I've noticed over the years that this axiom seems to have become ignore and completely useless.  My Mother preached it to me until she was blue in the face, yet I see a growing pattern of behavior that I can only describe as "do unto others before they  do unto you" syndrome.  Anyone have any ideas why this is?  When did it become okay to say "f*ck you" to someone rather than, "Hi, have a nice day?"

Wait, that was a rule?! Ha ha, j/k with that one. \nYa know, a lot of people I know value that rule, and you know what, the people who do treat people like $#17 must also have the rule in mind, if you know what I mean. That's just opening the door to be treated like how they want to be treated. \n\nMoral here : Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and if they really hate you when the do things unto you, then do something equally bad or worse unto them. \n\nAnd if they say, "Hey, what the f***'s your problem?"\nJust smile and reply "Just treating you how you want to be treated, jxkffld." where jxkffld is your word of choice. My preference is beotch. ^_^\n\nAnd a final note: This isn't an invitation to go killing someone or anything like that because they are acting rude. I hate violence really, so keep it clean. You can make them really annoyed, make a new enemy, but keep it clean. ^_^


I am 54 and plan to retire in a few years.  My husband is already retired.  My school district does not match funds on a 403B.  What are the advantages of investing at this stage in a 403B? Is there a better way?  Perhaps Mutual Funds?

The question is would you need to start withdrawing from the 403b when you retire in a few years? While contributing to the 403b would allow you to defer taxes on the income now, you wouldn't have very long to let those savings compound and you wouldn't want to allocate your assets within the 403b very aggresively unless you are able to let the funds sit for several years after retirement.\n\nRemember, also, that you would incur penalties on any withdrawals prior to age 59 1/2 from your 403b. Additionally, many 403b programs use  Tax Sheltered Annuities as the investment chassis. These annuities may have surrender charges assessed on withdrawals during the first several years after investing. \n\nIf you do decide to go ahead with the 403b, make sure you read the prospectus and all related info, especially in regards to withdrawal charges.


I'm using a smart playlist that includes music that I have added in the past 15 days, but I don't want music to be removed from the playlist, only added.

Instead of using "Last Played .. is in the last .. 15 days", use "Last Played .. is after .. 17/12/2005" replacing 17/12/2005 with the date that you want to use (15 days from when you made the playlist, or 15 days from today).


Try checking with your local Small Business Administration office (www.sba.gov). The SBA is a wealth of information. Also try talking with (or interning with) some boutique owners in your area. They should know a thing or two about getting a successful business off of the ground. I hope this helps. :)

Need info on schools and money to pursue nursing in Albany NY area.  Need all the financial help I can get-such as grants, or hosp. that will help to pay for nursing school. Older gentlemen here- thanks

I am an "older" nursing student. Start with the federal financial aid program. Many other programs are based on their criteria. Also check out Johnson & Johnson's nursing site. It is one of the best. Three good links are below. I hope this helps.


I love Full House, if you do then tell me! My friends say i am weird because I love it so much. I just want to know if anyone else likes it so I wont feel so weird.

Yes, I do.  I must've seen all of the episodes at least 100 times each.


Basically our Avatars have one of three different hair styles, four different hats and a few differing facial expressions. Perhaps we are all more alike than we realize.

Or Yahoo invented only a miniscule number of choices for people to have when creating their Avatars.


I saw an episode of Mythbusters that covered a similiar story line but did not reflect exactley the true meaning or it's origin.

Well, when I was growing up they used to say a person was a "pistol" when they were rebellious or unique.   I guess it went from there to "son of a gun" which makes sense if you think about it.  LOL


because they are shallow i bet you are a fun an nice person but some people are raised to think they are better than every one else. i know how you feel i am alone my self its not a good feeling not to have any friends you can talk too.


Mr. Anders and Ms. Rich each drove home from a business meeting. Mr. Anders traveled east at 100 Kilometers per hour and Ms. Rich traveled west at 80 kilometers per hours. In how many hours were they 100 kilometers apart.

Heh.  Good answer, but you dropped the ball at the end when you dragged out the calculator rather than doing the division directly.  Since the answer is 100/180 of an hour, you can divide by 20/20 to get 5/9 of an hour.  One ninth of an hour is six minutes and forty seconds; multiply that by five to get 33 minutes and twenty seconds.


I had a crazy dream last night about these gigantic waves that would crash down on top of me and a bunch of people.  We thought it was totally normal, because we were sitting on bleachers.  Each time we would hold our breaths, so we didn't drown.

Water in dreams almost always symbolizes emotions. Storms in dreams typically symbolize conflicts we either currently are engaged in, or which are brewing on the horizon.


just wanting to know what a garet trooper is

It is a phrase I first read in Bill Mauldin's books. He was the most famous cartoonist in WWII and his books will give you a wonderful "grunt-level" picture of the war in Europe. The term is a combination of "garrison" and "paratrooper".\n\nThe cartoon, as I recall, had three soldiers. In the back was an unshaven soldier sitting at a table in an outdoor cafe, getting drunk. \n\nIn the foregraound was a neat, shaven soldier in a tie and a dirty, unkempt combat infantryman, obviously just back from the front lines. The neat one was explaining to the combat one, "We call them garret troopers; they're stationed too far forward to wear a tie and too far back to get shot."


Is this a tradition or is it part of security at stadiums? I just wonder because I notice this happens at the end of football games.

It's just part of security.  Drunken or rowdy fans may take out their frustrations on the coaches.


It because of craps. Some people disagree with this. New research has been done with this. You can find the new research with simple searches on Yahoo


My boyfriend tend to do this,for me not to hurt my feelings..but stil a whitelies is always a lie...I want to know things eventhough it hurts what is important it's true..But I always tell this to him but he always choose what to say from what really happened for me not to get jealous or hurt..How can I motivate him not to lie (because sometimes you will just be in the situation you will know the real story and it hurts a lot he didnt tell me all of that).what should I do to prevent this happening..? Is that also a point that he loves you that he doesnt want to see you thinking and hurt..a point of being gentleman..'m confused...please help...

no matter how small a lie is, yes you're right, its still lie! if he's doing that not only once/twice, there's something wrong with him, and dont just believe that he doesnt wanna hurt your feelings... both of you have to talk about it.


I AM SHOCKED TO HEAR ABOUT HIS DEATH FROM YAHOO MESSAGE BOARDS.

do you really think you know the true?\ndo you?\nreally?

I wish I could answer that with a Full Yes or a Full No but the thing is... I dont know! I chose to Believe in Good, and  I Chose to believe with my Heart. I know those are 2 things that have never let me down before. I wont believe everything I hear, or see because my heart, soul and spirit controls me... If its something that God himself wouldnt do or believe then nor would I.... That may sound stupid but its the best I can answer... Im sorry:(


My question is this...Why do I see the images as negative inversions instead of rounded towards you like they are supposed to be? I used to see them right, then my brain apparently did a flip-flop, and no matter how I try I can't see them right any more!

There are actually 2 ways to see Magic Eye pictures (also called random dot stereograms).  One way is with your eyes crossed and the other is with them uncrossed, but I don't remember which way gives you which image.  It's usually easier for people to do it one way over the other.  And then there's people like me who have to work really hard to do either.

just trying to cut through the media hype.

As I understand it islam states that the 'infidel' shall meet their fate at the hands of allah after death. The encouragement of violence towards them is a relatively recent thing created by extremist elements who have broken away from true islam. If islam is correct, then it is these extremists who will be judged most harshly by their god for choosing not to disbelieve, but to change the teachings of the koran to suit their own twisted desires.


I am 15 and want to get into inventing and robot design but have no clue where do get started... where do I get started? also just give me some information about the process and materials.

Hey!  Glad to hear you're interested in robots! \nSince you're just starting out, I'd recommend the BOE-Bot (Radio Shack sells it for $150) from Parallax, Inc.  I built that when I was starting and it tought me a lot of the basics.  If that is a little above your budget, I'd recommend the Build Your Own Robot Kit.  It's pretty simple to build, and it has a socket to add a Parallax (first link) BASIC Stamp II, a programmable microcontroller.\n\nI'd recommend 2 good books that should help you get started;\nRobot Building for Dummies, by Roger Arrick\nRobot Building for Beginners, by David Cook\n\nYou should also consider joining the Robotics Club of Yahoo! (second link), they can answer pretty much any question you have regarding robotics. \n\nIf you would like more info, I'd be glad to help you... just e-mail me (my e-mail is my username, at yahoo.com)

Can you tell me the information of "Phylum Bryophyta"(Biology)?

i dont know what BioGeek is talking about but as far as i know phylum bryophyta refers to mosses\n\nBryophytes used to be classified as three classes of a single phylum, Bryophyta. Modern texts, however, now assign each class to its own phylum: Mosses (Bryophyta), Liverworts (Hepatophyta), and Hornworts (Anthoceraphyta). This reflects the current taxonomic wisdom that the Liverworts and Hornworts are more primitive and only distantly related to Mosses and other plants.

librlas and conservative views on dress code in public schools

Dress codes would be good for self esteem of some students.  It would remove the provocative dress styles inspired by MTV.


Wouldnt you as an average person have more of a say in how this country is run? Arnt we all sick of lieing political leaders and only being told what we want to hear? Wouldnt you rather hear the flat out honest truth even if you didnt like it? Im not talking about the war in Iraq, or anything specifically. But wouldnt it be nice if people could be flat out honest about specific veiws, and not ever have to give the run around? I dont like beating around the bush just to save peoples feelings. and thats just the point beating around the "Bush". When our president says theres a reason for going into Iraq, I would have like to here our president say as soon as he made a mistake, "I made a mistake" not try and wiggle his way out of it for months and then say, "yeah i messed up a little" It makes me think he knew what he was wrong, or somthing. Politics should be based on Honor and respect, and not of anything else. But it is, and im sick of it.

Well, first of all don't expect honor or respect out of the past administrations that you have seen. Regardless of party affiliation, there has been covert projects going that lead me to believe that there is no direction for this country, we change every day. We can change the direction right now, all we have to do is use our minds instead of being told what to think. When is the last time that you took every 30 second blip on the news and tried to investigate all sides to every story. May be surprised on what you find out sometimes, believe in yourself, think for yourself. Live free always!

I'am looking to buy a new laptop, and I notice that some   laptops have "DVD Dual d/l", what exactly is that?, is it a DVD burnner or just ordinary DVD drive?

It is dual layer dvd, meaning you can burn 2 layers on certain types of dics and instead of fitting 4.7 gb's you can fit 9.4gb.  Pretty nice to have!


I have a lab due for a class tomorrow, and we had to do some calculations to find a one day return on the last year of stocks in Excel.

I am a youth pastor and I am just wondering about your experience with your youth group/pastor.\n\nI love my job, I love the students, just wondering about your experiences with your past or present youth group. What worked, what didn't. Maybe even an awesome event!

I had a great time as a teen going to youth group activities both at my own church and my friends' churches. I never felt like I had to do anything immoral or illegal to have a good time. I learned a lot about the Bible and my relationship with God was nurtured and strenghthened. Pairing off was never a big concern for me because I was a late bloomer and guys weren't that interested in me. \n\nThere were so many things I got to do. Hay rides with hot chocolate made by church ladies waiting when we got back. Silly camp songs. Canoing. Playing hide and seek at night. Lock-ins. Movies. I don't know. Maybe I'm just easy to please and have fun doing most anything. \n\nThe youth pastors that made a big impact on my life were kind, genuine, honest people. They lived what they taught and took their faith seriously, but knew how to have fun. Keep up the good work. It really does make a difference.


What are the main things one should look at when studying and examining the credit proposal?

There are number of things that are taken into consideration besides ratios while assessing a credit proposal .  I am specifically referring to ratios since stress has been laid on it.  If the business is already started , the trends are gathered .   In such cases , the important ratios seen are [a] Debt Equity Ratio [b] Current Ratio [c] Gross Profit Margin Ratio to name a few .   There are about 30 ratios which can be studied .   However , I have mentioned only a few .  After ratios are calculated , they are compared with other businesses who are in the same line .   Thereafter , the partners/directors' ability to run the business profitably is studied .  It is also gathered as to whether there is demand for the said product .   Finally it is also seen as to how much you are able to contribute --it is called margin .  Further security aspect is also looked into .  At the time of processing a proposal , it is not only the ratios but a number of other things that are also studied .


Astro vision is going to auch real-time sattilite photos in 2008. it just doesnt make sense, with all these sattilites in orbit(around 45000)

Almost all real-time sattilites are owned by the Military.  They don't want to share their technology with the general public.  They have a vested interest to protect their capibilities.  There hasn't been enough commercial demand for real time photos.  Plus, realtime only works when the sattelite is directly overhead.  Consumer users would have no control over what they see, or how far they zoom in, ect.

she was on probation for possession and now is revoked for non reporting and failed u.a.'s she just had 2 small babies and continues to use methamphetamines. is there a hotline or website so that someone can pick her up?

well, almost certainly you would need to call your local police or sherriff's office, if you want to report her for a crime.. or the state family services board, if you want to help the children..  but i can't tell you how to do that since i don't know where you live.\n\nsorry!  guess they're doomed to a life of hardship and despair.

LIKE HOW DO U KNOW IF HE JUST WANTS 2 HAVE SEX N THEN LEAVE U?\nWHAT IF HE ACTS LIKE HE LIKES U BUT HE WANTS 2 DO U!

These people on here dont know what the hell they talking bout. You just got to wait true enough make him wate. But on the real he aint gone believe none of that no sex till marriage stuff. This is 2006!. But on the real if all else fails get him pussy whooped and best believe youll have him. Now that's real. Na' mean?


Ok, I find it extremely annoying when you spend the time to answer peoples questions and they dont take the time to pick teh best answer...especially cause i answer mostly math questions where it does take a bit of time to explain things, people should be nice enough to award the points...also Dont you find it extremely annoying that so many questions are dumb and simple...they shouldnt really be there in the first place!

Its true. Skilled and unskilled answering is needed. Suppose a gaungue of people can paly tricks each other by asking , answering and selecting best answers. So those who are doing brainstorming jobs will not reach a level. Actually such people needed for real life solution.So its very important to scrutinze all questions and filter unnecessary questions and unnecessary answers.\nSo that genuine perfomers will get aproved.\nI too a maths and physics person, still in low ranking.Made many answers, but still least point level.\n\nThanks,\nAlex


I came home one day and it was turned off--No Notice. Not only that, they waited almost 3 weeks to turn it back on and they made me sign back with them or I'd have to pay a $200 fee.  And they wouldn't let me keep my $14.99 deal.  And I also couldn't keep my email address the same.  Can you believe that crap.

Because they are jerks....\n\nOr more likely because they have incorrect contact information for you.  You should check your email that you have on file with them to see if they sent notification.  That is their preferred way.


I was engaged with a man aged 33. He is over weight. I don't know his exact weight but he is fat so much that he has difficulty sitting down and then getting up from a couch. He can't fit comfortably on a single chair and so on. His height is approx. 5'7". I am 25 years old girl height 5'5" and weight 49 KGs. I want to know keeping both our structures in mind whether we have a health risk specially where intercourse with this man is concerned.I'm a virgin. (No experience or knowledge about sex, specially when it takes place for the first time). I want to know all possible problems in this regard. Your help will be highly appreciated. I really need it. Thanks.

Personally, I would make sure he is fit to have sex first, and by that, I mean his heart and lungs.  Sometimes sex can cause a heart attack or breathing problems.\n\nIf he is all good to go in that regard, I would say you would have no problem if you were to take the top until he loses some weight.

I tried that... 347 it took me. It was a summer day, though. Anyways, I'd ballpark it to around 300-500 licks. It depends on person to person, though.


This is a curiosity, that is all, but has bugged for the last while. If you have any ideas, I would LOVE TO KNOW! Thank you so much!

It has been suggested that the word originates from the Spanish verb hablar, which means "to talk". When hablar is conjugated to the imperfect tense, it becomes hablaba, hablabas, hablabamos, hablabais, and hablaban.\n\nIt came into practice in the early 20th Century.


Other credit cards would be transferred to this lower rate.

It depends on how much you owe at which rates, and how fast you're paying them off.  If it costs you $700 to drop 5%, you would be ahead after just a year if you owed $700 / 0.05 = $700 * 20 = $14,000.


This refers to a Hotmail login. The user name includes upper case letters and when it defaults to lower case the login fails. Is this a setting on my own computer? Or is it controlled by the provider settings?

As far as I know hotmail logins are case insensitive (eg. it doesn't matter if it is upper or lowercase). This is certainly the case for your email address. john@smith.org is the same thing as JOHN@smith.org \n\nIt is accepted practice to write email addresses (which is what you use for a hotmail login) in lower case. When you submit your password in hotmail they automatically make it lowercase. This is not a setting on your computer.\n\nAre you sure that you haven't just forgotten your password?


killing the bugs hasn't been the problem those eggs are.I just want her hair pretty and shiney again and for this problem gone for good .I know to wash everything and to spray bedding and furniture.Thanks

The problem is that you can't kill the eggs. The nits are encased in a very strong type substance that cannot be penetrated. The most important thing is to retreat the hair after 7 to 10 days and you HAVE to get all the nits out by hand or by comb.  I find those plastic combs ineffective. I ordered a metal comb called medi comb from a dealer on ebay. It works the best but you will still need to hand pick some. They are such a pain! Also using hair styling products (after hair is nit/lice free) daily helps prevent reinfestation from contant with others (at school/bus/etc.). I also flat iron/or hot iron curl her hair at times or braid it. Anything that keeps it back or helps to kill those pests! Also watch closely the friends they play with and if you see any kind of scratching check the child immediately and send them home to tell their parents if you find any nits or anything. Check over the ears and nape of the neck. Also they do make lice repellent spray that you can order (search online) it's mostly tea tree oil, eucalyptus, geranium, and other essential oils mixed with water but it could help if your child is in close proximity of other children and lice is a reoccurring problem. Prevention is the best medicine.


After kids your body is not as small as it once was.he is attracted to skinny women. and less attracted to me theese days..

I agree with CrazyC and Saleem.\n\nStill don't let your insecurity put holes in your relationship. Is he really treating you in a less interested way, or is there just more things to occupy his time and attention, like being a good dad and supporting his family.\n\nRemember self-confidence is a big attracter of men. If you think you should lose weight, then do it for yourself and for your kids, to be able to fun and play more with them, don't do it to fit some image.\n\nDo take care of you, keep your chin up and enjoy the love of your family.


1. Conservatives' claim that the media is liberally biased is based on a perception of content. Saying it's conservatively biased based on ownership, is an example of fallacious guilt by association, not a refutation. It's a red herring. \n\n2. If you cite Saddam's lack, of a connection, at least tangible, to 9/11/01 as an argument against the war, you imply that said basis must always exist to justify making any person or entity a target in the war on terrorism. While I, too, do not agree with the war, the logical consequence of complying with that argument is potentially against one's national interest. Also, I'm unaware of the war on terrorism ever being stated, as by President Bush, as singularly focused on al Qaeda. \n\n3. "Victims" don't need to exist for a law, act and exercise of power to be considered unconstitutional. That's for the Judiciary to determine, and it may do so based on how well any one of them accords with the constitution.

If you can show 5 broadcasts by the media withing the past 30 years that supported conservitives, then I will withdraw my claim.\nNote: these must be broadcast by either ABC, NBC, CBS, or CNN. FOX is moderate and occasionally supports the conservitives. Therfore FOX does not count. But I'm giving you an awful lot of room to work with, arn't I. Oh, and you weren't immensly stupid right here, you were pretty smart.


I'm searching online for Dental Hygienist programs but the only thing I'm finding is Dental Assistant programs. Is there a difference in one from the other education wise?

There is a great deal of difference between the RDA (Registered Dental Assistant) and RDH (Registerd Dental Hygenist).   The RDA helps around the office and with patients but the RDH actually works with patients, such as cleaning and X-Raying teeth.  I doubt whether a distance learning option would be workable for the RDH program, because you need to intern with a dentist.  There may be good RDA programs offered through distance learning though.  I recommend that you call a couple of local dentists and ask what training they prefer for staff, or you could try the distance learning resources at http://www.degreeinfo.com .

My deadbeat ex-boyfriend (whom I have a child with) has done nothing for my son in 4 years but he got ahold of my sons SSN and claimed him on his taxes, if I report him to the IRS, will I still be able to claim him myself afterwards?

First off if he has supported the child for 51 % of the time,  (ex. clothing, utilities, daycare, insurance, medical, dental etc.) then yes he can claim the child but only if he has supported the child for 51% also if you claim him first before he gets to file then when he goes to claim the child there will be a flag that the child has already been claimed and cannot be claimed again. And yes you can claim the child afterwards if you do report him but never let anyone else get that childs ss#. Also if this is a child between the two of you then if he gets a paternity test and establishes paternity to the child then you may have to split the filing of the child from year to year like ane year he does then you the next or maybe he will let you claim him and nothing be said but that is something that the two of you should work out. One last thing before I go I would look into this further and contact an tax and accounting agent to find out more and also contact a lawyer if you don't want to be with this man and get things rolling in your favor before this boy-friend beats you to the punch, and before you get to talk to anyone about what is going on. If he also establishes paternity then you can also get him for child support. Good luck hun and I sure hope that things go wonderful for you and that precious baby boy of yours.


It seems to me that it serves the interest of countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt or Iran to keep the Palestinians in constant state of struggle. \n\nAs long as the leaders of these other countries can deflect the anger of their demoralized populations to Palestine by claiming a common enemy (Israel), then they don't have to account for their own shortcomings as leaders. \n\nThe west spends more money in Palestine than the so called 'brother' countries do. What's up with that?

Yes they are being used but they know it.  They are as bent on the distruction of Israel and all Jews as the others.

When you just started working on a computer from standby why does it make sounds other than the fan?

Some noises are normal and some are indicators that certain hardware like the hard drive may have a scratch on it or may be on it's way out. I would suggest backing up your data that you want to keep (Windows has a Backup Wizard found in accessories) and either wait for it to go out or have it looked at by an A+ Technician. Do not take no for an answer when you ask for an A+ Technician also ask for thier CompTia A+ Card.\nJohn\nA+ Certified Professional

i have 4 important and big client, their jobs are usually demanding. my staff are not competent and i keep firing them. most times the bulk of the job is on me making my always trying to meet up with one client or the other, i also find that my clients complain about a delayed job (this part i really hate). the thing is i have checked the company's debt and ist quite much but my unexecuted jobs which are on ground takes care of the debt; delays however make me find myself in cash issues which makes me desperate. Now i know am good at what i do and i give so much time to my job but could there be something am doing wrong or is it normal. if it is normal then i can handle it knowing its expected in a business but if am doing something wrong or if theres something am not doing please advise.  i'll appreciate is mainly professinals and interpreneurs answer my question.

Sounds like you need to find better people for your staff. You need to offer compensation attractive enough to get the right people. Figure out what those delays are costing you and tack on a good percentage of that value to what you offer potential employees.

tan skin at the same time. He is just to die for. KEEP IN MIND NO ONE KNOWS THAT I AM GAY. HOWEVER----i find him looking at me every now and then. When I go to the copy room I see his eye look at me, when I am at an elevator I see him smile but not at me directly, whenever we sing happy birthday to a co-worker and I sit I see him looking at me, whenever i do anything i see him looking at me....OR IS IT THAT HE KNOWS THAT I AM LOOKING AT HIM THAT HE LOOKS AT ME....can he find me attractive anyone know---I CAN BET MY LIFE THAT HE IS STRAIGHT---I've SEEN HIM AND HIS BROTHER AT THE OFFICE TRY TO TALK TO ME BUT I COULDN'T SIMPLY BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO EXPOSE MYSELF---TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK

Please leave him alone.  He's straight and doesn't want the advances.  \nHe probably knows you're gay (we straight guys all have very sharp gaydar) and therefore the reaction is because of feeling awkward.\n\nWe do the same thing with chicks.  Check them out, they feel awkward, we take it as a mutual feeling.  It ain't so.


I have a 2002 Imac with 256 RAM. I use both Netscape and IE.

First thing is that in some instances IE and Netscape have been known not to play well with each other.  You can, if it is an option, choose one of them only and uninstall the other.  You can also try increasing the size of your internet cache, this can be done in the tools/options section of the software.  Last choice would be to increase the amount of memory your pc has, if you are out of memory, you are out of cache space and unfortunately, out of luck.  Cboy


Variablility is important in fighting epidemics.  Something that can make one individual animal sick might not make another sick, provided that other animal is unique.  Similar genes means similar genetic bases for immunity--a disease that afflicts one can afflict all.\n\nTraditional agriculture is also based on the idea of artificial selection, which improves the livestock over generations.  Cloning means no variation, which retards the idea of improving the qualities of livestock.\n\nFinally, it's pointlessly expensive.  Why get a cell biologist to transfect genes when a bull will do it for free?

Should NASA send manned flights into space

They already do. Do you mean, inter-planetary flights? And if so, how far away? Pluto? Nuh-uh. Mars? Not necessarily a bad idea. It all depends on how far away the mission crew is to be sent, and how long the duration of the journey is to be. If the crew were to find themselves in an emergency, they would of course have to be more resilient and capable of quick thinking because Houston would not be of any help to them.


My fiance is in the Air Force, and I heard that he and I can't go out of the country for our honeymoon because we are in a time of war.  Is this true and, if so, why?

Depends. It is true if he is already TDY (temporary duty to another location). It's not true if he is at his home station. He just needs to fill out a leave form and get it approved by his supervisor. Once he gets it approved he can go almost anywhere in the world he wants. Don't forget about passports and visas.

Physics is difficult....\nAs far as i can figure it is \nt=Vo/g\nbut i am not completely sure, any hints are helpful! thanks-

ive been on a beta blocker  for my heart ,going on a year! ever since ive been on this, my moods have changem im very moody, im tired, i can do things like i use too, my hair comeing out more, and ive gain alot of weight! i told my doctor, he said it will go away, but it hasnt! can anyone, in new albany,indiana, help me ,find a heart doctor?

Weight gain and depression --- oh, yes!  But it is better than being dead, so I keep trying.  KEEP talking to your doctor or ask his/her nurse.  Also, make sure you are getting your thyroid levels checked.  The problem with just going to a heart doctor is that you may have more than just heart problems.  You might also need to see an endocrinologist (they take care of thyroid and diabetes problems).  The best way to find good doctors is to ask a nurse for names---especially hospital nurses in your area.  Good luck!!


I play pogo.com through yahoo.when it loads to the final page to play either the java or applet is off i think. How do i fix it?

does this only happen with a specific game, or all of them?\nyou could try to reinstall your java applet, that could help.


The Zork games was not the first place for these creatures to appear.  Who invented them and when?

Looks like it was Jack Vance in his Dying Earth novels. "Vance probably took the name from an archaic/dialectal English verb meaning shudder, now most commonly encountered in the word 'gruesome'."

If everything comes from a source, than what is the source univerisal? Before evolution. Where did the material come from? Also is the Big Bang still the most popular theory?

Very intersting question which I or no-one else can answer with 100% certainty. I'm no expert in physics but i figure that to create the source of the 'big bang' would  require an infinite amount of matter to be squeezed into a small ball by an even more infinite amount of pressure - which would have to be equal on all sides... so where did all this matter & pressure come from???


hey this boy knows where i live and my phone number and i know it too and he knows that i like him and he always smilles to me

are you installing it as administrator? if your profile has permission, install it loggin as the person that will be using it and not the computer administrator. this will install it only on the users profile. \nif you do not have permission to intall programs as that user you'll have to change the settings to allow it.\nif you dont have a personal profile, you'll have to create that as well.\nthere is another way to do it... cant remember... i think it has to do with the instalation folder location. \ni'm pretty sure it's an option to select while installing the program as well. something like "install this program for all users" or "this program is for current profile only"\nsorry, it's been a while.

When I say 12-step programs, I mean specifically with regards to alcohol. I remember hearing somewhere that in some countries outside the U.S. (especially in Europe)that there is a widespread belief/notion that a person doesn't always have to stop drinking completely but can sometimes learn to drink in moderation.

I've heard that there are AA (Alchoholics Anonimous) support groups world-wide. I think that the notion that you refer to is also referred to in the U.S. as one form of dealing with the illness of Alchoholism.

So I got a speeding ticket and applied for deferred adjudication.  I'm not sure if its just a Texas thing or not, but basically you get put on probation for a while and the ticket doesn't go on your record. Anyways, I got a reply back saying this (and yes, it was written in all caps):\n\nIT IS THEREFORE ORDERED, AND DECREED THAT THE ENDS OF JUSTICE AND THE BEST INTEREST OF BOTH SOCIETY AND THE DEFENDANT WILL BE SERVED BY DEFERRING FURTHER PROCEEDING WITH ENTERING AN ADJUDUCATION OF GUILT, AND PLACING DEFENDANT OF PROBABTION FOR A TERM OF 90 DAYS, AND BY ASSESSING AN ADMINATRATIVE FEE AND COURT COSTS, INCLUDING THE FINE, OF $100.00.\n\nSo how much do I have to pay, $100 or $100 plus the $185 speeding ticket fine?  I'm not sure because of the way its worded.  I tried to call the county courthouse, but it was in one of those tiny backwoods towns and noone ever answers.\n\nThanks,\nMike

no, $100 + administrative fee + court cost= how much u pay.\n\n you would  probally have saved more money by just paying the ticket (185 vs. $200+


There seems likes like no jobs out there.

is it good to have a supplemental feeding program?\n\nfor my assignment..\nthAnkz^^

Supplemental feeding of deer is prohibited in Michigan, except a person may engage in the supplemental feeding of deer in Ontonagon, Houghton, Keweenaw, Baraga, Alger, Luce, and those portions of Marquette and Chippewa counties north of the T43N-T44N boundary line if all of the following conditions are met:\n\n1) Prior to placing any feed, the person first acquires permission of the respective public land administrator and private property owner and a supplemental deer     feeding permit issued by a Department wildlife biologist. A person engaged in supplemental deer feeding shall possess a copy of the supplemental deer feeding permit and shall produce the permit upon the request of a conservation officer.\n\n2) The supplemental deer feeding is conducted in compliance with all of the following criteria:\n\n(a) The placement of feed shall not begin prior to the Monday following January 1 and shall not extend beyond May 15 unless otherwise specified in the supplemental deer feeding permit.\n\n(b) All feed shall be placed ¼ mile or more from the nearest paved public highway unless otherwise specified in the supplemental deer feeding permit.\n\n(c) All feed shall be placed at least 1 mile from cattle, goats, sheep, new world camelids, bison, swine, horses, or captive cervidae unless otherwise specified in the supplemental deer feeding permit.\n\n(d) All feed shall be placed at least 1 mile from wheat fields, potato fields, commercial fruit orchards, commercial plantings of nursery stock or Christmas trees, unless otherwise specified in the supplemental deer feeding permit.\n\n(e) The feed shall consist solely of grains and pelletized food materials containing no animal protein which is scattered or dispersed directly upon the ground to a depth which shall not exceed 3 inches.\n\n3) A person issued a supplemental deer feeding permit shall agree to assist the department in the collection of deer tissue samples for disease surveillance.\n\n4) A person issued a supplemental deer feeding permit shall report by May 30 the quantity and type of feed used, dates and duration of feeding, and other information as may be specified in the supplemental feeding permit. The department shall report to the commission the number of permits issued, quantity of feed used, and other relevant supplemental deer feeding information.


This place is a hot bed of anti-immigrant sentiment, so I figure I can get a decent answer.\n\nThe State of Texas does not allow illegal immigrants to obtain Texan driver's licenses?  Why?\n\nDoes anybody think that there are Mexicans that say to themselvess "I would like to go to America to work 14 hour days.  I can entered the United States simply by swimming across the river.  But, I won't be able to get a driver's license in Texas.  Might as well stay here in Mexico."  \n\nI don't think the bar is a detterent to immigration at all.  However, it is a bar to obtaining car insurance.  Lets say that if an illegal immigrant could get a driver's license, there is a 1% that he will get car insurance.  Wouldn't it be better to have 1% of illegal immigrants to have car insurance than 0%?

Well, because there are a lot of Americans that do not like people from other places. This can be because perhaps the immigrants speak another language or don't look quite like they do.  So, these people try to make the new immigrants to this country feel as bad as possible by denying them basic rights and privileges (A driver's license.)  The government currently denies them these rights at the same time businesses take advantage of them by employing them without benefits and paying them below minimum wage.  Also, minimum wage isn't even really a "living" wage at all.  These companies cannot even do that for them because they are crooks. No one in this country should have to work 14 or 16 hour days to survive. No one should have to work without health benefits or the protection of the law.  Unfortunately, because of our current presidential administration and Congress, things probably won't change until 2009.

Why is it that nowadays people hardly ever use scripture to back up their point? Especially here on Yahoo! answers. It's like God's going to automatically agree with just their "opinion" instead of what's in His Word.

People do not use God's Word to back up their points because it would be impossible. Too often their human thoughts are diametrically opposed to God's thoughts.\n\n(2 Timothy 4:3,4) For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander into myths.

Hamster\nHamster, small mammal, common name for any of several rodents characterized by large food-carrying cheek pouches, thick fur, and a short tail. One species attains a length of about 30 cm (12 in). Hamsters live in many-chambered burrows 1 to 1.5 m (4 to 5 ft) below the surface of the ground in fields; they subsist mostly on cereal grains and may extensively damage crops. One of the chambers in the burrow is used as a storage room for grain in the summer and autumn. In winter the hamster hibernates; its sleep is not continuous and it often wakes to feed on its stores. The female bears several litters a year and may produce as many as 18 young in one litter. The young are weaned when about two or three weeks of age and shortly thereafter leave the parents and construct their own burrows. The fur of some hamsters, notably the unusually coloured, black-bellied hamster, is used for the lining of coats, and the flesh is sometimes eaten.\n\nHamsters range over Eurasia and especially over the steppes, plains, and deserts of Central Asia. Golden hamsters are widely used in medical research and kept as children's pets. Dwarf hamsters also make good pets. In 1956 it was discovered that hamsters can be infected with the common cold. This discovery is of great significance to cold-virus research, in that the hamster is the first small laboratory animal found to be susceptible to colds.\n\nScientific classification: Hamsters belong to the family Muridae. The black-bellied hamster is classified as Cricetus cricetus. Golden hamsters make up the genus Mesocricetus; dwarf hamsters, the genus Phodopus.


If they really want help with their problem, saying something like "my printer stopped working, how do I fix it?" or "how do I fix my email on my laptop?" is pretty much impossible to respond to in one shot.   So why are there so many questions like that?  I mean if people want help, don't you think they have sense to give some specifics?

Part of the problem, I think, is that they are so new to PCs, they don't know what they need to provide in terms of information.\n\nI know if I have a problem, and I can't figure it out myself (rarely), when I call tech support I am specific and to the point.

I usually only do it when I'm thinking about things, sitting in the car or watching something tense on the tube.  Casual weekends are OK, but work week stress gets it going, and always when I'm really grinding on something on my mind.  I'm a 46 yr. old W/M, college educated, and can be hyper-focused when I really need to get after it.  I work as a private investigator, and would love to not have to be self-conscious about it anymore.  Anyone with any suggestions?

Who thinks that George Bush is racist? I can't make up my mind, so I need some good strong opinions, here.

I don't know, but here is something that might help or not. In 2001 prior to 9-11 there was a conference in Africa. During this conference the African nations asked for reparations from slavery. The European delegations said no because they would not know where to begin in who  or how to pay and that they would go broke. But they did offer an apology and said that their ancestors were wrong. Bush had the Americans leave the conference at that moment refusing to apologize. Citing that America would not be forced into a corner etc.

Norway is proceeding with a plan to great a "Doomsday" seed project. \n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4605398.stm\n\nIs this just modern mans approach to a Noah's ark or is it going to mean man has an opportunity to  interfere with normal evolutionary extinctions?

I just think it's silly.  In my old city, we had a radical "save the seeds!" group.  I suppose it could be important and it won't hurt, but we're nowhere near a crisis and I doubt there would be much use for any seeds that would be saved.\n\nOh well.  At least it reminds me of Chrono Trigger.

i luv the atheist life. but ppl dont like to talk bout beliefs im all up for it i'll just give u my opinion..

I'm very happy to read most of these answers. You're on the right path and you've seen the truth. \n\nThe issue now is to be able to discuss your beliefs openly and respectfully. There's no reason that an atheist and a Christian can't have a civilized discussion, and Yahoo Answers is a perfect place to cut your teeth on these issues.\n\nTo the person who said that you are not an atheist, that you just haven't seen the truth. Well, that's exactly the kind of thing we're trying to avoid. That is disrespect. How would you feel if I said that you were not a Christian, that your head was just too clouded with myth and fear to see the truth? Hmmm. Pretty soon we would just resort to name calling and not get anywhere. You've undermined your argument quite effectively.\n\nListen to Scheb. Ask people about their beliefs and engage them with an open mind and kindness. They will say things that seem crazy. That's okay. You have to realize that your ideas seem just as crazy to them. However, through discussing these things with them, you'll both see that you are both people and the differences in belief can only come between you if you let them.\n\nNow I have some questions and some advice.\n\nFirst of all, what do you mean when you say that you luv [sic] the atheist life? Are there parties that I'm not being invited to? The atheist life, even though it comes with certain existential issues, isn't that much different than anyone else's life. We still have love, bills, good days, bad days, frustration, and everything else that accompanies the human condition. Or are you experiencing something that I'm not familiar with?\n\nAdvice: Cut out the SMS language. No one can take you seriously when you write "ppl" instead of "people," "2" instead of "to," and "u" instead of "you." It starts you off looking like a lazy kid. Don't give the other side the upper hand before you even begin a discussion. Seriously. Also, spelling and grammar count. As do capital letters. No one will take you seriously if you can't present yourself seriously.\n\nSorry if I'm a little harsh, but I'm glad to see that you've come to these hard won conclusions and I'm happy to have you around here to add your two cents.\n\nWelcome.


I've heard that there are two types of people in this world, those who love cats and those who hate them.  \n\nSo tell me what kind of person you are and why.

I have 4 cats and more on the way, so I guess I love the little stinkers. My "big boy'" name is Blue. He is a manx. My older female is Pilsner, she is a tortishell. Her and Blue had a litter together and we got Bacardi, a tuxedo manx. And then my runaway boy, whose name is Mark is just a "mutt cut" he left home when we got a dog, which we no longer have. He DOES come home on occasion and stays 2 or 3 days then runs off aain.

What are they and teh difference between 'em?

An embassy is the office of a country's diplomatic representatives in the capital city of another country. A Consulate is also a diplomatic office, but undertakes a more restricted range of duties as defined by the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. A Consulate is generally a representative of the Embassy in locales outside of the capital city. For instance, The British Embassy is in Washington, D.C., and there are British Consulates in Los Angeles, New York City, Houston, etc.


I saw a brief satirical comment about it on The Colbert Report, so I'm not really sure if there truly is any connection or if they were spoofing...

Sorry, untrue. There is no relationship.


busy work, for those of you who like math, can you fgure out if there is a number which does not go down to 1 given the following\n\nif the number is even apply the following : n/2\nif the number is odd apply the following : 3n + 1\n\nex 5\n3(5) + 1  = 16\n16/2 + 8\n8/2 = 4\n4/2 = 2\n2/2 = 1\n3(1) +1 = 4\n4/2 = 2\n2/2 = 1\nrepeats...

-1 works\n-1*3 + 1 = -2\n-2/2 = -1 (back to where we started)\n\nAddition> Now you say they should be pos! Jeez\n\n0 works though is it technically positive?\n\nWow, try a number like .1  - The numbers get REALLY big before coming back down to 1.  (5.00315450989997E+15)\n\n\n  Function IsOddNum(ByVal intNumber As Double) As Boolean\n    If (intNumber Mod 2 = 0) Then\n      Return False\n    Else\n      Return True\n    End If\n  End Function\n\n  Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click\n    Dim num As Double = Convert.ToDouble(TextBox1.Text)\n    Dim count As Integer = 0\n    Literal1.Text = num.ToString() & "
"\n    While num <> 1 And count <> 1000\n      If IsOddNum(num) Then\n        num = 3 * num + 1\n      Else\n        num = num / 2\n      End If\n      Literal1.Text &= num.ToString() & "
"\n      count += 1\n    End While\n  End Sub\n\n\nAnother Note:  I just plotted the number of iterations for the numbers between 1 and 20,000.  The graph totally shows a pattern!  (Mathematicians love patterns)\n\nAnother Note, Doh, now the numbers have to be integers?  Jeez, there goes my repeating number answer.  Are you going to keep adding rules every time I get it right? LOL


Personally, I always had a fondness for Spock, after all he was brilliant, saved his fellow man, Kirk's ass on many occasions and shunned all emotions. Isn't that exactly how we raised our sons to be? What an idol, ok besides that whole eye shadow business. Plus there is noone else that could pull off sarcasm without effort like Spock! Live long and prosper....

Data...wasn't too into himself like many of TNG...he was logical and funny without trying.  When he became more human, was interesting.  He's one you could depend on.


I've seen a number out there, by Old Navy, Northface, and Lands End but they are either 1. out of stock or 2. too expensive. I want a puffy, preferably bright-colored, coat-like vest to keep me warm for the remaining chilly months. Does anyone know where I can find one? Ideally around $20 like Old Navy's, but willing to spend more for a good quality one.

Dicks sporting goods has them on sale often. If there is one in your area.


I'm a newbie in classifier researching, and I'm focusing now in the application of Support Vector Machines for clasifying documents. I'm also using SVM for multiclassification so it could probably led me to the paralelization of SVM. At this point I'm looking for basic and advanced documentation on the subject to start a state-of-the-art on SVM (specifically on documents, multiclassification and paralelization).\nAny help will be appreciated

WhenI first saw this I almost skipped it  as I had little idea what it  all meant.\n\nBut I did some quick research and found these sites informative:\n\nhttp://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm/\nhttp://research.microsoft.com/research/pubs/view.aspx?type=Technical%20Report&id=580\n\nAnd this book:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/079237679X?v=glance\n\nGood luck with it.


what is the percentage of aids oral transmission without eyaculation

Yes - the release of ANY bodily fluid is enough to transmit the AIDS virus. Please take this very seriously if you don't want to get the disease. Look into methods of protection for oral sex - dental dams, using a condom -


I want to create a website that can track user names, store data, and do other various unique things, basically whatever my imagination can conceive.  How can I create the things I want on the site without any knowledge of html programming? Are there any companies that can help me do this?

There are a lot of companies out there who can do this thing for you.  But you may spend a good amount of money.  If you want a cheaper solution, check out the local colleges.  If they have a program there where students learn about making pages, you might be able to sneak in a project like this for little or nothin.


i want to go to a superbowl party but i'm unsure of when it is.

The Super Bowl is Sunday February 5 in Detroit.  The Seattle Seahawks are playing the Pittsburgh Steelers.


Who will win this year? my vote goes to LeBron.

Chauncey Billups.  Has everyone suddenly forgoten that the Pistons are on pace to set the single season win record?  Chauncey is the reason why.


ive only had sex with one guy and we dated for three years and we only did it four times but i feel guilty for not telling her...im almost 16...me and him broke up a while ago and i was 14 when we did it

Have your computer on this Question when she is in the room and leave to use the restroom and have her look at the screen.


Just curious, never get anything, but a card from my kids.

I have pop up blockers but it keeps on coming.\nHave to sign out each time.

Try mozilla firefox. It blocks all popups. http://www.mozilla.org/ \nScan your computer for spyware. Disable javascript in emails, because it may be some onmouseover script. If you are accessing email through POP, don't use outlook express. I prefer mozilla thunderbird.


How many domains are there?\nwhere can you find that information?\nHow can you measure that?

There is Alexa domain which do that, but it is not real 100%, because not all domains are signed up with this services.\nAs I published my own homepage, it was nummber 5 million, its means there are more than 5 millions Domains which signed up with Alexa. and there are also other domains which dont signed up with it.\nhttp://www.alexa.com


i kinda cant see in the internet any good fruit that i can use for my project . maybe you can help .

I used a mixture of strawberries and apple cider vinager when I was a teenager to combat acne.  Worked for me, but strawberries can be kind of expensive.\n\nIf you want to get better ideas, just walk down the skin care isle of your nearest grocery store.  Those products have every fruit known to man in them - lemons, papyas, mangos, avacados, apricots, apples, grapes (oh, grapeseed oil is good), etc. . .\n\nGood luck.


Ewwww. AOL. I'm sorry.  Ask one of their tech support reps in India to help you.  It won't help you, but I can't stomach helping AOL keep any revenue.  They have a horrible product and back it with even worse customer service.  AOL stinks, and I mean that on many, many levels.  (And regarding the guy's comments about that you're online, yeah you're online through AOL's commie version of a browser, aren't you?  Poor thing.)\n\nIf you have Verizon DSL, you don't even _NEED_ that thing called AOL.  And yes, that's as much of a hint as I'll give any AOL subscriber.  If only in hopes that you'll find the path away from your sick addiction to the AO-underworld.


Where is place of the lost city? is that true about It story?

There are many lost cities today that archeologists nearly discovered. For example the lost city of Shang. It is real but there is no possible sites. But what is the lost city you are explaining?


Not sure if Im asking this right, I guess thats why I need help. What are the 4 main types of biomolecules and what are their polymers and monomers. This is really confusing me. thanks

1) proteins are made of amino acids\n2)carbohydrates made of monosaccharides \n3) lipids made of fatty acids\n4) nucleic acids made of nucleotides\n\npolymers are made of monomers


A girl in my school suddenly decided one day that she wanted to be all goth. She pretends to be depressed all the time but it's clear that she's a perfectly happy person. I've seen other people do this before but what I don't understand is WHY? I know what it's like to be depressed and I'd do anything to get rid of it. And trust me, cutting yourself is NOT FUN (actually, it feels really good while you're doing it but after a while you start to feel stupid so in the end it's really not worth it.) So how come people wish they could ruin their life like this?

This is just an example of teenage expermentation.  Every teenager goes through a point where they are something they are not in search for who they really are.  I know it's fustrating to see people poseing, but it's a way for them to grow and understand the world around them.\n\nI too was very depressed as a teenager and even was hospitalized.  Somehow people around you don't understand that it is a deep seeded problem, not just a fad or a phase.  Ignore those who don't give you any respect and understand that you will eventually start feeling better, although you may have to change your life to do so.

If i can how much earned income is that with 3 children?

The Earned Income Credit will depend on your income.  You must file as Married Filing Jointly to get the Earned Income Credit if you live with your spouse.  Even if your spouse does not make enough income that they are required to file income taxes it will be an advantage for your family rather than passing up the Earned Income Credit.


I want to contact them with thier permission, What do you think, tel me some other ways to promote my website

You have a Catch 22.  You want to e-mail an advertisement so people will learn about you; but, you only want to send it to people who have already agreed to receive it.\nAnswer: impossible.\n\nSolution: find another way to have them learn about you.  Pay Yahoo (or someone else) to run your banner across it's top.  Team with another webmaster, so you run his banners, and he runs yours.  Or, use word of mouth...slower, but it works.\nOnce they visit, have a privacy agreement that allows for promotional e-mail (and give them the option to turn this off).\n\nHope it helps!


I recently noticed how many skiers use poles...including my own dad. I even see the occasional five- or six-year-old with them! What's the point of ski poles?

Ski poles are usually used as a timing tool when linking turns. They also are good when on a flat surface for both propelling you forward and for stoping or holding on a slight incline where there is no room to turn ie. liftline. If they had no use then racers who have lots at stake would not use them. Also they can help you get leverage to get up after a fall


After putting out two fantastic studio albums, Clandestino and Esperanza, he seems to have disappeared.  I heard he was doing soundtracks but I'm not sure.

Manu Chao (born June 21, 1961 in Paris; real name Jose-Manuel Thomas Arthur Chao; also occasionally credited as Oscar Tramor) is a French Latin folk singer of Spanish origin.\n\nChao's parents were Spanish - or to be more precise, his mother is Basque and his father, writer Ramón Chao, is Galician from A Coruña-, but moved to Paris to escape Francisco Franco's dictatorship (which lasted until the dictator's death in 1975). Manu Chao thus spent his childhood near Paris.\n\nManu Chao was a well-known member of the Parisian alternative music scene, in bands such as the Hot Pants and Los Carayos. In 1987, Chao, his brother Antoine Chao and their cousin Santiago Casariego founded the band Mano Negra. Mano Negra met with success in France first with the hit single Mala vida, then toured South America. The band split circa 1995.\n\nHe sings in French, Spanish, Arabic, Galician, Portuguese, English, and Wolof, often mixing them in the same song. He is one of the world's largest selling artists, but is less well-known in the English-speaking world.\n\nHis music has many influences: rock, French chanson, Spanish-American Salsa, Reggae, Ska and Algerian raï. These influences were obtained from immigrants in France, his Iberian relations, and foremost his travels in Mesoamerica as a wandering nomad following the disbanding of Mano Negra. Many of Chao's lyrics are about love, living in ghettos and immigration, and often carry a left-wing message. He has many followers among the European left and the anti-globalization movement, though some resent his being part of the music establishment


I've been seeing this guy for 1 and a half years.  I just found out about his girlfriend of four years.  So now what do I do?  I got him to confess everything bout her...EVERYTHING. He feels free to talk bout her and it kinda bothers me. And he stills treats me as if nothing has happened.  So should I keep talking to him or leave him alone? I really like him and we have a good time when we're together and he always complains bout her.  So is he complaining bout her b/c he knows I dont like it or is he really tired with her?

Leave him alone! If he was tired of his girl of 4 yrs. he would not be with her. He's only complaining to you so you'll believe you have his heart. Don't be a fool.\n\nAren't you good enough to have someone who will only have you? I'm like this: If I can be faithful and true so can the man. Forget that half of man crap. No one wants a half a man. If you're WHOLE then you need a WHOLE man. Are you half or whole?\n\nStop settling!


wut is the preferred size breasts that guys like- big or small, A cup or DD's? specifics please

I've enjoyed a variety of women, from an F-sized cup (didn't know they went that far!) to smaller than an A-cup. Loved 'em all. Amazing how much better your sex life becomes when you pay your greatest attention to the woman those breasts are attached to.


For example, I was in the UK over Christmas in a small town called Minehead in Somerset and the local "Bobbie" was amazingly friendly and helpful.  But in the same sized town here in the US you find a gruff and hardened "cop" that wants nothing better than to slap you in handcuffs.\n\nWhat's with that?  Surely people in the employ of the community should act the same no matter where!


What is the one most important crisis that the credit imposes?

You only have to worry about a crisis if you spend more than you can pay off. You should use the card like cash, if you dont have the money; dont use it. But it is a good tool if you know that you WILL have the money. Then you can use it and pay the bill when you get it. The biggest problem people have with credit is not realizing that if they pay the amount in FULL each month you will accumulate NO INTEREST. But if you only pay the minumum amount and let the balance float the you will be floating it for as much as 20 PERCENT of the balance. My advice is to use it two or three times a month and ALWAYS pay the TOTAL amount due.


I am trying to think of the legal term for someone who should be found guilty, but walks. Not Hung Jury, not mis-trial...help me out with some words...

Maybe it's Innocent.\nOr try these other legal terms to help:\n\nPlea: An accused persons answer to a criminal charge. For example: not guilty; guilty; no contest.\n\nAcquittal: Judgement that a criminal defendant has not been proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.\n\nNolo contendere: No contest-has the same effect as a\nplea of guilty, as far as the criminal sentence is concerned, but may not be considered as an admission of guilt for any other purpose.\n\nHope it helps!

he's one of the richest arabs there is. and his family is one of the richest in the world. sadly though, he's a muslim extremist as well and now waging an all out war through terrorism against the world actually, but mainly the united states and its main allies like UK... He leads this group, the AL Qaeda, which is the world's no. 1 terrorist group and they are also credited for the September 11 World Trade bombings. Up until now he's still hiding and remarkably, cannot be found by the US. and is unimpeded in his terroristic acts.


"There is nothing new in the world except the history you have not learned."

There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know. — Harry Truman\n\nThis is the correct quote. It was in a interview with William Hillman.\n\nJournalist and news commentator; editor of Mr. President (1952); assistant to Harry S. Truman in various writing projects, including Truman's Memoirs (1955-56) and Mr. Citizen (1960). \n\nThe papers of William Hillman mostly document his association with Harry S. Truman and his work as editor and assistant to Mr. Truman in the writing and publication of Mr. President (1952), Memoirs (1955-56), Mr. Citizen (1960), and a number of syndicated newspaper and magazine articles. The collection also contains materials relating to proposed publishing and television projects involving the former President, and Hillman's role as Truman's literary agent and adviser. Also documented is Truman's work, with the assistance of Hillman and David Noyes, on a history of the U.S. Presidency that was never finished. The papers include manuscript drafts in various stages of completion, interview transcripts, research materials, correspondence, handwritten notes, printed materials, press releases, and other items.

I think you need to let her down easy.  Tell her you appreciate the time you've had together, but this is just not what you want right now.  You have things on your mind and need to be alone.  Once you break it off, stick to it and don't give her any false hope.  Once you break it off, YOU CANNOT SLEEP WITH HER...if she's crazy, you'll regret it big time.


Even though the US uses M-16s, everyone else uses AKs. Why?

M16/AR15\n\n   The first M16s had all kinds of problems, most of which have been resolved. The remaining problems mainly amount to jamming due to dust or sand during long periods in the field. Since civilians almost never spend weeks in the field, a civilian owner will almost never see one of those problems. The M16 is different from other military rifles in the following respects:\n\nThe 223 ammunition it uses. The rifle has enough power to kill humans or deer if not bears and cape buffalo, is accurate out to several hundred yards and, with heavy (75 - 95 grain) bullets and quick-twist barrels, can shoot to 800 - 1000 yards. It is accurate and allows rapid, well-aimed fire. \nThe M16 does not use a piston; gas blows back through a very small tube straight onto the bolt carrier. This eliminates the movement of the piston inside the rifle increases accuracy. \nThe bolt locks into the barrel rather than the receiver, simplifying several kinds of things, not the least of which is cleaning. \nThe lower receiver with the serial number totally detaches from the upper receiver and barrel, meaning that somebody who owns one lower piece of an AR16 / M16 can buy several differrent uppers, cheaply and with no further legal requirements. \nThe barrel-upper receiver connection does not involve high torque as with some other military rifles. This makes M16s basically easy to work on. \n\n"the M16 is by far the more superior weapon. It's lighter, more accurate, more versatile, and with proper maintenance it is very reliable. Indeed, it might be less sand proof then the Galil/AK47 series. However, all you need is to clean it once a day and it will work properly. Since modern armies clean their smallarms on a daily even during combat deployment this is a non-issue. \n\n   In fact, most of the myth regarding the M16 unreliability date back to the Vietnam War when the M16 was first issued. The 5.56 ammunition given then to the troops used a low quality sticky powder that caused massive buildup of dirt in the M16 mechanism and eventually to jamming problems. When the ammunition was changed, the misfire problems disappeared as well."\n\nAK-47 and Variants \n\n   The basic Kalashnikov rifle, the AK47 and variants, is the other common true assault rifle. It uses a minimalistic 30 caliber cartridge (7.62x39) and is meant to be easy to manufacture and maintain. Actually hitting anything with one much past 100 yards is problematical. \n\n   The Vepr is Michael Kalashnikov's ultimate civilian firearm. Made with Steyr tools, it amounts to a medium-heavy, chrome-lined and hammer forged barrel mated to a RPK (squad light machinegun) receiver which, while stamped, is the strongest stamped receiver ever made. The Vepr comes in 223, 7.62x39 (AK caliber), and 308, is stone totally reliable under almost any imaginable circumstances, and is accurate enough to produce inch or inch and a half groups at 100 yards.\n \n"All Russian and Eastern Block semiauto military rifles work pretty much the same way and are similar in their mechanisms, with just a few exceptions. The most basic criteria for an AK if I had to have one for some reason would be that it cost no more than $250, tops. The idea of paying $500 for a Bulgarian AK with a forged receiver makes no sense to me at all. One other thing which makes no sense to me at all is wanting to own the very bottom end of all Russian rifles, i.e. the SKS. The SKS was made to be so simple to manufacture that anybody with a lathe could make one, and that's about all there is to recommend it. " \n\nThe US switched to 223 caliber rifles during the Vietnam war; the M16 and civilian variants of it are the closest thing there is to a real assault rifle which is also a believable rifle and can hit things at significant distances. In particular, in a gunfight at 500 yards between a guy with an M16 and a guy with an AK47, the guy with the AK would most often be SOL.


MARIAH CAREY! I have loved her from when she first came out in 1990.I know ALL her songs by heart and have over 10,000 pictures and articles on her.I have always been "Obsessed" with her and just this past new years I went and saw her perform in Times Square.It was the very first time I've seen her live and was one of the top 3 best days of my life!


I just had this puter completely formatted, hard disc cleaned and the whole computer refurbished and still, for 6 years running, all the settings just drop out/disappear and it should be operating without any problems and also outlook express has never sent or received any emails even after I downloaded the FIX from Microsoft.....Think I'll buy a DELL, dude! American Micro Devices is the puter I have and have written the company in Santa Clara, California and they have never responded, guess they know what a piece of JUNK their computers are!! Unhappy Jim...GRRRR !!!!

AMD does not make computers but rather CPU's, memory and other chips. They do not know anything about your computer.\n\nIf the system is 6 years old I will assume it is Windows 98 which is no longer supported by MS. It appears you are talking about your dialup settings are not saving which is certianly not typical.\n\nPlease follow up with some more info and if possible I will try to help plus I can try to remote assist you as well.


is it wrong if I hang out more with my best (guy) friend then my own Bf whom I love

Sorry.  I think you might be using the word Love here just a little too loosely.  Is the only difference between these guys is you are having sex with one and not the other?  Or that you have a sexual attraction toward one and not the other?\nYou would not be asking this question if you have had many very close relationships with members of the opposite sex.  If that was the case, then you would have already dealt with a situation like this before.\nIt should make no difference to either of these guys how much time you spend with the other, Unless you have told one or both that they have an exclusive relationship with you.  It is not wrong for you to spend most of your time with a male whom you have a close friendship, but are not dating or do not have any romantic attachment.


Why should we perform the "Safely Remove Hardware" routine for USB hardware? If a thumb drive has no moving parts, can it be damaged if it is removed from the USB port without "Ejecting"? Or does it damage the system?

For data execution between devices (ie. when transferring data, in this case--CPU system and USB drive), there maybe certain delay or lag time for the device to act on the command given by the user. So, when you are saving or moving files to/from the usb drive, it writes or reads data and exchanging information in between devices. If while executing data, the usb drive is removed, the data transferred out/in or is being read, may become corrupted .\nNot only on the data corruption, the device's normal hardware operation is also distrupted. \n(just like when you are writing on a piece of paper and suddenly someone snatches that piece of paper---your written words/sentence maybe unreadable and may risk tearing the paper apart)\n\nYes, Thumbdrive has no moving parts and it works on static charges from electricity (well, what do you think of repeatedly switching on and off the light? No moving parts,...?? The bulb will die faster than one with normal usage.) \n\nWindows have this feature of "Safely Remove Hardware". This ensures that the usb drive is inactive (by deactivating the usb drive/port instantly or after any currently data execution is completed) before it can be removed.

Wanting to find a filter for the PC to filter out pornography material. Younger children use the internet here and I want to keep it away from them.

the Microsoft Internet Explorer content filter works well.\ntools>internet options>content tab>enable the "content adviser and change the settings to your desired effect. A window will pop up asking for the password when you try to view a bad site, in case it's you looking. depending on where you have the settings, it does go a little overboard (i.e. homestarrunner.com), so be prepared to check sites they wish to view and take the off the list if necessary(by hitting allow on the password popup)


i like to find me a good,sweet,romantic,outgoing lady where is and how can i find one to move in with me

the people at eharmony need to hire me b/c i keep advertising for them. go to their website if you want a serious relationship.


To me it looked like it was and i just wanted other peoples opinions. Go to Yahoo Movies and look at the trailer and clips.

I don't know, but will watch it to find out!\nPart 1 was great 2 was ok so I'm hoping 3 will be better than 2, but that hardly ever happens...


I think there is a lot of you, who is writing Philly off. Why is that? They was in Super Bowl last year.

Philly is in bad shape. TO is gone, McNabb has been criticized too many times; I'm not sure how many people except Philly fans are writing off Philly.\n\nIf they get a reliable wideout and Reid stabilizes that offense, they could be back to the playoffs next year.


In one case, I applied for the same position both by mail and online. Never heard from them!

An employer is NOT obligated to interview you.  An employer may get hundreds of applications for the same position.  Their job is to fill the position quickly and efficiently with the best qualified candidate.  The reason for applications/resumes is to thin down the applicant pool, so they only interview a few of the best candidates.\n\nBeing told the job is yours is not the same as a job offer.  Now, I think an employer who would say that probably needs a course in manners, but until you get a formal offer, the job is NOT yours.\n\nYou might have a friend, or even an employment agency, review your resume or apps that you have filled out.  There may be some red flags you're not aware of.


have had 3 welding classes and want to find work herein phx, az. what do i need to do?

You are going to need to pass an x-ray test in which ever proceadure(s) you choose.  If the company that you are interviewing for is interested in you 9 out of 10 they will pay for it.  If not, you will need to get it done on your own which sucks.  X-rays cost $3000.00 bucks!  After you are cirtafied, you will never need to wory about that again.  Good welders always have work (and money!!).  One more down side is, your gonna need some basic tools which arnt cheep but, can be in news papers and E-bay.\nSome good places to try in your area are,\nAMSEC/ SAIC and IW union.  Both places pay well and have great benifits and training.\nFYI to know about the welding feild is don't talk unless you know what your talking about 100%, be motivated to work and considder traveling (much more $).  Try those places and if you need any more help, don't hesitate, I don't mind.  Good luck and burn some rod!!


Few months ago my aunt died. She was admitted in hospital for fluid in lungs, and she was there for few days, one day she had a chest pain, and she struggled and went silent… then the doctors emergency unit came and they applied the electric shock treatment on her chest and she woke up….. that evening she was ok, and she told she had the chest pain and after some time she saw her body, and all of us in the room from some other corner of that room…. She was telling she read similar article on a Readers digest and article “Life after death” and she said experienced it. And unfortunately, she had the same cardiac arrest next day and died. Please tell me what is this? And any others know or experienced like this???

She had an OBE: Out of Body Experience. It happens a lot more often than people are aware of because so many cases are dismissed as hallucinations.


They might. It depends on the school you choose, the programs avaiable, your academic qualification...or even other types of qualifications. You need to check with the Computer Science or Engineering department of the school you are considering, as well as checking with Admissions, AND looking for outside sources. Work study is almost always available in US universities. I can't speak for outside the US.
