Who was the first American law enforcement officer to die in the line of duty and what were the circumstances? I caught the very end of a story about it one time while channel surfing but I've never found the answer, anyone know?

Constable Darius Quimby \nAlbany County Constable's Office\nNew York\nEnd of Watch: Monday, January 3, 1791\n\nBiographical Info\nAge: Not available\nTour of Duty: Not available\nBadge Number: Not available\n\nIncident Details\nCause of Death: Gunfire\nDate of Incident: Monday, January 3, 1791\nWeapon Used: Gun; Unknown type\nSuspect Info: Executed on August 26, 1791\n\nConstable Quimby was shot and killed while attempting to arrest a man on a trespassing warrant. The suspect was found guilty of murdering Constable Quimby in the July session of the New York State Supreme Court and was hanged on August 26, 1791.\n\nConstable Quimby is the first known law enforcement officer to be killed in the line of duty in the United States.\n\n\nDear Old Dad


my bf is really good freinds with this girl at my skool who hangs with the more popular people i dont really have a problem with her its just were not friends ...we say hi in the hallway and thats it...well this girl who has always loved my bf and hated me says my bf was all over that girl....i dont want to believe her but they do always hang out...i asked him and he said he dont like her...im trying to not be so jealous...but ho do i ?

If he says nothing is going on, then trust him.  I have a lot of really great guy friends that are strictly friends.  If they have been friends for a long time, chances are they have built up a good bond.  You don't want to be the one to try to break that.  You might try suggesting that all three of you hang out sometime.  It may be akward at first, but you may get to know her better and even become friends.  Just make sure you don't always put yourself as the third wheel.  Be okay with just the two of them hanging out.  As for the other girl, chalk that up to pure jealousy and trying to break up what you have.


I have had some very bad things happen in my life on this date and did not realize this until very recently.

Guernica happened on that day, an innocent man was hanged, Chernobyl, Lucille Ball died, so this day was bad for lots of people.


I've been told the IRS Enrolled Agent exam is now computer based and has 4 parts.  I do not have a tax background.  How hard would it be for someone like myself to pass the EA exam?  Any current EAs care to comment?

Without a tax background, passing would be extremely unlikely.  It is a very comprehensive exam covering a lot of tax topics.  If you are really interested in becoming one, I suggest taking some tax courses at an area community college and study, study, study!  Also, if you are a CPA, you can not be an EA.


I just woke up feeling a little crabby this am. I took a muscle relaxer last night and I have cramps. I have A LOT to do this morning so I need to get going.

i say get over yourself!!! Think of all the hungry and homeless!!! At least you can sit at your desk, eating potato chips with the air conditioning on, playing on the computer while thousands of people are dying and being mistreated!!! You want to thank god your alive you selfish bastard.


on my yahoo messenger it is just a white blank. Any suggestions? I can get the avatar to show up but not a downloaded pic of myself.

Make sure the path you typed for your pic matches the actual location of the pic. If you moved the pic to a different folder, then the pic wont load, as the path would be incorrect. Also, Chech out whether the size and format of your pic is acceptable by yahoo.

A narrative poem is one which tells a story. I don't think this really tells a story. A good example of a song that could be considered a narrative poem would be "Painters" by Jewel.\n\nPainters\nJewel Kicher\nEighty years, an old lady now, sitting on the front porch \nWatching the clouds roll by they remind her of her lover, how he left her \nAnd of times long ago when she used color carelessly, painted his portrait \nA thousand times - or maybe just his smile - \nAnd she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go \n'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world \nOil streaked daisies covered the living room wall \nHe put water colored roses in her hair \nHe said, "Love, I love you, I want to give you the mountains, the sunshine, the sunset too" \nI just want to give you a world as beautiful as you are to me \n'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world \n\nSo they sat down and made a drawing of their love, they made it an art to live by \nThey painted every, passion every home, created every beautiful child \nIn the winter they were weavers of warmth, in the summer they were carpenters of love \nThey thought blue prints were too sad so they made them yellow \n'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world \n\nUntil one day the rain fell as thick as black oil \nAnd in her heart she knew something was wrong \nShe went running through the orchard screaming \n'No God, don't take him from me!' \nBut by the time she got there, she feared he already had gone \nShe got to where he lay, water colored roses in his hands for her \nShe threw them down screaming, 'Damn you man, don't leave me \nWith nothing left behind but these cold paintings, these cold portraits \nto remind me!' \n\nHe said, 'Love I only leave, but only a little, try to understand \nI put my soul in this life we've created with these four hands \nLove, I leave, but only a little, this world holds me still \nMy body may die now, but these paintings are real' \n\nSo many seasons came and so many seasons went \nAnd many times she saw her love's face watering the flowers \nTalking to the trees and singing to his children \nAnd when the wind blew, she knew he was listening \nAnd how he seemed to laugh along, an how he seemed to hold her when she was crying \n'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world \n\nEighty years, an old lady now, sitting on the front porch \nWatching the clouds roll by, they remind her of her lover, how he left her \nAnd of times long ago when she used color carelessly, painted his portrait \nA thousand times - or maybe just his smile - \nAnd she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go \nYes, she and her canvas still follow \n\n'Cause they were painters, and they had painting themselves, a lovely world


Then turnes around and buys long range missles and other weapons to point at the United States, they have missles pointed at New York, Los Angles, San Diego, I learned this from my congressman in his speech to congress, to try and stop this insane practice, I don't understand why they do this for China, when they no there buying weapons to use on us.

I like this guy who has been dating a girl for 4 months, what are some good ways to get him to break up with her (without telling him to). I know it sounds mean, but i think im in love with him.

Your in lust for him, it sounds like you need sexed. Relax, you will find someone


When you have a live coverage football on TV at midnight and beyond, you will sometime need to be accompanied with your spouse or partner.  How do your invite her/him to watch the live midnight game with you on TV, so you can not only enjoy the game but also enjoy your snacks, drinks, and 'dessert'?

The way my husband got me involved in football was by betting.  We bet every single regular and post season game, every week.  I sit with him and watch every game we can.  Now I love it, and my record is actually pretty good :-)


During Mahathir's era, Anwar was convicted but many people believe his innocence. When Abdullah Ahmad Badwi replaced Mahathir, Anwar was aquitted. It seems, the top executives can play with the law.

I BELIEVE IN ALMOST ALL COUNTIRES THE JUDGES ARE MANIPULATED BY THE POLITICIANS. ITS ALL A SCAM, THAT DOES NOT MEAN WE SHOULD ABANDON THE LAWS THIS IS WHAT KEEPS SOME OF US IN LINE.


I don't think there is a limit as to how many times you can go into your rental property, however, if your tenant feels as though you are constantly bothering them for little small items they will probably report you to the local authorities.\n\nIn my lease I am authorized to visit at least once a month for safety reasons as well as to see if there are things that need reparing.\n\nTo eliminate problems of tenant neglect you must do as good a job up front as possible to eliminate any future tenant problems. \n\nWhen I have eliminated the applications down to 3-4 possible tenants I find a reason to visit the place the are presently residing unannounced to get them to sign something or take and drop off a document. Once there I make an excuse to get into the place where they are living normally may I use your bath, while walking throuh the property I make mental notes about how they are taking care of this property.  Based on what I see will determine if they are gonna rent from me.  This will eliminate a few possible tenants though not fool proof, I have eliminate about 60% of my former headaches before I started doing this.\n\nNow once you see that the tenants keep up the property pretty well you can make a visit about each quarter. Don't run your tenants away by beingover bearing, remember this is their home and they want their privacy.  You can always expect a little damage that is the cost of doing business.  Once they move, and you make the necessary repairs all is tax deductable, check with your tax preparer for information on depreciation, mortgage interest, county tax and other possible deductions from having a rental. I make sure I enclude the cost of lawn up keep in the rent, I don't rely on my tenants to mow the grass or landscap the property.\n\nI hope this has been of some use to you, good luck\n\n"FIGHT ON"


How come there are no warning signs til it is too late?

There are different kinds. I assume you mean a cerebral aneurysm. There are congenital conditions that cause them. Often, there is no indication that there is a problem until after there is a rupture, causing stroke-like symptoms or death.\n\nIn a stroke, an artery becomes clogged, thus causing anoxia in the tissue that the artery serves. In a ruptured aneurysm, there is anoxia to the tissue, and there is also increased intracranial pressure caused by the blood flowing out of the vessel and into the surrounding tissue.\n\nThe more common fatal aneurysm is the abdominal aortic aneurysm. When these rupture, cause of death is massive internal bleeding and loss of circulation. These are nearly always fatal when they rupture. Common warning signs are a pain in the back or flank area or a palpable mass in the upper abdomen. But some people may develop no symptoms or warning for this kind of aneurysm, either.


A female friend of mine contacted me telling me how she felt about me a couple of years ago and i have feelings for her too, but now she is getting married and she still has feelings for me. I am so confused, what should i do?

This happens a lot.\n\nIt's OK to have "feelings" or love another person, as long as it does not become an obsession and interfere with her life.\n\nIs she unsure about wanting to get married to this guy/doubting her feelings for him? Or maybe she's afraid about the permanence of marriage.\n\nTalk it over with her.  See what she thinks would be best in the long run.  Ask yourself what you think would be best.\n\nAre you in a relationship now too?\n\nWhen she told you about her feelings years ago, did you guys get together, and have broken up before her current relationship...is she getting married just because YOU didn't ask her?  How long has she been with this guy, and are they good together?\n\nWhat should be the most important for you is what will be best for her.  When you love someone you can't be selfish.  Good Luck! This stuff never gets easy...

I'm 13 and I'm 5'4, dark blonde-light brown hair, chubby, green eyes but sometimes they look more of a blue-green, and fair skin. I am not, other than bein chubby, an unattractive girl and,although I can be shy at times, I love to have fun. I'm afraid that at school I'm not nearly as outgoing as I know I could and should be, but I find it difficult to be myself and just relax around guys. I understand that all guys really want at this age is sex and hot girlfriends, but I also know that there must be some good 13-15 yr old guys at my school, if I could get to know some of the guys they could probably even like me for me. How can I make myself more appealing to guys 13-15 yrs old? Be honest, do I sound ugly and is that really why they don't like me? Thanx in advance!

isn't 13-15 a little young?  when i was that age the best girl would have been a football.  yes, transform yourself into a football.  all of the guys will fight over you.  guys will pass you, run with you, line up and fight over you, and score with you.\n\nyou are too young to do anything with the boys.  the only boys interested will be trashy ones that want to brag about what they did with you.\n\nin two years you will be in the full swing of high school, you will look different, boys will be asking how do they get close to you, you probably won't resemble chubby at all.

i have ocd so its interrupted my education numerous of times. im always late well at the start of the season im early cause i have that motivation but then i lose it and near the end i get later and later and drop out until next year. i am unable to complete my projects and big homeworks or homeworks that require specific things cause of my ocd. this year was my last year and i missed my biggest exams cause of ocd. the only thing that will help me in further education is the preferences from my headteacher saying that i get above average test marks even though i have to cope with all this crap even though i dont listen in class but really are the exams that hard =.= anyways im scared that i have no future anymore cause i have no gsces and my ocd is always in the way. im scared that i'll end up in a very low pay unsatisfactory job like cleaning the streets =.= is there hope? should i bother striving anymore?

I don't think people can have selective OCD. If at the start of the school year you are early and doing well, then get later and later and drop out, that doesn't sound like OCD. OCD is something that you cannot control on your own. It is not suspended due to motivation for a period of time. It sounds more like you may have ADD or issues with self-discipline. If you really think you have OCD, see a psychiatrist. They can help you with medication and therapy. You are not doomed to a life of being uneducated or poor whether you have OCD or not. You can get help if you really want it.


I'm trying to ask her on a date but i'm feeling shy

your terminology is sweet (fair lady) but might backfire unless she's the renfaire type or a Cockney flower girl. \n\nJust ask her...nothing ventured, nothing gained. It might be charming to send her some flowers and ask her on the card, if she already knows who you are. Try to plan the date activity around her interests, if you know what they are, if not pick something romantic that allows you to get to know each other, and ask her questions about herself and truly listen. \n\ngood luck!\n----------------------------------\nside note: nice Camelot quote, fifties lady!  : )

Which do you deem is the more likely, that global warming will produce a new ice age or flood the coastal regions?

Flood the coastal regions.\n\nIf it's global WARMING, it's only going to trap the heat inside the ozone layer.\n\nIt also depends on what time of the year it is. The closer to winter it is, it might make a new ice age if there's enough water, which I think there isn't.\n\nThe chances of coastal regions flooding is greater than that of a new ice age.


i drink 5 cups of tea in a day is this the cause of yellowing teeths. or what i can i do to whiten them

Your first step should be to ease off the tea. It will stain your teeth, and no matter what you do, they'll keep staining. Once you've eased off, try whitening. Either in office or over-the-counter. The OTC whiteners aren't going to work as well as the whitening you'll receive in a dental office, but if you're strapped for cash, they're definitely an alternative. But, they'll just continue to stain unless you stop with tea, coffee, smoking or anything else you could be doing that is contributing to the stain...


I have heard horror stories of labels being too thick...what is the best (and least expensive) labeling software or label maker for CD's and DVD's that won't damage my DVD's when I play them back.

Acoustica CD Label Maker 2.34\nEasy CD Creater,\nNero\n\nThose have DVD labeling software. But for qualityof labeling, you should think the 2nd choice that, buy the printer equipmented with DVD disc printing. It will print on the DVD directly (special printable DVD) and require no hand job. It will make your label more professional and perfect. For example: Epson R800\n\nd10v01b


i need a true, logical answer, please help! thanks

HERE IS YOUR TRUE LOGICAL ANSWER: \nA lot of times players do attend games on their off nites. These games usually are with the team they will be playing against next. During half time the players will go only to the arenas exclusive sports bar so as to avoid the crowds. You too can go into the exclusive sports bar but, you have to have purchased a Premier Ticket such as a front row seat. It would be in the bar where your best of chances would be to meet the players. Best of luck to you and your favorite team.


I do feel good in a way, but Im now sick so quiting smoking hasnt really made me feel too much better yet.  can anyone who quit smoking tell me the advantages?

You are still feeling blah because the last remnants of nicotine are fading from your body.  You have to make it through the first months for the really bad withdrawal symptoms to disappear.  It takes a full three months before you'll feel totally human again.  It sounds like you are quitting cold turkey [ie. no gum or patch].  The good news is that people who quit cold turkey and succeed generally are able to give it up forever

Theres this guy and he's been constantly asking my best friend about me.. where i am? what im doing ? etc ec and he's asked her so many times that other peoplehave noticed and have mentioned it to me and to a point where my best friend wants to tell him to stfu. He texts me from time to time and told me he had a letter for me but its not from him and he made me go all the way to his house to collect it when its some stupid voucher.. Could this mean that he likes me? What is he playing at? He also has a GF but they only see each other on some weekends because they dont livei n the same place. When I went to collect the letter I stayed at his place with his mates and 1 of his mates began to flirt with me.. so I couldn't help but flirt back because the GUY paid no attention to me whatsoever and all he did was talk on the phone and go on the PC so I figured he doesn't like me... Give me your honest opinion on what you think about this situation? Does the GUY like me or not? thanks.

Are you sure hes not trying to set you up with his friend?


how come the doctors alwayz give ppl antibiodics? and what is so bad about it?

First, why it can be bad. Antibiotics are substances that kill bacteria; penecillin is one of the most famous. They help the body by killing bacteria that are causing an infection. But they don't work against viruses. Sometimes it's hard to tell if a virus or bacteria is causing an illness. Bacteria can become immune to antibiotics, just like people can develop a tolerance to medicines and they don't work like they should. When bacteria become immune to an antibiotic, that means that the antibiotic won't be effective at killing that strain of bacteria. So the next person who needs an antibiotic for that strain of bacteria needs a different (and usually stronger) antibiotic. If bacteria get immune to enough antibiotics, they can cause serious outbreaks that people won't be able to deal with. But there's sort-of good news: there are many strains of bacteria out there. Although that means many chances of infection, it also means that people will get different strains (and different strains mean different medicines and different susceptibilities to antibiotics). If a bacteria strain is immune to some of the strongest antibiotics available, then it would be a super-bacteria, causing potentially millions of deaths world-wide.\n\nDoctors prescribe antibotics for a number of reasons. A lot of people don't feel like their doctor visit was worthwhile unless they get a prescription to help them feel better. Sometimes it's hard to tell if a virus or a bacteria is causing the problem. Sometimes doctors prescribe antibiotics for virus illnesses because they think that it will help kill any bacteria in the body, so the immune system can focus on the virus infection.

Only if you could go back in time 10 years and have them tour together then. \nNow it would be fairly lame.


i have to write a persusasive esay! if anyone happens to have one please type it up! i need it!! or else i will fail

Your "question" sounds more like a demand (and an unreasonable one at that).  If you are so concerned about failing, I suggest you start typing it yourself.  You have no one to blame but yourself for failing the class.

This has bugged me for years, help me out?

Light is not air, and definitely not the same kind of 'light' that is meant with 'light as a feather'.\n\nThese are the short definitions:\n'The light shines upon you': Light = electromagnetic waves called photons\n'Light as a feather': Has a low weight compared to the size of the object


and the big expensive ceremony when it is more likely they will divorce? It is so stupid!!!

I think you're absolutely correct.  The reality is that most marriages won't work out.  Divorces are both emotionially and financially crippling under most circumstances.\n\nI don't understand why so many feel that they need a legal contract to commit.  Maybe if you're doing it for religious purposes, but the bottom line is that the wedding is going to be extraordinarily expensive (most of the time), the marriage will just as likely end in divorce as not, and if it doesn't, the couple will probably not be happy once the bloom is off of the rose.  I know so many divorcees who have had their financial future yanked out from under them because of divorce and I don't quite understand why so many seek it.


I have been led to believe it comes from 'Faunicate under the command of the King'.

Everyone is wrong except the guy who said it was from Anglo-Saxon.  "F..k" has a long pedigree in the Germanic languages.  It was found in Proto-Germanic about 2500 years ago as the verb *fukan 'have intercourse'.  This was not vulgar at that time and was a euphemism for some older word.  Ultimately, it comes from Proto-Indo-European *pug- "to strike", from which we get the borrowed Latin form pugilism 'boxing'.


doesn't matter what type of water you live in, and why did you pick that one type of fish?

That's hard.  One of two equally good choices:  a) flying fish cause then you get to swim and fly or b) a puffer fish cause you look all innocent and then BAM! you puff up and stick a needle in some shark's eye.

It's very important because I study languages,please.\nI'll be very grateful for you.\nI'm studing "English and frensh",but I hope to develop my knowing with the other languages.

The easiest way to learn a language and culture of a country is to travel for at least four months and try not talking in you native language.  At first it is going to be a little bit hard, but believe me, you will lose the nerves and loose up.\n\nIn order to preserve the language you have to keep speaking it.  Everytime I go back to the USA and start speaking in english again, I realize how much I have lost it, so, find friends at yahoo or other chat rooms, messengers, etc. who can speak the language with you


ever since i was a kid out of no where i get drepressed and have no reason to be, but my depression isnt as bad as i have seen other peoples. Oh and i dont want to knock my self off. i just want to get away from everyone. i kind of just want to hide. is there something i can do?

Go to a church which teaches the bible. You might have to try a few before you settle on one that you like. It does wonders for me. Also, listen to music, exercise and never give up.


It has been said in several places in the OT and the NT of the Bible...how homosexuality is DESTESTABLE to God and it is so clear cut God said it is not mortal and unacceptable to him.  I wouldn't want to upset him or disobey his commands in leading our lives Christ-like.   I believe we are to love the homosexuals in such way as we  love the sinner...but we don't love the sin.  I totally agree.  These Pastors, Reverends, Fathers, and other clergies figures are allowing them to practice as long as it doesn't hurt others and even marry them too. I kind of feel sad for those clerigies...I have no doubt in mind...that they know how God feels about this.  I would allow or even invite those homosexuals to my church if I were to have one to see how their lives are consider sexually immortal to God as stated in bible....in hopes they would realize the truth about how sexual relations were meant for only hetersexuals they way God says.  My prayers for those who tried to change God word.

We should allow anyone who wants to come to church.\nBut they need to be hearing the truth on what God finds acceptable or not. If pastors allow people to go on living in sin and He never confronts them, I feel sorry for him in eternity.\nIn our church we have prostitutes, homosexuals, alcoholics, drug users, and sinners of all sorts. We encourage all to come, and they either get their lives straight or become convicted and leave before to long. Sin can never feel comfortable in the presence of the Holy Spirit.


i am going to do b-tech in engineering soon


i have heard that it is better to pull an all-nighter for one night instead of sleeping for less than 2-3 hours that night.

For some people, that is true.  It really depends on your body's chemistry.\n\nGenerally, since your body is only halfway (if that) through it's rejuvination process, and could potentially be in the middle of REM sleep after 2-3 hours, it could potentially leave you feeling more tired than you would be had you not slept at all.\n\nAlso, once you are sleeping, you're in that nice comfortable place and you tend to be much harder to wake, so you may end up accidentally sleeping more than 2-3 hours.\n\nAll-nighters are not something I'd reccomend, but in some cases, yes, they are better than only a couple hours of sleep.

I need reported information about company marketing activities  also  marketing operations, organization and activities of the company if avaliable in the middle east or saudi arabia like SONY , HP, mcdonalds in order for me to assess its marketing strategy and operations and market orientation level. any support about websites that can help?

How about the websites of each of the companies you just mentioned.  Try investor relations, and/or checking out their press releases.


the media might like him then, prpable think he was great.


I presume that this person was a Holy Roman Emperor.

Gaius Flavius Valerius Aurelius Constantinus[1] (February 27, 272–May 22, 337), commonly known as Constantine I, Constantine the Great, or (among Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic[2] Christians) Saint Constantine, was a Roman Emperor, proclaimed Augustus by his troops on July 25, 306 and who ruled an ever-growing portion of the Roman Empire until his death.\n\nConstantine is best remembered in modern times for the Edict of Milan in 313 and the Council of Nicaea in 325, which fully legalized Christianity in the Empire, for the first time; these actions are considered major factors in the spreading of the religion. His reputation as the "first Christian Emperor" has been promulgated by historians from Lactantius and Eusebius of Caesarea to the present day; although there has been debate over the veracity of his faith because he was baptized only on his death bed.


Hi! I need to translate 'Influenza direct antigen test' into Spanish. Can anyone help me, please? I've found 'test directo' but then there's no way of making 'antigen' fit anywhere :P \n\nAnd if you cannot post the equivalent in Spanish, even an explanation could be of great help.\n\nThanks.

my childs father now wants to change her birth certificate to show his name too. he was not there when she was born and came around 7 years later. i'm so confused she says that he is really scarey to her. to the point that if he is mad when he comes to pick her up she is shaking when she has to go with him. and he says that she is lying. i have her in coulensing with me to try to work out her feelings toward him. my ex and i dont get along very well and he thinks that is because she has said too many bad things about me to him. i guess my real question is how do i help her and show her i love her. and do you think he is trying to make everything good between him and i just to get me to agree with him and change her birth certificate. if that is so what do you think i chould do.

I would have him investigated. Seriously talk to people who really know him. Maybe he's just trying to ease his guilt of being a deadbeat dad for 7 yrs. What ever his intentions are he is not doing it for your child. I've never seen a child that could not sense good intentions in an adult, they are very perceptive. Your right in being concerned. Talk to your attorney. about keeping him away...and I would not put his name on her  birth certificate. That is something she will have her whole life. Doesn't sound like she would like to see his name anywhere near hers.


like he always is like staring at my chest and he tried to ask me out and i said that i was going to puke so i went into the bath room til he was in his class again


i don't have anything against homosexuality. i have lots of gay friends. i'm just curious. are gay people born gay or is it caused by their environment? and is it possible for them (say, a gay man) to be interested (sexually) to a woman?

Scientific research has shown that there are genetic differences that have influence on homosexuality...but like any aspect of human behavior, the answers are more complex than a simple answer can give.  There's certainly social, familial, genetic, and other factors all working together that influence both straight and gay behavior.  Those who claim a simple answer like, "it's a choice" or "it's all genes" are both wrong.\n\nWhy does it matter, anyway?  That there are people who are homosexual, always have been and always will be, should be enough for "straights" to treat them just like any other human beings...


What should I do if I like her but I am not sure if she likes me?

Get to know her first and start off conversation something simple and interested in her or you. Just be yourself and relax she might like you who are.

My marriage for sure - seems there's never enough time to spend time together.  \n\nI also feel like I neglect my kids, while I'm doing housework.  But, I guess they COULD help me so that I get done faster & then we'd have more together time.  I don't feel guilty when I say "Hey, lets go to the show, or out to eat" and neglect housework/other things for the evening.  That stuff can usually wait!!


I worked in my yard and then got extremely dizzy and nauseous for several hours.  The next day I broke out with raging poison ivy.  Was the dizziness and nausea related or just coincidence and is this a normal reaction?

If you were exposed to alot of poison ivy, it could be normal, esp the nausea. Ask anyone who has a mild allergic reaction. It can make you nauseated. Has to do with the body's release of histimine.


I have never had this problem before. I think maybe its the codec. The picture plays in green and purple! What can I DO!

Dont use wmp use intervideo home theater

...Catholicism OR Hinduism....\ni am catholic. but i am uncertain. catholicism has things that seem strange to me, and in hinduism there are things that i think are not possible....\nbut i believe both or so i think....\nis there a possibility of having two faiths or religions?\nor having them become one? well not as one but to believe in both....?\ni do not know what to do.....\nim falling in this sea of thoughts that i cannot swim out of.....\nlife is so senseless.....

To april_hwth: Catholics don't pray to popes and saints as an end. They pray to saints to intercede on their behalf to God since they are already in heaven and can effectively communicate with God. Catholics can also pray directly to God, if they so choose. \n\nThe Rosary is one type of prayer asking the Virgin Mary (who is a saint) to intercede to her son Jesus on behalf of the person. It is not the only prayer that Catholics employ, but it is one of the more popular ones.\n\nAnd Catholics believe that faith is not enough to get to heaven. You should do all you can to do good works and help others because you'll find Jesus while doing good works. Faith without good works is dead. What are you supposed to do, just keep believing in Jesus and not do anything good? Is that fair for the people who spend their entire life doing good? Will they get the same reward as someone who honestly believes in Christ but does nothing good? Even Jesus did good things...and all Christians should do their best to emulate that good example, which does include good works.


I asked a similar question before...\nMy husband likes for me to talk really dirty to him and pull his hair when we have sex. Its not that big of an issue but, he likes for me to really talk disrespectful to him to the point where it's like I'm belittling him. I love my dude and I love to make him happy, but sometimes I feel like it gets a lil out of hand. I dont mind pulling his dreads and talking dirty, but I dont really want to necessarily do it to that extent all the time. I dont want feel like I'm having sex with someone worthless, which is how I feel by talking to him like that sometimes. I feel I took a vow and its my duty to make him happy just as it is his duty to make me happy (& he does), but I wanna tell him that I'm not feeling the harsh verbals (mainly when I'm on top). Sometimes I feel like a pimp and he's a hoe (seriously). \n\nMy question: HOW CAN I TELL HIM THAT I DON'T WANNA DEGRADE HIM LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME, BUT I LOVE HIM AND I DONT WANT HIM TO SEEK IT ELSEWHERE?

Be his lady in public, and his whore in the bedroom, if he wants you to do it, then you aren't belittling him or disrespecting him, you are respecting him by doing as he asks, get freaky in the bedroom with him, ROCK HIS WORLD for all its worth, you are NOT degrading him, he likes it like that, so do it for him(If it turns him on).  Let all your inhibitions fly right out the bedroom window, and become the wild woman he is looking for, or he might possibly go somewhere else to get it, and bring something home to you that you can't take off with AJAX.  Don't be afraid to let your wild side out.


Your personal opinion...not tainted with religion.\n\n1=> God does not exist\n\n2=> God exists but is unconcerned with happenings here\n\n3=> God is a just king sitting at nth sky ready to punish us or reward us for our deeds\n\n4=> God is an unjust ruler, only the Powerful snatch from him and innocent suffer\n\n5=> God is present in our own self and enjoying his creation through us\n\n6=> God is God I dont know what he is.\n\n7=> God is my master and I adore him  for whatever He does for me

If I had to pick one of your options it would be 5=> God is present in our own self and enjoying his creation through us.\n\nWhile I am very uncomfortable with a personification of God, I do believe that there is divine energy that runs through each of us and everything in this existence.  I believe that our consious mind is tapped into that energy and that we can direct it as we navigate through this life.  \n\nI think that when we die we will return to source as it were and be reunited with this energy source.  I believe this energy source is commonly called god and the reuniting is more commonly called heaven.  I think after a brief rest at home (heaven) we will set back out to learn more things using a new lifetime to learn new lessons.


no its not child suport i have no kids but i have a cat

WTF???...This does'nt make sence...did you mean to say that you "Owe" a large amount? Even if you did, that's still not a question...What does not haveing kids have to do with it...You might want to reword what you were trying to say.


Last month I had my period on monday, apr 17th. I started my very first patch on sunday the 23rd. A day later, i decided not to use the patch anymore so I took it off (on monday). Then a week later on the apr. 30th, I started my period again. I read that when the patch is removed you start your period again because your body is adjusting itself to normal. \n\nToday is May 16th and I'm not sure when to expect my period. Should I be getting it on the 17th or the 30th? \n\nI am totally paranoid because I had sex 2 wks ago and I'm not sure if I'd be late on my period.

If you had sex two weeks ago you can take a pregnancy test now to ease your mind, as you've passed the time when implantation of a pregnancy would occur.  To answer your question about when your period should come, it's hard to say because your cycle is now off due to your starting and then stopping the patch.  But it really doesn't matter, since a pregnancy test at this point should be accurate; if you have a real reason to believe you might be pregnant (i.e. the sex you had was unprotected), you might as well take a test.


I am bored, so I decided to make a survey, and ask everyone:\n\nHow are you Feeling?\n\nHow's life treating you?\n\nBy the way, I am no one, as that is how I feel. Life is okay sometimes.\n\nAgain, this is only because I have to much time to wonder how others are doing....

Feeling good. Life is treating me better than I probably deserve. Even though you are asking because you're bored, thank you for asking. And I hope you soon feel like "someone" because you are! ;)


You have to eat every day but you can live without sex for one day . What do you enjoy the most just for one day ?

Hmmmm that taste nice after eating him alive great F*ck xx


I don't let them across when i'm done i just process them send them on their way.

Ya! You are such a creep! That is like me promising you an entire life of no questions asked on any of you actions and then ripping it out from you! You should be so ashamed! Don't sleep with them, just send them back. Ever wonder how many children you could possibly have running around in Mexico?


awrtie..so this may sound soo hillarious but what the heck..i dreamt of my best friends brother.. only he was a lot older than what he seems to be today... and looked quite different.... i was with him in an old fashioned apartment that had big wooden doors..the moment i opened the doors, i saw that it was raining outside..he came along on his motorbike and i sat behind him..and held him tight..while we got drenched in the rain..he said that he loved me and i told him that i did too..there was a certain calm and peace about me being with him that i have never felt in my life before like a sense of security.then out of the blue i tell him that this relationship may not work..i said ur sister, ur family..and i have a flashback of my bestfriend and her family.now i see the look on his face and i can tell how deeply he is hurt and all he says is this.I KNOW..omg!!1 im in such a mess.cuz this dream felt soo real!nd i have never had feelings for him ever!!y dream this

I don't know if it really has anything to do with THIS guy. Maybe your subconscious just used him as an example for you. Maybe you want to find love but maybe your too afraid of losing it and getting hurt that you don't even want to give it a try. Maybe your afraid that if you do get in a relationship that he will leave you and that is why he said "i know". If that is the case, don't be so afraid of life, if you hide the key to your heart, you risk losing it forever. OR... the dream could mean that you really do somewhere have a thing for him. Or it could just be that its 3am and i should go to sleep. Good luck.


crdit card company sued me in civil court. The Lawyer wants me to pay a min. payment $120.00/month. I'm disabled & can't work. I told them how much I could afford to pay /month. There was nothing stated as to the amt per month or how long I have to pay it, listed on the papers I got from the court. They said they want to know all my assets so they can have a sheriff's sale of my items to pay back.

Today during cheer practice, a very rude chick called me and the rest of the girls "fast a s s white bitches". I have no idea as to what that means. But I guess she made that comment after she saw our routine we're doing for our senior show. Anyway can somebody help me, because I've been thinking about this statement all day!

fast seems to be referring to you as "easy". She pretty much called you a hoe.


The answer is no. I watch the game, record it, and watch the reruns of every one of them.

I love them too...moved away from Houston and it's tough not being able to watch them every day.  God bless Russ Springer and the 36,000 fans who stood up to applaud him beaning the Cheater.


I also want to find out why all the planets in our solar system circle the sun in one particular direction and not its opposite.

Simple Answer:\n\nCosmologist and Astronomers really don't know, but they have theories. \n\nThe predominant theory is called the nebular hypothesis. It states that our solar system was once a cloud of nebular dust and debris. As the gravity of this dust began to overcome the angular momentum of the cloud (somehow) it began to swirl and contract and the entire cloud all swirled in the same direction. Over time clumps started to form and build as the clumps gravity became stronger. The center clump of the cloud became our sun and all the other little clumps became the planets. \n\nThere are many problems with this theory, but that goes for a lot of scientific theories.\n\nA planet could very well circle in the other direction but it would have to be hit with force greater than the force of it initially being pushed when the swirling cloud began. In fact some planets to rotate differently than ours and I believe uranus is tilted completely on it's back relative to it's poles. Several small moons also rotate backwards. The theory being that large astronomical objects hit them and caused them to go retrograde.\n\nbut remember, these are all theories.\n\nHope this helps.


will 2012 be a pleasent transition/cleansing, or a cleansing of catastrophic porpotions, or is it our choice to decide how it wil happen?

we know not when the end of the world shall be.  i'll tell you now, it won't be then because so many people expect it.  Even Jesus said, "For not even the Son of Man knows when this day will be, or the angels of Heaven.  only the Father knows."


questions about a person (guest of honor) that can be easily answered, multiple choice or fill-in-the-blank type questions, ex. favorite color? red black green blue, be more creative of course, thanks for your help!

I think that play when Jeter flipped the baseball backwards to Posada against the As was the best ever. But it would be cool to hear your opinion.

Couple of corrections:\n\nSecretariat won Belmont by 31 lenghts, not 27.\n\nIt was Larry Bird who stole the in-bounds pass and fed Dennis Johnson for the game-winning layup against the Pistons in '87.\nThat was in game 5, it gave the Celtics a 3-2 series lead, they ended up winning in 7 games.\n\nJohn Havlicek stole an in bounds pass in game 7 against Philadelphia back in the 1965 Eastern Conference Finals. Boston won that game 110-109. The pass was thrown by Hal Greer and was intended for Chet Walker.\n\nJeter's play was awesome, never have seen one like it before or since, a shortstop covering THAT much ground to back up a play. \n\nLynn Swann's catches in the 1976 Super Bowl against the Cowboys were as good as any football play I've ever seen, particularly the mid-field 53 yard reception, shown sometimes on ESPN's NFL films shows (although ESPN is much more fascinated with Elway's "the Drive", which ended up meaning absolutely nothing, since Elway got shredded in the Super Bowl, as usual).\n\nWhen it comes to single plays, great catches in baseball always come to mind.\n\nTommie Agee made a couple of great catches in the 1969 Series, and Ron Swoboda made a diving, 9th inning, backhanded catch of a Brooks Robinson drive in Game 4 of that series, saving the game which the Mets won in extra innings to take an insurmountable (unless you're the Lakers) 3-1 series lead.  (However, the year before, in 1968, the Tigers came from 3-1 down to beat Bob Gibson and the Cardinals in the series, and that was still fresh in our minds in '69).\n\nWillie Mays' catch in the 54 Series is pretty much considered the greatest ever, and it's tough to argue that one. It's probably the best of the television era at least.\n\nFranco's Immaculate reception was incredible.\n\nI'd say Jordan jumping form behind the foul line to dunk in a slam dunk contest, but 3/4 of his foot was over the line, so that doesn't count...\n\nWhenever Chamberlain/Russell or Chamberlain/Jabbar or Jabbar /Walton dunked over each other, that was always awesome. \n\nDr. J dunking over Jabbar or Walton was an incredible sight as well. Now of course, we see little guys dunking on big guys all the time, but in the 70s it was much rarer, as the big men of that era were vastly superior to the big men today....\n\nMontana to Clark was great.\n\nGame winning field goals, regardless of the situation, aren't as exciting, because the don't display the athletecism of plays like those listed above...\n\nGibson's and Fisk's game winning HR's were OK, but jeez, they've only played them a zillion times, and they expect the viewers to get just as excited the millionth time as when it actually happened... Only Seinfeld can survive THAT many reruns and still be good...

which law of physics supports this question?

First I'll assume this isn't a trick question, i.e., that the balls start with the same speed and have equal densities. They are rigid and roll on a rigid surface. What slows them down? Air resistance and going uphill. Not friction because they are rolling, not sliding. \nWith the same initial velocity, they have the same translational momentum per unit mass. However, another factor is the angular momentum due to rolling. Let ball 1 have a radius r=1 and a mass m=1, and ball 2 have r=2 and consequently m=8. If each ball has an initial velocity of 1, ball 1's angular rate w=1 rad/sec and ball 2's w=0.5 rad/sec. The moment of inertia I of a solid sphere = k*m*r^2 (k=0.4), or I=k for ball 1 and I=32*k for ball 2. The angular momentum = I*w, thus I=k for ball 1 and I=16*k for ball 2. While both balls have the same translational momentum per unit mass, ball 2 has twice the angular momentum per unit mass and therefore a greater total momentum per unit mass, which means a greater force * time per unit mass is needed to stop it. Going uphill provides the same force per unit mass on each ball, so ball 2 goes further uphill. Air resistance per unit mass is greater for ball 1 since air resistance depends on area, and ball 1's area/mass ratio is 1 vs. ball 2's ratio of 0.5. Again, ball 2 goes farther.\nEDIT: The balls have different momentum per unit mass but the same energy per unit mass, so my argument above about uphill travel is wrong; they go the same distance uphill. But air resistance still favors the larger ball. So answer 5 is the best answer so far. Another real-life factor would be: suppose the balls are on a rough surface or face an effective drag of a surface such as a rug. A larger ball wins on both. The larger radius means smaller vertical motions for a given scale of roughness (e.g., gravel size), so less energy wasted per unit mass. And you can visualize how a deep-pile rug would stop a rolling golf ball much faster than a bowling ball.


I've been with a guy for about year now that I met through a friend and we have a good, casual relationship.  We get along, joke around with each other and he is great in bed.  However, I have come across my ex of about 4 years and he has been trying to get me back ever since.  My ex is sole heir to a fotune but I do not want that to be a waiger in who I chose.  My current boyfriend is no heir but is not poor either;  he can take good care of me.  The point is, how do I know which one to chose?  It's so hard because when I have problems with one I run to the other and that's not right, I know.  It kills me inside and I cannot take it anymore.  Please help.

Your ex is your ex for a reason. Remember that. It sounds like you have a good relationship with this other guy, I think you need to let your ex go and forget about anything that might take you back to him. You are not being fair to either guy by running to the other when you have problems. Instead, get on yahoo answers to help solve your problems...lol! just kidding. But seriously, you need to move on with this new guy. You might feel things for your ex and that is natural because you have a past together...but it's just that, a past. Time to look to the future and move on. Good luck!


is it a good career to get into? is anyone happy doing it?

Very good money.  My sister-in-law has been doing it for several years and enjoys it very much.  She has worked her way up to head of the department at a big hospital.


pilar is starting a small business that makes specialized stationery. She sinds that producing larger quantities of a design saves her money. Each print run costs $50 plus $2 for each item. If y dollars is the cost and x is the # of items, this statement can be represented by y=2x+50, right? She can sell each item for $4.50 so her revenue, y, is =4.50 times the # if items:y=4.5x the solution of this system of equations is her break even point. How many items must she sell to break even? (10 PIONTS!!!)

The answer is 20. But i wont tell you how i came up with the answer bcoz i want you to do your homework yourself. Good luck.


Do you think he even understands the meaning of the word?

Does it matter?   Al Gore and John Kerry  both spoke in a very sophisticated manner and were boring as hell!  I can't imagine staying awake for more more than a minute with either of them as a guest speaker!  Most people giving a long speech would use notes or a monitor,  you try standing and speaking for 45 minutes or an hour at a time and stay on topic without some kind of aide.  Take it easy on the criticism, most of you can't even use "spell check".


I am working in a company, i nine hour job i hardly have 4 hours of working, in remaining idle time i work on internet. Earlier i was doing constructive work, but now i have started watching porn, chat, read erotica extensively. I feel i m going wrong way. I am doing all flithy work. Can any1 suggest me how to improve myslf in doing some good work in this idle time. Please help and give your valuable Suggestion.

good that you are acknowledging that you have a problem. the first key to solving a problem is to admit that you have a problem to begin with....Your obsession is not natural or healthy.......you are letting your thoughts control your behavior.....SWITCH CHANNELS......occupy yourself in other ways.


i am in sooooooooooooo much pain cos my dad dosnt care bout me anymore!

ur parents still love u hun.no matter what stupid selfcentered things they do it has nothing 2 do with u.u need 2 relize that what ur parents do is not because of u acutually its just there selfishness.they did something without thinking n ruined there lifes,they did not however stop caring about u or do this 2 hurt u even though it does hurt u.be strong hun and know that u r a good person,so r ur parents there just misguided right now.


please put from what country are you from? thanks!

The flat nose, and open nostrils, I guess.


I am happily married and certainly not a "dirty old man"!\nI have a sexual appetite, the same as most. But if you are over 40, people think that if you talk about sex, there is something wrong with you.\nI was in a pub today, where a 67 year-old man bought three "blue" movies for his 83 year-old neighbour, who is still married and has an active sex life with his wife who is 81 yrs old!\nWould you tell him he was a dirty old man or congratulate him?

The "Dirty Old Man",usually refers to the man who happens to like woman/girls who are at least 30 years younger than them,someone old enough to be his daughter. I see nothing wrong with you,or your neighbors watching "stag" movies. Their only movies!. Your "80 somethin",year old neighbors are not getting off on these movies. Visual stimulation would not work for him. He's probably popping Viagra,and having a poppin good time! (I ain't mad at him!)


The file contains database of flux and current characteristics of a motor and it works fine. I want to open the database. plz help.

.dat should be text-based file, therefore you should be able to open it with Notepad. Now, if it contains contains fields of information (fixed width, or data separated by comma, tab, or other character) you should be able to use Excel.  But first, i would trying with Notepad to have an idea of what's in there. If you don't know what software created it then your best bet is to open it in a HEX EDITOR.\n\nOr else you can also try the tool named "Dat View" from this http://www.angelfire.com/ego2/idleloop/archives/dat_view.htm\n\nGood Luck\nKhoj


How can I tell how many volts my PSU is I need 250 v for my Video card.

I think you meant WATTS versus volts. You will need to inspect your power supply for that information.\n You need to check out he following website, for more info on what you will truly need 250W sounds a bit low by today's standards - http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/


Right now I can run a 2:30 800 as a freshmen girl... and I ran both of my 400's 75 and 75. I am a sprinter. I have two questions. 1) Should I do distance next year to improve my time? 2) Should I attempt to get the same splits for each 400? Thanks!

If you do XC in the fall, you'll definitely have the endurance base you need to succeed in the 800 -- and playing basketball will help you to maintain that fitness through the winter.\n\nAs far as running a better 800 time, you should try going out faster and seeing how well you finish up in.  If you're able to run even splits, that means you definitely have the endurance aspect of the 800 down, now try to push yourself a little more on the first 400.  maybe go out in 70 and see if you can come back in 75 still.  Even if you end up running a 70/77 that's still 2:27.\n\nAs far as running distance next year for track, that won't necessarily help you very much.  It seems like you have the endurance, but you need to do speed work.  I suggest asking your coach to put you on a middle distance plan.\n\nDo some distance in pre-season, and as the season goes along, start incorporating speed work more and more.  This will help you first to get your distance base, and then to build up your kick.\n\nGood luck.


For a very long time also I noticed that my hands sometimes shakes.

that sounds like stress my friend. go see a doctor now. don't mean to alarm you, but it could be bells palsy. that happend to a friend of mine and he started with the symptoms you just explained. go see a doctor now!!!


I asked a lady out a few month ago, and she told me no and that she didn't want a relationship. HOWEVER, after answering the question thusly, she has started "hanging out" with me more.  After a while we started kissing and made love soon after that. We see eachother every day and all of the above continues, and yet she still doesn't want a relationship. whats the deal?

Simply, she doesnt want to be committed.  She wants to be "friends with benefits".  Something she doesnt feel tied down to.  Why that is, is up to her, really.  Was her last relationship that bad, maybe?  Does she want to not be exclusive to one person?  An honest conversation would do wonders.


rent is always late was selling house after 4 years buyers backed out now i have a girl in there that has clothes all over the basement,dog,cat,the house id decussting . we went over and mowed because she failed to tell us her loser boyfriend mived out and took the mower. and i was warned by the city about the grass,tires,matrease and just a mess took us about 3 and1/2 hours yesterday cleaning the yard that should have only taken 1 hour tops and still not done have to get a dumpster

The general rule is 30 days for normal notice in a month to month tenancy or at the end of a lease.  However, as your tenant seems to be in violation of her lease, most states provide for notice of 3 - 7 days for an eviction for cause.  \n\nDepending on the state, and the speed with which the courts act, eviction may take anywhere from 30 - 90 days.  Of course you could get lucky and she'll move out within the initial notice period.  \n\nWhatever you do, do NOT attempt a self-help eviction or lock out the tenant.  You'll leave yourself open to civil liability and possibly criminal charges in some jursidictions.\n\nConsult an attorney in your area for advice specific to your jurisdiction and situation.


i met so many shy guys that are affraid to ask a girl out or tell her they like her. i would really like to know what are u affraid of....we don't bite \nplease serious answer!

To tell you the truth, people are moulded with their background; religion or culture. These two aspects are affecting a lot guys, and also responsible for their timidity. I was like that before I met a gurl who, through her love and caring has helped me tremendously to break all that in my life. I advice you do the same for a guy you love and beleive he really loves you (but for his timidity). I can assure you, he'll never forget you in his life. Cheers!


Well he feels good, he get's up offa that thing and says it loud that he is black and proud. His Papa once got a brand new bag to which he responded give it up or turn it loose.\nHe is living in America, out of sight and although his only fault is he feels like being a sex machine, yes....I would say he is.


Last year I heard they are opening a sex muesum in London in Soho. I wonder is it open

I haven't heard much about it, but read this article, it might give you some info.\n\nhttp://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/10/07/world/main925895.shtml

i feel sicker than hell, my family is all sick, and i work the nite shift, so it's usually especially tiring....plus i have to go in for minor sugery on friday. should i take today off to try and get better?

Yes , if u dont take care of urself , then how u want 2 do work.


My family and I are constantly fighting, physical and verbal.  I have no way of escaping it because I can't drive and I live out in the middle of nowhere.  I'm constantly hurting the people I love and I'm constantly making mistakes.  I'm nothing.  Just when things are going right, they end up going very wrong.  I'm thinking about breaking up with my boyfriend 'cause I don't think that he can deal with my problems and his own and I just don't think that it's fair to him. I've only got a week of school left, and then I'm graduated for good.  My grandfather told me this morning that I won't get any money from his family 'cause I hurt him over something that happend with a teacher a while back.  This means no college money or anything.  They say I'm lazy when I'm not.  I can't help it that I'm looking for a job and can't find one and if I do, I have no way of gettin' there 'cause they won't let anyone drive me.  I don't only have to put up with mum & dad, but their parents, and brothers.

only you know what to do. but i can try to give advice.  find a job even somewhere you don't want to work.  catch the bus, walk to work.  whwre is your boyfriend? does he have a car?  do any of your friends have cars?  why does your family act like that with you?  be truthful.  prove to the, that you are not lazy stop pointing the finger and take some initative.  don't break up with your boyfriend you may need some one to come through this mess with you.


I am a regular sub and next week I have to sub the worst class in the school. It is a 2nd grade boys class who are very disrespectful and rude in general. (this is an inner city school) The kids remind me of the kids in Dangerous Minds but in 8 year old bodies. Now the only way I have ever gotten them under control was to bribe them with stuff...so bad..I know. \nShould I use tangiable rewards if this is the only way to get them to listen to me? I wouldn't do this in my regular classroom day and day out  though.\nAny ideas? I am thinking of handing out raffle tickets for prizes at the end of the day?

You have quite a week coming up, don't you?\n\nI think the best approach to use is a practical one.  No, you wouldn't bribe the kids in a classroom that is your regular class, but you don't have time to discipline this class, to teach them to conform to your expectations over time.  They know you're only going to be there a short time and that your assessment of them isn't the one that will be on their report cards.  They don't have much reason to cooperate, do they?\n\nSo, giving rewards (not bribes) is the plan.\nWhen you are thinking what to do, I'd suggest that the rewards program doesn't take much of your time and attention.  I tried giving raffle tickets out once and found that I was forever handing the things out and they were really getting in the way of doing other things.  How about smaller rewards more frequently given?  If you can give them ten extra minutes of recess as a reward for a morning of good behavior, that will keep them more motivated than a bigger reward at the end of the week.\nIf you want to reward just some of the kids (because there will be some stinkers, even in a generally good class) you could try something like a treat at the end of the day or something they could show their parents, a certificate of good behavior.  Maybe having a "Roll of Honor" that will remain for the regular teacher to see with the names of good students will get kids to try to be included.\nI think you also have to work some way that kids who get off to a rocky start in the week can sort of get on board and achieve some reward, too.  I like your idea of making the rewards program start new each day.  If you are doing the Roll of Honor thing, perhaps the kids who are good each day could get a star after their name each day they qualify for the list.  That way even if a kid only behaves on Friday, his success can be recognized and another kid who was good all week will remain motivated since each day's success is noted.\n\nGood luck!


You must be honest.  When you first see what a woman what is the first thing that you notice about them?  I mean other T and A.  Her hair, eyes, mouth, voice, etc. etc.

Eyes. Eyes are pretty high up the list even if "T and A" were included!\n\nThey might be 2nd and 3rd, though. ;)


I have been to two different colleges and have noticed that there are always some people on campus that look lonely. I am a loner by choice, but I am also active. I am referring to the people that people talk about as they walk by because they are different or soft spoken.

Yes...and I have, but not usually with strangers.  But I think you could get away with it. If you said a big "HI!", and wrapped people up in your arms they would probably hesitate trying to figure out if they know you.  Then you could say, "You don't know me, but I thought one of us could use a hug!"  But I'm stuck after that. I'm more of a long term relationship person.  I think I would want to invite them somewhere to talk and get to know each other. Random hugs probably wouldn't do it for me. Maybe just a nonreligious/nonpolitical social club would work: The Hug Club!

She dose not return my calls, or do anything on my case. Is there an organization that could help me to get my money back from the lawyer?

If this lawyer is indeed not doing her job, and you believe this to be a true violation of your client-attorney relationship, then you should report your lawyer to your state's American Bar Association.\n\nThere is a two-inch-thick manual of ABA approved rules of professional conduct for lawyers and if your lawyer is violating rules of diligence and competence, then you are more than entitled to get your retainer back. \n\nTechnically, a lawyer cannot spend any of the retainer money until his or her assigned tasks (for which the money was paid) have been completed. Therefore, unless your lawyer has carried out the tasks you agreed on, that money should still be there. \n\nConsider the following questions before you contact the ABA:\n(1) How long has it been since your lawyer contacted you about your case?\n(2) How complicated was the task assigned?\n(3) Does the attorney work for a firm where you could try contacting the firm first?

I had been best friends with this guy for 12 years...He would tell me in subtle hints that he loves me without saying he loves me...and when we used to date a long time ago he used to say things under his breath so I could not hear him about how he felt about me..I really heard him then but never said anything to him that I knew..to this day he doesnt know that I know...Its driving me crazy cause he will not say he is in love with me, but he will say it with other wordsHe tells me he feels the same as I do...but he never acts on it..and I get fustrated cause I dont know what to do...I am very much in love with him and I know he is with me, but I just dont know what I should do...Please I need some advice...anyone got any??

Are you Canadian?  If yes then expect this throughout your entire love life until you leave the country.  If not then tell him to move to Canada, he will find people like him there.  This guy need a kick up the ass.  But do it right, you obviously care about him, he obviously needs a bit of a Manhood boost so give him what he needs.  Take him Bunjee jumping or something like that, ask him a few hours later when he is still fearless and filled with endorphins and then give him the night of his life in the sack.  If a girl did that for me I would have no problem fessing up about my feelings, but then I'm not canadian.


ive always wondered what makes girls and boys think different.does any1 know why?\np.s this is not a joke i really want to know.

it's an argument that's as old as it is contentious: that male and female brains work differently.\n\nMichael Gurian, psychologist and author of "What Could He Be Thinking?" believes there are about a hundred structural differences that have been identified between the male and female brain.\n\n"Men, because we tend to compartmentalize our communication into a smaller part of the brain, we tend to be better at getting right to the issue," he said.\n\n"The more female brain (will) gather a lot of material, gather a lot of information, feel a lot, hear a lot, sense a lot," he said.\n\nScientists say males have more activity in mechanical centers of the brain, whereas females show more activity in verbal and emotional centers.\n\nThe differences can be noticed from early childhood, Gurian said, such as when an adult gives a child a doll.\n\n"That doll becomes life-like to that girl, but you give it to a two-year-old boy and you are more likely, not all the time, but you are more likely than not to see that boy try to take the head off the doll," he said.\n\n"He thinks spatial-mechanical. He's using the doll as an object".\n\nTo find out why these differences exist, scientists have taken voyages deep inside the gray matter using MRI scans.\n\nThe scans show that in most women, the corpus callosum area, which handles communication between the brain's two "hemispheres", is larger.\n\nIn layman's terms, it means that the two sides of the female brain "talk" better to each other -- which could explain why studies show women tend to multi-task better.\n\nOn the other hand, the scans show men tend to move information more easily within each hemisphere.\n\nIt all boils down to genes, according to Dr. Marianne Legato Partnership for Gender Specific Medicine Columbia University.\n\nWomen are born with two X chromosomes, and men with an X and a Y.\n\n"And on that Y chromosome are at least 21 unique genes unique to males which control many of the body's operations down to the level of the cells," Dr Legato said.\n\nShe also said those genetic differences explain other differences, like why men can drink more alcohol than women without becoming intoxicated.\n\n"Women do not have the enzyme in their stomach that degrades alcohol which men have," she said.\n\nUnfortunately it doesn't explain why some men leave the toilet seat up, or some women can't take out the garbage.


Is Content still King in developing good websites?

i believe it still is when creating new sites. there are many slick and graphically cool sites out there but people tend to look pass that and want good content. i think with the whole web 2.0 hysteria it is going to be even more important to have good content, and more specifically, a good way to distribute that content (like rss feeds). i think people are moving towards an attitude of wanting to pull in content from different sources and display the information how they want and not have to go to many sites to get the information. in this case content is not only king but really the only thing that matters.


just wondering, name one or two that are really good, like MVP caliber players

Brian Leetch (D) is from Texas - a place that sees ice about 6 hours out of the year.  He won the Conn Smythe Trophy back in the early/mid-90's.\n\nPhil Housley (D) grew up in So. St. Paul, Minnesota.  I knew him personally.  His Dad and my Dad were in Vietnam together.  He is one of the best defensemen of all-time.\n\nI see what you're saying... hockey is a sport dominated by Canadians and other foreigners (players outside of North America).  Look at the Minnesota Wild.  Only one player, Brian Roloson, is from the US.  Hockey is Canada's national sport, and consequently they will breed a majority of the players in the NHL.


My boyfriend and I share a home together in which all the bills are split equally half and half. The problem is whenever things don't go his way he wants me to leave. He has said it so much that I can't take it anymore. He recently told me  to get out in front of company so that was the final straw so I have finally decided to leave but now he tries to make me look like the bad one by saying I'm putting him out by leaving because he can't afford to keep the place by himself. What should I do? I'm confused?

HI,reading your question makes my heart ache.first of all u should not be living with a boyfriend-at least our religion ISLAM does not allow it.try to find a husband instead.secondly do not take any abuse from him.leave him instantly.a man who does not care for u now would never do it even if u marry him.\nTry to stand on your own two feet-have dignity and cut all ties with him.sincerely wishing u the best.

In other words, I need to know how many terms there are between 3 to 373.

Are you including or excluding 3 and 373.\n\nIf you include 3 and 373 the answer is 186.  373-3 is 370/2 is 185 but since but end values are both odd you have to add one more.\n\nIf you do not include 3 and 373 the answer is 184.  Obvious enough take 2 away from 186.\n\nFor a clear example take the number of odd number between 3, and 9 included, then answer is then 3,5,7,9 which is 4 or (9-3)/2 then plus 1.

Well one thing second hand smokes does for me is it gives me migraines for hours and even days. I really don't think I should have to suffer when I do nothing in return. But smoke isn't the only thing that gives me really bad headaches other strong odors do too like perfume.


we have never met in person we live in two different states and when he came over to meet me a month ago we talk a lot over the phone but we never met as at the last minute he did  not confirm where to meet and he went back to his state.he was in my state to attend some friends wedding after that i got mad at him as he did not call and left city with out even letting me know.\ni almost stop communicating with him he saw me online and he told me he was sick so he left without telling me when his friends left, I did not beleive him .\nagain he send me emails and told me about his family dad sick and mom 's sick I beleived him this time and I called him only for couple of minutes ..since then he did not call me back and I miss him as he is the only one guy I found online who is on same wave lenght but worst part is since begginnig we get into some or other kind of misunderstanding.what do you think is this I am not sure ?I I am a very senseable mature person but in this case I don't know?

In REALITY, you don't even know this guy.Best to forget about him.He may be married or committed to someone else.Move ON!


some flowers are edible.  nasturtiums, for example, are great on salads, although they have fairly little taste.\nfruits are the ovaries of flowers.  the flower is pollinated, and the ovary starts to grow, eventually ripening into a tasty fruit.  most flowers won't hurt you much, although they might taste bad and make you a little sick to your stomach.


The story behind this is, my Ex and I were together for two years, he's in the Military and when he got back from Iraq, a month later he got orders to be stationed in Va, im in CA. He never talked about marriage, I did, and after he left I never heard from him. After he left I was devastated, and unknowiable pregnent. I made it through all of that on my own & being a single mother. While single I filed through the state, to look for him and to get child support from him. Well, two years later we finaly have a court date. And Im very happily married now to a wonderful man. My question is, should I go forward and get child support or just move on? By the way, my daughter is two now and my ex has only seen her once when she was 8 mths old. Personaily, I don't want his money, I just want my family.

1. Continue with the child support action.  \nSince you say it was filed "through the state" the only issues at trial should be (1) paternity and (2) the amount of child support. The child support will be retroactive to when the case was filed, and may be retroactive to the date the child was born.  \n\nIf your ex is still in the military your child support will come out of his pay and the military will send the check directly to you.  Your child will also be eligible for all dependent coverage, including medical insurance, medical care through military hospitals, beneficiary of your ex's life insurance, disability pay, death benefits, etc.  Talk to a JAG at the base closest to you and find out what these are.\n\nChild visitation will probably not be heard at the trial, the ex would have had to have filed a separate action asking for visitation.  Even if he did, or does in the future, he's not goinng to get much, if any, given he's not seen or supported the child in two years.  \n\nIn the eyes of your daughter your husband is "daddy", she does not need any paper to know that.\n\nAt some time, in six or eight years, you can, if you want, inform her that 'daddy' is not her bio father.  In ten or sixteen years, or after bio dad is out of the picture (e.g. he's out of the military and you can't find him) your husband can adopt the child.  \n\nOf course, seek advice from an attorney who can ask and answer more questions than this posting can.


I have heard many different things about this situation. I think it may have things to do with what state your in. I'm not quiet sure if this is rape of what??? What do you guys think?

Rape occurs when there is a 4 year or greater age difference between the 2 people. \n\nWhat would you do if you were pregnant?  Having a baby is very hard work, though it has its rewards.\n\nHere is a little exercise for you to do:\n\nTry waking up every 2 hours starting at Midnight. You have to stay awake for about 30 minutes then you can try to go back to sleep. Durning that 30 minutes walk around the house so you are good and awake. (this represents waking up to a screaming hungry baby, making a bottle, and 20 minutes of feeding) \n\nNow do that for 4 months. Thats about how long it takes for your baby to sleep "through the night". That means at some point between 9pm and 7am they will sleep for 4-6 hours straight. \n\nI know its hard when your young but you must think of the consequences of your actions.

My parents aren't going to help me with college at all financially (eventhough they always made such a big deal out of going to college). The so called money that they saved for me and my brother they have squandered on stuff for themselves. They have also stolen all the money that I have saved for college. I only make minimum wage and really can't afford it but I know I have to go or I will be working for minimum wage forever ugh! I have a very rich Aunt and Uncle in Florida that have always wanted me to come down and visit. But, my parents are jelous so they never let me. Should I go down to Florida and ask them for help? I've already applied for scholarships, they aren't enough. Until I am 24 I cannot claim myself as an independant on my Fafsa, so I have to claim my parent's income as well. What should I do?

Go to Florida, but don't expect a handout.  If you learn how to WORK, there will always be a good paying job waiting\nfor you.  It seems so simple to my generation.  How do we get this through to the younger generation when they have examples such as this guy's parents.  Wow.

i think aj got what he deserved he is a little trouble maker and can't back up his shit.it was ok to knock barrett of the plate but to hit him again with his shoulder he was asking for it

AJ was 100% within his rights to knock Barrett over even though he didn't have the ball.  It's covered in the official baseball rule book, and it happens all the time.  And he didn't hit anyone with his shoulder, he was going straight for his helmet which had come off in the collision and landed behind Barrett.  But Barrett was too interested in fighting to notice.\n\nWhat is NOT allowed by the official rules of baseball, is sucker punching someone who just beat you and scored a run on you.  There is NEVER a reason to assault a fellow competitor on the field of play.  Barrett let down his team and he let down his fans.  He deserves a big fine and a nice long suspension so he has time to think about his reprehensible and unaccaptable behavior. \n\nI haven't seen SportsCenter, has he even apologized yet?


skin rash was painful and itchy.  went to emergency room, doc. gave me a steroid shot and prescription for atarax for 30 days, what does a hypnotic drud have to do with a skin rash?

Atarax (also known as vistaril) is great for things like hives.  It doesn't have as many side-effects as Benadryl and can be taken for a longer amount of time.  Seems to work faster too.\n\nMy brother and I both have severe allergies and keep it on hand as well as the emergency epi-sticks.  Sometimes when you have a severe rash and take Benadryl your blood pressure will bottom out (causing you to faint), but that's less likely with Atarax.\n\nGood luck!\n\n   \nGENERIC NAME: hydroxyzine \nBRAND NAMES: Atarax; Vistaril\nDRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine with anticholinergic (drying) and sedative properties that is used to treat allergic reactions. Histamine is released by the body during several types of allergic reactions and -- to a lesser extent -- during some viral infections, such as the common cold. When histamine binds to its receptors on cells, it causes changes within the cells that lead to sneezing, itching, and increased mucus production. Antihistamines compete with histamine for cell receptors; however, when they bind to the receptors they do not stimulate the cells. In addition, they prevent histamine from binding and stimulating the cells. After ingestion, the molecule of hydroxyzine is changed slightly, and this changed hydroxyzine that also binds to cells. (This changed hydroxyzine-called an active metabolite--is cetirizine (Zyrtec), which is now an FDA- approved drug.) Though both hydroxyzine and cetirizine act as antihistamines, hydroxyzine causes sedation as a side effect, and cetirizine does not. Hydroxyzine was originally approved by the FDA in 1957. \n\nGENERIC AVAILABLE: yes \n\nPRESCRIPTION: yes \n\nPREPARATIONS: Tablets: 10mg, 25mg, 50mg, 100mg. Capsules: 25mg, 50mg, 100mg. Syrup: 10mg per teaspoonful (5mL). Suspension: 25mg per teaspoonful (5mL). \n\nSTORAGE: Capsules, tablets, and liquids should be stored below 30°C (86°F). Liquid should not be frozen, and should be shaken well prior to each use. \n\nPRESCRIBED FOR: Hydroxyzine is used for the relief of nasal and non-nasal symptoms of various allergic conditions such as seasonal allergic rhinitis. Although antihistamines are the preferred class of drugs in allergic rhinitis, they only reduce symptoms by 40-60%. Hydroxyzine also is used as an aid for insomnia and to induce sedation prior to certain uncomfortable diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. \n\nDOSING: Hydroxyzine has its maximal effect about 30 to 60 minutes after it is taken. Its effects last for 4 to 6 hours. Therefore, it is often prescribed to be taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed for relief of allergy-related symptoms. When used to combat insomnia, it is prescribed to be taken 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime as needed. Patients over the age of 60 years are especially sensitive to the sedating effects of hydroxyzine, and the dose should be reduced. Hydroxyzine can be taken with or without food.


Isn't it true that all wisdom of the ages hinges on this fact?


I would like suggestions for the best condom that is used for anal sex.

Choose a latex condom with a water-based lubricant.  Trojan condoms are the most trusted brand.


imagine the luxury enjoyed by western countries ? they are gotten cheaply from africa. there is the need for redistribution of world's wealth among the nations.

Read a book called Guns, Germs, and Steel or get it on video if you're lazy.  Basically the author of this book explains how geographic and climactic factors favored agriculture in Europe as their society evolved, this gave them a head start towards modern society.  Africa's climate continues to be less favorable for agriculture and industry.  And in many places their social structure remains focused on survival rather than "progress".  Thats not the whole story, but its a big piece of the puzzle.
