I want to know all about voleyball in Manchester.about schools where I can learn it

Well, 13 year old (making friends), I live in Pittsburgh, and there is a Manchester not far from here, as I'm sure there are many Manchester's in many cities. There is no reason to get snippy with a fellow answerer who could truly have wanted to help, and she was right. Manchester where? And if you want to make fun of her not knowing which Manchester, she could make fun of your grammar. Be nice.


that said "anybody want to keep in touch" and then you got an answer. in this answer it says.."me..heres my email address" and he gave it to you. then when you  email him you get a reply back that says "how did you get my email address!?!?!?! DONT EVER EMAIL ME AGAIN!!!!!!"\n\nwhat would you do next?

email the person and tell them how you got their email.

This is in regard to dna banking.  Is it ethical to store and reuse dna from a convicted felon for use in another case. Is it unlawful?

A person does not lose their right to privacy once they have served their time.  However certain states may require that if you are convicted of a sexual crime against another person that you register with the municipal government in which you live.  This can affect your privacy however it does not.  \n\nFrom the website "Online Lawyer Source"\n\n"A felony conviction is the legal guilty verdict reached in a felony criminal case. A felony is considered a serious criminal act or omission which is more severe than a misdemeanor crime. Historically, a felony conviction resulted in a forfeiture of property, dismemberment or death. A state or federal felony conviction today can lead to jail time, probation, fines, restitution, community service, mandatory drug or other rehabilitative treatment, and forfeiture of various legal rights (including the right to vote, serve on a jury, hold government positions, bear arms, and serve in the Armed Forces). \n\nThere are numerous types of criminal offenses that can be penalized through a felony conviction. The most commonly committed felonious acts include drug offenses, property offenses and financial crimes (white collar felonies), violent offences such as rape, murder, and assault with a weapon, and non-violent offenses...."\n\nHowever one has to argue whether or not the right to privacy is guaranteed regardless of a felony conviction.  I don't believe that the right to privacy is a constituional right, that is explicitly spelled out.  I believe it is an inferred right that has been granted based on the existence of other rights.  I'm not a lawyer, but to answer the question of whether or not you lose your "right to privacy" after a felony conviction my answer is no.


I've been trying to get my credit reports online through the three credit bureaus but they can't find me and I think the information is messed up.  I at one point typed my name, thinking it may have been spelled incorrectly and something popped up with my parents address but I know it wasn't them. So, I think some information got completely entered incorrectly.  How do I find out where my report is, what errors have been made, if there are mutliple reports, and then fix the errors?  Thanks

I've learned that a lot of likes and dislikes are all in the mind.  If you don't think about what you are doing, then the task becomes a lot easier.  Don't think about swallowing the pill just do it.  Take the pill, and follow it with something that you like.  Your mind will associate it with the something good, and it will become a easier task.


ideas, main points and how we solve this problem

Develop a friendly relationship. If you are a parents don’t react in front of your children. If you are children be polite and ask for explanation if your idea or thoughts don’t match with your parents.\n\nIf two people start walking form two side of a road at some point they will meet. This parents and children relationship is a mutual factor. As a parent if you can develop a friendly relation so that your children know you are the person they can go to and as a children you have to know no matter what happen your parents will be always there for you.


I use Windows XP;\njust this latest month, everytime I want to open my document, in any kind of standard microsoft program, it can't be opened.\nthe computer shows 'the file is not available'\nI click ok, but then because the file can't be opened I want to close the program, it shows: the file normal already exists, do u want to replace the existing file?\nI click no, then it shows squares to save as...\nthen I click close sign (x), it shows: changes have been made that affect the global template, Normal. do u want to save those changes?\nwhat's up with my computer?\nsomebody can help me please?

It sounds like you have a virus, or Windows XP is just being it's normal self and stuffing up.\n\nYou can try the following...\nOpen the program that the file is used in ( ie: .xls file opens with Excel, .doc opens with Word ) then use the File > Open buttons to open the file that way.\n\nOr find the file you want to open, hold down the shift button while right clicking on the file, and click on open with, choose the program.\n\nYou may want to run a repair, or uninstall, restart, then reinstall the software you use, and last of all, if all else fails, do a reinstall on Windows XP.

Windows Vista is Microsofts new full 32-bit architecture operating system. No more hybrid 16/32-bit like 98/2000/ME/XP. It has smoother graphics, a new file system called WinFS, a more perplexed format and layout of the menus. All together it's a whole new ballgame compared to Windows XP. High hardware requirements to run also.

I writing a research paper over one of the greatest plays ever 'night, Mother by Marsha Norman but I'm stuck!  I can't think of a really good thesis statement.  I need something that will jump out at my teacher and show her that I really did work hard on this because I have I'm just stuck right now.

Ok from what I remember, night, Mother is about a young woman who lives with her mother and decides to kill herself?  Correct.  If so, you could play the gendder card.  Also , think about your own relationship with your Mom, any comparisons to the day in day out life of the lead character?  Maybe a quote that really  hit you in the heart from the play.  I often like to start my papers with a quote that is also my thesis.  it shows that I know the material and that I have applied it like so.\n\nI Hope This Helps,\nAmy

Good luck with that one that can get very expensive! don't reinstall nothing whoever said that needs to go back to school. This isn't a software problem it's your bios.

How do I become a professional woman tennis player and play on the wta tour

Join a local tennis club and play as often as you can.\n\nFirst take some lessons so you learn the proper way before you develop any bad habits in your game.\n\nIf you are playing against good players and you become good your talent will show.\n\nIf you are young enough and your parents have a lot of money you can go to some good tennis schools where they have top notch coaches.\n\nIt's not easy to get to the top but even if you don't you can still become a decent player and play for the fun of it most of your life and that will be good for your health.

Are they safe ? has anybody out there met Mr or Mrs Right from off the net ?

Its safe as long as you know how to protect yourself.\n\nLets face it, if someone can't find their Mr/Mrs Right in real life, what makes you think that someone can be your Mr/Mrs Right?\n\nI don't know but then again, love works in mysterious ways.\n\nLove is omnipresence, Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.


I tried to buy adult films in Okaloosa County in Florida but I was told that a new law has been passed to not be able to do so. Was this pertaining to the whole state or just Okaloosa County? How far would I have to travel to buy adult films? Can you show me the article that says it?

I think it just okaloosa county, you can always buy over the internet or through a catalog.  Your in the panhandle right? pensacola and Panama city would probably have something, maybe maybe not.  But dont go to alabama the hardest you'll get there is penthouse, maybe a hustler.

Explain in the most detail as possible - i'm really not sure how to apply/use this.

I believe the subjunctive conjugation is for possible actions "that I may eat", "that I may have eaten" "might eat", etc. whereas the indicative is for sure: "I will eat", "I ate", "I did eat," "I am eating"... those are indicative. There is present indicative (I eat), Imperfect Indicative (I was eating), Present subjunctive ("that I may eat") and Imperfect/Past Subjunctive (that I might eat)...


The role played by the corporate structure of the Mass Media in the  \n“manufacture of consent”, as a means of population control, is reflected in its faithful propagation of the established opinion that Western policy is fundamentally benevolent in intention, is an issue of paramount importance. What role has the media played in clarifying the real principles and motives of Western policy to the public, and what does this entail for the nature of Western democracy and the role of the population in the formulation of policy? The mass media is clearly one of the most powerful institutions in society; it is, for most of the public, the ultimate source of all their information. The structure of the mass media will therefore have fundamental implications for the political and cultural orientation of the public.


I mean look at the Iraqi war they exagerate so much. this war is more politics than anything. Just a thought.

The media is just reporting the truth. You really wont find out who's telling the truth until George Bush and his Nazi Zionists followers are out of power. If you haven't noticed it yet, but they are all about oppression right here in America to enable their power base for centuries to come. They are also imposing these ideals on other nations for their own benefits. The Bushes don't mind bragging about it all either. They call it saving America from Liberals and socialists, and turning it over to Communists and Fascists to rule.


Ive turned off firewall and anti virus protection, I have the latest media player, I am running windows 2000 sp4, what is the problem?

You might like to try changing the option of your internet explorer. There is an option called security level. Set it to 'medium' because this will allow YAHOO! Music to use some needed cookies while playing videos. There might be problem to your server too, In that case, please contact your ISP. If you are behind a firewall or using a proxy server, this problem will arise too. So, check all of them out and you will be OK with it I hope.


and not us or anyone else until this 'civil war' is over

you are already doing that.before you invaded iraq,all were living in peace and harmony.who went against the law (how ever the laws were strict)was punished.but after march 2003,you made a brother kill his brother in a jungle where law naver exist under your supervission.why was the army and security forces desolved and all their assets looted.how can you build such forces in short time,whereas the old ones took 82 years to build.this is the results.mellitias,gangs,undiciplined forces.total curse.what else you want.


so I'd appreciate serious responses, not "eat less or quit eating" Thank you.

How quickly do you need to loose this weight?  My advice, is to first speak to a Dr. or nutritionist.\nBut, this is what has worked for me:\nI just purchased something called CLA from GNC.  The long name is Conjugated Linoleic Acid.  Basically what it does is turn fat from foods into a form of energy, such as glucose.  It has shown to help Type 2 Diabetes, build immune systems, help weightloss, protect against some cancers, and in some cases improve heart health.  Unfortunately, I have also read that it's not great for those with bad cholesterol.\nIt has helped me.  I've lost about 2 lbs. a week over the last couple of weeks.\nAlso, don't eat less, just eat better.  Cut out preservatives, nitrates, nitrites, salt, trans fat (anything that says  partially hydrogenated), High Frutose Corn Syrup, and soda (especially Diet sodas)etc...  Try organic foods, if you don't already.  Eat lean proteins and whatever you do, don't cut the carbs.  It's brain food and our bodies need it.  \nHonestly, I lost 65 lbs in 6 months just by eating better and taking walks.  Walking is the most effective exercise for weight loss and maintenance.  If the weather isn't good where you live, try turning your housework into a work out.\nSorry it's so long winded.  I hope it helps a bit.

Say your g/f knows that you are going to propose to her and that you have the ring but she doesnt know when you are going to pop the question. My b/f told me that he will propose to me when he is ready how do I know when that will be?(DONT be Sarcastic.

Kevin said it best. I know you are excited and hate being in suspense, but that is the whole point. He wants it to be a suprise. So if you want it to be the best don't keep asking and just wait till he does it. You will love it more. My fiance knew I was buying a ring, but had no idea when or how I would propose. I waited till I knew she had no clue and then popped the question at sunset on the beach of Lake Michigan, it was beautiful. So he will propose when the time is right just be patient.

I just found out today that my grandmother has cancer in her face. I have been fighting my cancer my whole life to be able to stay alive to spend time with my family. My grandma raised me, and I don't know what I would do when she passes. I want to know if its selfish to stop my radiation in order to have a chance to die before she does?

Going to the hospital every day for 30 or 40 days in a row for a few minutes of radiation treatment can be exhausting and depressing but I think it is important that you at least complete the radiation therapy.  If your grandmother goes ahead with treatment for her cancer, she may live a long time yet, as may you.  Try to find things you enjoy and make the most of your time.

How do you update your inventory using excel where as i have two columns Distribution and stock on hand if i have 12 in stock and i issue 6 i have 6 left but how do i make the 12 become a 6 automatically usin microsoft access. How do as i write i issue 6 it changes the twelve in stock on hand to a 6. I relly need the help whoever has the answer email me at antionette_jazzy@yahoo.com

The usual way to do this is to have 2 tables.  One table for your purchases (i.e. the items you are bringing into your inventory) and another table for sales (i.e. the items that are going out of your inventory).  The common link is a part number (i.e. some unique number to identify each item).\n\nYou need to load each item purchased and qty. into the "purchases" table and load each item sold and qty sold into the "sales" table.  If you purchase and sell the same items over and over you can just keep adding rows to your purchases and sales table.\n\nTo see what you have on-hand you make queries that sum up all the purchases by part number and sum up all the sales by part number.  You join these together and include a formula to subtract sales from purchases.  The result is what you have on hand.\n\nDoing it this way gives you a running history of what was purchased and sold.  You never have to change or replace your original data - you just let the system do the math to tell you what's on-hand.

i need it for my history project!! plss help me out

The History and Development of The Great Wall of China\nThe Great Wall of China is not a continuous wall but is a collection of short walls that often follow the crest of hills on the southern edge of the Mongolian plain. Overall, the wall extends about 1500 miles (2400 kilometers).\n\nA first set of walls, designed to keep Mongol nomads out of China, were built of earth and stones in wood frames during the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BCE).\n\nSome additions and modifications were made to these simple walls over the next millennium but the major construction of the "modern" walls began in the Ming Dynasty (1388-1644 CE).\n\nThe Ming fortifications were established in new areas from the Qin walls. They were up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) high, 15 to 30 feet (4.6 to 9.1 meters) wide at the base, and from 9 to 12 feet (2.7 to 3.7 meters) wide at the top (wide enough for marching troops or wagons). At regular intervals, guard stations and watch towers were established.\n\nSince the Great Wall was discontinuous, Mongol invaders had no trouble breaching the wall by going around it, so the wall proved unsuccessful and was eventually abandoned. Additionally, a policy of mollification during the subsequent Ch'ing Dynasty that sought to pacify the Mongol leaders through religious conversion also helped to limit the need for the wall.\n\nThrough Western contact with China from the 17th through 20th centuries, the legend of the Great Wall of China grew along with tourism to the wall. Restoration and rebuilding took place in the 20th century and in 1987 the Great Wall of China was made a World Heritage Site. Today, a portion of the Great Wall of China about 50 miles (80 km) from Beijing receives thousands of tourists each day.\n\nFor further study please check the following sites:\nhttp://geography.about.com/od/specificplacesofinterest/a/greatwall.htm\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Wall_of_China\n\nI also have included a google search check it out:\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=GGLJ,GGLJ:2006-09,GGLJ:en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=1&ct=result&cd=1&q=info+about+the+great+wall+of+china&spell=1\n\nI hope this helps. All the best for your history class. May God Bless You.


can some1 please tell me why bond duartion is calculated?

Bond duration is the easiest measure of interest rate sensitivity of a bond.  For instance, if a bond has a duration measure of 4, it means that for every 1 percentage change in the market interest rates, the bond value changes by 4%. \n\nThe duration measure is an approximation since it is trying to measure movement along the slope of a curve with a straight line equation. (If you know calculus, duration is the first derivative of the interest-price relationship).  In bond valuation, an additional measure called convexity is used to correct this difference (which again is an approximation - a second derivative)


people need to stop having sex before marrige.Your children need to be taught that sex is not important.

The reason for what men and women have sex is absolutely different. Fo men sex is just an activity that can help them to come out of stress, and rejuvinate. Whereas for women it is more initimate form of expression of love. Therefore women need commitment before they are having sex. for men sex is just sex and it can be totally devoid of any love or comittment. so man want to have sex before or after marriage. It does not really matter to them.


we have been together for almost a year...we dont see each other because of family matters...we are both inlove...im 17 and he's 18...i dont want to do things the wrong way and runaway but sometimes we miss each other so much that we get real sad and he gets depressd...we plan to get married as soon as we hit 20...but until then what can i do so my boyfriend wont be sad and get depressed????\n\nall i really want is for him to be happy cus hes a great guy and he deserves to be happy....

There is NOTHING, REPEAT NOTHING you can do to MAKE your boyfriend not sad.  The more you try the more frustrated and depressed you will become.\n\nConcentrate on improving yourself, being happy with yourself, getting to know yourself.  If he was truly in love with you he would be happy too, right?  When you both are happy with yourselves while being apart, independently, then and only then will you be able to have a healthy, deep relationship.\n\nGood Luck.

I am 35 years old and have lost 115 pounds in the last year an a half through a healthy whole food diet and exercise.  I am 5'8" tall and now weigh 135 pounds and wear sizes 2 or 4.  I typically eat lots of fruits, veggies, lean meats, whole grains and fat free dairy.  For exercise I do a mixture of various types of cardio, toning, stretching and flexibility routines.  My problem is that I am now 15 pounds UNDER my goal weight and continue to lose.  I know the simple answer is "eat more" but I feel like I am eating as much food as I can fit in to a day already and every time I try to add in more I end up just losing a little more weight anyway!  I don't want to make any drastic changes because I love my new lifestyle and don't want to give myself the opportunity to slip into old habits.  People are starting to tell me I look emaciated but my husband teases me that I eat all the time so I am definitely NOT undereating.  I have nice muscle tone but I don't like how bony I'm getting.

i would try to make gradual changes from both sides.  Eat a little more and exercise a little less.  dont stop eating and exercising.  Just do a little more of one and little less of the other.  Eating higher calorie healthy foods.  One is like peanut butter.  Mainly just finding how to create a +3500 extra calories to gain a pound per 2 weeks or a month (whatever is best for you).  go slow, eat healthy, and continue your lifestyle. outstanding weight loss!  You should be very proud of yourself. \n\ngood luck


What makes Creative Design a valid theory? As I understand it, Creative Design states that the universe is too complicated to have just happened, so there must be some driving force behind it. It seems to me that it is just Creationism removing the word God. I would be very interested to hear all sides

It basically says  that when you look at an item you can measure it and deduce whether was created with purpose or by "chance" (admitting that chance is not actually a force).\n\nFor example, a Fork looks like it was made as some sort of tool/utensil to be used for something.  We can probably conclude that it is more likely that it was created with purpose rather than an exploding peice of metal out of a car that randomly landed in that shape.\n\nFurthermore, a watch looks like it was created for a purpose (viz., to keep time).  If stumbled across a watch in a field we would conclude that it was made by a watchmaker and probably that someone had dropped it there by accident.  What we probably would not conclude is that the grass, dirt, and trees in the area evolved with the morning dew to eventually create a watch.\n\n\nNow, this sounds arbitrary but there is an actual way that it is measured.  Now, when you start doing this with the universe, and Earth especially, then things begin to look as if there is purpose driving it.  Purpose entails design and thus you have the "Creative Design" theory.\n\n\nHope that helps,\nmike


i'm doing social studies homework and I'm torn about if they should stay or go . I need someone to give me a persuasive answer to help me decide.

They came illegally, they didn't care for the welfare of our country, they should be treated liek the criminal they are. deported.\n\nAnd for the idiot up there that said should blacks go back to Africa? The blacks didn't cross the border illegally retard, they were either brought here as slaves, or they went through the legal precautions and came legally.


The police was called and came to my home because of this lie that was told to these kids dad by them. My gun was taken and I was told that even tho the officers believe me they still have to take my weapon. A cell phone looks nothing like a gun, and if these kids parents were good parents their kids wouldnt be playing on a dangerous peice of equipment on private property.


some people say the war in iraq is causing the price to go up, \n\nwhat do you think??? are is it are greedy goverment

It has a lot to do with the run up to the Iran conflict, loss of output from Iraq and the growing needs of developing countries (China & India) for petroleum.  What's really amazing is the the disinterest in the United States for alternative energy and the oil industry's continued collusion with automakers and government to keep us from using that technology.  Greed, power and stupidity sums it up nicely.


This wa mentioned on a t.v. Are there other various books left out. Very interested in bible and what it contains. Please let me know.

There were a bunch of books left out of the Bible. Mostly this was done to maintain consistancy. You can read some of them at my link. I have read most of the ones on this page and there is little "new" information.

What types have you seen your organization or those that you are familiar with use?

By long term financing, I'll give examples over 5 year amortizations -- common and preferred shares, bonds, debentures, loans from shareholders.  Bank financing usually doesn't exceed 5 years for companies.

There's a writing class I want to take this summer and I need about $500 to take it.  I've got 6 weeks to earn it somehow.  I work an office job 8-5 M-F, so anything I do would have to be in the evenings or weekends.  The clincher is that I want to be able to walk away in 6 weeks with no obligation (real or imagined) to the employer.  I'd also consider doing something at home (nothing "get rich quick" -- just make 500 in a few weeks) but I don't have much $$ to invest -- I am trying to make money after all!\n\nAs far as skills: I am a decent writer, love to read & research, have good office skills.  I'm not able to stand for long periods, so that is a limiting factor.\n\nAny ideas, Yahoo! Answers folk?

Offer your services as an editor to Jr high and high school kids for their homework and or research papers.  Do tutoring. Babysitting is good because you could do other things when the kids go to bed.  Good luck!


I would like to find out exactly waht the medicines my Dr. prescribes are and whatthe side effects might be.

That is not a valid question. However, on an average, and in general, Males tend to have better "reflexes".\n\nBut there are many women out there who are better then most males!


if so, what did you do & why? would you do it again?

I have never been in jail & Hope never to serve time, however with that said, some of the most influential people of all time have served time in jail, Jesus Christ, Paul the Apostle, Henery David Therough, Mohotma Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm Little, etc. etc. etc...If I were ever in jail I would hope that it's for a good cause & I would do it over again in a heartbeat...


How many points do players get when they win a Grand Slam or a Tier I or Tier II event?

Each player is ranked according to his total points from the four Grand Slams, the nine ATP Masters Series Tournaments and the Tennis Masters Cup of the calendar year, and his best five results from all International Series Tournaments played in the calendar year. For every Grand Slam and Tennis Masters Series Tournament for which a player is not in the Main Draw, and was not (and, in the case of a Grand Slam, would not have been, had he and all other players entered) a Main Draw Direct Acceptance on the original Acceptance List, and never became a Main Draw Direct Acceptance, the number of his results from all International Series Tournaments played in the calendar year, that count for his ranking, is increased by one. Once a player has been accepted in the Main Draw of one of these thirteen Tournaments, as a Direct Acceptance, a Qualifier, a Special Exempt or a Lucky Loser, or having accepted a Wild Card, his result in this tournament shall count for his ranking, whether or not he participates.


Christianity gave a boost to science because of its teaching that God is a God of order and not disorder and that natural laws could therefore be studied.  Sir Isaac Newton, for example, was a Christian who believed God's laws of nature could be discovered.


Can they stop me from traveling out of country because of an outstanding student loan?\nI have an outstanding ontario and federal student loan, you see im on dissability for my eyes and am unable to repay it however they wont listen to reason as the government has none so it is outstanding and i believe a portion if not all ahs been trasnfered to a collection agency. I have plans to travel to the US shortly but i dont want to buy my tickets, get to the airprot and find out that i cant leave, is it possible for them to do this?

Absolutely yes they can! They wont give you a Pass-Port if you owe child support or student loans that are delinquent, and you are an American citizen.... Just new laws this Bush administration has put in place behind our American backs..... You have to read the fine print with these jokers!


All we see on our television set, when any African nation is in the news, are hungry malnourished children, famine, wars, displaced persons .only the negative. But there is so much positive - such as world class universities and educational sinstitutions, exceptional natural and atrificial edifices and resources, exceptional people with great histories and a great future. That is all hidden from recipients of Western media organizations and their products. Is this due to bias or ignorance or prejudice or lack of interest?

Headlines are desinged to sell newspapers.  Godd news rarely makes headlines unless it has a strong local impact.  Africa, by virtue of the fact that it's so far away, and few Americans ever travel there, will rarely have posative news reported in the papers here.\n\nI don't think it's prejudicial at all, as you will see the same tendency with respect to South and Latin America, Asia, Australia and most of Europe.  Even parts of the United States rarely receive posative press in other regions.  It's just the way news is sold.

The stars burn out.The new born rushes through life to die.Metal rusts.Trees become dirt.Everything everywhere is the product of something decaying.Ya think?

There you have the 2nd (I think) law od thermodynamics.\n\nLook it up, but it's the commonly quoted one about entropy always increasing in a closed system.\n\nIn laymans terms, the amount of disorder always increases, as things naturally seek a lower energy state.  Eventually, when the universe is 'run down' it will consist only of a uniform soup of particles.\n\nFortunately we don't have to worry about that quite yet!"


...but do when another person points out the holes in their arguments?  I have posted several comments to questions that basically boil down to: "Why do Christians/ Jews/ Muslims/ Atheists/ whatever suck?", basically saying that this is ignorant and intolerant (along with other people), but there is always someone who chastises everyone else for posting things like "This is ignorant," because it is "intolerant" or violates the poster's free speech in some way.  What is the definition of free speech?  Doesn't it also cover criticisms and counter-arguments?

Why do you care?\nYou have the freedom to speak, they have the freedom to protest.\n\nThere is always some idiot, always. Free speech is not even the issue, as all 3 parties in your example have it. The issue is people with flawed arguments are everywhere.\n\nWhy are there people with flawed arguments everywhere?\nBecause of the bell curve, and the distinct lack of logic or critical thinking training.\n\nMany people, even on YA! are barely literate.\n\nDon't ask them to do algebra!\n\nBut they have opinions on everything.


well sometimes we have a secret which we can't tell anyone who knows us but we feel better if we could.\nyou can tell it here or email it to me at readmealex@yahoo.com  , you tell yours , i'll tell mine to you.


IS Mr Lee Leonard over compensated by getting $100.00 per minute 365/24/7.? It cost every family $1000.00 per year , every year. EXXON MOBIL invested only $!0Million in new exploration. Tax breaks require them to explore oil reserves.

Yes, with all the problems around the world, it's selfish of the ex-CEO to receive such an excessive gift. Record profits by oil companies, climbing gas prices and the middle-class dollar dwindling are clear consequences.\n\nI reckon the compensation package is icing on the cake.


The "N" word has been mentioned here.  Do people object to using the word "Negro"?  Many older people use the term and mean no harm.  Do you find it offensive?

It's so funny you mention that. I work with an 83 tear old man who still uses "negro" and every one thinks he's like the Grand Dragon or something , what they fail to realize that in his generation,that was the acceptable terminology.Jesse Jackson came up with African-American and most blacks,including myself really cannot accept this because we are all mixed anyway. If you took all of us and dropped us off in Africa,we'd be lost. The N word,however,is unacceptable no matter what. It has become envougue for the younger generation to use,that disgusts me.

it is for a home project similar to a tennis ball machine or a baseball pitching machine.  I have the mechanics of what i am working with but have no idea what to look for to hook up an air compressor or motor to a pair of rubber tires that spin opposite each other

Normally you have an electic motor driving one tire/wheel and the other tire is forced to rotate with it, because they are pressed together at the tread.

My 7 year old is getting his first molar.  He is experiencing a large swelling under his chin (directly under the tooth).  It is painfull for him.

Unless its getting abcested (check the gums around the tooth for any puss or if the area around his tooth is extremely red)then its probally fine, sometimes when a tooth is having a difficult time coming through it can cause some swelling around the jaw or chin and can be pretty painfull.  I would give him some tylenol for the pain as needed.

Yes, I'm talking about the Lord's prayer.  Matthew 6:9-13.  However, note verse 7.  "But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words."\n\nObviously, Jesus is showing us what things to pray for in the Lord's prayer, not to recite it word for word over and over.

They look at it as the right way to do it, therefore they repeat it. They don't see it as a guideline. \n\nI think after a while of saying it so often, it would get a little tedious, don't you think? Saying the same thing over and over without making it personal. What's the point? \n\nI think also think it's part habit. For some people, it's been ingrained into their heads that this is what they are suppossed to do and at this time.\n\nKind of like pagan beliefs, yeah?


im trying to get my linksys wireless router to work. router keeps disconnection. i tried to enter 192.168.1.1 to get into to linksys to reconnect, but when i enter the ip address in the web. its say page can't be displeyed

sometimes you have conflicting ips, go to start > run > type in cmd then when you get into the command prompt type in ipconfig /release this will release your current ip, if your router is working fine you should be able to type in the command prompt ipconfig /renew and then you should be able to get into the routers browser with 192.168.1.1\n\nin most cases if your router isnt giving you an ip thentry reseting the router itself then if nothing happens call 1 (800) 326-7114  or click here http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php?p_icf_3=1


my friend (20) and her husband (24) married last year. i wonder how long the marriage is gonna last, because i personally think age 20 is too young to get married.

There are tons of factors against their sucess, however, they can go into the relationship w/o tons of expectations from other relationships.  Plus, less baggage!


I am a 45 year old African American male, I have children from two previous relationships before giving my life to the Lord. I've been trying to find that special someone to settle down with (Marry) and even though the ratio of women to men in the black community is about 5 females to every male I'm finding it difficult to find a sister that's developed emotionally and spiritually mature to maintain and advance in a relationship in Baltimore City. I'm wondering if I should move or start dating out of my race these things has crossed my mind!

How about your Church? is there a singles group?  Visit other Churches.\nIf it is your desire to marry then there is someone for you.  God fulfills us till that person comes along.\nIt IS hard to find good Christians male or female but do not settle for less.\nAs you are in a big City, it should have many churches with single/single parent groups.


i met a girl on holiday, she is perfect for me in every way, we were only together a week, on my last night i did things for her that i have never done for previous log term girlfriends such as lay roses on the bed and give her a massage, when i had to leave she started crying and siad she loved me and amid my tears i told her the same, and i meant it, the trouble is we live 8000 miles away and both have good jobs and reasons not to uproot so i need to fall out of love, help me please its killing me.

Damn..........\nthat's a thought one. I really feel for you, but I cannot help you this time.


my girlfriend is waning to know wat would look good for her to wear were going out to eat and a movie tomorrow and she wants me to choose wat should i say??

Your answer should be "You  look awsome no matter what u wear"...

Ok, I tried to get an answer to this previously and didn't really get any help at all, so I'll try one more time.  I was wondering why my profile is blank.

You didn't state straight out what type of drive you D: drive was, but you were nice enough to say it's FAT 32 which means it must be a hard drive.\n\n1. Power off computer, unplug everything from it. Open the side of the case. Hold on the the case while making sure that your IDE ribbon is connected to your hard drive. Make that the power is connected. Make sure that the jumpers are in the correct position. Your D: drive is most likely a slave. So make sure the jumper is in the slave position. You can find which is by lookin on the hard drive. Most hard drives show you which jumper is for which setting. If it is on slave try putting it on Cable Select (CS) Put everything back together, restart the computer. Check to see if it can r/w to the drive.\n\n2. Try putting the Hard drive on the other IDE controller with your CD drive and see if it is able to work there.\n\n3. Start computer in safe mode, can you r/w to the drive? If so it's related to start up items or your currect drivers. First try reinstalling drivers to see if that fixes it. If that doesn't try disabling your programs that run when the computer starts\n\n4. Check device manager (right click "my computer" left click properties, click on the device manager tab) Make sure that your driver is properly installed. ( you can do this visually. If there is a question mark or exclamation point or red X on your hard drive, reinstall the driver)\n\n5. Check to see if there are updated drivers for your IDE controller. You can find those on the internet.\n\n6. If that doesn't work try putting the hard drive in another computer to test if it works on that computer. If it works, then the problem is solely with your system. \n\n7. You can try to run sfc.exe. click start>run..> type command click ok. at the prompt type "sfc.exe /scannow" make sure to have the Windows 98 SE disk in the CD drive when you do this. This will make sure that your windows system files are in proper working order.\n\nRecommendations: Please consider upgrading your operating system. Windows 98 SE has so many holes in it. Plus it doesn't support NTFS and it's a 16 bit OS. Plus the OS is getting on 10 years old. (Unix/linux users don't care about how old it is, cuz it will always work) Windows OS's have a relatively short shelf life.


If i do an e-book on products and take a picture of the products am i in line with copyright regarding the content of the picture?\nCould i be sued for selling the e-book containing pictures of products?\nThe product name would be very visible.

Nope.  As far as I can tell, you're completely safe.  You may not be able to use those images to publicize the book, though.  But inside the book, you should be fine.

i don't think one day would be enough to do anything. but how long would parents want to keep their children from going to school? in the past boycotts would last until they got what they wanted. so i'm just wondering how long this is going to be.

Osbaldoh- said, "Well, the organizers of this event have not yet consider how long it will take, they don't know if violence will be an option, they don't know what should the immigrants do, stay at home or protest outside."\n\n "They don't know if (Violence) will be an (Option)"\n\n Oh please, give all the true patriots the excuse we need.\n\n Violence would doom your cause in a heart beat. The government and the people would (Violently) resist you.


In its monthly accounting of the government's books, the\nTreasury Department reported Wednesday that federal spending totaled $250 billion last month, up 13.7 percent from March 2005.\n\nGovernment receipts also were up, rising 10.6 percent from a year ago, to $164.6 billion. That left a deficit for the month of $85.5 billion, a record imbalance for March.

Yes they should be fired, they used to blame it on the Democrats. who is in charge now. hmmmmmmm


I am talking from personal experience, sure, but also what I observe in others. . .

People make mistakes and they cannot forgive themselves. They try to blameselfs more to please other people. They end up hating themselves. They think everything is their own fault.


I am not Sucidal I just do it to make myself feel better I have been thru so many rehabs for it I just want an outside oppinion I dont think I am pretty and I dont think anyone really loves me what can I do sometimes I just wanna Die other times I am perfectly fine

Try and think what makes you want to do it..\nIs it because you feel you are not attractive and no-one loves you?\n\nThat can all change in a day! you are always attractive to someone and luckily different people are attracted to different things so one person may not find you attractive at all, whereas another could think you are damn sexy.\n\nWhy don't you go travelling with a friend, go to Auz its too easy to enjoy yourself there!

The pastor of my church (Catholic) doesn't seem to care for me very much.  I do a lot of volunteer work and always make it a point to be very nice to him, but he's always either indifferent or rude to me.  Should I feel badly and try and make more of an effort, or just let it go? THanks!

It's not important what another human thinks of you, but it is most important what Jehovah God thinks of you.  Remember, the identifying mark of a true Christian, as spoken by Jesus at John 13:34,35, is "I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves."  And, of course, this would be especially true for any shepherd who is taking the lead in a congregation.

The answer is simple : no, because none of the above ever existed or exist today.


i have been seeing my boyfriend for a long time though we r very much in love i just don't feel like having sex!

Try dressing up in some lingerie, not to go to bed, but to go out.  Get a nice garter belt, bra and some really nice stockings, and wear them out with a nice skirt or dress.  They make feel very sexy, and it usually shows.  Go out on a date again all dressed up.  Dinner drinks whatever, just get out, have i good time, and break the boredom.


think it is the girls fault if they are raped like they brought it on them selves

Either it is social, immaturatity or they just can't deal.\n\nI was raped ,the dective  (older man) wanted to know what I was doing in a bar.If not to meet men.\nMy BF at the time after I told him via phone" I knew it would happen to you because you are  friendly" \n\n *I am sure there are women out there who feel certain that the women it happens too bring it on themselves as well, I just haven't met any.\n\nGL\nThe most violent element in society is ignorance.  ~Emma Goldman\n\nWith the gift of listening comes the gift of healing. \nCatherine de Hueck


why a increase in fatty acid oxidation is an indication of diabetes mellitus?how the two are connected?and furthermore why ketaacidosis may result from diabetes mellitus?\npls a simple answer will be perfect.i have a lot of books in front of me but i just need a simple explanation to remember better

With diabetes the cells are unable to burn enough glucose for energy (because glucose cannot get into the cells).  The alternative to burning glucose for energy is to burn fatty acids for energy through beta oxidation.\n\nThe 'excessive' beta oxidation of fatty acids leads to a buildup of acetyl CoA.  Excess acetyl CoA is converted into ketones.  Excessive levels of ketones causes 'keto acidosis'.\n\nHope you find this helpful.


Non-believers state that Christians are intollerant, however for every Christian based question asked on the forum there are a thousand answers cursing or ridiculing the Christian thought. Who is intollerant of who?  It is obvious non-Christians are intollerant as they chose not to tolerate that belief of others. If you truly believe there is no God, why are you so angry at Christians. Leave us to our belief and ignore our questions or comments as they should not affect you the way they do, because according to you there is no God.  \n\nChristians get ridiculued for believing in Christ, however non-christians chose to belief they evolute from monkeys. Why didn't all the monkeys evolute then? Why aren't humans evolving into something else?\n\nLeave me to my Christian beliefs and I will leave you to yours, however ridiculous they might be. I will however pray that you get introduced to the power and love of Christ.

I am a Wiccan and I am not angry at Christians.  To do so would mean I would not be talking to my spouse nor the rest of my family!  I have no problem with the path each person takes to their own Gods or Goddesses.  I have friends from all religious backgrounds and I have friends that are atheist and agnostic.  I will say that I don't like people from any religion who feel it is their mission to convert me because they feel I need "saving"; but, I am not impolite nor do I talk down to them when they try to do so.  I respect others beliefs and I expect the same in return.  And, even if I don't get it in return, I will respect your right to believe as you will.\n\nBlessed Be.


Studying Darwin’s “Survival of the Fittest” it would appear that the Afro-American’s <blacks> who were taken from Africa as slaves endured a lot to survive … thereby creating them <Afro-American's> “Fittest” to make it to America … further, slavery made them even “Fitter”.  Protestant immigrants also achieved higher “Survival of the Fittest” techniques, but it appears that the Afro-American’s endured the most <diseases, slavery, and genetic selection>, making them the “Fittest”. What do you think?

Darwin's theory never said anything about 'survival of the fittest'.  That was a paraphrasing used in some reviews to explain the theory of natural selection, and is quite innaccurate.\n\nFitness in terms of natural selection ONLY means the ability to pass on an organism's genetic heritage to the next generation.  It DOES NOT connote superiority over any other organism.  By definition any organism that successfully reproduces is 'fit'.\n\nMis-applying this idea of 'Survival of the Fittest' to claim that anyone who survives must be superior has been the cause of some of the greatest evils of the 20th century.  The practice of Eugenics, extreme capitalism, Soviet communism and Nazi party doctrine all misquoted and misunderstood evolutionary theory to justify their actions.

The case involves two families wanting to adopt a child in the states custody. One of the families has summoned me for a deposition. Do they have to pay me for my time or do I keep my time running with the state?

If your involvement with the families was through your job, it is probably considered part of your work duties.  Therefore, the only compensation you should receive is your paycheck, not from the family.  Double check with your supervisor or legal counsel at your job.


Uh, the rest of the question isn't appearing. But it's an equilibrium solubility problem. Write a reaction:\n\nMgF2 --> Mg+2 + 2F-\n\nKsp = 5.52e-9\n\nFill in the values on the ICE table (I don't know them, the numbers are missing), and set an equation up.\n\nKsp = [F-]^2 * [Mg+2]\n\nSolve with the numbers from the ICE table. Remember that those concentrations in the above equation are the equilibrated concentrations, not the initial.\n\n\nHope this helped.

in business managment, profit and loss managment are important to enhance growth, in what ways?

By keeping close track of costs and revenues, management can often eek out a little more profit by the end of the reporting period.  Running more efficiently is always a goal of most businesses out there.  This helps enhance growth because the profit is growing at the fastest rate possible.


MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Possessing marijuana, cocaine and even heroin will no longer be a crime in Mexico if the drugs are carried in small amounts for personal use, under legislation passed by the Mexican Congress. \n\nADVERTISEMENT\n  \n \n \n \nThe measure given final passage by senators late on Thursday allows police to focus on their battle against major drug dealers, the government says, and President     Vicente Fox is expected to sign it into law.\n\n"This law provides more judicial tools for authorities to fight crime," presidential spokesman Ruben Aguilar said on Friday. The measure was approved earlier by the lower house.\n\nUnder the legislation, police will not penalize people for possessing up to 5 grams of marijuana, 5 grams of opium, 25 milligrams of heroin or 500 milligrams of cocaine.\n\nPeople caught with larger quantities of drugs will be treated as narcotics dealers and face increased jail terms under the plan.\n\nThe legal changes will also decriminalize the possession of limited quantities of other drugs, including LSD, hallucinogenic mushrooms, amphetamines and peyote -- a psychotropic cactus found in Mexico's northern deserts.\n\nHundreds of people, including several police officers, have been killed in the past year as drug cartels battle authorities and compete with each other for control of lucrative cocaine, marijuana and heroin smuggling routes from Mexico into the United States.

Just what we need more people to come over and use our social programs to get cleaned up from a drug habbit then stay and be supported by the US tax payers.

I think, in the end, he is going to end up going to jail on Feredal civil rights charges. I'd like you thoughts.

He probably has a case, but it's probably not going to be a good enough case to merit a conviction.  And I'd be a lot more sympathetic to these "innocent white boys", if lacrosse players didn't tend to be such insufferable pricks.

You do not know which one is which.  One door leads to certain death, while the other leads to riches beyond your wildest dreams.  Again, you do not now which one is which.  You can ask One question, what question do you ask, and which door do you ask it to, so that you can determine which is the correct door to take.\n\nThe door's are numbered 1 and 2.  I know which one is the correct answer, so you need to explain it and get the riches.  the riches in this case....10 pts.

ask which door the other door would tell you to go throughm then oick the other one - either way it's going to be a lie so pick the other one and you're safe!

Go to sporting goods dept at discount store; you should find lots of stuff for $20.  a compass, a stadium seat,\na book about local sites he could hike to.  Really need more info about Dad.  He would proably enjoy going on a hike with you (some personal time for you both).


I've smoked weed everyday 4 over a year.

30-35 days. Drink lots of water and if you can take Lasix to help flush your system. Goldenseal works some, too, but isn't as reliable. Stopping smoking now is a good thing to do, as it does do a lot of damage to the cognitive system. It seems like an innocuous drug, but it really isn't. I've seen the long term damage that can be done and if you reproduce while it's in your system you set the child up for all kind of learning and mental issues (that includes the male having it in his system at conception).


My wife was so in love with me or so I though. We been married 8 months now. And we are just not getting along the sex was great 2 or 3 times a day now its 1 time a week. We done talk about spliting up. I was maiired before and so was she. She gets so mad at me for not doing things to the house but we do not have the money to do to the remodling right now. It was the house me and the ex lived in. I think that a lot of it she says i don't make her feel speical any more, heres the think I didn't act like i even cared about to start with now i shower her with love and I think thats what some of it is. one more thing she ask to put her name on the Deed of the home I said no and its been a issue ever since. Should I have put her name on the Deed ??she does not give me any money at all to help out around the houes I have to pay all the bills!\nwell I could type a book here. Help!!!!!

dude, if she is  bitching about $ then she doesn't love you! Did she love you to begin with is the question? Did she marry you thinking you were rich i wonder. Did she marry you for convenience...? I have to wonder about that too....sorry man but if she loved you she would not care if she was on a deed or not and wouldn't honder you to get the house remodelled when you two cannot afford it and lastly....she SHOULD be helping with the bills......she wants her cake and eat it too.....Divorce her butt! Tell her to find another life and tell her " I love you but not enough to put up with crap baby...bye". IF you say that you will see a turn around. You will be calling her bluff sorta speak....hahha she will fumble over herself so fast...trust me. Just do what you want of course...but know if you two bring a kid into this world....it will only get worse. Take care dude and good luck........You deserve better.


This person claims to be 20-24 according to DNA results but appears to be a child and says she weighs 73 lbs.  Claims she was in a cult being used by men for money.  That her mom was killed and put in a shreeder.  Whe she was sneeked out of the cult by an undercover Fed Marshal and rescued that DNA of parts of he mom were identified.  Has a 360 Id and a group.  Personal questions on IM really get far out.  Suspect this is a total fake.  As far as I know DNA doesn't change with age it is a permanent DNA fingerprint.  Her ID is available on request.

Be careful; people can get away with huge lies, online.\n\nKenlas is referring to telomeres.  These are the ends of DNA strands (in chromosomes) which are not copied when cells divide  Each generation of cells has shorter telomeres.  It will not tell you how many years the person has lived, but it gives some info on how many times their cells have divided, so this gives a very approximate age.\n\nBTW, AFAIK the telomeres shorten because the DNA - copying complex in the nucleus needs to bind to a certain length of DNA to work, but is can only copy the sequence as it passes through the middle of the complex.  When it gets __ near __ the end, it falls off before it copies right __ to __ the end of the DNA.  So the daughter strand of DNA is slightly shorter than the one that was being copied.\n\nWhen sperm and ova are being formed, they have extra telomeres added (by telomerase) so the new organism starts off with a good set of telomeres.


We were told that this was a war of choice.  We were told that we would fight this war at a time and place of our choosing.  We were told that the commanders on the ground picked the numbers of troops and had full control over how we would fight this war, and said it could be done quickly and with minimal loss of life.  We were told that the terrorists in Iraq stood no chance against our military might.  We are constantly told that the military is doing a great job in Iraq.  We are told that the military is recieving every single thing it needs to win.  \n\nIf all that is true, then why hasn't the US won the Iraq War?

By the "Iraq War", I will -assume- you mean the fight between the Iraqi insurgency (and Al Qaeda terrorists) vs. US (and Iraqi Defense Forces). Occupation, police action, whatever you want to call it.\n\nThe reason why we cannot defeat the insurgency is because the United States has not learned much from history (I would place most of the blame on the incompetent civilian leadership, regardless of party).\n\nThe civilian leadership did not have a contigency plan that geared towards reconstruction and defeating a potential insurgency. Their love of their doctrine and dreams blinded them as to what might happen. The military leadership, trained to make Plan Bs, tried to warn the civilian leadership of their folly, but were ignored. Remember General Shinseki telling Rumsfeld that at several hundred thousand US troops would be needed to pacify Iraq? Well, he is suspected of having been sacked (officially he "retired").\n\nNext, after the invasion, Iraq's infrastructure was destroyed by "shock and awe," followed by tensions between the Iraqis and the US troops. Remember that the civilian leadership thought that when the US came in the Iraqis would celebrate us as liberators? Well, Iraqis know their history. They know the West's past involvement in the Middle East, known as colonialism. They remember what the French did in Egypt. They remember what the British did in Iraq. The Iraqis did not trust us either nor do they like us (traditional vs modern culture clash). Also, the Iraqis lost power and water and all the essentials for everyday life due to all the bombing campaigns. These factors combined created a massive backlash against the US presence.\n\nAlso, the military uses conventional strategy and tactics to deal with its enemies, the way it has been trained. Unfortunately, most of this is outdated WWI/WWII military thought, which some call "Second Generation Warfare" (the German blitzkrieg is an example of Third Generation Warfare, and the VC element in Vietnam is an example of Fourth Generation Warfare). This is in layman terms of taking ground and destroying the enemy with superior firepower. Unfortunately, such conventional strategy/tactics do not work when you are facing insurgents and terrorists. When dealing with insurgents and terrorists kinetically (means blowing things up, shooting things up, arresting everyone in sight, etc), you can cause massive damage in the civilian infrastructure and create a large amount of collateral damage. This enrages the people, who would then decide to shelter the insurgents and terrorists from the US military, because they want the Americans out. Mao's fish in water illustration. As well, a lack of cultural understanding also makes the tensions escalate. When the Americans carried out their cordon and searches, they disrespected Iraqi customs and violated individual Iraqi's honor. Such gross disrespect of another's culture (especially when you deal with traditional people) is unforgivable, and makes more enemies than allies. This can fuel the insurgency and create support for it.\n\nLastly, our grand strategy must put emphasis on political, social, and economic issues, as opposed to military issues. The goal should be to gain the moral high ground and to use more psychological warfare as opposed to physical warfare. By forcing Iraqis to create a "democracy" (which is actually a republic; democracy is the wrong term to use if you have read Madison's Federalist #10), we are ignoring that these people have a traditional culture who have not been given the time to embrace Western ideals. Remember in history, it has taken several hundred years for the West to develop and embrace Western ideals such as "democracy" and "equality" and etc. Now we expect Iraq to eat all this in one or two decades? Also, we need to focus on at least giving the Iraqis the basic necessities in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs


Just wondering what else i can come up with that is interesting besides the infor I have, doing an essay for his 390

Hi Lynda. You replied/answered my question about the idiot who thinks he can be special forces without training. So, I'm answering yours, but I first want to thank you and your husband for your service to our country. I know what it is to be a woman in a man's job/world. I was a cop. I know how difficult it can be. You all made us so proud here at home with your courage and your bravery so from the bottom of my heart, I thank you. All of our soldiers, including you my dear, are in my prayers and I'm so proud you all. Okay, now, here are some links to your question here. I don't know if it'll help but I hope it does. Also, if you need to talk, my email is rilti8@sbcglobal.net.

May God protect and keep you and yours and the rest of our soldiers no matter who or where they might be.


How do I figure what return are they earning for investors who buy them today.

If they were yielding 9% on a par of $50, then they pay $4.50 annually per share in dividends. $4.50/$60 is a return of 7.5%.

Cameron. Because he's like a tory version of Tony Blair.


Was President Bush in whole or in part responsible for the initiation of the Iraqi war and the events currently happening in Iraq?

Legal, yes.   The primary reason for the initiation of the war in Iraq was due to Saddam Hussiens violations of United Nations Security Resolutions.   I believe he was in violation of 15 of them for over 11 years.   The biggest of those violations was failing to allow weapons inspectors inside his country to make sure he didn't have any weapons of mass destruction or other chemical and biological weapons.    He was warned for 11 years, and did not care.   9/11 happened and woke the United States up to the fact that these 3rd world country tyrants can no longer get away with what they are doing.   George W. again, through the United Nations warned Saddam that we were no longer going to put up with his actions and gave him a deadline to comply with all the resolutions.   Saddam openly stated that he didn't have to listen to the world and would do what he wanted.   George W. gave Saddam a deadline and simply said, "On this day, or any day after that..the United States is going to come in and take you out of power and once and for all find and destroy any weapons of mass destruction."   Saddam laughed.  The United Nations warned the United States not to take any action again Iraq.   The deadline approached and Saddam made an attempt to show compliance with UN Resolutions with a data book of over 14,000 pages.   The US Studied the book.   British intelligence and Egyptian Intelligence convinced the United States that Iraq did have WMD's.   The 14,000 page document was proven to be over 10 years old and mostly useless information.   George W. went back to the UN and was told to stand down and not take action against Iraq.   George W. went to Congress and Congress supported him with the invasion and subsequent liberation of Iraq from Saddam.   \n\nWhile no WMDs were found, many weapons that put him in violation of UN Resolutions were found, including intermediately ranged missles and chemical and biological weapons.   Other intelligence documents were found indicating that Hussien had moved his nuclear programs to Libya and his hardware to Syria.   Shortly after the invasion of Iraq, Liby turned over ALL of it's nuclean information that they claim was theirs, and not Saddam's.  \n\nIt's anyone guess, and easy to bash Bush.   But if the truth has to be know...it's a great thing to have a president with a set of balls that's not afraid to go agains the United Nations and do what is actually best for national security and the freedoms we enjoy here in the United States.


That is,crucifixion with the recipients of this form of justice alignigning our cities major streets as an example to the rest of us?\nIf capital punishment is perfectly just,what would be wrong with this and why ?\nIf the death penalty is acceptable, why should the population be shieded from the reality of it ?

Personally i believe in capital punishment. I also believe that it is used to liberally in USA. Often times people go to death sentence on circumstantial evidence, or when they are retarded. \nOn the other hand SOME criminals truly deserve to DIE. If you are a BOUND TORTURE KILL serial murderer who has suffocated 10 people for sexual gratification -- you deserve to die. If you are a mastermind of genocide -- you deserve to die. If you are Oklahoma city bomber who has murdered 167 people with a bomb -- you deserve to die. No amount of jail time will atone for crimes like that.\n\nSo Back to your question. If we limit execution to Egregious cases that truly shock the conscience then i believe some form of speedy and public execution might be appropriate. Crucifixion of course is going to far as it is clearly cruel and unusual. On the other hand televising the normal mode of execution like lethal injection might be entirely appropriate.


I've seen ants fall from our balcony, 12 feet to the concrete ground and run away.  there must be a limit.

Because the ant has such a large surface area comparative to its mass, it's likely that at any height on Earth when atmosphere is present that an ant will survive the fall.\n\nThere are several species of ant which are able to glide, maneuvering their body as they fall.  These are mostly tree-dwelling species in places like the Amazon rainforest.  If they happen to fall from a tree, they simply glide back to the trunk of the tree and climb back up.

She is currently filming 10,000 B.C., due out some time next year.


i need to complete ma education but am almost droping out because of lack of aguardian. In therefore requesting any one who is able to come to ma rescue.

you could consider yourself independent for financial aid purposes and get free money, I guess


i live in a college town and there are a ton of rental properties around and i want a peice of that pie. how do i go about buying with little money down

I think most of the no money down, subject to, and lease option stuff is crap.  Perhaps after you have gained experience you can get deals no money down.  I lived in a college town also and saw the same thing happening in my town.  Rentals were everywhere.  I got started in real estate as a birddog.  I made $500 finding leads for an investor.  $10/ per lead he didn't have to close for me to be compensated.  There are only so many investment opportunities in one market though, so now after much debate I am becoming a realtor. Then I plan on being a commercial broker and THEN an investor. It is gonna take a while. I really think that you need the money/ experience/ connections/knowledge before getting into such a heavy endeavor with such thick legal implications and even scarier liabilities/consequences. If you don't know what you are doing you can get hauled off to jail for 3rd degree felonies with that no money down garbage.  Besides that most single family homes make next to no cashflow, especially with the way interest rates are going up. HARD WORK HARD WORK HARD WORK!


my son is 8 y/o seems small to his age is there any meds or physical exercize proven efective to inc. his height


I'M SICK TO MY STOMACH NOW \n\nhttp://media.spikedhumor.com/24864/insane_woman_on_fox_news.wmv \n\nand if this doesn't work, search on google for Shirley Phelps-Roper. Our soldiers do NOT deserve this kind of disrespect their their funerals. granted, we may not agree with the war, but our troops should not suffer immense disgrace like this. I would like you guys to share this with others and your opinions on this are appreciated.\n\nhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12071434/

The Phelps family are a bunch of obese, insane, publicity hounds that go to funerals and make asses of themselves for a living. They live in an armed compound and all of them who had law licenses have been disbarred. They're sick, always have been and are one of the few examples of abuse of freedom of religion and expression. The 1st Amendment does not protect idiots like the Phelps'.\n\nThey did the same thing at Governor Carnahan's funeral in Missouri in 2000. The man died in a plane crash just before the election and they demonstrated in front of his grieving family and a grieving state claiming he went to hell because he did not oppose gay rights legislation.\n\nI'll dance at Fred Phelps's funeral!\n\nThey're so brave they don't even put their address on their website. Hmmm. Tell them how you feel: 3701 SW 12th St, Topeka, KS 66604


i am asking about the movie that is still filming,the name of movie will be harry potter and the order of phoniex, filming daniel radcliff as harry potter.

Dont know\nI think he finally could, his hair had to be a certain way in the first few films (based on the books) but for the 5th movie I dont think it will matter. There is so much going on in the story (again, based on the book) his hair isn't going to be of much concern. \n\nI hope that they can finish making the movies before the kids get too old. I cant imagine any other actors taking any of the leading actors places. \nOne good thing is that the writer of this series actually lets her characters grow and age, so the main characters do not stay one age infinately, which is something that happens in other written series. So to see Harry Potter at 18 will follow the storyline int he series, it wont be a shock. (even if Daniel Radcliff is in his early 20's, he can still play an 18 year old. Anyone remember the 30-somethings that played the 90210 high school students?)


My husband's ex-wife has a new husband and he threatened to beat up my husband if my husband doesn't let her see their son. They have a possible meeting in June. Can I have a police officer there to ensure his and my stepson's safety.

Yes I do! Fell instantly in love with my husband 43 years ago and still love him. I know it sounds obvious, but just try to relax and be yourself. Or maybe put something in writing and give it to her with a bunch of flowers. Good luck. LYA
