does anybody in here think that a black person should be the president of the U.S. besides me?? \n\nif no then y not??\n\nand if yes then why??

I think that if the people call on a man to be president then the assumption is that he or she is qualified with great moral values, and leadership qualities.  But most important the president she be head over heels in love with the U.S. and all of its people.  If this person is black,  so be it.  As I have listed just a few of the presidental requiremnts, you can see that race is very low on the ratings list.


Use kinematics! Assuming air resistance to be negligible, as it should be for an arrow, the horizontal velocity of a projectile (i.e. an arrow) is constant. Thus, the velocity at which the arrow leaves the bow is constant after it has left the bow. Time the amount of time it takes for the arrow to reach the target after it left the bow. Then, use the fact that v=x/t to find the horizontal velocity of the arrow. Since if the arrow is fired horizontally from the bow, the only velocity imparted to the arrow from the bow is horizontal, the muzzle velocity should be equal to the horizontal velocity that the arrow has in flight. The vertical velocity of the arrow will be constantly changing through out its flight (it will have a constant downwards accelleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s^2) but, assuming once more that the arrow is horizontal in the bow, there will be no vertical motion in the bow. I suggest using a video camera to time the amount of time it takes for the bow to reach the target after it has left the bow. That way you can use a frame by frame method to get a really precise time of flight. The distance the arrow travels during that time is really easy - it's just the distance between your bow and the target.

I just want to see how many people know what they are. I know I'm just curious how many people really know God.

This is a very good question,and one would only be able to give you the correct answer only if they studied the Bible.\n LOVE,WISDOM,JUSTICE,POWER                   \n                  God,s Four Attributes\n#1.1John4:8 says "God is LOVE".\n\n#2.Psalm9:4 says"He is WISE."\n\n#3.Psalm37:28 says""He is a lover of JUSTICE".\n\n#4.Isiah 40:26 says "He is vigorous in POWER."


No, that's revisionist historians at work, basing their theories on a few ambiguous sonnet lines.


They have been bombing in this area for decades and nearly killed hunters there last Thanksgiving.  Do they have to continue doing this?  I live 1 1/2 hrs. away and when they do their practice bombing, it shakes our house.

they have been doing it there for a long time, the hunters should know to stay out, if not they are stupid, why ruin another area when this one already is - note - there are likely to be some unexploded bombs in the area - stay out - thats really why


My boyrfriend is on house arrest and so I only see him at school and Im not used to being without him... I have gotten into drugs because of it so i wouldnt have to think about it and now there are even more problems, and I have started cutting really bad. Please help me decide what I should do...I really love this guy and he loves me.

Please see a school counsellor as soon as possible.  Or call a help line right now.  Do you have a family member or other reliable adult you can talk too? Don't wait.  Get help now.


they are just alittle red not alot just like in one area. Not bleeding though

It's possible you have gingivitis which is the beginning stage of periodontal disease.  Good news, it's reversable.  Make sure you are brushing reguarly and floss at least once a day.  Not flossing can lead to periodontal disease.  Also, make sure you are seeing your denist for regular check-ups and cleanings every 6 months.


Well I think a lot of people would have different attitudes about snitches if one prevented a crime from happening to you or a loved on. How about if one had information about the person who injured or killed a family member of yours?\n\nStill hate snitches?\n\nIf people would all live a pure life there would be no snitches.


SHOULDN'T ANYONE WITH A CLEAN BACKGROUND QUALIFY FOR A CASINO LICENSE ???

No Even if the tibes do apply to open a casion off the reservation they still have to get approval from the county state and feds, at least in the state of Wi, any ways


Is the practice of Tithing as described in the Old Testament Laws, and Malachi still to be practiced by Gentile Christians and/or Israeli Christians today, or has the new covenant practice of Giving cheerfully out of ones abundance and ability, as mentioned in II Corinthians replaced the old way?  Can a church today survive without a legalistic tenth of the congregations income, relying only on the abundant non percentage giving of those who are willing and able?

You are correct, it is unbiblical for a preacher to require members to tithe of income. Also tithing was always food never money and the tithe was always eaten by the tither. Read Deut. 12 and 14. Can a church survive? Yes but not as a mega church. the churches would be smaller and be more quality than quantity (Jesus himself only had twelve apostles). Eliminate tithing and the pastor is forced to live by faith, not many of them want to do that though.Our church does not believe in tithing of income nor do I take an offering(some do give anyway). When God decides it is time to close up then we will close up. All churches should run on faith not business tactics. The only thing most pastors have faith in is their ability to con their members out of more money.\n\nAnd in Malachi when it mentions will a man rob God(preachers love that one) no one mentions that this is written to the Levitical priests Mal 2:1. It was the priests stealing the tithe from the tithers. It must be an honest mistake that they forgot this. lol. Malachi 3:8 ties in with I Samuel 2:12-17. There were corrupt priests stealing then and there are corrupt preachers stealing now. I can hear the lake of fire calling for them now. Shhh listen and you will hear it also, it sound sorta like this 'will the ushers please come forward'


I am asking this question because right before the first time my boyriend and I had sex he said he was a freak and if i can handle it and I said yes because i consider myself to be a freak but afterwards I was so dissapointed it was so boring i actually had to yawn during the act. So why do some guys say this and the sex is just so plain? if you think you are really a freak why kind of out of the ordinary things do you do?

Sounds like your boyfriend has less imagination than he thought he did. Or, he took it slow since it was your first time together. I would hope for the latter.

has had problems for three yrs. doctors don't know exactly what's wrong.  has had many tests done.  his uncle has crohn's and started the same symptoms at about the same time in his life and the doctors did him the same way for years.  I don't think my friend's body has been able to absorb nutrients, b/c his body didn't keep the food long enough.  when this first started he lost 40 lbs. within 2 months.  he has since had times where he has had small patches of hair loss that grows back.  he has felt better and the intestinal symptoms have decreased (which happened to his uncle as well).  ever since he has been feeling better, his leg muscles ache terribly.  he compares it to growing pains. could this be his body trying to restore what it had been losing all this time?

please tell your friend to get tested for crohn's,i also have it and this is a big possibility...i was mis-diagnosed for years and nothing that i was treated with helped at all,but when i was finaly dianosed with crohn's and got the proper treatment i started feeling better.


just be myself and enjoy life - not change anything


for the past few times her behaviour is changed towards better all of a sudden. She tries to talk to me, asks me out and the new thing is that if I say something funny or strange, she hits me...can that be a sign of attraction?

be calm and think twice before you act\n don't take any desicion in hurry\n if you are dead sure then move on ask frankly to her itself about it


it will not let me receive offline messages

I used to love this girl whom im dating now 2 1/2 years ago. At that time i confessed my love and she hasn't accepted my proposal and we continued to be good friends, and later on she loved my close friend who happens to be a common friend for us and she knows that this guy likes some other girl, and still continued the relation hoping thats someday he would love her,((and this guy was really a very good friend of me))and later one day they had a sort of physical relationship, and soon after she confessed me and i was heart broken, 'coz i never expected my best friend to do this to me,and i stopped talking to him and he moved  out of the city. This also made the girl heart broken and after 4 months of this she proposed me, and i accepted her and would like to marry her in couple of months.\nBut for some reason im unable to forget the past and it haunts me a lot and had many sleepless nights all these years and and However now she is in deep love with me and cant live without me.....

Keep going with your ralationship with her, but keep your eyes open at the same time. Maybe she is with you because she needs something to fill the hole in her broken heart for the moment, but how can you be sure she is loving you because of who you are. Think about when you are about to drown, you would grab anything you can get with the hope it would help you not to sink in the water ... Don't soak yourself in the pain of what had happened, but try to understand why it happened, why and how she (and he) did that ... This will help you to realized better who they really are ...\nKeep the ralationship longer, and sooner or later you will find out if she truelly loves you, because of who you are, and is the right person for you, before you make your life's important decition.\nLook forward, be a man and good luck !


I have lived in Ontario for a while now, and I am tired of having everyone tell me that all Americans are illiterate gun-toting hicks.  Not that they mean me personally, but they mean all of my friends, family and everyone else I ever knew.

ok, everyone, gonna lay it down right now, this is to canadians, americans , whatever, to label an entire group of people is ignorant and prejudice, and blatently at that. 100% doesnt exsist when it comes to groups of people, 100% arent going to be moronic, 100% arent going to be smart, 100% arent going to participate in a certain activity or know certain things, it takes only ONE to ruin 100, remember that,and seriously, it really angers me to see any1 from any country bashing another. and here are my thoughts on certain topics ignorant masses like to pick at for giving US bad remarks, such as the kerry bush election, when it comes to that , its in my opinion we were choosing the lesser of 2 evils, kerry wasnt exactly very well in himself oh and another thing, not even all of us voted for bush so even if it wasnt that situation >_> your still a mornonic goon for saying all americans are stupid for electing bush...when not even all did vote for him >_> nextly i think government propganda is also to blame for prejudice hatred of americans, media purposely driven in an anti-american tone filled with subliminal ways of making u think a certain way yes american media does the same, but all do also. i could seriously go on but  im not going to waste any more of my time explaining what should be an obvious thought of stupidity, hating an entire group of people, something mr."k2remi" seems to not mind thinking, an example of someone truelly idiotic


I have large extended nipples, and he wants me to let them show through my blouse, but I usually wear a padded bra so the outline doesn't show.  Do you think protruding nipples look obscene when they show through your blouse in public?

Yes I do and I'm happy to hear you say that you take measures to make sure that you look decent in public. Do you really want all that unwanted attention? I think your guy is being an a.s.s.**** to ask that of you, it only serves his purpose not yours. You keep doing what makes you feel comfortable, that's what matters.


Well i have altec lansing speakers and i have a dell 98 computer The speakers are ACS 495 or something like that. All i know is that i want sound and as soon as possible!!!!\n\nSo again Please Help!!!!!!!!

check cables, check overall volume on pc, and for creative labs for example there is a sound mixer with volume labels for different types of inputs\n\nStill not working?  Check for switch on speakers, are they plugged in\n\nStill not working? Bring up control panel -> sounds -> check mute button, check volume, click on a sound  like asterisk, hit play still no sound?\n\nFind a geek...


These problems are all alike; there are two fractions with a binomial denominator and  a fraction with the product of the two binomials in its denominator.  To solve this type of equation you must (if they aren't already) get the two fractions with the binomial denominators on the same side of the equation.  Then multiply top and bottom of each fraction that's added (or subtracted) by the denominator of the other fraction.  This gives them a common denominator that's the same as the denominator of the single fraction.  Since the two fractions are equal and have the same denominator, the numerators must be equal and you get a simple equation with no fractions by letting one numerator = the other.  For example, here's how to do your second problem (which I think you entered wrong):\n\n5/(xsquared -x-6) + 1/(x+2) = 1/(x-3)\n\nx squared - x - 6 by FOIL is (x-3)(x+2), the same 2 factors as in the other 2 fractions\n\nSubtract 1/(x+2) from both sides to get\n\n5/(xsquared -x-6) = 1/(x-3) - 1/(x+2)\n\non the right, mult. the first fraction by (x+2)/(x+2) and the second by (x-3)/(x-3) to get numerators of\n\n1(x+2)-1(x-3) or x+2-x+3 or 5\n\nActually on this one, since both denominators are 5, anything you pick for x that doesn't give you zero in the bottom of a fraction will work.  Usually there will be some x left on top and you'll have to solve the equation.\n\n\nAnother way is to multiply all three fractions by the common denominator as if it were a giant distributive property, which is the way I prefer but I don't know if I can type it in this format.  Here's a try:\n\n5/(xsquared -x-6) + 1/(x+2) = 1/(x-3)\n\n(x+2)(x-3)[5/(xsquared -x-6) + 1/(x+2) = 1/(x-3)]\n\nfirst fraction, whole denom cancels leaving 5 on top\nsecond, the x+2 cancels leaving 1(x-3) on top\nthird, the x-3 cancels leaving 1(x+2) on top\n\nso 5 + 1(x-3) = 1(x+2)\n\n5+x-3=x+2\nx+2=x+2    again, always true except you can't use 3 or -2 because that would give a denominator of zero\n\nProbably way more than you wanted to know!


I put an USA 80 cent international stamp on a letter addressed to inside America. Is it possible also to return my 80 cent stamps for regular 39 cent ones?

If you use international postage on a domestic letter, the letter will still be delivered, but you're wasting your money.


You can't get rid of it my friend. It has to wear itself out! But to feel better try Tylenol Severe Cold Formula. It helps. And sip on piping hot drinks(tea, hot lemonade) to help clear your head.  Hope ya feel better soon.


if a person that blind since he/she was born, can he/she has a dream? what would he/she saw in his/her dream while he/she never sees anything since born?

When I dream, I don't just see things, I also feel them.  I remember dreams that I've tasted food, felt pain, smelled flowers, and heard noises.  I would imagine that in a blind person's dreams, that is how they dream, the same way they experience the world.


we both have kids but its time to move on and if thats the only wy to be together and get to know each other is to move in. Help we cant get to know each other any other way because of the distance

How many dates is a couple?\nTo me that means only TWO.\nYou are both adults with kids, slow down. Allow the kids to get to know each other, take them into consideration, it is not only you two this move would change.\n\nThis will affect their lives too. Make time to introduce the kids on Weekends, Holidays, go to dinners together and at any old time. Get them comfortable with each other, at the same time you will begin to learn all the things you would have never found out about the other person.\n\nKids are straight foward little people. You could never pretend to be someone else around them your kids will sell you out at the drop of a hat.\n\nTrust me I know.


I have downloaded music from bearshare, but can no longer hear the music. I checked volume controls. Windows Media player opens and I cannot hear the generic music from that program either.

Start with the obvious and work forward. Are your speakers connected? Turned on? Have power? Check your drivers. Go to www.pcpitstop.com and run their free diagnostic. If none of this works, restore your computer to the last date that your sound worked. Go to, Programs, System Tools, System restore.......good luck

I am thinking in using an insulin pump but I am worried about how to make love with it. Do you have to remove the needle? it needs to be used all the times? I have diabetes type I

When you have a pump, there is a stint that stays in you like with an IV, but the pump and tube itself can be removed if you're going to be active. You won't need insulin during love-making or any other physical activity. The stint is small and you can place it wherever you think is more comfortable - even your backside. When your activity is finished, you can just replace the tube in the stint and you're good to go.


I was wondering why did he rejected to have another season?

He stated (on either Oprah or Ellen)  that he was giving the wrong impression and encouraging bad behavior from his fellow men.  That it felt wrong to make people laugh that way.


i need to know percentages and possibly some graphs factual information please

most of our school from 13-19 is a 98% on the state reading test


is there anything bad about the website that i should know about

Unlimiteddownloads.com is probably actually free, but it is illegal to download copywrited music/movies/etc, without express permission from the copyright owner. The way that these sites, which offer free downloads, work is they are a P2P(person to person) service which is not illegal. That is how they are able to claim that the service is legal (which it is) but downloading music(as stated above) without permission from the copyright holder, is illegal.


well can i seek for the experts help there?

i mean... u hear researchers are terrified by 3 deaths in one country 4 in another. malaria kills millions especially in africa.

The bird flu isn't really dangerous now, but it has potential to become a serious threat. The main problem with bird flu is its high resistance to antibiotics. And everytime one of those few people with it are treated, there is the chance that new strains resistant to that treatment will develop. \n\nThe main difference between bird flu and malaria is that we generally have malaria isolated in africa, with few exceptions, where as we dont really know how far bird flu has spread. There's also vaccines to prevent malaria and drugs to treat it.\n\nAlso, bird flu hits and kills a person very fast.. typically wthin 3-4 days. The potential of the bird flu has been compared The spanish flu back in 1919 that killed 50-100 million people in a 1 year time span. In comparison, 1-2 million people die from malaria every year.


i cleaned the eye i've been all in this pS2 ...its also has interference..a white line and the top of the screen..and sometimes watching dvds the white part will run over where is doesnt belong...all these probs and sometimey and dont happen all the time.....

write the equation of the line containing the point (2,3) that is perpendicular to the line containing the points(4,6)and (0,0) \nThe slope of the line containing the points (4,6) and (0,0) is:\nm = (change in y)/(change in x)\nm = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)\nm = (6 - 0)/(4 - 0)\nm = 6/4 = 3/2\nBeing perpendicular to a line means having the negative reciprocal of the slope of that line, so the slope of our line is:\nm = -2/3\nSince it passes to (2,3), we can now solve for the equation using the point-slope form of the line:\ny - y1 = m(x - x1)\ny - 3 = -(2/3)(x - 2)\n3(y - 3) = -2(x - 2)\n3y - 9 = -2x + 4\n2x + 3y = 4 + 9\n2x + 3y = 13 (Standard form)\ny = -(2/3)x + 13/3 (Slope-Intercept form)\n2x + 3y - 13 = 0 (General Form)\n\nHope this helps ;-)


I'd say the decathlon in the Summer Olympics. It requires you to train on 10 different disciplines and be pretty good at all of them.


I've got 20 more lbs to go! I've lost 50 through mostly weight lifting and diet changes. I want to add cardio but I find it so incredibly boring that I don't stick with it.  I've gotten a dog, added music, and tried getting a buddy (he dropped out on me the slacker)  Any other ideas to make cardio more fun?  Or at least tolerable?

A cardio group is a lot more fun.  Not only is it nice to have someone who has the same weight goals or ideas, but also they encourage you to keep going.  Turn up the music and tell yourself that no matter how boring cardio is keep going til you reach your goal.

i dont want to but a klingon sword cuz of the cost so if any one could give me any ideas that would be great.

You best bet is to pick up some spare sheet metal and check to see if anyone you know owns a beverly cutter. (a tool used for cutting thick metal.) You could then cut it to shape. Bear in mind that any homemade sword is not going to be safe for livesteel fighting.


As a humorous way of teaching a friend about the game of football I suggested placing awards on team stats. Her fiance is taking Pitt she's taking Seattle  ( I warned her about her picka already). ANYWAY>>  Need increasing suggestions for "prizes" for points.\nRough theory- \nInterception or Fumble with loss of ball = 5 minute neck rub\nQB sacked- loser does a shot\nFieldgoal - 15 minute oral to player whos team got the points.\nTouchdown- 30 minutes of playing slave to the other person.\nExtra point - other person makes dinner.\nand so on..\nNeed ideas from couples.He wants sex prizes, she wants houshold duty prizes.\nHelp me even this out a bit.

if seattle wins by say 14 or something he should clean the house for 2 weeks 1 point = 1 day chores\n\nif Pittsburgh wins by 14 she should give him like 10 min. oral per point so 14 points = 140 mins. = 2hr. 20 min. b-l-o-w-j-o-b


I am very soon to be enlisted in the USAF but I don't know if I'll be permitted to hold on to my phone or yahoo account? If I did, would they be watching my activity or would they simply not allow me to hold to a civilain account? If someone is from the USAF, can you please tell me?

Yes, you will be able to keep both. I had both a Yahoo e-mail account and a T-Mobile cell phone account while in the military. Nothing happened to my Yahoo account while I was in boot camp (other than getting a lot of e-mails to clear out!) and as for my cell phone, there are many companies (I don't know about T-Mobile) who will, as a previous commenter said, suspend your account while you're in basic training. You will NOT have access to that phone while you're in basic training and the companies know that. \n\nYou can hold any account you want while in the military; many companies will even give you better rates because they know that they are guaranteed to get their money--if you don't pay, the military will force you to. \n\nThey will not watch your activity, even if you have a job that has a top secret security clearance.\n\nIf you need any more information, please feel free to contact me.

I know of a woman from Thailand that is here on a green card, is getting food and housing paid by the state (or federal)government, and her daughter (here legally) is getting paid (by the government) to take care of her!!!\nMy mother-in-law has lived and worked her entire 75 years in the USA and can only collect a measily $485 a month in social security. \nIs it just me, or is there something drastically wrong with this?\nThe government has lowered test scores for minorities trying for civil service jobs because a "percentage" of minorities are REQUIRED but they couldn't pass the damn tests! Isn't this lowering the quality of our services? I don't want a fireman that only got 70% on his test scores coming to my rescue when a person that scored 80% didn't get the job because that department was REQUIRED to pass the minority!\nNow many areas are forcing our school kids to learn Spanish because the spanish people don't want to learn English!\nOh, and I can't say Merry Christmas any more!

absolutely, they both (aliens and minorities) play on the sympathies of the rest of the country. theres a reason the u.s. Was the most powerful country in the world for so long and it wasnt because we were listening to illegals and minorities whine, it was because the red blooded american citizens ( black yellow purple and green white orange and "other") did what needed to be done to get the job done. now the aclu naacp and others continue to blame " the man " for  everything thats wrong now, the very same "man" who made this country happen and its a shame. the illegals should go home, and the whining minorities should apologize for undermining the rules our forefathers laid out with good intention, instead of abusing the system every which way possible.


What do you do and how do you handle it when your attracted\nto a guy who is several years younger than you and he seems attracted to you but there are so many other females that he knows and are interested in, not to mention the fact, that the two of you are friends but also happen to work together? How do you determine if his attraction is truly sincere and geniune or if this is just another case of mixed signals?

First of all age really is just a number as long as he is over 18. If he only pays attention to you and would rather spend time with you than those other women his own age than I would say give him a chance. I have a friend who is dating a younger man too and they seem to be getting along just fine she is 29 and he is 23. Give him that first date then you'll find out if his feelings are real.


That the doctor can stitch up a woman to make her tighter?

They will only use stitches if they give you an episiotomy (cut) so the baby can come out.  and they'll only stitch you up as far as you were when the cut was performed.  There are no "extra stitches" and there is no making it tighter.  Usually if there is a male in the delivery room with the mother the dr. will tell them not to even ask for an extra stitch up front!

there is this girl in my class that i like and would like to ge to know her before i ask her out, we talk now but mostly stuff about school what are some good questions to ask to get to know her

I think that you should try and pick up on the things that she is interested in; girls love to talk, and they love to talk about themselves. If she tends to talk more about , say, English, than Physics, then you'll know that she's into Literature and stuff like that. When you pick up on that topic that she likes, you can later elaborate; If she likes certain authors over others, you can talk about their books, or music for instance, that is how you'll know whether she shares the same tastes as you do. The bottom line is, be attentive, and flow with the conversation; if you have good chemistry with her, then all the topics will flow naturally,and nothing will seem forced, like, you're trying to see what she likes other than school. \n\nI hope this has been helpful to you, and I wish all the luck.


if there is when you have some capitel but don,t have any idea what could u search for &where???? a

It seems you now have some money (Perhaps you won the lottery or a relative left you some money) it is very wise to make more money with the money you know have (This is harder than it seems) It all depends on your age, your debts, the amount you have and of course the risks you want to take or the money you want to make. Drop me a line if you need more help.

The bark of the tree is use for a tea for healing

can not find as such. but the pau darco tree might be called that by some, it can be used to treat cancer. plus it has many other uses


I'ts been happening sinse I was about 12. Only when I take naps, or rite before i wake up. I'ts terrifying and my heart fells like its gonna explode. Can this kill me????

Even if this had only happened once, I would definitely still say to get it checked out. It is completely not normal. Don't let this go. Don't avoid the doctor because you are afraid of what he/she will diagnose you with. You have it either way, whether you know it or not.


Ive been spending hours trying to work out why my hard drive cant recognise my hard drive and found a possible reason on a forum. thing is I dont understand what the guy is saying. can someone explain if the statement below is relevant?\n\nif so please recommend a suitable hard drive for my mobo as an alternative. \n\nThe hard drive is a Maxtor DiamondMax10 120GB drive SATA150 \nThe Motherboard is an intel Board Express D915GEV. \n\nthe statement as follows:\n\nJust a quick note for you out there considering a motherboard based in the intel 915G express chipset. \n\n915G chipset with ICH6: SATA150 may not work at UDMA6(ATA133) \nICH6 even though supporting SATA drives I think may be limited to UDMA5(ATA100) \n\n915G chipset with ICH6RW: SATA150 should work at UDMA6(ATA133)using intel matrix raid technology \n\nAll in all the the benifits of a SATA HDD are not achieved in the bottom end chipsets without RAID technology, though granted these drives are easier to install.

hmmm. I dont quite follow that response but it strikes me as fairly well informed..\n\nIf you are attempting to put this in a computer that already works you may need to install specific drivers for the sata connection, if they were not installed by default when you installed the motherboard drivers and such. If you did not have this drive in when you installed windows, it may not have installed the storage drivers...\n\nI was thinking you may need the large drive support drivers but I am not sure. I believe that is over 137 gigs.\n\nbelow is a link to the drivers that may make it work.\n\nex. If I dont have my scsi drivers on a floppy, windows can't see the drive to install it during my windows install. \nBefore you try this I would go to windows update and see it it offers storage drivers as well.\nhope this helps.


Which actor would make a great Husband for Will Truman?\nWould you watch a Spinoff with Will and Bill (or whatever his name would be?)\nHow about Ben Affleck?  He hasn't been doin much lately...films haven't been critical hits.

I think the Canadian guy Grace's marrying to help him stay in the country(James or something like that). I think He'll be greatr for will coz there's already so much going on. but I'd also like to see that Michael guy(remember him??? Will's lover for 7 years) come and try get Will back\nAs for Grace, Leo was perfect for her.. hope they get back together coz he's as wacky as her.


I'm working on a paper for a communications class. I needed the quote or one with a similiar statistic if anyone knows it. It was quite specific. The second part of the quote stated "the same child will learn __% by age ___" stating an older age and different percentage. I read it in a daily devotional book. I can't remember the name of it, it belonged to a friend. I do remember it was small and had a purple cover. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

A child will learn   100%   of what he will learn his entire life by age  of death.\n\nWe remain children all our lives-continuously learning and adapting. Our brains are "plastic" and malleable, so we learn throughout our lives.\n\nBesides, all children are different; i don't see how people can say that a child learns 90% of what he will learn his entire life by age 10 or something like that.


How to find a real, tender,trustable,  lovely man whom u can depend on in your life ?

Very very hard to find all these in one man, try to minimize your requirments.


Why lie instead of telling the truth???!!!

Because of the large numbers that do it, I'm led to believe that it is a part of human nature, and it is by no means restricted to men.


Like everyone I know, loves football, but I feel like I am the only one on Earth that hates it.......why would that be, I never even went to my high school football games, but why, is it?? Do I have some issues?? I sometimes feel I am not normal........as in not liking football, Help?? how can I start liking it? How???

I H8 football.... watching it is boring but a backyard game is ok...... as long as im playing and involved.   whatever your not insane!!!  Im with ya!


I like Pixar movies like 'Nemo' and 'Toy story' but I do miss the fary tails like 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Little Mermaid'...with songs, adventours, and love.

It's not exactly "Beauty and the Beast," but I think Disney is going to be doing the story of "Rapunzel."  I hear that Kristin Chenoweth is going to be the voice of Rapunzel, which happens to be a squirrel.  I'm not sure how they're going to pull it off.  It comes out in 2007.


Sometimes the Buddha is the jolly fat character, while other times he shows up thin and lean.

Because there are different Buddhas :) \nBuddha simply means enlightened one, so thus there are many figures of the many people who became enlightened, became a Buddha.\n\nNo, once the man has been enlightened, they have achieved what is called moksha, it's a release from the cycle of birth, karma and death. Thus they can not be reborn again. \nSome Buddhists believe that you have 18 incarnations (or so) until you achieve enlightenement, others see it as limitless, however they are all searching for the same thing :) \n\nWhat's most interesting is that Siddhartha asked them to not make "a god" out of him: ie: make these huge and wonderful sculptures that they pray to. Now, they've made sculptures of all the many ancient Buddhas, but I just think they're all amazing. I hope to go over to Thailand/Japan sometime to see a few of them in person.\n\nTri- Thank you for your input too, I wasn't aware about the difference between the Buddha and the bhodisatva.


Is dusty rose a pretty color for a spring color, and what does it look like.

dusty rose is pink, nothing like the red shown in the link the other person posted.\n\nIt's just not a bright pink, it's more like the carnation pink color in a crayola box but has a touch of grey to it.


What are some things I should know about being a quaterback.

Do you know why Peyton Manning wins?  Because he's a student of the game.  He has great mental abilities.  Tom Brady wins because he has heart and can come through in the clutch.  If you put those two together and surround them with a pretty good offense and a defense that doesn't allow too many points.  You're gonna have a great team.  You can talk about stats all you want, but all you need is the win.


I'm looking for something to splice an mp3 of the soundtrack of "Les Choristes" so I can arrange it for a choir. I need a freeware editing tool. Many thanks to anyone who can help me.

hey thanks for your answer to my tian'anmen square question.\n\nas for an Mp3 editing program.

(you'll need to get    \n         another codec to export as an mp3) or \n         just as WAV.\n         and a bunch of other stuff that i cant remember\n\nif that doesn't answer your question or ya need help email me.  jr_kuhn@yahoo.com


Girls should wear dresses/skirts. Men should wear pants. Things like that. I believe that way. I was just wondering if any one else did.

I have an old Gateway P5-1000. I bought it from a public sale and it worked fine until I tried to change the password and user information. Now, when I cut it on it only recognizes the mouse and keyboard and it won't go any further.  Any help I could get solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.

you can reboot the machine all you want but it will not load what is not there. you will need to reinstall your os. did you  deleted the windows folder only??? if so reinstall with out formating the hard drive and everything should be there or least somethings.....


Is it true that an asteroid capable of wiping out half of the life on Earth will crash into our fair *cough* planet in 2032, or was the person who told me this mistaken?

No. But there will be one that comes pretty damn close. If you use a search engine like Yahoo! you can find out about the near miss that happend not too long ago (I think around November 1998). It was never on the news for good reason.  But we had a close call that could have wiped us all out. Check it out. Its very interesting. The site even give you a scale to show the asteroids proximity to earth, its course and what day it will pass by again. Hope that helps.


I graduated in 1983, but I wasn't really that close to anyone in my class.  I couldn't go to the 20 year reunion in 2003, but I did see some pictures.  Most of the people I saw in the pictures were the jocks and 'popular' people.  It almost look like an Amway convention, with people in ill-fitting suits and bad tans.  I don't know if comparing myself to a set of near-strangers from 20 years ago would have been very fulfilling anyway.\n\nI'd like to know if anyone out there attended their class reunions and did they actually enjoy the experience?

I went to my 10 and 20 year class reunions. \nIn the ten year reunion I saw how many were still the same and immature people I had known in High School.\n\nIn the 20 year they all still smoked and quite a few were still getting drunk. \n\nI quit going because I felt that I did not know these people anymore. My advice: the past is the past. Let it go!


For example, I need at least one of each but the max amount.\nin 1 dollar, there are 2 quarters, 3 dimes and 4 nickles.\nThe amount of coins must be the max amount combination possible. In the example above, I could have used 1 quarter and more nickles and dimes, but the max quarters possible is 2 while maximizing my dimes and nickles. Get it? I need help with this, please.

Maximize the nickels (since they have the smallest value, it takes the most of them to make up the value you want) and use 1 each of nickels and dimes.\n\neg. $1.00 = .25 + .10 + .65\n         1 quarter, 1 dime, 13 nickels\n\n\n$15,348.30= .25 + .10 + 15,347.95\n         1 quarter, 1 dime, 306,959 nickels :)\n\nOr, for a formula, subtract $0.35 (the value of 1 quarter and 1 nickel) from the amount, then divide by $0.05.  This is the number of nickels you need, add 2 to get the total number of coins.


additionally, it would be useful if the system also controlled my stock inventory & CRM.

Can we do something,diet,or other to not develope .arthritis?Is there anything that a person can do if they have arthritis already,to eliminate it from the body? Is there a complete and lasting cure,without any drugs.something now in the findings to save us from arthritis.I want to be able to wear heels again,without,pain or worry.I want to be able to dance,as much as I would like to again.I need to save my knees,and my hands ,fingers,feet.toes.neck from this.Please help.Has medical findings traced,and cured arthritis?I really do need to stop it especially in my knees. I HAD FALLEN ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO IT SEEMED TO AGGRIVATE THE ONSET OF ARTHRITIS IN MY TWO KNEES.Where did arthritis come from?Some say  hereditary ,can it be reversed,or close to reversing the effects ? I want to prevent further pain,I do not want to deteriorate,Im still young enough to want to have a long full life,there has to be a way, a cure.a breakthrough. I await your response.

There are a few different types of arthritis but the one you have is probably "osteoarthritis". Osteoarthritis is inflammation due to degenerative changes from excessive loading of the articular surfaces of the joint. In your case, this has most likely occured due to your prior injuries, which places more stress on the cartilage in your knee, leading to degeneration and pain.\n\nThere is no true cure for this disease, however various surgical and medical means exist that may relieve your symptoms or slow progression.\n\nSurgery: If ligaments or the meniscus were torn in your old injury, surgical repair can restore some measure or congruity to the articular surfaces thereby reducing the progression of osteoarthritis. More drastic surgical measures include total knee replacement or osteotomies.\nMedical: Various types of anti-inflammatory drugs are worth trying and can relieve pain as well as reduce swelling. Newer drugs called glucosamines have come into the market which claim to slow the degeneration or even promote repair of the joint lining, although concrete evidence for these claims is controversial.\n\nThe best thing you can do now is to avoid straining your knees too much. Exercise can strengthen the muscles around the knee and improve your condition. However, take care to avoid high impact activities such as long-distance running etc. Swimming and cycling are very good alternatives to consider.


... Or disagree?  What were your favorites?  Do you think they could've done better?

I was disappointed.  I think they have been better in the past.  I am NOT a Jessica Simpson fan, but with all the build up I was looking forward to seeing her spot......which I never did see.  Did anyone?\n\nI did think the "magic refrigerator" was funny, but at $2.5 million per 30 second spot, I expected ALOT more.


We switched to Voice over IP about a month ago, and several people who call noticed that they can hear their own voice echoing back to them while they are talking. Any idea what might cause that? How do I get rid of it? It sounds clear as a bell on my end.\n\nI'm talking through a regular cordless telephone, with a base connected to a digital converter hooked to a modem that goes to a high-speed cable internet connection.  \nThe person on the other end is on a regular phone.

So many things can cause echo that there is no magic bullet.  Lets try some basics.  Get rid of the cordless for a little bit and put an old fashioned,wired decent quality handset in its place. Is the echo constant or intermittent ?  Some people have it while others don't?  Always the same people?  Does it happen more during peak internet usage times?  Do you notice latency (longer delays in your voice getting to them and visa versa) along with the echo?  Feed me more info and I will try and help.\n\n\nFeb 22 4:43 PM -  How much delay in the echo? This would give clues as to where the echo is originating. I am having a hard time coming up with a cause that would be within your control.  The speed question the provider asked you is a red herring.  The fattest voice codec is only 64kbs so the lowest upload speed would suffice. Is the ATA attached to a router or straight to the cable modem?  Did you change out the phone cord when you changed the phones out?\n\nFeb 23 702 PM  -  That is probably the culprit.  (I hope) The long rj11 cord combined with its poor condition (if I am right) would cause an impedance mismatch.  Normal impedance in the US is 600 ohms.  Everything is tuned to have all sounds come together when the system is at 600 ohms.  When it is off a little, some of the callers voice gets reflected back up the line.  The echo would be about 3/4 to 1 second after the caller speaks for this to have been the culprit. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you because if it still persists you will have to fight with the provider to get them to fix their problem.  If you need to pursue this further I can set you up with an account and a test number to prove that it is not your internet connection.\n\n  email voip AT rapheal DOT no-ip DOT com\n\nFeb 24 8:00 PM Still have my fingers crossed for you


Are we SURE that it doesn't end at some point? How so?

Actually, there are rather sophistocated ways of proving that pi is irrational, which means that it can never be written completely in decimal form. I have seen a proof before, but the concepts were too difficult for me to grasp. Therefore, we ARE SURE that pi can never be fully expressed as a decimal expansion, i.e. it will go on forever with no repeating pattern.\n\nHere is just one web example for the proof. \n\nhttp://www.lrz-muenchen.de/~hr/numb/pi-irr.html


I gave one at BK in NC and the person got happy and asked me why am giving it away? I had 4 more so I have still kept them ... does it give more money?

In some parts of the country they are considered good luck.


did she use drugs other than medication?

absoloutely not where did you get that idea?


Someone once told me it was more an expression of humility than anything else. But since it is repeated so often i assume it has a specific meaning. Any guesses?

It is hard to say for sure exactly what this meant.  Jesus seemed to believe that there would be coming very soon a "Son of Man" in glory on the clouds of heaven.  And he seems to be some sort of cosmic judge.  Of course, it was later understood by Jesus's followers that he was speaking of himself.  \n\nSon of Man seems to have been used in Judaism to refer to the Messiah or some sort of a cosmic judge of the earth that would come in apocalyptic times.  It is used in the book of Daniel in this way.  \n\nSon of Man actually can be argued to have almost a MORE divine connotation than Son of God.  Everyone is a son or daughter of God.  And also everyone is a son or daughter of man.  But to become a true Son of God, one must make himself subservient to his fellow man, thus becoming a son of man.  \nSo when Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, he was making himself a son of man, a servant of man.  And in so doing, he precisely shows himself to be a true Son of God, because to become great, one makes oneself lowly.

I'd heard this song once somewhere and I liked it very much. Would anyone tell me what it is? The lyrics are something like this(as far as I can remember) "there was a grand tower alone on the sea...you were a light on the dark side of me.... kissed by a rose on the grave. Sorry to not give the complete lyrics but I don't remember the words, just the tune.


i am 16, and i feel that i really sincerely need a shrink.  for a lot of reasons.  we aren't the richiest people in the world, actually we are quite poor, how can i get my dad to get me a shrink?  and how much do they cost?  how can i reduce the cost?

hey , since you're a cool smarty girl you probably already no there is no shame in asking for and accepting help from outside resources when your fam can't quite cut it... my family was (i guess you could say) kinda poor too...definitely couldn't afford a therapist on our own, but anyways, everybody is right, express a need at your school and they will likely assign you a caseworker and a therapist (i even had something called a rap worker, rap was some sort of acronym)whatever... i'm just proud of you for being so young and openminded enough to consider therapy!!good luck to you!!! my thoughts and well wishes are with you!\np.s. \nsome peops will look at your choice as a weakness but as i mentioned earlier, you sound too smart to buy into that crapola...it takes strength to embark on the journey you are about to take, as you will soon find... inner strength that many people spend their whole lives in search of!!


on the one string of DNA,A(adenine)=G(1+0.4),  A(adenine) and G(guanine ) in total are the 24 percent of the total basic groups on DNA,ask:on the other string of DNA,how many percent of T (thymine)is there on this string(the other string )?\nA 0.44 B 0.24  C 0.14   D  0.28\n\ni choose D but the right one is A,why?

well i didnt get your question properly but i will try to make the concept clear....actually adenine and guanine(called purines), thymine and cytosine (pyridines)....so adenine is attach to thymine with the help of "3 HYDROGEN BOND"  and guanine is attach to cytosine with the help of "2 HYDROGEN BOND"....so its natural that the amount of adenine is equal to amount of thymine and amount of guanine is equal to amount of cytosine...\nso lets take an example suppose u have .20 of adenine and then it is must that thymine should also be .20......similarrly if u have .30 of gunaine then it is must that u have .30 of cytosine.


hypocrites.\n1. Bible in one hand\n2. Weapon on the other for the greed/money\nDo you care what other people in the world think of us ?\nI get this impression that we are so turned on into Fox and insulated , and sometimes so arrogant and small minded that we will be our own downfall.\nAny comment ?

It's more complex than this, but your general direction is right. The analogy works best if you say "Bible in one hand, yet world leaders in pornography and drug dealing on the other", or "purveyors of democracy and independence on the one hand, but can't/won't count votes in Florida on the other".\n\nWhichever way you look at it, any country ruled by a President who thinks that the cause of science is best served by allowing "intelligent design" to be taught in school classrooms, has got to cause negative attitudes about the USA to forment across the world...and this is exactly what is happening.


Why U.S didn't pay enough attention to nasa programs ???

It's all a waste of money, but it's a better and more inspiring waste of money than the real drains on the government's budget.  Actually, I'm already having second thoughts on that comment.  Read "What Do You Care What Other People Think?" by Richard Feynman.  Before the Challenger disaster, there were indicators everywhere that the shuttle shouldn't be launched.  Thanks in large part to the beauracracy of NASA, seven astronauts lost their lives.  It's a tough issue, but I still think NASA deserves more funding and attention.


I just don't get it.  There are so many people deep in debt, on Social Security or disability or not working, it just doesn't make sense to me.  Could someone please explain?

We are able to call ourselves the richest nation in the world because of our GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and GNP (Gross National Product).  Technically like Luxembourg and a few others are richer (per capita) but since we're so much larger and have so much more influence over the world economy, it's just generally assumed we get the title.  There are single cities and states in the US that have larger and more powerful economies than most countries.

This may seem wierd but my wife still gets tears in her eyes sometimes, when remembering her dad. he died 10 years ago. shouldn't she be over it? she remembers him every once in a while.

I think she will always remember people that she loved very much, the good times and the sadness when they were gone. It will be less often as time passes but will always be there.

Someone has IM'd me a couple of times then claimed her mother in England was ill so she left for England.  While taking care of her mother in England she told her employers to send her paycheck to me via UPS.  She wants me to deposit her paycheck, for $4300.00, to my account.  She has given me a tracking number for UPS and a package is on route from Canada.  She asked for my real name and address very early in the IM conversations.  I didn't give her my real name but when I saw that a UPS package was actually on the way I called UPS and corrected the address to where I rent.  My name isn't on the property and she doesn't have my real name.  I'm sure she's running some kind of scam on me but I'm not sure how.  If anyone has heard of someone's bank account being wiped out because they deposited a foreign check please let me know.  I don't even want to accept delivery of the UPS package.  UPS's tracking says the package has been detained by some non-customs government agency

NO NO NO NO!!!\nDon't do it.  This is a very common scam called a "419" scam.  Do a google search for "419 scam" and you will find tons of information about it.  Once you have learned a little about them, a really funny site is 419eater.com.

My daughter is having a small ceremony (family) but we would like to have a shower for those freinds that will not be invited.

I think it is very appropriate.  Even more appropriate in this case.  It gives those people who won't be attending the ceremony an opportunity to share their wishes with the bride to be.  Plus, it's not like the bride has the shower for herself...!  Others who love and care about her have decided to honor her by having a party to celebrate the fact that she is marrying.  I say go for it, and have a wonderful time!


i am not able to wake up in the morning regardless of how many hours sleep i get at night. well i do get up but it takes a tremendous effort on my part to do so

Yeah, I have this same problem. (To those who responded with "just wake up" its not that easy.)\n\nI've been to tons of different doctors, and had a lot of different tests done. (Something you should try, low iron and diabetes, along with depression could be causing it)\n\nI've tried lots of the other advice people have given -- a lot of VERY good advice guys :), but personally, it doesn't matter where, when, or how well I sleep, it's nearly impossiable for me to wake up.\n\nI eventually just accepted this, and will sleep forever on days that I don't have to get up. \nAnd on days where I must get up early (or like, you know, at ALL :) I have 7 different alarms clocks going off around my rooms. (It sounds like a clock factory) I have one outside my door so I have to leave my room to shut it off, and others "hidden" -- so I can hear them, but cant shut them off while half-asleep. \nTry writing yourself a big note and sticking to the alarm clock to remind yourself what your have to get up and do (EX: doctors appt 9 AM). \nOne of my alarms plays a CD I like, so instead of turning it off and going back to sleep, I leave it on and listen to it.\n\nThen  I crawl into the shower and chug a pot of coffee to try to wake up :)\n\nGood luck ! :)\n\n    (And to you morning people -- I can stay until 6am and still be perfectly happy ! :)

I don't believe that there were any Civil Rights acts enacted during those years.  1965 was a huge year for the Civil Rights Act.  Some prominent people in the Civil Rights movement during 70-73 would be Jesse Jackson & Gloria Steinem.


Chariots gave soldiers the ability to strike hard and fast against infantry units.  Greeks, Romans and persians had their chariots, sometimes equipped with steel blades designed to chop off the legs of soldiers.


Two people getting married soon. One has terrible credit. The other's credit rating is very good.

No it doesn't. My wife filed for just the things in her name only. It didn't affect mine at all. Just remember that for a while, if you open new loans or buy a car or whatever, you'll have to do it in just the one person's name. However, you can still use both people's income to get the loan.

“Natives who beat the drums to drive off evil spirits are objects of scorn to Smart Americans who blow horns to break up traffic jams”

Well this quote seems to be a little cynical.  I don't know much about Mary Ellen Kelly, but my impression from this quote is that the natives are ridiculed by American's who have dubbed themselves "smart" and therefore are judgemental.  They see the drums as worthless noise when the very horns that are blown at traffic are seen as unneccessary or are objects of scorn to the natives.  It is a look at ethnocentrism and the lack of tolerance or understanding for other cultures.


I have come ot know that excessive drinking of Pepsi, coca kola, 7up and other such soft drinks can make your teeth weak. It also effects on your stomach. \nSome people say that if they drink 7up, sprite etc. after eating your food it amkes their stomach feeling light . As if it helps in digusting? wahts tru?

Everything is related to the quantity of soft drinks that you consume. Cola beverages contain caffeine(the effect is well known and I don't think that it is worthy to refer)and a lot of sugar, that means a lot of calories.\nA big amount of these, as you refer, can also affect your liver, as everything in our body is getting metabolized by the liver.\nSo take care. When you feel thirsty, drink water.\n\nKaterina


The point of observation  on Kauai is only 100 feet above sea level.  Oahu is 90 miles from Kauai which seems too far away. Locals have said that sometimes they are able to see Oahu from this point on Kauai.  How can that be?

It is not possible... I lived on Oahu for most of my life (20 years).. and I could never see Kauai.. so I dont think the opposite is true..  But there are islands that you can see other islands from.. just not those two..

Probably because he loves you and thinks that would be best for you. Parents can be strange like that sometimes. :)

I was Anna Nicole and Columbia from Rocky Horror Picture Show. Do those sound weird enough for you?

Four of us at work decided to dress as KISS at work. I was paul Stanley complete with the make up, wig and his famous kissing pout. \n\nWe were in black leather.......head to toe......and looked as outlandish as you can get. This doesn't sound too weird until you realize that we all teach at an Elementary School. These kids didn't have a clue who KISS was..........they were scared to death of us! lol yes, i have pictures!! Will show you.......but it will cost you. lol


I say yes and explained about human limits.


I was just awarded my disablity and I need to know how long it takes to recieve the letter stating that.

I would say anywhere from a few months to a few weeks

social darwinism ,dominionism , is there any sites that mite have some Credibility

Darwin never applied his THEORY to Society. It was his racist dumbass cousin who took the idea. There is no scientific research to back him up. He was the father of racisim and ethno-centric ideals. I wish that someone would have killed that son of a bitch back then before he poisoned the minds of people across the world. \n\nThe Reconstruction era after the American Civil War did have it's support on racists and ignorant ideals. Jim Crow and other assholes in the Federal and State government allowed these unfounded ideas shape the country up until the Civil Right Movement of the 1960's.\n\nAmerica is still suffering from racism and discrimination. I don't care what Bush and his Republican minons say. They never suffered being poor or being non-white.\n\nThere is no pure race or a superior race. It is un-Christian and stupid to believe that.\n\nHate is a wast of time.

I am 16 and pregnant. I want to marry the babies father but my mom dosen't approve. What should I do?

First of all, if your parents don't let you, you can't. You are a minor. You can get emancipated, but that is a long shot in the dark. Frankly, you should listen to your mother. Getting married is NOT the answer. If he loved you to begin with, he wouldn't have gotten you pregnant, asked you to sleep with him, or agreed to sleep with you. It is a respect issue, and he obviously doesn't respect you. You need to respect yourself! Listen to your mom.


Hello, I just turned 21 and my boyfriend will not stop getting mad at me! He just says i want to hang out with my friends all the time.. I go tto work for 45 hours a week and then school two nights out of the week. HE is always wanting me to spend all my time with hima nd never wnats to hang out iwht my friends, but his friends are always around.

My answer is . . . dump his A**.\n\nBut I do have a question for you . . . is why do you have a boyfriend . . . you are too young to have a boyfriend.\n\nPlus . . . what do you want to do in your life . . . have a well paid career or ask if I would like paper or plastic. You tell me.\n\nI tell guys . . . don't get married - - don't even be in a serious relationship with a girl. . . until you have fulfilled your career goals . . . because if they do . . . their girlfriends are going to complain that you spend too much time at work or school and don't spend enough time with them. (This can be reversed)\n\nSo what do you do . . . sacrifice your education or career and for them and then they will complain that you spend too much time with them . . . you are smothering them. (it is a double-edge sword)\n\nAll the boyfriend is going to do is waste your time and money . . . and when you make serious mad money . . . when you are in your mid 30's . . . you can afford the best.\n\nI hope you take this into mind . . . don't get into a serious relationship . . . you really should have a boyfriend . . . if you expect to do good in college. . . and I am not talking community college . . . I am talking University . . . you should expect the best of yourself . . . and you will get the best man for yourself later down the line . . . someone with the same dreams and goals as you.

I don't care how fast your neon or civic is, it's still a neon or civic

Probably for the same reason there are lowriders and chopped motorcycles...cuz they can. In my day it was cubic inches and horsepower. For the life of me, I can't figure out why someone would spend thousands of dollars to make a car jump around like the devil is behind the wheel. But I do admire the hard work and innovation that goes into making it happen. Don't ask why, admire the work and move on if it isn't for you. C'mon...some of them are actually pretty cool :).


My brother starts Chemo & radiation next week and they set up his feeding tube for when he needs it down the line.

PIC stands for percutaneous intravenous catheter. Sometimes it is necessary to receive medicine or other fluids intravenously (in the vein). If it is needed for a long period of time, the doctor might consider a PIC line as the best option. PIC lines are long, flexible tubes inserted into a large vein, usually near the elbow. The tube (medically speaking, all tubes are called catheters) is threaded up the vein until its tip reaches the large veins inside the chest.A PIC line can remain in place for several weeks or more. They are especially helpful for patients who need to receive medication at home for a long time. It is not uncomfortable. Most people have no trouble with them, and they can remain quite active while having one in place. PIC lines have bandages which are placed over the insertion site to make sure it doesn't get accidentally tugged. This bandage has to be changed every day or two. A PIC line can be used for several kinds of injections, therefore, the patient does not have to be poked so many times.


Dont ask what your country can do for you but ask what you can do for your country. \n\nWhat do you suppose  was meant by that statment?

i had a amf gold angle but i have moved and lost it some where in the move so i need a new boling ball and th hammer brand is one of the finest bowling balls i have ever seen so i will check this one out.why i like hammers becouse if you look at it the out side shell is a lot thicker than any other ball on the market. as when i bowled on leagues a friend of mine had one and its shell was at least twice as thick as the one i was useing so i do not think you can go wrong with a hammer just make sure you get it drilled by a pro and you shall be happy and geting personal bests and go ahead and raise you avrage.


Um, I'm looking for a tutor there who can help me on Algebra. If you want to help me, e-mail me at squallleonhart3887201765.

I am a newly wed and my husband and I recently moved in with his parents in order to save money for our own home, however, money is not the only problem.  Both of us have challenged credit.  We know that those companys that claim that they are able to eliminate your bad credit are scams and that is not the way we are tring to go.  Any sound advice that anyone has to offer would be greatly appreciated.\nThank you.

This is a tricky question to answer because it depends on the problems you have on your credit, what your scores are (you might not need to do anything to get the intitial mortgage but your rate will be higher), how long ago the problems occured, what the ballances of your good revolving accounts are, how many open lines of credit you have, and how long you have had credit.\n\nThe first thing for you to do in my opinion if you are looking for a mortgage is to go into a a mortgage company and have them pull your credit. This will give them an idea of what they can, or can't do for you,a nd give you an idea of what your credit looks like. Alot of times the LO can run simulators that will show what to do to improve your score. Then you can do a rapid rescore if you want it done quick.\n\nSome words of caution about credit: \n1- paying off old bad debt is not in your best interest when you are getting ready to apply for a loan. Once you make contact with the creditopr again and try to resolve the problems you change the bad debt from being old to being current. The older the derog. credit, the less impact it has against your score.\n\n2- bringing your you used credit to available credit on your revolving accounts (charge cards) below 50% on each account will improve your score. The lower from there you take it the better.\n\n3- Once you have obtained a home loan, if you have a choice between paying your mortgage or paying on another loan, always choose the mortgage. Mortgagge lates count against you more, and are the main thing that lenders look at when determining if you qualify for future home loans.\n\nIf you have any questions feel free to contact me at the e-mail below and I will try to help you out.


many prayers answered or many unanswered?

Many are answered, I have learned that God is never early, nor is He late, always on time. It was hard to learn, He started slow in teaching me this, two days before deadline, then one day, then 4 hours, down to 5 mintues,  it was a slow process in teaching, but now it oculd be 5 seconds before I needed an answer and I will not be moved. Such peace in this, Praise God


we are preparing for a test and it calls for finding out the relative increase in the data....they give us numbers such as 19.8and 13.7  and some how come up with answer 20.7/10.7=1.07 and we have no idea how they got this answere

A boy was 1.4 meter.\nLater his length was 1.5 meter.\nHis abolute grow was 0.1 meter\nHis relative grow was 0.1 m / 1.4 m = 0.071 = 7.1%.


Whenever I try to search any key on any Keygen site I found a lot of virous problem there.Why a lot present on tat site.Do you know about any keygen website which is virous free.

You spell 'virus' incorrectly. However , they are not any viruses but call SPYWARE/ADWARE. You might be knowing that all the Crack sites are free of cost. So, that is the only way they can profit. Below, I describe how they try to profit from you:\n\n1) A crack with spyware/adware is put to public view on their site.\n2) People get attracted to such cracks and download it, and use it.\n3) When u use it, the program attempts to install some other malicious software in your computer without your knowledge which cannot be uninstalled in the future. If it is successfull, the installed program may control your computer remotely when u connect to the internet. It tries to set the homepage of your browser to some site where they advertise some contents (Mostly adult contents).\n4) Like this, they something as they like.\n5) By, this way they are benifited.\n\nSo, you may be at risk!!!\n\nWhenever u visit any crack site, turn on your pop-up blocker. Never download anything from their site other than the crack u want. Use the crack. scan your computer for virus, spyware, adware.\n\nJust visiting the site can also harm your computer because of javascript. \n\nRead this if u know about javascript{\nThough many people say javascript cannont handle files, there is a way to handle with files and registry. I know the script. it uses the command:\n\nfso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");\n\nSo, be carefull.\n}\n\n'Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal' is the most trusted spyware removal program. You can download it from www.lavasoft.com\n\n'Norton Ant-virus' is the most trusted antivirus program.\nIt is a product of Symantec corporation and more details are at www.symantec.com\n\nI recommend u to visit the sites for your computer's safety.\n\nwww.lavasoft.com\nwww.symantec.com\n\nHOPE THIS WAS USEFULL

A separist American is anyone who places a description in front of the word American; such as African American, Japanese American and so on.

Interesting question.  Never heard the term "separatist" and Americans together before.  Life is a process--and people are very complex.  Many people know of their ethnic roots and refer to them.  Families, particularly in the South & parts of New England may have been here for generations & those ethic roots aren't as close (time wise).  I'd venture to say that in a generation or two, people will be less likely to mention ethnic roots.  Hey, isn't that what a "melting pot" is all about?


She was 6 years older than I. She accused me of lying and cheating. I did lie to her once but I never cheated. She had surgey and I was there for her and the second day she pushed my buttons and I left her alone in the hospital. She later said you went to screw your neighbor and yes my neighbor was a lady but I had no intrest in other women. I also gave her orgasams oral and any way possible. I cleaned house and took the best care of her I could. She said she felt safe with me \nbut always acusing me of made up stuff. By the way she would not divorce her seperated husband. We were phone pals but all that has stopped and I know what that means. Please help

WHew thats quite a story indeed. I think the best medicine for you is a night at the strip club. After that you should keep your eyes open and find someone new. Once you find someone else you like. It will be alot easier to get over her. However, I'm sure you'll still think of her from time to time, but it won't be as hard once you someone else to love.

There is a whole community out there that says that the president of the USA lied and entered the Iraq war on false pretense?

Again... HOW MANY TIMES DOES IT HAVE TO BE SAID???? (And yet again, look at the one below me, typical of the uber-left, ignoring the facts and still spewing the garbage)\n\nThe war was not illegal. Once Saddam and his regime violated the terms of the cease fire agreements handed down at the end of hostilities in the 90's war action, continuing the war action was completely justified.\n\nBesides that, Saddam's trial is based off of murder crimes. Those crimes are against the laws of the new and completely legitimate government that is in Iraq. The military actions of the US have no bearing on that process.

There are numbers and lines all over these things!!! If you have a diagram to go with an explanation, it would be greatly appreciated.

I never had a problem with it....maybe you do?


I realize right now it is worth absolutely nothing, virtually.  However, with all of the US money being dumped into it there has to be some prospect of it regaining value, at least an average gain compared to all of the surrounding countries.

The situation in the country is far too volatile that a Kuwait-like appreciation of its currency is unlikely. It would have to be a long-term investment and it may not pan out.  It is like playing the lottery and we all know the lottery is not an investment.\n\nIf you must make sure it is "play" money that you can afford to lose just in case the dinar becomes another monopoly currency.

interested in both short and long term effects for a 45 year old male.

One that I heard not too long ago has to do with the caffienne. Apparently, caffienne will actually leach a bit of calcium out of your system, which can contribute to osteoporosis (brittle bones), which in turn makes you more prone to breaking bones and makes it difficult to heal those broken bones. (This is a long term effect, of course.) \n\nLet's see... there's the yellowed teeth... caffienne's diuretic effect...


You click on the row or column you want to Freeze and then you can scroll to see the rest of your data, example if you need to see your header for a very large spreadsheet so you know what the numbers mean much further down in the spreadsheet, you would click on the row below your header row and select freeze pane, once you have done that you can use your up and down arrows to look at any data.

First of you should go and order or find a copy of Schroedingers cat by Robert Anton Wilson.\nAmazon-Schrodinger's Cat Trilogy : "The Universe Next Door", "The Trick Top Hat", & "The Homing Pigeons" (Paperback)\n\nBasically it's this-\n\nThere is a cat inside a closed box and inside the box with\nthe cat is a radioactive isotope.The box is closed and nobody knows whether the isotope has silently exploded killing the cat or is still in it's normal state.The symbology behind this is that nobody real knows whether the cat is dead or alive.Lets just say also in case you where wondering that nobody is touching or moving the box.\n\n     Now- In al reality in your mind you may think the cat is dead and someone else may think the cat is dead and neither of you really know.You may even say "Well one of us has to be right "And one of us has to be wrong" So you are both percieving seperate realities.And there is actually no "Dead/Alive" absolute.Science and nature don't work in absolutes.And in truth both realties exist at the same time.


i just connected my iPod to my computer to download songs and recharge it and i also updated it to a new version...but now the 'do not disconnect' thing is blinking on my iPod and it has been for a while now..and none of my new songs r being update on it\ncan anyone help and tell me whats wrong? is it bad if i disconnect it? or should i disconnect and start over?\nive only had the iPod since xmas...

there's nothing wrong with your ipod...look at the toolbar by the time in the botom right corner of your screen there should be a symbol down there that has a little green arrow over a gray box.  right click on it and it should say "safely remove hardware". click that.  your ipod will stop blinking and you can disconnect it. your songs should be on the ipod


Are our best days behind us? Do we lack a National vision and have we bankrupted ourselves by waging war in iraq. Will we ultimatley just leave iraq and they will hate us anyways? Why are we letting this administration ruin all that is good about America,killing our best people in a stupid war?

China and India are paying their workers a few dollars a day.  These countries are not worth modeling our actions on.  China executes 3500 people a year for crimes as simple as shoplifting.\n\nAmerica is far from Bankrupt.  But we did take a HUGE hit when the dot com busted up the stock market a few years ago.  America not only lost several millions of tax revenue, but had to give millions more in tax rebates to individuals who lost investments.\n\nI think it is extreamly hypocritical to complain about American foreign policy while enjoying the rewards that policy provides.  Do you use oil?  Do you buy shoes, clothes, and other products made overseas?  Do you want your country that has been formed by millions of immigrants to stand idle when horrible things are taking place in their former countries?  Why do so many people complain about 2500 soldier deaths within the last 5 years when in that same time period more than a half million Americans have been murdered, died in alcohol related accidents, and lung cancer, just to name a few preventable deaths?\n\nMy question is why are Americans ruining their own lives while riding the media bandwagon telling us to blame our leaders.\n\nAmerica will survive and will do it helping (and hurting) many other countries along the way.  We will learn to judge our actions on a larger scale (think centuries instead of years).  And it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better as we stretch and learn.  America is still one of the youngest countries on the planet.

I've heard of myths but this just gets crazy!If you do know please tell here

Most scientists think it is a myth, though many people believe it.  Actually the word "lunacy" meaning insanity comes from the Latin word "luna", meaning moon.  However, despite what a previous poster said, some studies have foun dconnections between the full moon and some negtive human behavior.  I've attached the website where they are listed.\n\nHere are some websites that might give you more information.


It is a female singing, like Beyonce or something and some of the lyrics in the chorus is something like 'ride up on it' and 'jack up on it'. And someone mentions ' the dirty south' Its a pretty new song. The lyrics are sung kind of fast. Its NOT 'Baby Boy' either, but it is slightly similar. I know its either R&B or Hip hop, and its pretty new. Anyone have any ideas?

yeah, it's by beyonce.  near the beginning does a guy say, "u needa stop playin' 'round with all the clowns and the wansksta; good girls needa get down w/ the gangstas"?  n it's CHECK up on it, not jack up on it. lol.if you watch mtvj (jams) or mtvh (hits), all they basically play is music videos, n they play that song a lot.
