i have discovered that the state of mississippi has the sheriffs offices inforcing registration of sex offenders & they do not seem to worry about checking on files that are from before megans law was enacted there is no grand father law about it. So my question is this . Why do some states seem to not wish to comply with thier own laws? Why bother to enact a law for public safety that the state will not really enforce? Why will the states not put in place an agency for public safety that does not over burden the allready overburdened sheriffs offices?

If you committed a crime before a law was passed then the new law does not affect you. If you were going 75 in a 55 4 years ago and got a ticket, and since then they raise the speed limit to 75, you can't go ask for a refund. \n\nAs far as the sex offender that may or may not have registered when they moved. The police have to prove that this man is indeed a sex offender. They can't falsely accuse him. Lots of people resemble each other or have the same name. Just because someone calls the police and tells them does not give the police any means to come arrest someone because somebody gave them a "tip." \n\nThey would have to match this man's social security number, fingerprints or dna to make sure he is indeed the man. But they are not allowed to force the man into giving them any of this information. \n\nPoliticians pass laws to give the public a false sense of security.  But the laws do no good if the law enforcement decides not to enforce them. This is why we elect our sheriffs, so we can have a sheriff that agrees with us on what should be priority .


He thinks I am a lesbian and I have given him my phone number, but he has not called me or text me since a week ago when I gave him my number. What else should I do? How do I express to him that I am bi- and I date both genders? I work with him, so doing all this is not all that easy....

Go to him and say "Let's have sex, How's friday for you?" I think that will work wonders. Just kidding, the only way is to ask him out for coffee or some thing and see how things are with him then if he asks for another date that's cool if not ask him out. if all else fails you can always say, "Let's have sex..."


You know when someone wants something too fast and you're like, Whoa or Patience Kemusabi? <-- Is that the right saying? Is that the right spelling? Who IS Kemusabi?

It's actually spelled "kemosabe".  It was a made-up Indian (native American) word from the Lone Ranger radio serial.  It was used by Tonto (the Ranger's Indian guide) to refer to him - it meant, roughly, "trusted friend", or something similar.


In reference to other life-forms, both microscopic and not.  It seems that people are not questioning the use of Anti-bacterial chemicals of all sorts.  Some of these are damaging the ecosystem.  Some of these are very nasty.\nMicrobes, bugs, wildlife of all kinds and being presented as “the bad guys.”  Have things gotten out of hand?  Are people being duped into spending money for products that do not seem to really keep them healthier?

Frankly, yes. At least as far as anti-bacterial soaps and such.\nI think most people would be shocked (and grossed out) if they were to be made aware that microscopic bugs live on their skin. Completely harmless.\nAnd the only thing all these products are accomplishing, is to make the organisms more resistant. Everything adapts over time. That's why there are so few effective antibiotics these days. And indeed, bacteria is quickly becoming resistant to those as well.\nAs far as bugs and wildlife....some bugs are beneficial and very much needed, while others cause disease. And should be controlled.\nWildlife? Most people have been raised in the city. But the cities are encrouching into the countryside, where, of course, the wildlife live.\nAnd since they have no experience with animals, outside of a zoo, it scares the h--- out of some people. They don't know what to do if they encounter an animal, and rather than learn, they want them gone.

I will be graduating this year from Northwestern University with an MA in Literature. I'm hoping that I'll be able to land a job that pays well, but don't know where to look. I'd like to write, but not necessarily a novel or anything. Just looking for something interesting that pays well, has good benefits. I'd also like to teach. I just need some ideas, preferably if you have an MA in Lit and can tell me what your job is like.

I have an M.A. in Litt, and I work for an e-learning firm as an Instructional Designer. It's kinda like being a teacher - only, you create content for courses that go online, and you never meet your students! It pays all right - I'm happy!\n\nI think there are many jobs out there for M.A. Litt people! As long as you don't confine yourself to thinking there's only so much you can do, the possibilities are limitless! Good luck!

H1B is really not international nor is covered, it was made by a country. See Ronald Reagan.\n If you plan to travel to another county within the USA, especially another state your Drivers License is not recognized, the reason why transfer of records to the county DMV office is done. Even military ID. The USA does recognize American passports as temporary drivers license, identification across the state of Virginia (JFK), and Southern California (Marilyn M.)\n The traveller needs to call the nearest embassy of destination, including stop overs (one visa per city/state). Passengers staying on board the carriage to the destination, must be guarded (the local tourist attraction again).\nWhat is recognized in Europe is the regular passport from Napoleonic Times, this is the original one reserved for inter-city travel (Holy Catholic Church and Servanti). Back then horse travel was like the plane.

a particle is moved along the x-axis by a force that measures 10/(1+x)^2 pounds at a point x feet from the origin. find the work done in moving the particle from the origin to a distance of 9 feet.\n\nI need some help! I can't figure out how to start problems like this! once they are set up, I can solve them. \nthis is for my calculus class--it has a lot to do with physics, which I haven't taken yet, so I am lost.\nHow do I set this up?

Since the force varies with x, you need to get the definite integral of force*dx over the span 0 to 9.  Visit the web site http://www.compute.uwlax.edu/calc/? and set the problem up there.  That will show you the integral is -10/(1+x) plus some (unknown) constant.  The definite integral is the difference between the integrals evaluated at 0 and 9, so the constant goes away.  The integral at 0 is -10, and at 9 is -1, so the energy is the difference, or 9 ft-lb.


The eye and the pyramid shown on the reverse side of the one-dollar bill are in the Great Seal of the United States. The Great Seal was first used on the reverse of the one-dollar Federal Reserve note in 1935. The Department of State is the official keeper of the Seal. They believe that the most accurate explanation of a pyramid on the Great Seal is that it symbolizes strength and durability. The unfinished pyramid means that the United States will always grow, improve and build. In addition, the "All-Seeing Eye" located above the pyramid suggests the importance of divine guidance in favor of the American cause. The inscription ANNUIT COEPTIS translates as "He (God) has favored our undertakings," and refers to the many instances of Divine Providence during our Government's formation. In addition, the inscription NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM translates as "A new order of the ages," and signifies a new American era.

I believe in God and the Bible. i just don't see how it is possible to believe in God and not believe in His Word because the Bible itself claims to be "given by the inspiration of God" and He inspired every word of it, not just the thoughts or ideas! You just can't do it! I want some input even if you believe the way i do. You can't change the way i believe so don't even try!!! God Bless and read the Bible <because its ALL TRUE, every word of it>!!!!

Amen! If you think the Bible is false, you would be calling Him a liar. If you think it's written just by men, you are calling God a liar. How could you believe in a God that would lie? You wouldn't. So no, you cannot believe God and not the Bible. Without the Bible how would you know God? God Bless!

I havent been studying politics but i think: Bureauracracy is about the way an organistion conducts its operations through different departments and agencies by usings it's strict rules to controle the operation. The disadvantage of bureaucracy is time consuming, somtime the officials ends up with wrong results due to its compexity. The advantages of bureacracy is everyone knows what to do and its often used on the military types of organisations. US government can be a good example.


I'll provide some details but not my opinion. The community I live in is deeply divided over this issue and I think the YA community debate will be just as lively.\n\nThe teacher in question has taught at the school for over 20 years and is still teaching classes while the school board reviews the case. She'd recently begun running a dog breeding business out of her home and over the past year some neighbours complained about the dogs being mistreated. Despite repeated complaints, animal control officers refused to come out and inspect the home until a dog carcass was discovered on the property. Armed with a search warrant, they entered the house and found 28 dogs which were severely malnourished and living in filthy conditions (they were all locked in tiny cages). Animal control removed the animals and the teacher was arrested and charged with 32 misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty. Many parents and students have begun a campaign to have her fired from her job. Should she be fired?

Anyone showing such disregard to the well being of helpless animals, would make me question their fitness to supervise and look out for the well being of my children. I think she should at least be put on some kind of leave and encouraged to undergo a thorough physical and mental evaluation. \n\nThere is a possibilty that she may have a physical or mental condition that is impairing her judgement.


I was wondering where the name Aarika originated from? I have seen a lot of names spelled that way lately.

It probably is a different form of the name 'Erika.' Someone probably spelled it 'Aarika' to be different, and it caught on. A lot of names are like that. :)

I am a former nurse with excellent yearly job reviews. I am good at what I do and I care about my patients. I have always tried to keep up to date with the current nursing trends and am always interested in improving myself.I resigned my position a couple of years ago because I was tired of the commute and wanted to find something closer to home. Apparently this didn't sit too well with my employer. Since I left, my employer who used to give me glowing reports and excellent job reviews has been saying neutral and/or negative things to prospective employers. I am very distressed. I have not been able to get a job in any field because of this. This employer was my only employer for 20 years and I can't understand why he would do this to me. He won't return my calls. I really don't want to sue him for slander, I just want a job. I feel as if I have lost a child. My nursing career was my life and I had no idea I would lose it just because I decided to seek employment elsewhere. Any ideas?

I would address it up front. Be honest with your interviewer that your old boss was not too happy when you left and you would prefer if they did not contact him for that reason. Maybe you can ask someone else where you worked to speak to the interviewer. Someone of authority who knows your situation.


I want to move to Canada and become a citizen, but I don't want to lose citizenship of the US.  Can you be a citizen of two countries?  If i have a child while living in Canada what will they be? US or Canadian?  If i do move to Canada what can i expect to change?  Will i still be able to watch American TV like MTV, NBC, and reruns of Friends?  Will i have to listen to Canadian artists?  Are they any good?  Will i never see Kelly Clarkson, Beyonce, Usher, and Maroon 5?  Am i going to like it in Canada?

You make that question sound like as if Canada is an issolated country. Ok, if you have a child in Canada, it will be a Canadian citizen, but if you were to move back in to the U.S it wouldn't be a problem I assume. Yes, you can have dual citizenship here, and as for American T.V....what else is there? It's all Americanized here too. That's what digital cable is for. No you won't have to listen to Canadian artists (they suck). Whether you like it in Canada or not, is totally up to you, that's something you'll have to decide when you've been there for a while...I'll tell you though, it's cold as f**k here, in the winter of course, summers are exceptional.

A social security number is an identification that marks you as part of social security...aka welfare.\nThis is NOT intended to be a national identification...even though it has become such.  So much is dependent on your SSN (social security number), that without it, you may as well not exist in the USA.\nThat is changing, though.  Companies are not allowed to ask for you SSN without approval by the US Government.  Credit Cards CANNOT require it for your use.\n\nI hope this helps.

I know men are supposed to take their hats off during prayer, but are women?  I know in my church ladies can wear hats 'cause it goes with their ensemble, but my church is pretty old fashioned. I always feel awkward doing that anyway...\n\nMy school is a Christian school and they have prayer before each class and some days I wear hats, but I never look around to see if any other women are wearing hats or not during prayer.  So, basically, I have no clue what the proper thing to do is.\n\nAnyone know the answer?

Gosh! It has nothing to do with that. This is the third time someone has asked that question. Just pray for Goodness sake! Pray naked if you want to, just as long as your sincere in your heart just pray, standing, sitting, hats on or off, it doesn't matter! I prayed while I was sitting on the toilet once and God still answered the pray. He isn't worried about all of our crazy thinking! And I am a christian, but I'm frustrated with all of this religious stuff! No wonder people don't want to come to church, they think the church is CONFUSED!

Don't be confused. Your laptop has sure a monitor output and a tv output. This second monitor you see installed is \nused when you connect a second monitor or TV . Go to advanced settings and select your graphic driver. Then try to adjust your graphic propotites.

I am a substitute teacher and I think learning spanish will be a helpful tool for a permanent job at the school.

I learned a good deal of Spanish, just living in California, and working with mostly hispanics.  I think the best way to learn Spanish is to be around nothing but Spanish-speaking natives.  You would learn Spanish the fastest, by studying a Spanish book (from your schools library or Spanish class) and taking a 6 month vacation to a non-tourist area of Mexico, and just try to make some friends.  This may not be practical, but you would learn the dilects and 'figures of speech' etc. that cannot be taught in a textbook.

Then reboot, set up new partitions and install another OS after formatting it appropriately.  CAUTION:  You will lose all data and OS files on the hard drive.  A complete reinstall of the OS will be necessary and all data and applications are wiped.


I am doing a Biblical Ethics research paper on Homosexuality.  I'm just curious about gay churches.  I have also heard of gay reform synagogues.  What I am wondering is why there would be a separate church specifically for gay people.  What is different about these places of worship from a regular church/synagogue?  Are there many Christian denominations which have a "gay church" or is a "gay church" generally non-denominational?  \nIs it encouraged at these churches/synagogues to have only one partner?  Are there marriage services, or any kind of symbolic union of couples like marriage?  Do straight people attend?\n\nTell me what you know.  If you have sources, I'd be very grateful!

This is a biology experiment and I'm trying to write a lab report that due tomorrow. Please help if you can in any way. I'm stuck on writing a conclusion and analysis for this question.

Dialysis tubing is tubing with a semi-permeable exterior, thus allowing the osmosis of small molecules, such as water, through its wall, while preventing larger molecules such as starch and proteins from passing through. It is used as a filter for dialysis.\nTypically a solution of several types of molecules is placed into a semipermeable dialysis bag, such as a cellulose membrane with pores, and the bag is sealed. The sealed dialysis bag is placed in a container of a different solution, or pure water. Molecules small enough to pass through the tubing (often water, salts and other small molecules) tend to move into or out of the dialysis bag, in the direction of decreasing concentration. Larger molecules (often proteins, or polysaccharides) that have dimensions significantly greater than the pore diameter are retained inside the dialysis bag.


I would like opinions on the best military sidearm (pistol) and rifle.  Please include caliber, country of origin of the weapon and your reasons for which you think is best.

The pistol of choice is the US Colt M1911 .45 cal. Good close range, lots of stopping power. The rifle would be between (@ close range) a AK-47, Russian, 7.65x59mm and a US M16 Colt 5.56mm.  For long range it would be a browning .50 cal machine gun. US made.

What the above guys are talking about is valence, as far as I know there are no nitrogen ions, an ion is a charged particle, that has completely taken or given up electrons but DOES NOT share them, for example the chloride ion. However all of the nitrogen compounds I know (and I must accept I don't know it all) share their electrons


I settled a case because my lawyer convinced me to. It turns out that, if I would have took this case to court I would have won millions of dollars. I know this because a similiar case went to court a few months after mine and he won millions, so I want to knoe the chances of me reopening my case.

No! The case has been SETTLED. What you can do is try to sue your lawyer for negligence or something to that effect. :)\n\nGood Luck

In the first year-end of the life of a tree, it has a height of 1m, if each year the height increases by half the height it increases the year before, how tall it is after 10 000yrs (assuming that the lifespan of the tree is infinite)

If you use the concept of limits in calculus, the idea is that the function approaches 2, but never quite reaches it.\nUsing the concept of geometric progression, and a common ratio of  1/2, the increase in height at the end of 10 000 years will be [1  - (1/2 to the 10 000th power, i.e. myltiply 1/2 by itself 10 000 times)]m .  Add THAT to the original 1 m to give almost 2 m.

alot of sliver dimes. wheat pennys,kenny half dollars,and other coins. i dont know dates on all i know pennys are cooper.

I'd take them to a coin shop.  Certainly you can sell the silver dimes and kennedy halves made of silver (1964-69).  They will weigh them and pay you for their weight.  They might browse through the wheats and you other coins for good dates, too.  \n\nIf you're looking for what they are really worth, check them out on ebay, just type in the year and type of coin, like "1969 kennedy half", and about 50 of them will pop up.\n\ngood luck!

to be a good programmer,do we have to learn the physics ?\nis it necessary  to be good at science(biology,math...),\nif i want to be a a excellent programmer?

To be a good programmer what you need most is a craetive mind.\nThis is must. And good ability to solve problem, and symplify a complex problem in several small part. The later ability means you have to be good at mathmetics.\nIf you want to be a web programmer creativity is more important while if you want to built complex software your mathmetical ability( not knowledge) is more important.

My friend is my age and she is meeting older men on the internet and "dating" them. She dosn't know who they are and where they came from but she still says I love you to them. How can I talk her out of it?

If she's so into it, the only way she'd learn the lesson is sadly by getting hurt. Try talking to her, but she'll probably keep doing it anyway.. I've met so many older men online and most of them were either married and wouldn't say, or just idiots. I had a very painful experience with an older man who I was only friends with at first.. In my case, I wasn't even planning to get romantic but when we did, it ended up bad. \nWarn her as much as you can, but getting hurt might be her way to learn. If and when something like that happens, be there for her, and no "see? i told you". Don't let her go meet anyone alone, always ask to join her for safety. goodluck and all the best.


Upon death, my father's remains may go to medical school to help further research. However, I asked him if I would be able to keep his skull (which may seem a bit macabre to some) and he has no problem with it. \n\nHowever, the question would be, who would I see about this and what are the chances I can find an embalmer or someone else that could uphold those wishes?

I believe this is legal.  However, I'm not sure where you would find someone to help you preserve the skull, and I must say I'm not sure why you would want it.  Good luck with your...... endeavor.

I believe that men and women learned while they were growing up whether it was okay for them to express their emotions that way.  It's more socially acceptable for women than it is for men.


I'm helping a female friend get through some tough situations in her life right now but I don't want to take advantage of her emotional vulnerability. If though I do feel some romantic feelings for her how long should I wait to tell her? I was thinking perhaps after about a year because that would give her time to heal and become stable emotionally. I really care about her as a friend first, but I can't deny I have other feelings for her. Since she doesn't have a bf and I don't have a gf, I'm concerned that she may look to me as something besides a friend as well. She seems to be more comfortable confiding in me than her girl friends.

There's no particular period of time, but it sounds like you would do well to let her make the first move, if she's going to.  Don't underestimate the healing power of romance; of knowing you are wanted and cherished.  You're not being a cad to be available to her; a cad would storm the bastions and make a nuisance of himself.  Just be sweet and helpful, and wait and see.  If she is interested, she may be reluctant to let you know for fear of seeming fickle.  You both need time, but she needs to signal when she thinks the time of waiting has come to an end.


Asthenosphere. \n\nThe asthenosphere is believed to be a ductile zone, probably around 1400-1600 degrees C, that flows slowly in response to stress. It is not liquid. The applied pressures are above 100 MPa (14,500 psi). Various sources estimate its thickness at 180-200 km.\n\nI've added a link to one of my previous answers explaining plate tectonics, and a definition from Schlumberger, and another from USGS.


I am a science student.Will anyone tell me how to master the techniques of integration in calculus?(I know a lot of practice is required for that)Still i would like to have suggestions from expert science students to master the subject.

Step 1. Study all the formulas in your textbook. Don't get discouraged if you don't remember them all at first. The more problems you solve, and refer to the formulas while doing so, the better you will remember.\nStep 2. Many formulas are given in the general cases, say for a general n, for a general functiion f(x)...find out for yourself what it means, by reverting to the most particular examples you can find. If you have to integrate x^n, try integrating first, say x itself. The particular examples give you often better understanding.\nStep 3. Learn about the very definition of integral. Calculate a few integrals from the definition, by using sums, as shown in your calculus books. To do so, you would need to review some of your highschool material, such as how to sum n consecutive integers, squares of integers or cubes of integers. This step is harder for many students that the first 2, but once you have completed that step successfully, you will gain a feel for the integral and will understand many of the formulas your textbooks are using, might be even able to prove some yourself.\nThose three steps will make you exceptionally good in all but the most esoteric kind of integration.\nFor understanding about the integral, you may refer to the most thorough calculus book of the 40's, Fundamentals of Mathematical Analysis. It explains both the theory and the practice. It is considered outdated for math majors, but for science major it is still good, in my opinion.\nHope that helps

I have always wondered as to what BAR stands for and what it represents!!

The Bar is the court.  When a person takes the bar exam, they are seeking a license to practice before courts of a particular jurisdiction.  Thus, to "approach the bar" in court is to approach the judge, and a barrister is a counsellor in England who has been admitted to plead at the bar and conduct trials or argue causes.


i want to talk with opra winfry about getting a home of my own even if its just a mobel home

Actually, I don't think the average person knows how much mail she gets on a daily basis, all asking for help of some kind. And the millions of e-mail, containing the same messages. She had a show, where she showed what the inside of her mail room looked like. It showed stacks of mail, all from one day. It nearly filled the room! She has a full-time staff that's dedicated to reading that mail. It's rare that a few of them get picked to receive anything. Mostly, it's to make the show look good...and Oprah. I sent her a letter, a couple of years ago, reagarding me needing teeth really bad. I didn't have insurance at the time, with one tooth being impacted. I never got a response that told me they had even received my letter. I have, since then, received some help and got my teeth fixed. I'm not necessarily saying you'd never get chosen, I'm just trying to be realistic. You might be waiting for the rest of your life. Or, you could be one of the "chosen ones" and things would be really great for you. I would like to encourage you to see if your community has a Habitat For Humanity, and make out an application to receive one of their homes. You would be making small monthly payments on a home that you helped build. The payments are interest free...you only pay on the cost of the materials, plus property taxes and insurance. It's what I and my husband did. We've lived in our home now for over a year and we love it. They did such a good job, and we were very much a part of the work that went into our home, even picking out the rugs & colors of the cabinets! This is a very good program and is based on how bad the place is where you are now living. If you're living with others, sharing rent, you would still qualify. You also must have income of some kind. It's all based on need and ability to pay, even if you only have a small income. Give it a try. Anyone else that reads this can give it a try too. It makes your home that much more yours when you've worked on it. <*)))><


Its not that easy.\nFirst, you have to have excellent grades, high scores in SAT/TOEFL/GRE\nSecond, you have to be accepted into a school (pretty difficult since there are sooo many international students)\nThird, have enough funding to travel here, pay tuition and room and board.\n\nBeing an student in US does not make you an US Citizen. Your visa will expire unless you find an employer what will change you VISA status to permanent resident.\n\nAfter you become a permanent resident for a while, you can apply for citizenship with exams and interviews.


if atoms and molecules are just made of sub atomic particles at what point does these forces holding the particles together become matter.  Seems atoms are most empty space so how does that constitute matter?

The energy does not become matter.  The partcles are the matter.  You, and everything around you, are mostly empty space.

he uses the bathroom before bed and doesnt drink before bed!

Most doctors consider a bedwetting child to be any girl older than age four and any boy over age five who wet the bed.  Bedwetting generally declines with age.  About 10% of all six year olds and about 3% of all 14 year olds wet the bed.  In a very small number of cases, bedwetting can continue into adulthood. \n\nCause:  Chronic bed-wetting is thought to be related to (1) a physically and/or neurologically immature bladder and/or (2) a deep sleeping pattern.  Apparently these children often sleep so deeply that they are not aware of the message the bladder sends to the brain saying it is full.  It is presumed that bed-wetting is an inherited condition.  Usually a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent or other family member(s) will have had the condition.  Also, children with attention deficit disorder, learning disabilities or allergies seem to be more likely to be bed-wetters than children in the general population.\nEffect of Bed-wetting on the Child and Family:  By the first grade, most children are embarrassed by their bed-wetting condition.  They ten to withdraw from social activities that require sleeping outside their home.  They also often suffer from low self-image.  These children's feelings can be greatly affected by the attitudes of their parents, who may feel that their efforts to end the bed-wetting have failed.  Parents may also feel frustrated, angry and embarrassed about their children's bed-wetting condition.  Parents can help their children reduce negative feelings about their bed-wetting condition and speed up the process of overcoming it, by offering positive support, understanding and encouragement.\n\nTreatment:\nFirst of all, almost all children outgrow their bed-wetting habit.  As children mature, their muscles become stronger and their bladder capacity increases.  They tend to sleep less deeply and to become more sensitive to messages the bladder sends to the brain.  There are two approaches to treatment: Medical or Behavioral.  The medical treatment usually consists of the use of one of two drugs:\n\nImipramine (Tofranil)  This drug is a tricyclic antidepressant.  It is thought to either improve the child's sleeping pattern to improve the functioning of the smooth muscles found in the bladder.  This medication brings some improvement to about 30% of the children who have tried it.  Often, the symptoms return when the medication is discontinued.  The drug can cause serious side effects and needs to be closely monitored by the prescribing physician.\n\nDesmpressin acetate  This drug is a synthetic form of the antidiuretic hormone and is administered as a nasal spray.  It helps the child's body make less urine, and thus lessens the risk that the child's bladder will overfill during sleep.  The medication often works quickly.  However, the condition may return after discontinuation of it's use.  While this medication is much safer than Imipramine, it still can cause some side effects.\n\nBehavioral treatment is often more effective and certainly is safer than medical treatment.  While behavioral treatment may take somewhat longer to show results, the improvement usually continues indefinitely.  There are several methods that may be helpful:\n\nRetention Control Training:  The child is asked to control urinating during the day by postponing it, first by a few minutes and then by gradually increased amounts of time.  This exercise can extent the capacity of the bladder and strengthen the muscle that holds back urination.  Parents should always check with a doctor before asking their child to practice retention control:\n\nNight-lifting:  This procedure involves waking your child periodically throughout the night, walking your child to the bathroom to urinate, and then returning your child to bed.  By teaching your child to awaken and to empty his or her bladder many times during the night, it is hoped that he or she will eventually stay dry.\n\nMoisture alarm:  Moisture alarms are consi

Think a second. He was on the right hand of God with all power. Yet He came down to save us from our sins. But even though He was still the Son of God, while on earth He was also a man. So while He was in the Garden He was scared, but still went to do His Father's will. Jesus did have a choice. He could have left right then and gone up to be with His Father in Heaven, but instead He stayed down on earth to take away our sin. So did He go willingly? God Bless.

He went without fighting.  That's not quite the same thing.  Willingly implies that he wanted to go.  He didn't.  He prayed for God to stop.  He prayed that it wouldn't end that way.  But he knew that it was ultimately God's will, not his.  So he agreed, and yes, he did have the choice to follow God or not.  He chose to follow God.  That doesn't mean that he went willingly.  There's a slight distinction.\n\n**EDIT**\nI don't think that it was God's divine plan to have to kill Jesus.  The prophecies that I'm familiar with say nothing of Jesus dying.  They say that a branch of Jesse's tree will sprout and bring great joy, restore God's people, and show people the light.  That's why they were expecting a Political Messiah, a military leader to free them.  Isaiah also says that the One will rejoice in obeying God.  He fulfilled his destiny according to the prophecies.  He showed people the light, he obeyed God.  That is what led to his ultimate cruxifiction...obedience, not willingness.\n\nAnd Jesus was afraid in the Garden, he begs God to stop it, to take the cup away.  In my Bible, that is opened right now in Matthew 26:39 Jesus says "Let this cup of suffering be taken away from me.  Yet I want your will, not mine."\n\nIf he was willing, it would have also been his will.


Jews no longer sacrifice for their sins.  They know they are sinners because the Law shows us we all fall short.\n\nDo they have faith that they will be accepted as they are without sacrifice?\n\nWhat if the temple will never be rebuilt?  What if they are wrong and a sacrifice (Jesus) was the final offering?

From a Jew, from a Jewish perspective:\nWe pray to God.\nWe ask for forgiveness in out prayers.\nWe do teshuva- which literally means "to return" - to repent and arrive at a different spiritual and emotional place that is even higher and holier than before.\nWe perform deeds of lovingkindness - visiting the sick, helping the poor, giving extra charity especially - which is required by Jewish Law anyway.\n\nRepentance is a very important topic about which many Jewish sages have written.  It's possible to get very in depth here, so I just tried to get the basic info.


Someone in my sisters youth group committed sucide and i need to find out.

Praise God yes honey if they were a believer they most certainly will go to heaven.  Not going to heaven from suicide is something the catholics made up. The only way you can't go to heaven is if you were to deny Jesus as the son of God or that he didn't die for your sins.    .  Praise God there is NO sin too big for God to forgive through Jesus's blood >  Don't let anyone tell you any different.  If they do they are making it up  There is definately nothing in scripture to say anything different.(unless they take scripture out of content)  some people say that by killing yourself you are taking over for God so to speak. I mean that is like saying God isn't in control   God knew what we were going to do before we were made in our mothers womb.  In referenc to destroying the temple of God our bodies.  We are a spirit we live in a body and we have a soul (our mind will and emotions) our bodies are only temporary tents .  your spirit will return to be with God (this is a good example of taking scripture out of content)


Ginsberg, Allen is the author of the poem Howl.

Looked it up on line - seems like a rambling repetitive tirade.  Congratulations to you if you read the whole thing, I gave up after 30 lines or so.  There are a few words that some people feel are offensive.  There comes a time in peoples' lives where they have to get used to seeing and hearing them, even if they don't like it.  Should a teacher force a student who is uncomfortable with the words to read them out loud in front of the class?  No.  Should a fourth grade teacher assign it?  No.  Should a teacher downgrade a student if the student says "I read it and it's too bad the poet couldn't get his point across without cursing?"  No.  What happened: did a parent complain that his child was forced to read it?  A parent of a public school child should have that right.  And I accuse the poet of rambling!


There's this guy that i think he likes me right...and he told me to give him a call sumtime so we can hang out and i finally did, but when i called him he acted like he didn't know who was calling..as if he didnt have my phone number in his phonbook..=\ that is so weird..why? when we see eachother he acts so friendly with me and i jus find it weird..please someone explain to me why? oh and i dont know if i like him back, but lately i find myself think about him everyso often...maybe i am jus curious on how he feels about me...

guys are odd!They act like they like you to look good in front of other people(to be cool or desirable)but most of the time they're clueless!get over him and move on to someone else!

First off, never date a man who is already married. A real man would have gotten a divorce before starting a new relationship. You need to forget about this guy and move on to someone who is 'available' and ready for a relationship. \nYou don't want your daughter thinking it is okay to have a relationship with a married man or your son to think it is okay to have affairs while married. Remember everything you do effects your children.

Which one do you think was right, and why?\nI hope I spelled Pelegius' name right.

Pelagius (c. a. 354-418)\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nPelagius, although little is known of him only he is thought to have come from Britain and personally played an important role in shaping the early character of the Celtic Christianity. Although a priest, Pelagius was a Celtic monk and a highly respected spiritual leader for both laymen and clergy. What is recorded of his behavior denotes his Celtic heritage. He firmly believed in the individual--his free will and his ability to better himself as a spiritual being.\n\nThese ideas pitted Pelagius directly against the Christian Church of the time. It was the time when the Church was trying to combat the heresy of the Donatists of North Africa. Simply stated the Donatists claimed the efficacy of the sacraments depended upon the spiritual state of the priest who dispensed them. Such a declaration caused a great dilemma for the Church. For, if agreed to, it meant "the entire ceremonial edifice of the Church would be dependent on the moral character of the clergy and no one could ever be sure that a given rite had been supernaturally effective." But, if the Donatists’ declaration was declared false then "a sacrament could be effectively administered even by a heretic or heathen. "\n\nThe defense against the heresy was to save the structure of the Church. At the time many men of the Church including Augustine were speaking out against the heresy claiming "the Church (in the word’s of Augustine’s predecessor, Optatus of Mileum) is an institution, ‘whose sanctity is derived from the sacraments, and not estimated from the pride of persons. ... The sacraments are holy in themselves and not through men.’"\n\nNeedless to say, the Church’s stand would prevail. But, all Celts failed to see it that way including Pelagius and his chief disciple Caelestius who were contemporaries of the churchman Patrick in Ireland. Pelagius and Caelestius held firmly to the Storic doctrine of free will. Neither did they hold to Augustine’s doctrine of original sin which the Church adopted. Pelagius did not believe that man’s nature was tainted by the sin of Adam; and therefore, by his own nature and efforts could only inherit hell or damnation. He dismissed Augustine’s assumption that man could only gain salvation through the Church .\n\nHe declared the doctrine of original sin abominal, detesting it completely. It is this doctrine which declares that all men are conceived in sin and can only be saved by the unmerited grace of God which is only received through Jesus Christ and His Church.\n\nThe view of Pelagius and his followers firmly held to the Storic doctrine of the free will of man and the innate goodness of nature, which they claimed, was not corrupted but only modified by sin. Such a stand put them in direct opposition to their great antagonist Augustine. However, their view served for the basis of Pelagianism.\n\nPelagius’ views was not the only source of his troubles with the Church. He visited Rome around 380. What he saw and heard was in direct opposition to the rigorous asceticism practiced by him and his followers. He was repelled by the grandeur of the Church hierarchy, especially the Papacy. He " blamed Rome’s moral laxity on the doctrine of divine grace that he heard a bishop cite from the Confessions of Saint Augustine, who in his prayer for continence beseeched God to grant whatever grace the divine will determined. Pelegius attacked this teaching on the grounds that it imperiled the entire moral law." He won a great following and met his closest friend and collaborator, a lawyer, Caelestius.\n\nWhen returning to Ireland they continued to meet the criticism of Augustine, but Pelagius because of his life of asceticism and insistent preaching on "man’s basically good moral nature and on man’s own responsibility for choosing Christian asceticism for his spir


I recently was told that Chicago earned its moniker of "Windy City" not from it's actually wind speed, but because its politicians were braggarts (i.e., windy/windbags).  So I'm wondering, where does Chicago sit in the list of Chicago's windiest cities.

I am 43 years old.This is really scary,Have any one ever had this problem?

You should go see your doctor.  My Mom is 43, and she had the same problem.  It turned out to be Fibroids.  She had to have surgery, and is doing much better now.

My stepfather has two other children with another woman that he was with before my mother. They are 9 and 11 but have not seen him for 3 years because their mother doesn't want them to know him. She keeps changing her adress and phone number. Now she is on welfare and has finally come to my stepfather for child support now. He is more then willing to pay. He wants to see his kids, if it is good for them he would also like custody, but mainly he just wants to be allowed to see them. He really wants to have his day in court, but needs a laywer, how much should that run? Also what are his chances of being allowed to see them regularly? What about the chances of their coming to live with him?

A lawyer would cost anywhere from $3,000 to $5,000 dollars. Everything would depend on the environment for the children. Had that changed? The judge would work in the children's best interest.\n    Good luck to your father.


I need this for my AP World History class we are trying to get a bill put on the Coloeado state ballot that would help high achieving high school students pay for college tuition.  For example, if a student gets over a certain GPA lets just say a 3.0, they would be able to go to college and the state would pay their tuition for an in-state public college or university.

Nothing. Call your State Legislature and ask him/her to introduce the bill. Ask others to do the same.\nNow if your thinking "grass roots referendum" to get the issue on the State vote, that's different.\nYour State may be different then mine.


Only to have Slick Willy turn down the generous offer?


how many years at each school should i go? what schools would be best to go to?

I've heard that by time you get to applying for residencies (OB/GYN being a residency) they don't seem to place alot of focus on where you attended undergrad school, what you got on MCAT's etc.  \n\nHowever, like previous posters mentioned you DO have to do well on all those steps to get into medical school FIRST.  \n\nOnce you are ready to apply for residency, you will want to have good USMLE (Step 1 of the Medical Licensing Exam) scores (or  the D.O. version if you attend a DO school).  You should also seek a good mentor in the OB field.  They can help you with letters of recommendation and to choose where to apply.  You'll need several good letters of recommendations, good grades in your clinical rotations (esp. OB, Surgery, Medicine), and a good personality during interviews.  It seems during residency applictaion time, they are less focused on grades and more interested in learning about YOU (though good grades etc. help you get the interview offers).  \n\nSo, my answer is, choose schools where you have a "good fit."  Don't focus so much right now on that ultimate goal (assuming you are not in college yet).


Tell your friend that she should get into it.  Don't just lay there like dead wieght.  Touch, grab, kiss and switch positions.  Remember, practice makes perfect.


should I pay the fee of $35 and get to the survey sight? they advertise that there are many companies who post these surveys and are looking for people to fill them out.

You should not pay to join survey companies. There are many free sites like http://www.internetpaidsureys.com which list legitimate survey companies. But the earning potential is not great as promoted by these companies which sell survey databases. At best a couple of hundred dollars per month


I am curious to see what all the fuss is about.\n\nanyone know where I can find this cartoon on the net?????...or have they taken it down out of fear?


I just asked a question a little while ago. People answers had no relevance to the question. Do people truly read a question before answering it? And does anyone really know what NORML stands for?

Is it a good university? Do you like it there?

Good sports teams. . .good state school.  A major film--Breaking Away was set there in the early 1980's.  It is also the home of the Hoosiers.

Peter Wolf recently came to me with the following unfortunate story. He is the owner of the Wolfs Den, a famous downtown bar and restaurant.\nLate one Friday night, on January 27, 2006 at 9:00 PM,  a bunch of young businessmen and businesswomen (Patty Pill, John Jam, Bob Big, and Lisa Loot), came into the establishment, the bartender, started serving the party kamikazes-strong liquor-.Each time a round of kamikazes was served, they gave Bill a $10 tip. So naturally, Bill was\nhappy to keep on serving his kamikazes.\nOverall, Patty, John, Bob and Lisa each drank 6-8, 4 ounces of Kamikazes. Patty, John, Bob and Lisa started getting louder and began dancing. As the night wore on, Bill noticed that they were now dancing on the table tops and they were doing a strip tease. As more drinks were ordered, Bill noticed that John and bill were slurring their speech and Patty and Lisa were making suggestive comments to Bill ad they were walking stagger. Is tavern owner and Bartender liable drampsh

Typically most state dram shop acts provide for liability only if the person served was "visibly intoxicated" when served.  Under that standard, probably.

If people are truly interested and some NEED TO KNOW NOW,why do they not choose a best answer after a couple days?

They can choose it to go to a vote. If they are asking a question they don't know the answer so, if the answers are different how will they know who is right? Maybe they are trusting that people will vote for the best one and that's the advice they will take. Or maybe they just went out of town and missed the date and will check the answers when they get back. \n\nSince I know you will be choosing a best answer....why not choose me?

On December 22, my husband received orders to return to the Army after being out for two years.  He is a 21U and previously served in Iraq before his seperation date.  On January 29th he reported to Fort Jackson for a week for inprocessing, and last Saturday he was shipped to Fort Gordon.  He hasn't received any other orders or training.  Has this IRR recall happened to anyone else?

Unfortunately, this is actually quite common. A buddy of mine at work was recalled after being discharged from the Navy since 1996! He was an underwater demolition specialist.\n\nI am not sure how this is being done legally - especially with former enlisted who have not retired. Once your eight year committment is up, that is supposed to be it.\n\nIt is a bit different for retirees. Retirees can be recalled legally at any time providing they meet age requirements. Generally, recalled retirees fill slots in the States freeing active duty personnel to be deployed. Retirees have the right to refuse the recall - but they forfeit their retirement pay in doing so.

If we did not have the pupillary reflex we would burn the cones and rods in side the eye ... it would also burn into the retina. Ever look at a light bulb and then close your eyes and see the light? Same principle only magnified.


Specifically martial arts schools in North and South Carolina. I'm finding one school charge only $35 and others charging well over $100 per month for the same style of martial arts. I was wondering what the average is.

I've found that the average monthly fee for training is \naround $75 to $89. Regardless of region.


this war has been going on for far too long now, first it was bin ladin, when he couldn't crack that he shifted on to iraq(only when he was sure that they where totally defencless). With that over(even though not completly)he has started putting an eye on syria and iran WHAT IS UP WITH THIS MAN!!!

there is always a percentage or possibility, but I don't think so.  \n\nBush is a puppet for the wolfowitz doctrine and other high profile secret societies.

I keep hearing that Islam is a religion of peace and yet all of the terrorists are Muslims.  Then I see thousands of Muslims burning down buildings and killing people over a cartoon.  Is this against the Koran?  Aren't Muslims ashamed?

Because Islam isnt a religion of Peace.  It is a violent Terrorist religion.


Was it Brazil? Was it Germany?\nWas it the Korean team itself? Maybe the Japanse team?

Brazil defeated Germany 2-0. South Korea finished 3rd. Brazil wont the World Cup a record 5 times, followed by Italy and Germany, with 3 wins apiece\n\nRonaldo scored both goals in that game and finished top scorer with 8 goals. It's interesting to note that he's third (tied with Pelé) in total World Cup goals, behind Just Fontaine (from France, 13 goals) and Gerd Muller (from Germany, 14 goals)


i'm guessing that one big black guy who was singing "lola, she was a showgirl" and maybe the little bald kid who's cheeks got pinched. for the girls i'm not sure but maybe the opera singer..

Yes, I agree: That big guy Bobby is gonna go, and maybe that girl Brenna. The rest I am not sure about. The little kid that got his cheeks pinched had A LOT of votes on the Idol poll so I don't think he is going. The two lowest guys so far have been Bobby and Patrick. There is no way Taylor Hicks is going. He has pulled in the most votes by a landslide, at least according to the online polls.


This is for all the die-hard Christians out there......  If the earth is only 6000 or so years old, where did the dinosaurs come from?  Were they here first, then God killed them off and replaced them with man (which would mean that our scientific equipment doesn't work and all our dates are wrong)?  Did God just stick the bones in the Earth to give us something interesting to dig up?  Or, maybe all the scientists are just lying to us?

I think the question becomes: "Is the creation story as written in the Old Testament to be taken literally or figuratively"?\n\nRemember, in the New Testament, Jesus often used parables to illustrate a point.  My opinion is that the writer of Genisis did the same thing and used a story to make the point that God created the universe.  I don't believe that it was intended to be an historical record.

I need help on writing an essay on the weapons that were used during the time of Macbeth? Does anyone know? Please help me....Tahnks

Weapon's of Shakespeare's Macbeth's time would have included swords, spears, adze, ball and chain, gaff, war hammer, whip, bow and arrow, crossbows, mace, clubs and cudgels, flail, lances, pikes, trebuchet, catapults, battering rams, daggers and different kinds of knives.  Body armour was quite important.  \n\nHope this helps.


I'm making a pamphlet on Physical Education and Im trying to find ways that Math is used in PE.

For timed events, you can look at the average, median, standard deviation, etc of the time.  Similar for distances on things like javelin or shotput, or accuracy rates for archery.\n\nJust was watching the biathalon (cross country skiing with a few sessions of marksmanship with a rifle along the way), and there's some interesting math there.  When they stop to shoot at targets, they have to do a penalty lap for each target they miss.  Which brings up questions like, is it more important to be accurate or fast?  If an athelete can spend a month training, what mix of target practice and conditioning should they do?  If you know the speed and accuracy of each competitor, can you pick the favorites?\n\nFor the last one, obviously if someone is both faster and a better shot than anyone else, they're a favorite.  But in reality, the atheletes have strong and weak spots, so which combination of skills will come out on top?

What is the best way to teach a young girl to play First Base?

Well, really the best way is to have them do it.  Positioning depends on the hitter at the plate.  If they're a power hitter, play behind the bag off the line.  If they're a lefty pull hitter with power, guard the line a little more.  Bunting  situations, play in line with the bag at first base and the pitching rubber, guarding the line.  When they square around to bunt, start moving in towards the bag.  If the catcher, pitcher or 3rd baseman is going to get the ball on a bunt, get out of the line of fire!  If the batter is a slap hitter, play somewhere between the power hitter and bunting positions.  Other than that, it's really just a matter of hitting a few hard ground balls and pop-ups to the infield for the first baseman to get used to it.


So what's the next big thing in technology?

I don't know if I believe that. \nI still have a toaster. \nAnd I use it! Although it isn't much improved in the last 50 years, it has been such a good product that nothing has replaced it.\n\nWe keep adding more capabilities to the mix. There are a lot of things that can still be done with this technology, and the technology is always changing. \nI think we are not going to see the computer go away. I think we may call it something else eventually, but it will be a computer. We used to call a thing a computer when it had far less capabilities than it does now.\nI think the next step in it's evolution will be personal monitoring of our body and it's functions. A kind of intermediate medical care.\n\n(I never did buy a Toaster Oven. Wonder what that implies about my technological views today?)

I have a friend and we only talk on MSN IM. We have talked about everything and now our conversations are stale. Can yall help me to have interesting conversations? Give me some topics to talk about. Thanks. LOTS OF TOPICS PLEASE!!!

Talk about The Da Vinci Code or some other more current literary controversy. Talk about JT Leroy, the supposed famous writer who happened to be someone completely different.\n\nTalk about spirituality, or philosophy. Some philosophers think communication is impossible since each word maps differently for each person, so no one really 'gets' what you say.\n\nTalk about animals. Fish are great to have. Ask him what sort of pets he's had, and what funny things they did.\n\nAbove all, go out, live a little. Life always gives great subjects to talk about. Take care.

I have to be honest with you, although you can improve your skills by yourself & your trainning partners, or with dvd's, there's just no subsuite for a good trainner.


I have to write a debate in against of modern technology and need some very strong points.

Blessing.  Certainly there are problems to solve, but those problems will be solved by further technology, not by banning what we already have.  \n\nIt would be possible to provide a long list of the benefits of technology in the modern world, but I will cite a single example:  modern communication technology allows me, a complete stranger, to answer your question.  We never had anything in the past like the information tool we have now in the internet.  No matter how good a library one had available, it would still take a lot of time and know-how to research every question.  Now, it's all here at your fingertips.\n\nAsk any modern physician how many of his patients would have been worse off ten years ago, let alone fifty.  Ask any research scientist what has happened in his field as a result of modern technology.  The world does not stand still, and we cannot make it do so.\n\nRemember, nothing is an unmixed blessing.  Certainly the internet brings its own problems, but so did the technology of the crossbow!


3.You want to compute the values of the water pressure at various depths below the surface of a lake.  Compute the water pressure at 50 feet below the surface, 100 feet below the surface, and so on down to 500 feet below the surface.  Show the results of your calculations in a table.

The water pressure t a given depth is give as the weight of the water above that depth divided by the area it is being applied.\n\nSo imagine a column of water extending from the top of the lake down the depth.  Calculate the volume of this column of water then using the density of water (1 grams / mL) find the mass.  The take the mass of the water and find its weight (W = mg).  The weight it is the force exerted by the water, but pressure is the force of the water divided by the area it is applied.  So divide the force by the area of the base.\n\nEDIT:\nI see you added the density of water (even though I think my density [1 g/cc] is better).  I will leave you to do your own homework.\n[I also refuse to work with such an ugly unit, I prefer metric]

I tend to agree with the above person. Although there seems to be quite a bit of info on the internet, it's often better to have it explained to you by an expert.

For example, zip codes would be area related:  02116 = Boston, MA; 90210 = Beverly Hills, CA; 94108 = San Francisco, CA; etc.

For starters, check the website for the U.S. Postal Service. There you can check zip codes for any city for free. If you are looking for a hard copy, try the United States Census Bureau, US Department of the Interior.


Imagine if the world NEVER had the internet… what do you think it would be like? How do you think things would be different?

Yup, I agree with Froggie and nini_nil, the people of a family would be closer and they would spend more time with each other. Also, children who are innocent wouldn't get spoiled (You know what I mean !) by Internet. But yes, there would have been many disadvantages too. We would never meet those people whom we have met online. There would be no Yahoo Answers ! We would have to go to a library every now and then whenever we have a project work at school, people of different nations would remain to be far apart and wouldn't know the cultures and traditions of other nations. Yup, there are many advantages as well as disadvantages, though, I am glad Internet is there !


People say this all the time but really how do you get a life?

In my own personal opinion, a life is anything that you do that is not controlled by someone else and is not morfed just so it fits into the "in" style; it is your own personal thing.\n\nMeaning, if someone reads, and that is ALL they do, but they do it because it is a passion, that is a life. On the other hand, if someone plays sports and works out all the time just to look cool, they have no life.\n\n\nGetting a life is not a matter of changing yourself to seem more likeable in the face of the media and public, a life is a personality that is unique.

I know that the equation of circle is: y = √ (r² - x²), where r is the radius. Is there an equation of triangle or of a square?

No, there is not. Circle is part of called Conic Graphs.\nA circle can be described as all points that are at the same distance (radius) of a fixed point (center). You can not give this kind of description about a triangle or square.\nNow, the truth is that you can describe -for example- an square with four lines (y=a , y=b, x=a, x=b)but you can not put everything in a single equation, besides this, this kind of lines are infinites (y=a from -inf to inf).\nThere are other kind of equations that gives you the area or perimeter of these shapes (i.e: b*h/2), but this is not what you're looking for.\nSo, again: There are NO equation of a triangle.

I dont feel a dietican is the answer. more help please

Yea... My doctor sent me to see a dietician a few years ago and I'm an extremely picky eater.  Can't say that seeing a dietician did any good.  I'm not even going to consider eating that crap they suggested.


I know now that WINS is used to map NETBIOS names to IP Addresses.  When would this be necessary?

The only time I use a WINS server is when I have a VPN client coming into a network and they need to identify local machines by NetBIOS names.\n\nIf every machine on you network can address every/any other machine by name, you don't probably need it...  I have it installed on my network at the office, but I don't need it on my network at home...\n\nUsing a WINS server, every machine "tells" the WINS server it's address, so if someone needs to find a name, and are remote, they can ask him.
