which one is come first internet or intranet.who invent internet and intranet.what is the basic feature of intranet.

An intranet is an internal private network inside a company, a school, or another organization that uses Internet-based technology. For example, you might have a web based database for employees to access private information. If it is a true intranet, it will not be accessible in any way from outside the company. The benefit is that the Internet-based application technology makes it accessible 1) from most any platform and 2) from most any office in the company - without too much slowdown from WAN links.\n\nAs to which came first, the Internet came first. That's where the web technology was born that intranets use. However, do keep in mind that local networks were around long before the Internet, but they used different protocols and application technology.


I am in college and we are doing a mock ard and I am the speech specialist.  Short scenario, Joe is labled Mild MR and SI.  He is an 8th grader with Down Syndrome and is getting ready to attend high school.  He is currently being served with Direct Inclusion in the Mainstream except for Reading/Language Arts.  He is in the band and is involved in regular education.

An ARD is what the folks in Texas call their Annual Review/IEP meeting. (Texas is a whole other country). It stands for Admission, Review, or Dismissal. Crazy.\n\nTo answer the original question, you will need to be more specific. Are you developing the IEP at this meeting and deciding placement? What is Joe's transistion plan? As the speech specialist you will probably be responsible for developing speech goals and objects, the speech modifications and accomadations page and explaining any speech evaluations that have been done.


The more questions I ask and answer the more entrys I have!\nbut uhh...yeah...how about them dodgers?

haha thats the only reason i'm responding in here 2. my dad and i looooooove soccer! so who u go 4?

check this sight out it should help good luck


So what is wrong with heightened security checks at airports for individuals fitting the description of the terrorists? Does this really violate their rights?

Well, the people who bombed the building in Oklahoma City were white Americans.  Guess you should profile them too.


Here i go again...(u might want to draw this out) so  you have a circle. A is on the outside and C is on the outside, both are between the top and bottom of the circle. Then B is on the top, on the side where C is at. There a diagonal line from A and B in the inside of the circle. Then from A to C there is a line. in the middle of that line( A to C) it's point O- the middle of the circle. Angle A is 28 degrees. What is the measure of the arc BC? \n\nIf you don't understand something please tell me.\nThanks A lot! in advanced.

I think what you're trying to explain is that all points A,B,C are on the cirumference of a circle, with the line AC being a diameter of the circle.\n\nThis forms a right angled triangle with the right angle at point B. That's just a rule of circle geometry when 1 side of a triangle in a circle is a diameter. By angle sum of a triangle, the angle at C must be 62 degrees.\n\nDraw in the line 0B, forming an iscoceles triangle OBC, since OB and OC are equal radii. In this triangle, angles at B and C are both 62 degrees, so angle at centre is 56 degrees. This is the angle that subtends the arc you want to find.\n\nIf you want the arc length you need the radius and use the formula\nl = 2 * pi * r * 56 / 360


Just have a few questions on the experiment of partition coefficient of butanedioic acid between water and diethyl ether. I wonder why it is necessary to add about 10cm3 of distilled water to the 10cm3 of the ethereal solution before titration with the sodium hydroxide. Moreover, I would like to know why the separating funnel must be shaked after the water and diethylether were mixed. Thanks!

Butanedioic acid is an organic compound.  It is somewhat polar (COOH acid groups), but has significant nonpolar portions.  These nonpolar portions make it harder for the compound to dissolve in water.\n\nEther is chemically similar in that it has polar and nonpolar portions.  Also the COOH groups can H-bond to the O in the ether (CH3CH2-O-CH2-CH3)\n\nWater is all polar.\n\nIf you mix water and ether, they form two phases, one water rich and one ether rich phase.  I would guess that the acid is more soluble in the ether than in the water.  However, IONIC compounds are much more soluble in water than in organic solvents, such as ether.  The addition of sodium hydroxide to the mixture causes the acid groups of the butanedioic acid to de-protonate, forming COO- ions.  This makes the butanedioic acid much more soluble in water than ether, and it will move to the water phase.\n\nIn order to move from one phase to another, the compound in solution must diffuse to the interface between the water and ether and then diffuse across the interface.  If you shake the funnel, you increase the surface area of the interface and also decrease the distance the compound must diffuse to get to the interface.  Shaking the funnel makes the system get to equilibrium faster if the initial state is not in equilibrium.


My bf has been after me to get one, and his birthday is comming up and I want to suprise him.

There is an online boutique called pantiesareus.com that has more French Maids than I have ever seen.  I have tow and they must have at least eight of them, from the skimpy little lingerie kind, to regular ones to go out in public.\n\nJust look under Funwear - Adult Costumes.


You are given the value of the distance between Na Cl: it is 2.80 x 10^-8 mL \n\nPLEASE SOME CHEMIST!!!! HELP MEEEEEEE

why dont you just ask avogrado for there number.  if they see you are a nice person, just talk to them.  let them know you want to get to know them better and would like there number.


why ?? do you think i look nice or something else???please answer this question!!???

probb cuz you look like a nice genorus person that likes to joke around and have fun


I'm hot, kind and smart, but guys never notice. How do I get them to without looking like a slut? (GUYS ONLY!!)

I got my guy to notice me by being MYSELF. If you have to change the way for a guy to like you than hes not worth it.


I am in love with a girl and I am in 7th grade. She's moving at the end of the school year. I really love her. She is beautiful and she has a great personality. I need people's help on this relationship! All my friends here are trying, but its not working well, so I need other people's advice. So... if any of you could help me, please answer this question. Thanks so much.....................\nDrew

Drew, you are in 7th grade . . . what do you know about love.  I know I didn't know s*** about love.   \n\nYou should be more focus on yourself . . . instead of getting into relationships anyways.\n\nIf you want my advice to keep her . . . ignore her . . . do not spend a lot of attention on her.  Be unreliable.  Women want things they can not have.


And if neither of these people seem particularly comical to you, what celebrity WOULD you make fun of?

Flava Flav - That poor boy is nothing but U.G.L.Y. He thinks he is still able to attract groupies for some strange reason. I think that I would laugh at all of them girls that actually KISSED him on TV too. YUCK!! They all need some mouth wash!


A)Just between you and I, I am not impressed by our manager. B)Be sure to divide all income from the suburban property between he and I. C) I sat between him and her during the sales conference. D) I hope she will keep this between she and I.

A.  No --  you and me.\n\nB.  No -- him and me\n\n\nC.  Yes!  I sat between him and her.  Which way is correct:  1)  I sat between they.  2)  I sat between them.\n\nObviously, it's number two.  "Them" is an object pronoun, so that is what is required in the sentence.  "Him" and "her" are object pronouns.\n\nD.  No -- her and me.  Again, substitute:\n\n1)  I hope she will keep this between we.\n\n2)  I hope she will keep this between us.\n\nIs that any clearer?


Which one do you like more why? If someone has those tracks in his collection listen to them again to answer with fresh view :)

I  masturbate regularly but i do not get aroused to the maximum and also the amount of ejaculate is very less.I would like to know about different methods of arousal and methods by which i can ejaculate the maximum load.

Gee, I guess the previous posters think everything's a joke. One method is to stroke yourself up to the point of climax, but then stopping. Wait awhile, do it again, etc. These 'mini sessions' may cause you to shoot more when you finally let it rip.

I believe somebody is not telling the truth here... what's really going on...

This is very simple. President Bush need some body like Osama to be alive and hiding to get a cause to attack any country.


It seems a shame that the old glamour associated with Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, and Bridgette Bardot is gone.

In the older movies, guys all wore hats, women wore dresses and sometimes wore gloves. Are we too minimalist now? The emphasis then was less on perfect form, like abs and b**bs, but was more facial. Will it ever come back? Probably not. Hip-hop is the driving force of the next generations fashion and sensibility.


i know what it's for it's to get closer to God have a relationship with him, know his word, and how to deal with everyday problems, and most of all to know the way. i just wanna know everyones openion.

This is hard because there are so many differnt religons and each one has there own bible that says differnt thigns.. but it is the same pricipal for you to know Gods words.  and it is true to be closer to him...

Everything, especially reflections off glass, looks surreal, I kinda like it.

Normally.. everyday use....How do polarized sunglasses work? Well, we are all aware of the fact that light reflection from surfaces like a flat road or smooth water has a horizontal polarization. Such horizontally polarized light is then blocked by the polarizers in the lenses which are vertically oriented. Thus, we can ensure proper eye protection.\n\nThere has been no clear evidence that NIGHT driving with polarized glasses does any good.


I have problems in finding the suitable pant and trouser for myself because my thighs is huge.I hope I can get to know the right exercises to slim down the fats.

hmm... exerices is the only way to get rid off it..and try not to eat junk food..thats the #1 cuz for getting ittt.. and bike ride or roller blade a lottt.. this will sure help u..and its fun as well!!!!!!!!!!


i really need it my homework is killing me plz help me guys

Surface Area of a Cylinder = 2 pi r 2 + 2 pi r h\n\n(h is the height of the cylinder, r is the radius of the top) \n\nSurface Area = Areas of top and bottom +Area of the side \n\nSurface Area = 2(Area of top) + (perimeter of top)* height \n\nSurface Area = 2(pi r 2) + (2 pi r)* h \n\nIn words, the easiest way is to think of a can. The surface area is the areas of all the parts needed to cover the can. That's the top, the bottom, and the paper label that wraps around the middle. \n\nYou can find the area of the top (or the bottom). That's the formula for area of a circle (pi r2). Since there is both a top and a bottom, that gets multiplied by two. \n\nThe side is like the label of the can. If you peel it off and lay it flat it will be a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is the product of the two sides. One side is the height of the can, the other side is the perimeter of the circle, since the label wraps once around the can. So the area of the rectangle is (2 pi r)* h. \n\nAdd those two parts together and you have the formula for the surface area of a cylinder. \n\nSurface Area = 2(pi r 2) + (2 pi r)* h


I am really into this guy who seems like my total opposite.  Is it possible he is the ying to my yang?  Did this ever happen to you?  If so, did you or didn't you act on your attraction?  What were the results?  If you didn't act on your attraction, did you regret it?

Ever here the expression "opposites attract?"  I married my total opposite almost 9 years ago, and we're still going strong.  I think that when you get together with your opposite you sort of even each other out.  It's almost like we compliment each other.  We each bring something different into the relationship and that keeps things interesting.


(read it with Italian accent) I am an Italiano. One day ima gonna L.A. to bigga hotel. Ina morning I go down to eat breakfast. I tella waitress I wanna two pisses toast. She brings me only one piss. I tella her I want two piss. She say go to t he toilet. I say you no understand, I wanna two piss onna my plate. She say you better no piss onna plate, you sonna ma bich. I don't even know the lady and she call me sonna ma bich. Later I go to eat at the bigga restaurant. The waitress brings m e a spoon and knife but no fock. I tella her I wanna fock. She tell me everyone wanna fock. I tella her you no understand. I wanna fock on the table. She say you better not fock on the table, you sonna ma bich. So I go back to my room ina hotel and there is no "SHIIT" onna my bed.  I call the manager and tella him I wanna    "SHIIT". He tell me to go to toilet. I say you no understand. I wanna  "SHIIT" on my bed.     He say you better not    "SHIIT" onna bed, you sonna ma bich. I go to the checkout and the man at the desk say: "Peace on you." I say piss on you too, you sonna ma bich, I gonna back to Italy!

haha that was great. my little sister probably thinks im a retard cus i read it out loud with and accent haah.


My Friend's sister wants to be a nurse in Iraq for our troops, she already sent in her form and everything, but now shes not sure she wants to do it anymore, will anything happen if she decides that she does not want to do it? Will she get fined? or can she just tell them that she changed her mind? Thanks.

Well it depends. Is she going as part of one of the branches (army, navy, airforce)? I am assuming she is not, since the process to be in them is quite particular. If she is a nurse, therefore she has a degree but it doesn't sound like she is an Office eiher. But if that's the case, she cannot get out of it. That's considered dessertion and you go to jail for it. \nIf she is going to Iraq as a Nurse working for the goverment contractors she can get out of it. Most likely she signed a contract, tell her to read very well the clause about rescinding the contract. I have knows of people going to Iraq and stayed less than the contract stated. The only loss or "fine" is that she would have to pay taxes for whatever she earned while being out there. You have to be over 3 months to consider your income "tax free" while being there...Hope this helps! Good Luck!


Tell Me in 10 Words or Less, \nWhat is the best thing sbout your life?


It can be dirty, stupid, weird, as long as it's rude! The opposite of proper etiquette!

I had been in an accident that left me with shattered front teeth. I was self-conscious about it. Before I could get them fixed, some jackass (a complete stranger) walked up to me and very coldly said, "Your teeth look sooooo stupid. Why do you walk around looking like that? You'd better get those teeth fixed RIGHT NOW because your f**ked-up face is making me want to puke." I was really embarrassed. Did he think that I didn't realize that my dental work was messed up? There are little things called "appointments" that you have to make with doctors to get things done, you know. I had to wait until the dental clinic could get me in for that large a repair job, because it was going to be a rather long ordeal. Anyway, that comment was the absolute last thing I needed to hear.


he was my classmate before and known that you im kinda serious in my studies...knows my philosophy about love,"its the brain u must use not your heart"...and people dont believe that im that ignorant/wholesome with a bf/gf relationship..

He flirts with you, brushes his arm against you or touches you lightly on the arm, blushes, finds ways to run into you, you feel "tension" between you when he's around, you catch him staring at you, he strikes up conversations with you.  Check out his body language.  Does his face light up when you're near?  Does he try to get close/sit close to you?  Is he wearing cologne more often?  Some shy guys you'll never know if they like you because they're that shy.  Just approach him.  Start spending more time together.  Do fun activities together....not an official date, but just hanging out.  Start flirting with him and see what happens.  You may have to make the first move if he's too shy.  Good luck!


It is called capitalism. We use it because any other way of living did not work out in the long run. Communism,feudalism, it just did´nt work out. It is the only progressive way of living


Weren't we supposed to have flying cars and metallic bodysuits and mile-high buildings and daytrips to Jupiter by the year 2000?  Who feels gypped?

Lets hope we don't get them anytime soon. We have enough trouble with people not being able to control automobiles and trucks. Can you imagine the havoc if people were out flying around with the same degree of care and skill they use in their vehicles? \n\nMaking things fly takes a lot more energy than just making them move. Flying cars would hardly be considered green machines.

CAN YOU SOLVE THIS FOR ME PLEEEEAAAAASEEEEEEEE (even just one will be helpful) :D\n\n\n#1 The nickels and dimes had a value of $5.75. If there were 70 coins in all, how many were nickels?\n\n#2Karamuga had 60 nickels and dimes whose value was $5. How many of each kind of coin did he have.\n\n#3 The fishmonger sold codfish for 7 pence each and mussels for 1 pence each. If Harriet bought a total of 26 items and spent 86 pence, how many codfish did she buy?\n\nTHANKS :D

They're all solved the same way.  Here's the first one.\n\n#1:  n is # of nickels; d is # of dimes\nn + d = 70;  n = 70 - d\n5n + 10d = 575\n5(70 - d) + 10d =575\n350 + 5d = 575\n5d = 225\nd = 45; n = 25\n\n#2:  Set it up and solve it just like the first one\n\n#3:  In the first two, the value of a nickel was 5 and the value of a dime was 10.  In this one, the value of a cod is 7 and the value of a mussel is 1.  Solve it the same way as the other two.\n\nRemember, anybody can make a mistake at this.  Always check your answer.  If you do, you can't be wrong.


Why doesn't the US just make Puerto Rico a state? We already claim it as a US territory, so why not make it a state then?

Probably doesn't want to pay for government agencies, taxes, & welfare to be put there.  Also, it would radically change the presidential election voting process.


I would like to know if you can accurately measure the pitch of the blub, blub blubs you get when filling a container with liquid!??  If you can measure them, does water create the same pitch as other liquids?? Is the pitch dependent on the size and or shape of the container being filled? So if one bottle was 6cm high and there was another identical bottle but it was 7cm high, would the final blub of the taller bottle be higher?  Help - I need to know!!!!! :-))\n\nI've tried emailing Brainiac but it keeps coming back - any advice on that!??!?

I suspect that blub frequency (I'm referring to a poonk sound) is determined more by air cavity size than characteristics of water, and is affected by the container's maximum dimension. This means the final blub probably wouldn't be consistently different in tall and short (but otherwise identical) bottles since the long dimension of the air cavity has shrunk to a minimum.\nThe reason I believe it's not water vibrations is that water in typical sized containers seems to vibrate in a higher frequency range (example, playing a water-filled stemware glass). This may not be completely relevant, but in some air/liquid situations you perceive more of a boink than a blub or a poonk. That's an upward sweep in frequency which I'd bet indicates a shrinking air cavity.\nAs far as measuring the frequency, I'd suggest first identifying a pitch. You probably can train your ear to find a pitch if you can't already. Then find a musical instrument and try to match the pitch. Assume A natural above middle C is 440 Hz (or you won't be far off if you assume middle C is 256 Hz), and go from there. An octave higher is twice the frequency, and a half-tone is a ratio of 2^(1/12) or about 1.06.


...when Bush and Blair WOULD HAVE LEFT SADDAM IN POWER if he compied with weapons inspectors. Even if you disagree with the war, what possible answers could pro-war people give?

it can't. despite how bush supporters will respond to this question and say "Germany took years" or "Korea didn't happen overnight", these are simply talking points from the GOP and not part of any serious discussion.\n\njust ask yourself one question:  has ANY invasion or war been about philanthropy?  it will take some reading, and you will have to read from centrists and historians who have no bias towards America nor particularly the nationalists or the right, but you can find a plethora of evidence that shows NO COUNTRY GOES TO WAR TO HELP ANOTHER COUNTRY.  it is always about economics.  always always always.  \n\nforget the details, forget what Saddam did or how bad bush hated Saddam or did we know there were WMD. don't get confused by any of these details you'll never understand nor get the straight story on.  just understand the overall picture. the US is as selfish a nation as any,  and everything we do is for selfish economic reasons, period.  have you ever heard "follow the money"  gee, why does that formula work?  because everything is about money! duh. \n\nit may be about oil and Halliburton, it may be because AIPAC bought off our government to protect Israel, it may be about stocks, it may be about any of these things, but one thing is for damn sure: it was not to free ANYONE.


I am very prude and have major relationship issues. It is not that I have issues with maintaining a relationship but that I have an uncapability to understand body language and therefore let out to people that I am flirting with them and and interested in them. (I cannot tell when I do this, obviously.) Furthermore, it takes me months (and once, even more than a year) to gain an interest in someone. \n\n How do I give them the general idea that I only want to be friends and that it does take ages for me to like someone? (Any advice on the body language and speech would be very much appreciated). Thanks!

Tell them staright that your are friends. and do not want to take the next stepor you can tel them a lie that you are intrested in some1 else. tellthem as a friend do not try telling them straight they will then let the matter rest and do not try to get u to like them.\ntake cdare !


Are you satisfied with yourself, or could you look better, act better, etc.

I am highly satisfied with most of the aspects of my personality, and I find my appearance very pleasing, but there is always room for improvement, and I am apt to make mistakes as I am a human being.


I want to look taller what can i do..........

wearing clothes with vertical cut or bands will help you to look much taller.m \nwearing long-heeled shoes can be useful too for looking much taller.\nhaving much self -confidence and walking streight enough is recommended too .


Is this theoretically possible?  Can the universe (infinity) be likened to a grain of sand?

Like with football and everything thing. That has been a national school sport for the longest time. Don't you think that they should change things a bit?

No - football and basketball teach young people teamwork and how to work within a system, and learn from those who know more than them (coaches, upper-classmen). Skateboarding promotes none of those things.


Has a team ranked #8 in the playoffs ever beat a #1 team in the first round to move on to the second round? Did the #8 team ever win the playoffs?

Only two 8th seeded teams have managed to beat the 1st Seeded Team: The Denver Nuggets eliminating the Seattle Supersonics 3-2 in 1994; and the New York Knicks eliminating the Miami Heat 3-2 in 1999, in addition, the Knicks also became the first 8th seeded team to reach the NBA Finals, but they lost to the Spurs.

The Planet Earth is roughly 4.55 billion years old - fact.\n\nMy question is: if God has existed forever and ever, what was he doing for the infinite number of years beforehand? \n\nWas he creating planets and life in other solar systems?  After all, from the billions and trillions of planets out there, with their own suns and moons, it's impossible for Earth to be the only one with life.\n\nI'm just curious on everyone's thoughts... or does the bible say what God did to pass the boredom for the billions of years preceding Earth's creation.

This is a great question. I can't wait to see the bizarre answers the Bible thumpers will give.  Those people crack me up. Notice that not one of them will give an answer remotely making any sense.


He was/is a very unique character actor...  Just curious....

I checked the following website, he's still alive.  It lists all movies, TV, etc. he has been in.


When a block of volume 1.00 × 10–3 m3 is hung from a spring scale as shown in Figure A, the scale reads 10.0 N. When the same block is then placed in an unknown liquid, it floats with 2/3 of its volume submerged as suggested in Figure B. The density of water is 1.00 × 103 kg/m3.\nDetermine the mass of the block and the density of the unknown liquid?

ok, i'm assuming that the block is being hung into water. otherwise the problem's too easy.\nso 1.00x10^-3 m3 of water will be 1 kg, or 9.8 N. thus block weighs 19.8 N or 2.02 kg.\nThen, 2/3*1.00x10^-3 = vol of unknown liquid displaced = 6.67x10^-4 m3. since its floating, we also know that amount of liquid weighs 19.8N, or 2.02 kg, so 2.02kg/6.67x10^-4 = 3.03x10^3 kg/m3\nI hope that's right.


Besides just kiss him and youll find out because i tried that but instead of kissing him i accidentally headbutted him in the nose and I had to run away scared and I havent talked to him since.

Instead of building a fence, why not build a canal similar to the panama canal , but one which is large enough to handle the larger ships today.  Not only would this stop most of the illegal border crossings, but if we let china operate it as they are the old panama canal, I seriously doubt if they would allow any unauthorized entry into their area.

I don't think a Canal in the U.S.-Mexican border is financially viable...Panama Canal is only 88 km long from ocean to ocean and there are already plans to expand to receive post-panamax vessels.  By the way, Chinese do not run the Panama Canal, it is run by Panamanians through the Panama Canal Authority.


I have so much trouble just DOING my homework.  I can start it but I end up fiddling around with other things or just staring off into space.  Any suggestions to help me stay on task???

Prioritize. If you KNOW you have a deadline to get homework or another task done, give yourself a time frame to do it and reward yourself with a small treat to accomplish that end. It might be a favorite food or drink, watching a movie or simply reading a good book. Stay focusedl...you CAN do it!


i know it depends on the professor, but how is this class in general?

Sociology is a great subject.  It was my minor in college (BS, Psychology, University of Houston), so I took several sociology-based classes.  I think you'll find it interesting, especially when your instructor starts to cover the various sociological theories and how they apply to your everyday life.


WHAT  DOSE  "O"  mean?  oh  boy?  or  orange  juice or  ok?

It's short for an explicit word that younger adults should not be concerned with. Probably a polite thing to do on the poster of the questions part.


more relations between grid system and atmospheric discharges

Other than direct discharges from lightning, fluctuations in the magnetic field can generate currents in the electrical grid.  This happens as a result of solar activity such as solar wind and flares bombarding the Earth's magnetic field causing it to flex.\n\nLong distance transmission lines are especially vulnerable to this as their length is enough to act as a generator from the magnetic changes.

I'm looking for a queer perspective on Indiana, particularly the Bloomington area.  My girlfriend and I might be moving there in August, and I want to know what it is like for gay folks, in particular a bisexual couple.  Is the city/region liberal or judgemental?  How about stuff like gay bars or liberal coffee houses?  Is it the kind of place where I would have to worry about being bashed?  Any and all you can tell would be helpful.

Howdy!  I currently live in Bloomington and my partner and I are both bi.  The university community is the San Francisco of the midwest, the rest of the town is pretty liberal compared to the rest of Indiana.  Bloomington is a blast and pretty safe.  You can usually find us dancing at Bullwinkle's on Friday night, and you can sip away with fellow liberals at Soma coffee house.  Let me know if you need a tour guide!

Numbers are infinite therefore there is no "biggest number".


It has only been for the last 3 weeks, and i am left handed so i dont write with it

You could possibly have carpal tunnel syndrome. Next time your hand goes numb, see what fingers go numb. Carpal Tunnel will only numb the thumb, index, and middle finger. Rarely your index finger, and never your pinky.


i have no idea what you are asking but if that is what you want to do then do it


how can they say that jsut becasue the language is real and that it is dated to that time, that it is real. Don't you need more evidence than that.

You can say the same thing about the bible.  Other than faith there is nothing to say it is true just because some of the stuff mentioned existed in that time doesn't make the whole book true.


This small town had to abandon its recreation program when two of its largest employers closed their doors. They have lost 25% of their tax base. The need for recreation is still there and there has recently been a large influx of spanish speaking citizens.

There are many government grants published on a regular basis for just this very kind of thing. You need to find someone experienced in searching for them and writing grant proposals to donate their time and efforts to your cause.\n\nIn the meantime, talk to the county you're in about programs they have.  Write letters to large corporations like Wal-Mart and other industries in neighboring areas.  They usually have budgets set aside for community activism.


Im serious this isn't just ment as an insult

I think religious people are just under-educated.  I was raised in a strict Lutheran home, and I sounded just like all the religious folk on this site when I talked.  I went off to college and learned a lot about the world I live in and gradually drifted away.  I still believe in a God of some sort, I'll even go as far as saying I still believe in the Christian God, but I will never again subscribe to any organized religion.  There are just too many questions the church has no good answer for, and as an educated person, I need answers.  I think if everyone branched out and learned about all the things they could, there would be far fewer religious people in this world.  It's easy to soak up everything a pastor or preacher says to you if you don't know any better.


Isn't protesting the US, yet claiming to want to become a citizen while waving your own native country's flag, somehwhat hypocritical?

Why do we wave our flags? Because we are proud of our culture and hiratage.  Just because we wave our flags, doesnt meant that want to be americans.  I consider myself a Hispanic American, and proud of both of my culture.  I am a Iraqi Veteran, and there are thousands of Latinos,Asian, European immigrants who were was illegal in the military who are serving this country. Some whom are dying for this country, who love the  USA, but we are also Latinos and we will never forget our country because that what makes us who we are.  Latinos are not just Mexican there Domincans, Honduran, Colombians, Peruvian just to name a few, and alot of them are the ones that are coming back from war. If they want to wave their country flags, so what. Is not causing any damn harm to you.  I will continue to wave my damn flag and can nobody tell me that I am not a US citizen for doing this, because I just like many immigrants have given a lot to this country.


To add to the stipulations:\n\nHole in One on a Par 3 regulation Golf Course - 140 Yards or greater.\n\nPerfect Game of 300 in bowling, 12 strikes in a row.\n\nHR in a Minor League Stadium from a live pitcher.

In my opinion i think the perfect game in bowling is the hardest. Why, because you have 12 times the throw a ball down a lane and hope that, each time you throw it, you knock over 10 pins.  I've had better luck getting close to a hole in one the first year i played golf in high school.  The home run would be a little easier for me then any of the others.  Hit one back in high school on a 350 field from a coach that used to play in the minors


My brother's birthday is coming up and we would like to erect a sign at the site of his accident.  I have seen some official looking signs and have not been able to determine how we go about getting one.  I have scanned the Pinellas Gov. site but can not find the info I need.

You may have seen this, but here is a contact form where you could send an inquiry:\nhttp://www.pinellascounty.org/email_form.htm\n\nActually, it may be quicker to call and ask.  There is a list of numbers here:\nhttp://www.pinellascounty.org/phone.htm\n(you may want to try the County Connection Centers or the Board of County Commissioners)\n\nThere should be someone at that county office who can help you out.  Some of the elected representatives can be very willing to help or at least direct you to the right area.  Good luck.


can you please answer these two questions quickly becoz i need to revise them for my exams. They are basically general questions about HRM.

I have a motorola L6, and whilst looking through accessories available, i came across a dongle- in idiot terms, what will it enable me to do and how will i use it?


i don't know for that guy if it has a meaning for him after we did that!and im hoping to have

if you don't know if you really love him then your more then likely just in lust with him. If he has never has stated to you yet what his feeling are for you then it is probably just sex for him with no meaning, which is the way most guys view sex to begin with unless they truly do have strong feelings for the other person, but then they are usually very vocal about those feelings.


u still like ur ex, u're not sure if u still like your ex but ur ex wants to get back together BUT u live so far away from each other... would you get back together, long distance style?

No.   If u dont know- and its long distance- which almost never works- dont even try it.


All I want to know why is this allowed when there is so much of a danger to children that are online. I am in charge of her as of 3/20/2006 and she is nolonger with her Mother who got her started  with this problum and I was under the imprestion that this account was canceled out but I went to use my computer and I found out that she had been online without my knowledge of it til today I can only give you the email address I dont have her password for the my space I do have the home address that may have been givin and the phone number and her true date of birth.  My sister is the one who told the lie.

Your question is essentially "All I want to know why is this allowed...?"\n\nThe answer is, nobody allowed it but you. You made a computer accessible to someone who you do not wish it to be used by.\n\nIf you meant to ask "Why are minors allowed to set up email accounts?" then the answer is, "Because there is no way to ensure that the person on the client's end isn't minor."\n\nIf you want to have her MySpace account removed, there are protocols you can follow on the MySpace FAQ (frequently asked questions).  However, it will be pointless to go through the trouble if she has access to the internet; your home, school, friends, the mall, Kinko's, etc.


my boyfriend asked me 2 marry him 2wks ago. since then we have hardly seen each-other n i have a feeling that he don't love me anymore. what can i do?!!!!!

Well, seems to me you all need to spend some more time together!  IF you all are really serious about getting married then you all should be at that point in your relationship to communicate well with each other.    It's ALL about communication, trust and love.\n\nIt'll put your heart at ease to give him a call and meet up face to face to talk about everything you two are feeling right now.  It's a BIG step to take and everything should be out in the open with you two and comfortable with your decision.\n\nGL hun and hope all works out for you two!


I have a maxtor 200 Gig. External hard drive (USB 2.0) runs fast loads songs and installs stuff fast but will it handle Windows XP On it? Or will it be slow?

I don't think you can put your OS on a removable drive.  Your computer will not recognize the drive at boot time.\n\nIf your computer can recognize a USB drive via BIOS, then you are OK.


I have spent a fortune on all sorts of creams but none of them work. It does not matter how much sleep I get they are always there. Some people in the past have asked me if I had been involved in a fight as they thought I had black eyes. Any advice would be most welcome.

it is my understanding that there is no way to get rid of them. they are genetic.  creams and sleep will do nothing really. they say however using moisturizer  to keep your skin hydrated on a regular basis can slightly lessen the apperance.but they will still be present. the only thing i can tell you is makeup, weather you are male or female a little concealer or base will help. its funny i just read an article about that yesterday.


We would stay in essentially the same orbit around the sun and gravity on earth's surface would remain normal.\nTides would be solar-only, about 1/2 to 1/3 what we have now. (Lunar-only tide amplitude is about twice solar-only tide.) This change would cause a major adjustment to shore life and possibly to birds that travel extensively over ocean waters but would not be disastrous to land-dwellers. Loss of night-time illumination would affect nocturnal animals somewhat, but they do without moonlight for several days per month as it is. Bottom line, not a major threat.


Twice i lost my pregnency because of hypertension. but now i came to know i had TB, is it because of TB i got Hypertension during pregnency. can i deliver a live baby now after my disease is cured. please help me out

Tuberculosis does not affect the vascular system, so it could not cause hypertension.

Is it difficult to produce the software for a personal debit card or is the software already available to purchase and use?

Making the cards is the easy part.  The tough part is contracting with the petrol stations to accept your card.  If you don't have a contract in place your card is worthless.


More specifically, my girlfriend alleges that her menstrual cycle has changed since she began working with all women, and further claims that all women who spend a significant amount of time together will end up having their menstrual cyclces at the same time.  Can anyone provide medical information to substantiate this claim?

Synchronous menstruation was first described in 1971 by researchers McClintock and Stern. It is a proven occurrence, borne out by additional studies.\n\nThough they are still unclear as to exactly why it occurs, the most widely accepted theory is that it is due to pheromones. Others think it's due to some evolutionary carry-over from prehistoric times, when it was common for men to take multiple mates to ensure the survival of the species, but the pheremone theory makes more sense... \n\nSource(s):\n\nMcClintock, M. K. (2000). Human pheromones: primers, releasers, signalers or modulators? In K. Wallen and J. Schneider (Eds.), Reproduction in Context: Social and Environmental Influences on Reproductive Physiology and Behavior. MIT Press. Pp. 355-420.\n\nMcClintock, M. K. (1998).

Because today, my friend farted and it was all high-pitched and sounded like it was saying "FREEEEEE!" and I had one when I was about 12 that sounded like it said "Uh-oh!"

Yes many a times fart sound like words. Its like imagining shapes in the clouds. You hear what you want to hear. If you are about to propose you hear 'YESSSSSSSSS" farts, a child is asked about a sheep, he hears the 'BAAAA' farts, if u are seeing a film on snakes u hear 'HISSSSSSSSSSS" farts


Hi, I am running the half marathon for my first time.  However, I am more of an intermediate runner.  I am not really going for speed/time this time around--I just want to be in good shape and have better endurance.  also, how many rest days should I have a week?

I did my first half marathon after a season of cross country.  We never did a run longer than about 8 miles that season yet I felt great during the half marathon.  With the cross country team I ran an average of five days a week from anywhere between 4 and 8 miles.  Sometimes we'd have a race on Saturday or I'd run a 5k or 10k on the weekends on my own.  If you're not going for a speed or time, just have fun with your training and be sure to run 5-6 days a week.  It also helps to split up the race in your head as you're running.  A half marathon is 13.1 miles... that's approximately 2 10ks.  Get through the first 5k, then the next 5k and then you only have a 10k left!  I don't know if that helps... it works for me though.


The tyre is on its own with no wheel or inner tube attached.

Properties of Gases \n\n1.  Indefinite shape -- you can squash an air-filled  balloon to make circus animals\n2.  May expand -- balloons get bigger when temperature gets warmer\n3.  May compress -- can put lots of air into a car tire\n4.  Have low densities -- balloons filled with air will float on water\n5.  Diffuse uniformly -- put a pizza on the front seat of the car and the people in the back seat get hungry pretty quickly -- that pizza vapors travel to fill the car! \n\n11.2  Atmospheric Pressure \n\nEven though we can't see the air around us, we know it's there and those molecules bouncing around exert a force on our bodies.  Fortunately, the force is the same on all sides of us, so it equalizes out and we don't notice that we're pushing against the air as we move our bodies. \n\nWe use a barometer to measure pressure.  We can use lots of different units depending on the system we're using.  Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level is defined as "1 atmosphere of pressure";  we call this by the special name "standard pressure".  The equivalent measures in other  units for standard pressure are given in table 11.1;  when we talk about standard pressure in this course we will use units of atmospheres, mm Hg and torr.  You're probably familiar with the weatherperson talking about pressure in inches of Hg.  If you use 2.54 cm = 1 inch, you can do the conversion from inches of Hg to cm and then on to mm of Hg.  There's no magic here, it's just a metric/English conversion example. \n\nYou may be curious about how a barometer works.  Here's my interpretation.... \n\nLet's start with the diagram on page 295 which is a representation for the workings of a barometer. It helps to talk about how this setup is put together. One would hold the tube "right side up", that is, like a test tube and fill it "to the brim" with mercury. One then inverts the tube in a pool of mercury (taking appropriate safety precautions). Immediately some of the mercury will flow out of the tube. How much flows out depends on how much pressure the atmosphere exerts on the pool of mercury. If the atmospheric pressure is higher, there is more pressure on the pool of mercury and the material in the tube stays at a higher level. If the atmospheric pressure is lower on a given day, more mercury is allowed to flow out of the tube. If the atmospheric pressure increases again, more mercury is pushed pack up into the tube. It is important to recognize that a virtual vacuum (except for a few stray mercury molecules) exists above the liquid in the tube which exerts no pressure (has no influence) on the height of the material in the tube. The only influence on the height of the material, is the air pressure on the puddle of mercury at the bottom.\n\nThe number the weatherperson gives is the height of the column measured in inches or mm (of mercury). We use mercury because it is so dense. If we were to use a water column instead (mercury is 13+ times as dense as water), the column would have to be 13+ times as high.  \n\n  Do example exercise  11.1 and the self test.  You can make up unit factors using any pair of these units to do homework exercises 5 and 7. \n\n11.3  Variables affecting Gas Pressure \n\nThink of gas pressure as the effect of molecules hitting the walls of a container.  When the molecules hit harder, the pressure is increased.  The tire pressure in your car can be affected by 3 things:\n \n  \n\nVariable What we measure Predicted effect on pressure of the gas Why? Also true (follows logically); complete with increase or decrease \nvolume of the container how much air the tire can contain increase volume, decrease pressure more space for the molecules to move around, so don't hit walls of container so hard decrease pressure, (       ) volume \ntemperature of the gas temperature of the air in the tire increase temperature, increase pressure molecules moving faster, so hit


Apparently it started out as a bankruptcy chapter 13 however the final paperwork is a chapter 7. Any difference? on the credit report it states dismissed. What is the difference between discharged and dismissed?

Mr. Leibowitz is certainly the most accurate, although I'm going to have to differ with him on a couple of small points.\n\nI think you've got that dismissal is bad and discharge is good (from the debtor's viewpoint).  From the creditor's viewpoint, dismissal is good, discharge is bad.\n\nThe federal bankruptcy courts have an excellent system known by the acronymn Pacer (Public Access to Court's Electronic Records).  With the debtor's name or social security number, it is a fairly simple process to look up the status of any person's bankruptcy.  Do not rely on any of the credit bureaus for information, they are notoriously inaccurate.  I've included the Pacer website in the sources, however, it is a pay site and you have to sign up for an account.  The service is usually free if you care to visit the local bankruptcy court.\n\nAs for the effect of Chapter 7 versus Chapter 13 on the credit, my experience is that Chapter 7 is far more beneficial on the credit than Chapter 13.  You are completed with the bankruptcy within three and a half months, rather than three to five years.  You can immediately start working on improving your FICO scores and getting your life back with a Chapter 7 and you can't do that with a Chapter 13 where you are tied to the court.\n\nAlso, misinformation abounds about how long items must remain on your credit.  The definitive source is the Fair Credit Reporting Act.  I've included the FTC site with the full transcript of the act, but the applicable term for any bankruptcy is ten years.  The applicable code provision reads as follows:\n\na) Information excluded from consumer reports. Except as authorized under subsection (b) of this section, no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information:\n\n(1) Cases under title 11 [United States Code] or under the Bankruptcy Act that, from the date of entry of the order for relief or the date of adjudication, as the case may be, antedate the report by more than 10 years. \n\nSorry, that is probably way more than you asked for, but the misinformation was mindboggling.

I'd like to get into voice over acting. I live in Brisbane now. I've always been told that I have an excellant voice for it and with my ability to mimic different accents and tones, I'd really like to give it a go, but noone in the industry seems to want to give out their contacts. Please put me out of my misery and give me some idea of whether its feasible or not.

Two things I would do.\nFirstly contact the TV stations in Brisbane, 7, 9 and 10 from memory.\nSecondly, try advertising agencies.\nGood luck.


i have a tiny mole near my nose (left side)\nand i wanna get rid of it.

Yes, but I would suggest that you have it removed by a plastic surgeon or at the very least by a dermatologist. I feel this way because this is your face we are talking about not somewhere that you wouldn't notice. Have you ever thought that if your mole is small that perhaps it's cute on you, I have a friend who has a small one and it wouldn't be the same if she had it removed. Some people consider moles as a sign of beauty. I don't mean the large ones with hair growing out of them. UGH! Best of luck, whatever your decision may be.


If you despise someone so much that you "pray for them", why would you want to spend eternity with them?

It's a way of insulting someone.  Same for when you disagree for them and they say they'll pray for you.  It's a direct insult to you and you should take it as such.  \n\nThey have no proof, but they are willing to worship a god who will condemn you and your family to eternal torture if you are not "born again", yet they claim they don't understand why that is offensive.  \n\nThe answer is that they know exactly what they are doing.  They are insulting you and trying to hide behind the fact that you will "respect their religion" and not hold them accountable for the outrageous and insulting things they say and their evil wishes that they have for your and others like you if you don't bend to their belief system.\n\nMy advice is when someone says they will "pray for you" after a religious argument or discussion, say, "Oh please don't, I don't want God to think we're friends."\n\nI have to respond to the comment that "If you don't like someone, you can still love them."  That is a load of crap.  The reason it's hard to love your neighbor is that you have to like them too.  Christ wasn't passive-agressive, and neither should his followers be.


First, you tell them about the history/principles of Islam; then you give them answers about any misperceptions of Islam that they have (e.g. terrorism; slavery; intolerance of other religions; suicide); third, you give them a comparison between Islam and other religions (e.g. why does it make more sense that God has no son, instead of claiming that God is three in one and one in three - Father, son, holy spirit)...\nBut of course, that person has to be willing to read, listen with open ears and heart. And you have to ask God to guide them, for He is the only one that can, not you: people are only guided if God so wishes. I have written a book, maybe this could help you out.


Pretend you're a terrorist...\n\nWhat would you do after 9/11. How would you top that?

Dig a big hole under the U.S. and watch it fall into the ocean. Problem solved.


I live in Phoenix so I'm not terribly worried but I just want to see if life is going to suck for everyone else.  Thanks!

government, religion, gays, lesbians, minorities...all of which force opinions down our throats and make us look bad for not agreeing with them.  So are we really entitled to our opinion or just the ones that they say we are?

It's just an opinion, not a fact. Fact are indisputable, but opinions are just that. What one person believes. Your own opinion is just as valid as anyone Else's.\nIt may not be mine, or theirs, but it's yours and you are entitled to it.

I'm a lesbian, and I met someone back in February who is bisexual. She told me about 2 diff men she was involved with, but neither of the 2 lived in the same state. One of them, she told me it was nothing physical and the other was married with kids and she hardly ever saw him...Yeah, sounds crazy, I know. Anyway, she and I proceeded and things moved sorta fast, I admit. I allowed myself to develop feelings for her. She and I spent A LOT of time with each other and enjoyed each others company very much. All of a sudden, the married guy came into town and she promised me that we would still c each other. Well, first of all, when he cms, she never knows how long he's staying. With him being here, she has neglected me, but she still tells me she wants to be witht me. She tells me everyday to wait for her, but I'm realizing the whole things isn't fair...I know I need to and I can get over her, but I don't know what to...What would you do???

Okay I am a bisexual male so it may be a little different for me but here is my advice anyways. (Also I have been in a similiar situation and I have a little insight.)\nThe FIRST thing you need to do is decide how important this girl is to you and are you willing to tolerate her going back and forth on you. IF YOU ARE NOT--then take my advice and break all ties with her. It may hurt at first but if you keep dealing with her you are just reopening a wound over and over and it will never heal. Trust me in this...been there and I wish someone would have told me that. Could have saved myself a whole lot of pain and a broken heart if they would have.

or perhaps a society or past civilization?

in ancient Roman society, a woman was legally a child.\n\nif we take a look at older movies (40s,50s,some 60s) it was not unusual for the main character to slap a girl in order to keep her in line (which means it was more or less acceptable back then)\n\nin the original Ring movie (the Japanese version) the main heroine gets slapped by her boyfriend...if that had happened in the U.S. version, audiences would've given the movie a colder reception.\n\noverall, outside of North America, Europe, and Aus/NZ, men are considered to have authority over women

You can sell BB Gun parts on EBay.   Just take the stock or other major part(s) off and sell them seperatly as Parts.  Its best to remove a part or two that allows it to actuall shot and so it looks none funtional.


i know a secret about this place that will make most of you never believe me. this is the main place for satan and his soldiers.  and satan is setting on the water!\nanyone think i am crazy yet?\n\nfor those who don't know about triangle of bermuda look at the map  http://www.4to40.com/images/earth/geography/bermudatriangle/bermuda_triangle.jpg

No, I dont think your crazy. Did you hear on the History Channel the scientist have a theory now, they are saying the gases from the water rises causing vapors to go into the atmosphere causing people who go out there to "hallucinate".This theory still dont explain why there are no bodies when the plane crashes or the boat sinks. One pilot describe daggers hitting the cockpit. Somethings man wasnt meant to explore, see , or bother with.Could it be the devil and its angels?Well, I believe it could be the place devil landed after he was cast out of heaven.


I am debating on moving to another state it get away from a bad relationship, I have a son and his father lives here.(Not the guy I am moving away from).  My sons father sees him every other weekend and holidays.  It would only be about a 4.5hr drive what do you think?

At the end of the day are you thinking about yourself or your kid?  If you are truely thinking about what it best for your son then you will stay in the state.  If you add the long distance for your son to see his father, you will only be causing him more problems.  Plus, moving a state will give you a new start but your problems will still be there.


ive always been a logical person and logically it seems fake, if this jesus is so good why do you go to hell if you dont believe in him. plus all of the hail marys and confessing to fix your sins seems ludicrous

Of course there's nothing wrong with you. Maybe you believe in something else. You don't always go to hell if you don't believe in Jesus. I accepted him into my life last summer and life's been great! Take me advice and I'm sure you'll be happy.


I wasn't a victim but could have been should I have chosen to wire cash.

In the USA - You can try and file a report with the local police, who sometimes have internet fraud investigators, but since you were not a victim they will probably not even want to talk to you.\n\nYou can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding consumer fraud (including internet scams).  You could also file a complaint here: http://www.ic3.gov/\nBut again, they are most interested in victims.  \n\nIf you can find out who any of the victims are, that would be ideal.  No police or federal agency will initiate an investigation without a victim (because you cannot prosecute someone for something like this without a victim).\n\nIf it's international - I have no experience with it and can't give you any kind of answer.  Good luck with this!


Well, I'm in 5th grade and I don't know what to do. Here's more details from before. Someone asked for more details. I really have no boobs whatsoever and I don't think it's nice to say something like that to me because I can't take it. I'm just a dumb blonde and all of the guys like me. At the carnival, he came up and told me right to my face "You have Boobs" and he and his friend Sam went away laughing at me and I feel so sad. It's like being told you're fat. You don't want to hear it but you still have to accept it. Someone answered and told me that he was trying to make me feel good but he wasn't and he was trying to make fun of me and I don't like it when people make fun of me. It annoys me so bad. Please tell me what I can do. Please! Thanks a lot!

that freak has no respect for girls whatsoever..just look around u...u have so many answerers to support u. and he has no one except his nuch of cronies wholl eventually stab his bak. I know u hav to accept it. but u know what? accept it and use all those insuklts and mockery to tuffen up urself. I felt the same way too when people used to hit me and take my money away. i felt like killing myself and them...btu then i realised that they r not worth it.vermin like him r here to be ignored.And u arent sum dumb blond. Any more probs feel free to ask me personally, i am always hereto help people out.Keep ur chin up girl  ^_^


It was playing on the speakers at the convenience store I stop at before work to pick up booze and smokes. Hey, work's tough. Anyway, now it's stuck in my head like some CIA-implanted microchip. You remember: "You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em...."  I was thinking he's got some money left from when he was rich, ya think?

I guess you got to know when to fold them. Put some TOOL on if you like metal that will get that cowboy song out of your head good luck!!

I need to know how to transfer a document from Adobe reader to Word so I can add stuff to the document.

I think your best bet would be to just copy and paste.  You might lose your formatting, but if you don't mind rearranging some stuff, that'll work.  On the second toolbar from the top, there is a button that says "Select Text."  Click that, and the little hand goes away, and you now can select the text you want.  After you've picked what you need, click copy, and then paste it into Word.  Hope that's what you needed!

Good morning to all, I have an internet cafe business, i operated this business for almost 3 years now, on my first year, the busniss flow was good, unlike today where there are now many competence. Many are opening now, what will i do to compete with my other business competencies? I still love my cafe business, and i ask advises what should i do to have those customers back? \n\nThank you so much. I have 17 computers, some are for gamings and for chatting with cams. And we owned this building, i dont rent. I know that is one advantage compared to other establishments. My place is a commercial site and how i wonder why i lost over 60 percent of my customers now. Maybe the customers love newer cafes? what did i do wrong? please helpme

maganda ba ung interior design ng cafe mo? dapat updated ka din sa mga games at computers. dapat maganda din performance ng mga pcs mo. ikaw ba nagbabantay ng shop mo? kung hindi baka nananakawan ka n ng tauhan mo. magandang software para sa  cafe ung "internet caffe" ng antamedia. mahal ng lang. pero hindi naman uso ung orig, diba? ayun sa software na un lahat makekwenta mo mula expenses, inventory, stocks, time usage ng customer, ung tauhan na nagbantay, kung magkano ung kinita nyo nung sya ung nagbantay atbp.\n\ntama din si quiet. \nmamigay ka din ng flyers baka hindi lang nila alam na may shop pa dun. ayusin mo ung shop mo para makatrak ka ng tao. hindi ung barabara lang. kasi pansin ko ganun lahat ng shop dito. \nsabi mo rin nung una kumita ka dapat ginamit mo na rin un pang ayos ng shop.\nun lang\nla na maisip

my friend keeps hanging out with my ex-boyfriend who had abused and raped me. she was even there once when he hit me, and she thinks the only reason i'm asking her to stay away is because i'm jealous. i'm actually really worried and i don't know what to do to make her stop seeing him...\nand he even tried to take advantage of her and used violence against her once. what is her problem and how can i get her to stay away from him?

You have already tried to warn her and she won't listen - sadly, she is going to have to learn on her own.  There really isn't anything you can do except perhaps warn her parents about this man's behaviour towards you.  However, once you warn her parents, she is going to be extremely angry with you and she will not want to talk to you - but if you truly want to help her, then you should tell her parents, and let them handle it, and hope for the best - hope that in time, she will understand that you were not jealous, you were simply trying to be a good friend to her.\nIf she does not realize that you were trying to be a good friend, then maybe she is not worth hanging around in the first place.\n\nGood Luck!


I just don't understand how a spirit could talk through a piece of cardboard.  I have had my own experience with this thing. And I will tell you it sure scared me into not wanting to touch it again.  How bout you....tell me your experience.

We are all made up off energy. Some spirits are stronger than others. Usually the spirits that have been passed for longer are stronger than the new ones. It also depnds on the spiritual energy off the people using the board some are more open than others. I hope this helps xx

I'm very sorry to hear of this struggle you are going through. You are not the first to go through this, and are probably not alone either.\n\nWhen I go through tough times, I try one or both of two coping mechanisms that I have picked up in life:\n\n(1) Indulge yourself in something you enjoy doing (swimming, reading, running/jogging, surfing the web, watching porn, etc);\n\n(2) Talk about it with a good listener.\n\nBe well.


I had a tooth pulled out because they said that the tooth wasn't savable. I wanted to get some opinions and/or some pros & cons to getting a bridge vs an implant. Which one would be the least expensive or more reliable?\n\nWhat do you think would be the best way?

Implants are the new thing in Dentistry. They are coming along  very well and have a high rate of success. Before you can do an implant your dentist or oral surgeon will need to make sure you have enough bone to hold a good, stable implant.\nA bridge is also a good option. They've been around for years. Some last a long time, Some don't. For the most part they are reliable and stable. A little harder to clean around, but its managable.\nCost wise- a bridge is less expensive. \nAlso a thing to consider, an Implant is a much longer process than a bridge. You have to allow healing time after they've places the implant to make sure it will settle in & work well. \nI hope I've helped some:)


I just started taking celexa 5 days ago and i'm starting to notice improvement. I take it in the morning but by the next morning i am starting to feel anxious. Is this normal and will it last?

It is going to take several weeks for you to feel the full benefits of celexa.The medication has to build up in the bloodstream.Continue taking.Don't miss a dose.Don't stop it suddenly and I promise you will feel better.

What happens when we die- do we go into a slumber until the day of judgement or do we go straight to heaven or hell? If you have an answer, can you state where you got your sources?

Okay this all depends on what you believe. Since I have never been dead I can't give you a play-by-play of exactly what happens, but here is what I have always been taught( by the way I am a christian). I have been taught that you are immediately in front of Jesus for judgement the second you die.If you are saved then you will go to heaven from there, if not you will go to hell. Other people may believe different things.

I have always wanted to be a doctor. And in a year I'm going to college. But I don't know if I have what it takes. I'm smart in a different way...\nI go to the best high school of my city, but my grades aren't perfect...I'm terrible at math, and at the other subjects I'm just fine. I barely study for the tests, and I still get good grades...that should be good right? \nI've always wanted to be a doctor, but maybe I should study something else. \nI would like to know what skills are necessary.\nWhat do you think?

If you've always wanted to be a doctor and you still want to be a doctor, then you should definitely pursue it.  You only need to take one year of college math as a prerequisite to medical school and you can get a tutor for that class if you're really bad at it. You can major in whatever you want and just take the required courses to get into med school: 1 year physics, 1 year chemistry, 1 year organic, 1 year biology, 1 year math, 1 year english (1 semester biochem and 1 semester genetics required by about 9 med schools).  You'll need to make sure your grades are high and your MCAT score is above average as well as staying active in other activities and being well-rounded. If it's always been your dream, then you should do it.  You are lucky that you know what you want to do.  Some people don't figure it out until they're 40 years old and then they feel it's too late to pursue their dreams.  You are young and know what you want.  Take advantage of this!

I'm a 30 year old female who does about 20 minutes of core training with weights a week and rebounding for at least 5 minutes a day. I've been doing this since January and have only lost 10 pounds. I have 5 more pounds to lose before my ideal weight. What else can I do to speed this along. I eat somewhat healthy but I'm sure I could always do better. Thanks!

Since you are doing core training, I assume you need it stronger so you can do a standard free weight program. Until you have it built up just use machines, that is better then nothing. Then you can switch when your core is good. Do some cardio on the other days until your heart and lungs are in good shape. Then you will be able to do high intensity interval training. Exercise every day if you can. 2.5 to 3 hours of weights over 3 days is good. Then do 15 to 20 minutes a day 3 times of intervals and 1 20 minute session of regular cardio. Over a couple years I have cut more then 80 pounds of fat. Put on 70+ pounds of lean mass too. I know some of it is bone density, but it is mostly muscle. I think 4 hours a week should do it.


The resulting shape would be comprised of a total of 4 sides (including the base), and all 4 sides are triangular.  Think of it as a 3-sided pyramid.

square pyramid...if square as base\n\ntriangular pyramid...if triangle as base\n\nBasically just look at the base...and add pyramid to it.\n\nEx. 5 sided regular polygon base...pentagonal pyramid.\n\nIf it isn't a regular polygon...look it up...or just leave it as pyramid I guess. LOL!\n\nTetrahedron...sound molecular...like the shape of methane molecule. I'm thinkin' this is geometry...so stick with the simplistic "pyramid".\n\nOH...BTW...if it only has one base...and is composed of multiple triangular sides...then it's a pyramid. If it has 2 bases...and any other figure for it's sides...then it's a prism.

how long will my ingrown hair last? (its been there for a week and halfish)\nwill neosporin cure it? or sumthing else?

An ingrown hair can be very painful and unfortunately long lasting. Heat is actually your best bet. Soak the area in warm water with Epsom salt. If it is in a place that you can't soak try getting a wash cloth wet with warm water ( as warm as you can stand it)not too hot and pour Epsom salt on it then place on area. Do this several times a day. This will bring it to a head. Once it is at that point it will most likely erupt while you go about your day and you will feel much better.   You can also place a heating pad on the area over night. Do not do this if you are diabetic.  If you see a red line running from the site or the site has what appears to be a red target looking appearance you should see the doctor. This may indicate cellulitis which is an inflammation/infection of the cells.  As always contact your DR with any questions.


I`m planning on moving to North Carolina,is there much going on for acoustic folk rock musicians as far as places to play ?I write my own stuff and play covers of stuff like Beatles,Neil Young,Strawbs,Cat Stevens,James Taylor ,Eagles etc.

YOU HAVE CONTROLL OF THE PRESIDENCY AND THE SENATE... IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT DEMOCRATS DID IN THE PAST...

The Republicans have had more than enough time to change anything they want to, and if they haven't, IT'S BECASUE THEY LIKE IT THAT WAY!\nIf you have the opportunity to do something and you don't, then you're part of the problem.

It's funny isn't it? They still talk about Clinton 6 years later, and he has been living that beautiful life. Anything that Bush screws up on, which is every week now, somehow President Clinton must have done it. Total ignorance! If they can't pick it off on Clinton then Abraham Lincoln did it. Bush and his followers are criminals to the U.S.. Vote them out!


From 1st to 12th grade, at the beginning of every school year, I had to spend a few months fearing and struggling to adjust to the new school year, new classes, homework, studies, and tests. I was afraid of having too much work and getting bad grades. I really wish I can drop out of school, but didn't because I was afraid of what my parents would say. I always felt that my friends and classmates were smarter than me. At weekends, I was so happy. By Sunday night, I feared of going to school and having too much work during the weekends. At home I never want to talk about school. I would not talk to that family member or relative too much from then on that talks to me about schoolwork.\nDuring summer, I wish the schoolyear would start. When it starts, I would think "Why did I want it to start?"\nWhen I got to college, I didn't have that problem anymore. What was wrong with me?

Know what helped me with that? Getting my books and folders together a week before class, and being ready then. I found I was feeling apprehensive *then*, and by the time class began, I had moved past that and was ready to study. Also, I would get up in time for my, say, 8 a.m. classes a week ahead of time. I built up the routine, and as I said, got all the anxiety out ahead of time.


I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but I don't believe I want to have lots of US cash saved up. One morning I think I might wake up and it will be a good as toilet paper. Does anyone else have any ideas on this?

The US dollar is backed by the US Government, (not great but it works). The US government, thankfully, is back by its taxing power over the American people (which is VERY good). I don't think you'll have much to worry about. But I won't keep cash laying around not collect interest or working for you. Inflation is what will really eat away your money.


one or two of those things provided are igneous rocks.

Porphyry & Basalt are both igneous.\n\nPorphyry is an intrusive igneous rock w/ different crystal sizes.\n\nPorphrytic is a texture term that is often used to describe certain types of igneous rocks having two distinct crystal sizes. The large crystals inside the rock are called phenocrysts. Porphyrtic granite is an example. I tell students that it reminds me of a chocolate chip cookie w/ the large crystals representing the chocolate chips. That usually helps them to get it.\n\nBasalt is an extrusive igneous rock composed mainly of darker minerals such as magnesium.\n\nLimestone is a sedimentary rock as is shale.


I figure Allen Iverson and Danny Fortson would top out my list.

My teacher said that to my whole classroom! if we dont turn them in we will have to miss out on Recess and P.E. I'm tearing into shreads! I think I might be getting depressed again!!! and also its very embarassing to see the kids look at me and I'm still in the classroom not having P.E.

tell her you lost it, and you're really really really sorry and you've looked everywhere and you really can't find it (a few tears at this point help).  it always worked for me!


HE DOESNT STUDY AT  VIIRGINIA WHEN I WANT TO SEND MY SON , HOW COULD I  persuade　him?

Um. \nThis sounds like a very, very important question.\nA question that you'd very much like other people to help you out with.\nA question that you'd like deep, thoughtful answers to.\n\nSo what the heck is the question?????


this is for a class project...and we need lots of information because we are designing a newspaper article

LSD(Lysergic Acid Diethylamide) is a hallucinogenic chemical discovered accidentaly by a doctor (I think it was Hoffer, but could be wrong) in 1947. It tricks the brain into seeing and hearing things that aren't there, and trips can be very realistic. A trip can last from between 8 to 12 hours, which is might seem a long time, but for the person using the LSD it passes even more slowly. Your mood can regulate a trip- if the user has any problems in their life this can be magnified when tripping to produce a nightmarish experience- however at least when you have a nightmare and it gets really hairy you wake up- with LSD (also known as Acid) you have to ride out the 12 hours, so this is one reason why it can be so devastating on someone's mental health. There is also the possibilty of flashbacks - revisiting the trip- for up to at least 7 years following use- these can come on very unexpectedly and have similarly scary consequences. One individual, having not taken any for 3 years, was in working in an old peoples home when there was a fire drill. He then suffered a flashback, thought he saw flames and broke both his legs jumping from the top floor- this is a documented fact.\nLSD really come to prominence in the 1960's with Ken Kesey and his Electric Kool Aid Experiment and the likes of Dr Timothy Leary who coined the phrase "Tune in, turn on, drop out". \nMore and more mental health issues are being associated with LSD- it is probably responsible for more people ending up in assylums than any other drug.


My husband always gets mad at me because when we go into grocery stores I need to go poo...I think it has to do with the temperature in the store..I get chills from the air conditioning. Or am I looking at all the food and psychologically trying to make more room for what I am buying there? Does anyone have any scientific reason why I feel the urge to take a dump?\nPlease do not compare this to my last question...they are not related. I always have TP when pooing.

It is partially psychological and partially physical. When you enter the grocery store you instantly have food on the mind. That triggers your intestines to get ready for food because as far as it knows.. you are about to eat. When your intestines get activated, they kind of contract in a wave starting near the stomach and going all the way to your rectum (peristalsis). This wave of contraction gives you the sensation of having to go to the bathroom. It affects different people to varying degrees and with different stimuli.


i've heard you can wake up in your dreams, and know you are dreaming, and explore your mind to the fullest, i'd like to experience this.

Step one: Remember your dreams (after they happen).  This is knowing your dreams after they happen.  Keep a notepad and write down what you remember as soon as you wake up.\n\nStep two: Recognize when you are dreaming while you are dreaming.  This is lots easier if you have recorded previous dreams.  Learn a "key" like looking for a light switch.\n\nStep three: When you know you are dreaming, do not continue to "observe."  Take control.  Choose to do something and then do it.  Start with something small like "turning on the light switch."\n\nStep four: This is the area of lucid dreaming.  Allowing your conscious mind to control your dream.  Experiment.  Try to fly or do something that normally cannot be done in your waking state.\n\nStep five: After experimenting, learn to do nothing.  Once more become an observer.  Pay attention to what is happening.  Remember all details.\n\nThe biggest problem with lucid dreaming is often people get so hung on the experience that they then "forget" their dreams again.  They wake in their dreams, do all kinds of stuff and then promptly forget before then re-enter the waking state.


What do you do when you fail something you really wanted for yourself?  What if there is no Plan B?  Where do you go from here?

take a breath and create a Plan B. This happened the day before my WEDDING!!!! My outdoor wedding was forecast to rain, and I mean dump rain, all day long. There was no Plan B. So I got all the people I could find eager to help me for the wedding, and we came up with 2 additional places to have the wedding at! \n\nAnother example is I was supposed to go to my employer sponsered school that wouldve givin me a license and a raise. It was a dream. For some reason, another person was chosen over me, despite my qualifications, and I was seriously bummed. A whole year of planning down the drain. That very same day, someone called and said I won a contract to open my own store. It was meant to be. I had applied for this contract the same day my boss was supposed to be signing me up for the school.\n\nSo, be quiet, and think alone. Then if you are not successful, ask certain friends and family to help you brainstorm. Just relax and let fate take its course. Sometimes Plan B is what was meant to be in the first place, and it will feel right.

I eventually want to work for NASA, if not possible I just want to know as much information about Astronomy, and if astronomy doesn't workout, can anyone give me info on an Astronaut career? Thanks so much.

When I lived in Dallas I had a friend who transferred to UT-Austin. She eventually studied astronomy. I don't know where you live, but the quickest way would be to check your local university. A carrier in physics or engineering would be your best choice. Keep in mind that, in if you want to be part of the astronaut corp, you may need to have at least a Masters degree, if not a PhD.\nGood Luck


That,s because I am really shy so I can not make any speech.

Well my friend, looks like you and I are on the same boat. Haha...we're screwed. But really though....I think if you just keep up a long term friendship eventually something will happen.


You may have some similar questions from me such as:\nDo ugly people often look in the mirror or have lots of pictures of themselves?

Several folks have said to boycott Mobile and Exxon, okay, so how do you find out who they supply?

From basic economics, a price ceiling would just cause massive shortages and gas lines just as you saw in the 1970s.  It's trading one problem for another problem.  Whether this is desirable is debatable.  There are price ceilings for various things out there, such as rent.  There's some info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_ceiling\n\nYour other solution about boycotting just one company is just another urban legend floating around.\n\nBoycotting Exxon isn't going to work to bring down prices.  If everyone stopped buying from Exxon and used the other providers, then the other providers would run out of gas pretty quickly due to supply and demand chain effects.  What would happen is that they would buy their gas from Exxon and overall all prices would go up, not down.\n\nFull mythbuster at Snopes.\n\nhttp://www.snopes.com/politics/gasoline/gasout.asp\n\nTo lower gas prices, you have to lower demand, which includes things like carpooling, public transportation, alternative sources of energy, and better milage vehicles.


Do you think it will cause a major change in the church's view on Judas,, or like so many other artifacts discovered, be described as heresay by the catholic church,,  which I believe is the most powerful and evil corporation on the planet ?  And yes I am catholic.

My research says it will be returned to the Egyptian authority after it is preserved. It was taken illegally from Egypt, kept in a shoe box and sold to the highest bidder.So legally it still belongs to them.\n Whether it impacts our faith is up to us. whether it affects the Catholic church? Who can say? I believe we have a voice to "Cry in the wilderness" about the way the Catholic church keeps alot of the ancient writings hidden from public knowledge. Maybe if we "Cry" loud and long enough the overwhelming volume will open the dusty vaults and let the light of knowing the truth in. Seek and you will find, much of todays Christian belief is questionable. How much is defined by what the Big Bad Catholic church has hidden from us we can only guess. Jesus axtolls us to 'Heed not that we be deceived.'It scares me to no end how we have already been so deceived


Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, Oxford - they are dreams for students like me. Which ones are better, friendlier, fun? And which ones offer special scholarships for low-income families?

Each of the top universities has their own personality.  You need to visit each one and spend some time there to see the differences.  Some are in great cities (Harvard and MIT, for example), others are not.\n\nCollege is what you make it.  You can get the equivalent of an Ivy League education at a state school if you so choose.  In many cases, it is the networks that you form at college that help support you throughout your life.\n\nAll colleges have programs to help low-income families.  Many of the top schools will pay all of your educational costs if you can meet their admissions criteria.


ok, so jesus just rolled out of bed, and boy does he feel awful. that huge party we had last night almost finished his divine @ss. god is still pissed, even though most of the mess has been cleaned up. i think jesus is gonna get a stern lecture when he sobers up a bit more. anyway, buddha went home with not one, but TWO hot chicks last night. talk about excess!! when i asked him "well, what about moderation?" he just smiled and said "what about it?" and took off with his skanks. mohomed went home all angry about the blackeye jesus gave him, but he called this morning and said "it's ok, me and jesus are still boys.." then he muttered something about a j-something, i don't know, maybe he sneezed. so basically, everything turned out ok. jesus is in the shower right now washing the unholy filth off himself. he's got a splitting headache. i asked god if he could take care of that for him, and he said that he could, but he won't. jesus needs to learn a lesson. you guys got any hangover tips?

Yeah, he should get buddah, mohammod and the whole gang around for a lunch time BBQ with lots of greasy food and more booze, and if there is still enough schekels left hire a couple of hookers from the west bank and party like tomorrows the end of the world.


I've ths idea of using my webcam as a security camera which will record the videos in the hard disk while I'm not at home. To do so, I need a video recorder software which'll take the video feed input frm the webcam and save it into the hard disk. Am I right?\nIf I'm thn which software can I use?\nIf I'm not thn how to do it?\n...I'm sure it's possible but don't exactly knw how.

I have a creative webcam, and it came with software that turns your pc into a security system with a program that came with the camera called Webcam Monitor.  In this program you can set up your camera to start recording a clip when it detects motion, and then it will send an e-mail to a specified e-mail address.  I wasn't able to set it up correctly though and I don't know what I was doing wrong.
