My co-worker has done that.....\nShe is also a nut, that does not get along with others and is very mean spirited....\nis this cause for terminiation?

It's definitely in VERY poor taste.  She obviously doesn't have a lot of office etiquette in her social arsenal.\n\nThe link below has a lot of various definitions of what sexual harassment is...\n\nfor you, it might be good to get your office's manual to find out what your company considers sexual harassment.  In some cases, just having sexually explicit or suggestive items on display (such as the lingerie) is enough to be grounds for some sort of action.\n\nGood luck.


I mean, who are the meanest, ugliest, most hostile so-called fans in any NHL arena?\n\nFor my money it is the philadelphia flyers "fans" by far. They are the vilest, most repugnant excuses for human beings I have ever encountered in my life. They literally cheer when an opposing player is injured and then jeer when said player is helped off the ice. This actually occurred just last night against my Buffalo Sabres. When J.P. Dumont was viciously speared by the dirtiest player in the league, denis gauthier, the subhuman philly fans cheered loudly, even as Dumont writhed in pain (gauthier deliberately stabbed him in the abdomen, exactly where J.P. had surgery only a couple of months ago). In ANY other NHL venue, the fans would applaud respectfully when a player was helped to his skates and ushered off the ice. Not so with these scum. They booed loudly as Dumont was carefully assisted to the dressing room. I despise philadelphia and their loathsome "fans." Who do you consider the worst?


I am looking for the lawful explaination of what a jurisdiction transfer is, but in simplier form. Perferably a transfer from the state of Indiana to the state of North Carolina. Also what does the transfer consist of if it is possible. Thank you for your help!

You don't get transfered from one state prison to another unless they happen to need overflow and send you out of state.  What you're probably thinking of involves "states" in the sense of nations. (Remember each US state is truly a sovergin nation that has ceded some power to the federal government)  There's a treaty that allows prisoner to be returned to their country of citizenship to serve out the remainder of their sentence.  ie You're in jail in Mexico but are a US citizen.  Under the treaty you could possibly apply to be transfered to a US federal prison to serve out the remainder of your jail in your home country.


I turned my daughter's clock forward today. She was not impressed with me when she eventually realised that she had got up at 5am instead of 6 to go to work. Ha.\n\nAlso have a look at the response OneRunningMan gave to The Kimster  on the same subject.


Do you think they will keep the jobs here or move them where they can get cheap labor?

They will get loopholes for guest workers or get visas to have the people tehre, they cannot not have those workers!


does anyone live on Oahu? Everyone says it's crazy expensive, but isn't that all relative? There are lots of jobs there right? What's so expensive? How bad is the rent?

It is crazy expensive, and no, it's not all relative. They pay approx the same wages as everyone else, but property is really expensive because there's only a very limited amount of it AND groceries/gas is super super expensive because EVERYTHING has to be shipped in and it's no short hop to Hawaii! And a lot of jobs have to do with the tourist season.


im 14 and realy want to lern bass but dont realy have the money to buy one

Hi, \nTry calling B&C Musin Studio in Pittston.  Phone 570-654-4420.  I don't know about prices for any of what you want, but they offer instruments and lessons.  Maybe if you call you can get started by getting some information, and maybe an idea of how to get started with your dream!  Good luck.


they are both very different.. i have got previous responses such as becoming a biomedical engineer, but i dont want that... they dont have the pay i want, doctors and good achitects do... um.. any sudgestions??? um.. i want to do both is it possible.. if so, how? if not, why?

It's probably easier to become a doctor, so start with med school. Then AFTER you have your doctor's degree, then go back to architect school via night classes while practicing medicine to pay the bills. Then when you have both accredations, you can choose which one to practice full time, or for the rest of your life.


Unlike Christmas and Hannukah, Passover and Easter ARE actually related. Jesus had entered into Jerusalem for the Passover celebration so he could show how the mindless servitude to tradition without understanding was actually separating people from God, plus he needed a very public event so his death would be well-known, because the resurrection was so important as a sign of God's love for mankind, no matter what their religion.


my ex and i want to get back together but i am still deciding if i want to or not. one of the reasons i broke up with him is cause he told one of my friends "baby got back, and baby got rack." i was so pissed. but when he isn't around her he really devots himself to me. i don't want him to flirt with my friends if we go back out again? should i talk to him about it or just not go out with him?

no... if someone isnt as interested as you as they are in your friends and they are retarded enough to show it\n\nthats two good reasons why you probably wouldnt be happy in the long run\n\nWith that i leave the real choice up to u


have acid reflux and always stopped up, seems like if we could get it all moving things would improve, read that there was some experimental stuff but wondering if anybody knew anything specific

It's not what you take, it is what you don't take. Stick to drinking water.  Avoid salt, sugar, caffeine. Eat raw veggies.


no medicine to make penis growing make thick and large. penis grow big big if exercising more. make exercising more to make growing big and strong. eating more egg.


All the embryoys are healthy then how do you decidewhom to selcetively reduce

Remember also that each embryo was given an eternal soul at the moment of conception, this is a verly weighty matter to have to decide. It may be the safest to let nature takes its course


ok you guys is it wrong for me to love a big woman i mean i live all the way in texas and she does to but whne we go out people look at me like im weird for going out with her. I love her she is so awsome in bed. She isnt that great lookin but looks dont matter to me just heart.

It's wrong for people to stare... how rude!\n\nYou go right on ahead and love that big girl!\n\n(Texas does have a bit of a weight problem but I have a big problem with people who don't accept others)


I'm actually founding a start-up ad agency for a small market.  We will purchase media, write copy, produce slicks for print media, and I will outshop video prod.  As for jingles, I will have producers who can compose music from scratch, but would like to have access to a library of pre-composed music as well.  Any help?


Here's what happens: I go onto the internet, and there are like streaming videos of windows media player. Well, I see the box and at the status bar it says 'Ready'. Well, when I try to click the play button, nothing happens! Like the video won't play. Does anyone know how to fix this or knows a site that will teach me how to fix this? Thanks!

search the net for the last codecs. if that doesnt work you probally have a bad link


i can never seem to find decent country or city maps online. is there one good resource for good maps?

The online library at the University of Texas has a good collection.\n\nhttp://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/index.html


i like this lad who is my friend as well. should i tell him i like him? how do i know whether he will like me back and if he doesn't it will be really awkard cos i see him everyday. We get on really well and my friend thinks that he likes me more than just a friend, he dosent drink so he dosent have dutch courage like the rest of us and Im too shy to make a move myself. but my friend who also one of his best friends told me that he knows i like him but he hasn't done anything about it. does this mean he doesnt like me. However I only ever saw him out once with the lads and I was with SOMEONE ELSE, I think I made a mistake cause my friend told me he kept staring at me the whole night.

Keen as you both may be I think you are both nervous about putting yourself out there... it is scary to say how you feel with no guarantee about how the other feels, and he may be feeling the same.\n\nI would say try not to rush it... try to find things that you can do together as friends... things that include groups of others... then a few others... then a couple of others.\n\nYou dont have to tell someone that you like them... they say actions speak louder than words!\nSo smile at him a lot, send him a cute card when you get a chance, buy him a small easter egg, if he likes a particular group then look up info about them online and learn a bit about them so you can share his enthusiasm...\nit is the little things that make the biggest impact.\n\nOnce both of you are comfortable together... and you are both fairly confident of each others feelings towards each other, nature will probably take over.\n\nGood luck!


from other movies about corrupt government and opression? \nWhy is this movie IMPORTANT to our society?\nWhat is it trying to say?

I see it's the story of everything\nAll people have hope and see corruption but they do nothing\nThe ones who do something are the real leaders who have nothing to lose and they look forward to their revenge\nVendetta gave the example and the hope for the people. They loved him and they won't allow him to die in vain. \nThey chose his side and took the risk because they knew that whatever the risk they take it's nothing compared to vendetta's risk. Notice that most people who faught and took decisions are the ones without families (V and Evey and Her Uncle)\nThey have no fear, and if they have they laugh at it.\n\nEveryone knows what's wrong. they just need a leader they can trust.


I'm with my gf for almost 8 months, we dont see each other very often though coze she lives far away, anyway the thing is she's really bossy, she has a strong character and she's really inteligent. due to that she has totally dominated out relationship, she even tries to push me around from time to time, i didnt ever have problems like that with gfs and i dont know what to do.i love her and i dont want to dump her but im pretty fed up with this situation. i cant just talk to her and say" i wanna be the boss now" so can anyone help me bbe the MAN in this rellationship?

You're right, you shouldn't be the boss and neither should she.  But a man should be the leader as long as he is respectful and mature about his intentions...by leader, I don't mean ruler.   A woman looks down on a man for being the weaker one and will not respect that, but on the other hand, admires a strong man who knows exactly what he wants and how to get it.  At the same time, being strong includes knowing when to be romantic and sensitive, and truly interested in her as a person.  You want to turn the tables in one fell swoop, so the next time a situation occurs where she is being bossy, put your foot down hard and show her a side of you she hasn't seen before.  From then on out, it won't be necessary to put your foot down so hard because she'll understand your boundaries. Good Luck!


If my child had a diaper rash and went for a supervised visitation with the father...can the father take the child to the emergency room with out my permission? And how would DHR get involved?

If the visit was supervised, With who? Perhaps a Court appointed. Then that person would also see the rash. He does have the right and should take the child to the doctors. He doesn't need your permission he is the child's father. And it is very likely the hospital reported to DHR. Some states it is mandatory. I don't know how extreme the rash was but if all is well you should have nothing to fear. And be happy he cared enough to have it checked. There may have been no malice just concern on his part.

I seriously know nothing, I've never set up a website before so don't know where to start.  Any hints/tips/starting points would be greatfully appreciated!

If you are a true novice and don't want to spend much time learning how to make a site, I would suggest the current super-popular MySpace. You can quickly get your information up for all your friends to see.\n\nIf you are interested in something more, but still fairly simple try GeoCities or Yahoo.\n\nIf you are willing to learn HTML I would suggest ATSPACE.COM. You can create a website for FREE up to 50MBs in size. I have two websites through them and the uptime is great. You'll need an ftp program to upload your stuff. There's a good free one for personal use called "FTP Explorer". Of course you'll either need to learn HTML or use one of the WYSIWYG programs like FrontPage or DreamWeaver to actually design your site. e-mail me if you need some help...\n\nIf you want your own domain and have it hosted, I suggest ReadyHosting. You get 1GB of space unlimted e-mail accounts, FTP access and domain name registration all for $99 a year.\n\nWeb hosting site (FREE):\nhttp://www.atspace.com\nWeb hosting site (COST):\nhttp://www.readyhosting.com\nFTP Explorer site:\nhttp://www.ftpx.com\n\nA couple of my websites:\nPioneer Baseball Website (ReadyHosting - Cost)\nhttp://www.pioneerbaseball.org\nMy Son's Travel Team's Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tricountytitans.atspace\nFamily Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tim8w.atspace.com


OK every morn at work I like to read jokes! Just To brighten my day. Who ever can make me laugh the most get 10pts.

ok umm... dang i forget... wait guess what? aww forget it!!!!\n\nNow I know its a yo mamma joke\n\nYo mamma is so stupid, when I said penny for yo thoughts\nshe wrote on some paper, shot her brains out, and I looked at the paper and it said, one mind for you, one penny for me =)


I've been told that I am too honest, so honest that I tend to hurt people at times.


i got a 20 m cable and i am sure that it works.also i have put the ip's correcty >n:b: the first pc gives the signal a net cable is plugged,unplugged,plugged......the other one it semm like not connected with a red x on the network connection

your question leaves too much to the imagination but one of the first things you need to know about is a crossover cable. This type of cable is required to connect a system to another system. Certain wires in this cable are paired with others in order to make them work correctly. You're most likely using a straight through cable.


Ohhh,,My god some one in my school brought a "Stink blaster" The named of the guy is Sebastien (this happend yesterday) He said it smelled like roses so I said,,,OHH!!!ROSES!!!I smelled it almost everyone got sick!All the girls except Melanie...Then finnally (Cuz this problem started after playing outside (we played inside)) in the afternoon the principal called 911 we opened the windows,And finnally we knew that the thing is not dangereuse but you can't breath well,They called the ambulance,police and the fireman but don't worry im better!That day my heart hurted,throat,stomach,headache ohh it really was a crazy day =)

wow! that was crazy!!!!! i had a kid in my 3rd grade class named sebastian, he was a troublemaker and he moved....maybe he moved there!


They say so much about settin me free, i think that there are a few things that most of them would appreciate to set them free?

What is "mouth music"? Is that something you made up? First of all, if you know anything about Christianity, you would know that Mormons are not a real religion. Second, I've never heard of "Church of Jes"! Do you mean Church of Christ. Jesus Christ! His name is Jesus Christ. Are you afraid to type his name. Third, who do you think you are to have to power to change the beliefs of these churches?!?!?!? I think you are the one who needs to change your religion!


really well, and he seemed very interested. WE reconnected via the internet. We had set-up a date to finally meet each other, and then he ended up disappearing a few days before. He claimed his computer had a trojan and his phone broke. I thought I could believe him because he nver signed onto the program we met on, which was very unusual. Finally, as soon as he signed back on, he sent me a message appologzing saying that his computer had a virus and his phone broke the same day, and that he would like to make it up to me the following w/e. I said sure, I'm not mad -- you aren't obligatged to me. So, we rearranged to meet the following weekend, and again, he disappeared. I tried contacting him three times since then, and he hasn't even opened my messages. What is up with this guy? And, should I try contacting him again? The weird thing is -- before he stood me up the first time, we communicated a lot and he showed a lot of interest. I'm so confused.

dont be naive! he wanted to tease you or play with you. a guy will show interest if he is persistent, not when he feels like it. trust me. i did couple.i just telling the guy side of story. worst case scenario, you lose him. so what! theres a lot of guys out there that are sincere. think about it.


...where Tommy Lee is in a hot air balloon in the video (looking totally fruity with obvious highlights). I am ashamed to have liked that song... or maybe I didn't, I can't remember... whatever, I just need to know.

is it Good Times? in this click he also spends a bit of time in a pool.


Hi! I would appreciate if you can answer me a question.\nI am a permanent resident in Canada. If I marry my girlfriend who is visiting the US on tourist visa, how long would it take for her to enter Canada legally? She doesn't have a canadian tourist visa. Thank you.\nHave a nice day.

You should really check with Canadian Immigration before you get married.  I don't believe just marrying her ensures that she can come.  It might depend on where she is immigrating from, whether she has a criminal record of any kind, ie, even so much as a DUI infraction.  I know a Canadian woman who married a man from Trinidad and she did eventually get him here but it took approximately 3 years.  Go to the Canadian Immigration website and check what it says there.  Also, might give them a call if you want to talk to someone there for further answers to your specific situation.


I live in Austin, Texas.  I have bought a motorcycle and have studied the material for the liscense.  I have been riding for about 6 months.

In California, what is required is only proof of passing a state-run motorcycle safety course. There is no roadtest.\n\nTX info: http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/msb/txmclaws.htm#Chapter%203


Hi, What I am looking for here is a simple to use computer program that is in template format so you can create a website in simple to use step-by-step format. If anyone out there knows where I can purchase one from, and what it would be called, I would much appreciate it. (I don't want one where you pretty much have to go and do a course to learn how to use the program)

Please note I have no commercial interest in the website below.  I think they have the best templates.


I just called my ex-husband to tell him that I need the money(child support) because I need to go buy my son some diapers and other stuff.  He tells me, "Well, you're gonna have to wait until later today when I get a chance because I'm in the process of moving right now!" You need to help me too he says. I say, it's your responsibility to give me the money on Saturdays even if you do not see the kids, and he starts saying, "I don't think that for a stupid $125.00 you're gonna die!" What do I tell him now?

Tell him he's right.  That you'll have to let the judge determine how much he should be giving you and his wages should be garnished for it, that way when he is too busy, he doesn't have to stop the important stuff he is doing to go give you the money.


When I try to load Linux normally, the keyboard and mouse do not auto detect.  However, when I use the boot disk to run Linux, they are detected fine.\n\nHow do I run Linux without the boot disk, while still getting the keyboard and mouse to respond?\n\nI am running in Core Version 1 i386   In Red Hat Linux.

If they work while you are using the bootdisk you can consider that they are working well and the problem comes from the kernel of Fedora Core 1 on your machine. A kernel issue is always tricky to investigate. A common problem is that some kernel try to use the info provided by the BIOS to use peripherials (mouse/keyboard) and some directly access the hardware. That might be what is happening here. Try this, go into your bios (hardware setup at boot time) and try to change some plug'n play settings or options related to ps/2.\n\nCheers,


please somebody helpme out how can i write him a letter asking to pay off  the amount?

I think you need to kick it higher up the food chain and let the corporate lawyers take care of it.  Mistakes happen, but I'm sure at the corporate level they have dealt with this before and can track down that customer faster than you could.  Good luck!


If you know of any research on this that would be great.

It is neither.  Having functioning sex organs neither makes you healthier nor unhealthy.  The body has a way to do "system" checks on its own (erections and wet dreams over night), so it does not require that you perform any maintenance.  \n\nOn the other hand the body is designed to procreate over and over again as a way to propagate the species.  The amount of energy/nutrients required to ejaculate is really a very minor amount and does not affect you positively or negatively in the scheme of things.  \n\nIf you were to mastu*rbate excessively then I imagine it is possible to damage yourself, but you would practically need to make it a life's vocation.\n\nI looked up a couple journal articles that address your subject.  Good luck and happy playing.


For example, he's driving and she's in the opposite side and the guy is turning the radio up. Do you start getting annoying?

Yes sometimes. I don't like it that loud. Its ridiculous.


The game was against Holland.  Breitner scored a penalty and Neskins scored for Holland.

Answer: 43rd minute.\n\nIn the 43rd minute (GER) Müller, Gerhard scored the 2nd goal for Germany to win 2-1 against Netherlands in the finals of the 1974 World Cup at Munich stadium on July 7 1974 refereed by John Taylor.


Why do you not follow his teachings?\nAnd why do you say (PBH) after you say certin names?\nI mean no disrespect, just want to know. Thanks. :)

First of all Islam means totally submitting to God's will in every aspect of life. We believe that worshiping God alone and submitting to Him (Islam) is the core of every message that God has sent to the world, and thus the most important teachings of all God's messengers are the same.\nDifferences in the messages were in secondary issues and not in the core beliefs. Each message was appropriate for the time period in which it was sent. Since Islam was the last message sent by God, He Glory be to Him made it appropriate for every time and place.\n\nSo in the core beliefs we are Muslims (submitters to God) just like Jesus peace be upon him and all the messengers from Adam until Mohammed peace be upon them all.


Hemp is  mentioned in ancient Egyptian medical texts such as the Ebers papyrus as well as other places for use in making rope

before 1920 marijuana was extensively grown by the USA and Mexico for the production of fibre.which made a durable material,cheap and it does not scorch,that was used for all the  jeans,ropes,sails for the sailing ships and millions of jute bags that were used by millions of farmers,representing a multimillion dollars business.\n\nafter 1920 with the coming of synthetic materials,which were products of the petrolium business ,which were owned by the families or associates of most of the presidents,\n\nthis competitive comodity could not be allowed to continue to exist,\nand the war on Mariujana was on.\n\nthe drug factor although it has been proven beyond doubt  by countless tests that it was a relative harmless substance compared to sigarettes,alcohol and others,was blatently ignored and relentlessly the war continued to this day.\nalthough it does worry the church, since people tended to stay up all night and question religious and philosohical beliefs.some times coming to uncomplementary conclusions of what was socially accepted.\n\nalcohol puts people to sleep and they dont question the given standards.\n\ntoday Mariujana fibre is making a come back in Europe and Africa and produce designer pantalons and shirts for very high prices because the quality is superior than linnen.\n\nthese fibre plants do not produce drugs to speak of and are worthless for the drug market .it is the fibre that is the value.\n\nand organically speaking it is an exelent plant to recuporate tired soils ,after cattle and corn field have practically destroyed the land,because the plant is deep rooted grows on most altitudes,and breaks open or loosens compacted soils as well as secreting nitrogen..


I probably shouldn't admit this, but I have!\n\nI had a dream where these flowers were basically like the smurfs.  There was Brainy Flower and Happy Flower, etc.\n\nAnd then I had one where me and the Scooby family were all standing on the shore and Scrappy was sailing away, and we were all waving goodbye.\n\nSo how insane am I?

You have nooooo idea how much I envy you this second, that would be a cool dream to have :-)


As a non-believer, I'd like to understand this trend. Is the Christian Right really massive or are they just barking the loudest.

When people say this country was founded by Christians, they must be talking about the Puritans.  Puritans would consider modern day Christianity heresy.  The pilgrims consisted of three primary groups: people fleeing persecution by the Church of England (Christians by their own definition), criminals fleeing prosecution, and adventures.\n\nFormer Southern Democrats who are now neo-conservatives or Republicans are the same Christians who wanted to keep blacks as slaves and supported the “separate but equal” laws. \n\nWhen I see “In God We Trust” assuming this is referring to a Christian God, I often ask which Christian God they are referring to… Amish, Anabaptism, Assemblies of God, Baptists (both Grace and Fundamentalists), Calvinism, Christadelphians, Christian Identity, Church Universal and Triumphant, Church of Christ, Church of England, Congregationalism, Coptic Christianity, Eastern Orthodox Episcopal Church Ethiopian, IURD, Jehovah's Witnesses, Lutheran Church, Maronites, Mennonites, Nazarene, Methodism, Old Catholic Movement, Pentecostal Church, People's Temple, Pilgrims, Presbyterian Church, Protestant, Puritanism, Quakers, Roman Catholicism, Shakers, Spiritual Baptists, Thomas Christians, Unification Church, Unitarianism, United Church of Christ, Unitarian Universalist...\n\n...since most of these religions claim to be the only correct version of Christianity, which one is our country founded on?\n\nThe self proclaimed Christian right have tried to impose their beliefs on America since America was founded; that’s the reason for the first article of the Bill of Rights.  \n\nThey consist of a small group of radicals who bark loudly.


I often see a lot of complaints from religious people that atheists and people of other non-religious world-views have no business asking questions or making comments here. Surely this is a place where anyone can ask or answer a question, Religion & spirituality is not a topic reserved just for people who are pro religion is it? think about it.

anyone should be allowed to state an answer, no matter what the believe or don't belive, its called freedom of speach


My current husband had issues of me working, my family lives out of town and I wanted to make myself available.  I moved to them and thought I could go back to my ex-husband.  My problem is I still love my current husband and want to move back.  He is willing to take me back but I have to work.  I dread telling my ex-husband there is no future for us.

and women wonder why men consider them dumb.\n\nmake a decision, tell him and do it.  it's too late to worry about hurting someone's feelings.


Can you please give me an advice what can I do to buy in large quantity and sell on Ebay ? or other places ? I would like to pay off lots of bills, and working in my two jobs I can not make it. I am very good on Ebay , just don't know what product to invest it? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you

I sell sports cards on ebay and things I find around the house or on sale at stores. My advice to you would do a search in the completed items to get an idea of what kind of things sell.


This is not that same as gastoric by-pass surgery, I am only interested in banding information, thank you

I've assisted in both procedures in the O.R. Banding has a worse rate of immediate complications, in my professional experience. I don't know the specific numbers, but I think that is why less doctors are offering it and more the bypass. Of course I should add that both have a decent postoperative long term risk, and that this risk can be reduced for either by finding a HIGHLY qualified surgeon.\nSorry I took so long to respond, I answered your question as I was logging out. If you want my opinion on this further just give me an email and I'll tell you more about what I know.


nasty messages she/he? is commenting on.\n\nI've noticed the people that post questions about liking  or thinking about having a Menage e twa or whatever sexually.....are the questions she zeros in on.\n\nLet's face it a lot of these religious people are frauds behind closed doors---they're just hypocrites--- quite often lesser humans than those that don't study the 'scriptures'. Jim Jones, Jim & Tammy Faye Baker, Osama... they're all nut cases...no different than the Raider Nation--- but they profess they're better. *pppffffttttt*\n\nI say she/he gets off sexually from these questions.\n\n\nWhat to you think about this Celtic Woman?----she'll probably answer this question with a response that I need to focus my attention on knitting and reading the bible.\n\nGimme a break!\n\nI seen the perfect bumper sticker once and it read;\n\n' I've got nothing against God, it's his fan club I can't stand!'

I think you're right about religious people.\nThey are soooo codependent.  (ick)


can science explain the sources and mouths of winds and oceans?

If you think about it, the "source" of a river is not a real thing; It's just a single spot in the water cycle. Rain falls, collects, runs into streams, runs into rivers, run to a lake or an ocean, evapourates into clouds, and goes round again.  You could argue that anywhere in this cycle is a starting point, or nowhere.  Gravity & evapouration are driving this cycle.  In the same way, winds are just air moving from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure. What causes these differences in pressure is what starts the winds a-blowing.  Some of the factors involved are temperature changes in the oceans, and the friction of the atmosphere against the earth as it turns.


the food to take...\nthe types of vitamns...\nand anything else...

your mind,  like your body need exercise to function well. a few way to exercises your mind is to some crossword, puzzle, or play common games like solitaire, or chess to sharp your mind. keep on adding, multiplying,and subtracting. Do not depend always in calculator. A least once a week memorize a poem, or joke or a psalm. This will help to keep in mind in shape, and will increase your brain power in time. Learn to think inventively. Let ideas  come forth. A good hint is to think like a child. They think with creativity., wonder and curiosity; allow yourself to daydream,as this will increase your brain power and keep your sharp mind. Do not limit yourself being a one type of person. be many persons! Think as many as ways as you can. keep a pen an a paper in every room of your environment so that when you think an idea  you can jot it down immediately. Do not afraid to making a mistake.

Peer-to-peer programs are free software that are available on the internet for everyone to download music, movies or whatever.\nI just need your opinion...What do you think of peer-to-peer programs -In general-?

for music some are ok, some a riddled with adware and spyware, to some extent malware, other peer to peer programs? prolly the same stuff applies. ups and downs, but if used correctly all for the better,


that loved one was my hubby and i got 2 boys who was so endeared to him

Your late husband will ALWAYS know what is going on with you and his boys.  He still loves you, and wants you all to be happy.  If (and when) you meet another man, know that he understands.  He is gone, but you still have a life to continue with.  I can not say I know how you feel.  If I lost my husband, I would have a VERY hard time going on without him.  You have 2 sons to live for and help thru this awful time.  God love you all.


im looking for someone in grenada ms with no home phone who works for direct tv

Well why not try calling DirectTV and ask them about the person you are looking for, given that you at least know there first/last name.


i know at the beginning they play the jaws theme, its the song after that im trying 2 find out!

Havent seen or heard this years premier league but Jaws often plays Sword of a Thousand Men by Tenpole Tudor. Dont know if he is using it on this occasion though


Why is the phobia of long words such a long word? I mean seriously, if you're afriad of long words how are you going to explain to people that you're a Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobe?

i've just asked myself the same question a few hours ago. i guess it's for them to be able to face their fears. or maybe the scientists just wanted to torture them. :P


I don't think that you'd be able to find a roster for any school.  Not with all the nut jobs out there.  It would be really scary if just anybody could get a hold of the names of those kids!  And hopefully, it's illegal.


My friend hurt his back. I borrowed him 2800.00 to help keep his house, get medicine, food, etc. Now he adds me to his bankruptcy after promises to repay if and when gets settlement for hurting back. Won't talk with me either as now is marrying a woman he proposed to on first time getting together after chatting on internet since Jan. Moving her to WI from ND.

Contact a lawyer to find out your rights and to sue for the money.

he always trys to beat me up but i defend myself what should i do the next time he picks a fight.

Avoid him but if he attacks you defend yourself.  If he was a friend call his parents and tell them he's doing it.\nIf he's over 18 call the police.


500cc of pure power, no brakes and men in leather OOOOOOOOOOHHHH eRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

In my personal option, the sport of speedway is to specialist. The rules are complicated. Also not enough is done by the promoters to develop the sport. Having said that::: 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds no brakes no fear the fastest fun in town. Go on the Glasgow Tigers...

cos they make mor money by entertainin da public-v adore them so much,th@ v buy all their recordz!


i'm talking about in teenagers or young adults...why does it change them and make them act very different?

For several reasons.  One, taking drugs alters your perceptions.  A person who takes drugs is profoundly altering their world-view.  They are "learning/experiencing" things that others don't and it alters them.\n\nSecond, many people take drugs as a form of self-medication.  Ex.  They are emotionally hurting over something and take drugs to feel better; or it is a cry for help.\n\nRegardless, taking recreational drugs can potentially harmful.  Before ingesting substances that could harm you, you should research exactly what it will do for you.\n\nI work as an ER nurse and have seen the dangers of drug abuse.  Marijuana is pretty much harmless, but things like crystal meth are insane.  I wish people could see what "tweakers" look like when they wig out.  I wish they could see the PET scans of tweakers brains... the ones where the brains look like swiss cheese.


its a pirated windows xp,i have only the cd key? how can i use that win xp properly?how we can crack that win xp? plz answer this !

Everyone should take this to heart.  If you download an OS from the web.\n\nIt is not going to work.  If you do not have the activation key to XP or any other one you are just asking for trouble.\n\nIt is an illegal website.\n\nDB


plz show me how to do this steps by step

alright, first off remember:  (x,y)  these three points have something obvious to begin with, the x value is the same in all three points.  Therefore every point would be at two on the horizontal plane.  Thus, we have a vertical line!  You know of course this means that the y value is irrelevent and the equation you get is x=2.  for anycombination of x and y values you put together they will come up on this line since x will always be two, and y can be any number you want.  Hope this helps.


I want to know which one sees far and which one sees near, negative number eye glasses (eg -3) or positive number eye glasses.

Negatives are prescriptions for near-sightedness (can't see far away) also known as myopia. This happens when the eye is longer then normal from the front to the back. Postives are for far-sightedness (can't see up close), also known as hyperopia. This occurs when the eye is shorter than normal from front to back. The same symptoms of hyperopia occur in most aging people due to a inability of the aging eye to focus properly - a condition known as presbyopia. It is often confused with hyperopia because the first symptoms are blurry vision up close, but the two conditions have different causes, and presbyopia worsens to include blurry vision at all distances. Presbyopia is believed to be caused by a loss of flexibilty in the lens of the eye over time. \n\nAstigmatism is caused by an irregularly shaped cornea or lens, and causes blurred vision as well. Please refer to the site listed if you would like to know more.

disc partitionlike fat,ntfs,what is the advantage of this two

New Technology File System\n\nNTFS or New Technology File System is the standard file system of Windows NT and its descendants Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. Windows versions 95, 98, 98SE and ME cannot natively read NTFS filesystems, although third-party utilities do exist for this purpose.\n\nNTFS replaced Microsoft's previous FAT file system, used in MS-DOS and early versions of Windows. NTFS has several improvements over FAT such as improved support for metadata and the use of advanced data structures to improve performance, reliability and disk space utilization plus additional extensions such as security access control lists and file system journaling. Its main drawback is its very limited support by non-Microsoft OSes, since the exact specification is a trade secret of Microsoft.


I was expecting to pay ALOT, and my tax guy wiggled a very minimal payment.  I want to tip him, but am not sure how to go about it.

I'm an accountant, and we never expect tips.  A lot of clients will offer things like dinner at a nice restaurant or tickets to an event if they want to do something nice, or offer their products or services in return (example, liquor store owner gives a nice bottle of wine.)  But its definitely not expected or required.


my 10 year old sister is a little over weight. Shes 5 foot 3. And her birthday is on May 29, 1995. Shes turning 11 soon. She weights 97 pounds. Is she over weight? And could it get serious when getting older.

I really don't see a problem with that weight. My daughter just tuned 12 last month, she is about 5'3" also and weighs 100 pounds even. She is quite thin. When she worries about "getting fat" I just have to remind her that she is still growing and needs to eat, but eat good foods and not junk because it is not really how much you eat that puts on the weight, it is what you eat.\nI have also noticed that right before she has a growth spurt in height, she gets a little, I don't know, "rounder"\nand her jeans get a little tight but a couple of weeks later they fit her again in the waist but now they are too short. If she is really worried about it then maybe you could get her to walk or go bike riding with you. I have found with my kids and siblings that they did not become worried about weight themselves, rather it was something somebody else said or did to make them worry about it in the first place.\nGood luck, I hope you come up with something to make her feel more confident.


i am so in love with this boy its unbelievable. also i am so confused its unbelievable. anyone willing to answer a really long and confusing question, because i'm not going to post it for no1 to answer. i'll post it in 5 minutes, so click on my name. thanks. tell me if you'll answer it.

hi =]\n\ni'll be willing to answer your question =] ask away


Please read the following link first, thank you...\nhttp://newsroom.eworldwire.com/view_release.php?id=14191\nDoesn't it sound familiar?  It does seem to have parallels to it.  Isn't this one of our biggest dangers now?  Losting the freedoms we have to those that want a wholly religious country run by one religion?  Wasn't the US founded to get AWAY from religious persecution not to give Christians a homeland so they can persecute everyone else?

We absolutely MUST protect the First Amendment!  It is the pinnacle of what we are as a nation, and to destroy it is to destroy the nation.  No joke!\n\nI had not been aware of any serious attempts to have us declared a "Christian Nation," but they must be resisted staunchly.  Not only because many of us are not Christian, but because we need to protect our rights even in the abstract.  It is true that non-Christians might be permitted to be citizens in a Christian Nation.  Or they might not.  Or they might only if they contributed to Christian churches.  In any case, this would not really be America, the Home of the Free and the Brave, if this assault on our First Amendment succeeds.\n\nEven if you are a Christian, do you really want to support losing our freedom?


I am wondering when the new 2006 movie "The Benchwarmers" DVD will be released.

it just came out in theaters so it'll be at least 2 months


I never heard of them before. I don't want to discourage you. If you interested I think you should look at what you getting and what is will actually cost in both time and money. \n\nMy experience with a similar deal was that most people don't find that they end up losing money.


I haven't seen him for 4 long years then one day out of the blue he calls me asking me to come see him and he miss me.

What you have to do is remember that you're x's for a reason, don't dwell on all the happy, romantic stuff that went on with you and him, think of why you broke up and how you felt and what the problems were.  There's always a good reason why we break up with someone.


how many seasons did this run for. they showed 3/4 of season 1 in australia and that was it. whats happening?????????????????????

it's a conspirashit, i'm tellin ya, all they want to do is show you a fragment of this delightful show and then take it away as with everything else our jobs, our rights, what's next, our panties? i hope so, any way you can find the show you are looking for on nickelodeon, you did ask for sesame street didn't you, was that the question? am i being quizzed here, what's going on?


My gf has this thing with tickling my feet every chance she gets but I hate it with a passion. My feet are so ticklish.

I've never been a big fan of being tickled at all, so count me in.


Do you remember Intelevision...Asteroids on Atari..plastic bracelets-looped through and pulled together to make one bracelet..leg warmers...Top Gun (before all the insanity)...remember thinking the video games then had awesome graphics?  USA for Africa?  Madonna with greasy bad hair and serious dark roots?  \n\nThere is one video game I can't remember the name of...don't remember the system but it was either Atari or Intelevision...it was a little chef, and you had to put a hamburger together before the salt shaker got you, or something like that?  All I remember is that I used to rule at that game!!!  And Ms. Pac Man too.  What are your favorite things from the 80's?  And what is the name of that video game?

BURGER TIME!!!  I was a child of the 80's too!  It was Intellevision..I loved Dungeons and Dragons with that system.  I loved Missing Persons, Yaz, The Cure, The Cult, Sisters of Mercy, Duran Duran.  Big hair, Neon colored lipstick.  "Do they know it's Christmas"  All of the John Hughes movies...All of it!


Because of another question posted, I just did a little search on scientology and came across 2 sites.\n\nwww.lisamcpherson.org & www.whyaretheydead.net\n\nLooking at this has really disturbed me.\n\nMy only association with the church of scientology was when I went along for a free perdonality and iq test they were handing out brochures for in the city. After my personality test, a guy sat down with me and tried to tell me how screwed up I was and how they could help.

The word Scientology literally means "the study of truth." It comes from the Latin word "scio" meaning "knowing in the fullest sense of the word" and the Greek word "logos" meaning "study of." \n\nScientology is the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, others and all of life. The Scientology religion comprises a body of knowledge extending from certain fundamental truths. Prime among these: \n\nMan is an immortal, spiritual being. His experience extends well beyond a single lifetime. His capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized — and those capabilities can be realized. He is able to not only solve his own problems, accomplish his goals and gain lasting happiness, but also achieve new, higher states of awareness and ability. \n\nIn Scientology no one is asked to accept anything as belief or on faith. That which is true for you is what you have observed to be true. An individual discovers for himself that Scientology works by personally applying its principles and observing or experiencing results. \n\nThrough Scientology, people all over the world are achieving the long-sought goal of true spiritual release and freedom. \n\nThis aka, "cult" was created by —L. Ron Hubbard \nThe Creation of Human Ability \n\nHe is the one the authored the book, Dianetics?\n\nLets go to scripture and see what the Word of god speaks of these false teachings.\n\n2 Peter 2:01,2............:1But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping. \n\n1st John 4:01...........1 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. \n\nMore or less sister we both know that this is a flase teaching and the spirit has warned us..\nSo God bless and Amen...


....where the hell is God going to find 40 virgins each for all of them? Maybe they misread the contract and it's 40 for all of them to share? That would be too funny!! Either that or they'll be given clones I guess..This is just one of those things that make you go "hmmm

They ran out of virgins, god is only providing virgin sheep for the rest of them.


you are an idiot..you think the U.S. stole border states but america bought them...and my state TEXAS fought for our independece and beat Santa Anna too (ever heard of the alamo and the battle of san jaceto???)... so you need to shut up and quit talking about stuff you know nothing about!!!

Thank You so much! And JD too, You KNOW what I mean! She certainly is a an airhead.

I've got this girl friend who's just perfect for me.she mentioned  me to her parents as a friend...but for that itself they told her 2 forget about me 'cause they thought this would lead to luv problemsi.e, the type we see so often in movies!we really love each other...And i dont wanna giveup on her that easily. Her parents wish 2 find someone who they think is perfect. She's asked me 2 decide whether or not i wanted such aproblematic relationship! What 2 do?

She's either saying that to get rid of you in a nice way or she's telling the truth.\nIf she's telling the truth then you will need to make that decision on your own!


i'm just curious on how this all works? i've never met this guy, only talked to him on the phone. is he reallly interested in helping me, or is he just out to get comission? how do i know for sure that the numbers he's telling me,like the interest% and all that are actuallly going to be the numbers i end up with. i would really appreciate any advice on this

When you apply for a mortgage your application is reviewed based on a specific interest rate.  They determine if you will qualify at that rate.  Once they determine that you are qualified they will give you a "commitment".  The commitment is a written document where they are promising to give you a loan for a specified amount at a specified rate.  You are required to sign the commitment and return a copy for the commitment to be valid and enforceable.  Once there is a signed commitment they have to honor those terms.  However, the interest rate in the commitment often is valid for only 30 to 90 days.  The commitment will specify how long the interest rate is "locked".\n\nTo sum it up, the broker can promise you the world but only the commitment will contain the numbers that you end up with.  And unless the broker is a personal friend or relative then he is most likely out to get the commission.

What types of things will a women consider while she is thinking if she will or will not ever return to an ex?

How well he treated me the first time around. How intelligent he is. How responsible and financially stable he is. How he treats other people. How he handled our breakup. And if I'm still physically attracted to him.


Well as far as i've read there are two kinds of fat distribution in body apple type (predominant fat in abdominal region ) and pear type ( more in thighs and hips )...  plz provide me a plan for diet and exercise specific for this region.\nAlso tell me about the time it takes to reduce fat in the body... i am about 10-12 kgs overweight so if i am exercising and restricting high calories then in how much time can i expect to lose weight and how much?

About fat distribution, everyone is different, but if you're trying to lose fat from one area, it can't be done without loosing fat from all over your body at the same time. You can try toning the area with leg excercises, but ultimately, it still won't be as effective as total fat loss.  Perfect example, those Ab-Rollers you see on tv, promising bodybuilder like abs in just 5 min a day. If you excercise and start loosing fat, the abs will naturally show...\nAbout your weight loss, don't try to lose too much weight too quickly, ie crash dieting. When your body reaches your ideal weight, you will start binge eating and put it straight back on... your best bet is to slowly reduce your calorie intake, make sure you eat breakfast with a low GI index, and don't eat late at night. Just by changing your eating habits you will re-program your metabolism which will be more effective.


i have been dating someone for more than 6 months we live about a mile apart but never see each other, most of the time i feel like it doesn't bother her, because she only says she likes talking to me and misses me when we don't talk. but doesn't say she wants to spend time with me, and doesn't ever talk about making plans to see me, when i do get her to agree to come over for dinner she never shows up, and i can't get a hold her for a day or 2. the most time i was spending with her was when she needed help at work. anyway i broke up with her lst week because i was putting way to much effort into the relationship and getting nothing in return was making me lonly, and bitter. saturday night was her b-day party which i never got invited too. i found out from her friend that she was dating someone else. i told her i hoped that woman would treat her good, and wished her the best of luck. since that night my ex has been wanting to get back together. would i be crazy to buy her presents?

Sometimes we go through these things before we find out why we left to begain with and than we want them back. So one more chance dont hurt if you still care. Go buy her a present and you two enjoy a special brithday together and if someone knocks on the door dont answer it. This will be both of your time alone.\n\nI came back and seen what else you typed she didnot show up then but if she is wanting to make up, try one more time you have nothing to lose. This time maybe different i sure hope so you seem to care alot and thats hard to get from someone is the love you have for her. From me to you i hope you find away for you both.


I am a Libera, I was born on October 17,1991


In order of number and suit, just as if you openned the deck for the first time. Also assuming that you aren't really trying to shuffle them into order. Based on the odds of this being a happenstance.

Shuffling is pretty complex as you probably mean a riffle shuffle or something like that.  But let's assume you're shuffling by spreading out all the cards on the table, and randomly picking them.\n\nAssuming you want the cards in a specific order, then for each card, you'd have to randomly select the "right" card.  For the first card, you have 52 to choose from, and a 1/52 chance of getting it right.  For the second card, you now have 51 to choose from and thus a 1/51 chance of getting it right...on down to the last card.\n\nSo your odds are:\n\n1/52 * 1/51 * 1/50 * 1/49 * ... * 1/3 * 1/2 * 1/1\n\nor 1/52! or about 1/8*10^69.  To put that in perspective, lets say all 6 billion people on earth are shuffling one trillion times a second (man is that fast shuffling!) for a billion years, you're still not even in the ball park of being close (1/10^30) of having one person get it right.

Tell me, is it really like it is on Hitch?

well, I would pick you up five minutes prior to the date, just to let you know that i care, & then drive you to a fancy restaurant where the waiter gives you a menu choice of what wine you'd like to drink, particually a restaurnt with a romantic view, & then to a movie, it would have to be a good chick flick, & then bring you to a night life/market where I would find a cheap foreign street vendor who is taking pictures & pay him $5 for our picture together, & then find another cheap foreign street vendor who is selling roses & buy you one, & bring you home...safe & sound, then wait for you to call me back for another date...:D yes it would be like it is on Hitch, I would listen to everything you have to say to me...:)


I have had a discharge for 2 years and still haven't started my period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are definitely going through puberty, but when your period will arrive is still a guess. Breast development, hair under your arms, a growth spurt, and a white/clear vaginal discharge are all signs that your body is maturing. You are definitely headed in the right direction...just hang in there.


We talk about legal, illegal, open borders, come one come all. The world is welcome \nAt present the world population is 6.6 billion people adding two people every second.\nEach person living in the USA uses 5 times more resources then any other country in the world.\n\nEverything has a carring capacity regarding land and natural resources like Water.\n\nCauses and effect of population also effect law/ rules to accommadate more and more people. Less Freedoms.\nThinking of those issues. The question is:\nAt what number does the USA have to get to before you would say it is enough????\n\n1. The number\n\n2. How would you stop it? or do you think you could??????\n\nPLEASE KEEP IT SHORT. and \nNO RACIST STATEMENTS UNLESS OF COURSE YOU ARE THE  "VILLAGE IDOIT".

The magic number is whatever our legal population is right now. How to stop it... Close the border immediately. Remove all illegals.\n\nPlain and simple.


Dad is suddenly very ill and dying of undetected cancer.  He has no life insurance and we don't know how we will put him to rest.  I need guidance as to where to go to find out what we can do.  We live in MA.  This is all new to us, scary and so, so sad but we need to plan now.  What do we do?

I found this information that is specific to MA.  There are certain qualifications for it, but it may be worth looking in to.  Good luck.


I brush my teeth 2 times a day for 2 minutes everytime. I also brush my tongue.

looks like your on the beginnings of gingivitis..lasting bad breath is one of the symptoms.  When youre brushing..actually use a tongue scraper and start as far back as you can in your mouth.  Should help, along with like Listerine..for the bactereia


To be fair the twins didn't start this war.  But I get behind the idea of Cheney and Rumsfield riding down the Iraqi streets in an unarmored open air jeep.


my husband is having an affair and we live in a no-fault state, but his "girlfriend" keeps him away from our kids, doesn't come home to 6am, then leaves at 8am the next day.  He spends a grand total of 4hous a week with them. Should I try to obtain pictues of them spending time together.

Get all the pics and other evidence and then sue his girlfriend for Alienation of Affection. She took your husbands affections away from you and the kids. Once you win in court, have her paycheck Garnished. \n\nNow that you've done this, DIVORCE THE SOB!!


is it weird that some girls( not me lol) like to watch guys jerk off? i think it all has to do with the way he touches himself...and the way he cums... do any other girls like that? and would most guys let a girl watch them do that in person?

Hmmm.....and I thought I was one of FEW!  I LOVE watching/hearing/seeing/helping a guy jack off.  Could it BE any hotter?  I fantasize about which hand a guy might use, how he does it, what he thinks about, etc....\nBesides actual sex, that's the BIGGEST turn on for me!  I always tell my husband, If I'm ever NOT in the mood, start stroking, and I'd be instantly WET!!!!!  \nHey, guys enjoy watching a woman play solo too!!!!


please answer this seriously thank you!! i could not find the answer for my homework antwhere.

She spend much time at charch and read a lot, she cares too much about money and she never spend, her style is unusual, she looks like a 50+ woman, she only have bath/shower once a month. Her room looks like dirty young man's room But she is so nice.

Sounds to me like this lady needs some counselling.\nWhile she may be a nice woman in some ways, she may actually be being 'abusive/disrespectful' in others... \n\nFor instance - if she was a missionary and was sent out in the field to do gods work, then she would expect the church to fund her needs. Regardless of how much money she gets, it is hers and she is free to do with it as she wills. But if she is 'mooching' off others and expecting others to fund her lifestyle without a mandate from them to say they will agree to support her, then that is selfish and inappropriate.\n\nAlso...she may have what she considers to be good reasons for only bathing one a month... maybe she is concerned about the environment etc but the key to this is whether her daily personal hygiene is adequate so as not to cause offence to others. Putting it bluntly... if she smells then she needs to deal with that or she is abusing/disrespecting other peoples needs to be comfortable around others.\n\nAnd when it comes to her room... that is between the woman and the person who is letting her stay. It is her personal space and this should be respected, however since she is there by the grace of a friend, then they have to determine how far they are prepared to accept her untidiness etc... and take into account whether it is likely to attract vermin etc.  If staying with friends you should respect their space and property, so failure to do so is another abuse/disrespect situation.\n\nAt the end of the day it is up to her hosts to set the limits and conditions of her stay before she moves in - how much she pays, when she pays, whether she contributes to house work, how her room is expected to be kept, etc.\n\nI hope the people who are bothered by this most (coz clearly the woman isnt bothered) can manage to speak to her, maybe with a mediator, and resolve the situtaion to their mutual satisfaction.


Regular tap water is chlorinated.  If I were to boil water and cook rice and pasta in it, does the rice or pasta absorb the chlorine?  Do you know of any studies or documentation either way?

The chlorine should boil out of the water. I have used strongly-chlorinated water to make both, and I've never tasted it in either rice or pasta. Nothing to worry about.

Almost every state has a cap of what attorney fees are.  This cap is on a sliding scale (eg, first $250k is 30%, next $250k is 25%, etc.)   \n\nQuestion is whether the client can negotiate down.

You can always negotiate, it's just a matter of what the market will bear. You can't swing a dead cat in NY without hitting an attorney, so you can always try another one (or ten). However (i) ask yourself what is the incentive for the attorney to go lower than he/her peers; and (ii) do you really want to hire a cut rate or discount attorney? Would you go to a discount doctor? Would you eat bargain sushi?\n\nSympathies to you on your loss and good luck finding counsel.


I have a couple margaritas before bedtime,three hours later I am wide awake.

cuz it does....why would an alcoholic ask a silly question like that?


should i remove the oil cap when i am going to put on a hyperspace module so i can go back to past... i mean to my buddy's house(i'm not building a time machine, so don't ask)so anyways, should i do that because i figure when i get back there in 1592......i mean on main street, where my buddy lives, they will only be riding horses, or humans that aren't as advanced as say you or ME, so why will i need an oil cap anyway, right? i'm only planning on going back there so i can bet the guy with the mustache a million dollars that i can win at a quarter mile drag, and i figure he'll go for it because this car has a pony on the front of it, so it only appears, you know, natural in it's surrounding, know what i'm saying. any other advice on this matter would be much appreciated, thanks all you gearheads out there! i know you won't let me down

man, you NEED the cap. youll loose preasure as the revs throw oil all over the engine comartment. fuel, carry gas or fill all the way up before you go. that hyperspace module, is that aftermarket bolt on or did you have to machine the heads & manifold?  thanx, that was fun.

OK..Most of us have downloaded free trial software with a life-span of about 30 days or so.  Well, the question is how can you completely erase any trace of that particular software having been on your computer.  My goal is to be able to re-load that same trial software.  Deleting the software through the ADD/REMOVE function is not effective.   Any help would be appreciated and if you have any ideas of other ways to go around deleting /re-loading please feel free to comment.  \n\nPS: No negative comments necessary …thanks

Well...erasing any trace of a trial software can be impossible  most of the time, but sometimes, you may change the date of you system to a later date, and then install the trial software, this will probably give you some more time if you set the date back to the normal. but make sure you don't make a big gap between the two dates.\nAnother way is to re-install your operating system, this one always works perfectly...good luck ;)

Honestly, it really depends on what you are looking for. \n\nIf you are looking for the best long term shine, I would recomend a non silicone sealant wax. This will last longer than almost any other wax, but doesn't have the extreme shine of some others. The type we use at our detailing company is called Sealtek ACR. It is great stuff, it takes a little more time to cure, but it leaves a great finish.\n\nIf you are looking for something that has an ulitmate shine, your best bet would be a carnuba wax. This stuff looks the best of any other kind of wax, but it also lasts the least amount of time. The major problem with this kind of wax is that it does not stand up to heat very well. In many cases, you can tell if a car has been waxed with carnuba because you will begin to see white spots on the hood after really hot days. These are not dangerous, it just means that the wax is literally melting off the car due to heat.\n\nFor a do-it-yourself wax job, I would definately recommend a wax/cleaner. These are generally a bit more expensive, and they are availiable with almost any type of wax. The benefit from this approach is that the cleaner/wax removes most small particles that build up on paint due to acid rain, smog, or just about anything else that can't simply be washed off. I have even used this stuff to remove acid etching on windows. It works well and it will last longer. Just look for a kinds that has the best mix of durability and shine that you are looking for.\n\nOh yeah, avoid MacGuires of any kind. While they carry a smaller pricetag, the company is notorious for poor quality control, having been known for weak mixtures, as well as extremely high levels of dissolved solids in their wax.

what would u ask?\nconsidering its advantages/disadvantages?

When you are making a good survey, you need to consider exactly what you want to know.  Do you want to know how people feel in general, or how they feel about specific issues.  Then you want to decide what questions best measure this.  For instance, if you want to know what limits people think should be in place in regards to freedom of speech, you would think of questions that measure this more specifically. For instance: Do you feel that the freedom of speech applies to all people? Do you feel it applies to all types of speech? Do you feel that there should be rules regulating people's speech. You might also make a list of potential situations that people might think that free speech should be protected or regulated (Racial slurs, hate speech, threatening language, opposition to government officials, etc...).  You just have to make sure that your questions all answer your big questions and that you can measure your survey afterwards.


Tell me, do you think that it makes me look weak if I cry or just look hurt when I see my ex~boyfriend and his new girlfriend...and if he still calls me does he still care about me?

I know it hurts terribly, and I sincerely sympathize.  However, I'd personally do everything I could to avoid seeing him.  Crying could possibly give the appearance that your life is so devoid that you are just pining over something that you have no control over, and yes, you could appear weak.\n\nWhy is your boyfriend calling you?  It sounds like a bad idea.  I'd make a clean break and get on with your life.  I know that he may seem like the only one on earth for you, but if it's over, it's over.  Believe it or not, one day, you will find someone who really is perfect for you, and then you'll be thankful that you didn't have to put-up with second-best!  \n\nShow him your backbone and move on.  And don't accept calls from him.


Is there a closed form for e^(x^2)? I mean a proof... someone told me that there is no such closed form, but I can't trust him :D he's a teacher :))

Integral of e^(x^2)dx = (Sqrt[Pi]*Erfi[x])/2\nErfi[x] = imaginary error function\nErf[x] is the integral of the Gaussian distribution, given by (2/sqrt(pi)) * Integral from 0 to x of (e^(-t^2))dt


the greenhouse effect means that the earth is getting hotter, therefore glaciers/the antartic etc places with ice are melting and penguins/polar bears wont surive, the ocean level will eventually rise, drowning or countries etc, all this becuase we all waste energy and dont protect environment........whats your opinion? im doing a report for college

Global warming and cooling, in nature, has cycles beyond our control. AS a species, we have vastly accelerated the warming by CO2 emissions from burning of fossil fuel. The CO2 is/has formed higly reflective shield around the globe that holds heat IN, yet allows sunlight to go through it. The heat builds up, but cannot escape fast enough to prevent warming of the planet. We have reached a critcal stage in this cycle. IF we do not greatly reduce CO2 emissions within the next 10 years, it will be too late for us to stop the cycle that has started. Ice caps will melt and the surface of the Earth will change drastically. Storms will intensify dramatically, having more and more heat to power them. WE are within just a few years of a catastrophe, and yet, no one seems willing to act upon it, in fact, no one seems to even acknowledge the pending disaster. Life as we know it will be very different than it is today. WE are, time wise, just around the corner from a life threatening climate which will be conducive to an instant ICE AGE. If you have any doubt, see the movie, "Day After Tomorrow." The premise of the movie is NOT sci fi...it is very real.


i want to know if children spend enough time outside during breaktime to help stimulte and relax them

yes....I think the breaks are plenty long enough. my kids are elementary school ages and they get a 15 minute recess after lunch...gives them enough time to run a burn a few calories, and relax before diving back in to school work. Not to mention, they have gym and if it is nice weather they go out side for gym too. They also get 15 min either in the AM before lunch or in the PM after lunch depending on what time they go to lunch.\nthe school systems are not to blame for child hood obesity...they are there to educate our children  not be a fat farm for them...

Can i make a layout for a website on Photoplus and Webplus? I want to know this because partly, i want to own my own website. Do you know any other site where i can reg. and make my own website, too? Can you also tell me sites on HTML and CSS coding? Thanks.

Obviously, you need to learn a lot about PHP, HTML, CSS and many others before owning a site. Uh, I don't make layouts using Photoplus and Webplus. I use Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe ImageReady CS2 often to create layouts.


My friend and I are having a little dispute over who the better NBA player is ... Sam Cassel or Carmelo Anthony ...

In all fairness to Carmelo Anthony, it still may be to early to tell due to Anthony's 3 years in the league compared to Sam Cassell's 18 year career.\n\nIf you're wanting to know whom currently is the better player I'd have to give the edge to Cassell.  Cassell is a veteran who can still score (17.2 ppg this season) and is considered the consummate leader by his fellow teammates.  Cassell also hands out 6.3 dimes a game and records nearly a steal a game (.93).\n\nCarmelo Anthony on the other hand hasn't quite attained the leadership role on his team, nor is considered widely as a go-to guy at crunch time.  Anthony's scoring average is impressive (26.5 ppg) as is his defense (1.1 steals/game), but he's still a bit from becoming a complete player.\n\nAgain to Anthony's credit, given another 2 years, 5 year career, then I'd expect to see him as the leader of his squad.  Using this season as a measure of each player, the Clippers are hot in the first round of the playoffs, the Nuggets not so hot.  Cassell made a huge difference on the Clippers this year.


ie the differential in Japaneese yen and a kenyan shiiling compared to the Dollar and the relative economy of the 2 countries {KENYA AND JAPAN}

Currencies are based on purchasing power, and interest rates in nations. If there are high interest rates that exsists in say the U.S. and low interest rates in Japan the exchange rates will move in the favor of the U.S.  If inflation is high in the U.S. compared to Kenya the U.S. dollar will fall to the shilling. To maintain equal purchasing or investing power between the two nations. This happens because in a free market world economy the prices of all similar goods and services will have very similar if not the same prices.

In next week's lottery draw.I want to know if I will win the jackpot of one or the other lottery.

Magic 8-Ball says: "REPLY HAZY. ASK AGAIN LATER."


One-dimensional motion is motion along a straight line, and cen be represented by four variables, velocity (v), time (t), displacement (x), and acceleration (a).  There are five equations that can solve for any unknown variable, assuming constant acceleration:\ndelta x=v(delta t)\ndelta v=a(delta t)\ndelta x=v initial*delta t + 0.5a(delta t)^2\ndelta x=v(delta t) - .5a(delta t)^2\nv^2=v inital^2 + 2a(delta x)\n\nAlso, keep in mind the derivative of displacement is velocity and the derivative of velocity is acceleration.  Likewise, the integral of acceleration is velocity and the integral of velocity is displacement.


hi i broke up with this girl couple weeks ago and after we broke up we did not talk at all. she broke up with me cuz she said she needs to improve on her grade cuz she got a C in class and she cried for that.  but she kept looking at me cuz my friends said she does and but she doesnt talk to me. why is that?  should i call her or just leave her alone?  but why is she keep looking at me but not talk to me?

Sounds like she wants to be with you but she needs to work on her school first. Let her get her grades up but tell her you want to continue to be friends. It will all work out. She doesn't talk to you because she knows that if she does then she will end up with you again and she really does need some space for awhile to work on school.


I think the best was as a rookie he jumped from just inside the foul line and dunked it Jordan style. I've only seen him do it from this far once ever. And I'm not sure why it's never replayed.

Could it be possible that you are affraid to let your emotions flow because you fear getting hurt? You obviously know how to communicate as you are asking a question to complete strangers. Is it a fear of intimacy or a fear of expressing your emotions? Take the time to think about it. I'm sure the answer you seek is already in you. You may just need more time for self reflection to realize it. And if not, then put yourself in his shoes and see how you would feel if you were him and didn't hear it said back. Good luck with this.

Are the services usually held during the day? Or in the evening?\n\nJust curious.

I've been to both. In reality, Jesus, and all others, when they were crucified, by Jewish custom had to be taken down from the cross (dead) before sunset Friday, which is why the Roman soldier put the spear through his side. They usually broke the legs of those crucified on the cross to hasten their death, but since Bible prophecy said that none of Jesus' bones would be broken, they stabbed him instead. So, I think they ought to have Good Friday services just before sunset, but in reality it doesn't really matter. It's the commemoration of the event that matters.


How do we know the length and the thick of our galaxy,and once more question why scientists know that our solar system lie in the edge of milky way galaxy?\n\nThanks

If you look at the sky on a clear night, away from city lights and polluted air, you'll see a milky band of light right across the sky, the Milky Way, our galaxy.   With a small telescope you'll see the milkiness is made of individual stars.You're looking at the plane of ourgalaxy.   If you look away from this band of light you're looking out into intergalactic space away from the thickness of our galaxy so you don't see so many stars.   If you look in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius, you'll see the Milky Way seems to get wider and brighter.   This is the centre of the galaxy.   So the galaxy is shaped like two dinner plates facing each other, circular, and fatter at the centre than at the edges.   The centre is bright because stars are packed closer together there than way out here.   We know that we're about 30 000 light years from the centre, the diameter of the galawy is about 100 000 light years and the thickness at the centre is about 3000 light years because a particular type of star called a Cepheid variable gets brighter and dimmer with a period that depends on how bright it is.   So we know how bright it really is.   By measuring how bright it appears, we can work out haw far away it is.   So by looking at Cepheids in different parts of the galaxy we can work out its measurements.   And if we look at other galaxies outside our own, many of them are the same shape; fat in the centre, thin at the edges, with spiral arms curving out from the centre, like cloud bands in a hurricane.


Began talking to chief engineer aboard my tug who recently recovered from lyme. As he described his ordeal it was like he was telling me my wifes life story. She has been called the "mystery patient" due to her symptoms and unrespnsiveness to varied treatments. After doing some research last night I am now convinced that not only has my wife got lyme disease, but my youngest child as well. He suffered from unexplained sezuires, coughs, thirst, overactive bladder and rashes. 2 weeks ago I ramoved what I thought was a wood tic from my oldest while camping. Last night I find out it was a "lone star" female carrier. I live in NC and am looking for open minded specialist, as my wife now has a great distrust of doctors.

The allopathic medical system looks for the cause of illness/disease first.  If no cause can be found, then no disease can be named or treated.   Lyme disease is one that is difficult to identify via lab tests so it is hard to diagnose.  However, there are other systems of medicine, such as homeopathy or traditional Chinese medicine, that look at the symptoms or the pattern of symptoms of a disease.  When you visit one of these specialists, you will be amazed at the questions they ask.  They will want to know what makes the symptoms better/worse, if there are disturbances in sleep, if heat/cold aggravates/soothes, etc.  Many patients are relived to be able to talk about ALL their symptoms and have them considered in the diagnostic process.  Once the symptoms are assessed, the therapist will come up with a course of treatment.  The process of healing may be slow, but many patients are responsive.  I would continue to work with your doctor, but I would seek the help of a homeopathic physician or an acupuncturist that has intensive training in Chinese herbal medicine.  Make sure any alternative therapist you consult with has the proper credentials.  To find an acupuncturist/Chinese medicine practitioner, go to http://www.nccaom.org/find.htm

So my freshman year of college is about to come to a close and I have been quite torn lately. I always felt pressured to go to college because my parents believe it is the right thing for me to do. I agree that it will get me the extra money I need to make me happy in the long run but lately all I think about doing is dropping out of college and becoming a massage therapist. I even considered this idea for a long time in high school- but it quickly became out of the question once senior year of high school hit and my parents decided my path for me. I think I would be happiest being a massage therapist but I'm not even sure how to approach my parents about it considering they heavily influence my emotions as well my career choices.

it seems to me this is your dream if you are hating college that much then you shudnt stay for any one or any thing.\nfollow your dreams they will lead you to happiness not the amount of money you earn.\n\nby the way that job has got good money prospects anyway it not like you are telling your folks you want to be garbage person. no offence to any who has that job.\n\nmy advice be straight to your parents ask their advice to include them with your desicion but make sure you make it clear this is wat you want to do.\n\ngood luck

Hi! \nWhen i am trying to open an XML file in IE, its showing up a download dialog box and then tje XML file is opening in Dreamweaver instead of IE.\n\nWhat could be the reason? Is IE not able to recognise the XML file? \n\nPlease advise.\n\nThank you\nKrishnam

XML can be displayed in IE (at least, according to this site: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_examples.asp ) so I'm guessing the problem is that Dreamweaver has nabbed the .xml extension for itself.\n\nIn any Windows Explorer window, go to Tools / Folder Options, then check the File Types tab.  Scroll down to XML and see which application it's associated with; if it's Dreamweaver, you could try changing it to IE and see if that helps.  On my computer it's set to XML Editor (which has an Office icon), if that's any help.

I think our veterans are entitled to more than a simple thanks, and paying for 3 semesters of college.

Its a difficult question at best.  As a veteran myself, it would be easy to say that I should get such-and-such because of the sacrifices that I have made on behalf of my country.  Somebody has to pay for these benefits, however, and when John  Citizen has to file taxes he's bound to think more about himself than G.I. Joe.\n\nAs a wishlist I would have to say that a guaranteed education would be #1.  The way the system works right now it turns out to be more like financial aid than a free education.  $1100 a month (GI Bill) barely pays for tuition and books, let alone living expenses.  And, in the end, having a better educated populace is better for the entire nation.\n\nI also think that a small tax break for those that have served honorably would be worthwhile.  There are already any number of tax breaks for specific groups that may or may not be rational, but I would imagine that most would be hard-pressed to argue that those that serve aren't entitled to a break (especially if they have served in a conflict).


Please point me to perspectives or points of view that estimate the likelihood of a black hole, asteroid or some other cosmic calamity turning out our lights.

in fact! our galaxy will be completely destroyed and unshaped.this will happen in some 10 million years.our galaxy will be destroyed by another galaxy; Andromeda's galaxy.this galaxy is moving towards us at about 500000km/h\nthe effect that it will have on our galaxy will be terrible.the two galaxies will "mix" together and form a new one,but all the things inside of them will be destroyed i.e;planets,comets asteroids.this is because there will be collision between the matter of the milky way and Andromeda.if you need more details please email me on xholme@yahoo.com


A worksheet is a document that you use to "work out" entries to an accounting system before posting them.  I often use Excel to generate worksheets so I can see the impact of transactions before posting them into software.


I want something christian on it like a verse or anything that goes along with christ or jesus on a wrestling singlet.

Check with something called Camp of Champs - not sure if it is still around.
