again, a false assumption, I am not defending myself, I dont care if you think i am gay for defending gays rights. it is the narrow mindedness of the christians for whom it is beyond their comprehension that a straight person would defend homo-rights. What is wrong with you people? oh well.

Christians denounce homosexuality because the Old Testament says that sodomy is a sin. Of course, it says a lot of other things are sins, too, and Christians don't go around denouncing all the people who engage in those sins, so it makes one wonder. I'm pretty sure most people tell lies now and then, but Christians don't go around talking about all the evil liars and telling liars that they will burn in Hell the way they tell homosexuals they'll burn in Hell. Maybe that's because even they tell lies, so they understand how someone might occasionally commit that sin and still be a good Christian. If that's the case, it means they're hypocrites, though.\n\nI think one of the reasons they rationalize their criticism of homosexuality is that homosexuality is a "sin" that lasts a lifetime. Once someone "decides" to live a homosexual lifestyle, he is basically agreeing to commit the "sin" of sodomy for the rest of his life (well, males are, anyway). Many Christians perceive this to be worse than a "one time" sin such as stealing some money from someone but feeling guilty about it and repenting afterwards. And then when homosexuals also talk about their sexuality openly, it's as if they're bragging about their sin, or at least that's how it appears to many Christians.\n\nHowever, what Christians don't think about is that almost all people engage in some kind of "ongoing" sin, like lying on a regular basis, and yet they forgive these people, realizing it's God's place to judge, not theirs. For example, the Old Testament also denounces a child who talks back to a parent with the same fire and brimstone language that it denounces sodomy. And yet you don't see Christians denouncing children as "sinners." A child might be chastized for talking back to a parent on a particular occasion, but you hardly ever hear any Christian with any sense of perspective whatsoever telling the child he's "going to burn in eternal Hell for his sinful ways" just because he occasionally sasses his Mom.\n\nA better example is divorce and remarriage. While sodomy is condemned in the the Old Testament (Leviticus especially), it is not condemned in the New Testament. Jesus doesn't say a word about it. And yet divorce and remarriage are clearly condemned in both the Old and New Testament. Jesus himself says that marriage is sanctified by God and that no one should break a marriage apart. And yet most of the Christians who regularly condemn homosexuality and turn their noses up at gays wouldn't dream of telling people who have divorced and remarried that they're going to burn in eternal Hell because of it. I can see no reason for this except pure hypocrisy. They themselves, being straight, would never commit sodomy (or at least not with someone of the same sex) and think it's disgusting, so it's easy to condemn those who do. But since they themselves may get divorced and have friends who may be or will someday be divorce, they understand the problems that can lead to divorce and sympathize with those who would suffer if they remained married, even though divorce is a sin. Likewise, they see it as simply "human nature" when divorce peole find love and marry again. Why can't they sympathize with homosexuals who would suffer if they never acted on feelings of love and remained alone, or worse, in a forced and fake marriage? Because they themselves have never felt that kind of love, so they don't get it.\n\nDo I understand their reasons for disliking homosexuality? Yes. (Although I personally disagree.) Do I think it's their place to denounce homosexuals? Absolutely not. Even the Bible says "judge not  lest ye be judged." I think it's pure hypocrisy. And if a few more of them were shown how their attitudes towards homosexuality and divorce reveal the underlying hypocrisy, maybe a few of


Do you agree or diagree with the following statement? Use specific reasons to support your answer.

Yes this is true. We could have billions of money and still want more. People always want, want, want . They never think of the third world and be grateful for what you have even if it mightn't be alot compared to what others have


I'm looking for good study guides/outlines...or study methods =]\n\nthanks!

I know a lot of people like to use flash cards to help them study. Put a term or person on one side and then all the info you need to know on the other. If you're a good note taker then simply reviewing your notes should be enough. Were there any chapters assigned from the book? If there were and you haven't read them then that's something you should really consider doing. Also, simply talking to your teacher can help. You can make sure you're studying all of the right things.


Fiberglass or fibreglass is material made from extremely fine fibers of glass. It is used as a reinforcing agent for many plastic products; the resulting composite material, properly known as glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) or glass-fiber reinforced epoxy (GRE), is called "fiberglass" in popular usage.\n\nGlass fiber is formed when thin strands of silica-based or other formulation glass is extruded into many fibers with small diameters suitable for textile processing. Glass is unlike other polymers in that, even as a fiber, it has little crystalline structure (see amorphous solid). The properties of the structure of glass in its softened stage are very much like its properties when spun into fiber. One definition of glass is "an inorganic substance in a condition which is continuous with, and analogous to the liquid state of that substance, but which, as a result of a reversible change in viscosity during cooling, has attained so high a degree of viscosity as to be for all practical purposes rigid."

Last world cup they did make me proud. Almost beat Germany! I was happy about their performance... I was wondering if anyone has been keeping up with the American Selection to know if the team is going to be good this time around in Germany?

I think they are going to be one of the more interesting teams to see this year. I am very interested to see them play as a whole come the end of next month when they are doing their "final tune-up matches". I mean, no one has seen our whole "A" team together in ages, so who knows what we can do. Personally, I think we will be in decent shape to fight for a chance to get out of the first round if we have all of our midfielders in health. *crosses fingers for Reyna and O'Brien to stay in shape* I think this year the US will have make you once again proud of them!^^


They say that these kinds of relationships are the new thing.  People are getting married with others they met through online forums/dating services.  So I ask, what is with the sudden rise of internet dating?

I have been with someone I met online for 4 years now. We didn't meet on a Personals site we met on Napster we just happened to like the same music. Meeting someone online I think is easier bc you get to know the person first before you see them. So you get an impression of their personality before you see what they look like. Like they say first impressions are what matter most.


Yes Ive researched, its normal to get gray pubic hairs even though none on your head. but still no one has answered how the hell do you colour them?  Not like going to the hairdresser is it.

Yes, there are special dyes for the private region.  I think walgrenes sells them if not, adult shops do.

Everything ended up being the same way it was before, except that I felt worse because I was much more physically invested in the situation.  We only hooked up once and he was pretty good, but considering how out of control I was with my emotions, I decided not to go there again. He was supposed to call me on Saturday night and didn't and then dinner plans went awry for Sunday.  I finally got in touch with him tonight and explained that I was in way over my head, I wanted a serious commitment and NOT what we were heading into and I explained why I knew he would never be able to give me the serious commitment I felt I needed right now.  His only responses were "yep" and "o.k." and when I told him we shouldn't continue speaking to each other, he was still "o.k." and "yep" with that too.  I feel so relieved, I'm not out in limbo anymore and I feel back in control of my emotions again!!  I feel his answers proved that he didn't care anything about me being a part of his life..am I wrong?

sounds like the first logical thing you've done so far. good job, it will be hard, but just keep thinking about his responses when you want to call him


About eight hours if I'm short on time.  Four hours if I've already been thinking about what I'm going to say.  I like to give myself at least three days to a week to write any paper.  It's best if you can work on it, let it set for a while, and then come back to it.  If it's due tomorrow, the best thing to do is work on it all night.  Coffee does wonders.  If you get restless, go outside and take a five min run, come back and keep her diggin!  Good luck!  I'm cramming for exams right now, so if you're writing under pressure right now, I know how you feel!  Hang in there!

i get so angry so easily that my relationships get damaged...what should i do to "mitigate" my anger??

Well, it's up to you to find out the source of your anger. After you've done that, you should come up with a plan for how to handle the situation that provokes your anger -- like walk away, or think of squirrels like the one in my profile picture. It's really hard to remember this plan when the situation arises, but you have to beat it in there somehow.\n\nPerhaps the source of your anger isn't an event, but just an accumulation of events. If that's the case, take a vacation somewhere. Take some time off alone to relax -- isolate yourself from the things that anger you. Take up a hobby that'll allow you to vent your anger/frustrations. I actually highly recommend you weight-train or take up martial arts/boxing -- it does wonders for us guys, trust me.\n\nAnd lastly, LIGHTEN UP. LET THINGS GO. TURN EVERY BAD SITUATION INTO A COMICAL ONE. Not everything is perfect or goes as planned, so sometimes you just gotta sit and enjoy the ride.

I never give money to people who call me...but I get a little scared when turning down the police....like they put me on a list or something

Please, Please, Please don't be concerned with that thought. First and foremost the POLICE are not the ones who call you. Police Departments contract with a solicitor who has nothing but civilians who man the phones. These solicitor are the ones calling you and they DO NOT turn in any list of anyone who donates or refuses to donate. There are plenty of people who do donate so when people refuse to donate it isn't that big of a deal. The person calling you IS NOT a police officer and if he/she identifies themselves as a cop you should verify what department he/she is with and get this persons name, then hang up. Go to Police Department and talk with one of the ranking officers. You can then verify if you did get a call from this officer. Believe me they would appreciate hearing from the public on matters/issues such as this.


Tell us how much you lost and how long ago you lost it.  Also, how did you keep it off and keep yourself motivated?

I weighed 14 stone (140lbs) for ages about 5 years.\nI stopped eating so much, these are the rules I followed, I did it all on my own, once I could see thw weight coming off it was easy to stay motivated you just have to want it hard enough.\n\nDon't have fattening food in the house\nPut a "fat" photo of you on the fridge\n\nEat breakfast, cereal and one slice of toast\n\nPiece of fruit for midmorning\n\nSalad for lunch as you can eat lots of salad without it mattering too much\n\nDinner - still try to eat healthily but make sure you eat a decent amount - theres a long time to go till breakfast\n\nEvening - if you want 2 or 3 biscuits, crackers or bit of fruit.\n\nTry to drink 8 glasses of water a day if you don't like water try cordial. This is not only good for your body it helps you to feel full as well.\n\nVary your meals as much as you can, most diets don't work cos the diet gets boring\n\nPut aside the money you would have spent on fatty food and use it to treat yourself as a reward.\n\nExercise helps a lot I find it soooo boring but a good one is walking everywhere, a walk round the block in the evening, taking the stairs not the elevator, walking to the shop not taking the car etc\n\nSwimming is a good exercise you can do on your own, and the pools are open from early till late so you're bound to find a time that suits

i need some info on vampires and i was hoping if could get some answers from REAL vampires, which i know don't get on the computer that much but it would be helpful if i could get some answers from you too. So tell me everything you know about vampires. it's something I've been working on for quite some time now.

Vampires are mythical or folkloric creatures, typically held to be the re-animated corpses of human beings and said to subsist on human and/or animal blood (hematophagy), often having unnatural powers, heightened bodily functions, and/or the ability to physically transform. Some cultures have myths of non-human vampires, such as demons or animals like bats, dogs, and spiders. Vampires are often described as having a variety of additional powers and character traits, extremely variable in different traditions, and are a frequent subject of folklore, cinema, and contemporary fiction.\n\nVampirism is the practice of drinking blood from a person/animal. Vampires are said to mainly bite the victim's neck, extracting the blood from the carotid artery. In folklore and popular culture, the term generally refers to a belief that one can gain supernatural powers by drinking human blood. The historical practice of vampirism can generally be considered a more specific and less commonly occurring form of cannibalism. The consumption of another's blood (and/or flesh) has been used as a tactic of psychological warfare intended to terrorize the enemy, and it can be used to reflect various spiritual beliefs.\n\nIn zoology and botany, the term vampirism is used to refer to leeches, mosquitos, mistletoe, vampire bats, and other organisms that prey upon the bodily fluids of other creatures. This term also applies to mythic animals of the same nature, including the chupacabra.

Paleobiologists estimate that, based upon fossil remains, an adult sauropod (a strict vegetarian) consumed about 2 tons of plants per day. That's about 1,500,000 kilocalories of food energy. If such a sauropod were killed and consumed by a family of carnivorous Tyrannosaus rex, approximately how much of the original food energy (1,500,000 kcal) from the plants consumed in a day by a sauropod is retained (utilized) within the bodies of the T. rex family?\n\na) 1500 calories\nb) 15,000 kilocalories\nc) 150,000 kilocalories\nd) 1,500,000 kilocalories\ne) 15 million kilocalories\n\nPlease site your reasoning behind your answer. Thank you.

c) 150,000 kcals\nEcologists predict that as energy passes down the food chain, only 10% of the energy is passed on from each tropic level.  The plants consumed by the sauropod only assimilated 10% of the suns energy. The rest of the energy is lost as respiration.


It seems that mixed people (Afrian-American/Black and Caucasian/White) are always labeled either Black or Mixed and are grouped together with the Black community.  They are in the middle of both groups but seem to be labeled with only one.  (I know this doesnt apply for every circumstance, Im talking about in general)\n\nI would apprieciate any comments.

It's because of racism.  White Americans used to think that if you had any "colored" blood then you were contaminated and impure.  They had terms like octoroon, which meant that you had one-eighth part "colored" blood.  That means that one of your great-grandparents were "colored" so you were "colored".  It would effect your legal rights, so if you were "colored" then you had to ride on different train cars, and all that other horrible stuff.  Sadly a lot of people still discriminate based on the color of our skin.

That's so no one can figure out who they are really talking about.  But, it gets kind of confusing when they say things like:  "We always spit in the Canadians food at the restaurant, because we know they'll never leave a tip".  Do you think they are talking about REAL Canadians here, or someone else???

I am sure they are making racial comments. To be honest, they are that way they are because they never put them self in the other person’s shoe. Can you think of one thing a black race in this country did to you that make you say it was not worth getting their 400 years off free labor. Have you ever heard the saying "don't judge a man till you walk a mile in his shoe." Most blacks do not tip good because they do not have that much to spare. \n\nIf it makes you feel better, I am as black as it gets, and I usually tip between 30-40%; because I once worked as a waiter to put myself through school. \n\nIn now days am seeing more and more blacks in the professional work places and universities. That means there is a higher level of hope in the future; they will be able to tip well.


You have 17 donkeys, one person wants a half of them an other wants one ninth and an other needs a third.\n  They add one donkey and the half is 9 the third is 6 and a ninth is 2 but you have one left over and they take it.\n   There they have done it how does it work?

because: 9 + 6 + 2 = 17. And the number of donkeys that they want to divide is 17, the additional donkey is added only so that they don't take half a donkey and in the end it'll be left out.

I really like this girl but she treats me like dirt but she seems to like my friends more than me. She's smart and she is nice to most people and she is about a 8 on a scale of 1-10. she has no clue that I like her . I can't take the direct approach because if i get shot down my rep goes down the drain. and my best friend likes and can get her sister at any time. So #1 please give me advice on how to get her to like me. #2 is it cool to date her if my best friend starts to date her sister? this is a 8th grade problem

Firstly, if you like her and she treats you like dirt, she's not worth your time. you deserve better. Secondly, it's perfectly fine to date her if your best mate is dating her sister. But the thing is, she doesn't deserve you. So there.


beating chest, stomping feet, leaf in mouth, gorilla comunication with each other

Yeah I need some help. I have been improving steadily by 2 seconds each race but is there more I should be doing? I have a great base built up from cross country but could you help me with some speed work?

strategy, its important be to know that it is not a good idea to run flat out on the 800. Its also not the best idea be in first place becuase it is easier for someone to accerlate pass you later. Nor is being in last place since you will have to play a lot of catch-up. A good place would be second or third and it is also a good idea to be trailing the leader leaving you to decide when to speed up past him. Also it depends on what type of 800 runner you are, there are the sprinter 800 and the more distant 800. If you are better at sprints what tends to happen is the first lap is more slower and no one would want to take the lead and everyone is bunched up and then on the second lap everyone goes all out. The more distance 800 would be a quick pace on the first lap and on the second lap, the person who slows down the least would dominate. What i do is that i pace the first lap and then begin to speed up at the 300 on the second lap and speed up a bit more every 50m. and also to run the turn hard when you get to the 200. By the 100 you should be at near sprint and at the 50 you should be sprinting full out. If you are more of the endurance runner and you know the opponents are more sprinters, it might work to go out ahead in front a quite a fast pace and then a bit faster on second, if your a sprinter, it might work to go at a slow pace on the first lap and then all out on the second lap. A good idea is to work on your sprinting a bit and your anaerobic strength so you will have a good final kick at the last 150 or 100 and pass people who cant hold it down as good as you


im already working out and eating healthy but i dont want to gain fat but muscle which is hard since im female. any suggestions

You definately want to up your caloric intake, which it seems you are doing. Make sure you are eating more lean protein and vegetables. Keep bread and other carbs to a minumum, but you *do* need to eat them. To bulk up quick, you can try lifting heavier weighs for fewer repetitions. This doesn't burn off the fat over the muscle though. You could end up with big old muscles with a layer of fat over them. To avoid this, lifting a lighter weight (say 5 or so pounds) for MORE repetitions makes long, lean muscles. I'd also suggest an exercise ball. You can do so much with just your body, two 5 pound weights, and an exercise ball. You can try adding one of those powders from GNC. Sometimes they taste nasty so only get a little container at first to see if you like it instead of buying a huge one and possibly wasting your money because you don't use it.

I don't care which side you're on, just which side you think is winning, and why.

Politically, evolution is winning, despite the fact that we have a freakin crazy religious Republican party (don't get me wrong, the freakin crazy atheist wing of the Democratic party is no better). "Intelligent design" is not whats being taught in schools... science classes are meant to teach science, not pseudo-religious nonsense.\n\nI was never taught "intelligent design" or "creationism" in my science classes in Texas and Louisiana, two of the most conservative places in the country, so I'd say evolution is winning politically.

1 cal = 4.148 J .....1 kcal =1000 cal....1 kcal=4.184 KJ...i dont understand how to find the answer

458 kcal converts to 458000 cal\n\nthe k = kilo which = 1000\n\nso when you remove the k you must insert 1000, hence you multiply 458 by 1000 and get 458000 cal\n\nif 1 cal = 4.184 J then 458000 cal need to be multiplied 4.148 and you will get 1916270 J or 1.91 x 10^6 J\n\nIf you divide the 1916270 by 1000 you can insert a k or kilo.\n\nThis gives you 1916.270 kJ

500 dollars in Center VAlley...like by Allentown?  If that is right, then your best bet is LCCC (Lehigh Carbon Community College).  It is the community college, but I do not think that 500 dollars would even be enough for that.  There are colleges in Center Valley--DeSales and Lehigh Valley College.  LVC is a rip-off (avoid it), and DeSales is a private school (not cheap).  Look into LCCC: www.lccc.edu and see what you can find.

A detective told someone they needed to come down and talk to him on Thursday and if they did not come on that day he would go ahead and tell "them" to sign for a warrant.

The detective is bluffing. He wants the person to come down and talk to him so he can gather enough evidence to get a warrant.

Hey does anyone know how many men were wounded, killed,& captured (on the Confederate's side) during the Battle of Cold Harbor?  Please tell me if you know, I can't find the information ANYWHERE.

Casualty Estimates for the Battle of Cold Harbor \n\nConfederate \n\nNational Park Service\nKilled  0\nWounded 0\nCaptured/Missing 0\nTotal 2,500\n\nBonekemper,Victor,\nNot a Butcher\nKilled 83\nWounded 3,380\nCaptured/Missing \nTotal 4,595\n\nEicher, Longest Night\nKilled 0 \nWounded 0\nCaptured/Missing 0 \nTotal "few thousand"\n\nFox, Regimental Losses\nKilled 0\nWounded 0\nCaptured/Missing 0\nTotal 0\n\nRhea, Cold Harbor\nKilled 0 \nWounded 0\nCaptured/Missing 0 \nTotal 1,500\n\nSmith, Grant\nKilled 0 \nWounded 0\nCaptured/Missing 0 \nTotal 0\n\nThe battle caused a rise in anti-war sentiment in the Northern States. Grant became known as the "fumbling butcher" for his poor decisions. It also lowered the morale of his remaining troops. But the campaign had served Grant's purpose—as foolish as his attack on Cold Harbor was, Lee was trapped. He beat Grant to Petersburg, barely, but spent the remainder of the war (save its final week) defending Richmond behind a fortified trench line: see Siege of Petersburg. The end of the Confederacy was just a matter of time.\n\n\nThis all the information I could find.\nTheir is a link below to confirm my \nsource. GOOD LUCK!


what i mean with this is what is the best revision method and what would you do in this kind of a situation.\ni have tried to wake up early and read but i just can't get up!

Write notes and make diagrams of your notes. Don't just read - you will fall asleep! You could also think of possible questions and come up with your own model answers. This you could do with a friend as long as it's a friend who isn't too distracting! Good luck with your exams!


OK, here goes. I'm a shy person, and I would even spend time alone only because I don't know what to talk to other people about. I'm a college student and there is that beautiful girl I see around, and I would love to talk to her. The problem is that I don't know how to start what to say or to get rejected if I talked to her. \nPlease, if you have a practical and real answer I would like to hear that from you.\nThank you in advance!

Tell here straight away that you are shy, but you've seen here around. That you don't want to try any lame lines on her but you would like to get to know her. Just be sincere don't worry about being rejected, you haven't gotten to that point yet and if she is the type of person that wont give another the time to get to know her then is she even worth the trouble?


History is full of people who died for their faith. Think about that; They believed what they believed so strongly that they would die for it. Most of them are wrong, a few of them are right. When christianity tells you to "have faith like a child" how does that make any sense at all?

No, Christianity says to be HUMBLE as a little child; it is false christianity that says to have FAITH as a child!\n\nMatthew 18:2-4 -- "And Jesus called a little child to Him and set him in their midst, and said, Truly I say to you, Unless you are converted and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of Heaven.  Therefore whoever shall HUMBLE himself like this little child, this one is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven."\n\nThe God of Christianity wants us NOT to be fools, but wise:\n\nLuke 16:8 -- "And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light."\n\nMatthew 10:16 -- "Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the middle of wolves: be you therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves."\n\nI Thessalonians 5:21 -- "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."\n\nProverbs 4:5-7 -- "Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.  Forsake her not, and she shall preserve you: love her, and she shall keep you.  Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding."


The best option IMHO is BSPlayer. This player lets you define the aspect ratio of your widescreen monitor and fits the movie while keeping the aspect ratio. It's a great piece of software.


I would like an opinion on this question, though it would be nice if you present facts and sources. I just would like to try to understand how would Karl Marx feel after seeing societies such as Cuba and the USSR reach despicable, unhabitable circumstances given the economic plead of the governmen. This is of course my personal opinion, if you were to prove me wrong please try to add facts to your answer. \nDo you think the whole communist fad is still plausible if modifications existed in the movement?

In its pure form, I don't think it will ever be successful.  Given human nature, if you get something for "free," there's no real incentive to work.  Capitalism isn't perfect, but it provides a method for those who are driven to reap some rewards.  There's the other side of the coin with providing social benefits in a limited form for those who really need it.  The problem is dividing up those who need it and those are being taking advantage of the system and being lazy.

A man takes a elevator to the 5th floor, gets off and takes the stairs to the 10th floor. Then he gets back on the elevator and takes it to the 15th floor, gets off and takes the stairs to the 20th floor.  He then again gets back on the elevator and takes it to the 23rd floor.  Why does he do this?

Presumably, he is (a) too short to reach the higher buttons, and (b) in a building with separate banks of elevators for each set of 10 floors (so that a person of standard height would still need to change elevators at floors 10 and 20).


If I am in a medical office right after a visit and the office demands an immediate payment, can they arrest you for not paying? I saw they give out parking tokens so you can get out in your car out of the lot after you pay. Can they do that? Can they do anything else?

Absolutely not. Most medical facilities are not allowed to refuse treatment to you even if you cannot pay. Though depending on the circumstance, they may be able to refuse to set another appointment until payment is made (i.e. the dentist)\nI imagine that this facility is using this as a sort of "scare tactic" to prevent people from not paying. However, you are entitled to have a certain amount of time to make a payment. If you cannot make the payment in full you are entitled to make a payment arrangement. If you are sending them a reasonable amount of money each month to try an pay off your bills, they cannot even take you to court over the issue. If they harass you for a higher payment which you are unable to make you can accuse them of harassment.\nIt seems like so many companies try to bully people these days. Please know your rights when it comes to your bills. \nYou are protected under the Fair Debt Collections Practice Act. Though these laws apply to collection agencies, I am certain they would also apply to anyone trying to collect a debt, including your hospital.\nCheck out the link below.

Why do i have thought of killing myself???\nIm 14 and im very depressed...I dont know what to do????

It is normal to feel down about yourself at this age and during your life. Everyone needs someone that they can be with and vent to on occasion but besides that you need a friend.  Not just someone to talk to but a genuine friend that will laugh with you, cry with you, and be there for you when you need them to be. Not some person that is jsut there because of something you have and or could give them. First you must find what is making you feel so depressed. Once you have found that think about why you feel this way and telling yourself "I don't know" isn't the answer.  I mean who can you be honest with but yourself first, huh? I did a journal when I felt really down and that nothing was going right and then I tried this.  It helped me so much that I started letting go the bad feelings and bad thoughts and started living without a care about those thoughts again.  If you still are depressed then you may want to find out why and instead of being unhappy start thinking of what got you to this point. Everyone has to hit rock bottom before they can start climbing outta the hole. You aren't there yet but I don't want you there. I want you to be able to be happy and content with everything you do.\n\nGood luck my dear!


do you think he is moving to fast or he just really like me?

Probably because he truly cares for you!  Just because you're meeting his parents doesn't mean you two are getting married.  \n\nThat being said, if you are uncomfortable with the idea, you should tell him, and if he cares about you at all he should respect your feelings.

I am not a coplete idiot about computers, but when it comes to memory upgrades, I am at a lost for manufacturers and such... I have never heard of Crucial Technology till I started looking into my upgrade and so I was just curious if anyone knows if they are reasonably mainstream?

If I become a pharmacist can I get credit to have a pharmacy and if I decide to be a dentist can I have a personal clinic or not, and which one do you offer to choose in order to have good job upportunities ?

There's currently a pharmacist shortage in the US. Starting salaries around 90,000 dollars per year. Dentists are always in need too. You can open your own pharmacy in the US but most pharmacist work for someone else, as the industry is dominated by chain pharmacies. Pharmacists also work in hospitals, clinics, etc.

If it were not negative it would not take place.  That is the point of delta G - it is a measure of free energy based on a combination of the heat released (delta H) and the entropy (randomness) - delta S.  If delta G is not negative for a given process under a given set of conditions, then that process will not occur.  If the process does occur, then delta G is negative.  Now - be careful - just because delta G is negative does not mean a process will neccesarily occur - or at least occur at an appreciable rate - in amny cases you need activation energy to "get the process over the hump" to make things happen.  Example - matches - they ignite - that is a negative delta G process - but it doesn't happen spontaneously - at least not at room temperature - you need to activate the process by heat or friction.

papers, forms, id, etc how are they going to send me the money: check, cash , etc?

Call the company that issued the policy.  They will send you a package with the company forms that need to be completed in order to get paid.\n\nYou will need:\n1. the policy\n2. the death certificate - ask the funeral home to provide.\n3. the insurance company forms.\n\nOnce complete, they will review and if straightforward, the insurance companies usually issue you a checkbook that is good up to the amount of the policy proceeds.  You can keep the money in this account and write checks when you need them or write one big check to yourself and deposit in your own accounts.


Which one is correct?\nOne: Can I see the sales figure *of last year?\nTwo: Can I see the sales figure *for last year?\nThree: Can I see the sales figure *from last year?\nFour: Can I see the sales figure *on last year?

Actually, they are all ok, although Four is a bit cumbersome.  My personal preference would be 2 or 3.


I was sleeping and woken up by a demon I managed to fight him off and rebuke him . When I went back to sleep I woke up feeling tired and felt I was not myself anymore what happened.

Do you mean like, something is crushing you on your chest? Just feel like something is sitting on you? You can't breath? What do you mean you managed to fight him off? \nIn ancient times, its called Succubus/Incubus.\n\nNeedless to say, I have had similar experience like something is sitting on my chest, can't move and cold rush all over my body. It happened for a few months, I didn't opened it up to anyone because I am afraid they would think of me as a paranoid or something. But then, I managed to tell a friend about it and it never happened again.\n\np.s. it always happens in one particular bedroom of the house, and mind you, my 16-year old niece told me the same experience about it (she had no idea that I was experiencing the same thing)


when was the park established and what is the size of it, thank you

Wrangell - St. Elias National Park and Preserve is the largest in the NPS system at 13.2 million acres (20,625 sq miles).  Until Wrangell - St. Elias was added in 1980, Yellowstone, at 2,219,789 acres (3,472 sq mile) was the largest and still is the largest in the lower 48 states.


I would mostly use it for office work and dowloading ALOT of music for my iPod.

It is very hard to say which notebook is best. \n\nHowever, given that you would be using it primarily for office work and downloading lots of music for your iPOD, it is imperitive to say the least that you would require a HARD DRIVE with lots of space. \n\nThe ideal configuration for you would be - \n\n1) Intel Centrino Processor, which is designed for mobile computing needs. Since you would also be using it for office work, one would presume that you would be carrying it often. So you would want to have a processor designed for laptops and not desktops. New technology like Centrino Duo processor will be an added boon, but is really not required for your pruposes.\n\n2) The minimum RAM you would want to go for is atleast 512 MB. This is because for office work you would be working on system hungry applications like Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Outlook etc. Moreover, a 512 MB RAM would help you to smoothly uprade to Microsoft Windows Vista edition for which the minimum RAM requirement is 512 MB RAM.\n\n3) You would need a hard drive with atleast 100 GB of space as you would be downloading lots of music for your iPOD. Try to go in for a SATA hard drive with 7200 RPM. This will transfer music to your iPOD faster than conventional hard drives.\n\n4) You would want to have CD/RW drive in your laptop. A DVD/ROM CD/RW combo would be handy if you want to use it for occassional DVD viewing.\n\n5) A dedicated graphics card in your case is not required.\n\n6) For your kind of purpose you really don't need the screen size bigger than 14". This would not only lower your budget but also help you in carrying it. (Trust me bigger the screen size, the bulkier and heavier the laptop)\n\n7) Lastly buy a laptop from a vendor, who provides good service like onsite next business day warrenty. You don't want to keep running to the service centre in time of a crisis (laptops are complex machines and prone to defects).\n\nHowever, the choice of a laptop (like a car) is very personal and individualistic.

I have had sexual intercouse about 6 times and all the times I felt no pleasure through penetration of the penis why is this? It's so annoying to have to fake it or to tell someone I didn't feel anything and they look clueless as well as me. All my other friends tell me about their sex life and how good it is but I am just left with nothing to say because I don't know what good sex is because of my problem.

The first year I had sex it was the same thing.  Once you get a really good loving relationship, and you have sex for months, things will get better.  You can't expect good sex without a good long-term relationship.  Ignor your friends.

Schneider, "Living the Good Life with Autism"\n\nJerry Newport, "Your Life is Not a Label: A Guide to Living Fully with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome"\n\nStephen Shore, "Beyond the Wall: Personal Experiences with Autism and Asperger Syndrome" \n\nWilliam Stillman, "Demystifying the Autistic Experience"\n\nHope this helps!


My boyfriend is incredible, he rubs my feet, cooks for me some times, and is always so considerate. How do I pamper him and make him feel special?

Little things truly mean a lot!\n\nWhen your setting next to him, take his hand and massage it.  While watching TV, sit behind him and massage his back, shoulders and neck.  Leave him alone when he wants to be alone.  Bring him his favorite drink when he's relaxing on the deck.  Don't nag him, communicate with him.  Fix his favorite meals at least once a week.  Give him what he wants sexually.  Listen to him when he wants to complain about a co-worker or boss.\n\nYou know him better than anyone.  There's probably other little things that he enjoys that only you know about.  Use that knowledge and it will bring you both closer to each other.


hi, this is my 2nd week of penicillin VK and before that took amoxil (for my strep throat/tonsilitis) for a week which did not help at all..i am feeling a little better, dont get me wrong, but still have the redness in the back of my throat, bith sides and still have the colony of blisters but not as many...they are diminishing..i have had this for a month already..is this normal for the redness to still be around and for this to heal even though i am on penicillin? as long as i take the penicillin VK, do i have any worries as far as any bacteria forming anymore or any other rheumatic fever or throat abscess forming at all??   sorry for all the questions but i appreciate all the input you can give me..

You really shouldn't still have symptoms if they gave you an antibiotic over a week ago.  If you still are having the symptoms when you're done with the pcn you need to call your dr. and tell him he needs to prescribe you a stronger antibiotic!\n\nThere is no reason why you should be suffering from those symptoms for a month.


I mean, it is crazy, but in some ways magnificent. How the whole world adapted to money.

Yeah,I toughed about it.You know,in the world,there has to be some order.That order is mad with help-money.You see,not everyone thinks at this way.When I am buying chocolate or bread,or anything else,I think to my self:I am giving her just paper and coins.She is giving me food.But money...It makes people do awful things.Killings,corruptions,wars-everything just because of the money.It is sad really.Humans highest goal is to earn more money,then spend it,then earn more money etc.etc.You can stop it.But if you think for just like 5 seconds,you will see that,unfortunately,money does make the world go around.It is true.


Between Minnesota Vikings and Seattle Seahawks. Because of the "poison pill" fiasco. Minnesota include one to get Hutchinson from Seattle, and Seattle included on to get Burleson from Minnesota. They even play each other this season.

Rivalries have to start somewhere.  It's very possible that the "poison pills" could be the start of this one.


Assume that all of the Brazilian and English players are healthy and explain how manager Eriksson could outwit the Brazilian manager and players...

First of all Coach Eriksson should pay attention to the important players such as Ronaldinho , Adriano, Kaká, Robinho and Ronaldo and the sectors of the field to be neutralized.\n\nHe also should consider the weak points to apply the counter attacks and use the following tactics:\n\n-individual tactics: ( the 1×1 concept offensive defensive)\n-group tactics: (the 2×1 in a situation of 5×5)\n-team tactics: (apply the match condition from 6×5 to 11×11)\n\nBrazilians always play in these 2 kinds of line -ups:\n\nGoalkeeper + 2X4X4(defenders X wings and middle fields X center forwards/attackers) or Goalkeeper + 3X5X2.\n\nI would love to give my opinion about the line-up too, but I'm not familiar with the list of English players selected for the British National Team.\n\nBut one thing I can tell you for sure: The Brazilian National Team is definitely better and stronger than the English one for this World Cup!\n\nAnd it will be nice to see a reprise of the semifinal from 2002, when the Brazilians kicked the cute British butts out of the Final, hehehe...\n\nAs it common to say in the Football world..."The English invented it, the Brazilians perfected it."


They hug and kiss like gf,s...and she says nothing when she kiss,s me. or she shows her breasts to us.?????

Ok, in my opinion the answers that you have gotten thus far are really cliché! This is coming from someone who has been there, done that, and my fiancé and I are still happily engaged.\n First, let me say that threesomes ARE risky. NEVER try to use a threesome to fix anything wrong in a relationship. If there you are already having issue, it will just amplify it!\n However, it does not sound like that is the case in your relationship. It sounds, from what little you wrote, that you have a healthy relationship and this other woman is putting these thoughts into your head. \n Here is what I would advise. First, find out if your wife is interested. Bring it up when you have not seen your friend in a day or two, and do NOT mention the friend. The reason is that if you do mention the other woman, and your wife does not want to do it, she will never trust you or her friend again, regardless of your intentions. \n Now, if she is interested, the next thing that you need to say to her is that it is an interesting idea, kind of a turn on, but you don't think you could actually go through with it. This may not be 100% the truth, but the fact is if you seem eager then she is going to react very negatively. Let her lead the way. If she is interested, once you have broached the subject, it will come up again. Try to avoid suggesting the friend, let your wife do so. Basically, you want this to all be her idea. The reason is that when it is done she is more likely then you to have issues with it, and if she feels that it was her idea then she probably won't. If she feels that you in any way pushed her into it, however, and there are any regrets, they will lead to resentment, gutanteed!\n Next, if you do decide to do this, set boundaries. Talk about what you are both comfortable with. If you cannot talk about this in detail without arguing, then don't do the deed!!\n In the heat of the moment, make sure you stick to the boundaries. You can always discuss them afterwards, and relax them in any future encounters.\n Finally, try to make the experience as enjoyable as possible for your wife. If you and the other woman both concentrate primarily on your wife's pleasure, she is much more likely to enjoy the experience, and you are much more likely to have a repeat.\n Good luck!!

almost every scientist support both of these and yet they still face strong opposition from those refuse to accept. does anyone one here believe in one issue, but does not believe in the other?

well, what a unique question!...obviously we cannot prove either one or the issues would have already been settled. this is like asking which is worse?.....'the tree hugger or the chain around the tree?......global warming can only happen if it has happened before..if it happened before, it is sure to happen again but then thats saying that we will evolve into another type of being.....we cant prove we evolved from apes, i dont like to think we did. but i dont like to think we will ever use nuclear weapons but we already have......the earth will surely go through some catastrophy at some point in time, i mean they claim it on t.v.,.....we see shows about asteroids and so forth, why cant we have global warming or even a type of supernatural winter?.....maybe caused by a huge volcano or comet or something.  if you can dream it up,...our goverment will make it happen even if it's only on t.v., at any rate, the proposition will end up costing you tax dollars. global warming is the tree hugger's way of getting on television. the evolutionist just got there before him.....everybody gets thier 15 seconds of fame.  so the answer to your question is "yes".

hey a-holes sometimes it's just not our fault, take a good look at your own culture and take some responsibility.

Because ignorancy is the reason, they don't realize that pointing the finger to the west is not any way solving the problem that they have with us if anything it only antagonizes us to a point where we want to beat the heck out of them. But you have to understand if there clerics aren't trying to teach them anything different how would you expect the people to be any different. So they feel by burning the American flag is a good thing. Something else I should mention, There society is all messed up simply because they have religious fundamentalist that are to me nothing but radicals that are teaching the word of the Quran wrong and twisting it to there own personal gain. Anytime they do that you have radical exstremist that follow along with the belief that it is right. They choose to blame the Americans because out of ignorance they are not willing to put the blame where it really belongs and it is with them. But as you see none of them are willing to do that but they are quick to blame the West for any and everything that goes on with there society. What I want to know is when do they really wake up and see what they are doing to there people because all they are doing is confusing them where they don't know what is right from what is wrong. And when is the Islamic clerics and leaders are going to start teaching good instead of hate to the extremist? I guess when God comes and wipe the real infedels from the face of the earth.

static between persons.. why does it happen. can someone explain it please... seriously.

It is just the equalizing of electrical charge between two people or a person and a conductive object.\n\nFor example, if your dragging your feet on the carpet, you are building up a greater negative electrical charge on your body.  When you come in contact with someone who has less negative charge than you, nature tries to make everything equal by sharing some of your negative charge.  \n\nSimilar concept if you add saltwater to pure water, the mix shares the salt with the "less salty" water.  Now the pure water is more salty, but the salt water is less salty than it was.  Hope this helps.\n\nThe link below is a bit more complex, but explains the underlying priciples.

my right knee been hurting relly bad.......eassiply when i go up and down  the sairs at the appertment.......  andsometimes it hurts to walk.  or if i lift something  heavey it acts like it wants to give out.

If You have an unstable knee. Your pain is due to a mechanical problem and the problem at the patello-femoral joint. This could be because you seem to have neglected your exercise regime and post-operative instructions. It will be a little strenuous but you can build up your muscles around the knee joint and also at the hip so that you can get back to your normal gait. I would advise you to go to a local physiotherapist and learn your exercises.\n\n1. Relaxed knee swinging.\n\n2. Straight leg raising (later adding weights).\n\n3. Isometeric Quadriceps contractions.\n\n4. Knee flexion exercises and cycling (speed and time to be increased gradually).\n\n5. Progressive resisted exercises as per your progress.\n\n6. Hamstring stretching and strengthening.\n\n7. Aim at getting full knee extension terminally.\n\n8. Strengthening exercises for adductor and internal rotator muscles.\n\n9. Gait training.\n\n10. Gradually progress to kneeling, assisted squatting, stair climbing and descending and cross legged sitting.\n\n11. Aim at reducing your weight too. This is causing additional strain on your knee.\n\nYou will have to combine exercises and relaxation techniques in order to get maximum results.

Breathing throgh nose in a smoke filled room or car, or bething through mouth in a smoke filled room or car.

Well!, If you have to choose, breathing through your nose at least gives you a little filtration...vie the nose hairs.  You can blow your nose and get rid of some of the smoke.  You must know that neither is good for you!


Anyone now a place in little rock arkansas where i can get this done?\nplus are there any side effects...maybe like an ear falling off. and would it be good to take diet pills while using the staple? i heard if you use the diet pills and take colon cleansers while on the staple you will lose a "ton". will that be healthy??? let me hear what you have to say

Don't staple, it just cant be good for you.


i know this person who has all signs of a thyroid problem thinning & falling of hair, weight gain, dry skin, skipped periods, and constipation problems? the test revealed her thyroid was normal? is it possible it went un noticed in the test? or does she really have this problem?

YES!!!!!\nI had an underactive thyroid for ten years and the blood test was always near the border for underactive thyroid so I was never treated for it since it was JUST inside the normal range.\nI finally had it slip into the abnormal range on the test and got on thyroid treatment. My depression of 15 years went away and my hair stopped falling out, my skin stopped being like sand paper, and lots of other problems went away.\nThat test they do, the TSH test, has the top level set too high so that people who should be on thyroid hormone replacemetn therapy are not treated when they sould be.\nYour friend should try to find a doctor who will give her a prescription for thyroid pills!!!!!\nShe sould get a copy of the results of the blood test and see for herself if the results show she is NEAR the border for under active thyroid. That is a very wide range on that TSH test and many feel it is TOO wide a range of normal. Many people show being in the normal range when actually they need to be on thyroid replacemetn therapy.\nThe doctor goes only by the TSH test hopefully.\nI could kill that doctor I went to who for years told me my thyroid was normal when I had such awful symptons and was near the cut off point of normal on the TSH test.\nI suffered needlessly for ten years or more.\n\nThere is an EXCELLENT site for your frined and it is on http://thyroid.about.com/ and it is the thyroid forum on there.\nShe can and should get her scores from her TSH test and post the results for the other people on that forum to see and they are experts on thyroid problems and will let her know what she should do. I can highly recommend that site! It helped me a lot with my underactive thyroid problem.


Note: Please don't give me a politically correct answer!!!!

I personally would . On the other hand racism these days seems to be more hidden then ever . The people who make judgments on race are smart enough to stay politically correct in public . But in the anonymity of a voting booth ?\nIt would also depend on the agenda of the candidate . If they were vocal on Black issues they wouldn't stand a chance . For your info I am Caucasian.


Does your friend have a better life, children, job, etc...

If you could change your career, what would you do?\n\nFor example, I'm going to school to become a police officer, but in my heart, I would rather be racing along side the boys in Nascar. \n\nSo what would you rather be doing?

well i will be honest and say i would rather NOT be working...i want a husband who is rich so i don't have to work...and i can shop/travel/whatever when i want to....that is what i would rather be doing....


A recent survey report I read in a newspaper stated that 84% of girls wouldn't date a man that was shorter than themselves.. is this true?\nDoes the height of a guy matter that much to you girls when your looking for a date?

Yes, size does matter.  But height of a guy never been a problem with me 'cause most guys are taller than me....even my 13-year-old little brother.

Meeting new people to have as friends, and possibly a relatinship, or a furure soul mate.

There are many sources for meeting new people.  If you like hiking, there are single hiking clubs.  Take a class just for fun, like something recreational, gym, softball, etc..  If you have a dog, go to a dog park or park. These are few of many things out there.  Enjoy!


My husband has a small knot in his scrotum. It does not appear to be attached to the testicle as in testicular cancer. Should he see a doctor ASAP?

If it is something new - that is, he's never noticed it before despite regular self-examination, then yes, it's worth checking with his doctor.  Tell him not to panic, but not to delay either.  As you suspect, if it is not actually a knot or lump ON a testicle, it probably isn't cancer of the testicle.\nIf it is painful, bleeds or exudes any sort of liquid, he needs to see the doctor quite soon.

I've purchased at least 15 different commercial sales products, all hailing their remarkable ingredients and research and proported results.  Not one came close to working any better than placebo sugar pills might.  If I have 3 bottles of lite beer, after a full meal, I am definately groggy and queasy the following day.  All the anecdotal home remedy cures are equally useless.  Other than abandoning alcohol completely, is there something out there that truly renders relief?

He already broke up with her and they got back together and she wanted to no if she should break up with him.

well does she love him? if she does then they should stay togetheR! but if he treats her like shit then no they shouldnt be together~ give her that advice but dont tell her to do ANYTHING! just let her know that then tell her its her choice and make sure she knows you support her in whatever choice she makes!~


I have a 1 year old daughter from a previuos relation ship.  I re-married my ex husband, we got back together when I was 3 months pregnant.  He wanted to her father and asume resonsibility for her.   But now he is constently saying hurtful things.  Such as he is not her dad, he was not her sperm donor, he is always throwing this up in my face.  I am worried that when my daughter is older that these  things will hurt her.  So I filed to have dna testing done to prove that my ex is her biologal father, and have my husbands name taken of her BC. Was I wrong.  My husband took responsibilty because her biological dad wanted nothing to do with her.  Any suggestions

Since your husband's name is on her birth certificate he is her legal father, even if he's not her biological father. The two of you are married now. You've made a commitment before God to love, honor, cherish and be faithful to one another till death parts you. Are you ready to trash it this quickly? You and your husband need some serious marriage counseling before it's to late to salvage your marriage. If he refuses to go, go alone. At least you'll have some help dealing with his horrible behavior. I don't know how any one could not love such a precious little one. He knew it wasn't his and he married you. Made a commitment to you. He needs to learn (through counseling) to deal with the fact that he's her dad! To heck with the biology! I pray the 2 of you can find a way back to the love that brought you to the altar in the first place! God Bless!


I am 21 years old and I am currently investing in the Vanguard Total Stock Market index fund. I have been thinking about moving the money to the target retirement fund for my age, I seriously get the impression though that vanguard allocates too much to very low risk investments and too fast, If i were to invest it in right now i think its about 7% bonds, and it increases every year till retirement. Does anyone else thing that those funds are a little too cautious? \n\n     I was thinking about also just sticking with Total Stock Market Index and maybe add a International index fund as well, what do you guys think?\n\n     Is there a specific age where I should start worrying about risk and shifting to bonds, etc.?

The Target Retirement Funds are a "one size fits all" approach, and not everyone has the same risk tolerance.  If you are sure you can stomach the volatility of 100% stocks then invest in 100% stocks for retirement.  I would suggest about 20% or so foreign stocks, for a slight decrease in your volatility.  If you have some money outside an IRA invest some of that portion in foreign stocks for the Foreign dividend tax credit.  Note that the Target Retirement funds invest ~20% in foreign stocks, but they can't offer the foreign tax credit because of the way they are structured.\n\nIf you are investing solely for retirement, 100% stocks may be a good idea.  Remember to fund other goals, like a rainy day fund for when you lose your job.  (It happens to the best.) Layoffs are most likely when the economy and stock market are down.   You also need to save for a down payment on a house.  Do you want to delay buying a house because the market is down 50%?\n\nThere is no magic age at which you have to start converting to bonds.  Off the top of my head, I would suggest 20-30 years before retirement.\n\nBefore investing in 100% stocks take their quiz to see if you have the stomach:


I'd like to report as "abusive" where can I do this?

If your country has cyber laws book a complaint with the local police. Some email providers like hush mail who help people browse anonymously require such a complaint to trace the individual.

Ive been dating this guy for about 8 months and now i want some thing more but im affraid ill scare him away, but im also worried because ive seen him with other girls and he always has an excese, so im affraid to be his girlfriend. what should i do ?

it depends if you really do still want him, but remember that maybe the other girls are just his friends, don't get jealous. dont right out ask him for something more, try giving him more so that maybe he'll understand and give you more back. i do think that you should stay with him though if you've gone 8 months without any other problems


every time I ask a question they delete five points and it gets on my nerves because it forces me to answer questions to get my points back

you get 3 points back when you pick a "best answer" for your questions, so you are really only losing 2 points.\n\nAlso, if you don't want to answer questions you can do those thumbs up or down ratings to get points.


What are ways to lose like 5 lbs or more a week.I need to lose 15 lbs or more by May 10th, 2006.Please help.

2 things will help you lose weight: Diet and Exercise\n\nI reccomend getting on a very strict diet 5 small meals a day with a lot of water consumption (it helps to cleanse your body).  If you are able to run outdoors do so in the morning and evening.  Running will help get your bodies metabolism going which will burn calories throughout the day.\n\nI think if you are able to do both those things you will meet your goal.


that is one thing i have always wonderd, but i realize that it has to do with nature, when they are younger they feed off the breast. the reason most of us women arent into them is because we have a set of our own.


What do people get out of it?  How does it make you feel?  What time is the best time to surf?  Any information - especially why people are so obssessed with it would be helpful...

It's a personal challenge, and a very spiritual way to immerse yourself in a natural environment. You're harnessing the power of nature for your own enjoyment and though you have control over your own movements you're ultimately at the mercy of the ocean, which demands respect.\n\nIt's hard to learn, and often very frustrating. But like anything worth doing the rewards can be incredible. There is no way to describe the rush of paddling for a wave, feeling it accelerate you down the face as you jump to your feet. Hearing the rush of white water behind you while you smoothly carve turns into a wall of liquid. Experiencing gravity, momentum and g-force combine to create speed. Every wave is as different as every surfer. You may choose to pull 360 aerials, hurtle down 30 foot monsters or just cruise on a longboard riding gentle ripples.\n\nLike they say, "only a surfer knows the feeling"...


When a couple love each other..it's divine. But when the same couple  separated for any reason (specially out of hate), where is the previously shown divine love?

love and hate are the same thing...it's just that hate is love turned selfish. and love can turn selfish if it has been hurt.\n\nthink of hate as self-love and you will understand. \n\nthe love didn't go anywhere, it just changed to love itself more than the other person.


Offering a lengthy explanation of why he hates Americans, Moussaoui criticized the United States' support for Israel. He said Muslims have been at war with Christians and Jews for centuries. Israel, he said, is "just a missing star in the American flag."\n\nMoussaoui told jurors that Islam requires Muslims to be the world's superpower as he flipped through a copy of the Koran searching for verses to support his assertions. One he cited requires non-Muslim nations to pay a tribute to Muslim countries.\n\n"We have to be the superpower. You have to be subdued. We have to be above you," Moussaoui said. "Because Americans, you are the superpower, you want to eradicate us."\n\nhttp://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,191583,00.html\n\nFor more in Islam, see\nhttp://princesskimberley.blogspot.com/

I believe that islam is a type of organized hatred promoter who wants to gain control of the whole world to establish a one single Islamic Nation

well let us take a "logical" look....the big bang says that there was nothing, then something, and now everything is expanding away.  So how did things get farther away than time has permitted?  Hmmm...kind of a hole in the theory.


Please tell me!! I am doing a project, and I need as many governors and famous people that were born in New York.

Pataki, George Elmer (pətä'kē, –tăk'ē) , 1945–, U.S. politician, b. Peekskill, N.Y. He graduated from Yale Univ. (1967) and Columbia Law School (1970). A Republican, Pataki served as mayor of Peekskill (1981–84) and in the New York assembly (1985–92) and senate (1992–94). In 1994 he defeated incumbent Mario Cuomo to become governor of New York state. One of his first acts as governor was to reinstitute the death penalty in the state. He was reelected in 1998 and 2002.\n\nFor other famous people born in New York. See the URL below.

According to a site I found its also known as Kanamara Marsuri Festival and they take it quite serious.  A festival to celebrate fertility.  http://www.2camels.com/destination92.php3\nFrom what I am understanding here it involves Shinto statues and temples and for the most part it is important to even devout Shinto Families and Shinto Priests.\nhttp://www.answers.com/pink%20phallus%20festival?ff=1


can any of you tell me what this means? i just don't get it\n\nI asked Jesus\n"How much do you love me?"\n"This much"\nHe answered.\nThen He stretched\nout his arms\nand died.\n  What does it mean?

It is Jesus on the cross dying to save your sins. He loved you enough to take brutal beatings, and then finally to be crucified. He did this for you, so that you can be free from your sins. Watch the "Passion of the Christ", it will give you a good idea of what Jesus really did for you.


Person X treats me like a child.  The workplace does belong to someone that has a very close relation to me and as this is a small town, getting rid of person X would be a bad idea.  For the past month and a half, I have been biting my tongue making sure not to say anything back, but finally, there has been something that ABSOLUTELY ticked me off.  Person X scolded me as if I was one of her children.  I may be half of their age but she has NO right whatsoever to talk to me in the manner that she did.  There was a little mixup that day, and person X made a comment that was offensive, I said "I understand that it is yadadada..."  Later on person X comes in and goes "I never want you to talk to me like that in front of a customer ever again, you understand?"  and for the sake of the business, I said ok.  Honestly, I work there also and I do not believe that I should be treated this way. It is crucial that I not offend her because we need help, but this situation is getting out of control.

This person may not be aware that she is doing this. It probably is the way she talks to her children. The best thing to do and the hardest is to have a sit down talk with her and tell her how you feel.  If she doesn't respond well, try again but with some other adult sitting in to be a moderator.


my bf talks to me one day for more than 6 hours and then it is morning when we finish talking but then later that day he dont call me back sometimes it is for days i dont hear from him what do you think that means?

He probably ran out of words to say you know us girls can go on talking for hours but guy tend to talk of mostly loving or important things which will not last as long as you and your girlfriend would gossip, give him time the closer you get the more calls you'll get.


I have a stairmaster that I like to exercise on. The problem I have is that I get all sweaty and need to shower. I would like to exercise in the early afternoon which is my down time but don't want to shower again. But I am willing to do it anytime if there is a good (scientific?) reason to do so.

I think morning is the best time then have a shower and get dressed thats what I do.


If something is travelling at the speed of light and something else is travelling 1000 miles slower than that is the difference between the two objects still the speed of light? if it is then how?

Yes the difference between the two are still the speed of light -- it's because at speed of light, or even just factions of the speed of light "normal" Neut on physics stops and only relativity theory explains what happens.  At speed of light time no longer move at the same rate, so the two object will not have same reference in time, and since speed is distance over time, the comparison make little sense to the normal perception of how things work.\n\nAn that ultimately explain why the difference between the two is not 1000 miles per hour.


I really need to know your honest thoughts... You may check my answers and questions... And you may correct my mistakes... I am looking for your usefull advices... Thank you...

You're doing great!  The one English Language Learner error I consistently see is your difficulty with using articles (a, an, the).\n\nReview your writing and ask yourself the following as you do it: Does every singular noun have an article? Does every plural noun in the subject of the sentence have "the" in front of it?\n\nExamples:\n\nA dog      is eating    a bone.\nA dog      is eating    bones.\nThe dogs   are eating   a bone.\nThe dogs   are eating   bones.\n\nNote the Subject of each sentence (the first noun) always has an article. Note that the Object of each sentence (the second noun) has an article if it is singular.\n\nA proper noun (people and places individual names) does not take articles.\n\nOf course, it being English, there are always exceptions to any grammar rule...lol. But if you follow this, in general, your "sound" in your writing will improve dramatically.\n\nHope that helps!  But like I said before, except for this (and a couple of spelling errors), your English is excellent!

Actually, no person in the U.S. can petition on your behalf if you wish to study in the United States (if you desire to immigrate, a family member or workplace can petition on your behalf).  \n\nTo come to the U.S. as a student, you would first have to demonstrate your eligibility for admission at a U.S. college or university.  The college or university would have to admit you and submit confirmation paperwork to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within the Department of Homeland Security.  Once this is completed, you would have to apply for a U.S. visa at the U.S. Embassy in Manila.  To be eligible for a visa under U.S. law, you would be required to demonstrate that you have strong ties to your home country (the Philippines) that would compel your return after completion of your studies. This means that you would need to convince the consular officer adjuditicating your visa application that you do not intend to immigrate.  (See the U.S. Department of State's page on visa eligibility and denials: http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/denials/denials_1361.html.)\n\nDespite what you may have heard, the majority of student visa applications received are approved and the visas are issued.  Over 572,000 students were enrolled in U.S. colleges and universities during the 2003-2004 academic year.  Other initiatives have also been undertaken to facilitate student visa processing and issuance (See U.S. Secretary of State Rice's recent remarks on student visas: http://www.state.gov/secretary/rm/2006/59239.htm).


Please do NOT give me a category like cardio. Be SPECIFIC. Also any suggestions in terms of workout tapes would be nice

Running in the park & treadmill work best for me, along with a sensible diet. More vegetables than meat, along with lots of salids. we need the protein also, but watch fatty cuts. Swimming is also good if you can do several laps. I like to work my legs good. can burn caloties & help with the running. Any good work out that brings on the sweat will burn calories and that is really the name of the game. For me, counting all calories has been the best weight loss diet of all. Got to see yourself thin. Diet or workouts by themselves alone never work. It takes both in equal effort.
