Tell me why one is better than the other. I am a star trek fan above all, but 10 points will go to the best answer, gate or trek.

I could be a real snit and say "Three words: 'no Prime Directive'" but I won't.\n\n"Stargate has less history"?  "Star Trek has two centuries of history"?  \n\nCorrect me if I'm wrong, but wasn't one of the main problems with the short-lived "Enterprise" the fact that it was revisionist history, placing people and events in places they weren't supposed to be for another two hundred years?  (Yes, that Borg-on-ice episode comes to mind, the VERY LAST episode of that show I watched.)\n\nIf you want to get technical, SG-1 has over five THOUSAND years of history to build from, and that's only if you go back to when Daniel Jackson led the Egyptians in a revolt against Ra and kicked him out of Egypt.  The show also draws many of its characters, stories, and challenges from people and events of Earth's ancient mythologies, including (but certainly not limited to) the Egyptian, Greek, Norse, Celtic, Hindu, and Japanese pantheons.  That doesn't count the history of the Ancients and the Ori, which spans thousands of years before Earth's recorded history.\n\nHowever, THAT is not the reason I believe Stargate is better.  The characters of SG-1 are far richer and more believable than most of the characters of Star Trek, especially of the latter shows.  The friendships shared by the cast members of the show translate to the characters they play, giving the central people of the show an underlying chemistry that can't be faked.  The characters themselves evoke such strong emotions in the viewers that when the Daniel Jackson character was written out at the end of the fifth season, outraged fans over-loaded the studio's switchboard to the point it had to be shut down, and flooded the production offices with thousands of letters.  You think Paramount experienced the same when Tasha Yar was killed?  Or Jadzia Dax?  Nope, or if they did, they refused to acknowledge it as the folks of Stargate did: giving the fans what they wanted.\n\nI'm not denying the historical impact of the original Trek and how the waves it made in the late '60s-early 70s still resonate today, but it's apples and oranges to try to compare it to SG-1's action-packed, thought-provoking, pop-culture-referencing, self-effacing, friendship-building, moral-strengthening, darn good story-telling.


i am diabetic with a vascular problem along with 2 stents and a femoral bypass. female 39 yrs with toes that are ischemic. i have been told they will need to be amputated i want to know how long i am looking at. can it be reversed, the ones already changing colors. can anyone help me? i also have psoriasis will that also affect the blood flow and lack of oxygen? i look forward to some input. thank you

Hi\nI guess it depends on the individual.\nMy Mother started with a sore toe on Christmas eve & by new years eve it was turning black & purple & smelled awful so new years day the vascular surgeon removed her big toe.\n\nShe is still having the district nurse in to clean & dress it 3 months on.\nOn a positive note...... Her toe is healing well & it has started to close up nicely. no secondary infections etc.\n\nDiabetes is a nasty condition if you dont keep it under control\n\nGood luck


How could it survive millions of years? If the earth is really that old, the marrow should not even be there should it?

What makes you think that somebody capable of correctly answering that question, like a paleontologist that actually worked on such fossils, would be on Answers and would actually explain it to a dumbass like you?!??

Hi my name is Rachell.I'm in the 8th grade. My social studies teacher Mr.Grant, for my exit project gave me the topic of the great wall of china.I found all the other answers to the questions I had, but the only question I can't find is this one.I hope that some one can help me answer my question.PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

The Great Wall stretches for 4,160 miles across North China. It is the only man-made structure that can be seen from the moon with the naked eye. Its construction started as far back as the Spring and Autumn period (770-476 B.c.) and the Warring States period (475-221 B.C.). Rival feudal kingdoms built walls around their territories to keep out invading nomadic tribes from the north. When Qin Shihuang unified China, he started to link up and extend these walls. Prisoners of war, convicts, soldiers, civilians and farmers provided the labor. Millions died for this cause and many Chinese stories speak of parted lovers and men dying of starvation and disease. Their bodies were buried in the foundations of the wall or used to make up its thickness. The Great Wall crosses loess plateaus, mountains, deserts, rivers and valleys, passing through five provinces and two autonomous regions. It is about 20 feet wide and 26 feet high. Parts of the wall are so broad that 10 soldiers can walk abreast. Materials used were whatever could be found near by-clay, stone, willow branches, reeds and sand. Parts of this wall can still be seen in remote parts of China. What most visitors see of the Wall now was restored in the Ming dynasty, when stone slabs replaced clay bricks. It took 100 years to rebuild and it is said that the amount of material used in the present wall alone is enough to circle the world at the equator five times


my sisters recently turned 14.. we were trying to decide on a bithday party idea when i thought of this..sinces its a co ed party i thought this would would be fun... we could have eating contests.. and tug awars.. i need more challenges to play.. and any other ideas that anyone can come up with.. thanks so much

No no no no no!  For my birthday last year, we had a giant scavenger hunt.  You invite around 15 kids and have 5 parents be "designated drivers."  You put the kids in groups of 3 and give each group $45 and a list of items they need to go get.  Send them to the mall to get pictures, send them to McDonalds to get chicken, Burger King for fries, Subway for napkins, etc.  Trust me, it is A LOT of fun...they'll get really competitive so they can have the bragging rights!


we r frnds (really good friends). i think she loves my best mate(im not sure tho). so its kinda hard for me to tell her how i feel abt her! but im scared..if she says no..im gonna lose her forever. i cant imagine my life  without her! i know she is the one for me. we know each other for 3 months. do u think its time i said her da thing ..if yes...how do i do it? giv me som unique ideas!

Um, you really can't just kiss her cuse it will shocke her and might desturbe her very much so.\ninstead tell her this: WE have been friends for 3 months and yuo are like on of my best friends and are friends ship means a lot to me and I have to tell you something but I want you to promise me we will always be friends no matter what happens and then tell her exactly how you feel ask her out and you ttly won't lose her if you are friends that never ends love does but not friend ship not at all.\nSo even if she says no you can still be friends and when/if you break up make sure to say you still want to be friends she will be happy and so will you.\nI am a girl so take my advise not a guys cuse he will just mess you up big time and I know what girls wanna hear.\nGood luck hone. xoxoxo


i F YOUR PARENTS WERE IN A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION AND THE ONLY WAY YOU COULD SAVE THEM WAS BY HAVING SEX WITH SOME ONE OF YOUR SAME SEX, WITH WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?

Screw the parental units.  They've had their time.


i can talk and see a ghost. her name is marry and she is 15 but i don't know what to do can you help me?


whats the integral of 1/((a-x)^2) with respect to x?


if they were not in a large group? Would they walk down our streets alone and call us names and protest?

Mob mentality has a lot to do with their behavior.  People will do things in a group they would never do if alone.\n\nThe immigration issue is a difficult one.  What needs to happen is that workable, enforceable laws must be established and supported that allow LEGAL access for those wanting to work in our country, but they must work within the system.  If they don't, and we allow that, it's an insult to every immigrant who waited and worked to get here legally.\n\nWe simply cannot allow our laws to not only be disrespected and disregarded, but to have to financially support those who are breaking our laws as well.  That recipe will lead to disaster for our state and our country.  So change the laws.  Establish a win win situation for both sides.\n\nOur neighbors across the street worked three jobs each to get enough money to legally bring their relatives to the United States.  Is it fair that their hard work and sacrifice be dismissed, and the same rights granted to those who flaunt the laws of our land and "sneak" in?\n\nIt's a difficult situation, but we cannot abandon the rule of law.


Manic Cop I and II is what I'm looking for.

you can .but good luck.best thing to do is just buy the dvd.


I was just wondering what it was. i have meaning but ti might not be the true meaning.

Homework means to research at home. Find everything you can about a given subject. In college, they give you a separate book with the answers in it. They want you to be able to get the right answers and compare your work with the answers. If you research a given subject, you have extended knowledge of it and you get 100% of the worth out of the homework instead of just dreadfully doing it.


Well... that's kind of a broad question, but here's the basics both signals. \n\nDigital Signal\n----------------------------\nA digital signal is like an electronic representation of bianary.  it has 2 states, high and low.  It depends on the logic being used (CMOS, TTL, or ECL), but the lows can run anywhere from -5.2 VDC in ECL Logic, and the highs up to +5.2VDC in TTL Logic.  in the o'scope, all you will see looks a little like:\n_-_--____--_--__--_--_____-__-----_       <==== where you can see definate highs and lows.\n\n__--__--__--__--__--__--__--__--__--__ <== A typical digital clocking signal, like in your computer\n\nAnalog Signal\n------------------------\nAn analog signal is like what you see in your windows media player when you turn on the o'scope visualisation (do it, it's a good example of an analog signal).  The pure definition of an analog signal is a variable signal that is continuous in both time and amplitude.  It could be a perfect Sine, triangle, square, or sawtooth Wave ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Waveforms.png ), a straight DC level, or what you see in the Media Player Example.


come on we've had no one for like a decade

I THOUGHT WE HAD A DECENT PRESIDENT ALREADY. \nIF NOT WHY DID THE PEOPLE VOTE HIM IN TWICE.


I've been seeing a commercial for the new Jaguar (dont remember the type right now) but its got a song that's rather catchy and I was wondering if anyone knew the title.\nI've checked the website, they dont have teh commercial up so unfortunately you'll have to make due with a pretty bad assumption on what the words are.\n\n"I'll turn my camera on tonight." was pretty much the chorus. I want to say Prince might do the song (the singer has a high voice) but I'm not sure. ^^;


I'm sick and tired of the bleeding hearts trying to label anyone who supports border enforcement as "racists," "KKK," "Nazi," "Draconian," etc. Why is Mexico the central focus ofall this? Because of the 12 million illegals, roughly 80% of them are from Mexico, that's why. Mexico isn't the only poor country out there. What about all the pople in Central and South America, the Caribbean, SubSaharan Africa, Southeast Asia ane Eastern Europe. Diversity is fine ... heck, that's what makes our country strong. But we're getting waaaay too many Mexicans. I guarantee you there's hordes of people from Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Angola, Vietnam, Laos, El Salvador, Peru, Bosnia, Kosovo and Chechnya would love an opportunity to Come to the good 'ol U.S. of A. It's about fairness. Mexico is right next door, so they have an unfair advantage that other countries do not have. I guarantee you that people from the listed countries above would come here, learn english and begin the process of assimilation.

The big issue I have isn't with number of Mexicans that are in America.. it's more of the fact that they refuse to enter the country LEGALLY, and they refuse to live like an America once they get here...\n\nIf they are still sooooo proud of Mexico that they have to bring their flags here and wave em around everywhere, then go back to the country that doesn't provide your family a future.. I'd be proud to call that home also... If you insist on being proud and living the way you do in your home country.. Move into the areas that Americans have designated yours.. I.E. "Little Italy" "Little Mexico".. etc.. In those places, yo ucan go about everyday life and live 50 to a house...\n\nLearn ENGLISH.. Doesn't meant you can't know/speak spanish.. But speak it only in the home, and speak english when you are dealing with other Americans, seeing that is what we speak..\n\nLive one family to a house, not a generation of on family to a house.. Same rule for a car.. only clowns travel around with 15 people in a VW Bug.. If you want to be associated with that, then more power to you..\n\nAs far as the rights go.. Amercians have given their lives and fought for those rights, so other Amercians could enjoy them... Mexicans have hopped a fence, hid out, and won't sacrifice shit for America... Most of them are here illegally, and since they aren't legal citizens of America, they shouldn't get to enjoy the rights that Americans do... \n\nSo yes, I agree.. GO MINUTEMEN !!!!


Looking for any random, made up song titles to write too (concepts/topics welcome also). Suffering from writer's block right now...thanks (I'll shout you out in the linear notes if use it lol)

umm... how about 'Shout Out"--- write a song that say something about how you feel about a certain community or group of people.\na song is a way people use to reach out others or to be heard.


can u divide a number by prime number multiplied by the integral of pi squared with a power of the exponential


RAM card.  But this is a laptop and I don't want to open it up.  That's scary.

There's usually a panel you can unscrew on the bottom. It's actually very easy - you don't have to take the whole thing apart. The one drawback is generally laptops have a lot fewer RAM slots than desktops. You'll want to check to be sure you can add it, as you may need to consider instead replacing what you have.


I have been asked to take on the role of president of the board for a non-profit in my area. What does this job involve?

"For profit" businesses actions focus on revenue generation. A non-profit organization is a business with a social objective. \n\nA president's job is to manage the non-profit and its budget relative to the cost of "doing business" (i.e., to accomplish its social objectives efficiently, and manage its funding).\n\nAlthough a non-profit doesn't "make money", a non-profit needs funds to operate; so one of your jobs is to acquire "revenues" from funding sources through grant proposals; and manage those funds "running the business".


I go to school from 7am-2:15pm Then to work from 2:30-9pm. I really need a social security replacement card. But its always closed when i can go in.

Yes you can. Go to this site for the info. \nhttp://www.ssa.gov/online/ss-5.html

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.\nhttp://www.holybible.com/\n\n"Since the issuance of Charles Darwin’s, The Origin of Species (1859), there has been a massive campaign to flood the “intellectual market” with evolutionary propaganda. Though such ideas by no means originated with Darwin, he popularized evolution more than anyone else."\nhttp://www.christiancourier.com/archives/whyEvolution.htm\n\n\n!!!!!!!Please I beg of you enlighten me!!!!!!!

Tell you what.  Spend six weeks in a biology lab with some species with very short life/reproductive cycles--say, drosophila or flatworms--and they'll be your witnesses to evolution.  Is it easy to argue against the existence of something one can actually see happening in front of one?  For example, how do you explain the constant mutation of the flu virus.  It's not a point of theory--it's an observable fact.  So, how does that happen, if there's no evolution?  You see my point:  we don't need "witnesses," because we have real empirical evidence.\n\nBut in any case, it doesn't matter what I believe or what you believe.  There is room both for your cosmology and for mine in the world.\n\nWhat does matter is what is taught in school.  As of yet, right-wing Christian evangelicals have not succeeded in imposing their particular worldview on the entire country by changing our laws into Evangelical Christian shariah, and our schools into Evangelical Christian madrassas, despite their repeated efforts.  Until that time, it does matter that science, not religion, is what we study in science class.\n\nBy the way, try reading other eye-witness accounts to the creation of the world.  Upon what basis, other than your community's belief, is your religious creation myth more demonstrably true than that of Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Parsis, Baha'is, Jains, etc.?  Show me the legitimate, objective, neutral, non-theological criteria that proves your book's eyewitness account more true than theirs, and you might have made a real point.  Until then, not really.\n\n(By the way, any answer that says the Bible has the true answer "because the Bible says so" would not count as a reason outside your faith system.  I'm not saying you're wrong--just that that's not science.)


I have this game called age of emPires 2.

Deodorant in the supermarket is not good for us. What are some natural alternatives? Is deodorant in natural food stores any better than mass-market deodorant (i.e. Tom's nature based products). I've heard of people using lemon and baby powder. What works best and is the healthiest (besides going bare-skinned)?

A regular deoderant and one not combined with an antiperspirant is safe to use.  Antiperspirants have been touted by some to cause cancer but this is not the case- they can clog your pores, but do not cause cancer.  I am allergic to many deoderants, so what I have always used is the crystal type deoderant and I recommend it to many people.

when is his cd going to come out and what record company is he with?


ok my exbf who i dated for 7 yrs off and on because he moves alot... the last time he left he hurt me really bad... he left with out saying bye... and he lives two hrs away from me right now but he called me the other day and told me that he is suppose to be moving back closer to my side of the town and he was hoping that me and him could go back out and i dont kno if i want to give another chance because i mean i love him but he hurt me really bad last time we broke up... what should i do plz help me...?

i think u should talk to him about it and tell him how u feel, if it seems like he doesn't care then don't go for it but he apologizes and is caring and looks like hes changed then i wouldn't be able to resist. this is a tough situation to be in and with all the advice you can from here its still your heart you should be listening to.


I am curious why some Christians have decided that their beliefs are not a religion.\n\nWebster defines Religion as:\nEtymology: Middle English religioun, from Latin religion-, religio supernatural constraint, sanction, religious practice, perhaps from religare to restrain, tie back -- more at RELY\n1 a : the state of a religious <a nun in her 20th year of religion> b (1) : the service and worship of God or the supernatural (2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance\n2 : a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices\n3 archaic : scrupulous conformity : CONSCIENTIOUSNESS\n4 : a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith\n- re•li•gion•less\n\nWhy do you believe that all other beliefs that worship a god should be labeled as a religion while your worship of a god is not?  How long has Christianity not been considered a religion?  \n\nDo not confuse this question as an insult, I am honestly curious.

A lot of people including some who call themselves "Christian" are confused about what the true meaning of religion is. \n\nThe true meaning is a very positive one that is needed for all of humanity. \n\nThis is what anyone who calls their self a "Christian" should know about the meaning of religion as it pertains to following the commandments of Christ:\n\n"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained by the world." -James 1, 27\n\nThis Yahoo news article is an example of the Christian religion in action:\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060415/ap_on_re_us/skid_row_easter


We want to change our payroll frequency from bi-weekly to monthly.  Has anyone done this?

It's difficult to do this.  You'll need to inform your employees well in advance (they don't have a say, but there are rules on informing them).  Also, you'll probably need to make changes to the way you deduct money from EE's checks (401k, Medical, etc).  Those are the big things to watch out for.  If you really want to do it right, see if you can spring for a trip to the APA's workshop in May ;)\n\nhttp://www.americanpayroll.org/congress24/24line07.html\nhttp://www.americanpayroll.org/congress24/24w-payroll.html#22


I just got a new Imac Duo and I love it.. I want to copy the movies I buy, so that I can keep the new movie DVD in good shape and my children can watch the copies ad infinitum. But I need help. I have Roxio Popcorn that came bundled on my old computer. I have Mac the Ripper, (MTR) to copy the DVD to my computer. But  I need a patch: (Popcorn to Version 1.0.3) or else Popcorn shuts down. Unfortunately Roxio won't allow me to  have it without a Box, serial number, which I've never had. So... can anyone tell me either how to get this Roxio Patch, (I've tried all the crack sites, but to no avail,) or if there is another program that will let me burn my DVD (No, Nero isn't available for my Mac.) Long question, I know, but is there an answer out there? Thanks very much... JC

Not sure if this will help but i have an ibook and I use Mac the Ripper first then I use DVD2oneX to kind of extract the files and make them able to fit on DVD.  After that I go to Desk Utility and select the file and burn it.  Not sure if this made since my brother set it all up on my computer it kinda takes awile to go through the process but it works for me.  Good Luck.


This guy is already married in their culture although they don't have any papers yet. I am engaged with my first and long term bf, problem is, we both fell in love with each other despite being engaged.... waht shall i do to be fair with the four of us? My long term bf for 6 years is a good man.... but, i feel closer with this man I just met. With him, i feel more secure and happy... but we are both engaged, he told  me that he'll break his engagement with his long term gf also but i know that it would be very difficult. In the eyes of their folks, they are already married...

You need to really ask yourself how much you like your fiance.  You need to spend more time with your fiance and really try to make things work with him.  I would stop dating this other guy immediately, and if he does not understand, then you do not need him anyways.\n\nYou also need to keep in the back of your mind, how easily his attention turned to another women.  It sounds like he is not American.  I would really study up on his nationality.  Many other countries let men have more than 1 wife.  You also need to be careful because he may just be trying to get citizenship.  And he gets citizenship if you marry him or have a child with him.\n\nAnd yes you do need to consider your fiance's feelings and his wifes feelings. And remember in his eyes he is married to this other women.  And in many other countries divorced women are not allowed to marry another man.  So even if you were to marry him, in his eyes he can still have his other wife.  And even if he divorces her, she will still be single and free for him whenever he wants her.\n\nIt is natural to get curious about another person when we have been in a committed relationship for a long time.  But there must be some good reasons why the relationship has lasted as long as it has.\n\nSome other stuff you need to ask yourself,which is kind of already answered is; why you are suddenly drifting away from the person you have been enagaged with.  Have either of you neglected each other in any way?  What is causing this diffculty in your relationship?  What do you like about your fiance?  What do you like about this new guy?  Can you really imagine not having your fiance in your life, after being in-love with him for this long?  Can your fiance fill the void this new guy is filling?  Is their really a void in your relationship with your fiance?


the reasons why  motivation of learners should be part of teacher's job

Interesting question!  On one hand, the teacher is responsible for doing all in his power to make the course material as interesting as possible.  He should be well schooled in educational methods and strategies, and should constantly be seeking to learn more and better ways to impart information.  Careful forethought and planning on the instructor's part will result in many ideas that will make class more interesting and appealing to the reluctant learner.\n\nThat said, however, it is manifestly impossible to enter a pupil's heart and make him want to learn.  Part of being human is to have free moral choice, and some simply choose not to learn.  It is not possible to reach everyone, regardless of what the hopeful pundits may claim.  Even Jesus Christ, the Master Teacher, had one disciple that positively refused to accept His teaching.  \n\nI suspect that laziness on the part of the evaluator has something to do with blaming the teacher for the lack of motivation on the student's part.  It's easy just to say, "If the student hasn't learned, the teacher hasn't taught."  However, as with most things, the matter is far more complicated than that.  The evaluator (whether it be a school administrator, parent, board member, or politician) needs to take the time to check the teacher's methods and procedures.  If deficiencies are found, these can be addressed.  But let's not forget that it's the student's job to learn just as it's the teacher's job to teach.  Without the cooperation of both, learning cannot and will not take place.  And to try to fix unilateral blame for that failure may be an attractively simple option, but it is simply not realistic.


The dusty rubble from the ashes might ultimately stick together to form planets. What do you think?

Yes, new stars and new planets can form from the remnants of dead stars.  We can see this process happening, although it is extremely slow, a process that take millions of years.\n\nEven our sun is thought to be a 3rd generation star.  When our sun dies, it will expand to become a Red Giant star, eventually cooling/contracting into a white dwarf, as this happens, a lot of stellar meterial will be released and will float off into space to make new stars in the future.


The person is a scientist who did stuff on the pendulum and saturn please help me find stuff about him


This is my favorite SNL skit.  Does anyone know how I can get ahold of a copy.  It doesn't need to be online.  And general, go to a store answers are unhelpful even if they win you points.  I've been looking forever and can't find it.  Please help.  I need to laugh hysterically once more before I die.

Here's the transcript: http://snltranscripts.jt.org/84/84pjackpotwad.phtml\n\nHave you tried Limewire?


someone called me that once, but I have no idea what that means, exactly..

It probably started with Clara Bow, of the silent era films mostly, although she did do some talkies as they were called. However she was afraid of the microphones they used then and wasn't' that successful.\nShe was a very beautiful young woman, with loads of charm and a certain sexiness to her, innocent and sweet. But in those times, that wasn't the norm.\nThere have been several since then, one it seems in every decade. Marilyn Monroe from the fifties.\nSo you are in good company, and that's one heck of a compliment.\nSmile and enjoy it.

It could be stress, hormone imbalance, medication she's taking, if she's older menopause, weight gain, weight loss, uterin condition such as fibroids....there could be a number of reasons. I work at a hospital, but you should ask a doctor or ask her why and recommend she see a doctor if she hasn't already.

I like Nicole Richie now, when she was on the Simple Life she was kinda mean and rude. Paris I don't like so much, she's really too into herself for no reason at all! She's not so attractive really. Plus I think its funny that they aren't friends because Nicole teased Paris about her sex video I mean it basically made her career... lets not lie about that heh!

As a high school student I don't get in school the real facts when there is a political controversy in the island. I got info about the problem but I would like to know the ecxact numbers in dolars and cents of the Puerto Rican economical defficict.

a loan of $ 420 millions was suggested but still int wouldn't be enough.they found that in Departamento de Hacienda (they collect the tax money) are 400millions in reserve but only 80millions are to pay all of the salaries till June.\nNo banks want to lend the money because Puerto Rico has a lot of loans that are not paid.

past experience would say that, I woke up in the morning and went out to the garage just tinkering around.  Then all of a sudden I heard back up signals I went to the garage door opened it and behold there was a flatbed towing truck!!  On top of it was a 1937 dodge business coupe (a wreck!) as far as my wife was concerned one of the best memories I will ever have!! I had driving by this car in that field for 3 years and she took it upon herself without me knowing purchased it. So if  you really do listen to this person you will really know what to do! PS that was eight years ago it is on the road and we have completed 4 more good luck!!

for the longest time I had these problems within myself and surrounding people. I been having mood swings. I been studying bipolar disorders and I think that I got it. What do I do next?

What does this mean to you?  lol\nLet's have some levity here.

Men are like drugs; the more you are around them the more brain cells you lose.


I am not trying to force my faith or disagree with a religious group. But I really want to know your opinion about this. since everyone of us question God for letting the devil to disturb humans. another valued question. do you think that evil comes from Satan or from within? who is real devil? Satan or us...we have a free will to choose between right and good, yet when someone does something bad, they say devil made him evil...tell me...

I was always told that God allows evil because He is all about free will and doesn't want to impose himself on us. God allows us to see Him if we chose to see him and he will leave us alone if we don't. As for the evil thing, i beleive that evil comes from your inability to resist temptation. Satan doesn't make you do anything, he just suggests it.  You do the rest.


How many of the signatories of the declaration of independence were of scots descent?

The Kingdom of Scotland's 1320 Declaration of Arbroath was undoubtedly also an influence as the first known formal declaration of independence.\n\nIt would be hard to know the background of each of the 56 signatories without looking each one of them up and doing a complete historical biography.  Some have estimated about half had at least 1/2 Scottish blood.


My parents wont give me their financial info to fill out my FAFSA for school. We just dont get along well. Is there any way i can still get financial aid?? Im only 20 and not married with no kids, i think that makes a difference, if your married or not....HELP!!

Some parents misunderstand the process and think that filling out the form means that they are agreeing to pay for their student's schooling.  Try explaining to your parents that by filing the FAFSA you're trying to fund your education by *yourself* (they should see that as a good thing) and that, by providing their information on the form, they are NOT on the hook for anything.  The loans that would be awarded to you based on this form would be YOUR responsibility and ONLY yours, so this should be a no-risk scenario for them.  \n\nIf they don't listen to reason and you can't think of any other way of getting them to sign the form, you may be out of luck: The Federal Student Aid regulations specifically say that a parent's refusal to pay is NOT grounds for a student being claimed as independent.  You may, however, be able to talk to your Financial Aid Office to see what other means they have for considering you independent so that you wouldn't have to include their information on the form.  Some schools are more lenient than others in this regard. Most schools will make exceptions in cases of abuse or the death of the students' parents. Many schools will also make exceptions if you can document that you truly are completely self-suffient. You will need to submit proof that the following statements have been true of your situation for a while (usually about 2 years)... \n\n* your parents don't claim you on their tax return\n* you pay for your own housing, food, utilities, etc.\n* you pay for your own health insurance\n* you pay for your own transportation (and, if you have a car, the car insurance)\n* you don't receive any other in-kind support\n\nIt's still worth checking to see if the schools allows dependency overrides for other reasons.  You'll never know if you don't ask.


My husband is being deployed to Afghanistan and would like a laptop for his birthday.  I would like to be able to play Oblivion and Doom 3 on it.  Are the Alienware laptops the best way to go?  The one I had them back build online at Circuit City was $3000.

I would recommend the Alineware Area 51 m5500. \nIts not as expensive as others and is just as good and does not weigh as much. You can build to order an Area 51 on alienware.com. If go all out and get the best for it it will wont cost that much more than 2000 bucks AMD would be preferable for gaming. Do not get a laptop with an Intel Celeron processor. They are not good for gaming.

crest is a competion that 11-14 year old pupils in england can enter in science projects. We where regional champs last year but struggling to come up with original topic this year.Any ideas would be greatly appeciated(We tried to use different  sugars to see how fermentation was effected but they only have 10 hous max and so was not suitable) My head of science is on my back.HELP

You can see how enzymes affect the rates of reaction. You can test how varying concentrations of enzyme and substrates affect how fast reactions occur. For example you can study how Peroxidase breaks down Hydrogen Peroxide into water and oxygen. This happens in cells when they metabolize. Hydrogen Peroxide forms as a by-product when this happens, so Peroxidase comes in and breaks the Peroxide down since it is very toxic to the cell.


I am not catholic. However i am a ctristain of a different denomination. If God says in his word not to make any images of him, then why do catholics do that( rosary, statues, cross)? ANd when u pray  u stand facing the cross? Isn't that gowing agaisnte God's word?

I am assuming this is a question of curiosity and not of mocking Catholics.\n\nAs the other posters answered, we are not worshipping the actual statues as GOD himself but rather as a visual reminder.  \n\nIn the Old Testaments people worshipped idols, animals, etc. even though God kept sending prophets to warn them of not continuing such practices.  During the time of Moses, the people celebrated by thanking a Bull rather than God who saved them from Egypt that is when the commandments were given.\n\nI am not an expert nor someone who has such strong faith but I just tried to state the misconception of others that Catholics worships idols by having "images" in Churches.

I live in ND and my landlord is trying to sue for cleaning costs. Since then he's had several tenants in the same house. Is there a statute of limitations that applies? He has never contacted me before this with any requests for money. I've been out of the house for two years.

He cant prove it was you then.\nIf he sues he will have to sue all tenants at the time. Also if there was a deposit he can take the deposit but chances are the lawsuit will get thrown out of court.\n\nLook specifically in your contract to see if he retains any rights to file legal claims against you after the fact (some people have tricky contracts they write up) If not, then I wouldnt worry too much. Now im not a lawyer, nor do I play one on tv so this is solely my opinion.\n\nI would suggest telling him to shove it up his a**


Fuel injection is the method that fuel is delivered to the engine, in older cars they used a carburator to mix the air and fuel.\n\nIn fuel injection there is acctually a pressurized injector that puts it into the engine.\n\nThere are 2 main types\n\nTBI - throttle body injection, where there is a thing like a carburator called the throttle body that limits the air into  the engine, and fule is injected there.\n\nBut most newer cars use MPI - multi port injection, where there is an injector for each rail of the intake manifold (ie 1 per cylineder) that injects fuel right towards teh back of the valves, generaly this system will produce more power then TBI, which is why it is used more

I want to wrap a long text without any space after a certain width in mozilla...I have able to do it in IE by "word-wrap:break-word" but thats not supported in mozilla.....Please help

word-wrap is not yet a standard CSS property. If you want your code to work in both browsers, using established W3 standards will save you a lot of headaches, although IE implements some of those standards strangely. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ .\nUnfortunately, forced word breaking is not yet supported by Mozilla; it is part of the CSS3 working draft, see http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#word-wrap . For now, the best you can do is text-align:justify or script a word breaker from javascript.


I keep on seeing a tv commericial on TNT (during basketball games) about a website called-seehowtheylive.com. How do I enter to win the contests/sweepstakes on their website? I look on the website, I click the "Play" button and nothing happens. Is my computer just too slow or is the contest currently unavailable? Thanks.

You go to the website and there are different categories like "basketball", "football", "soccer", "baseball", etc..\n.\nI clicked on the basketball one, and then it shows you a video that you select on a certain player. During the video you scroll the arrow around the video screen, and when the arrow turns to a AT&T logo you click on it. That's how you play. The more "hidden things" you are able to scroll over and click on the more points you get....\n\nGood Luck!!

I absolutely love hockey and every time I watch it, I think of ways to mix up the game a little (or a lot). Just for fun, check this out: \n\nThe goals are 18 inches off the ground.\nThe goalies are nude except for their helmets.\nThe captains are armed with pistols containing one bullet each, but they cannot use them on the goalies.\nIf a goalie dies, the opposing team automatically wins, but otherwise the game continues as "normal". (Maybe not normal, per se, penalties would have to be judged and dealt with differently, but there would still be the opportunity for power plays, etc.)\n\nWhat would this game be called? "Doom Hockey", perhaps? Tell me what you think.

You guys are idiots. This is the only way to make this ridiculous game more interesting. \n\nHockey is inherently boring. I would welcome any way to make this mediocre contest between steroid-enhanced Canadians more compelling.\n\nThese guys have no control over the "puck." Give them some incentive towards getting the stupid rock in the stupid goal and I will applaud it.\n\nI oppose the death-penalty. However, if you make death a condition of this silly ice-fest, I would applaud it.\n\nEmbrace the dark side.


I was raised roman catholic, and my grandparents are EXTREMELY religious. I would like my daughter to be baptised. But what are the requirements and procedures. My Gpa wants it done @ his church which is an hour from me. Would I be required to start attending or take any classes? Would be hard because of the long distance. also, would the godparents be required to do anything? I haven't attended the church in about 10-12 years.

Yes you are required to take classes but there is probably a way you could complete the classes in your town and have her baptized an hour away.  You should think about this though cause in baptizing your child you are promising before God to raise her Catholic until she can make the decision for herself and if you don't plan to follow through there is no point.


My wife has recently became bi-curious and wants to try a threeway with me and another woman. Upon further investigation she also admitted to wanting another man too. From the first time I found this out, I have been upfront and honest and told her i can not allow another man to be with her. She claims that this is acceptable. what should i  do?

I say good on you for standing your ground!!! i wouldnt want another person touching my partner. I mean fair enough if you both wanted to have a threesome but you dont. So does that mean that you would have a threesome with a woman??


Do you think its appropriate for girls to go paintballing?

YES! THEY'RE WAY BETTER AT IT THAN GUYS! I went paintballing a couple days ago and there was this girl (the only girl) who I dare say was the best player out of the twelve people who were playing.

Not everyone has the same reactions as you do. Get an allergie test done to find out what your allergic to.


Other than racism or religious bigotry, I see no justifiable reason either historical or otherwise that Iran is making threats to destroy Israel, they are not arab nor are they physically near Israel.

only 4 of the 57 muslim nations on this planet recognize the one jewish state of israel. It is simple intollerance and hatred. IN the case of iran, it is a theocratic dictatorship, that diverts its peoples attention from their dire prediciment and living conditions and makes an enemy of of a small nation over 1000 miles away

The very oldest species on Earth are the cyanobacteria, which seem to have \nbeen around virtually unchanged for nearly 4 billion years. This is based \non fossils of that age that have been compared under high-powered \nmicroscopes to existing species of these bacteria. Other bacteria that \nare about as old are the archaea, which thrive in acidic, high- \ntemperature, or high-radiation environments. \n\nAnother ancient organisms are the stromatolites, mounds of algae and \nbacteria that today grow in the Bahamas, Shark's Bay Australia, and a few \nother limited environments. They have been around, also largely \nunchanged, for over 3 billion years and at one time were the Earth's \ndominant form of life. \n\nOn the animal side of things, the brachiopod Lingula is probably the \noldest, having existed nearly unchanged for over 500 million years, and \nthe horseshoe crab (limulus) has been on the planet for several hundred \nmillion years, too. Since the average "lifespan" of a species is only a \nfew million years, having such ancient species around is very impressive. \n\nA good book about the earliest life is "Cradle of Life" by J. William \nSchopf. He is one of the premier scientists doing this sort of research. \nAt a more advanced level, he has edited two scientific books, "Earth's \nEarliest Biosphere" and "The Proterozoic Biosphere", which should be in If you are a "separator" (I’m not sure if that is the correct word), instead of a “grouper” there are a LOT of things you could see as very young species. For instance, marine iguanas (are they called green iguanas?) are very different depending on what island they live on. Some people see those as separate species so there are some that are still in the process of adapting to changes that are seen to be becoming a new species. Also, a lot of migrating birds can reproduce with different species to form new species that are not barren like mules or anything like that, they can become their own species I guess. But I think a grouper would say they are all the same species if they can interbreed and have offspring that can reproduce. Like, all green iguanas are one species.

the time. They say they don,t have to go to church that they can stay home and serve God just as good.

That is awful.  People who never go to church, never read the bible, and curse all the time are not saved in my opinion.  If they are really saved they'll have the desire to read God's word, meet with other christians, and wont want to say evil words. They are just one of those people who claim to be something, but really are not.


ive tried and it has worked but not everytime cause i forget how to do it...please tell me how!!

Or do you think that independent spirituality is better for people? In other words, is religion to some degree leading people down a different path than they would otherwise take?

It depends on the person. Organized religion, yes does lead people down a different path then fate would possibly have it...but some people do not have such a strong will to follow their own independence. Organized religion can provide guidance for some people who are easily influenced, especially for the better. In other cases though, there are people who detest organized religion because, well, it does change people's mind frames greatly. Guess it really comes down to if you're a type A or type B person. intereseting question.


When I think about what may be off in space it just boogles my mind. I mean how can we not knwo if there is more life or what exactly is there. It seems to me that in a place to vastly big, that we can barely wrap our heads around, I think that there must be more. Maybe earth is an island and there are planets out there that are hudge continents. It seems so closed minded to me to think we aqre alone. Another great thing about this topic is science can give you theries and so on, but can they really prove anything? \n\nSO what do you think is out there in the great beyond? God? Just us? forverer and ever never ending?? Or something the rest of us could never even dream up.

Supposedly, we can only see just a small fraction of our universe.  With some many places, the odds are pretty good that there exists life somewhere else in the universe.\n\nHowever, with those odds, the chance of us finding them is almost zero.  Humans have existed for almost no time at all compared to the life of the universe, so the chance that another life form exists at this exact moment in time is very small.\n\nWith the large universe, somehow one of us would have to get interstellar travel.  But the chance of one of us randomly bumping into each other is very small because the universe is that large.\n\nAlso, who says other life forms want to expand to other places.  Maybe both of us will just be happy living on one planet and staying there until the life form goes extinct.\n\nThe only way we could prove any of these theories is to actually find other life, but given the above, the chance of that is almost zero.\n\nAll that said, I think there is/was life out there, but I don't think we'll ever find it.  Maybe they made it to Type I and self-destructed like we might. :)


When did slavery start & how long did it last?

The context of your question is very broad.\n\nSlavery has existed since the beginning of human history and exists to this very day in certain parts of the world.\n\nIn America, slavery (which President Bush observed recently was America's birth defect) was present at the founding of the nation, and unfortunately incorporated into the Constitution.\n\nOfficially, President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation freed most of the slaves in the Confederate states.  It officially ended at the cessation of hostilities in the Civil War, but technically in 1867 once new legislatures in the newly emancipated South recognized the Federal mandate.\n\nBelow is a reference link to slavery in the 21st century.


The next thing I know all his "plans" were with his "lady friend" he called me everyday all the time sometimes three and four times a day. He treated me pretty good even giving me money or bringing me medicine when I was sick.  But, as I stateed before all of a sudden his "friend" became the spotlight and everything was about her.  Was I used, do you think this person liked me at all?  I need help getting passed it now because I've gained respect for myself that he would never give me(of course now he won't talk to me) Any advice would be helpful.  Only serious answers please(meaning adults or those who actually think)

Honestly it sounds like he was playing the field. I'm not saying he didn't like you, but maybe he was seeing other people at the same time. Guys like to do this, especially older men with younger women, they think it makes them feel younger. I'm glad you have a sense of self respect, never let it go!! :)


I remember vietnam. I am so proud of the soldiers then and now. I hurt inside with the smug opinions implying it was wrong. What we did was and is good. I pray we can come to an accomplished end. God Bless the World, and protect us from evil characters.

Most soldiers returning from Iraq get a shock when they come home.  Over there we see what we are achieving and the good we are doing - but when we come home we realize that the people who hate us and want us to lose are the only voices you hear.\n\nNow we are questioning all of you.  We are winning this - and the only people who can defeat us are the news media and the US anti-war movement.\n\nAnd there is another issue you should consider.  If you let us down and force us to lose in Iraq - who will fight for you next time?

I notice that about a week after I'm done with my period I get very watery clear discharge for a few days.  Happens every month.  I would think it is watery so intercourse is better while I'm ovulating so I can get pregnant.  What does this discharge mean?

Hope this helps - the source site is listed\nFemale Health\nVaginal Discharge \n\n Vaginal discharge is normal and varies during your menstrual cycle. Before ovulation (the release of the egg), there is A LOT of mucous produced, up to 30X more than after ovulation. It is also more watery and elastic during that phase of your cycle.\n\nDifferent Types of Discharge  \n\nWhite: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not accompanied by itching. If itching is present, thick white discharge can indicate a yeast infection.\n\nClear and stretchy: This is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating.\n\nClear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising.\n\nYellow or Green: May indicate an infection, especially if thick or clumpy like cottage cheese or has a foul odor.\n\nBrown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.\n\nSpotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.

i need too know if my nephew can get married in a catholic church even though he has been chrisianed does he have to be baptised before he can marry a catholic woman or does it not matter

I am not a priest but I am Catholic so I hope I can give you some help on this.  I was not Catholic when I married my Catholic husband.  I was christened as a child but I can't remember if they even asked for any documentation to prove that.  But we did have to meet with a priest to clear up issues about how any children would be raised, etc.  And, anyone getting married in the Catholic Church must attend pre-cana classes.  Also, I was not allowed, of course, to take communion during the ceremony.


I have a school project in Language Arts and we have to write about the opposite sex.

Great Project!\n\nGirl's problems are boys! They want to get the best guy she can get,in order to do that, they dressed up, try to make them preety, which brings us to girl's next problem;\n\nAppearance problem: such as shopping addict, anorexia, bulemia, everything that girls do to make themselves preety.\nThus they did not realize that being smart is also very important to make them beautiful, its called inner beauty,which brings us to the next problem:\n\nIntellectual problem, some of the girls did not focus on their education or knowledge, makes them lack of knowledge.\nBeing not as smart, girls tend to do silly things that boys never understand, because girls think with their heart, not with their mind.which brings us to the next one;\n\nMen are from Mars and women are from Venus, just because boys have hard times to understand girls, surely, we are just as understandable as you guys...\n\nBut this is generally spaking, girls nowadays are way smarter, just use Pink's Stupid Girl as reverence...\nWhat do you think?\n[wink wink]


is it true that a person needs to be a military pilot before applying to NASA to be an astronaut?

You don't need to be a pilot, but it helps! Thanks for picking my answer as the best one for the other question! I love those web sites! As for the stuff to become a pilot, if you fill the astronaut requirements, you are set!


Coz there's conflicts in our schedules. I proposed and told me to wait. She also told me that she dont talk with anybody else except me. Later on I ask her If she loves me. He told me that she didn't know. There's is a feeling but she is also afraid to love once more coz of the situatuion, and she doesn't want me to get hurt. 2 days ago, we're supposed to talk (coz we we're talking everynight for 2 hours) but since she's busy, a fel asleep and didn't notice that she called. Last night, i went to bar and exchange text message to her (cwhile she's on break) usually i called, but last night i just texted her. On my way home, im about to call her, but her mobile is off till the morning. What do you think happen?

She wanted to get back at you because you missed her call the night before.  It happens.  No big deal, get over it.  If you can't get over it, you need to date someone less cool.  Cool people need and give space.  They don't call each other every night for two hours.  They don't play phone tag games.


a recording was made at the chelmsford high school,a media arts school

You may  need to be more specific. I was in district choir in 1973, held in Hollidaysburg, Pa. I do have the album from that one. Was that in Chelmsford, Essex (England) or Chelmsford Ma.(USA)?


Ok step by step...\n\n1) You start with 8x - 9 < 3x - 11.\nYou need to get the x's on one side... and the other numbers onto the other.\n\n2) So you'll take the 9 over to the other side... you'll add 9 to both sides (it's the opposite of -9... in essence 8x - 9 = 8x + -9).\n\n8x - 9 + 9 < 3x - 11 + 9\n8x < 3x - 2\n\n3) Now you'll need to get the x's onto the same side. So subtract 3x from both sides).  Make sure that whatever you do to one side you do to the other - this will keep it balanced and in check!\n\n8x < 3x - 2\n8x - 3x < 3x - 3x - 2\n5x < -2\n\n4) Now take it a step further and you'll need to get x by itself.  To do this, you'll need to divide by 5 (again, remembering to divide both sides by 5).\n\n5x < -2\n5x/5 < -2/5\nx < -2/5\n\n5) You can simplify the fraction further since it will be an even decimal point.\nx < -2/5\n-2/5 = -.4\nx < -.4\n\nIf your teacher wants you to keep it in fractions, then don't fret about dividing.  However, if s/he does, then divide and round to the respective amount of digits they would like (generally to the hundredths).\n\nThat's how you would solve this equation.  I hope this helps!


With me at times it happens,I still wonder to this day.

I think that I avoid that. But yes at times I take a good look at myself in the mirror. It doesn't lie. Sometimes the image I have of myself isn't exactly what reality is. That's speaking about the physical side. If you are speaking about that deeper question "Who am I?" then yes I also do that. I think that each person is different and must answer that in their own way. I think that I personally could list my qualities my standards my limits my likes dislikes and in that long list someone could get a picture of who I am. I firmly believe that EVERYONE has the ability to change what they see in that mirror and change the person in that mirror if they don't like what they see looking back at them. We are only a flesh and blood human.With the tools we have been given we can be whatever we choose.A mind that is so powerful we still haven't discovered but a small percentage of its power and Free Will ................


I really need this info for a school project! Please!!!!!

This is about all I could find on her:\n\nPatrick daughter Jana, 11, who had previously expressed her displeasure with leaving Denver, spends most of her time with her father and excels in Karate and Taekwondo classes, a skill which she displayed to some of the rowdier boys in their suite on Tuesday night.


could someone give me a site or something.i live in the caribbean someone help me!!!


I hope you're not asking because you're interested in learning how to become anorexic. Anorexia nervosa is a psychological disorder that I wish upon no one.


The power production plant can be nuclear, solar, wind generated or otherwise.  The question is to understand how power can be transmitted to very remote regions that have no proximity to power plants and/or cities.

On record I find that the longest power line on record is 1700km (1056 miles) in the Democratic Republic of Congo.\n\nPractical limits to distance for transmission of power is about transmission against loss of power. To transmit power it is more efficient to use alternating voltage (AC) rather direct voltage to reduce losses. \n\nAfter this, the concept of voltage and current being independent of each other is utilized. Given that power is voltage times current then if the voltage is increased then the current is reduced for the same amount of power. By reducing the current or amount of electrons flowing in the wire you reduce losses and yet transmit the same amount of power. The trade-off is equipment to create and insulate a higher voltage but this is easily offset by a small loss.\n\nWith ever longer power lines you can progressively increase the voltage and lower the current to lower the losses. For example Russia has a power line running at 2000v. This process can go on up to a limit of 2500V. At this high voltage it is so high it can actually charge the air around the power cables so that losses occur that then become too high to justify the higher voltage, low current approach and so there practical limits to how long power lines can be constructed.\n\nNo alternatives are available, to place cable underground incurres further losses of power between cable to ground and experiments were carried out in the early part of the 1900's with radio transmission with no success so practical delivery of power remains on overhead power cable.


1. Have you ever stolen something? Even something little?\n2. Have you ever told a lie?\n3. Have you ever commited adultery with another person? Jesus said that even if you look with lust at a women or man has already commited adultery in his/her heart.\n4. If God judged by these laws would you be innocent or guilty? (IF)\n5. Is it worth eternity in Hell not to trust God just to see if he will forgive you on Judgement Day?\n6.

cleaned my computer and now I can't seem to retrieve emails no matter how I try.

just to let you know - this has nothing to do with YOUR computer.  It all has to do with Yahoo!, not your computer.\nNeed I say again?\nYou are probably doing something wrong, or its just your internet.


they are small black circles on my back because i am dark skinned or you can call them blemishes.

I would also like the average price for this items: car, house. And I also need this information for the two following dates: July 21, 2004 and November 23, 2005

Go to bbhq.com. They can give a variety of prices for a variety of years:)


mines the guy i was daten screwed me in the bath room and i had fun

1- The shopping mall\nAnyone who's ever worked at a mall knows about those rear walkways used to connect stores. The doors are usually open and no one's patrolling them most of the time. Just wait for the shoppers to look the other way and duck inside a "Mall Personnel Only" door. And because those back walkways are so quiet, it's easy to hear footsteps approaching.\n\n2- Empty university classroom \nEver been bored in class and wondered what better use you could put that lecture hall to? Schools usually post a schedule of when each room is free and when it's in use. Just take note of an opportune time and show up. Universities being the trusting types, often these rooms remain open. Now if you can dodge the janitor, you're in. Don't forget to leave the lights off so as not to attract any attention.\n\n3- The park\nAh, a day at the park. Here a spot deep in the woods is probably no good because of poison ivy, deer ticks and an assortment of other hazardous plants and creatures. So find a hidden grassy spot somewhere out of sight.\n\nYou're best off heading there at sunset or at night, when there are less people, and choose a spot that has some kind of obstacle that you can hide behind long enough to pull up your pants, should you get caught.\n\n4- On a downtown train\nIf you find yourselves on a train for an hour or so, find an empty train car and get busy. Look for the cars with the bench seats -- plush upholstery is preferred. Just wait until the train is not too full and it's nearing the end of the line. Oftentimes if it's the last stop of the night, train conductors will make the remaining passengers move towards the front car, giving you your choice of empty cars.\n\n5- Cemetery\nWhy not try the cemetery? You know it's deserted, peaceful and quiet. Usually the front gate is always open, but if not, it should still be relatively easy to get in. The most you'll have to do is jump a fence. Just wait until after nightfall.\n\n6- Golf course \nThe golf course is another good choice for sex. The grass is manicured and soft. And because there aren't any twigs, branches or rocks laying around, you may not even need a blanket.\n\nIt's best to do it at a public golf course because country clubs are a little touchier about trespassing (unless you happen to be a member).\n\n7- Coat check area\nThis could be at a wedding, for example. People won't suspect you're gone, and even less that you're hiding in a closet. Just duck inside, quietly close the door (if there is one) and get down to business. Even if someone comes in to get their coat, if the room is somewhat big, they probably won't be wise to a thing.\n\nSometimes company parties are held at fancy catering spots or at country clubs. Both of these places likely have great unattended coat check rooms.


how does the government think that people (lower middle class and down), he real working force of america), can afford $3.00 per gallon when the average commute to work is 60mins.  not to mention the expenses of just living or providing for the family.  then rent, car payment, insurance, daycare, groceries, daily expenses, tolls, lunch, phone bills, auto maintenance...etc...!  what the heck is goin on here

The environmentalists and congress are to be blamed. The environmentalists won't let us drill offshore, every time the oil companies try they take them to court, they fight every effort to drill in ANWAR. The stupid republicans don't have the guts to stand up for it. Then we can't build new refineries because some treehugger is worried about a tree slug or some other worthless animal. When oil prices were low it was to expensive for oil companies to invest in new equipment, now that oil prices are up they are starting to re-invest, but it will take time.\n\nOh one other thing is all these stupid blends in this country that is mandated by the government that really don't do anything. Then forcing the oil companies to waste time on ethanol doesn't help either.\n\nWhile some local stations collude on what they are going to charge. (I have been in a gas station when another station has called to ask what they are charging that day).

she already knows i LOVE her, but she sed wen she breaks up with her bf, then she might go out with me! but she sed tht 2 months ago,and shes gonna graduate  soon!!! what should i do?

you sould go to her and tell that you love her since 5th grade and if she feels same way you feels about her she should break up her bf and be with you because you can't wait any longer for her


My laptop used to read 4hrs when i just bought it now its 2hrs. I was wondering maybe its the way of charging or is it just natural that the battery dies out like that. The laptop is only 3 months old.

It depends on how much work you are giving to laptop.\n\nWatching movies drains laptop faster \nburning DVD drains faster\n\nPlaying games (simulation ) drains faster \n\nBut the drastic change when your work is consistent .. signifies a not so good battery..\n\nBatteries do die out, but over a period of year or 2


The dental condition I have is failure of the upper caninines to come down.  I'm 34 now and insurance only covers up to age 19.  I need to correct, but cannot afford braces.  Thought maybe there was an instution that works with this defect since it only happens to about 2 percent of the population.  Thanks.

There are no such financial aids to my knowledge.  However, see if there is a dental school in your area.  You can get all the services for a fraction of the cost.  The work is done by students near the end of their training and they are supervised the entire time.  Might be an affordable option for you.\n\nA family with money issues that I knew in Michigan had all their dental work done at a dental school and were very pleased with them.

I have a Netgear wireless router, 2 Gateway laptops and a Brother MFC-210C MultiFunction Printer/Copier/scanner/fax.\n\nIf I connectthe printserver to the Netgear, and then use s USB port on the Linksys to plug in the Brother MFC-210C, shouldn't I be able to get that to work?

As you said, if you connect the Linksys printserver to the Netgear wireless router and connect the printer to the Linksys printserver it should work.

My college club sold cookie dough for a fundraiser and later they decided that most of the funds would go to the person who made the sale.  I think that this is dishonnest.  Am I right?

Uh, what do you mean, the person who made the sale?  The person who thought it up?  Or did one person do everything?  If the latter is the case, then maybe they should get a LITTLE extra, but not most of it.  The idea of a CLUB fundraiser is to raise money for a CLUB, not for a person.  Duh.


School is in New york state. The bus does not provide transportation to current school since we moved. Students are seniors.

Usually, the school district will want the students to start attending the other district you moved into.  To avoid this, you can always get a Post office box (in the old district) and use that as your permanent address/mailing address.  Start driving the kids to school if you want to keep them in the same district.\n\nAt the beginning of the year, my husband and I were staying with my parents for a couple months until our house was available to move into.  Because of that, we were in a different school district but we still drove our daughter to school every morning (15 minutes away) so she wouldn't have to change schools or miss any school.  We moved back into the district but to avoid any problems, we kept a mailing address in the old district even while we were gone.

I have been hanging out with this girl for about two or three weeks straight and i really do like her but do not know it she feels the same about me. How do i figure that out? How also can i take the relationship to the next step. "like sex and other" Thanks in advance

Well, there is nothing better than just pure simple honesty. Just ask her what she thinks of you. Second about the sex part, don't rush into it. If you really like this girl, you will go on her terms and wait until she is ready for it. Just have fun and enjoy her company. If its meant to be it will happen.


Do these losers emerge into doctors, lawyers or descend into a life of crime? I'm just curious. I haven't seen any of the bulies with whom I cam in contact growing up.

Most childhood bullies often grow up to be wife-beaters, there's this kid I know, He and his dad dont like eachother very much, so the kid got revenge by trashing his dad's car. The kid also beats up other kids for no reason at all. Some bullies will grow up and still be bullies, others should straighten out and fly right. Like someone on a different question said before, a good Marine Trainer would straighten that bully out. Hardly any of them become successful in life.


It seems to me that the problems in our health system are a lack of supply creating big demand and big dollars.  Why doesn't our government simply increase the number of doctors, nurses and medical practitioners.  What is holding them back?  Don't say its money - they spend $700 billion on health care services now.

It takes a special person to go into medicine, especially Nursing.  Its a hard job that most don't want to do.  Would you like to clean old, sick people all day?  Doctors need to have a decade of schoooling just to specialize.  So they are in debt big time when they come out.  Plus the crazy amounts of money people win in malpractice suits stop a lot of doctors from practicing medicine.  They just can't afford the insurance.


im very uncomterble about me and my gf when i grench kiss her she seems upset but if she likes it and i stop she might be sad i dont honestly know help shes heheimpretty5 i think

I'm glad it's illegal and hope it continues to be so.  I think it'd be the start of a downward spiral.  If we okay marijuana, how long before we start making other drugs legal too?

If it was just true marijuana by itself maybe it wouldn't be as bad as alcohol.  But now it's mixed with all the other stuff and then it's just a introduction to the true brain rot that's out there.  If people want to be human vegetables for the rest of their life take dope.  If you want to be healthy mentally and physically don't do drugs, period.  Good question.

If you talk to the judge and explain your situtation odds are he will let you do community service to pay it off.  The price you get paid per hour for doing it varies between $7 and $15 an hour depending on where you live.  So if community service pays 10bucks and hour and you have a thousand dollars to pay off, you are looking at 100 hours of community service.

You know Greek Fire you mix certain chemicals together then put the chemicals on fire and then the more water you add to the fire the bigger the flames get and the fire spreads.  It was used in the Middle Ages.

Greek fire (also called Byzantine fire, wildfire and liquid fire, Greek Υγρό Πυρ, igró pir) was a weapon used by the Byzantine Empire, said to have been invented by a Syrian Christian refugee named Kallinikos (Callinicus) of Heliopolis (Syria), probably about 673.\nThe ingredients, process of manufacture and usage were a very carefully guarded military secret, so secret it remains a source of speculation to this day. Speculations include:\n\n    * naptha, niter, sulfur\n    * petroleum, quicklime, sulfur\nThese ingredients were apparently heated in a cauldron, and then pumped out through a siphon or large syringe, known as a siphonarios mounted on the bow of the ship. It could also be used in hand grenades, made of earthenware vessels. If a pyrophoric reaction was involved, perhaps these grenades contained chambers for the fluids, which mixed and ignited when the vessel broke on impact with the target.


id like to create an alternate personality that  i can switch on and off for doing my homework and stuff...so we could do two different things at one...like he does my math homework with my left hand and i could do my history homework with my right hand...man this would be cool...

What you are talking about is a little weird, but you can sort of do it.  It isn't by creating alternative personalities.  That only exists in rare psychological illnesses.  But you can train yourself to do two things at once, and you can train your left hand to do one thing, your right hand another.  But you better be damn smart.  I have read of a few people that smart and had one college professor like that.


Where does the word quarterback, safety, tight end, etc., in football come from?

Link below has history and references - apparently US football adapted British Rugby rules - which accounts for some of the names:\n\nthe term quarterback has its origin in Scottish rugby, wherein backfield players, according to their customary distance behind the forwards, were designated "quarter back" (i.e. 1/4 of the way back), "half back", and "full back". Eventually in rugby the English-Irish nomenclature prevailed, with halfback, three-quarters back, and fullback; in some places the term "five-eighths back" is used as well.


ok , a friend of mine gave up his job to look after and raise his gorgeous twins. His wife earned more money than him so she went back to work(a shared decision) This was 5 yrs ago , anyhow it turns out that she has been having an affair for the last 3yrs, My mate went to see a lawyer and has been told it's unlikely he will stay in the marital home, unlikely he will get custody of the twins, unlikely he will get a fair settlemeny when the divorce goes through, unlikely he will get any alimony. Well ladies , it seems you do rule the world, this is blatant sexism, if this was the other way around dont you all think the settlement would be different!  IT STINKS

Okay, first... I understand the wife had an affair and your friend is hurt & angry.  That being said, what is it that the wife wants?  Is she prepared to participate in a legal battle that could drag on for years, draining income?  \n\nYour friend and his wife should make an attempt to settle this between them without a costly court battle.  Perhaps the wife is willing to compromise, and shared legal/physical custody could be arranged.  I'm certain there is much more to this story than you could tell in a paragraph.  For example, did she work to put him through university?  Did he work to put her through school?  There are many different circumstances, but it is not unheard of for a woman to pay spousal support to her ex.  She will definitely fight that, but they may agree on shared custody of the kids and if the husband babysits the children while the wife is at work, I can certainly see paying him for his time instead of spousal support.  Compromise is the name of the game when it comes to a dissolution of marriage.  \n\nMy condolences to your friend.


I am on probation for 3 years for a Domestic Violence crime, and I want to know what kind of test they will most likely give me when I check into probation. Is it going to be a urine test, blood test or saliva test? Anyone had any experience with this? I have officialy checked in only 1 time so far, but I check in once every month. Anyone have any clue?

If your probation worker is worth his salt he'll mandate you attend a counseling program for batterers. Group counseling is most effective. I worked with victims of domestic violence for 11 years. \n\nThere may be home visits and ongoing checks of your police record. Your po might check on you in the evening, on the weekend or holidays. They may also do random drug and/or alcohol testing. This information comes from the State of Illinois, Lake County.


Can someone provide me with a link to see her, the size and also if they are fake or real. Probally more than likely going to be fake.


were arguing the legality of registering hands of a black belt and fights in general

Here is what makes something a federal offense:  If it was committed on federal property, if it was against a federal official or employee, or the offense takes place in more than one state (like a kidnapping where the child is taken across state lines), or, in some instances having a large quantity of drugs.  Most crimes people commit are considered state crimes, except in those instances.  Kicking someone really hard does not make something federal.  Think about this logically - most murder cases are state cases.

this is after the fielder has caught a ground ball

Yes, it's the same as if the 2nd baseman or shortstop grabs a ground ball and steps on the base.  When the player has control of the ball it essentially becomes a part of his body.  Any part of him could touch the base and the runner would be called out.


I'm in Fayetteville, Arkansas and it is sunny. I wish it would rain all day.

I'm in Hampton Roads, VA and we're having one of those gorgeous Spring thunderstorms.  My apartment complex is real junk so none of the gutters work very well and water is overflowing and shooting everywhere.  Of course all the trees are a really nice soft green color, I think because we had a unfortunately mild Winter.  It's so dark, but the lightning is hard to see through all this rain; however, there's some really excellent thunder.

What is the Significance of Absolute % return and Compounded Annualised % return in the selection of a scheme of a Mutual Fund???

Absolute Return is the return that an asset achieves over a period of time. This measure simply looks at the appreciation or depreciation that an asset make over a period of time.\n\nHowever return is not the same every year, A mutual fund  might be up 40% one year and down 5% the next. Compound Annual Return provides the annual return for such an investment as if it had grown at a steady, even pace. In other words, it tells you how much you would have to earn each year, compounded on your principal to arrive at the final selling value. \n\nFor example if you buy some mutual fund for $1000, 1 year later it is worth $1100, the absolute return for first year is 10%. At the end of year 2, it become worth $1440, the absolute return for second year is 30.9% (340/1100). But in term of compound annual return, it is 20% for these 2 years period. 1st year $1000x1.2=$1200, 2nd year $1200x1.2=$1440.


I am a Heat fan. If the Heat meet the Detroit Pistons in the ECF, what or who would be Detroit's weakest link that Miami can take advantage of so that they can possibly beat them in a seven-game series?

Many experts will say that the bench is the weakest link on the Pistons. The bench does not need to score a lot for the Pistons to win. As long as the bench goes out every night and shows up, Detroit will be fine throughout the playoffs. Against the Heat, the main problem is obviously Shaq. This is when we will really see the bench's depth. The Pistons have multiple big men that they can throw at Shaq, making it a long series for the big fella.
