
He said what was more important was that it would make administrative tasks a lot easier for the organisation.
"It does give recognition with local councils and people who provide premises and services to charities, who will only deal with registered charities," he said.
Senior druid King Arthur Pendragon, told the BBC News website the organisation had had to "jump through hoops" to meet the commission's requirements.
Although he runs his own druid order, he said the Druid Network's achievement was a celebration for all members of the faith.
He said: "We are looking at the indigenous religion of these isles - it's not a new religion but one of the oldest."
The 56-year-old added that people were becoming more interested in finding spirituality and the decision reflected this.
"I think people are looking to their roots and looking back at the secular world certain that things don't work.
"This decision shows how important our faith is. We are getting credence from a secular government about our belief structure - which not only shows it is valuable but also valued by us and others."
Mr Pendragon, of Stonehenge, said he would not be seeking charitable status for his own order - the Loyal Arthurian Warband - as it was a political wing and therefore had no need to be recognised as a charity.
If you were to become a druid, what would your new name be? I'd go for Green Sword-Bearer Gerardix. -

Dear Holly Zoo: Telling us of a message of "love and peace" would have suficed. But the voice had to come back to you and add "by the way, post it in the JWN forum." That was waaaaaayyyyy over the top.
Impaired awareness of illness is the simplest and most logical answer. Please consider the option of healing and freedom. Religious cults do a number on its followers. But you know that.
Peace and love to you.

Just wondering, why didn't Jeehover contacted somebody influential like Hitler, Musolini or George Bush in order to avoid genocides? But no, he contacted Messiah Smell-the-Flowers Jane Doe at the Zoo and told her to post a blob in this forum. You are soooooooooo special to become his gofer.
I am not sorry if I don't feel compelled to abandon my job and family and enroll in your religious cult.
Well, gotta go sacrifice some chikens to Molok.

I'm sorry if i was not clear Jim TX. I had that experience yesterday when i heard His voice, and then this morning i was told to post what i had heard the day before.
Holly Zoo Batman! Please welcome our Messiah For The Month of September!
So, according to this new divine revelation, now even Jeehover is jumpin' in the Internet bandwagon for publicity. And he requested a post in JWN specifically! Just one question: Can't the all-mighty Jeehover do that for hisself? I mean, he created the universe and all things within....I'm sure he's got a computer somewhere in his palace in the Acyclone star.... I'm sure he could afford at least a dial-in and a modem.....
