Avvo.com: Are links in the contribution area bad for SEO?
No, you cannot edit Avvo answers. I suppose you can ask the folks at Avvo to just remove all of client's answers. No idea whether they will do it for you. I have had them remove an answer or three for me, so it can't hurt to ask. Not sure how your client will feel about you doing that, of course.

Should I be getting an 'A' Grade for basic words in a page title?
The tool looks at the relevance of the title, to the relevance of the URL, headings, meta and content. Since the tools dont know what you are trying to rank for, they can only see that you are consistant in your efforts to rank for a given keyword. If they all match to some degree, you get an "A". These tools are more for a quick overview, and to point out any quick areas your basic SEO can be improved.

What does Google PageSpeed measure?
I agree. I think it's primarily is a measure of the DOM efficiency of the code it self and how efficient it is when rendering by a browser. Server speed is a minimal part of it. All the caching in the world does not make it faster for to restart the rendering because of inline css. A faster responding server and download of the page only makes it possible to start faster with 90% of jobs that are relevant for PageSpeed but which are mostly handled by the browser alone?

Manual action penalty revoked, rankings still low, if we create a new site can we use the old content?
I think this white board Friday may help you out a little http://moz.com/blog/how-google-knows-what-sites-you-control-and-why-it-matters-whiteboard-friday I would just start creating fresh content on the old site and wait for natural organic links to grow. The traffic will come back over time.

When to file a Reconsideration Request
Hi Oleg, When I click that link google asks me to check for manual penalties and when I do it shows no penalties. I guess I will disavow links anyway, so I will go ahead with that. Thanks for your help!

Just bought a PA 22 domain ¿301?
Just redirecting an otherwise inactive domain (no website, etc.) will not help the site you redirect it to much at all, even if it has DA / PA. Google reduced how much this tactic helped quite a long time ago. If you bought an active website, transferred its contents to your existing site or created a similar-topic area on your existing site, and redirected pages to their most relevant resource on your existing site, you should see some benefit. However, just buying and redirecting domains is highly unlikely to result in your rankings improving.

Hreflang tag could solve any duplicate content problems on the different versions??
Yep - this is the purpose of the tag and by all accounts, it works well. It has been supported since late-2011, I believe, and I've both had no bad experiences with using it, nor have I heard stories of it not working properly.
