Hand #2 he has a Jack and thinks his hand is good, call.

In my experience not too many villains will bet $130 into a $25 pot with AJ.

He's got hero covered. A pot raise puts hero all in, so villain just slides the bar all the way to the right. I do this all the time, betting my entire stack into a 40 pot, because my opponent only threatens as much as I cover.

That being said, I would assume you are ahead in hand one enough times to justify a call. Like The Weatherman said, sometimes he has a set, but most of the time I dont think he does. With that flop, I would except your standard villain to slowplay a flopped set. I put him on AJ, KJ, or AK or some other crap and he thinks he is being clever. I think hand 2 is a call and its not even close.

-Hand 1 is meh, fold preflop. On the flop, raise isnt horrible, villain folds a Jack at least. Turn no reason to push, take the free card you earned. Villain will fire a PSB on the river when you check behind, so if you hit your 8, you can make loads. If you hit your flush you can make loads (I dont think your queen out is clean).
