I am a single parent raising an 11 year old completely alone.

I think you should wait, and after Christmas, and sadly enough you are going to have to tell him face to face. If you don't have the guts to take it, you can just "accidentally" take him to a site talking about it. But telling him would be the best idea.


What did you do about it.\nWas it perpetrated by family or a Care Center?

If you or someone you know has been harmed in any way and been exposed to elder abuse, you need to report it right away.  Our country has very strict laws against this, and there are plenty of agencies that are out there that can help you or your loved one if they are being abused.  \n\nAbuse typically occurs within families, not facilities :(  It is very sad, but true...People get stressed out, tired, and frustrated when they try to take on the responsibility of caring for an elderly family member.  And abuse will often result if they can't cope with the stress...


Out of curiosity, how much does a person usually spend on buying marijuana? And what form of measurement do they use?

Prices of marijuana will vary widely depending on the location and the type that you are purchasing. Near the border of Mexico where cheap pot is plentiful, you will find it very cheap. In other areas, its going to be more expensive. The quanity you buy will also affect the price, getting discounts for volume. In general your average user will probably purchase from 1/4 oz to a full oz, which is also the top end for most state laws on a "personal amount" to be differentiated from a much higher crime of "distributible amount". Again, depending on the location and type, you can find marijuana costing anywhere from $20-$80 per 1/4 oz. A full oz will run anywhere from $60-$150 or so.

This girl follows me every where but it is killing my rep. and she likes my boyfriend so she hangs around me to get to him.I feel like I want to knock her out but she is dorkey so it would make me feel bad. I have no problem beating up preepy people but the other stupid people make me feel bad.

Figure out what insecurity is within you that makes you worry so much about somebody else. And if it's just a distaste for this person, be honest about it and she'll go away. A little hurt feelings is a lot more efficient than suffering through something because you're uncomfortable. And she'll get over it.


i need to write a reasearch paper on public versus private higher education

A public university is an institution of higher education that is funded by public means through a national or regional government.


The age old question, but now I want the "real" answer.


why is may27, 1967 important in nigeria's political history?

May 27, 1967.\nGowon's Broadcast to the Nation, dividing Nigeria into Twelve States\n\n20 Top African Universities \n  \n1 University of Cape Town \n2 Universiteit Stellenbosch      \n3 Universiteit van Pretoria - University of Pretoria \n4 University of the Witwatersrand     \n5 Rhodes University  \n6 University of South Africa\n7 University of the Western Cape    \n8 American University in Cairo     \n9 Noordwes Universiteit - North West University  \n10 University of KwaZulu-Natal     \n11 University of Johannesburg   \n12 University of the Free State   \n13 Université de La Reunion   \n14 Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University    \n15 University of Dar Es Salam \n16 University of Zimbabwe \n17 Al Akhawayn University     \n18 Cape Technikon   \n19 University of Mauritius  \n20 University of Zululand


In a fantasy baseball keeper league would you rather have Derek Lee or Jake Peavy?  Why?

First, are you in a rotisserie or a head-to-head league? I think pitchers are more important in a rotisserie league versus a head-to-head because they only (starter's that is) only pitch at most twice a week. In a rotisserie league, the stats accumulate where as in a head-to-head, the stats reset after one week. If you're in a head-to-head, I would go with Lee.\n\nI had Peavy on all of my Rotisserie leagues, and he helped me to dominate. Granted, he did help in the head-to-head, but typically, I would try and drop pitchers and scour the free agents for daily replacements.\n\nPitchers are very important to success in Fantasy. Jake Peavy is one of the best pitchers in MLB and he plays in a pitcher's park. While Derek Lee had a phenomenal year last year, over the long term, I don't see him producing at the same level.\n\nPeavy, on the other hand, is going to have a lot of strikeouts, a good era, whip, and will probably rack up the wins. I don't see Lee leading the league in Average, Home runs, Stolen bases, runs or RBI.\n\nIn sum, keep Peavy if you're in a Rotisserie or need a stud for Head-to-head, but use Lee if you need the numbers for a Head-tohead matchup.


This should be a simple and experimental network, so there is no need for professional equipment. I just want to do some "first steps" with token ring. \n\nCan i connect 2 NICs, as i can do with ethernet (using a crossover cable)?\n\nWhat are minimum requirements for token ring?

Token ring needs an MSAU to connect two or more computers together. You should be able to get one cheap. If you want to play with a token passing system try arcnet. Its easier.

7 - Mature (been around a long time, but it still needs a lot more work)\n\n9 - Secure.  There are problems with it, but the whole idea behind how Fedora is being developed goes hand in hand with paying close attention to security and running server type processes in their own sandbox in memory.  The program can do anything it wants in its own sandbox, but it can't break out of that sandbox into other parts of the operating system without permission.  A lot of programs are being updated to work well with Fedora Core and other operating systems that are starting to do this. There are some programs that will barf if you don't give them enough access to the system though, so no 10 score here.\n\n10 - Cost. Free. Enough said.\n\nFedora, Suse, and Ubuntu linux are all very interesting distros you should keep a close eye on.

i'm into a relationship & i want to impress my lady with little or no fault of mine.

Then the reasons given began to evolve over time.

If you had a bully that was going to kick your butt.Then he hit you and it feels like being hit with a wet noodle.How would that make you feel?That's what happened in Iraq.There were so many people in the Iraq government trying to convince the other Islamic countries that they were the strongest,that they didn't know where thew truth was.I have known someone that had the same problem, never knowing where one lie starts and the next one stops.We(the World)were all lied to by Saddam's people.That's all the information we(the World)had to go on, think aboout that.


This question is for those, who do not celebrate any religious Holidays and do not believe in the Holy Bible..I am speaking of Dec. 25th, not New Years..If you do not believe in God, then why do you not push to also remove, this time off from work and keep it as a regular work day..for some want to have God removed from money, classrooms, courtrooms..etc..\n\nI Love you all and you are all, in my heart and in my prayers..Amen

I know you said this question is for those who don't celebrate any religious holidays, but I'm going to answer anyways.  People seem to take great precaution to not offend anyone--unless, of course, they are Christians.  Go figure.  It can be so frustrating to see everyone try to take Jesus out of Christmas, isn't it?  :(  It may make you feel better to know that Happy Holiday means Happy Holy Day.  And I think it is safe to say Jesus's birthday is a VERY holy day, wouldn't you?  So... Happy Holy Day and a very Merry Christ-mas to you!


What type of classes will I have to take? What kind of skills will I need? How has it evolved today? What is the potential longterm for this career? What is it like? What is the History of Human resource management? How much physical and emotional stress?What is the future outlook for this job?references volunteering and summer job?How will I be evaluated>

You might want to get a degree in Human Resources. Your skill set should be in the area you like or can find a job in such as 401K, hire and fire, safety and the like. The field has evolved into HR companies for hire, and HR people working for these companies. It is a good field. The stress varies on the company and an internship/ coop would be a great start.

With reference to the above Question.Is that bridge 1,750,000 years old?

The NASA Shuttle has imaged a mysterious ancient bridge between India and Sri Lanka, as mentioned in the Ramayana. The evidence, say experts matter-of-factly, is in the Digital Image Collection. The recently discovered bridge, currently named as Adam's Bridge and made of a chain of shoals, 30 km long, in the Palk Straits between India and Sri Lanka, reveals a mystery behind it. The bridge's unique curvature and composition by age reveals that it is man-made. Legend as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the primitive age, about 1,750,000 years ago and the bridge's age is also almost equivalent.

I am in commission sales. only 800 per month is salary. I also pay for my childs medical ins.

You've provided far too little information for anyone to answer the question adequately.  I've included a couple of links on Virginia child support generally, including a child support calculator, where you can use more specific information to estimate the total amount.  I hope it helps, and if you post another question with more specific information, I'd be happy to help.\n\nEDIT: According to the State, "Shared and split custody arrangements are usually more complicated, often involve litigation, and generally include many unique variables. For these reasons, they do not lend themselves well to generic calculators because results can vary widely, and can often be affected by variables not included in a calculator."  I've included that link below also.  I'm afraid you won't be able to obtain a quick and easy answer regarding child support in a joint custody situation.  You'll have to contact your attorney, or the state.  The information for the state is on the DSS's web site.


I live in Kalama WA. I want to get a part time evening job in Radio. I have no idea how to get into that kind of business.

i want to know what is the best electronics brand in the ME with statistics, and which brand is the strongest in CRM

In terms of overall brands (from a marketing perspective). Interbrands does an annual study of the largest global brands\n\nIf you are looking for which brands are the biggest in terms of market share, it gets trickier. There are brand share statistics from vendors such as Gartner, IDC, Forrester, etc. There are also some statistics from industry associations. However, in the electronics space, most vendors sell into multiple categories - often making share difficult to identify.\n\nIf you are asking what is best for your business - go to Gartner or Forrester - one of the buyer-side analysts

Head a reporter use the word.  Any clue what a Graupel is?

Graupel can be any of the following types of solid-ice precipitation:\n\n    * hail - large chunks of ice such as from a strong or severe thunderstorm\n    * sleet - small pellets of raindrops that have frozen in mid-air, in winter or a thunderstorm\n    * snow pellets - when freezing fog forms 2–5 mm balls of rime ice around a centre of sleet or a snowflake\n\nGraupel does not include other frozen precipitation such as snow or ice crystals.


Specifically, a provident deity that involves itself in the world, not just the cause of existence.

Ok let me put this in practical manner. I don't know about others but I believe on God because God given me a second chance in life. If I'm alive today it is because of God's wish. It was horrible accident and no hope was left but you know god makes some sort of magic and you start to believe in supreme power. I think until and unless you don't face problem in life (until some miracle happens), you will not get idea about God, IMPO. I'm also agree with Lady Xia.


What are the causes of Diabetes?\nHow to prevent Diabetes?

If I want to buy some shares of stock and the price at that moment is $90, who sets it or how is it calculated at $90 and not $91 or $89.

The laws of supply and demand determine the price.  If the current price is $90 and no seller is willing to sell for less than $90 while buyers are willing to pay no more than $91, then the next several trades would likely occur at prices between $90 and $91.\n\nTypical trading ranges in the short term are much tigher than this.  So typically the range would be just a few pennies.

I just took the ASVAB and scored in the top 82 percentile. Is that good enough to allow me to get a job in engineering/science reseach feilds if there are any in the military?\n(The minimal score to get into the military is a 31)

Most military engineering jobs are farmed out to private industry.  The military only gets directly involved in field testing the new weapons systems once the private companies have done all the research and development.  \n\nIf you really have an interest in this field, you need to go to college and get yourself an engineering degree.  Then, if you can't get hired by a company that's doing the research you want to be involved in, at least you can come into the military as an Officer instead of a grunt.


Prefixes such as un-, dis-, ir-, il-, etc., negates adjectives they are attached to.  Are there "rules" or "patterns" that tells you which prefix attaches to which class of adjectives or words ?

The English language consists of many words which have germanic/celtic origins, others have latin ones. You find negation prefixes like "dis" or "im" on those words which originally come from latin. There are of course exceptions (unpleasant for example). Sometimes both possibilities exist but mean something slightly different. Compare "immortal" with "undead". But there are synonyms. For your examples:\n\nunhappy: disconsolate\ndishonest: untrustworthy\n\nIt is quite interesting to consult a thesaurus and find the equivalents with germanic/celtic origin to the latin ones and vice versa.


Cranes are large, long-legged and long-necked birds of the order Gruiformes, and family Gruidae. Unlike the similar-looking but unrelated herons, cranes fly with necks outstretched, not pulled back. Most have elaborate and noisy courting displays or "dances". They mate for life. Some species of cranes migrate over long distances, while cranes in warm climates do not migrate at all.

They occur in most of the warmer regions of the world. They tend to live in drier habitats than their relatives the herons, spoonbills and ibises, and lack the powder down that those groups use to clean off fish slime.

My boyfriend pays monthly child support for his daughter, this child support is based upon his income (he is in California, so is the child).  If we get married, will my income be used in the child support calculation?  Is there a potential that the child support may have to be raised?

NO...the US Supreme Court ruled several years ago that the prior assets and current income of a parent's spouse (In this case, you) cannot be presumed to be available for the purposes of child support or spousal support, even in states where all income is otherwise considered to be community property and all debts considered to be joint obligations...that means you are not legally on the hook for his kids and his ex wife can't try to get your house...in a nutshell.\nIf you two marry and he stops working or something, they can haul his tail to prison if they have cause to believe that he's willfully avoiding his obligation, but your paycheck cannot be considered in deciding or fulfilling his support order.\nYou will want to consult an attorney specialising in family law about specifics such as whether you should file your taxes jointly or seperately, how a jointly purchased home should be deeded and to draw up a prenuptual agreement about any inheritance you may recieve in the future and MAKE OUT A WILL....Both of you.\n(the Supreme Court ruling left some confusion about the distribution of assets aquired by one party but within the marriage)

Hi  .How are you doing  . I have a question for you.I am 21 yrs old and my girlfriend is 20.I found out that I have genetal warts 2 years ago .And it was too late to protect my girl ,so she got it too.After that we started going to our family doctors to treat the warts.Then we found out that she has a mildly up-normal Pap smear .So the doctor choose to freeze her vergaina.6 months later we checked a new pap and it was normal all the way. Now we are one year away from the last pap . my girlfriend i soo scared to go do another one because she dosn not wanna find a new thing wrong with her ..Please tell me what should i do..She thinks she will get cancer \nPlease e mail me back.

Genital warts are the most common STD there is.  I read somewhere that over 90% of all humans carry it.\nAre genital warts serious?\n\n    * They can be. For most people warts are only a bother, and are treated if you wish. If a woman has warts on the cervix (opening to the womb), they can be a problem. It is rare, but sometimes having warts can cause a woman to have a pap smear that is not normal, (including changes that may lead to cancer). For this reason, women with warts on the cervix should have a pap smear test (part of a pelvic exam) every six months to one year. Men and women who have warts on or inside the anus should have an exam every year.


It does seem odd the degree to which gay people are so despised, ostensibly for religious reasons. What about all the other passages in Leviticus about not eating shellfish/pork, not using mixed fabric, and never getting divorced?\n\nIt seems odd that so many people are so focused on Leviticus 18:12 (gay=sin), when so many other things that are mentioned as sins are completely ignored.

A historical/anthropological answer might go along the lines of:\n\nHomosexuality was rife in Greek and Roman societies as it was in many other pagan societies. The early Judeans opposed Greek and Roman oppression and occupation and responded by targeting the fabric of their society by making Laws or interpreting laws (e.g. idol worship became blasphemous, homosexuality became an abomination and women were not to be treated as slaves - tho the Bible records periods when this was not the case - and some traditions continued to view women as second class citizens).\n\nThen came the Christian era.\n\nThis semi-monotheistic faith saw the bible as a pic-n-mix. One minute the Law dictated to Moses at Mount Sinai is what makes you a sinner and you dont need the Law anyway cos belief in Jesus is all that is required, the next your actions and behaviour are all important when certain things offend Paul (e.g. women and homosexuals).\n\nIf it werent for Pauline Christianity, Christianity today would either follow the Law more closely like Judaism (and thus still be a sect of Judaism) or it would have only two rules (love God and your neighbour) and no Law.\n\nThe reason for this schism is the dilemma that faced Paul. On the one hand, Paul sought to form a new religion (after his attempts to 'convert' Jews were unsuccessful) but also needed the "old" one for legitimacy (it was the one God of Israel that gave the Law at Mount Sinai, how could Paul - a mere mortal - cancel the Law of God given to man at Mount Sinai? Interestingly in the original Greek texts, one way Paul got around this was to express that he was the reincarnation of Jesus and therefore also the son of God).\n\nIf you want to read more on whether it was Jesus or Paul who invented Christianity, see the links below.\n\nFinally, I'd like to say that whatever people believe about your sexuality, it is just their belief. You should stick two fingers up to them and get on with your life. There's a reason you were created the way you were - it's just a shame these religions can't appreciate that. However, that is their limit, not yours.

When I was pregnant with my second child I found that eating beans would make my chest tight, it felt like I could never eat again.  Since then I have had this issue, pretty much every time I eat any kind of bean it feels like my throat closes up.  Is this an alergy?  I'm better in a couple hours & don't have any kind of rash... it's just odd.

Yes- it definately sounds like an allergy.  Allergies don't necessarily show themselves as rashes.  I would definately not eat them again especially since it compromises your breathing.


Now people can sing about anything. Some of the lyrics in these song are just plain stupid. Which ones have you heard?

i am 17 years old and wish to attend a college in New Jersey. the only way i can get in i think is if i get a student visa as i am not yet a citizen of this country. i am really stuck here and i would really appreciate your help and advice.

you cannot get student visa before you enroll into a college.\n\nYou apply to college, and if they accept you, they send you form I-20, which you take to US emabssy or consulate (plus other paperwork, check the link above) and (hopefully) get a visa.\n\nIt is also a good idea to apply to several colleges in case your main choice does not take you in.


got a web to go to but it is really no help to me. can you maybe help me?

For spyware removal, there are good freeware tools:\nAd-Aware SE, Spybot S&D, Spycatcher Express, and Microsoft Antispyware.  If those fail to remove the spyware you're encountering, you can also use trial versions of commercial products: WebRoot SpySweeper, CounterSpy, and Ewido.  Manual removal is alos possible using Hijackthis.

me the ability to make really good money?

I would say nursing. You can do the lpn program or the rn.  The pay is good and there seems to be a big demand for nurses all the time.\n\nI should have went that route--dumb me--I became a teacher.  Cripes--talk about low pay.  I finally gave up teaching and now just do telemarketing (with a Master's Degree lol). I now make $10,000 more a year than I did teaching.  Sad, isn't it?\n\nBe a nurse.


And don't say Oswald, Sirhan, Ray and Ted Kennedy.  Seriously, guys, that would be very, very weak.  Come on.

I really don’t think we will never know the true story behind each of these events.  Each of these events has too many open questions.  Many of the people involved are either old and/or have died.

There are lots of online resources, but let me offer some advice.  There's no way to learn it well enough to do it, faster than it takes to actually gain a certain level of experience.  You can't have a baby in 1 month with 9 women just because it takes 9 months with 1 woman.


Okay. There's this guy.. I mentioned in one of my last-time questions. I haven't contacted him for 2 months. \nThen he comes online on MSN Messenger and I deliberately go offline. He sent me an e-mail saying that he knows I'm ignoring him on purpose and that he just wants to be friends.\n\nBut... I don't think I want to. Because I've noticed him doing something weird in class like cocking his head back and front. (E.g. like how people imitate chicken?)\n\nSo what should I do? I desperately need help.

I think you're being dramatic.  If this is the only reason you don't like him than that's silly.  Maybe he has a disorder or something and can't help it.  You even said yourself that you think he may not know he is doing it.  I have an 8 year old sister with tourettes, and she does weird things with her hands and her head.  Th kids are really mean to her about it.  Next time you feel like being rude to him for his actions, picture an 8 year old little girl coming in from school crying and maybe you'll think differently.  Maybe he really does just need a friend.

Teenagers and everyone else! I need your opinion! \n\nWould you take a 3hr live in-person Class to learn how to write your own video games! At the end of the class you would have a complete game that you created and can upload it to the internet to share with all of your friends. You can also sign up for additional classes such as 3D game design and 2d and 3d Animation. The class would cost about $40 bucks. What do you think! Let me hear your honest opinions!


And if so, how much would you expect to get paid?\n\nI'm not asking for volunteers right now; just trying to figure out how willingly people would volunteer and how much a test would cost.\n\nThe test would take one hour.  And while you'd probably be fine, there is some possibility that you would get a little sick.\n\nThanks for responding, whether yes or no.

i would if it was more physical and not towards experimental medicine.  i was in a study once, but i didnt take the medicine.  I had my wisdom tooth taken out.  they gave me medicine to bring home since they cant keep me there.  i went home and threw it away. when asked in a follow up, i said i took it and it relieved the pain, but some instances it didnt work so i took an advil and that helped.  i said that because i didnt want to false information to get to the public.  we would end up having all these people take medicine that was supposedly proven to work but didnt.  I would probably want at least 100 dollars to be a ginea pig.  Even if it was 200 buxx, and some people only make like 60 buxx a day after taxes, i dont think people want to be a ginea pig.  so, at least 100 would be fine for me, given that its only an hour.  because look on the other side.  i make between 40 to 60 an hour.  so, why bother being a ginea pig unless its more then that?  whats the average income in that area?

If Einstein was right what was he right about?

Einsteins theories and the related mathematical equations seemed to have held up to experimental data for both special and general relativity. In that way, it seems he was at least right in the way he described reality. It may turn out that there is a theory out there somewhere that is even righter.\n\nWhat he may not have been right about is calling the Cosmological Constant his "biggest blunder". It now seems that it is in fact needed in GR.\n\nThere is a theory circulating the internet currently that Einsteins Special Relativity may have mathematical inconsistencies, but I have not verified this.


How can you give your love to other people for free...though you are still carefull about not letting anyone take advantage of it???

Any common traits? Sites with info. Anything abotu relationships? Money? Life?

Caps are some of the smartest people alive. Caps are very logical and practical. Equipped with common sense, Caps usually make the right decisions the first time. Caps are also known to be very loyal to a small, close knit group of friends. It's not a popularity contest with them. These are just a few traits. The rest depends on their astrology, Chinese zodiac, up-bringing and current environment to name a few. Regardless of horoscope, people should be good to others and follow the golden rule -- treat others as you'd have them treat you.

I didn't used to believe in soulmates.  Until I met mine. He is not perfect, but he tries hard to make me happy and really loves me.  We have great communication, and are working on the things that aren't as great.  I think a soulmate is someone that you know in your heart is the ONE for you, you know you will never want anyone else, and you make the committment to work through all your problems and never give up.  I guess, in some ways, your soulmate is given to you and in other ways, you help that person become your soulmate.

was there a bhudist religion before bhuda came? how did people "live the right way" if there wasn't a budist religion? or is it kindad like jesus and christianity?

Gautama Buddha was the founder of Buddhism. He studied and practised Hindu discipline.\n\nKing Suddhodana and his queen Maha Maya ruled Kapilavastu. The queen gave birth to a baby boy on the way to her father’s place at Lumbini. The boy was named Siddharth. Queen Maha Maya died seven days after his birth. His maternal aunt (or step-mother?), Maha Prajapati Gautami brought up the child. \n\nAccording to legend, an astrologer foretold his father, the king, that young Gautama would give up the throne and luxury and renounce the world the day he would see four things (i) an old man, (ii) a sick man, (iii) a diseased man and (iv) a dead man. Hence, the king confined Gautama in a special palace which was provided with all worldly pleasures. He was married at the age of sixteen to Yasoddhra.


Had a large .avi file, mistakenly over-wrote it with a small file. Data still there somewhere?

with extreme difficulty. It can be done provided that the computer has not had much disk activity since the file was deleted and overwritten. Auditing software in particular provides this functionality but it also very expensive.\n\nThe data can be recovered by using a technique for reading small spike differences in the magnetic 1's and 0's recorded on the disk. A small spike or voltage difference means that the spot on the disk was likely to have been a 0 previously. A higher spike or magnetic difference means that the spot on the disk was likely to have been a 1 previously. This is hampered by two things though, a) the file system used on the disk could be security protected (NTFS) so a program might not be able to access the disk directly, and b) a program would have to contend with the varying voltages that the hard disk applies to increase/decrease sensitivity when reading.\n\nIn short, you're going to have trouble recovering the file and it may be easier to simply get it from the original source.

I have seen this term on some weather websites, but never anything explaining what they are.

BLowout tides occur in areas (generally nearshore shallows, marshes and tributaries) where the shore is very flat so the water remains shallow for some distance from the low tide mark. If you get a strong offshore wind at the same time as you have a low tide, then the wind will push the water out to sea so that you have what seems to be an extra-low tide, or a "Blowout" tide (because the wind blows out the water.)\n\nHere are some good photos of a blowout tide:\nhttp://www.fossilguy.com/trips/mrylnd_dec2005/mrylnd_dec2005.htm


It seems that a large percentage of the population wears glasses/corrective lenses. Poor eyesight must have been a serious disadvantage to survival in the past (even a couple hundred years ago for the lower classes). So has our collective eyesight gotten worse, or were our ancestors with poor eyesight either barely scraping by or getting weeded out?

well i tink its us... reason being to the introduction of technology. With 'new' medias like computers, televisions... so yeh... generally our eyesight is getting worst as the generations progress... im wearing glasses myself.. :D

The Patriot Act is ready to be renewed (see: http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9588_22-5986379.html) and American civil liberities are threatened by it. It seems to be just another example the government acting without the support of the American people, yet no one did anything to stop it.

We live in such comfortable, free times that many feel there's no cause to rise up and take any sort of political action...any many are partially right.\n\nHowever, there is a larger problem--ignorance due to lack of education. Millions of people lack the basic knowledge of both our government and the way laws are enacted, and of our determined history.\n\nIf you know people like this, I'd recommend you give them (or recommend they read) the book "1776", written this year. It discusses the struggles we overcame for our independence, even when it seemed impossible.\n\nAs to the Patriot Act, you are right that it severely threatens INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS, but please learn not to use the term "civil liberties" or "civil rights" or "human rights". These terms subjugate the true nature of INDIVIDUAL rights to a collective/society/mob.\n\nBenjamin Franklin was a strong advocate of liberty being of more importance than security, and he's absolutely right. After all, Iranians are in many ways very "secure", but they have absolutely zero freedoms.

it is a social studies question for my kid to quiz him

When Napata was conquered in 591, the Kushites moved their capital to Meroe right in the heart of the Kushite kingdom. Because of their relative isolation from the Egyptian world, the Meroitic empire turned its attention to the sub-Saharan world. For most of its prosperous life, the Meroitic empire served as the middle term in the trade of African goods to northern Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. While it still continued the cultural traditions of pharoanic Egypt, the Meroites developed newer forms of culture and art because of their isolation from the northern kingdoms.

I'm interested in a variety of explanations.

Ok, so I'm an E-3 in the Army. I am going to the board for soldier of the quarter in like march or something. People keep telling me "You need to put your book together". However, my NCO doesn't seem to have time to explain what that means and what needs to go in it. HELP!! I've heard about like certificates and stuff like that, but what SPECIFICALLY needs to be in there?? Come on soldiers....square away your battle buddy here!!

Here it is, Troop:\nThe "book", think of it as an "I love me book". It should have all the information that got you to this point in your career. The upfront stuff would be your current APFT and counceling statements. But you are trying to sell yourself for as a candidate to the board members. Include copies of your awards and badges you've earned, don't forget those Letters of Appreciation signed by a LTC and above. Include copies of certificates of special training and any college classes you've taken. If you've done some legit volunteer work it shows you've spent time develping yourself as soldier and gave back to the community. The best thing to do is go to your AKO and print your Military Personnel Records Jacket (MPRJ) and use it as a check list. The board members want to see the details of why you are such a good Soldier. \n\nMake a copy of everything (use color if you can), put them in document protectors and get a plain three-ring binder to put them all together. It would be helpful if you used tabbed dividers to organize the sections. AWARDS, SCHOOLS (military and civilian), ADIMINISTIVE, and if you want to be a high speed PFC go get a DA photo made.

A "biodegradable" product has the ability to break down, safely and relatively quickly, by biological means, into the raw materials of nature and disappear into the environment. How long does it take for cigarette butts to break down?

do people actually get their original teeth replaced to have a more perfect smile?

veneers are porcelean (sp?) caps that are put on the teeth.  each tooth is ground down (the same as when a crown is placed) and the veneer is cemented on top.  The difference between crowns and veneers is that crowns are placed for functionality (to repair a diseased tooth and give a working chewing surface) whereas veneers are merely cosmetic.  Also, veneers replace ALL teeth in the mouth, whereas crowns are usually placed one at a time as needed.  The purpose of the veneer is to give an entirely new shape to each tooth, thereby making a new mouth.  It's like getting dentures without having all your teeth pulled.  And yes, people do get this done (mostly celebrities, it's expensive)  to either fix their crooked teeth or whiten the teeth or both.  Hope this helped!


like walkie-talkies do - surely a cell phone has a bi-directional link to the cell tower?

Two cell phones cannot connect with one another point to point in the conventional sense as they have to communicate through the network because the numbers dialled need to be resolved by the mobile switch (i.e. the exchange) and connected to the other cell.\n\nHowever, the two cell phones can definitely connect in the point-to-point mode if both the cell phones are bluetooth/WiFi enabled. The cell phones would be behaving similar to walkie talkies in this case.


cause my friend and i marked and drew all over our faces and the next day it was off we didnt scrub our faces either

The skin that you marked with the Sharpies is permanently black. Remember that skin flakes off all day. The maker only colors the top layer of your skin, which flaked off over night to leave nice clean skin in the morning. The skin flakes are just too small for you to see that they are still black.


I frequently read PDF and I really wish there was a way that I could highlight on my computer (like in word), instead of having to waste paper to print it out.  I don't have the money to buy Adobe Acrobat, so I'm wondering if there's a free program that would allow me to highlight my PDF's.

There is a feature in Adobe Acrobat Reader, called the "Select Tool'. All you need to do click that tool icon, you cursor now changes from arrow to a text pointer as in MS Word. Select the text portion and press Ctrl+C to copy it.\n\nNow, go to Word and paste it there. You can also highlight using a similar option given in Acrobat Reader.


I believe that a camera was once developed???

When asking about Auras under Science be prepared to get answers like these. \n\nDefinition of an Aura\n"An unusual physical sensation that occurs in some people before a seizure occurs. Auras, which vary depending on the individual, can be a strange taste or odor, a tense feeling, or even a sound."\nwww.theuniversityhospital.com/epilepsy/html/aboutepilepsy/glossary.htm\n\nThe other kind of aura is just an optical illusion. No Magical energy involved. \n\nIf you wish to disagree on this you might as well believe that a Mirage in a desert is also not an optical illusion but a rift in the space time continuum allowing us to see a parallel universe.

I'm an English teacher, and I actually tell my students not to read the subtitles, because if you're reading the subtitles you're not listening to the English on the movie.  Students who do this could end up with better reading skills than listening skills.\n\nIt depends a lot on what you want to do with English.  If you plan only to read and write English, you can just work on those skills.  If you want to spend time in an English-speaking country, you should work on speaking and listening too.\n\nI recommend a lot of listening and reading English.  Try to get more exposure.

Need more info....what kind of router do you have?  Model number?  Are you able to connect to internet?


a = b (given)\na^2 = a*b (multiply both sides by a)\na^2-b^2 = a*b-b^2 (subtract -b^2 from both sides)\n(a+b)(a-b) = b(a-b) (factor both sides)\n(a+b) = b (divide both sides by a-b)\na+a = a (because a=b)\n2a = a\n2 = 1

first line is "a=b", therefore a-b = 0\nso when it says "divide both sides by a-b", it really means "divide both sides by 0, which results in some probably invalid, and definitely not finite, values on each side"


Ever since downloading the latest version of Yahoo! IM I've been plagued with problems, including having the program crash repeatedly, not sign in, make me appear offline when I'm on (to other users), sign me out repeatedly without any apparent reason, etc. Does anybody know why Yahoo! IM is having such problems? I've rolled-back now to Version 6.1, the extra features in 7.x just aren't worth it.

Have you tried re-installing the new version? Sometimes during a download packets are lost and the program will not run properly even if the install works perfect. I suggest removing your current version of yahoo IM completely then re-download the new version. That should make it work.


I want to connect to 2 computers via remote networking. Please help me how can I do so.

For remote desktop you need to have ports forwarded on your router and have xp pro installed on the computer you want to connect to.\n\nIf you use a program called Hamachi, and UltraVNC you can connect to them remotely and securely.\n\nHamachi will establish a vpn connection between the two computers, secure and safe.  One click setup is the best part, that and free.\n\nUltraVNC will allow you to gain remote control of the computer.  \n\nIn combination you will need no ports forwarded and it will be secure.


once praying with the inmate one pats the inmate on the hand and tells him he will be okay after standing there in prayer with the inmate. One gets put under investigation for improper relationship with an inmate.

It might be fair.\n\nIf your institution has a rule, such as, "Staff shall not fraternize with inmates," praying with and touching an inmate may violate that rule.\n\nAlso, it might depend on your individual circumstances.  For example, you may have had improper relationships in the past and been warned not to interact on a personal level with the inmates.  Under that circumstance, interactions that might not be improper for other staff might be considered improper for you.


Yeah he was on Thursday (29th Dec. 2005) night. Besides a fractured neck and some facial scars, he's okay though.


My brother was overclocking his athlon XP 2700+ and was able to hit a speed of approx. 2.4GHZ.  My Athlon 64 3500+ is only running at 2.2GHZ and when I try to overclock, it overheats.  Shouldn't mine be faster?

If you rate speed by Ghz then, yes, your brother's computer is faster by 200 mhz.  Note, however, that your Athlon64 has more cache and faster bus speed which should translate in running programs faster.


Couldn't find this after a while of looking on wikipedia and googling, I wondered what it was when I saw the Iraqi turnout is expected to be well over half. I live in Australia, where it's compulsary.

Nationally, voter turnout in the United States increased to 64 percent of all adult citizens in 2004, up from 60 percent in 2000, the U.S. Census Bureau reports.

Please help me. I need a simple way to make a backdrop. Are there any good websites with directions? What should I make it out of? \nThis is for a play.

Sew light blue Sheet sets together, use cotton batting for clouds, and either real, or fake greenery for trees, just staple them on in a pattern to form outgoing branches, disguise the seams of the sheets by drawing on trunks with brown fabric paint.  Add depth by putting a cut out of building in the backgound, either painted on, or paper copied.  Place park benches on the area in front of the sheet backdrop.

I liquidate also.\nI can't give you sources, but do a search on the Internet under every category pertaining to liquidation and advertise for wares in your city Business Journal for goods.\nEthically, you should sell goods outside your suppliers marketing area.\nMany Stores buy on this secondary market.\nThink Dollar Stores.


Are the monthly dividend checks from Indian Casinos issued to their Tribal members in CA. considered income? Can they be attatched to pay arrears?

Income received from casino profits are taxable for federal tax.  As far as state tax it depends on the current deal made between the state government and your tribe.  some tribes are a state onto themselves.  since you dont say what tribe you are with go to ftb.ca.gov to find out.


Are there any sites that help. What measurements must be made?

Most guitars come in fairly standard size/shapes, which makes this sort of thing easier.\n\nAcoustic steel-string guitars tend to be mostly dreadnaught-sized, following the standard Martin shape. There are some other standardized sizes (OO, OOO, etc.) that are less common, but still standardized.\n\nElectric guitars have more random shapes, with the three "standards" being the Strat, Tele, and Les Paul. Generic electric guitar cases tend to be either sized for one of these standards, or a one-size-fits-all shape that doesn't fit your guitar snugly.\n\nThe net-net of all of this is that if you want a snugly fitting guitar case custom-ordered remotely, the vendor should tell you exactly how you can specify your guitar shape. Calton is one company that offers this, and they basically ask for a full set of measurements and a life-sized tracing of your guitar. (see below URL)\n\nIf you have a non-standard guitar and someone is promising a case that will fit it without these kinds of measurements, I wouldn't believe them.


THIS GIRL I DEEPLY LOVED DIED, AND I HAVE LOST ALOT OF WEIGHT SINCE HER DEPARTING.BUT NOW I CAN'T TELL IF I'M HUNGRY OR SORROW PAINS WHY??

wow, sorry to hear about your girl, thats sad. I dont know why you cannot tell the difference but maybe its because you are in a lot of pain right now and you feel like you are hurting all over.  Again I'm sorry for your loss, and I hope things start looking up for you soon! :)


I need to type a reference list using APA style. I am confused by the order of the information. Is there a website that will put my information in the order it is supposed to go?

This is an instruction page to teach you how to do it yourself:\n\nhttp://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_apa.html\n\nBe careful with citation-generating Web pages and software. If you don't input it exactly right or have an odd source, it will give you a wrong citation. Your teacher will probably not accept that you got it from software as a defense--they expect you to learn it yourself.


I saw a guy using one of these at school the other day. It was a handheld device with a laser pointer, which he could point at pipes on the ceiling and measure their temperature remotely.

Infrared is a type of light.  When a solid is heated, it begins to emit light.  The cooler it is, the less light it emits, and the lower the frequency of the light.  Infrared is a type of light with a low frequency that we cannot see.  Other types of invisible low frequency light include radio waves and microwaves (like in a microwave oven), while high frequncy invisible light includes ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays.  If heated enough, an object will emit light in the frequencies taht we can see (called the visible spectrum).  This is how an incandescent light works (with a glowing filament), or why logs in a fire will glow, etc.\n\nVery few things you encounter give off light in a range where you can see the light.  But everything has some heat, and the amount of infrared light they release correlates to that temperature.  So a remote temperature reading can be assessed by the amount of infrared light released.


I suspect that a friend of mine has it but he refuse to go to the doctor.

The best advice is to take the child to a developmental pediatrician or a pediatric neurologist for an evaluation. Here's a link to the criteria used to determine autism and related disorders.


But we both feel this amazing feeling when we are together. Although is more like aw fantasy but we are attracted to each other. What should I do?

I did a similiar thing (except he wasn't married) and now my husband is divorcing me. It's probably a sign your marriage is lacking and whatever benefits you are receiving from the other guy (companionship, attention, etc) is making for this. Talk to your husband, be honest about how you feel and try counseling. Good luck.

HOW TO GET A KISS WITH OUT PUSHING AND HOW TO ASK SOMEONE TOBE YOUR GIRLFRIEND WITH OUT SOUNDING CORNEY

The key is eye contact. You need to find a quiet moment when your sitting close and look into her eyes. If she looks back into yours then slowly move in for the goods. If she stays put then you pretty much got the green light. If for some reason things don't go as planned just say how pretty she looked and you just felt a need to kiss her. Then maybe say something like it was dumb of you to think she'd want to kiss a guy like you. Never underestimate the power of pity!\nGood Luck!


If you have Windows Media Player 10.  You can burn both Data & Audio CDs using that program.  It's free and you can get it at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/download/download.aspx\n\nIf you can't burn the CD, make sure that you have a CD Writer installed in your computer.  If it is not, they run pretty cheap now adays.  You can get them at a PC Recycle store if you want.\nAlso, if you do have a CD writer, make sure you have the correct driver's installed.

I think dinosaurs went extinct because of bad water. Look at the things that are still alive from the prehistoric times. Dragonflies, Crocs, Gators, Evolutions of Salamanders, Frogs, certain types of fish. I believe they all got used to the bad water and survived. Do you believe in my theory?

No. It is pretty much accepted that it was a combination of environmental change and devastating meteor strikes that wiped them out.


Thank You\n\nPrize : 10 points for the right's answer :)

This page has several, with links as well:\nhttp://www.webelements.com/webelements/elements/text/Ne/key.html\n\nHere are three at random:\n1. Origin of name: From the Greek word "neon" meaning "new"\n\n2. Liquid neon is an economical cryogenic refrigerant. It has over 40 times more refrigerating capacity per unit volume than liquid helium and more than three times that of liquid hydrogen.\n\n3. Of all the rare gases, the discharge of neon is the most intense at ordinary voltages and currents.


I know there is no correct answer here--but I just want some opinions. Which branch of military should I join and why? Without making any assumptions about me or my preferences, which is the best to join and why? \nThanks

Im active duty Navy right now.  This is what I have noticed:\nArmy- Low recruitment= high bonuses  but they have the lowest standards of living\n\nMarines- You really have to want to be a marine... they don't mess around.  Hard to get into technical programs. A lot of PT.  Harder than some branches to get promoted.\n \nNavy- A huge variety of careers.  Transition from civilian to soldier not to difficult.  At sea a lot during your first tour. Some very long days underway.\n\nCoast Guard- Cake. I was talkin to a gas turbine mechanic in the coast guard today.  He just came back from a 30 day tour which included: Key West, Fl\nCozumel, mexico some columdian island....and a couple more very cool places.  This guy is getting out in jan.  looking to make $100 per hour in miami.\n\nAir Force- My best friend has been in there for five years.  They have the best standard of living and the easiest working hours.\n\nI ranked them from worst to best in my opinion.  Hope this helps- I know it would have if I read it before I joined.  Any other questions just email me, I know someone in active duty from each branch.


do you think it is effective???\n\nwhat can you say about it???

I'm familiar with their approach to teaching math, though not with the school itself.  I have experience tutoring math to middle school and high school students.\n\nTheir approach involves self-paced learning, rote memorization, and repeated practicing of problems.  There's a defined sequence of skills that you build, and you don't move on to a new subject until you've mastered the previous one.\n\nMany people object to the idea of rote memorization.  Also, some students find doing drills boring.  I think everyone should learn math this way.  A little boredom now can prevent many years of frustration later.\n\nThe problem with current public education is that most students get to high school without having mastered the basics.  Students who get 80% correct on a test in fractions or multiplication will move forward to the next subject.  That type of automatic promotion dooms them to a cycle of frustration.  If you give a class of 10th graders a test in 7th grade level math, most will not get 100% correct, or even 90%.  There's no way they'll ever do well in math if they're lacking in fundamental skills.  They ultimately label themselves "dumb in math" and give up hope of excelling.\n\nI can't say whether any individual Kumon school is good or effective, but I strongly believe in their approach.  I've seen it work many times.


I'm a really good looking guy, intelligent, and with a very interesting life.\n\nThe problem is that I always end up looking for the wrong girl. Or a girl I have not interest asks me out, or the girls I like don't want to date me, either because they like someone better, or because they are already taken (though they like me).\nEven more, girls tend to feel like I'm "too perfect", that I'm not real. They just don't dare to get close, they want to look at me but are too shy to go further.\nEveryone keeps saying that's unbelievable that I'm single, because for how I'm I should be too busy dating or already married.\nWhat can I do?

I read your comments:\n\nI'm looking to date girls to get to know them and have fun, but I'm open to serious relationships, even to marriage.\n\nJulie, I have good manners, I'm good looking, I have good hygiene, and I'm a fun person but I have no success.\nWhat is that of trying too hard?\n\nI think that you need to display for self confidence and girls will notice you.


can someone give me some ideas to write an efficient algorithm to find prime numbers?

There are some efficient ways of finding prime numbers:\n\nThe naive way to see if a number n is prime is to divide it by all the integers from 2 to the square root of n.  If none of these divide n evenly, n is prime.\n\nThere are more sophisticated ways linked below - if you want to find all primes in a given range, the Sieve of Eratosthenes (link below) is a good way to do that.  There are also probabilistic tests - i.e. you can be 99.9% (or however much you want less than 100%) sure n is prime.  These have the general advantage of being much faster.  The Fermat primality test (link below) is a good example of these, and relatively simple to implement.

First, check for laws in your state regarding these types of business. Second, choose the right web page providers that will suit best that type of business and the one that best suits your budget. If you dont have the right money to start one, you can get a loan with the lowest interest rate in your hometown or state.

I'm pulling for the Suns this year, just as I did last year. It sucks that they got rid of Johnson but I figure they'll still do really good. they don't have Amare' right now and are already starting to do really good again. not to mention Nash is the Man! so who is everyone else pulling for?

I'm rooting for the ROCKETS !!! I know we're doing horrible right now but it's ok; they'll shake it off =p. (Plus we just won today. Yay !!) My boyfriend likes the Suns too; he loves Nash (what a traitor) haha.

I am concerned about the color of my stool. Where on the net can I find more information on this matter?

Yes, dark bowls is an indication of a high preserviative intake... Try the site below... They make a very good colon cleaner. When your colon is cleaned your bowel movemnts will return to a milky brown color which is normal.... \n\nI am not sure about dark bowels meaning you have blood in them. I have never heard or read that being a cause.


Looking for a reply that doesn't make the other person mad or hurt their feelings, but makes clear that the question is not going to be answered. Prefer not to lie.

Turning it into a joke usually works the best for me. For instance if someone asks how much is your rent, you can reply with "Too much! Way too much, in fact i think i'll stop paying it soon and live in a cardboard box", or if someone asks how much you make, i've used "not enough, i'm really not sure i'll be able to pay off my private jet any time soon". Something along those lines usually lets the person know that you are not willing to give out specifics, yet at the same time it's not rude or hurtful to them.

Choose a best answer q\n  \ncustomer tur...\n1 week ago\n\n6 day(s) left to answer. \n was the 11th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, UN-Constitutionally adopted?\nWas the Amendment UN-Constitutional because it was not in Pursuance of the Original Constitution? \n\nAdditional Details\n\nDec 24, 2005 at 10:07 am\nIn Pursiance thereof; I bealieve, means not to revise any part of the ORIGINAL\n\nDec 31, 2005 at 8:25 am\nI will withhold this deputy clerk's name, but in the federal courts today, some clerks and yes even in the United States Supreme Court, the deputy clerk uses the 11th Amendment, and even though the Amendment does not state this, the clerk states that an individual can not sue thier own state, this statement is fact. Just imagine, that the hard core confederates, thought if and when the slaves are freed, they will be able to sue us for the past treatment. The Founding Fathers correctly framed the Original Constitution. We would not have all this corruption in our government, if the this Amendment was decided to be UN-Constitutional so that the court clerks that use the law to abridge the people's rights could no longer do this. The Founding Fathers with the Original Constitution knew correctly that when the 1st Amendment is correctly followed in realation to the states, that "only honorable" persons would then be placed in the position of all our government.\n\nYou can't answer your own question.  \n \nEmail Question | Add Details | Call a Vote | Extend Expiration | Delete Question  \n       \nAnswers\n\nOrbus\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n I don't believe failure to be "in pursuance of the original constitution" can render an amendment unconstitutional.\n\nAmendments serve to permit the constitution to be modified - not just the wording, but the spirit. That's why there's such a large consensus required to ratify an amendment - there is no provision to restrict what an amendment can do.\n\nThis is perfectly intentional - the good judgement of the citizens of the United States should make it hard to pass an amendment, and the constitutional authors didn't believe their own judgment to be superior, for all time, than the judgment of the people living in that time.\n\nSo, to answer your question fully, not being in pursuance of the original constitution is in no way a detriment for an amendment - in fact, any amendment that's solely in pursuance of the original constitution is probably unneccessary.\n\nEdit:\nIn light of your revision, Asker, I belive that you disagree with all major constitutional scholars on the meaning of "in Pursuance thereof." I haven't encountered a view elsewhere that claims the Constitution as written was intended to be impossible to change, even in spirit. On the contrary, one of the often-referenced strengths of the document is that it makes radical change possible - even to itself - without reqiring that the govenment be overthrown by force.\n\nWhile I can see where your interpretation comes from, I believe you've made an error, elevating the original state of the constitution above the process it provides for its own amendment. \n\n \n \n     \njamesmusik84\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n The constitution specifically says, "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses

An amendment, duly approved by congress and ratified by the various states, by definition, cannot be unconstitutional. That is the whole point of amendments.\n\nEdit: I just wanted to point out that an amendment does not have to specifically repeal provisions in the original document. Only one amendment ever has, when prohibition was repealed, but every amendment has changed something in the original.

What are the best anti-virus softwares that are free to download on the internet? \nWhat are the best anti-virus softwares that are commercially available?\nIs it alright to use anti-virus softwares at the same time?\nWhat are the best things to do to prevent viruses from infecting our computers especially when we are using the internet?

McAfee used to have a free version but I think it now only offers a free trial period like most reputable antivirus software/companies.  Most of these companies also offer from their websites free scans of your computer without installing any software. \n\nAs for commercially available, I would stick with the well known companies that will stand behind their product and give you decent support if needed.  E.G. Norton AntiVirus, McAfee Virus Scan, and CA eTrust EZ Antivirus.\n\nI have never run multiple anti-virus packages at the same time.  I suspect some combinations will work but I would be hesitate to do this as this type of software is pervasive (i.e., installing and hooking into all parts of your system) and could cause more harm than help.  If this is something you're set on doing I would strongly recommend you find or get in writing from each company that makes the software that you plan on running can indeed run simultaneously. \n\nThe best things to do to prevent viruses is somewhat hard to answer without knowing things like what type of e-mail application you use, your level of experience, etc.  Starting with e-mail, the most common medium for viruses, you'll have better protection from e-mail viruses when using web based applications (e.g. Yahoo, Hotmail, and just about most major ISPs) vs. applications that are installed on your computer, such as Outlook or Outlook Express.  Reason being the e-mail stays on their server vs. being loaded down on your computer.  They get the virus not you.  Also, be very cautious about opening ANY attachment.  This is mostly common sense.  If you don't recognize the sender and have no idea why you're getting the e-mail in the first place, don't even open the e-mail let alone the attachment.  Don't forget to also delete the e-mail from your Trash can or Deleted folder.  If you know the sender but not sure why there's an attachment, once again, don't open it.  If you know for a fact why you're getting the e-mail AND the attachment, then and only then would I take the next step and that's use your antivirus software to scan it before opening it. \n\nAlso be judicious about what websites you visit.  Don't just click on any link from an e-mail or another website unless you know where it's going to take you.  Ask yourself is it really that important (i.e., worth the risk) I go to this website?  This is where a good firewall application helps out.  \n\nTo wrap this up I would recommend one final thing to consider.  Look at securing your entire computer and not just for viruses.  Consider looking into purchasing an entire security suite from one company (vs. independent software companies) as they usually provide antivirus, firewall, anti-spam and anti-spyware software.  (E.g. CA Internet Security Suite, Norton Internet Security, etc.)  Pros: More for your money, better overall protection, and most important, software applications that have been tested together and proven to work together.  Who needs the headache of an application corrupting another; uninstall and re-installing; hours on phone with support; etc.     \n\nHTH and good luck!


I want a new cellphone, but can't decide on a provider. Who do you think would be a good choice?

I think Cingular is best.  I get good signal everywhere (especially since they merged with AT&T Wireless).  And, you can call other Cingular owners for free.  Cingular has 51 million subscribers that you can call.


He's been when of the good guys in football, and for some reason he is made out to be a bad guy in this whole Terrel Owens thing.

Well, He throws for one of the most hated teams in the NFL. Not sure why they're hated..could be the fans, or the fact that they've never been any good until recent history. Also he was blamed by not only TO, but by his fans for losing last years super bowl...Whether it be poor clock management, or lack of energy. And I'm sure someone will say it's because he's black, which I don't agree with since Culpepper, Vick, and Brooks are all highly rated black QB's.

Numerology \nThe Hidden Meaning of Numbers\n \nWhat, exactly, is numerology? Some experts describe it as the place where mysticism meets mathematics. Others call it "metaphysical arithmatic." But, in fact, numerology is simply the study of numbers and their symbolic meanings. Numerologists believe that every number (and every letter, too) has special significance. The most significant numbers are associated with the birth date and the letters of a person's name (which are easily converted to numbers). Learning to interpret this language of numbers can reveal basic personality patterns and hidden talents. It can enhance the quality of life and lead to better decision-making skills.\n\nThe analytical system known as numerology is between three thousand and five thousand years old. Ancient civilzations such as the Chaldeans, the Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Mayans, the Chinese, and the Greeks strongly believed in the power of numbers, and each culture developed a system to interpret the significance of numbers and apply it to daily life.\n\nThe numerology system primarily used today was originally established by Pythagoras of Samos, a Greek philosopher born circa 580 B. C. Pythagoras, known in history as the Father of Mathematics, traveled widely in his quest to uncover the secrets of numbers and their relationship to universal truths. Pythagoras is said to have built his very complex philosophy on a simple premise: "Everything is [a] number, and to know numbers is to know thyself."\n\nNumerology also is closely tied with and plays an important part in the Tarot, the Major Arcana especially. The Major Arcana is numbered from 0 to 21 with each number corresponding to the meaning of the card. The Birthday Number section of this page gives descriptions of the meaning of the numbers 1-31. The meanings of the numbers 1-21 are the same as the meanings of the corresponding cards of the Major Arcana.\n\nYou have many personal numbers in Numerology, just as you have many personal signs in Astrology. These numbers are your Life Path number, Character number, Heart's Desire number, Image number, Power number, and Birthday number. There is also a general Daily Vibration number which depends on the day and is therefore the same for everyone. \n\nYou have to give your bday dude... and btw its been 3 months already...


Absolutely NOT!!!  Your statement, 'Many parties tend to keep each other honest, and would represent all levels of society.' is a the most accurate assesment of what is TRUE DEMOCRACY!!!


When you hear the word Allah, do you believe that this is a different God that Muslims believe in or that Allah is just an Arabic translation for the word God?

Its only a translation , God - Allah are the same - yours and mine and every one have the same lonely and only God - Allah.

She is not desperate though.  She doesn't get out much between school and work but she has lots to offer and she is looking for places on the web or establishment that she can visit to associate herself with black looking for single woman.

im sure if you look right in front of you you will find a good man that loves you for being you and that will treat you like the queen you are. he might not meet your standars but i promise you that you will meet someone who likes you for you not likes the others


Having problems with computer internet not wanting to dial up and once i get on computer wants to freeze up. Any adivice to help me would be appreciated. Not a computer whiz.

1) check for ventilation problems; CPUs (the core of your PC system) tend to get a lot of heat.\n2) if you have recently added new hardware (supposing you use Windows) go to "My PC(Right Mouse Click)Properties|Hardware|Device Manager", look for the new device, select its properties (again right button click, then Properties) and Disable it (there's a button just for that).\n\nIf those didn't work, then repost your question but explain you have checked for CPU temperature and new devices.\n\nHave a nice day without computer hangs!
