Used to live in the Oswego/Yorkville area then moved to Florida in the early to mid 80's.  I was going to run away from home with her in the 6th grade!  :)  I miss her and would like to try to find her...I've looked everywhere, but she may have moved and/or gotten married, so I'm at a wall.

I'm curious as to whether or not people actually find people by asking strangers on answers.  Did you try googling her name?  Or joining classmates.com?  Myspace.com or hi5.com have a large community of older people on there.  Good luck.


The periderm is the outer bark of a tree.The periderm is a secondary tissue that replaces epidermis in roots and stems, and which consists of phellem, phellogen, and phelloderm (it includes dead tissues). while the inner bark is called the phloem,It conducts usable food from the leaves to the cambium to nourish it or to storage areas in the wood (it includes living tissues)and consists of  of alternating wedges of sieve tube tissue and radial parenchyma, most of the former crushed by secondary growth.

this must be one of the worlds oldest mysteries but why are farts more odorous in the shower than at any other time?what's your theory?

Hi friend! I think that maybe you smell all the nice smells from the products in your shower, and in comparison the other smells seem worse. The steam thing sounds credible too.


yes i need help really badly...so does anyone know?

The same as in any other member of life that has one. To make the lungs work.

it is true that... people in america (white people) dun like indians? is it that there is still racial discrimination.. and wot should a student do to adjust well who is goin as a fresh to usa for studies in a coll? will people accept them?or it's that he gets a hard time beings freinds wiht people... how friendly are people in usa?

It all depends on your attitude dude. I'm an indian, and i swear, I have racist white american friends!!!!!!!!!!!! It all depends on the way you carry yourself - you cant win em all, you dont lose em all either. N yea, dont go to states with this silly thought in your mind that every american is a racist and doesnt like indians! go with a positive attitude, n nvr judge a person as a racist until he proves it! all the best, americans are a friendly bunch. you'll love em!


do u think it cud b possible that our own species ( human race) are in fact the alien species on this planet? wen u think of how different we are to every other living species here and no one knows for sure how or why we are here.....wot do u think?

I think that the grey 'aliens' are in fact from Earth. My theory is kinda kooky, but Ive been reading into ufos, alien abductions, and stuff for many years. \nIntelligent, bipedal, small dinosaurs got trapped inside of deep caves millions and millions of years ago. They survived, thrived, and adapted to the environment of the deep. They eventually developed a form of science and discovered genetic engineering. They built the flying saucers, created the grey 'aliens' and bigfoots and may have even created us. Some of them are able to take human form and have always been a part of our societies and politics and religeons since our earliest days. They continue to require our genetic matireal however. They are really worried about nuclear weapons because they are affected by underground nuclear blasts and fall-out will hurt them too.


I have a friend that’s trying to get a diploma he can't make a decision of he wants to get a GED or a high school diplomas. Can you get the same amount of success having either one or is one better than the other. And does it make a difference at all to get a diploma off the internet even if the school is accredited

Its easier to obtain the HS diploma; stay in school.


I don't know what the problem is cos I have scanned my OS, which is windows xp pro with sp2 and got rid of some spyware, but this yahoo thing is just consistently annoying me v v much everyday. I m using the new yahoo messenger 7.5 with voice (probably with the most bugs). While I am chatting with a frd, it suddenly crashes and says it has encountered a problem and needs to close. This is also happeneing right now when I again tried to access a chatroom. I am extremely frustrated with this. Can someone help me with this one? Thanks. (I am posting this question again, because I got just one reply last time and that didnt work for me)

uninstall the messenger and install a new messenger. It will stop

question 1: My girlfriend has had 4 sexual parnters before me. I asked her to tell me where I was on penis size to her other partner. She said I was in 2nd Place when it came to penis size. I asked her if she liked sex better with the guy that had a bigger penis then me. She said no and that Mine Fixes perfectly into her. She also said that I was the first guy to ever get her to have an organizm. And that she has never loved a guy like this before. The problem is, is that she has a history in the relationship of lieing to me to save my feeling from getting hurt. So How do I know if you is being honest when it comes to stuff like that. I have asked her many times becuz I just could not believe it but she said it was the truth...  2nd Question: She has alot of excess skin (Lips for stang) hanging from her vagina. She has told me that her and an EX-boyfriend about sex like everyday for a year. Could that be the cause of it? and how does that excess skin develope and come to be there?

You have no way of knowing whether what she is saying is the truth, you'll just have to trust her.Need to realize in life, no matter how close you are to someone, you'll never really know what they're thinking, that's just the way life is. I don't think any of her "excess skin" ,as you put it, is from too much physical recreation. It's probably something genetic, and if it doesn't bother her{like in a painful, medical way} it shouldn't bother you. A couple things women pick up on quick is  jealousy and insecurity, and it's generally not perceived by them as positive traits. It sounds to me like you should have ONE long talk about this with her, and then drop it,'cause if you keep bringing it up, she's going to drop you.


im friends with this guy. but i also like him. but there are two little problems. my parents, well at least my dad, doesn't think that i should have a boyfriend in the 7th grade. well just as long as i talk to them first about it. but also he is already going out with one of my friends. but then again when he wasnt going out with her he would always like look at me in the hallways. but it wasnt just like a glance it was a stare/glance thing. like he would b walking with a bunch of his other friends and then he would look up and kind of stare at me but not stare stare. i hope u understand what im trying to say. but i mean idk if he likes me or not. but how do i find out??

Lol, u sound SHY AS HELL, and so does this boy.  Just approach him sometime like after school or before and ask him about anything, like the weather, a song u like, a tv show, something.  Ask if he heard about something(some gossip)  You will be able to read him like a book after this.  \n1.If he kinda clams up and stumbles with lots of smiling and laughing, he's probably too shy to admit he really likes you, but he does.\n2.If he short answers your questions with normal posture/facial expressions, (example: u: "do u like that new eminem song? i think the best part is his solo about him gettin another drink, it flows so well, and i find myself dancing to it sometimes! its so coool!" him:"i dont  know.")  This is bad, hes probably not interested.  (note, if he short answers your questions with laughing/smiling this could be same as #1)\n3. If he totally ignores you, or pretends he doesn't hear you then...  Either he is so nervous that he probably can't even go to the bathroom in a public place, or he is just a total asshole, and not worth your time.\n4. If he talks back and seems interested in your topics, this is a good thing.  Sometimes a guy or girl will even pretend to like something just so that someone from the opposite sex will 'like' them.  When/if he does this, just talk to him like he's one of your friends, or your brother or something.  Good relationships stem off of ease of communication and sharing interests.\n\n\nLol good luck, and for the bonus advice:\n-Try to meet him when he's alone, or semi alone anyways, not when he's with 10 of his friends in the hallway like you described earlier.   \n-If you find yourself cute or sexy, you should flirt with him and you can guage his reaction from this as well.  An easy way to flirt would be to accidentally drop something near him and giggle and say sorry, just to get him to look at you.  REMEMBER_____   SMILE this is super important!\n\n\nGood luck again with your ventures and in the future as well.


I haven't had my period for 2 months and have had really bad nausea, bad headaches and tender breasts. I've taken 3 HPT and they come out negative.

You absolutely can become pregnant after tubal ligation. Approximately 1 out of 200 women who have had a tubal ligation will get pregnant [Medline]. Have your doctor give you a blood test ASAP to rule it out, as the rate of ectopic pregnancy risk is drastically increased in women who have undergone TL [about 7 ectopic pregnancies per 1,000 procedures - may not seem like a lot unless you are the one w/the ectopic]. In any event, you need to make sure, as ectopics don't always show up on a HPT and it's often ignored until it reaches the emergency stage when the tube ruptures.  Good luck, I hope it turns out as you want.


I'd say that you already know.  If my memory serves (at 6 AM) it is an equation where you can determine the unknown if you have two values.  The equation can be expresssed multiple ways.  Ohms are given in impedance or interference/resistance, and I think the other values are volts(or watts) and amperage (amps).  Whether it's home, commercial or electronics, the law applies to the flow  of electron in any circuit.


all are RIDDLES... nothing serious.. good luck!

Alright, well this girl named Alishia hugged my boyfriend at school a few months back. Me and "Alishia" aren't very good friends...let's just say...she hates me and I hate her. I think she hates me because she LOVES my boyfriend! I mean really...she KNOWS I am going out with him but she constantly flirts with him and hangs around him. She even wrote "I love you!" in his year book for goodness sakes! I asked my boyfriend if I could at least yell at her or tell her to back off, and he simply said "No." he was practically defending her! What should I do about this? School if over for me but I am still worring! What if he dumps me for her?


when we type in a web address, why does it take a while to load your page even on broadband?

maybe because many people are using the internet with you on the same time or maybe becuase in this site it ahs many stuff that takes times to perview


considering the damage it caused in these countries and the exploitation of ressources and humans ........and that over centuries

they should practically handover their entire GDP of a decade, the rest will be forgiven. japan was compensated and germany is still paying for their 2nd world war attrocities....queen elizabeth still wears stolen african gold she inherited!! american indians should be allowed to hold a referendum on whether to allow the uninvited to go or stay........so on


a third low ranking title, that some of the more hungry guys, would take pride in putting it in their waist...After all a wrestler's main goal is to win titles, for some not only titles, but also various titles...To be a grandslam champ....ehe, it's like the main prize in house shows, but would also be seen in both Raw and Smackdown, and can be defended in PPVs. Think about Snitsky, Venis, Eugene, Conway and other regular house wrestlers heating things up, and would make these house shows more interesting to watch, rather than just seeing a house wrestler beat up a first timer, or endless reviews...man that's why they have the afterburn and bottomline right??? I would really love to see that...

That is one big YES. I would like to see both of those titles come back again. Especially the Hardcore Title.


Spoil me with some of your knowledge about our beautiful sign!

Gemini\n\nThe third sign of the zodiac, Gemini is ruled by Mercury which represents intelligence inside matter. The glyph of Gemini symbolizes two pieces of wood bound together. \n\nIn ancient times this was seen to signify the conflicts arising from contradictory mental processes. Geminis establish their relationship between the self and material substance through a balance of opposing thoughts. This bond may also be interpreted as the link between rhythm and form.\n\n                   Personal Traits\n\nThe Geminis Interact with the environment, investigate, learn, know and exchang ideas. The intellect dominates Gemini, and all things intellectual are valued greatly by them. As communication is also of importance to Geminis, knowledge is never a thing to be hoarded. Rarely is a Gemini more entertained than in the midst of exchanging ideas with others of an intellectual nature.\n\nBeing the most versatile of the signs, Geminis are seldom what they seem to be. Chameleon like, they will take a stand, voice an opinion, decide on an option and then completely change their mind tomorrow. Nothing is ever written in stone by the Gemini. They are truly a free soul, driven by curiosity and a desire to know . They usually have several things going at once, and within such chaos, they thrive.\nGeminis are bright, witty, entertaining and rarely get deeply absorbed in any one task. They prefer to skim the surface of many things, than to get deeply involved in any one particular interest.Even if they do become drawn into something, they always feel they are missing out something. Anything they haven't touched intrigue them the most.\n\nPositive Traits \n\nGeminis are optimistic people. All things are fresh and fascinating for the them. They possess great enthusiasm. Routine is boring for them. Restless, with an active imagination and a keen intellect, life must be lived to the fullest for theGeminis. Gemini analyzes everything. Gemini's are usually affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, thoughtful and superficial.\n\nGeminis are expressive folk, and this they manifest beyond mere speech. Often gifted with their hands, it seems whatever they touch does turn to gold. Their love of communication may also express itself as an affinity for languages. Geminis have a knack of making life a little more interesting for the rest of the zodiacs.\n\nMain positive traits: Versatile, adaptable, inquisitive, intelligent, quick to learn. \n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n                 Negative Traits\n\nOn the turn of a moment, Gemini can become cynical, biting, moody and quickly angered. Inseparable as two sides of a coin, those born in this sign can be dazzling and irresistible or inconstant and irrational.Once something is familiar , the interest wears thin and the need for new worlds to investigate grows strong again. Geminis are fickle. This is not intentional, it is their basic nature to be so. \n\nMain negative traits: Superficial, short attention span, restless, nervous, nervous, lacks concentration, conniving. \n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n                         Lucky stone \n\n                                           \n\n                                                Pearl\n\nWould you believe this beautiful and sort after gem is composed primarily of the salt calcium carbonate! It is even classed as "organic" as it is derived from animals and plants. Other members of this class include coral and amber.\n\nAdvise for the Geminis\n\nGeminis generally have a sensitive nervous system, and don't fare well under too much stress. As Geminis considers danger about as seriously as they consider the rest of life, there is a need to restrain a sense of heroic invincibility. \nGeminis are likely to ahve delicacy with the digestive organs and hence they should give due importnace to it. They are also rather inc


so, i got a sunburn on my legs... i have been swollen up from my thighs all the way down to my toes. The swelling on my ankles have alreay bruised... everytime i stand up, the blood rushes to my legs and it hurts like crazy... is this normal or should i go to the doctor? it seem to be subsiding a little

it depends on how much swelling it is. a little bit of swelling is common on sunburned areas because your fluids (mostly water) are being sent to that area to replenish the cells that have dried up from the sun. But if its causing you pain then u might want to see a doctor.


Much has been made about the lack of services available for military personnel, including low pay, health services when people come back from war, support for families, etc. I am hoping the allegations are exaggerated. Any military out there have anything to say? Thanks.

As a member of the US Army for over 18 years I can say that alot of what you hear is not true. While it is true that the military has the least benefits than any other Federal Government branch. When people are discharged from Active Duty they have a 6 month window to take care of any medical conditions that have occurred. \nNow the pay leaves something to be desired. You can't work in the military for the money, unless you are miserly and live on base or post and eat in the Mess Facilities.\n  Now that I have reached a higher rank, the money is better and the housing allowances are better. Separation pay is good, if you are married. \n  I have been wounded four times in combat wiTh the US Army and have fought a medical discharge twice for the last injury to my foot. \n  Now, I have known guys that take a discharge because they don't want to fight it. Some stay in and some go. But, God willing, I will stay for as long as I can.\nBut, there will always be people who feel the US Government cheated them, It may be true or it may not. But my advice I give to all that feel that they shouldn't be discharged, is hire an attorney. I did and finally after I reached my 18th year I was saved. I got my lawyer to argue my point and to delay a hearing until I reached my 18th year, where the Military cannot discharge me, if my injury was duty related.


My mother in law to be's husband has just walked out on her after 11 years of marrige and has left her devestated can anyone give me some info on what would be the right things to say to her without offending her ppppplllllleeeeeeaaaaassssseeeee

Mostly, your future mother-in-law will just need someone who will listen.  Just let her express her feelings as she has to grieve over love and marriage lost.\n\nFor those who are telling him to get his future \nmother-in-law in line, that isn't what the question was.  Don't you read?  Also, not all mother-in-laws are interfering and, contrary to stereotyping, many men/women love their mother-in-laws.  Makes me wonder how the young can be so jaded that they assume all mother-in-laws fit the phony stereotype.  Grow up!


I work for one of the well know Pest Control companys in the country. I'm in sales and my job is to go to peoples homes and sell the treatments. The way it works is, I have to make my draw of the month first before I get commision on my sales. I'm the best sales person in the region right now but my boss just seem unsatisfy with my work. When I don't get sales he thinks I'm taking a vacation. I'm busting my butt off and also, before I get pay for the jobs I sold, the work have to be done first. They're short of technicians and sometimes he would ask me to go do the job myself. This happen for the 4th time now. I was hired to be the sales person but now, I have to go do the technicians job too in order for me to get pay. The worse thing is, I don't get pay for doing the technicians job. I feel like I have to do everything on order to get pay the money I already earned. His boss would get on his asss for being so freakin unorganized and then he would get my asss too. What should I do?

Is it possible to change jobs and move to a competitor?  Or, another sales job in a different industry?  Being able to sell is an amazing talent to have and very transferable.  \n\nIf you're the best sales person in the region, that's a fact and it doesn't matter what your boss says.  Sometimes you just have a crappy boss who is never pleased with what you do.  The problem is the boss and it's probably because they feel insecure.  Try to find compassion for the other person (i.e., maybe he's scared of losing his job, maybe he was picked on in school and you remind him of someone, etc.).  \n\nAlso, instead of worrying what they think, focus on what you know about yourself.  In your case, you know you're the top sales person.  Own it.  Be proud of it.  Broadcast it.\n\nSometimes, managing perceptions is all it takes.  Put some effort into communicating all the hard work you do.  If you don't get sales, talk about all the calls you made and then just shrug it off.  \n\nYou could also try speaking with your boss about this issue.  However, the key is to not do it when you're pissed off.  The other thing is to try to really listen to what they're saying even if it comes out sounding like crap.  Some people lack communication skills.  Really try to focus on a solution and a common goal.  \n\nSometimes being really honest helps too.  Rather than act like you don't care what he thinks, tell him you value his opinion and you feel very demoralized when he does x and that you were wondering if your perception of the situation was a bit off.  Don't blame.  Always chalk it up to differences in how you communicate.


Rumours have it that Chelsea is in heavy talks with Ballack and Shevchenko (both playing in Germany) about the possibility of joining an already potent Chelsea team. If they were to come, this would make a prem three-peat much more likely, and a Champions League title that much closer.

Ballack Big possability.As in the contract negotations are already taking place because Ballack admitted his intrest.Andriey is a diffrent story he isn't locked up wit AC for ever ONLY if some one pays AC more than 50 mil euros (such as real madrid did with Zidane they paid 49 mil to Juve a while back )\nI think he will stay for a few more years at AC because they have Kaka,Inzaghi,Seedorf,Maldini,  DIda locked up at least for now.I know for a fact Ballack is finally leaving Buyer Munich.\nGo Chelsea! they can't be stoppedl! 2 years in a row next year with Ballack it will be a UEFA victory title too!

I'm a bit confused because tonight, Terry said now that he has won this immunity challenge, all the pressure is off, but doesn't he have to win the next immunity challenge to be part of the final three AND use the immunity idol to guarantee a seat in the final two? And is that even allowed, or can the idol only be used to get to the final three? I'm sure Jeff explained this in the first episode but I forget. \nOh, and one more thing....Can one of the others steal the idol?

I think that the immunity idol can only go to the final three. So after that he can't use it anymore. I am not sure if they can steal the idol. I think that since Terry has it, he hides it so know one will see it. Also they probably had to sign a contract with it included telling them they can't steal things like that, but I could be wrong too.


If you were going to look at a gay history website what time period(s) and what type of information would you be interested in reading about?  Are there specific historic people or events that intrest you especially?

I particularly like "Same Sex Unions in Pre Modern Europe" by John Boswell and it would be neat to see his evidence online, perhaps in timeline form.  Gay marriage is a hot topic, and those of us who do history know that this whole "marriage has always been between a man and a woman" thing is total crap.  Plenty of societies have had, allowed, and encouraged same sex marriage, like Native American societies.  I would like to see more about that online.


I am interested in toneing up and loosing weight to try for a modeling audition but I only have 2 months and starving is not an opiton so what is the quickest and safest way to shed the pounds.

well i don't know about weight, but if your talking flab i know how to get it off PDQ. you say your not grossly over weight and since your going to a modeling competion or whaterver yoiu must be in resonable shape\n\nso #1 start walking an hour in the moring and an houre at dusk (probably avoid waling when its dark)\n#2 find a good tall long hill (about 20-50yards) and run up it as best you can twice a week\n\nin 2 months you'll easilly lose flab doing that and fast and probably lose about 15 lbs since in 2 month you could potentially gain 5 pounds in water and muscle because your body has become more healthy\n\nremember there is a huge differnce between flab and muscle and just losing weight should NEVER be a goal, you have to eat healthy and drink lots of water and do the exercises i stated previously. and if you've lost all your flab and have good muscle tone but still arn't at the weight you want, sorry your not meant to weight that little\n\nps, visualize how you want yourself to look as you walk and run this will dramaticaly increase results (it helps if you build a striong desire as well for that image you make of yourself)

In International Law, sovereignty has always been a crucial factor to all states. however, with all the genocides, wars and inhumane treatments in the world, how are the superpowers supposed to just sit and watch? then again, if intervention is permitted it could lead to abuse. states will intervene for greedy self interests, and what higher power will then be able to halt them? The UN Charter is against it, but in the past (and not so distant) there have been a number of cases where intervention has occurred, and almost always the costs were extremely high: Kosovo, Rwanda, Somalia etc...

You, yourself answered your question cost.  Both in money and negative image. The US if not the 1st world will be told it is imperialism not humanitarianism that is being practiced.

What is the theme of the novel Timeline by Michael Crichton?

how come everytime you ask a guy if he has a girlfriend, they assume you like them?

Because you women want to know whether or not he is available.  If he says yes, then you women put him in your POSSIBILE category.  If he says no, then you put hime in the NO category or ask yourselves what does this other girl have to offer this guy that I don't have.  Women have low selfrespect and low self esteem in their lives, leading to asking this question.  If they had high self esteem, than these women would not ask this question because they would not care one way or the other.  Bottom line--Women are jealous of other women and usually want what the other woman wants.  Women may deny this statement, but when they sit down and think about it, this statement is totally correct.

OK well first...Yugoslavia no longer exists. ...\n\nThese are the countries that it used to comprise...\n\n Slovenia..Croatia...Bosnia..Serbia... (and now)Montenegro - only this week they have had a referendum to split from Serbia...Kosovo is still a province of Serbia..but is likely to become independent soon.. \n\n\nTo answer this you must first know a little about the history of Yugoslavia.... \n\nYugoslavia only came into existence after world war 2.\nBefore that roughly the same area was called the kingdom of the Serbs, Slovenes and Croats. This only existed after the first world war.\nBefore that Serbia and Croatia, and Bosnia etc had separate histories and cultural influences. Serbia was under the Ottoman empire whilst Croatia was under the Austro-Hungarian.\nSome people say that Yugoslavia only stayed together because of Tito's firm grip. Tito died in 1980. In the 1980's Yugoslavia economy first started showing the signs of strain that had already existed but were hidden well by Tito's position in the world, and Yugoslavia prestige of not being neither West or East.\nThis was the time when nationalist tensions first became to show (they had appeared before but were dealt with efficiently by Tito -- both Tudjman and Izabegovic 1st presidents of modern Croatia and Bosnia respectively had spent time in prison for nationalism)\nBy the times of the late 80's , Yugoslavia was ready to fall apart... \nNationalism was everywhere..\nIn Serbia started by a nationalist memorandum in 1986 by intellectuals... \nBy 1989 (a then new) Milosevic had removed autonomy from Kosovo and Vojvodina...\nThrough out Europe communism was falling, and people were wanting changes of government.\nSlovenia first wanted indepence. Partly because it was the richest province in Yugoslavia and was sick of seeing it's money spent on poorer areas. Partly because it was wanted to be more democratic and was worried by Milosevic's pro Serb, and neo communistic tendencies....\n\nSo when Slovenia declared indepence it was impossible for Croatia not to as well... Croatia had a strong natioanlist history lead by it's leader Tudjman. And wanted to regain 1000 years of Croatian history.\nIf Slovenia and Croatia were both accepted as independent by the EU , which they were..\nIt was impossble for Bosnia to stay in Yugoslavia...\n\nBUT.. \n\nThey were many Serbs who lived in all areas of the former Yugoslavia especially Croatia and Bosnia...\nThey did not want to leave Yugoslavia, and wanted to stay with Serbia...\nThey were also scared of nationalism in Croatia because during the second world many Croats were supporter of the Ustasa who were supporters of Hitler. The ustasa had massacered many Serbs in death camps such as Jasenovic.\nSome modern Croats were sympathisers with the Ustase and some of the decisions made by Tudjman gave Serbs a reason to fear living in an Independent Croatia.....\nWhilst in Bosnia alot of nationalist propganda brought to the forefront a hate of Islam, and of the Ottoman past..\n\nThis is why the civil war happened....\nOf course now relations are much better between all countries and current politicans are trying to make ammends for the past and build a future.


Major back/neck pain and vertigo.  Have seen chiropractor, naturopath.  What type of conventional doctor do I see for this?  Orthopedic?  ENT?  Thanks!

Orthopedic surgeon or "orthopod."\nI've found it to be best to use both the western and the alternative approaches for chronic muskuloskeletal pain.


When I was given adrenaline because I was possibly having a severe allergic reaction to food I collapsed about 3 minutes after the adrenaline was given. Could this have been caused by the adrenaline rush or was it due to the reaction to the food?

Adrenaline is a powerful stimulant. Nobody passes out from adrenaline, or is allergic to it, as far as I know. Passing out probably was due to anoxia (lack of oxygen) due to the constricted airways that come with a severe allergic reaction. That adrenaline saved your life.


If you know how could you explain it to me please???

No, you must use algebra to plot lines. How else would you explain the variables x and y?\n\nSlope-intercept form looks like this:\n\ny = mx+b\n\nOr, in the case of vertical lines:\n\nx = my+b\n\nWhere m is the slope and b is the x- or y- intercept, depending on which one you are using.


How does it affect you to carry and reflect upon the lost opportunity at love?

No, I don't long for her, but I sometimes think it was just a shame that it had to end. Now, I have someone I love who loves me back and I wish my ex happiness. I think it's good to move on and not dwell in the past and long for what is gone. So, I really didn't suffer a "lost opportunity at love" - I HAVE it now!


The first two terms have gone really well. Whaddya say we just get rid of elections and make him the President for Life?

He's the worst president we've ever had.


Every time I come into Yahoo chat, I always get a PM from an Indian (Dots, not feathers) saying "Hiiiiii" in my PM box and buzzing me.  \n\nWhy the hell do Indians (Dots, not feathers) do both of those things

firstly......about the 'DOTS NOT FEATHERS" bullshit...u need a spankin jerk...sho some respect...\nand the "Hiii"...is just a way of showing the other person that they are really excited about meeting them....but i cant imagine why anyone wuld b exited to meet u...a**!


If you have ever felt like no one is seeing you for who you really are, or hearing what you are really saying. Maybe the person inside of you just isn't being seen. I have been there...I want to know if anyone else has ever felt this way...

There is a great many that have always felt this way, but they think it is normal.  \n\nI learned tonight that people born blind do not see darkness ... they don't see anything at all, for their eye-balls have only ever given them as much sight as your fingers have given you sight.  The don't know what it is like to see, nor would they desire sight ... until they have grasped the concept of what is missing.\n\nThus many souls are content to sit in darkness ... and we pray that the Lord might grant them the ability to see what is authentically true ... that Jesus is the Lord.\n\nI have a suggestion ... LETS PUT THESE ANSWERS TO A VOTE!


cant we all sheare the world all togeather?

Just bought some whey protien today, and I was wondering if it helps shed the pounds, and helps tone the body?

I've found for me the protein helped me pack on the pounds but it was in muscle..I think depending on how you work out though it might help in your weight loss attempts..it will definitely help you build more muscle which should replace the fat.. which is a plus!


I have 5 years automotive experiences in China auto market and good educated.

not educated well enough. get a tutor and work on your english.


A good friend of my is a pre-operative TG female.  I knew him when he was a male.  Now he/she is living as a female.  I know she prefers being called a "she," but since I knew this person for years as a male, this is difficult, if not impossible.  "He" just slips out naturally.  Plus, he/she is still quite male looking.  Not only is using "she" seem strange, but it flies in the face of everything in our culture.  Aghh! Help!

This is normal to be experiencing this difficulty in a realtionship such as this, especially if you have known this person as male for many years. If you just met them, usually it's MUCH easier to call them by the proper pronouns- "she", "her", "hers", and so forth.\n\nMaybe some of the difficulty stems from that fear that your friend will "change" personality, also. Now, I know this is confusing, but the person you thought you knew was probably acting male using a ultra male persona- rough, butch, crude, mean, and so on. A persona is an artificial personality used to be something you're usually not. As your friend starts to find herself, she may act differently than you're used to- but now, she's being herself. Maybe if you got to know her for who she is, you will stop thinking of her as a male and more like a woman.\n\nAnd it takes practice, practice,practice- besides, it's just polite and shows respect for her.


Describe how technology has helped you learn independently.\nExplain three strategies that individuals can use to maintain their technical competence.\nWhat is your strategy for becoming a successful technical/business professional?\nWhat is the next step that you intend to take towards achieving the goal of becoming a successful technical/business professional?

3 strategies to maintain technical competence:\n1.  Read industry magazines, go to industry conferences, read the newspaper in your town that tells about startup businesses.  \n2.  Work directly with new products, get involved in beta testing.  Always use the new stuff yourself.  bE an early adopter\n3.  Scan the world for new things and ideas you don't know about then research them.  Ask people you know constantly about their experience and response to new technologies


I get the sin of B = sqrt2/2. If I am not mistaken this means that the possible angles for B are 45 degrees and 135 degrees. 135 + 60 = 195 so the only possible angle for B is 45 degrees. is this correct?

Yes.  By the law of sines, sin A/a = sin B/b, so B must be 45 degrees.  Thus C = 75 degrees, but maybe my geometry is a bit rusty.


They do the work fine and well but they are always sarcastic, grumpy and in some instances they have criticized me. I can't release them for they are hard workers.

Everybody likes to hear "nice job" once in a while.  If they are hard workers, let them know that you appreciate them.  Kind words will go a long way.  If all you ever do is point out their mistakes, well, that gets old fast.\n\nMaybe let them off early (with pay) once in a while, the day before a holiday, or just because it is a nice day.  Even half an hour makes people feel like they are getting something.\n\nTreat them the way you would like to be treated, and see what happens.


ok welll...theres this guy who i chylled with  a couple of times... who i thought was like realllllllllllllllllly hotttttt ...hes 20 and im only 16 but who cares...ive been chyllen with him and my friend... i dont thin he thinks that i like him but idk..he called me to come over to his house and a party b4 and i said no like a jerkkkkkk...now hes with the girl who has a boyfriend who she is cheating on with him...there always together now when i see him and now we dont even talk..how do i get his attention again.. i want hiiiiiiim <333333 hellp =) give me goood advicee...*\n\n\nfuck u cj FinnnE =)

if the other girl is hot then you have a competition. You have to dress really sexy front of him. For example; really tight and short shirts, deep neck which shows your cleavage, short skirts, tight skirts.... after that you have to start flirting with another guy front of him or with a guy who likes you. Maybe to touch him or even kiss another guy front of him to make him jealous... If he has feelings for you then he will get jealous and will try to talk to you...\nnemore questions email me at amirguide@yahoo.com \nI am really good at things like this. email me and let me know what is the next situation....


It has to be with Roberto Baggio, is a funny story.

He was nicknamed Pinturicchio in reference to a joke by Gianni Agnelli when he belittled the emerging Del Piero to the master Roberto Baggio in a parallel between modest painter Pinturicchio from Perugia and the great Raphael.

Edmontopn Oilers goalie Dwayne Roloson or Carolina Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward?

I asked Gary Thorne (ESPN commentator and USA Today columnist) a couple of weeks ago regarding this on a USA Today chat.  He mentions Daniel Briere but goes on to say it was way too early to determine the Conn Smythe winner.  It's probably still a little early to guess until we have the finals set this evening (or tomorrow morning).  If I had to give my answer right away, I'd go with either of the following:  Daniel Briere, Eric Staal, Cory Stillman, Cam Ward, Dwayne Rolosson or Ryan Miller.


As a neutral person please just give me your opinions.  What is the deal with the government trying a minor as an adult and sentencing them to prison or death, but if someone has sex with them they go to prison for statutory rape.  If they're old enough to be executed should they be old enough to consent to sex.  And if they're too young to have consentual sex shouldn't they be too young to be executed?  Is something wrong with justice?

From some previous answers I think some people do not know what statutory rape is.  To clairify and so you understand my answer, at least in the state I live in, (some state laws may be different) statutory rape is consentual sex but one person was over 18 and the other was under 18. \n\nI do not think anyone would agree that forcable rape where the victim did not consent should ever go unpunished.\n\nWith that in mind here is my answer:\n\n1) no one under the age of 18 when they comitted the crime can be executed. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled this cruel and usual punishment last year.\n\n2) People should be either children or adults, Not a child in one circumstance and an adult in another. Whatever age is decided is it. I agree it is a double standard. Justice system needs to decide what age is adult and if under no sex and not tried as an adult and if over that age sex is ok and not tried as adult. \n\nThis is only one of many problems with our justice system.


I am in college and deliver Chinese food.  Last night I delivered food to a house and there were probably a dozen people there.  Friends having a party I guess.  The bill was $109.  The guy who answered the door said that his girlfriend would give me a bj if I took $50 off.  This was the first time anything like this has happened to me.  I said no thanks.  Should I have accepted the offer?  Has any girl ever done this?

lol, you probably should have done it, then youd have a story to tell your friends.  i do think its funny that most guys that answered were all for it and most of the girls that answered were against it


I have 1.6 on my PC....would my cd's and steam work on a MAC.\nThe reason I ask is that I want an ibook for a laptop nextyear.

umm.. i don't think you can myfriend.  Reason #4532 why not to get a MAC! :-)


i dont know this boy on aim, he want to get to know me, should i tell him or no,hes 20 and im younger than that, and my mom said i cant have a boyfriend,so i dont know wat to do

if you are an extreme minor as in below 16 yrs old call him a pedophile and tell him to find someone else, I think of it this way kinda of my guideline to life....\n\n" life is too short to worry about the petty things in life; you live too fast, too hard and die too young."  \n\nin other words- blow this guy off, and LIVE your life.  Often do we make our decisions off of tomorrow and not today- don't live life everyday like its your last; but, make sure what you do today wont hurt you tomorrow...\n\nwithout the mistakes you will never learn to succeed in life-- but remember  YOUR MOM WAS IN YOUR SHOES ONCE AND SHE HAS KNOWLEDGE BEYOND YOU SHE IS TRYING TO SHARE...

I know they were great friends, but still. He must want to hear his own name being chanted.

I kinda feel sorry for Rey with all the Eddie chants.  No disrespect to Eddie Guerrero, we all loved him but it is not fair for the fans to keep chanting his name instead of Eddie.  The superstars live to hear the fans chanting their name. It just shows a lack of respect to Rey and everything he is doing to entertain the fans.  We should let Eddie's memory live on in our minds/hearts and let the superstars do what they do best, entertain us.


Aome people ask 'do you like my avatar'? but all I see is the red cross

That's the Internet Explorer symbol for "There should be an image here, but it isn't working."

one of my friends told me that breast feeding is not allowed in U.K and government ask people to just use bottle ? i wondered whether is it right or not ???? !!!!

LOL,  no it is a load of garbage what you have been told. Breast feeding is positively encouraged by all doctors, nurses, etc in the UK it is not and never has been forbidden.


who has the toughest drill sergeants in the US army in your opinion are they allowed to hit you guys too. in canada we don't have drill sergeants, just the NCM's teach us. they get in our face, scream at us, make us mad, but they don't hit us or say any racist comments is this true for the states too? any personal experiences?

drill sgt are not allowed to touch a trainee unless to adjust their uniform. I had my uniform adjusted quite a bit! I was choked once for telling my drill i was not afraid of him. They can yell at you all they want. but racist comments are out due to harrassment and hostile work environment crap.


I want to test creativity with this one. This question is as short as difficult so, i wanna see creative answers...

Why? Because we as humans have the need to answer all questions no matter how silly,hard,crazy,stupid,and easy they are.


the ones that will be there when you need them the most

you know, I asked myself a similar question, never been able to find a woman who was the same person when I met her as she was 6 months later, I think there are a lot of us "both men and women" want to be with someone so badly, want to fit so badly, that when it isn't a match, the partner can just see right through it, even though we may sincerely be trying.  But what you have to find, is someone who is into YOU as a person, not necessarily like EVERYTHING about you, but as you said, someone who knows without even questioning, that whatever step you take, he takes the same step right beside you.  They are out there, its just hard to find, because as a womnderful individual as you may be, that person has to be of a certain unique quality that fits you.


please help! explain why you think your theme is a theme, and possibly give examples. THANKS!

Friends will be friends until death or something like that>\n\nThis is a theme because George and Lennie are friend through everything like the problem in weed.  They stay through everything, but when Lennie kills some one (curly's wife) so George kills Lennie.  So they where friends until death (both curly's wife and Lennie's)\n\nHope this helps. :)


Well, if you want to lose it and keep it off 1 - 2 pounds per week is safe (and realistic) - It took awhile to put it on, it's going to take awhile to get it off.


It depends on what skills you've got mate! If you're a nurse, you've got good chance. You can try free assessment online. Good luck sa'yo.


there is a 6 yr old and a 4 yr old who decide today is the day to start cussing. the 6 yr old says you use "a ss" i'll say "hell".  They go down to breakfast and mom asks what they want to eat. 6 yr old says "oh hell mom i guess cheerios will be fine."  she spanks his butt all the way to his room.\nshe comes back and asks the 4 yr old what do you want for breakfast?\nhe replies "YOU CAN BET YOUR A SS I DON'T WANT CHEERIOS!"

Thats a good one!!! A cute clean joke!!!! Keep em coming!!!


dont pay it back straight away and do it over a payment plan will this mean that we will have a CCJ against our name and will it affect our credit history

My guess would be that the judgement will create the CCJ, without regard as to how quickly you pay up.  Speak to an attorney for advice specific to your case.


i know katrine was a while back but people are wondering if he cares more about money than our people? whats your opinion?

im 33 and winter makes me feel 60 sometimes lol

I am 33 as well. I have fibromyalgia and osteoporosis. I have two girls and two step girls and two babysitting kids, I also go to school full time. Sometimes, I feel great- but then other days, I feel like I am my own grandmother. Especially in the mornings. My husband is already making plans for when we retire- we will be snowbirds- in FL in the winter, and MI in the summer. I am always cold, even in the springtime. I wear sweatshirts all year long. It is part of having fibromyalgia.


How can I get better on my serves. My balls go over the net sometimes. How can I make them go over everytime.

well if you serve underhand, you should try curls. for an overhand or power serve you just have to do it alot. that will help you build the strength. to keep the ball out of the net try hitting the ball sooner. when its higher (for over hand) same for underhand too. its really depends on your release point. and if you serve with a closed fist make sure you make a totally flat contact with the ball. if you dont and you hit it with the side of edge of your fist it will go out of bounds. Good Luck!! keep practicing! :)


theres this chic i like We've got a great connection, flirting and all that, and today someone asked how long we had known each other (cos he thought it must have been for a long time, cos of how close we seemed). only known her little while, like 2 months\n\nHer reply was HE'S 23, im only 18 (which she burst out kinda)\n\nI kinda took it hard, but wasnt sure if she was joking.\n\nwould a 18 yr old think 23 was really old? or was she just maucking around

Hello. Don't take this matter too hard as she might have said it out of admiration or a joke, etc.\n\nI am 22 years old now and I still do make jokes about guys 2, 3 or 4 years younger than me who has a crush in me. At least you're no less adolescent than her. If she does this to you and it hurts, try confiding in her. She mightn't know that what she's saying is putting a little pressure on you.\n\nTake it easy, alright? She's just being naughty. It isn't evil nor is it appalling :)


How do get good grades in high school?\nWhat are some secrets to getting thru high school?

By being interested in bettering yourself, you've taken the first step. Good for you - you should feel good about yourself.\n\nBeing better takes many small incrimental steps. As long as you continue to work a little harder than the rest you'll be way ahead of them in the long run.\n\nAs you go through school, always be yourself. Don't get caught up in doing what your peers tell you to do. Many of them will want you to do the things they want to do in order to feel better about themselves. Remember that your future is your responsibility and your highest priority. What you do today could have a huge effect on your future, so you want to choose wisely.\n\nOne specific resourse I recommend is a book, "7 habits of highly effective people".


The school is really competitive and I desire to go there instead of some other university.

U of I is really good.\n\nlots of things can help...grades, references, test scores.\nDo you have any clinical or research experience? That would probably be one of the biggest contributions.\n\nGood luck


when i was picking what answer was best for my last question asked.  i hit the pick button thinking it was the view answer button and it picked that person.  I tried to change it but the computer would not let me.  I got a message telling me to pick only one answer.  I just want to make sure that the right person gets the points for answering.

It's too late then.  Once you pick, you can't change your mind.


I'm only 15 years old but I feel like im in my early 20s. I'm really intellectual and like to have deep, thoughtful conversations with people. I love being a teen and having fun as one but I can never truly act as one, all bubbly or whatever. I see high school boys as extremely immature and desperate for relationships and high school girls as naive. I am constantly analyzing myself and others, why we behave that way or look that way. And I even tend to be attracted to twenty something year olds. Sometimes I even catch myself thinking about professions, my future kids, incomes, my parents' retirement. Whats wrong with me? Why am I so different?

There is nothing wrong with you...people mature at different ages.  Most high school boys ARE immature.  Most high school girls are naive.  You just need to find some people at school that are more on your level - they are out there.  Try to stay away from dating guys in their 20s though...at 15, regardless of your maturity, it's bad news.  Maybe look for guys around your age who are more mature, or maybe someone just a couple years older who are also mature for their age.  Don't worry though...people will catch up to you and you wont feel so out of place :)

I have always found night shifts better, because I can still get things done around town before I go to work in the afternoon/evening.  When you work days, everything is closed when you are at home.  Also, when you work days you have to get up at the alarm regardless of how tired you are.  When I work nights, I get up when I have had enough sleep.  I don't try to adjust my body to the clock, I work the clock to me when I am on nights.


She is the really mean and calculated women and I am more on the straight and simple side. But I want to make a good impression on her because she provides the performance review . What should I do ?

First, what does this have to do with your genetic heritage?\n\nSecond, just do your job above and beyond what is required and you will become indispensible.


I have a friend who is need of prayers right now. Her husband took her off of any of his money accounts. She does not have a job because she has bad health. She is not going to die right away just bad health. Because he has taken her off all his accounts she does not have toilet paper in her home or soap for clothes and food is running scarce. He goes and buys his lunch and dinners and breakfasts and says too bad for her. She has no one to turn to. He makes too much for her for welfare. She needs his health Insurance. She has no family to turn to. I cannot help her. So I was hoping that if people would prayer for her to have good health so she could go and find a job that God would help her. She has prayed herself. I thought more people praying God would know she really needs help. She makes things and tries to sell them and not doing to great. Her hubby made it so she can't do Ebay. She is trying her hardest.  Thank you!

I know what your Friend is going thru. Prayer is the only thing that can help her. I was surprised more people did not answer this. Maybe they did and maybe they did pray for her. Either way please keep me updated if at all possible. I am interested to know the outcome. I will pray for her!


I just think it is a word invented without a real content.  There is no freedom.

Freedom is the only value I have, understand and will protect at any cost. I feel u share similar points of view to a life.\nThere is a freedom! Even a prisoner has got one if he wants to, your mind is free and one can stop u thinking until u're dead.

do you where pants and a shirt and a cap and the other stuff or is it shirt and shorts, i want to know the uniform for A.P.Gianninni Middle School in San Francisco, Oretega street

A typical softball uniform consists of a short-sleeved or sleeveless jersey supplied by the organization, shorts or sliding pants, and stirrup or other high socks.  Anything goes, really; jerseys vary from cotton tees to polyester baseball-styled ones.  Pants can be full-length or cropped below the knee to show your socks.  Shorts come in a huge variety of fabrics, but polyester, mesh, or nylon are the most common.  In colder climates, long-sleeved shirts are often worn under jerseys.  Most teams wear visors as well.  In addition to the uniform, many girls wear sliding shorts to prevent abrasion to the hip and a slider to keep your legs from being cut.  Cleats are worn by most players.  If you want to learn more, you can try looking at products on www.softball.com- they have equipment and clothing.


A hurricane might hit New York and Even hit South Ontario...*gulp*that's where I live! What should I do?

The ocean water is too cold near NY to produce a powerful enough hurricane.  Most hurricanes form between 5 and 20 degrees latitude above or below the equater.  This is where the waters are warm and there are fast upper-altitude winds--favorable hurricane conditions.  If a hurricane was formed, say, in the Carribean and moved north towards NY, by the time it reached NY the colder waters would imensly weaken the hurricane.  Hurricanes need warm waters (80* F) to remain powerful enough to be of concern.  I wouldn't be too worried about a hurricane reaching NYC.


I am making a PowerPoint presentation on a math topic and I wonder, whould I have something light and easygoing playing in the background? If so, what do you suggest?\n\nAlso, do you have some examples on how slopes are used in real life?

Bach is good in any situation - the double-violin concerto springs to mind.\nSlopes , or gradients , show the relationship between one variable and another.For example , the allowance someone gets per week , and the amount of chocolatte that they buy ; or , the number of hours that someone plays an adventure game per week , and the level they have got to.

My mom has a small case of it right now.. but, I think there are herbs out there for all problems of the body.. does anyone have any suggestions?\nAlso my daughters horse has it but, he's had it a long time.

All of the herbs that have been covered in bronchitis (above) are also applicable with emphysema. Particular remedies such as elcampane and comfrey root that help to clear sputum should be considered. Also the herbs recommended for asthma (above) are also recommended to tone the lungs.\n\nThe following herbal mixture would be worth trying especially if there is a persistent cough.\n\n2 parts mouse ear \n1 part sundew \n1 part coltsfoot \n1 part thyme \n1 part white horehound \nCombine the herbs and using 2 teaspoons of the herb mix place into a cup and pour on boiling water. Allow this to stand for 10-15 minutes. When the tea has cooled strain it and drink it.


Are they (NHL Authentics and Replicas) machine washable?\nOr do I have to have them dry cleaned?

Real hockey jerseys are machine washable (thank God).  All practice jerseys, any of your game worn jerseys, all totally fine for washer and dryer (if you're super finicky you could pull them out early and hang them to dry the rest of the way just to save wear and tear but... dude.  It's a *hockey* jersey.  Washing is probably the *least* of what's going to happen to it).\n\nIf it's a Gretzky jersey, keep it under glass and don't wash nothin'.\n\nAs far as cheap replica jerseys go, like you get on Ebay or whatever?  Those can get really messed up by machine washing, mostly because the appliques are glued on and the glue gets goofed up with the moisture and heat.  You could try handwashing.  I'd stick to cold water.\n\n I'm still not sure I'd dry clean them, though.  I mean, seriously.  Don't let a hockey player see you taking a jersey to a dry cleaner.  Make someone else do it.  Serious.  You'd never live it down.\n\n:p


taken a philosophy course? How did you find it?\n\nAlso, have you ever taken a psychology course? How did you find that?

Actually, I found it boring.  I like reading philosophy  and find the ancient ideas inspiring, but only on my own terms.  I'd rather just read what Sophocles had to say rather than compare and contrast him  with Herodotus, etc..\n\nAs for psychology - loved it!  I really enjoyed the abnormal psych stuff.


I hear about it all the time that girls meet guys on myspace and get kidnapped or molested.

It's a haven because parents don't pay enough attention to what their kids are doing.  Myspace is a haven for all types of criminals looking for cohorts.  I searched through the pages of several people from my step-son's high school after I found him chatting with a guy who was trying to build a bomb.  Some of the girls (ages 14-16) had pictures of themselves posted that were anything but appropriate and they all claimed to be adults.  The dialogs being carried on contained sexual content, drug references, planned assaults on other students, planned explosive "demonstrations", and other inappropriate references.  \n\nMyspace.com requires all its members to be at least 16 but it doesn't check anybody.  I had to remove my step-son twice and it took two weeks each time.  I practically had to get a signed statement from him in order to have him removed but he had unrestrained access to the site simply by signing up online.  They clearly have failed to live up to their responsibility to monitor their own product.\n\nNone of this is intended to diminish the culpability of offenders that use myspace to look for victims.  They are fully responsible for their own actions.  The only upside of myspace is that it also provides law enforcement officers with a place to look for preditors, the downside still outweighs that singular benefit though.


my friend and her bf have bin goin out 4 about 5 months then they broke up. she cried and he gave her a 2nd chance. and he broke up w/ her again and sed he just felt bad 4 her. she askes me advice on it, and i give it to her and she calls me stupid. what do i tell her or do know/

A lot of people in this situation (just broken up with boyfriend/girlfriend), don't want to hear what they know they should do.  They want to hear go back to him, tell him you love him, he will come back to you, just wait for him, etc.  \n\nBe there for your friend, and if she continues to call you stupid, then tell her that not only has she lost her boyfriend, but she will be losing a good friend if she continues calling you stupid for your advice.


One time on a camping trip I was walking back from the bathrooms at that moment right between day and night and I saw someone walk across the front of the site and stop behind a tree. So I figure one of the people is going to jump out and try to surprise me, so I pull out my flashlight, walk up to the tree, turn on the light, and there's no one there.\n\nAs a child the chandelier used to swing from side to side, and the radio would turn on by itself in the middle of the night.\n\nOne time I was alone in a house, and I felt a presence. I looked a mobile hanging motionless, and said, "If there is anyone else here, make the mobile spin." The next moment, the mobile began to spin.\n\nOne time I was driving into Ponca State Park to set up a large camping gathering, and the sides of the road were lined with spirits. All standing there, clearly visible to everyone, calmly welcoming us back.\n\nOn another camping trip, we felt a spirit near the bon-fire. We had a ring of 40 tiki-torches around the bonfire. It was a still and windless night, but all the tiki flames near the spirit bent in. One of the people in the circle had a fancy camera. After the campout she went to get the film developed, and all the photos from before the visitor turned out, but after that all the film was blank. She took the camera in to be repaired. The repairman asked if she'd been in a nuclear power plant. All the innards were fried from electromagnetism\n\nMy grandmother died while my niece was in utero. After my niece was born, she would look up at areas where no one was standing, and laugh and giggle. We all knew that she was looking at gramma, so we never showed her any pictures. Finally, at about a year old, she could speak, and my sister showed her the family photo album. My niece picked out her photo and said, "That's Old Gramma."

Me and my boyfriend has been together for 11 months in fact week after next will make a year, but we are having some major problems. I'm starting to feel like he really don't care anymore. This really do hurt me, meaning this is the first person I have ever fell in love with. He have messed up in the past, but we worked through that and I gave him another chance. Do you think I'm just stupid to continue to go with him? People tell me to follow my heart, but my following my heart is what got me in this situation. Please give me some advice.

sometimes guys just like that! dont worry.. it will be better eventually!


It used to scare the crap out of me when I was a kid.  It's all a little foggy, bear with me. \n\nThere was a group of schoolkids and they were taken hostage by people wearing masks.  I remember one guy had a duck mask on.  I think they escaped and they were in a cave or something... I think they had to swim underwater to get away.  I'm pretty sure they all had british accents.\n\nI know it's not much to go on but it's been driving me crazy for years.

I loved that movie.\n\nIt was called Fortress (1985).\n\nThe teacher was played by Rachel Ward. It's an Australian movie.

I have a difficult boss to deal with @ work. I just completed weekly treatments which lasted 6 weeks.  I told her I was going to the library to look up journal articles & make copies of them.  I looked up the articles on my own time & placed them in my car, after I finished with my dr's appointment I came into the office with the articles.  I know lying is wrong but I was afraid she would turn me down if I asked her for time off.  Like I said she is very difficult to deal & I didn't want to tangle with her.  Is lying so bad when you need medical treatment?  It's not like I'm trying to avoid work to party or smoke pot.

With the release of the latest audio file in an As-Sahab website and its immediate press coverage, I’ve been wondering as to weather we’ll be responding to these messages for the next few decades like kids to stories of monsters in the closet. I know that we have to take these treats seriously but I often wonder as to weather we should be responding the way we do. I mean we haven’t seen any actual film footage of bin Laden since before the end of the Afghan invasion. Furthermore, can you honestly say that someone couldn’t plant a message in an As-Sahab website, or do you think their website security is so sophisticated as to be impervious to such things? I’m not trying to stir up the ‘conspiracy’ fringe, but I do wonder as to weather we are going to be the constant victims of (and slaves to) our fears in this matter. I mean (and I really hate to say it but) how do we not know as to weather the press might be planting these stories to drum up flagging readership numbers?

Its the American way. We need someone to blame for everything. Its easier to point the blame at one person rather than find fault with the structure of society or anything that can't exactly be punished. Is this fair or right? No. Will it continue? I'm afraid so...

Epitaph for a young girl, written by her poet father

That is very sweet. I am sorry about your daughter. God bless you.


if u use it wat were ur results, do u have ne tips, also wat about wei wu wei


they were at a disadvantage goin into enemy teritory, they shot only 37 % from the field ( a far cry from their usual 50-60%), at one time they missed 10 straight 3's, and didnt score 100+ points (wherein they are 0-7 i think)\n\nso how do they do it??\n\nare the suns ACTUALLY relying on their defense now?\n\n(they limited the clips to just 15 points in the 3rd, which is something you would expect maybe from the spurs or the pistons)

Hey, a win is a win. GO SUNS!\n\nAs a matter of fact, they actually missed 15 straight threes which is completely unheard of for this suns team. And hey, this is the suns FIRST win when the margin of victory is three points or less. Couldnt come at a better time.\n\nThe Suns won because there wasnt a huge rebound gap like there usually is. They got outrebounded by like 1 rebound i think. That is why other teams score on them, as they grab so many more rebounds than the suns do. If the Suns keep it close, they can always win. Also, they also hit 9 more free throws than the Clips which helps bridge the gap in FG%.\n\nNo such thing as enemy territory when it comes to the Clips. After all, they play in the Staples Centre which is where the Lakers play, so the Suns already have played their. Only difference is the colours.


If one were going to do this type of work from a home based perspective.

The cheapest route would probably to get a Mac computer and use iMovie a program that comes with all Macs).  Also for Macs is editing software called "Final Cut Pro."  It's very expensive ($1200) but it's what the pros use.


All of the pictures that i look at on the internet...are fuzzy i cant see them good. Is there anything i can download to make them look better for free?

Some of your pictures on your computer can be fuzzy because your graphics card is bad old or small,  it also can be because your screen is bad.


Is it even real? they punish eachother bad!

If you mean competing in reality shows for a prize, then ABSOLUETLY NOT! Looking at recent sites and ratings, shows like SURVIVOR, The Amazing Race, and American Idol have dominated. This shows that catfighting draws people in. I love SURVIVOR, because it is a good show and you even forget the money and you just want someone to win. Go to www.tv.com and click reality, plenty of people do not want these shows to be banned.


I mean come on ,talk to a person before   you judge them! A stupid ? is going to get a stupid answer! Tell me I'm wrong! But on the other hand the way I was brought  up- Any ? deserves an answer!! Stupid or intelligent! A ? is a ? someone needs an answer, or they would noot have asked! Wrong, ignorance is 1 thing I can't stand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the day we are old enough to recognize patterns is the day we begin to be prejudice.  Through no fault of our own we consciously and unconsciously keep track of what to expect next based on our previous experiences...\n\nYou can't blame a person for being exposed to an environment or patterns that would cause them to be prejudice.  You can only hope to set an example strong enough to help sway their prejudice into enlightenment.\n\nPrejudice is natural, and happens 1000's of times per day.   The only time that the "Thought Police" have a problem with it, is when the prejudice hurts someones feelings... Thats when they throw up words like "ignorant" or "racist".\n\n- but thats just a way of trying to control you, instead of enlighten you.  The only true ignorance is to ignore your own instinct, logic, and experiences because someone else tells you to.

I REALLY DON'T THINK GOD CAME TO ANYBODY AND SAID "HEY!THIS IS YOUR LAND SO TAKE IT AWAY" THAT JUST STUPID. I'M AN AMERICAN TOO AND I ENJOY HAVEING THE MEXICAN PEOPLE HERE BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFERENT THEN ME AND I CAN LEARN AND BECOME A BETTER AND STRONG PERSON BECAUSE I'M ABLE TO OPEN UP TO A WHOLE DIFFERENT CULTURE. JUST BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE DOESN'T HAVE A OPEN MIND AND LEAD A BOREING LIFE DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE REST OF US WANT THE SAME THING. BY THE WAY MY HUSBAND IS MEXICAN AND I'M VERY PROUD OF HIM , HE WORKS 60 TO 65 HOURS EVERY DAY AND NEVER COMPLAINS.I USED TO BE MARRIED TO AN AMERICAN FOR 6 YEARS AND HE NEVER WORKED SO I HAD TO RAISE MY KIDS ON WELFARE BUT NOW I DON'T HAVE NO WELFARE THANKS TO A REAL MAN THAT EVERYBODY HATES JUST BECAUSE OF HIS RACE.I HAVE RIGHTS AND FREEDOM THE SAME AS ANY OTHER AMERICAN AND I CHOOSE TO BE APART OF THE MEXICAN LIFE STYLE BECAUSE THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT THEN YOU OR ME,(THEY ARE HUMANBEINGS WITH FEELINGS,LOVE,CARE AND CONCERNS).

They don't realize that they talk about God and always say "God Bless America" and think they have the right to criticize. They are no one to judge, only God can judge. They are ignorant, God forgive me but they are. They need to realize that just like they are judging they will be judged, but not by other human beings but by God.\n\nand to imstillsandy...there is many people out there judging us by our color and race. I went to the store the other day and was denied service because of my skin. So you don't talk before you don't know. They are getting sued because I am too an American. The only thing is that my ancestors are Mexican, but that does not give people the right to try to put us down.

I have Mitro Valve Prolapse and after the stress test the doctor said my heart beat is normal.\n\nSo can I pursue and continue to study to become a pilot?\n\nIf not having MVP will cause any problem?

There is nothing to worry about this. Everything will be fine; and this is a common disease among the people. There are two types in this MVP.\n\nHowever just leave it out; contact ICAO for information on this regarding the civil aviation and check with your company.\n\nHowever MVP means you cannot be a Combat Pilot


I`ve been divorced for 6 months and don`t feel I´ve moved on at all. There`s been some complications - my ex was considering to come back to me but then decided against it - and that didn`t help. Now I`ve decided to see him and talk to him only in connection with our kids (12 and 18). But my heart is still broken and although I`m angry with him I`m also longing for him. I don´t feel like dating or anything, I just want to feel a little better. In your experience, is it better to fill your days with activities ot to use the time for some soulsearching and quiet contemplation?

I think it is difficult for you to let go because you have children from the relationship and land up meeting him. Assuming you want to move forward, do minimize your contact with him else it is difficult to let go of him. To answer your question, I believe you need both - soul searching and activities.\n\nWhen you close a relationship, we tend to think of the "could haves" "would haves" and "what if". If you are doing that, please stop yourself. To really move forward, you have to shutdown the past, and have to tell yourself "Life goes on" and believe in it and think forward. \n\nSoul searching is very important becoz it will help you identify what you are and what you need from your partner. It might even help you reason out why the previous relationship ended and help you come to terms with it. This knowledge about yourself will also give you peace of mind, mental strength and confidence in yourself to move forward.\n\nActivities are very important too in order to live your day to day life and put the past behind. Doing activities you like to do will help you relax and make you happy. It will also help you connect with people who like to do the same activities you like. Thus it will help build network of friends and possibly help you find the right person in your life.\n\nSo, soul searching is required to understand what you are and what you need from this point on. Activities are important to have fun and enjoy the present.\n\nAdditionally I would say: 1) Workout more often becoz it helps reduce stress and makes you feel positive. 2) Stay around people and friends that have positive energy/attitude - it will really help feel positive. 3) Yoga and Meditation really help a lot too.


I'm buying an item from France that is equivalent to about $1000 USD.  Do I get the VAT refunded when I leave to return to the US? If so, how do I go about getting the refund?  Also, from France I'm going to Italy, so I'm coming back to the US from Italy...do I request the refund when I leave France, or when I leave Italy, even though I bought the item in France?

Get it when you leave France.  Most airports have a place to make a claim for it, do it when leaving the country.


how do you feel about your man kssing and licking your @nus during foreplay? And does it bother you if you know it is a little 'funky' down there and yet he ravages it even more enthusiastically...

Is every single person on here a christian or what? Every post i read everyone always says "im a christian". Ugh this is pathetic. I can't believe theres so many people who are so stupid to believe this garbage.

I am a practicing Pagan.  \n\nThere is nothing wrong with Christians, I have some great friends that are wonderful Christians.  Everyone has the right to worship as they see fit, it is called free will, and one of our rights as Americans.  \n\nJust remember that what you put out you get back, so if you feel that Christians are stupid to believe in their theologies, then you will only get back in your life people that believe you are stupid for believing what you do.


"Holy and reverend is his name" (Psa. 111:9)\nthis is the only use of reverend in the Bible it refers to God's name, and that man dare not wear that name. Such an explanation is a display of ignorance. Reverence is honor or respect felt or shown; reverend is an adjective meaning worthy of reverence. Is no person worthy of honor or respect? If not, we are to be pitied.\n\nTo be consistent in argument, we would have to say that it would be sinful to refer to a person as being holy also which we are called upon to be.\n\nThe term is misused generally, for it is not meant as a title. Correctly used, it should be The Reverend Mr. John Jones, or some other such use as an adjective. There is no reason why reverend cannot be used in this manner that is, if Mr. Jones is worthy of honor and respect.\n\nIn our properly founded aversion to the title of reverend, we have called our preacher Brother John Jones. Even though brother indicates equality, it is us

Although I wonder if any of them refuse to call a judge "Your Honor" if they ever appear in court!\n\nI have no problem with a member of the clergy being called reverend in any sense of the word as long as they are not trying to infer that they are God.  And I find it highly unlikely that anyone would REALLY make the mistake of thinking that using "reverend" somehow meant that.\n\nFor centuries people have referred to God using adjectives to that were also used to refer to people of respect in their society.  It was simply understood that, when referencing God in that way, it was because He was the ultimate perfection of that term, but it did not preclude them from using the same word to describe honored people who exemplified the same attributes to a lesser degree.  \n\nMy personal opinion is that our society as a whole is losing respect for one of the highest callings a human can have -- devoting one's life to the service of God and others, and, consequently, they do not like to see a title of respect attached to it.  Unfortunately, that means that they will bash the name, position, and people until that respect is regained.\n\nGod Bless Reverend!

hi. i have this friend, and she just stopped eating. she says she's not hungry and that she isnt doing it to lose weight, but either way she's not eating. what do i do? she lost 6 pounds in 2 days!! please help me!!

One of my friends used to be anorexic. She went to the doctor one day for headaches and come to find out, she had a brain tumor because of it. If you are still in school, go to the guidance counselor or talk to her parents. Definitely not healthy.


The most ridiculous concept ever perpetrated by Homo Sapiens is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of the Universes, wants the sacharrine adoration of his creations, that he can be persuaded by their prayers, and becomes petulant if he does not receive this flattery. Yet this ridiculous notion, without one real shred of evidence to bolster it, has gone on to found one of the oldest, largest and least productive industries in history.

ha ha i knew this would happen \n\nonce people gave up on evolution and had to accept that there is a Creator and Designer that they would start another endless argument
