GeorgiaCourts.org. This site is provided by the Georgia Administrative Office of the Courts. Quote from the site Webmaster, "We want www.georgiacourts.org to be among the best judicial websites in the country."  It seems to be a very good site. There are links to all the courts in the state and numerous other legal related sites.

 

Georgia Council of Probate Court Judges.  This site has information on obtaining marriage licenses, firearms licenses (yes that is a rather odd combination) information on the duties of executors and administrators, and a large number of probate and guardians forms can be downloaded from the site.

 

Secretary of State, State of Georgia. This is a very useful site.  You can reserve a corporate name, get information on incorporating a company, find the name and address of registered agents for service of all corporations registered to do business in Georgia, search for information on corporations doing business in Georgia; obtain election information; check on state licensing requirement for certain occupation. The site also has links to other agencies.

Oilendgame.org. Winning the Oil Endgame offers a coherent strategy for ending oil dependence, starting with the United States but applicable worldwide. This synthesis is the first roadmap of the oil solution—one led by business for profit, not dictated by government for reasons of ideology. This roadmap is independent, peer-reviewed, written for business and military leaders, and co-funded by the Pentagon. It combines innovative technologies and new business models with uncommon public policies: market-oriented without taxes, innovation-driven without mandates, not dependent on major (if any) national legislation, and designed to support, not distort, business logic.

www.annualcreditreport.com  You can get free credit reports from the three nationwide consumer reporting companies — Equifax, Experian, and Trans Unionall at this site.  The following is from the Federal Trade Commissions web site: A recent amendment to the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) requires each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies to provide you with a free copy of your credit report, at your request, once every 12 months. The FCRA promotes the accuracy and privacy of information in the files of the nation’s consumer reporting companies. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the FCRA with respect to consumer reporting companies.  A credit report contains information on where you live, how you pay your bills, and whether you’ve been sued, arrested, or filed for bankruptcy. Nationwide consumer reporting companies sell the information in your report to creditors, insurers, employers, and other businesses that use it to evaluate your applications for credit, insurance, employment, or renting a home.
