i am doing a report and need to know about end stage liver disease. i need to know who it affects and at what age. also i need to know any cultural backgrounds or socioeconomics that may influence food choices for a person who has end stage liver disease.

Usually end stage liver disease has a lot of causes to mention: infections (viral, including HAV,  HBV, HCV (rarely), HDV, HEV, bacterial, rickettsial, parasitic), drugs and toxins, ischemia (shock), Budd-Chiari syndrome,idiopathic chronic active hepatitis, acute Wilson's disease, microvesicular fat syndromes (Reye's syndrome, acute fatty liver of pregnancy). For all the mentioned diseases, if they are left untreated and not given full attention they will lead to END STAGE LIVER DISEASE. So it purely depends on what age the individual contracted the disease. For instance if that individual took a medication that is toxic to the liver at a very young age,then develop the signs and symptoms of liver pathology and neglect it then there is a likelihood that the individual will further go into complication leading to end stage liver disease. So its important for you to know  what is the causes of every disease I mentioned earlier. For that it will give you an idea what are the factors involved leading to it. I hope I have given you enough information and if you have more feel free to ask me. Good Luck...

i want to know if derik lee of the cubs is better than sean casey......

derek lee by far.  Casey is over the hill.  Lee is still young.  Lee is a gold glove first baseman.  Lee will hit close to 40 homeruns every year (as long as he plays at hitter-friendly wrigley field)


Without fail, every time I proofread my own papers, I always miss something including typos, missing words, or little grammatical errors that I know the rules to but somehow forgot to include.  I am an English major and work as a tutor, so this is highly embarassing to have these mistakes in my own work.  Any suggesstions?

When you originate a written work, it's natural to skip over things, believing you couldn't have made a mistake here, there, etc.\n\nWhen you're looking at someone else's work, it's not familiar to you.  It's natural to look at every word and phrase with scrutiny.  Not so with your own work.


Just a guess: psychotropic, Mood Altering, and anti-depressants?

I need to write a good easy 5 paragrah I need to organize it well my topic is about "If I could change 3 things at school what would they be?" I need help proving my poing help plz. I need to do good.

I still rely on one single thing to help me write the best possible essay I can . . . an outline. See, the problem with most essays is that the content is disorganized. You may have great ideas and facts that you want to write about, but somewhere during the writing process you start mixing them up. Suddenly your perfect paper sounds all wrong and you want to scream! I've found that the best papers I've ever written (meaning my A papers) have all started with a good, solid outline. Once you have an outline down, your paper writes itself. Your thoughts are organized and the teacher can understand your main point (which is your thesis) and how you supported that point. A focused paper is the key to writing a good essay. Here's the format for the outline I usually follow:\n\nI. Topic / Title\n\nII. Introduction of Essay\nA. Write a few sentences that lead into the main point of your essay\nB. End the paragraph with your thesis statement (3 main points you are going to support)\n     1. First point in thesis\n     2. Second point in thesis\n     3. Third point in thesis\n\nIII. Body of Essay\nA. Topic One - First Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\nB. Topic Two - Second Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\nC. Topic Three - Third Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\n\nIV. Conclusion\nA. Write a few sentences summarizing your essay\nB. Restate your thesis and how you proved your point\n\nOnce you fill in the blanks to this outline with your topic and information, the rest is easy! Make sure to check your spelling and punctuation, and then you're good to go!


Its not as cool as you think it is, really.\n\nFodder: \n# Feed for livestock, especially coarsely chopped hay or straw.\n# Raw material, as for artistic creation.\n# A consumable, often inferior item or resource that is in demand and usually abundant supply \n\nAnd, yes, I do get the symbolic use... I swear.

I'll let you in on a secret. We intellectuals use the word "fodder" in place of the word "f--ker", so that the fools we're talking about don't know we're really talking about them.


my options is yes because Iraq's familys die cause they are angry and possible destory our land in usa and pay their back.

Iraqis are too busy killing each other, and once we leave that is the only people they will be killing. It's called civil war folks. You can sanitise it with pretty words all you want, they just found 24 dead bodies hung up today alone. Blood in the steets sounds very enjoyable, dirt.

Where can I find info explaining in detail these lines and if they have a ryme or reason.  I want to know too why they do not put all the stocks up there and keep repeating the same ones.

They tend to show them in order of popularity first, then in alphabetical order.

Well, i have the same question as you do. Let me show you a website that is really helping me, i hope it will help you too. There they list your career options, criteria and college where you can study.\nGood luck!


what are the necessary documents when visiting Biafra?can a Filipino be allowed to work in Biafra while visiting the country?

Biafra was a break-away part of Nigeria in the late 1960s, which acted to bring it back into the Nigerian fold. A few countries recognized the Republic of Biafra, but it is no longer in existence. It has no embassy in the Phillipines or anywhere else. In order to visit Biafra, you must go through and to Nigeria. I believe Nigeria does not permit visitors to work, unless they are visiting for the purpose of working (Peace Corps, medical care, etc.).


where can I find the printable version of the old english alphabet I'm using it for a tattoo

We just did the same thing this last weekend. If you go in to a word pad or somewhere you can type a document, you can type out what ever you want to have tattooed, increase the text and change the font.


what can you tell me about Woodrow Wilson, and where can i find this info online?

Thomas Woodrow Wilson (December 28, 1856 – February 3, 1924) was the 26th President of the United States (1913–1921). A devout Presbyterian, he became a noted historian and political scientist. As a reform Democrat he was elected Governor of New Jersey in 1910 and President in 1912. His first term as president resulted in major legislation including the Federal Reserve System. Reelected in 1916, his second term centered on World War I and his efforts in 1919 to shape the Treaty of Versailles, which was rejected by the Senate.


I've already went to court with my lawyer. He says that the judge has made his decision but hasn't wrote it down.  I've recieved a letter from our Congress saying that He knows it has been a long time but that the courts are backed up. I'm totally confused!!!

weeks, months, years, its the goverenment they do what they want when they want.


I've been working on this infinite sum and it's been giving me troubles. It's the sum from 1 to infinity of ln(n/(n+1)), where ln is the natural log function (inverse of exponential e).

If you write ln[n/(n+1)]=ln n -ln(n+1), you can find the nth partial sum by writing it out and cancelling *a lot*. What is left over will be ln(1)-ln(n+1). As n->infty, this diverges,\nso the original sum diverges.

Similar to the question that builds so much interests as well, "Are we living in a computer simulation?"\n\n"Uncertainty is the characterization of the relative narrowness or broadness of the distribution function applied to a physical observation."\n\nSo you tell me, are you living in the real world?

Yes, but looking at some of the other questions, I think the "real" and "computer simulation" worlds exist side by side and there are fewer in the real world than you may think ...


I haven't worked with this in a long time and I'm not sure this will work, but try starting w/ this:\n1) Define an equation that describes the " ∞ " with polar coordinates (something like r = C1 - C2*theta);\n2) If L is lengh, delta.L = delta.theta / (2 pi) * r\nand dL = r/(2 pi) dtheta  ;\n3) substitute for r and integrate from 0 to 2pi (or the necessary for one complete " ∞ ".\n \nProbably you'll find more than one mistakes here, but I think the general idea is correct.


I'm assuming its an anemone of course. The species of Staghorn is Acropora cervicornis.

I think you have answered your own question.


We have been married for 13 years. I have suffered from depression. We both have medical help for our illness. What really would be helpful from a spouse when you suffer anixety?

I have anxiety and my husband doesn't suffer from anything...You have a head start...depression is somewhat like anxiety. If she is a girly-girl (like me), give her a good amount of affection, all the while telling and re-telling her that you love her. Sometimes, if my husband's voice is very calm and loving, it will calm me down. She just needs to know that you are there for her. And don't do like my husband and think it's funny for her to freak out so you egg it on. Simply telling her everything is going to be okay...isn't enough. If she starts freaking out too much, just hold her...that's a soothing thing to do. It has been proven to relieve stress. I hope this helps.


all what i want is to tell him how i feel about him he always look at me and give me a nice look at my face but he willn't say anything what can i do

when he is ready he will tell you how he feels. some men do find it difficult to express their emotions. just give it some time. try writing to him about how you feel and he might feel more comfortable expressing his feelings through writing.

ATP can be labeled with a 32 p isotope at any 3 of its phosphate groups. If a prokaryotic cell carrying out transcription is incubated with labeled atp. Where wil lthe radioactive isotope appear in RNA if the atp is labeled at the alpha, beta and gamma positions

the ribonucleic acids need to be labeled at the alpha position for incorporation.  Basically, the ribonucleotides are triphosphate, like ATP.  The first two phosphates are removed during transcription to provide energy.  So labeling at the gamma position is useless.  Gamma ATP is used for kinase reactions with proteins.  Alpha ATP is used for looking at nucleic acid.  DNA and RNA have the same mechanism, the first two phoshates are lost and the alpha phosphate is retained.


I left him almost a year ago, but it just became formalized yesterday. He seemed fine. Now several people have told me he's been crying at work, etc., and he's come over here twice today. I don't mean to seem coldhearted, but I just don't feel the same way he does. It's very awkward. What is my role (if any) in this situation?

It is so odd to see how easily dysfunctional behavior and lack of conjugal dialogue can eventually lead to divorce procedures, yet only the very act of divorce itself can hammer home the agonizing emotional consequences!   Sort of like, it's all a GAME up until the moment that you actually have to sign the divorce papers.   Then it hits people like a ton of bricks - OMG what the heck have I done!   Many times a divorce is an utter letdown, and people cry, not because they lost a loving partner, but because they think they are a failure (i.e. they are besieged by a bruised ego and feeling of self-pity).   Perhaps, if they weren't in it with their huge egos to begin with, minor incompatibilities would not have culminated in a divorce.     In all, I agree with other people’s observations here, the time for simple reconciliation and baby-sitting of ephemeral sentiments has long passed.    Now is the time for individual reflections and healing – a time to move on and look to an emotionally less-codependent and otherwise healthier future.    Your ex should learn to seek psychological comfort in his own strength of character as opposed to compromising you even further by trying to find refuge in your recovering emotional state.       I’m assuming that you are not a trained mental health professional (e.g. a psychiatrist, a psychoanalyst, etc.) but even if you were you are simply too personally involved in this case to maintain your objectivity in helping your ex.    What you could do, however, in case he is suffering from anything more serious than a simple case of the “blues” is to suggest that he seeks professional help.     As it is, no doubt, you yourself have a lot of healing to as well.     Think positive, keep busy, mediate about what got you here and where you wanna go, and map out an attainable future goal in as much detail as you possibly can – then go for it and NEVER look back again.   Remember, future is the only thing that you might be able to influence and shape into your own design.     Good Luck!


Do you believe pERS and other defined-benefit retirement systems for public eployees are in need of any significant changes?  What are your views on a defined-benefit versus a defined=contribution retirement plan for public employees?

PERS is a working system and one of very few with sufficient funds available.\n\nIt ain't broke, so we better get in there and fix it til it is.\n\nEvery time we get a spender in the Governor's office, they take one look at that big pot of money, begin to salivate, and spend the rest of their term trying to figure out some way to get their hands on it.  Alaska has a thing they call the permanent fund.  It too is a large pot of money whose interest is used to provide Alaskans with an annual check.  The fund was derived from taxes generated during the building of the Alaska pipe line.  Their Governor makes a run at that pot about once a decade.  All we have to do is go to sleep for 30 seconds and one of these bozos will rape these reserves and the state will have the same problem the feds have with social security.


Whenever I ask her to wear a particular dress, she wears it, Whatever nail colour I ask her to wear, she obliges. I told her that I like her hair let loose, she does it.\nShe has never expressed her love even after a year.\nDoes she love me?

maybe she is just afraid of the whipping you'll give her for not wearing that certain outfit...you sound a bit too controlling to me.  stop telling her every little thing to do (seriously, the color of her nail polish?) and give her free reign on herself.  then maybe you'll find out if she loves you or is scared of you.


i found out that the guy im seeing is separated (read still married) but he wasnt the one who told me.  when confronted he said he wanted to tell me but the longer he left it the harder it became.  i felt lied to and hurt, do i believe him when he says he wants to marry me and that he loves only me or is it just another one of his 'she doenst really need to know whats going on' theories?

put yourself in his shoes. if i were him and i really cared for someone i probably wouldnt tell them right away either. he peobably wanted you to get to know him for him and not have that thing in the back of your head that kept telling you that he was married. i think that you should believe him.


hello..\nhow to remember all my lesson other than doing a lot of exercises & taking extra classes? after about 3 months, i will forget the subjects i learned.. end of this year i will take a big examination.. i need to remember the subjects after i learned in two years that contained english, mathematic, biology, physics, chemistry, additional mathematic & history.. please help me..!!

I do something I call indexing to remember.  Write down the highlights of what I learned for each subject in a notebook, along with the corresponding page in my notes.  Every month or two I go through the book to look at old topics and what i feel i dont remember I look up really quickly, since I learned it once it comes back very fast.  Works wonderfully. It's always worth a try if your organized enough to do it.

So far I have -\n\non (release) {getURL();\n\n}\n\ni know something must go in the () on getURL but i don't know how to communicate that simple html to actionscript.\n\nsay i wanted to link the flash button to yahoo.com, it'd be -\n\non (release) {getURL(http://www.yahoo.com);\n\n}\n\nso after all this babbling, i suppose my question is how do i tell actionscript what frame i want the URL to load in?

on (release) {\n   getURL("http://www.yahoo.com", "mainwindow");\n}\n\nor\n\non (release) {\n   getURL("http://www.yahoo.com", "_blank");\n}\n\nbasically, you enter a second parameter with the frame name.  Use _blank to specify a new blank window.

I have a great job an apartment, but I also love to party, and thats all he likes to do, so after a night of partying, i go to work and he sleeps all day, i even have to pay for his beers.  i consider myself an attrative women, and people tell me he's really ugly, so why cant i kick him to the curb.

I'd give him an ultimatum, say one month, to change his ways. Tell him if he hasn't found a job in that time, you will leave him. And if he hasn't, do it.


do you know who they are? list some of their accomplishments.

Michaelia Dortfmeister (Austria) is a double Olympic gold medallist in Skiing and Daron Rahlves (USA) is an Olympic gold medallist also in Skiing


Pupil dilation is a good example.  The pupil constricts, but the muscle that constricts it doesn't "move" any part of the body.


Planning a bar olympics tournement. We are playing Pool, Darts, and Foosball. Will be winning points for each game won, then adding all points to find the winning team.

Easiest way is to do pool play for each activity. When each team is seeded and the tournament for that activity is over, award points for the place they came in. For example, first place wins 10 points, 2nd earns 9 pts., 8th earns 8 pts and so on. Then you total the points in each category (pool, Darts, foosball)., and the team with the most points wins the tournament.


I have a boyfriend and i love him so much. I want to make our relationship last but im just a neophyte. Please extend some help..thanks!

I would think one of the key things you can do is to make sure you have a significant relationship outside of the bedroom.  There's nothing with safely enjoying intercourse with the one you love, but anything in excess is dangerous.  When most all speech/conversation is just a prelude to sex, the relationship might be in trouble.  \n\nYes it may be difficult, but if you really want this to last you'll put the work in to making those communication efforts and restraining yourself.  But it will take work.


I've been slowly studying it for a long period of time, picking up pieces here and there.  I can't give you a complete account, but I can give you a rundown:\n\nThe vessel that God used to initiate this "movement" was John Wesley.  His brother and helper was Charles Wesley, the famous hymn writer.  \n\nEngland at this time had come past the Reformation...not very changed, because of all the politics involved (such as King Henry VIII dabbling into making his own "Anglican" church).  With a few exceptions (such as John Knox) the Reformation in England had man's handprints all over it...\n\nThus, God's spirit was hindered from moving and the moral atmosphere was poor both inside and outside the Church.  \n\nGod used John Wesley to preach "holiness" to his listeners and had a "method" for seeking God.  This was not a Martin Luther "We are justified by faith" movement (which I also believe God initiated), but a "We need to clean up our act" movement.  \n\nIronically, while Wesley was intensely protestant, some saw him as a traitor trying to bring back the law, tradition and rituality of the catholic church.  Wesley did not bring in dead ritual and men's traditions; He sought God's will with a fury on moral issues and preached his findings to his adherents.  Also note that on certain issues he was incredibly liberal compared to his times:  when pastors wouldn't let him preach in their buildings, he simply preached in fields!  This was NOT conventional.\n\nMany in England were violently opposed to these new religious fanatics called "Methodists" because things changed wherever they went...  If you hired a Methodist housemaid, you'd risk loosing members of your family and others to their energetic proselyting and you would feel convicted for your actions!  God forbid...\n\nThus is a very rough and superficial layout.  Hope it helped!  Any questions, just e-mail me.\n\nKeep in mind that when these movements took place, they had God pushing them forward and were not the dry lifeless denominations you see today; e.g. Lutheran, Methodist, etc.  Perhaps we (the Christian church as a whole) should seek God for what His "movement" would be in *this* hour instead of becoming stale by having our worship revolve around past movements...  :)

well my opinion would be to make your own. find an image on google that you like, i dont know what you are looking for. and then right click it and save the picture. then go to photobucket.com and upload the image there then go to http://www.mygen.co.uk/ and when it asks for a picture url, go to photobucket and copy the URL box right under the picture. and create a layout. my suggestion is that you find an image that would look good tiled OR find an image that would look good centered/ full screened. customized all you want!


There are some who have suggested that polygamy was not common among the Israelites. If thats true why are so many of his prophets polygamous? Why not select from all those monogamous fellows?

God prefers people to keep his commandments.

As a longstanding customer of 50megs.com I relatively recently informed them of the fact that they had apparently over-charged me by over $70...no response...will they give me back the money I am entitled to - refunding me. What's the consensus on this tale of woe. Happy ending or cry?

Big Bang therory vserse little Bangs theory

I think that the big bang theory is flawed. It was theorized and believed by humans who just refuse to fathom infinity. Its based on the premise that everything has a beginning and an end. Greater enlightenment points to every ending is a new beginning. I think you're right, the little bangs theory makes more sense. And I will take it one step further, that these little bangs are the other black holes (assuming there are two kinds) where matter comes from another place not in this universe, a negative image of this universe. And everything in this universe is headed towards one of these (as yet undiscovered) black holes to be pushed out (bang) into the alter universe.


i HAVE TROBLE REMBER SPELLING PLEASE HELP

I hope your teacher is having you write them down and use them in a sentence. If not, that's a good way. Also say them outloud as you write them. Look for the words in your real life and use them. Talk to teachers and adult friends about the meaning of the words you're learning. \n\nI am a long way from school and I still struggle with spelling. I sound out words like "answer" and "wednesday" pronouncing in my head each letter. \n\nTry to think up your own, creative, ways of learning the spelling. \n\nKeep at it.


In the morning when my father would wake us kids up, he would come into the room and say "up and adam" of course I knew he meant get up and vigorously face the day, and get dressed.  But, recently, I have been trying to figure out just what the heck he was saying.

I think the expression is "up and at them". At least, that's what I've always heard. I can see where if you are just waking up it would sound a bit different.


Ive thought about Racism, and I cant forget it because someone throws it in my face everday. Does it ever stop? Its driving me crazy and making me bitter. I live in a small town with no diversity, but Im of color and Im starting to think these views of these people I lve around are more common in other areas then I thought.

I disagree with the person that said move to Europe, I mean racism is everywhere no matter what country no matter what ethnicity. Yes us black folks get it thrown in our face everyday but F*** em' life goes on you know, "what they eat don't make us sh**. like jay z said, ain't no love in the heart of the city, ain't no love in the heart of town"  Did you know in the history of television, in europe 2 weeks ago, a news station hired a black broadcaster. Now how long has the tv been around. We may have a few more oppurtinities, but not much. Just do what we all do, keep ya head up and try to maintain, Like Donny Hathaway says " Take it from me someday we'll ALL be FREE!"

DOes anyone want to buy my horror/comedy screen play?

You can make some research on the legend in Mexico.\n\nWe do have stories of "duendes" who are like little babies with big tooth, and the real scary factor of this, is that you can guess it's a little baby in a cradle, and only at the moment you get very close they shows their teeth. \nThey are playful like little kids, and hide thinks at your home, change the babies from the place you let him, things like that.\n\nI'll send you some legends i found at the web, but it's in spanish. If i find something in english i'll add the link.\n\nhttp://www.sanluisdelapaz.com/cmsystem/index.php?categoryid=6

i really need to know about what they would eat live what they used in their daily life what they did for fun

I don't know about bishops in particular but I do know that nuns at one time acted as a harem for the monks. It was a way to keep the monks from straying out into the outside world and commiting sins in the public. It's true, I swear.


I often wonder who? Please note: It's a serious question. No pun intended.

according to bio books, i think it's actually young men and older women.


they believe their is no God, so are they believers that their is no God.\n\nDoes that make them believers of something?

An Atheist is a believer.  However, they do not believe in the correct religion.


Last week I was accepted to a college that I have wanted to attend and my mother responded by saying that she thinks someone either helped me get in and that I don't deserve to get in. This REALLY hurt my feelings and now she will not apologize. What is so difficult about saying sorry to me? That was a horrible thing for a mother to say. :(

my dear . . . I am soooo sorry.\n\nYour mother is being a jealous . . . possessive b****.\n\nMost parents want their children to succeed . . . but there are a rare few . . . that will try to hold their children back because they don't want them to do better than they have.\n\nWhat is your plan regarding college . . . will you be moving into a dorm.  Probably getting a part time job . . . did you get a scholarship?  The best thing for you . . . is to get out of that negative environment.  I know it is scary . . . but you can do it . . . and you should do it.\n\nIf you are unable to move out . . . just reply back to her . . . just because I am trying to do something better in my life . . . which you could not do yourself. . . either . . . encourage me or butt out . . . because I won't quit and I don't want to be a loser like you.\n\nWell maybe not in those exact words.  But I think you get my meaning.\n\nTake care of yourself.


I need to review for differential calculus thats why i need problems... 10 POINTS for the BEST PROBLEM!! And another thing, just post the problem and the answer but no solution \n\n^^


Always had negative attitude about everything.  Never had any confidence in myself.  Always an abundance of low self esteem.  Let's face it, I HATE ME & ALWAYS HAVE. Can't seem to lose weight.  Can't afford the exercise places, let alone find the desire for myself. Only thing I do well is EAT.  I'm almost 60 and feel it's too late for me now. This is my life.

I am truly sorry to hear that you are having such a difficult time with yourself and your own personal perception of who you really are.  Your own life, as well as life in general, is all in how you choose to look at it.  You can soon convince yourself, as well as everyone else around you, that things are truly awful, if you only choose to look for the negative in everything.  There is plenty of good in people, and the world, if people would only take the time and make the effort to find it.  \n\nUnfortunately in our culture, it seems that the negative always does overshadow the good,  However, this is only due to  the media ideology that shock sells.  And it also seems that people do tend to remember the negative far more than than bad, only because it tends to be so "shocking", and literally burns itself into our memories.  Although, in the long run, good never truly prevails over bad, and there would be no good without bad.  It's all part of the eternal circle of life.  \n\nYes, people can be cruel, especially children, and cause you low self-esteem issues from the time you are a child.  Also parents who have unrealistic expectations of their children, and/or those who wish them to exceed highly in life, where they themselves failed.  This can put a great deal of pressure on a child, both mentally and physically, and unfortunately carry over to their adulthood, and even their own children.  The media again has also created false images of what the so-called "perfect" self-image is, especially for females, making a great deal of perfectly normal women suddenly feel inferior, or somehow less than normal.  This is a very dangerous trend that we as a society have created for ourselves and our children.  People should honestly feel better about themselves as a whole, and realize that everyone has something to offer and contribute to this society.\n\nLife is a gift, and should be treated as such.  Way too many people take this miracle for granted, and don't truly appreciate what they have, while they have it.  You only get one shot at this life, so please don't screw it up.  As long as you are alive and willing, there is always hope.  You simply have to change your mind, and change your life.  It's only your own mindset that is holding you back and making you feel unwanted, especially by yourself.  The eating is unfortunately only a comfort coping mechanism for depression.  People eat because the food supposedly makes them feel better and also is always there for them, and never says no to them.  When you eat in excess, you are simply feeding a sickness, not yourself.  Please understand this.\n\nI would strongly recommend that you, at a very minimum, start practicing portion control, eat smaller meals throughout the day instead of three big ones, and also at least start walking.  Money should not be an object to your health.  If you are on a budget, then get exercise tapes (low impact to start - maybe Tai Bo), and maybe even have a friend join you for inspiration.  \n\nYou can also make healthier choices in what you eat, if you can't seem to cut back on eating itself.  Just also remember that any activity and/or exercise, is better than sitting idle and doing nothing.  Start feeling better inside, then the outside will soon follow quickly behind!\n\nIf all else fails, and you still cannot seem to get the motivation to help yourself, then please find someone else that you can meet with, to talk to, who can help you.  There are lots of free services for people to obtain counseling for various issues.  Do NOT be ashamed to talk about your problems.  The only real shame is to know that you did absolutely nothing, when you had every chance available to actually do so.\n\nI wish you the best of luck in your endeavors and hope that I have been able to help you, if even in the slightest.


i'm a goalie and when i try to make that "v" there's a big opening up top cause my pads are not all of the way flushed to the ice. any help please, is it how tight my straps are thanks in advance. you da bomb

the butterfly!\n\nit takes alot of streching and hard work...\nwhat you want 2 do is put on your hockey pants, skates, and your goalie pads in your house{like in your living room} strech out every part of your legs, do your butterfly and try to get {from toe to toe} as atright as a bord...bring your legs together closing the five hole...but it dosen't have to be all tight & locked up\nwhen your on the ice rember to use your stick. your stick and both of your arms should remain in the same spot at all times as you are droping into your butterfly. you will need to pratice staying in your butterfly for at least ten mins at a time then when you are on the ice your mussles will have "Mussle Memory" and will be relaxed. when going into your butterfly make your pads 'slam' on to the ice...the butterfly is hard to perfect but is do able and will be very useful if done correctly!


I am not what you would call the active type.  Today I didn't do anything out of the normal (go to work sit for twelve hours and come home and sleep) I have a sharp constant pain that is on my right leg.  It starts mid shin on the right side and works its way down to my ankle.  The pain is more intense there, even when I sit still with no wieght put on it.  Anyone have any idea what this is?  Further more, I am 24, 5'5" and 158 lbs.  I've read anything from shin splints to tendonitis.

It could be a blood clot in your leg. Or just a reduction in blood flow so your nerves are being put into "shock" and you get the tingling feeling. But from what you have said I would highly recommend getting that looked at by your doctor.


Did you all know that Ricardo stands for Ricky?\nSo that actually means that Ricky Ricardo is Ricky Ricky or Ricardo Ricardo.  Why would they do that, did they stutter?

More thought-provoking questions, I see.  Bravo!  Actually, I seem to recall an episode of I Love Lucy where Ricky was speaking Spanish on the phone to someone and he gave his full name as something like Ricardo Alberto Ricardo y de Hacha.  The "y de Hacha" part is his second last name, which all Hispanics have but do not use in this country. So, it would seem that his name really is Ricardo Ricardo and I would guess he uses Ricky Ricardo as his professional or stage name.  Good question - really made me think.


Please explain why is beneficial for yourself.

I like it on the top.  Everything else has pull down menus on the top, why have the bar on the bottom?


Here is the list, in case you need the numbers. \n\n1. Gedeon                 1-866-436-5701\n\n2. Chris                  1-866-436-5702\n\n3. Kevin                  1-866-436-5703\n\n4. Bucky                  1-866-436-5704 \n\n5. Will                   1-866-436-5705\n\n6. Taylor                 1-866-436-5706\n\n7. Elliott                1-866-436-5707\n\n8. Ace                    1-866-436-5708\n\nMy opinion, I think Kevin may have done his last performance tonight. Will's performance didn't leave a lasting impression on me either, and I think he will be joining Kevin. Bucky surprised me, he sang Wave on Wave perfect! Funny, there are 2 of them!!  That's not to say I've thought he was ever bad, but he did great tonight. As always, Chris brought it again! What can I say about Ace and Taylor! Taylor, very awesome and unique! Ace is so sensual!! The three (Chris, Ace, and Taylor are my picks!) Gedeon and Elliot are solid, too.

Easily the best male voice in the competition is Elliott. He's in a league all of his own. But we all know it's not just the voice that puts you through to the finals. \nAce, Chris, and Taylor also have a strong following. \n\nThe guys who should be going home tomorrow night are Will Makar and Kevin Corvais; however, they both have quite the following so Gedeon or Bucky could be in there as well. \n\nbtw - www.votefortheworst.com has Kellie and Kevin as their front runners for this season. So those two may be around for a while.


I still love you all no matter what you say. MMuuuaahhh. XOXOXOXO.\nSo get over it people.

Hi,\n\nI think your questions are usually EXCELLENT!!\n\nDon't worry about what people think, Have Fun!!\n\nTake Care!!

yes there is.. if you haven't formated your computer... first try to clean the hard drive that was infected.. second you will need an extra hard drive for your new primary boot..  install the old hard drive as secondary..\nwhen you install it make sure your old hard drive jumper is correct.. when successfully installed boot your windows.. on my click my computer and there should be "drive C" & "Drive D" on the "D" drive all your files will still be there... \n\n\nBut if you can't do that... i think there is a software that can recover it.. just make sure you back up the file and clean your computer look for the software at the link bellow


How would a child be best brought up? When I think of strict discipline, he becomes the best citizen, lacking emotions. When I think of raising him up with love and care, he becomes atmost an average citizen, lacking discipline and principles. The biggest problem is that, you cannot optimize and use both. I have seen parents getting confused of, when, how and why to react producing a confused grown up, trying to use both of them. And also how to shield them from being spammed by others? Also, how to preserve the family tradition and culture? Only those who feel the graveness and feel concerned should answer.

If you use both in a wobble way, that will really confuse them. Many parents don't react in a same way to the same things, but just according to their actual turn of mind  and that's what makes children very confused. Prove that you love them and will always love them, ALTHOUGH you ask for some discipline in some situations. For example: "If you want to go to a football match tomorrow with me (LOVE), you have to finish your homework on time (DISCIPLINE)". Say it in an assertive way and be rigorous. make him/her learn about the consequences of his/her behavior. But, KEEP YOUR PROMISES, DON'T DISAPPOINT HIM/HER and make him/her believe you.


I have a soldier who seems to have earned a degree very quickly.  I remember a few years back there was scandal involvig online universities.  If you can buy it from where?  The soldier in question is on leave for the next 21 days.  When he gets back I want to talk to him about it.  I need the name of colleges and universities that do it?

No accredited university sells their degrees. What you need to watch out with these face diplomas is that some companies not only provide the paper, they even have a telephone service that will pose as the university registrar and claim the degree to be valid. If the soldier offers to give you the number to call to verify is degree, don't accept it- or better yet.. DO take the number, then go and look the phone number up yourself. If it's a different number, there's your first sign. Chances are if it is a different number, then when you call the number you found, you'll see that it is indeed fake.


Susceptibility tets using the filter paper disc technique

well, if an antiseptic effects peptidoglycan (as many antibiotics do), then it will likely work better on gram-positive bacteria than gram-negative. Unless, of course, it is a strain with extensive exposure to the antibiotic, or is naturally competent and has been exposed to bacteria with resistance genes. Or it has been exposed to an R-plasmid...\n\nBasically, there isn't any particular correlation. It depends on the history of the strain, what bacteria it is, and how the antiseptic you use works.


i was trying to kiss my bf as he was flipping through the channels on tv but he turned to a show with a bunch of girls in bikinis and he wouldnt kiss me.  was he trying to make me jealous?  i was onyl mad cuz he wasnt paying attention to me and he woudl rather look at them.  he understood why i was mad cuz i told him "if i turned to a show with a bunch of half-naked guys, you would be mad and say something about it too" and he agreed and ever since then he has been really nice to me.  so is he a perv?

Do you want a guy that isn't interested in looking at women? Where I come from they call those guys gay. He may be a bit inconsiderate at times, but he's not a perv.

i mean, i dont straighten my hair that oftern, but it goes static even if i haven't!

Well, lets de-electrify your locks. \nStart by using a clarifying shampoo once or twice a  month. The rest of the time use a moisturizing shampoo. Also, be sure to deep condition your hair once or twice a week as well. \nAnd, like the shampoo, use a conditioner or detangler on the other days. The more moisture your hair has, the less\nlikely it is to fly, but be sure not to over-condition, it will leave hair unmanageable. \n\nStyle your do as usual. \n\nIf you still end up with static, try using a detangler spray.


We have been having a problem with spirits in our house. Doors lock and unlock themselves. A cigarette butt turned around by itself on the ground. Impressions like someone was sitting on the bed. The latest and scariest thing happened last Friday when I was taking pictures w/ my mom's new digital camera. An apparation (or something) was caught by accident on camera. We are selling the bed on ebay-item #  9503589780 because we won't sleep in the bed anymore and want it out of the house. It was the 12th pic on a new camera and the camera wouldn't take anymore pics after the pic of the bedroom. I downloaded the camera to figure out the problem and to my surprise there was something laying on my bed in the pic.  That pic was distorted for whatever reason, but the image is clear. It's very scary. We've been praying, had a paranormal investigator come over last Saturday and a pastor come and pray for us and the house on Wed. I want to be sure this thing is gone!

Well, a10enya2006, I did suggest to list your eBay # for your bed and a picture so we could all check it out. If you are lucky you will have someone who knows who the ghost is and then maybe you will get bids as high as the 2 shirts from Brokeback Mountain did , that went for over 130,000.00. This way you will be able to allow the spirit his palace and then you can take the money and build a NEW house that no spirit will inhabit.Good Luck to you and I am headed to the eBay site now ! Gr. starting price ! This made the hair on my neck and arms stand up when I saw your pictures!

I race sprint cars and boyfriend thinks its hot...but I don't know what all(most) guys think so do you think it is hot for a girl to race or do you find it to be to much of a mans sport? ( just wondering) because I have been thinking about quiting because the guy that it seems be be that I always line up next to whisles every time I take my helmet off. and that gets really annoying after the first few times!

If you like to race, then RACE!!! Men do not decide what women can or cannot do! Girl get out there and show that little piece of crap what you are made of!


well im 17 and want a tatoo my parents say i can but i dont know how old you have to be

I'd think about it twice (at least) if I were you. Sure, you want it now, but in 10 years? It's not gonna look pretty, you'll quite possibly get tired of it, it's expensive to remove.. Besides; it's painful to get it done in the first place.

I thought if he was already charged  the court and police present their case and keep the victim out of it.

Unless you were notified you do not have to show up.  Once sharges have been filed it is out of your hands.  The state in which you live is the one pressing charges. So, unless your testimoney is crucial to their case you do not have to go.


i usually have yahoo as my default webpage but recently it changed to some strange webpage that i dont even know and it doesnt'matter how many time i changed it back to yahoo, the next time when i sign on my computer, there it goes again. what should i do now?????

Most likely you have an adware, or spyware or a virus.  You will need to have some anti-adware, or anti-spyware or anti-virus to clean it up.  No matter how many times you will change it, it will keep on coming back.\n\nYou can start with some free anti-adware programs such as AdAware.  Search on Yahoo for AdAware and you will be able to download it.\n\nHope this helps.

How important is more money in the big scheme of things? Should we really judge success by the size of the bank account?

the average american would think, "if i take 35K away from my current pay, i would be flat broke", so you obviously have a good paying job. however, if you are miserable it is not worth it. most happy people i have known, have very little money. when you have a lot of money, you always worry about what would happen if it went away.


Mean's you are there biggest fan which you are from the question's i have seen you ask.


It doesn't make sense! They lost 4 of the last 6.

Good question. I am sure there is something the guys who picked the tournament saw something in them, but i dont. they are overrated


for example, how do i feed the hungry (how do i find these places) i want to help people who need it, but i don't know how to go about doing this.  i'm trying more things like this, instead of joining another small group in the church. i feel like my heart (and time) is more with helping the poor, etc..

Actually, go volunteer in the public schools. Go to schools in low-income areas and devote your time. It makes a HUGE difference just by spending time with the kids. I do it, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love the kids, and they get something out of it. Many of them keep going to school when they get older because they had something to look forward to when they were younger. It keeps them off drugs and lets them know someone cares. That does a lot more than you would think.

my son has been in several prisons since being put in there 13 years ago.. i have lost contact with him..i last knew he was at southeastern correctional center in st. charles missouri.. his name is john wiggins #504405 and he use to write me or call me faithfully..i am disabled and have dementia ..i really need to get in contact with my son. i am very concerned about his well being, his last caseworker would not give him a message or would she tell me anything.. i have wrote but i have got no response.. this is not like him..i do know he was acting like he was getting mentally disfunctioned in there. dont they have to call his family.. please help me if you can. i have tried several sites on this computer but have gotten nowhere.i wish i knew of prison ministers that go visit that prison...

Call the faciity where you think he is.  They should be able to at least tell you if he is still there. Do you have any family? friends? neighbors? who may be able to assist you?  Are you able to call your local crisis line?  Your place of worship?  Local authorities?  Do you have anyone who attends you regularly?  In your condition, you need local resources!  If all else fails, call 911.


This is my homework: "The Ministry of Education is going to celebrate Teacher's day by honouring the teacher students like most. You have decided to nominate a teacher you like very much. Write a composition describing that teacher's qualities and how they relate to students. Be sure to include how he/she was different from another teachers as you have had." Help me please, I must go on regional competition and I have not mutch time.

How can we help you if we know nothing about the teacher?  Would it help you to know why I liked my favorites?  OK:\n\nI had a history teacher in junior high who had us act out little scenarios from history, to make the whole thing seem real.  That was very good.  One of my math teachers used to give use wonderful little math puzzles, including some that were extremely funny, like those based on the works of Lewis Carroll.  My favorite French teacher gave us little gifts for spelling bees, and I won a package of five tiny (sample size) bottles of real French perfume!  My Latin teacher had us reading the "naughty bits" in the old bawdy Latin plays, but that was in college, and we were all very mature.\n\nGenerally, the teachers who put some creativity into the classroom, and who draw creativity out of their students, get the best ratings and teach the most.  But the other thing is the teacher to expects a lot, but plays fair.  My sixth grade teacher gave us lots of homework, and graded exams very uncompromisingly.  But she always answered the questions we had, and never played favorites.  She just imperiously assumed we all had the ability to learn, and would not accept laziness.  The lazy students hated her, but the ones who wanted to learn, learned a lot.  She was also very systematic, did the same pattern of exercises every day, so we always knew what to expect.  We had ten questions on the blackboard to write down in our notebook to answer in history and social studies; we had 20 vocabulary words in spelling, ten sentences to diagram in English . . . does anybody diagram sentences anymore?  Sometimes a very old-fashioned teacher is the one from whom you learn the most.  (Not "the one you learn the most from," because a preposition is a bad thing to end a sentence with!)

basically anything about the delaware colony


I have plenty of money, so I don't really need to work.  I was doing some modeling and it was fun sometimes, but i hated when it interfered with my personal life and things i wanted to do.  Am I just spoiled because i don't need to work?  Am I missing out on the work aspect of life?

hell no, if i didnt have to work, i wouldnt either.


rad fan will not work on my grand am so it over heats\ncould this be the reason why its over heatin and also colloant is bollin over

You will need to get a DMM (digital multi meter)...Walmart has these pretty cheap.  \n\n1) Before doing anything else, check the fuses again.\n\n2) Unlug your fan from the harness it is comming from.  Put the DMM on continuity (ohms) or if it has the tone option, put it there.  Now put the 2 leads together (probe to probe). Take note of what the display says.  Now put one probe on one wire comming from the plug on the fan, and do the same with the other probe on the other pin. Your display should read the same (continuity) or beep.  If it does, your fan is good.\n\n3) Now put that DMM on DC voltage (12 volt range up to 25, depending on DMM).  Again, one lead on one wire, other lead to the other wire.  Start your car, and turn on your a/c (this activates the fan circuit regardless of temperature).  If you get power, you know your relay is fine.  Now turn off your a/c and let the engine heat up to normal.  If your power does not come back, you have a temperature switch gone bad.  If it does, you have a problem with the fan (which you should have found in the last step).\n\nHope this helps!


everybody was saying that they was giving me money and they didn't.

First of all, "Happy Birthday to you. Happy birhtday to you. Happy birthday dear Jaime. Happy Birthday to you!"  Second, you go out and enjoy your birthday. Have a wonderful day. :-) :-*

What is the diffenance.Don't they both believe in Jesus.Thanks any info would be highly respectful and greatful.Thanks and have A nice Day(or Night).

It's a fundamental difference in how the religions are practiced.  For example:  Confession, birth control, and the guy with the funny hat.


It had a knob on at the top of the beak like a muted swan that was orange yellowish in the center and black around the outside the rest of the bill was black.  Orange feet.  Couldnt find it in Peterson guide. Hmmm

It must have been a migrating tundra or whistling swan-they have black beaks and brown/yellow from about the middle of the neck up, and a yellow spot just below the eye.


it probably could..... follows the 3 year rule...(no more than a 3 year age difference)


Dead like me was a tv series on showtime. I loved it, but I want to know if there was a season 3? Thanks...:-)

I am sorry to report that Dead like me was canceled in 2004.  There are only 2 seasons.


im seeing that most coverages are usesles if you need medication at this level, what do you do just lay down and die?

Pegasys (Roche Laboratories) will help you, if you do not have any insurance. Go to Pegasys.com and ask. If you ask, you will receive help!! There is no reason to just lay down and die!! Hepatitis C is an awful virus: I have it myself. It also sounds as if you might be depressed; see any health professional.


I'm going on holiday in the summer and I know that the time is now to start toning up my problem areas so that I look good in that little red bikini I'm currently eyeing up. My problem areas are my thighs and stomach. I'm not fat, I just want to lose some puppy fat is all. What type of excercises can I try out to help speed this process? And also what foods can I eat?

There is no way to "spot reduce"---that is, you cannot just lose fat in certain areas that you wish to tone up. The only way to lose fat is to do cardio (treadmill, bike, dancing, etc.) The best of both worlds is to do cardio and do resistance training, such as sit-ups or crunches for your abs, leg press for tightening the legs and butt, leg extensions, calf raises, etc.....\n\nit all depends on how dedicated you are to the gym, but for a rough estimation, i will gear a workout around an hour's time.\n\nTry to do your ab workouts concentrating each area of the abdominal. Do crunches for the upper abs, try to do leg lifts and scissor kicks for lower abs (lie on your back, hands under the butt or on the sides, lean your head up a little bit and keep your legs straight out with no bend in the knees and lift your legs up about 6 inches and hold them. make sure you alternate left leg and right leg, dont lift them both up simultaneously. the scissor kicks are the same method except bring both legs up together about 6 inches, and then separate your legs to the sides. bring them back together and repeat. \n\ndo these exercises, along with other exercises that you wish to tone up with, and then do cardio.\n\nits not good to hope on a treadmill and run as fast as you can for a mile and then quit. it is MUCH better to do a lower intensity on a treadmill (try to do a nice steady jogging pace) for at least 20 minutes. The treadmill will help burn fat better than anything else, and it will also tone up your legs in the process. the key for any cardio workout is to keep your heart rate high for an extended period of time. the equation 220 minus your age is an indicator of maximal heart rate. I'd try to keep the cardio workouts at around 60% of your maximal heart rate for at least 20 minutes. This will burn fat and get you in shape.\n\nAs far as eating, there are so many different diets and most of them are unsuccessful. The "fad" diets i would completely not even try (atkins, south beach, etc.)--they are not meant to last and are not practical. If i were you, i'd do something basic, because working out 4-5x a week doing exercises listed above will get you in shape. But as far as diet is concerned, try to just avoid certain foods that you know will harm your chances of losing weight, such as soda, cake, cookies, and everything else "junk food." \n\njust take a peek at the nutrition facts and try to avoid foods with high saturated fats and trans fats, and try to eat low carb foods at night. if you are one of those people that needs to eat at night, try to eat something healthy at night as a snack, such as salad, fruit, etc. \n\nthis is the basics...there is so much more detail i could go into, but you can basically get a good jump start on your diet and exercise routine!\n\nhope this helps!


The answer to this question requires a complex answer... please bear with me.\n\nChristianity occurred in a time of religious upheaval.  During the "time of Christ", fake messiahs were popping up all over.  Jesus preached initially to just the Hebrews.  It wasn't until Saul/Paul that the "message" came to spread the word to all people.  This open-message to everyone, regardless of race, made christianity one of the first religions that anyone could join.  This made it very popular initially.\n\nWhen the Emperor Constantine needed something to bond the people of the Roman Empire together under a common system, he chose christianity.  Anyone and everyone could join.  Thus, the Holy Roman Empire was born.\n\nAfter the fall of the Roman Empire, the Catholic Church controlled vast tracts of land and was the seat of most knowledge.  This made it a powerhouse and enabled it to continue its popularity.\n\nWhy is christianity still so popular?  Same reasons as before.  It is open to anyone and everyone.  Also, it employs standard brainwashing/cult tactics very effectively.  \n\nIt teaches you that everyone (especially yourself) will lead a better life if you proclaim "the good word".  It teaches you that if you proclaim loudly, people will respect you and god will love you.  Finally, it teaches you to never question your beliefs.  If you keep thinking, "this is for the better", without ever questioning why or how... you will probably never think to deconvert.  Like I said, most cults utilize a very similar system.


What do they have that makes men want them?

Perhaps it's the idea of submissiveness, the stereotype of sweet and young Asian girls with "unique" looks.  I don't know perhaps I myself am stereotyping...but then again I am an Asian girl.  \n\nThere's always the notion that Asian girls in turn would want to marry a foreigner.


is there a web site that is free with step by step instructions that i can go on and print a c.v out free

Yes there are many website with free CV samples - just type 'cv samples' into your search engine and you'll find many to choose from. Good luck.


Which do you think makes for better basketball.  The NBA style where traveling, jump steps, and palming of the ball are allowed.  Pros: more scoring, fan excitement.  2. The International rules where it requires more basketball skills to score.  Pros: fundamentals and skills, physical players need real basketball skills to compete, closer three point line.

I like the international style better.  Like you said, it requires fundamentals and skills.  Frankly it's why I like the women's game too.


The video and transcripts show federal and local officials discussed threats clearly and understood Katrina would wreak devastation of historic proportions. Bush declared four days after the storm, "I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees" that gushed deadly flood waters into New Orleans. He later clarified, saying officials believed, wrongly, after the storm passed that the levees had survived. But the transcripts and video show there was plenty of talk about that possibility even before the storm. - from Yahoo!News\nI would like to know your opinion.

BAD TIDINGS LIBERAL PUKES: Fox just released a VIDEO OF DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR BLANCO TELLING FEMA/OFFICIALS THAT THE LEVEES HAD *NOT* - REPEAT *NOT* - BEEN BREACHED.\n\nNow you can go ahead and IGNORE this post or just pull it off the board quickly - but DON'T YOU ALL REALLY JUST FEEL STUPID AS HELL???\n\nBTW... I think BUSH is a TOTAL MORON - but he's still SMARTER than YOU BUNCH of "INTELLIGENCIA."\n\n********************\nstellry: By all means let me answer your question. I honestly DO believe that Bush is an IDIOT who has surrounded himself by IDIOTS. HOWEVER, I'm 56 years old, former 101st Airborne, 100% disabled Vietnam vet and a newspaper writer that spends probably three hours minimum easily EVERY day going through different sites and news services trying to compare sources and ferret out the TRUTH behind stories.\n\nNow look at the vast majority of respondents here. They TOTALLY IGNORE FACTS (Like the Blanco tape) and CHANT LIBERAL ZOMBIE-LIKE MANTRAS INSTEAD. The *TRUTH* means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to THEM. There's no sense of balance. There's no QUESTIONING the PARTY LINE. There's only LEMMING-LIKE CONFORMITY and the commonality that virtually NONE of THEM have PAID THEIR DUES in EXPERIENCE, RESEARCH NOR COMMON SENSE. \n\nIn short, they have been spoon fed PROPAGANDA by public schools and colleges to the point where they are as rabidly endoctrinated as the Hitler Youth. They are OBLIVIOUS to REALITY. When confronted with TRUTH and REALITY, they simply IGNORE IT.\n\nNow, are YOU AWARE that FEMA and the FEDS *CANNOT* ENTER A STATE UNTIL THE GOVERNOR *REQUESTS* THEM TO DO SO?\n\nIf so, WHAT does it MEAN when Governor Blanco was NOT REQUESTING FEMA ASSISTANCE and TELLING EVERYONE (ON CAMERA) that THE LEVEES were INTACT after the hurricane came ashore?\n\nI've answered YOUR question - now can you answer mine?\n*************\n\n3-4\nYou appear open minded and I'm appreciative. Honesty is the only way we come together to identify and solve problems.\n\nWhat I have asked of you is WHERE is your INDICTMENT of Governor Blanco and Mayor Nagin? However guilty/incompetent/complicit Bush and his adminstration may be - both Blanco and Nagin were *EVEN MORESO*. So how can you bypass the *CAUSE* while only blaming the *EFFECT*?\n\nDon't misunderstand me. I think that FEMA and the Feds are criminally incompetent - but they COULD NOT ACT without BLANCO's REQUEST which she herself delayed because she believed the levees had held. Blanco is EVERY BIT as INCOMPETENT, DISHONEST and WORTHLESS as FEMA - and probably MORESO. So why wouldn't/shouldn't your question be:\n\n"GOVERNOR BLANCO knew what Katrina would be like and yet did nothing to help people and waited too late to request FEMA help. She even lied she didn't know about it." (?)\n\nFair enough?\n\n**************************\nBRAVO!!! THAT is *EXACTLY* what I was HOPING you would say!\n\nWhen TRUTH WINS, we ALL WIN.\n\nThank you for restoring some semblance of my faith in humanity.


I don't seem to have any hobbies or find anything that I really want to do anymore.  I just seem to float, laugh and feel disconnected from society.\nHow can I find inner happiness and joy (else where can I pick up a loyal cuddly woman)?


whats the best way to get rid of a soar throat????

Best way is to get some soluble paracetamol (tylenol if you're in the USA) or aspirin and dissolve it in water as hot as you can stand. Gargle with it, then swallow it. Take regular ibuprofen as well (it's fine to take paracetamol or aspirin and ibuprofen at the same time, they work in totally different ways).

We are friends but I want to become closer with her than what we are now. We talk but its hard for me to start a conversation. Please help

its like that with me too. i mean I'm really shy and i can't start up a conversation very well.


no spam please but send me only 5 answers.

Consider the five basic machines, The lever and fulcrum, The inclined plain, The wheel and axle, The screw and the pulley.\n\nStart with a boyscout pine block racer kit, sand the wheels so that the tread is rounded rather than flat to reduce friction. for the undriven wheels put the nails in the wheels and deposit a liberal amount of petroleum based oil on the axle. This will cause the plastic to swell slightly for a good fit to the axles to prevent wobble, be sure to clean all the flash off of the nails first and polish them.\n\nThe driven wheels willneed a fixed axle that connects the wheels.


I sent in my 1040A and lost my state W2 forms!  I need the information from the W2's to file my state taxes.  If I request a copy of the transcripts from IRS, will it have all the information from the W2's I sent?

I believe you have to get your W2 information from your employer you only get Tax forms from the IRS.

what is the law regarding people who threaten you?

technically it's only a crime if they threaten death. at least in california. threat of death is called terrorist threat. threats of other violence is cause for a restraining order but not grounds for an arrest.


I've heard many times that they are not, but I cannot find anywhere relevant that says specifically that an Internet petition is invalid. Where would I find the legislation that says petitions must be on paper and not digital?

They are valid in that they are real and sincere, but they are silly in that they have little impact and do little good.  The names on them are impossible to verify and are often duplicated (if you sign one and forward it to 10 people, the part of the list up to where you signed is now duplicated 10 times; if all 10 of your people forward it, it is duplicated 100 times).\n\nThey are, in short, a waste of time.


please tell me that someone out there has heard of PRIMUS because no one I know has heard of or will listen to it.


We have been married 16.5 years w/ two children.  Early in our marriage I was cold and introverted, partly because I wanted to live in my home state and she didn't, so we didn't, and I resented that.  I have since come to realize it was best not live there and have told her so, but in the mean time she worked extra, not to be at home w/ me, and has pulled away from me emotionally.  She doesn't know it, but just in the last month I have learned another man rented her an apartment for 3 years, she lies to me about business trips when she is really travelling with him, and she spends a few nights per month at his place or his mothers house, telling me she is working. We recently had an emotional conversation in which she told me she is only staying for the kids, but later she apologized and told me she will never leave me.  But she continues to lie about working and spends a night per week with him.  I want her back, should I confront her or try to improve our relationship.

Sounds like your marriage really needs work.  Not just wishful thinking.  You have to show her you genuinely care enough to rebuild the marriage and she has to decide to stop looking elsewhere for what she's not getting from you.  There's a book called "His Needs/Her Needs" by Harley and it outlines that when specific needs are not being met that one of people may go looking elsewhere.  It doesn't mean they should do it but it can happen.  There is always hope if both people want to work through it.

this happened in school pooled me out for testing luckily i passed

sumtimes thouse drug test do make mistakes. Yet, if u really didnt do anythin and u failed it, have no fear. Yet, if ya did do sumthin then, ya might wanna take sumthin to release those toxins outta yer system or just man up and take whats coming. I dont live with my folks anymore, so if they sent it to them they cant really do anythin, since i dont live under their roof. Yet, if i did live with them, depending on the circumstances, id prolly be nonchalant and say,"i duuno what they talkin bout, it must be a mistake." then id go and get the system flush and have no worries.


I was diagnosed with cancer when I was 21.Finally in remission.Had to quit school now I don't know what I want to do.I would like to take some kind of job placement test to kinda steer me in the right direction.I like numbers and want to work with cancer patients but I also want to own my own business.I'm just really lost.

Own your own counseling business for cancer patients.  You will get to work with cancer patients and you can also work with money!  U Should prolly take Psychology classes and business management classes and some math too!  Good Luck!!\n        T-Bone


brief description on cross assemblers alongwith a diagram.

An assembler is a computer program for translating assembly language — essentially, a mnemonic representation of machine language — into object code. \n\nA cross assembler  produces code for one type of processor, but runs on another. The computational step where an assembler is run is known as assembly time.

Is there any circumstances where you are able to write off the cost of a SPA (Jacuzzi) from your taxes?

Hey,\n\nIf you are like me, you might not have been able to find the form or line number for ¨home improvement¨ in your 1040 package.  \n\nMaybe it is right there beside ¨screw driver¨ but I didn´t see it.\n\nThe most common circumstance under which the IRS will cordially greet your hot tub is with a note from your doctor prescibing same.\n\nUnfortunately, it is a medical expense.  Medical, on your schedule A, is subject to a reduction of the first 7.5% of your income.  So unless you have alot of medical expenses, it won´t help you much.\n\nIf your business is incorporated, you might talk to your money guy to go through your corp.\n\nI hope this is some help.\n\n Good Luck.

my bf is a muslim, married, i love him sincerely, and he loves me too. he proposed marriage to me and im thinking to give up religion for him

That is not right. Not right at all. You don't give up God\njust to please your man. He's married. He'll never leave his wife. And if he marries you without divorcing his wife that is bigamy. He can go to jail for that. If you are a \ntrue christian then you know God is not pleased with you right now. Do you want the wrath of God to come down on you?\nIt will come if you don't quit messing with a married man. \nTime is short and we don't have time playing around and doing all this foolish stuff. We need to get our house in order before Jesus come. Why have you forsaken God? After all He has done for you and you want to leave him. God said put no other gods before him.


JUST WONDERING if I should start saving...lol.

If you haven't co-signed for anything than you wouldn't be responsible. Check the laws that govern where you live though. The estate pays the bills, then anything that is left, is divided between the heirs, or according to the will.


The 1992 Camry only had liability insurance so the insurance company didn't pay.  It was parked on the street.  There was a police report.  The car was worth almost $3,000.  Turbo tax described it only has theft or disaster.

The deduction is for a casualty/theft loss.  And a PORTION of the $3000 may be deductible.  You need to find out what the actual Fair Market Value of the car was (use a blue-book, not your estimate).  Subtract any reimbursement your recieved.  And then subtract $100.  This is the amount you can claim as a deduction.\n\nHowever, in order to take the deduction, you have to be itemizing your tax return.  Combined with the car loss, do you have paid medical bills, mortgage interest, personal property tax, and/or chartity contributions that add up to more than $5000 (if you're single, $7500 for HOH, or $10000 if you're married)?\n\nIf not, it's not beneficial for you to claim the loss.\n\nAnd Jeff is right.  I forgot about the 10% of AGI.  Guess I should look next time before answering from memory =)\n\n**As a side note, full coverage is to make sure you are reimbursed dollar for dollar for your loss.  It has nothing to do with a deduction on your federal tax return.


Okay I'm a little lost on this, say I have 4 vectors v1,v2,v3,v4\nIn layman's terms how would I determine if they spanned R^3, I already know they are linerly dependant as k > n (for a nxk matrix).  Also for the dimension of matrix, would it be the rank for a singular matrix?

Assuming, of course, that each of the vectors has 3 entries...\n\nDo you know how to put a matrix formed from those four vectors in row-echelon form?\n\nI'm trying to decide the best way to teach this to you, which is why I need to know if you know how to get the matrices in REF, but the final "Answer" is to see if three of those vectors are linearly independent. If three of them are linearly independent, then they must span R^3.\n\nFor your second question, no. Remember that a singular matrix is a square matrix that is not invertible. Therefore, a singular matrix will not have a pivot in every column, which means that the columns are linearly dependent, which means that the rank is less than the dimension. Any square matrix with a column that is all 0's will will be singular.

i heard something about identity theives using personal info from people's myspace profiles, anybody know about this?

i know one of these girls at my school had her pictures saved and used on a different profile.  pretty creppy if you ask me.  i also saw the same girl's profile information and layout get stolen.  another girl used the same exact words like "i am unique, so deal with it"  and stuff like that.  it was crazy.  i couldn't believe someone cared about myspace so much.


could someone please help me answer this question because i herd that it was bad to do that but i dont know if it is true

I think if you eat something small like a granola bar or something, so you at least have some fuel (energy) to use when exercising, it is ok. I heard that if you do that, have a good work out, and then eat, it's actually better because after working out your metabolism is going fast & is ready to burn off what you eat next. I don't know if that's totally accurate, but it is what I have heard.


I've been there, and i found it to be the most life changing event i've ever been to. I came out of there feeling like a totally new person. I got to know myself so much more in those 2 days, then i've ever felt i've known myself before. Was it life changing for you?

Yes when I was real little.  I don't remember it though.


Very very often, when a guy is talking to a girl --- being nice and such --- it is close to the top of his mind that it would be nice to have sex with her.\n\n(Afterall, guys think about sex at least once every few minutes, and why wouldn't a guy think of making love to the nice looking and pleasant girl that he is talking to?)\n\nAre girls aware that guys have this desire?  (Yes, we aren't total animals and control our actions --- otherwise we would be having sex 24 hours a day)


Where can I find a powered USB 2.0 hub that supplies 750ma or more?  If one could be sourced at a national big box retailer that would be best (BB, CC, CompUSA, etc)

This may be what you need, if not, search the site a lil deeper. Good luck!

Why put your right hand over the left when getting the "body and blood of Christ?" What do the right and left hand mean?

Because most people are right-handed.  Because lefty's like myself are weird.  Give me a break!


i like this guy and we r like best friend. i think he likes me but i dont no how to tell him i like him help me! i need advice!!!

Just tell him you heard someone talking who though you two were more than friends and see where the conversation goes from there.


If there are so many people that don't have a problem with gays, and all these people vote....then why is there such a problem getting an equal right ammendment passed???  I can't see how two gay men getting married affects anyone else's life.  Please don't be ignornat and post a hatred comment...I'll report you for spam.

Sorry this is a long one, but ignorant people make me so I think that most people are accepting of homosexuals today, but they aren't gung ho about accepting it.  I accept homosexuals for who they are and think they should have the right to marry.  I have gay friends and see no problem with their lifestyle.  However I'm not about to go protest in favor of it.  Not because I'd be embarrassed, but because I'm way too lazy to protest for anything.  Whereas we've all seen the bible thumping lunatics in the streets screaming to keep certain rights away from people they don't agree with.  They're too stupid to realize gay people are born that way, because if they admitted it they'd have to admit the bible is wrong, and at that point their whole foundation of life would crumble.  They're idiots who base their lives off of a fictional book(the bible).  If there was ever a proposition or something that I a voter could vote on directly, you'd have my vote.  People in love should be able to marry regardless of who they're in love with.  This is one straight man who is giving you his vote.


I have answered questions and then go back to view other answers only to see that they have been reviewed.  What are the reasons why someone might remove a question?

If someone removes their question they may just get the answer they want and then just remove the question. Or maybe they remove it because they are getting a bunch of ridiculous answers. Or maybe Yahoo removes it because someone has reported it as an abusive question.
