5+ hour, 27+ min ago (328+ words) Dear Liz: My ex-husband took out a credit card in my name without my knowledge. By the time I discovered it on a credit report, he had over $14,000 in charges on the card. I was able to close the credit card, but cannot remove my name and Social Security number from the account. My ex refuses to pay off the credit card nor does he make payments on the card as a judge ordered him to do in court six months ago. I have called the issuing bank, visited in person, spoken with everyone that I can, to no avail. The best they can do is flag the card for fraud. Since the credit card is not being paid off, it is damaging my credit score. Do you have any advice? Answer: Report the crime to your local police and…...

According to a source with knowledge of the forthcoming hires, Shephard's football general manager will be Alabama associate director of player personnel Eron Hodges.

Additionally, Shephard will bring on Mitch Dahlen as quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator, the source said.
