How does AQL/ ANSI standards differ from six-sigma based methods?

Up until the mid to late nineties, AQL acceptable quality level has been based on distributions involving 3 sigma (3 standard deviations) which relate to a 99.997% population. Some have come to believe that leaves a higher probability for failure or unacceptable number of defects.\nThis certainly makes sense in making items such as pace makers, or purity of drugs or supercomputers.\n\nSix sigma takes this to a much tighter tolerance measuring in PPM parts per million. Such things as acceptable rate of radon in water for example where levels of 30PPM is of concerned makes sense to talk about.\n\nI'm not convinced that using a tighter tolerance of measurement on some things that don't have a population near 1 million make sense. Lets say that the number of students in a high school of 2000 who smoke is 100. That would equate to 50000 PPM. That sounds terrible, but in old terms that is 5%. The number doesn't change, just the way it is disclosed.\n\nMore importantly, Six-sigma is a tool not a process. This came out of the LEAN process which is a way to improve. Not necessary to beat on the existing process, but to find better ways to accomplish the results desired. \nLook at the end result goal then examine what better ways are there to get you there. That is the LEAN process.\nex: you can beat your head on making the most efficient gasoline engine. What you should look at is transportation that doesn't depend on oil.\n\nSampling: \nCheck out MIL-105D, MIL-105E which is military standard. Has sample size based on AQL.


she can go to prison if she did that right.I mean if she enters this country because you sponsor her now you marry her ,she takes off ,you divorce her.She changes her paper work and visa and puts a different guys name on it right and marries him. I believe once you divorce them they are out of status.She would go to jail for that I believe.Maybe I will hire a private detective and have her delivered to immigration since they are short handed AND HELP THEM OUT.she came to be a house keeper for her ralatives.

if you got divorced don't worry about it. if you are really mad at her and want revenge then turn her in.


Please tell me your thoughts on Wicca.  I have been a solitary witch practitioner for 14 yrs, and I believe its wonderful.  I do addmitt to taking a more mystic side to my beliefs however, and I am really curious as to what others believe as well.  Please some coments get really nasty so if you are a Christian let me spell it out for you I don't care about hell, and I don't worship Satan.  So if that is the jist of what any of you pragmatics want to say just don't type at all.  Thank you.

I am very interested in Wicca but the reason there are so many Christian questions on here is because there are so many Christians that have strong beliefs and convictions that they will get on here and state them.  If more believers in Wicca were to post their opinions and beliefs on here, and offered up more information, people would have a chance to understand and talk.  You started out great with your question, but then you too ended it with a nasty comment.  My advice (which you can take or leave) if you want people to be more open to your beliefs, trying being more open to theirs.  You don't have to embrace beliefs, but be open to listening and accepting that is what they feel and believe.  If all religions did that, maybe there wouldn't be so many wars over religious beliefs!


I have told one of friends that I thought it might be true, so we put a little bet on it. Now, I've tried searching really deep for this and have come up with nothing. I have a feeling that the info is out there, it's just on the DL. I rememeber something about her having a drug problem in her younger years before Kurt (can you believe it) and that's how she made ends meet sometimes.\n\nSOMEONE FOUND THE ANSWER FOR ME I GUESS, BUT NEVER TOLD ME WHERE I COULD FIND THE INFO MYSELF.  I NEED VISUAL PROOF THIS IS TRUE. EITHER IN WRITING OR SOME KIND OF CLIP THAT I DOUBT IS OUT THERE.\n\nThank you.

My understanding is that she was a stripper in the early years but no more see\n\nhttp://www.nndb.com/people/389/000022323/


This song is about this guy who has a dream.  I guess his daughter that has passed away comes to visit him in his sleep.  That's what the song is about!The chorus of the song goes like this: "You say Daddy, you say daddy... dont you worry, dont you worry... I am here, right here beside you." In the middle of the song the little girl says "I love you daddy" in the sweetest voice.

OK...I'VE BEEN SEARCHING THIS ONE FOR AN HOUR NOW AND ALL I'M COMING UP W/ IS ALEX MONTEZ..."MUY ESPECIAL"...ITS A CUTE SONG AND THERES A LITTLE GIRL THAT SAYS "I LOVE YOU PAPI" (LOL!) AND I KNOW U HAD SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND BUT I WANTED TO LET U KNOW THERE ARE PPL OUT HERE (LIKE ME LOL) THAT CARE TO LOOK FOR U...IM JUST AS CURIOUS!\nGL!!! :)


Great Personality? Good lover? Friendly? Adventureous?

your an aquarious As it is a water sign so they are like water calm from outside and misterious from inside. They are very friendly to those whom they feel comfortable with. they are not that much into adventures. They can be gud lover and have a good charm to attract others. It is hard to understand whats going on an aquarous mind. \nThese all was for aquarious sign but if you wan to knwo abt great personality - if you wll be like what you are and truly show ur inner self than i am sure you have a gr8 personality. If you love someone with all your heart and show that you care than you will b a gr8 lover and if you show ur caring and loving side than you are friendly and as per adventures goes if you are comfortable in doing things which you like or without a fear abt what other thinks that you got that dear.\n\nI hope it makes Sense:)


MY father gave up his italian citizenship and now iam looking to get an italian passport to work in italy.. iam a canadian With a father that was born in Naples Italy but came here in the 60s. Iam 26 years old and live in Toronto. Is getting my passport as easy as applying for it OR do i have to live in Italy for a period of time.

look I think the law applies equal in every Italian embassy, so I'll say this: My grandpa also renounce to the italian citizen  and we found ourselves in problem) then we found out that if he did it after 1947 (something like that) we still could make him trough him.\nWell it might seem no good news for you, but next to me , at the embassy, was this girl that had the same trouble than you , (her dad renounce to it) so they gave her (don't remember exactly what) a certain amount of requirement to fullfill.\nSo, my advice is, go to the closest embassy or consulate and find out what to do, after you start the process you might look for a kind of visa to work in Italia and  accelerate the papers there.


I am staying in india. I heard about Data entry jobs from BPO companies that can be done from home or office with internet connection .Whom and where should i contact to get this jobs?

Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)\n\nBPO is the act of transferring some of an organization's repeated non-core and core business processes to an outside provider to achieve cost reductions while improving service quality. BPO offers companies a way of achieving transformational outcomes much more quickly. In a typical BPO contract, a service provider takes over a specific corporate function. \n\nI hope this help you.

I recently installed YM 7.0 The Yahoo tool bar changed with it. I want the recent search history that's located in the tool bar to stay put until I decide to clear it. That's the way the other one was before YM 7.0 was installed. Currently, the recent history clears itself as soon as I close Internet Explorer. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!

On the yahoo toolbar, click on the toolbar settings button (thats the button that looks like a pencil), then go to toolbar options. \nOnce there, un-check the box that says "Auto clear search history when quitting IE".\nLater when you want to clear it, go to the toolbar settings button again and click on "Clear Search History"


i work as a hair stylist in jakarta, indonesia. being a hairstylist and living in jakarta, that means 90% of your friend is gay and at least two times a week, me and my friends go to wild party and clubs.  is there any chance for me to quit ecstasy, but still not loosing my friends and my social life?

It will be extremely tough to make this very important lifestyle decision without changing your friends or your social life. If you have extreme willpower and think you can manage them both, then by all means try to do so.\n\nBut if you keep falling into the trap of doing E because you are with your friends, I'd say they have to go.


weeks or there about. I got no cofermation number with my order which was odd. I got no tracking number or email to comferm my order. It took me 5 times to get the order right, per my phone calls to them each time get more upset that it was such an issue to place the order. Then when I got through I comended the young man who took the order. But yet he wrote my email down wrong and my street address I think wrong. So the whole order was messed up..I called on monday of this week and it was all worked out ( Iwas told) but then no one knew what I was talking about today..The person who I delt with on Monday just returned my call,to tell me she found it and it was on its way via UPS. So do you think I will have it by Saturday? And has this happened to you before with MLBShop.com?

I ordered a Jersey from them.  Two weeks later, after my phone calls, they told me they were out of stock.  They don't seem to know what they are doing.  I have my best luck through Amazon.com. =)


I'm a junior in college and have my final exams next week... does anyone have advice for studying any of these topics???\n\nPsychology: Brain and Behavior\nTextiles\nMacroeconomics\nIntro to Political Science\n\nThanks!

I used to type outlines for each of my classes.  Mostly class notes and some book notes.  For professors who stress the readings more, you can base your outline on the major concepts in the book (the table of contents is a good outline for starters).  Its a lot of work, but it always paid off for me!


The USA playes Germany in a friendly on Tuesday, March 21.\nIs this game somewhere on TV ?

To Shaun: that's not quite right - Germany got beat pretty bad by Italy just a couple of weeks before this game. So, many people in Germany weren't really counting on the German team to win - they were happy they did, though!\nThe US-soccer team is a pretty good team!\nP.S. I am from Germany!

im not sure if it does but i dont like the way it smells

You are very brave to ask this question. First of all I have heard that what you eat has alot to do with you'll taste and smell like. For example if you eat onions alot, you'll have an onion smell,not just down there but your sweat,etc.If you want to taste sweet eat alot fruit and drink juice. Vegetarians smell different than people who eat meat. Also if the smell is really bad you probably have an infection. All women have a smell to them but it shouldn't be bad. A bad odor almost never has to do with cleanliness, but is a sign of infection. Ask you gyno. But do not douche or use perfume on that area it is not good for you at all. Douche is probably the worst thing you could do. Your body is self cleaning, as far as the inside of you is concerned. Good luck.


Three men went to a hotel to get a room for the night,the night clerk charged them $30 for the room, so each man gave the clerk $10 ( 3 x 10 = 30).\n   The day manager comes into work, and realizes that the men had been overcharged, the room should only have cost $25 for the night.\n   The manager summons a bellhop and says take this $5 bill and gave it back to the three men in this room. The bellhop is dishonest, gives each man back $1 and keeps $2 for himself.\n   So now each man has paid $9 for the room and the bellhop has $2 but (3 X 9) + 2 = 29. we started out with $30 so where is the missing dollar?

There is no missing dollar. You calculations are deceptive. The manager has his 25, the guys each have one and the bellhop has 2. 25+1+1+1+2=30\nAdide from that the guys haven't paid $9 each, they just think they did. They really paid less, they just didn't get all they deserved back, so in their minds they paid 9 and the manager has the other 3\nSo I'm going to assume the whole point of the (3x9)+2 is to cause confusion and the answer is that is irrelavent because they didnt pay 9 each.


I really like this boy we've been going steady 4 a while. Well we just broke up. Im still in LOVE with him but i'm not sure if he feels the same about me. Should I try 2 get him back, or try 2 get over him? What should i do..

Get over him! more on ur just wasting ur time on him cause there is many other guys in this world. 1 down & 1000's to go. But if can't do that than talk 2 him & c wut ya'll can work out. To me tha best thing i would 2 since i was once in ur postion is just move on.


his reason for this is because every time we get on the phone it always turns into an argument, which is true, but i really care for him and love him and never did i think that not ever speaking to each other will be the end result of our "relationship"\nwe started out as really good friends\nbecasme boyfriend and girlfriend\nthen he broke up with me\nwe were trying the whole friend thing (even thought he had a girlfriend) which was fine by me\nbut he all of a sudden started acting weird towards me which would result in an argument every time we spoke\nthen he just finally came to this conclusion\ni really do miss him not as my man but as my friend

Dear girl,\nI am suspecting that you are quite young if you're still not backing up since your Ex told you to. I would recommend, please give it a time. I know how you feel inside. I've been there, and it felt horrible at the time. But, trust me! After a while, maybe 3 weeks, maybe 3 months, but you'll feel much better. You will get over him! And you'll wonder why you were suffering as you are right now! The possible reason for your Ex acting this way is maybe that he have found his true love. And now he doesn't want to ruin it. Probably, his new girlfriend doesn't want you guys hanging out. So, please have some dignity and let him go. Don't be surprised though, if you get a call in few years from your Ex. So, I hope that you understand what I'm trying to say. Good luck!

What Women Want???????? \nIts has been a great mistery. lets solve it right now. all females shout answer this.

Let me tell you a story. This question was set to a knight who was very unhappy becouse he couldn't solve it, until he met an ugly old crone who said she would tell him the answer if he married her. Reluctantly he agreed, she told him the answer and the mystery was solved. When the crone arrived at his castle the knight was astonished to find her transformed into a beautiful maiden, she told him she was cursed to be a crone only half the day. He requested she be beautiful at night, which made her angry as people would mock her if she was a crone all day. He changed his mind and said be beautiful by day, which made her angry as she thought he didn't care what she looked like. So he said " I can't decide, you choose " At that moment the curse was broken as he had given her what every woman wants, HER OWN WAY.  (Of course every womans way is subtly different, and the exact details are something you will have to figure out. Mostly we wan't men to be able to read our minds and know what we are thinking)


For example, we have a birdie, eagle and albatross.

Which came first, the birdie or the eagle? The birdie, and the eagle followed and continued the feathered theme.\n\nIn American slang of the 19th Century, the term "bird" was applied to anything particularly great. "Bird" was the "cool" of the 1800s in the U.S.\n\nSo on the golf course, a great shot - one that led to an under-par score - came to be known as a "bird," which was then transformed into "birdie." The term birdie was in worldwide use by the 1910s, and it's believed it debuted in the U.S. in 1899.\n\nAn "eagle" simply followed "birdie," being added to the lexicon in keeping with the avian image of birdie. And "albatross" later came along for the same reason.\n\nSource: USGA Museum

I notice a high number of Christians who are all anti-evolution and anti-any-opinion-but-their's on Yahoo Answers... I thought computers were the devil in born-again cults?\n\nI'm Catholic and almost every priest, bishop, even monk I've spoken with has told me the Bible being taken literally (as it is with wacko Christians) is basically idol-worshipping where the symbols are words and phrases rather than golden cows. All of them also think evolution exists (even the Vatican acknowledges that evolution - not creationism - should be taught in the classroom!!!) and don't doubt its existance, but see God as the prime mover (as he is in St. Thomas Aquinas' logic)... \n\nSo born-agains, et al... Please answer me:\n\nWhy do you have so much hate in you that drives you to oppress the rights of gay and lesbian couples?\n\nWhy do you claim to stand for the love of Christ when you refuse to reconcile with the Catholic Church and prejudice against Catholicism?\n\nWhy do you work to undermine science?

Nice try.\nNo bites on this end of the lake.


Cairo,Egypt and Nepal are both countries that lie on 30 degrees north latitude

first of all it is a fact that when u rise 150 meters above sea level ...that's 492 feet...the temperature decreases by i degree Celsius...that's  30 Fahrenheits.\n\nyet Egypt's altitude is almost at sea level...Nepal's is almost all mountains.\n\n\n\nalso Egypt is the most sunniest place in the whole world\nand being 90% desert...the sand absorbs the heat much faster...so it appears to be much hotter as the sand acts as a flame or hot oven and rewarms up the air.\n\nand as the earth is tilted... so the focus of the sun is not at the equator as most people believe but slightly more to the north.\n\nEgypt has two shores plus the Nile...so high humidity...yet the high temp. and no mountains ...so very little chance to rain...this humidity...exaggerates the feel of heat.


When flour is dissolved in water at room temperature, the volume of the flour and and water added together is not the same as the resulting mixture.  For example 1 cup of water with  1/2 cup of flour results in 1 and 1/8 flour.

Flour doesnt dissolve in water, it forms a suspension- If something dissolves, it forms a clear solution.  The previous answer is correct, it shrinks due to the loss of air.


Can anyone suggest if thereis any free software based on php/mySQL that will allow email marketing campaigns, opt-in and such email.

I am not sure if there is one such system...


our band has been playing for 4 years we r all most perfect\njust need better eqip we have tryed demos and almost every thing

You have to promote your music. If you're playing gigs put all the money you can on a great album to sell at your shows. Form a relationship with your local radio stations. Some will play indie music. Get in touch with music publishers. Do anything you can to get heard. The major labels won't accept unsolicited material so don't waste your time. You can also try taxi.com. They're a huge company the big boys go to when they want fresh faces and material. Don't give up. Good luck.

Everyone has seen the question 100 times on here...about threesomes.  Well, I just asked about all three the same sex, is that obscene and if so, how come its only obscene if all 3 the same and not obscene when 2 same and 1 diff?

Similar thing happened to me because some people's sensibilities just wont stand for that kind of a question.  I'm as open minded as the next guy and would never report anything like that.  But when someone does, for whatever reason, I suppose Yahoo are obliged to do something about it.  If you haven't been banned or your account deleted then don't worry too much about it.

i am a 21 yrs old female that always has bad breath no matter how much i brush and floss and its really killing my social life cuz im so insecure to talk to ppl when i know my mouth smells. any ideas or things that worked for you?

Bad Breath is caused by bad breath bacteria that live in a sticky coating called a biofilm. This biofilm coats our teeth, gums, tongue, throat and nasal passages every day. The bad bacteria live in this biofilm and digest proteins that are also present. From these proteins the bacteria are able to make smelly Volatile Sulphur Compounds that are then exhaled when we talk or breathe through our nose. It is these smelly compounds that people recognise as bad smells coming from our breath.\n\nWhen brushing your teeth, amek sure you brush your tounge as wel, because this is where most of the bacteria form. \n\nLook for special mouth washes to help with this- mouth washes that are for gingivites, plaque, and periodontis. \n\nBad breath isnt always caused by poor dental hygiene. It could be caused by other things such as:\n\n-Gum disease (e.g. gum boils, abscesses, spongy gums, gingivitis) \n-Candidiasis\n-Poor digestion and sluggish liver \n-Multiplication of odor-causing bacteria in the mouth and digestive tract \n-Chronic sinus infection \n-Certain medications (especially those that cause dry mouth as a side effect) \n\n\nOther things that you can try to help with the bad breath are:\n\n-Gargle with a peppermint and fennel flavored mouth wash\n-Chewing raw celery sticks helps to freshen breath \n-Make sure that your toothbrush is kept clean and sterilized \n-Dry mouth is a frequent cause of bad breath. Make sure you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day \n-Do not go on starvation diets. Regular chewing and swallowing helps with saliva production and can help to prevent dry mouth \n-Use Detox Drops to cleanse your system \n-Take a course of Candidate if you suspect that you have Candida overgrowth (Candidiasis). Symptoms include fatigue, frequent yeast infections, digestive disorders, excessive gas and odor problems. \n-Clearing underlying and chronic sinus infections can help to prevent bad breath \n\nIf all else fails, ask your dentist. He may have to give you a prescription to help fight off some of the bacteria, which is normal for some people. \n\nGood luck!

For camp we have "bug sisters" and "little sisters" and i have a big sister. We im each other i have 2 im accounts but i only talk to her on 1.She appers to be offline on 1 acconu but onlne  on the one i don't im her with. Does this mean she blocked me? Should i confront her or what?

NO U ARE NOT BLOCKED. \ni m sure u must be knowing that u can group IDs in your messenger. Like friends can be put under FRIEND group, office ppl under OFFICE group etc...\nThere is a provision given by Yahoo called "Stealth Settings". Where u can remain online for a group or selected indivisuals and for others u will appear offline (i.e. invisible mode).\nnow in ur case ur sis might have put one of ur id(with which u talk) in one group and the other one in another group or the other one is not added\nso when she comes online she wants to talk to selected ppl so she appears online to selected ppl including u. for other IDs which are not in her messenger or in other group she appears offline (invisible).\n\nAppearing offline does not mean BLOCKING , BLOCKING is WHEN U CANT SEND ANY MESSAGE OR RECEIVE ANY (NO COMMUNICATION POSSIBLE).


The example report might include, oil and gas production, Drilling, Exploration, Technical Services, Administration & Training and Finance Departments reports.  real example will be better and will appreciated  Thanks

The other day this guy offered me a ride home after school. (I always take the bus.) He is my classmate though I rarely talk to him. I really wanted a ride especially cuz it was a rainy day and i just thought it was really nice that he offered me a ride, but I just refused with an excuse cuz just in case I didn't wanna make him think anything weird. Then he said "Ok but let me know if you want a ride anytime." so I was like "Ok thanks." \nThere were some other girls around me too but he only asked me if I wanted a ride. Do you think he could have expected something out of me if I accepted his offer? Do you think he could be interested in me personally? Or did he just feel bad and offered me a ride cuz I was taking a bus on a rainy day? Am I thinking too much?

he seems like a nice guy.. talk to him about how you feel!!

How does loan consolidaiton works?\nI have Federal Stafford loan and private loan.\n\nWhat is the procedure for consolidation and how much do you save?

Yes you should consolidate. It makes it easier to pay because you'll just have 1 payment. If you move around, you'll also just have to keep track of 1 loan instead of 2. Try this http://www.dlservicer.ed.gov/consolidatenow/welcome.asp . My husband and consolidated with them. They have a low rate and they offer a discount if you pay automatically from your account every month. They also adjust your payment according to changes in interest rates automatically. You'll just notice that your monthly payment has decreased.

You don't have to do anything.  Just being home with your family will be enough.  As much as you want to be back with them and get back to life at home, they want the same.  Just get home and love them like never before:)  Welcome home!


Which doesnt shed much and is it safe for people with ashma.

any dog that has a single coat of hair. poodles, kerry blue terriers, soft coated wheaton terriers, labrdoodles...Purina has a good tool for picking the right dog for you. it asks about the size of your home and yard as well as how often you're willing to walk a dog...\n\nhttp://sy.adiho.com/ASA/Controller?adi_hasScript=1&_AD_195R22=111&adi_scriptSID=659B1279EEEAAECE00C1C343F29693F0&sysid=4&appid=9901\n\nremember just because a dog doesn't shed doesn't mean that they won't drag grasses in from outside which could trigger allergies.


My priest announced that next week there will be protesters outside of my church.  I’m scared and don’t understand why people want to stop me from worshiping.   He asked that we not communicate with the protesters and that we focus on Jesus’ saying, “Forgive them for they know not what they do” … but it’s still scary!!!\n\nAre we really that communist that we’re striving to bankrupt religion to get rid of all religion as Karl Marx suggests???

Consider it a blessing. it's easy to have faith and believe in something when no one disagrees with you or makes it uncomfortable to do so. now you can say you have faced adversity and STILL went to church and still upheld your belief. it's not the same as risking being fed to the lions, but hopefully you get the point, sometimes you have to stand up for your beliefs with more than words. have courage.

What is the equation, plz show full working

The equation should be in the form y=mx+b where m = gradient or slope and b = y-intercept.  So you already know the equation is y = 2x + something since 2 is given to be the gradient.\n\nPut the x coordinate of your point (-3,5) in for x and put the y-coordinate in for y.  \nNow you have 5 = 2(-3) + something\n\nSimplify: 5 = -6 + something\n\nYou can find out what "something" is by adding 6 to both sides\n\n11 = something\n\nPut it all together and you get y = 2x + 11\n\nI hope you can learn what to do from this explanation so if you have any other problems you can do them yourself.


We have a mortgage with about 16,000 left and we have bad credit, but we need to either add on or do something and we were wondering if we could try to get a modular put on our land and then put the rest of the mortgage owed onto the balance of whatever the new house would cost, if we put the land as colateral.

A mortgage on real estate generally includes the lot, unless it's a condo or a townhouse.  This will be spelled out in the property deed.  What you are suggesting is actually refinancing the existing loan and adding the modular unit to it.  Talk to a mortgage loan officer at your bank or savings and loan.  It's possible that you can do this, since your mortgage balance is so small.  Your credit score will have a bearing on the bank's willingness to do this, but the equity you have in the house you are currently living in may be sufficient collateral to persuade them to do it.  You've gotta talk to the lending institution to determine the feasibility of what you want to do.

I am looking for an interpreter in Texas that has recently taken their BEI test; have you gotten your results?

I didnt just recently take my test. I took mine back in the middle of December. I just got my results in like the1st week of March. yes it was late but they were slow in grading test because there were a lot of applicants then.


I'm looking for a good computer with at least a gig of memory, 80 gig harddrive, decent graphics, Pentium M processor, and good reputation.  I've looked at several, and I think I have found it: the Thinkpad Z60m.  However, I heard that the 9 cell battery wobbles.  I'm trying to keep it under $2000, and I'd like to hear what some users have to say about that and other computers.  Also, how much does the computer model matter, so long as the hardware is the same.  For example, the Dell D610 and D810 can basically have the same setup, but the D810 costs more.  I'm looking for a good computer for engineering; I start next year.  Just wondering.  Thanks.

wait a minute, are you building a computer or you want to buy a laptop, by you saying that you want to use Pentium M, and the ThinkPad thing and the batteries, I think you're planning to buy a laptop, isn's it?\n\nWell, your specs is not low, but is still reachable within the $2000 range.\n\nNote: D610 is not the same spec as D810, see: http://reviews.cnet.com/Dell_Latitude_D610/4507-3121_7-31268759.html?tag=sub\nand http://reviews.cnet.com/Dell_Latitude_D810/4507-3121_7-31268760.html?tag=sub\n\nD810 is the higher end one, the main differences are: it has twice the memory (RAM), Better Battery, Microphone available, slightly bigger screen size, etc, etc, etc.\n\nStrangely though, according to CNet's rating, D610 is rated higher than D810, maybe cause of the price


It is a superbowl MVP card and it is autographed.  Do you think i should sell it or not?

It depends, do you like Joe Montana or not? If you like him and want his memorabilia then keep it. If you sell it it might not be worth that much because it is a card. On eBay you can probably find something like that for about $5, but if you sell it to a sports memoribilia shop owner he might give you about $25-$50.


I took the dog home called the police and give them all the circumstances,as well as the info on the dogtags.The police found the ownner,charged him.They said I could take the dog to the  spca,or keep him untill the owner decides what to do I hope he never calls.Did I do the right thing?

yes, but risky.  I would have just called the police.  Without evidence or witnesses, you could have been charged with theft...don't know your circumstances.


yea well, i think thats its on cartoon network


I have 4 grown children. But I remember a time, after I was divorced and working two jobs, I still had a few times\nwhere food was scarce. I didn't qualify for assistance.\nNow, I grow veggies and fruits. I swear I will never let this happen again.

Yes, but I thank God everyday for my mother.


The reason the question above was asked....... I was going to watch a whole movie with the volume muted."I was just wondering how it would be if I didnt have my hearing".I watched the MGM lion roar but no sound it was so funny, the MGM lion didn't seem so powerful muted.So for the rest of the movie I laughed silentley when people in the movie,laughed .I then began to notice alot of people laugh and not a peep comes out.

well... i don't know what is wrong with me all of a sudden but it seems like since i got pregnant i have asthma or something and my through feels like my tubes are all puffy inside so when i laugh when i'm out of breath i sould like mutley on that old racing cartoon. there's like barely any noise coming out, it just sounds like wheezing.


i am 14 and i really like this boy but i have a boyfriend i have been wit for 3 years but my boy friend drinks alot and beats me and we always fight and i am scared if i leave him he will hurt me he is 18

Why would u stay with someone that beats u? For 3 years? Get out and get a restraining order, it will be hard but in the long run it will make you stronger and you will be much happier and safe.


Hurricanes are my topic. I need to build a visal aid for it and it has to be 3-d have any ideas? Its due in week and a half.

Draw a picture of your state fairly large, like on poster board and then make a 3-d hurricane out of paper mache or something and basically put a hurricane on your state to show how big they are and if a hurricane came to your state, that's how much of your state would be affected.


Hey... I'm on my schools baseball team for pitcher and outfield. I am not that great a pitcher but i know how to through a few pitches. In my research online I have discovered a pitching style called the submarine. Does anyone know IN DEPTH what this is and do you know where I can get pictures of it. I only know a little about it. Thanks.

In baseball, a submarine is a pitch delivered with a three-quarter sidearm or underhand motion. The pitcher delivers the ball while almost scraping his knuckles on the dirt. The pitch has a tendency to break more than one delivered with an overhand motion. These are the toughest pitchers for right-handed hitters to hit (if the pitcher is right handed). But a lot of their breaking balls seem to float to a lefty. Pitches thrown via a submarine motion are also generally more difficult for hitters to see relative to pitches thrown via an overhand motion.\n\nThe rarity of submarine pitchers is sometimes attributed to the different technique required, rather than being an inferior pitching style. The technique is unknown to most coaches simply because the vast majority of pitchers use overarm motions. Thus, most young baseball pitchers are encouraged to throw overhand.\n\nThere are not many hard-throwing ones. Perhaps the most notable hard throwing submariner was Carl Mays, whose unorthodox delivery possibly contributed to the fatal beaning of Ray Chapman.\n\nIn the present day, Chad Bradford of the New York Mets, Mike Myers for the New York Yankees, and Byung-Hyun Kim with the Colorado Rockies, are regular submariner pitchers in the major leagues. Some in the past have been more deliberate, like Ted Abernathy, Kent Tekulve and Dan Quisenberry.

I'm going to a hotel and want to connect to their Wifi on my laptop but I don't even know where to start. I tried searching for tips or anything that would help, but all I got was a bunch of businesses trying to sell Wifi, not answers. So if anybody can help, I'd really appreciate it!

you have to go to the hotel reception and ask them for the WEP code and the channel number. The WEP code is an encryption code used to prevent from piggyback that net. If the hotel is very restrictive, they also use a MAC address filtering.\n\nWhat to do on your PC:\nThere is wireless configuration application, where you can enable WEP encryption and code. You also can select the channel number.\n\nThe MAC address can be found on a sticker on the buttom of your notebook and if required, you have to tell it to the hotel, but this is very unlikely to be used.\n\nIn case the hotel has an open wireless spot (no WEP encryption) then you have probably to disable WEP encryption on your Laptop in case it is set.


well would you.  NO matter who he is running againts?

Hey theace0804 - I really don't know how to break this to you, but Rudy Giuliani is a Republican.


It is BS that chris columbus discovered america! That is the "WHITE" man's lame story ... where in american history books /schools do the kids of america get  any real TRUTH? The "truth" that NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS already had 100's of communities "from sea to shining sea" here in america! \nWhen will INDIANS be given credit they deserve and ownership of land that what was robbed from them?!\nChris columbus day is a PRESERVATION of "anglo saxon" heritage (mighty whitey) and a desecration and insult to our "HOME of the BRAVE".  ALL PEOPLE ARE CREATED EQUAL ......RED SKINS were slaughtered and robbed -genocide by the the "WHITE " man - without looking back, rather covered it up with a celebration of COLUMBUS day to distract people from the truth that columbus only discovered a place that he can start an extermination/ eradication / genocide of an entire race. To top it off the "WHITE" man created a GOV"T PAID HOLIDAY out of it! ATLEAST get rid of that out of respect for NATIVE INDIANS

It makes me sick inside when I think of that subject. I actually had a very charismatic History Teacher, he informed us when our books were trying to brainwash us. What is truly sad is that white people didn't stop with the Indians. They oppressed many cultures. Don't worry though. Our time here on earth isn't judged in groups. We all face that alone.


really want to adopt my step daughter, but really cant afford it any special grants or anything out there for veterans??

Check out the website link below.  It gives resources to fund adoption.  This is one of MANY websites out there.\n\nI agree with the other poster, what is the situation with the father?  That needs to be settled, and he needs to sign his rites away (if he is still living).\n\nAlso try researching on google.  There are tons of websites out there to give resources and ideas on how to raise money.\n\nThe one difference in acquiring a loan or grant for adopting a baby or child versus adopting your step-daughter, is that you might not be able to acquire as large an amount of money.\n\nHave you tried a bank loan, or home equity line of credit?


How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 8.8 x 10^8g (^8 mean the 8 is a superscript, like read ten to the eigth power)  of water from 30 degrees Celsius to 48 degrees Celsius?

use the fmla.... Q=msT\n\nwhere Q is the quantity of heat required, m is mass, s is specific heat capacity of water, T is the temperature difference. i dont hav a calculator with me now, u do the computations plz...


Some sources say it is difficult to get all the nutrients you need for a healthy pregnancy from your diet alone (even if you eat healthily) - whereas others say it could be dangerous/not necessary.

Since you may be in the process of getting pregnant or you are pregnant already, it is a good idea to supplement on folic acid to prevent neural tube defect for your baby and calcium to maintain healthy bones for yourself and for your baby. Again I would see a physician to see which vitamin formulation is good for you since there are many brands in the pharmacy. There are other pre-natal vitamins OTC. YOu may ask a pharmacist for help at any pharmacy.


Recent Alaska Airline Web Special Fares: \n\nKetchikan to Petersburg - $169.00 \nLos Angeles to Calgary, Canada - $149.00 \n\nKetchikan to Petersburg - 109 miles \nLos Angeles to Calgary - 1,189 miles \n\nKetchikan to Petersburg - $1.55 per mile \nLos Angeles to Calgary - 12.5 cents per mile \n\nAlaska Airlines profit 2005 = $55,000,000.00 \n(Seattle Times - January 26, 2006)

it cost to do short trips. between petersburg and ketchikan they stop in wrangell which is the shortess u.s. commerisial flight.. it cost alot to dump fuel, and  for man power.\nplus they need to average out cost. flights with higher number of people per flight are cheaper..then short one with  fewer number of people...\nremember you can always use the ferry...


I am a Science Student who intend, studying Electronic and Electrical Engineering in America.But i am an orphan,i need help.\ni am looking for e-mail addresses of websites that help one to secure education in America without demanding fees i.e. Organisations in the form of philanthropist

Rare and waste to look online. You must get a sponsor from your own country. There is no such thing as financial aid for foreigners in the U.S. and scholarships are rare unless you have fantastic grades and background. I'd suggest looking through government sponsorship from your country or work/associate yourself with a company that will pay for your education. It's all about connections. If you live in the U.S. and are a resident then there are better options. If you are in the U.S. you should hit the public libraries and ask for scholarship info. They have books and links.\n\nGood luck!


What do you do if somebody comes up to you on the street and asks you for money--is scamming you, but you're afraid that they'll kill you if you don't give it to them--but they aren't openly threatening you--so you give them the money.  Should I call the police?

There's really no downside to calling the police.  Let them and the DA worry about making their case.  You're just alerting them to an important matter of public safety.


It depends what you mean by young.  As a child, it was dealing with the emotional affects of my parents arguing.  As a teen, it was disowning some of my friends whom I had been friends with for a long time because of their inappropriate behaviors.


I DON'T WANT ANY HYPOCRITES TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION PLEASE!!!

Honestly, you live on in the memory of the lives of people that were special to you and that you touched through your actions.  As an atheist/secular humanist I believe it is important that I leave the world a better place than I found it.  As such, I try to touch the lives of as many people as possible while I am living on this beautiful blue globe.


I love to debate.  I debate with family, friends, professors, and classmates.  A difference in opinion doesn't cause hurt feelings with my family or friends, but sometimes it does with classmates. I don't get it.  \n\nAttacking a point of view is not a personal attack.

do you know, that bugs me too, i like a good debate, a different opinion that can be expanded and discussed is great, doesnt mean that its a personal attack, i consider my self  sensative but i love a good debate thats how the world moves forward dont you think.


how can i meet people who think beyond religion,cast,nationality and monitory status.And ready to work for a better world and better generation.who want to fight against curruption

What corruption are you going to fight?  You can't fight anyone in religion, or who has caste, or a nationality, or a particular monitory status unless you are willing to fight any and all at all levels.  What if a whole religion was corrupt?  Or a nation?  What if one was more corrupt than another.  Would you support the nation that was less corrrupt?  By what standard do you judge corruption?\nI do think beyond such things, but often find that people who claim to be beyond such limited thinking as nationalism, religion, or monitory status still seem to think that they are owed something, that one political group the corrupt one, or that all nations are equal in ethics.\n\nI don't think you can find the person you want because I don't think you understand what you are really asking for.  Most people cannot handle a person with real ethics.\n\nMy wife and I know that from long experience.  Our friends are few.


i need some help with gymnastics ideas for a routine... i'm 12 and i'm training for the junior olympics in Costa Rica. my trainer doesn't do routines that really work well for me. my email is jazzgirl_777@yahoo.com if you come up with something.

it depends on the music you are going to use and what skills you are good at. if you put them in a routine then you should be good.


You have 5 friends who want to go to a concert with you, but you only have room in your car for 2 of them.

I am not trying to tell you that I am beatiful but those boys whom their face is good and lived among some friends which are deferent in color of the body, know what I am talking about.\nI am a boy:\nin my childhood (10 years old) some of my friends and even my relations(cousin and...)were always make me to have sex with them\nand I was too small to fight them and unfortunatly they bothering me too much.and when I was crying and asking them to dont do so,they answered : you dear blonde boy, you are like a girl and...\nnow I am 23 years old  and they cant do that to me  but they alway keep on insulting me and I am really suffering,\nthe only blame of mine is being blonde among Iranians who are dark\n I swear I have no other blame,so please tell me how can I save my self and my honor    please tell me

being that young and not being able to fight them off, is not your fault at all.  its also not your fault that your a blonde-headed man rather than a darker one.  no matter how hard it is you need to just get away and start a new life, where people wont treat you like that.  im not sayin that you will never be hurt, you never know, but you can change your surroundings to where your not in that envrioment anymore.  nobody deserves to be treated like that at all!  your honor is not distroyed, you were young and couldnt stop what was going on.


If you could read my other questions for info, that'd be great. If you're lazy, here's a short summary.\nI have a friend who's two years younger than me, and we're both guys. But lately I can't get him out of my head. This drove me to break up with my girlfriend, and I told him earlier this week that I broke up with her for him. This guy has obviously had a kid crush on me for awhile now, and I'm afraid of hurting him if I go any farther, especially because I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about him.\nSince I told him, I've driven him to and from school every day like always, but it's easy to tell there's kind of an uncomfortable silence most of the time and it's pretty tense between us. i think i may have already screwed up.\nAny advice on where to go from here? What do I do, what do I say to him, how do I act?\nHow can I be sure I'll never hurt him?


this has been on my mind from the begining of this - war? how does one fight a state of mind, an ideal, a belief? how does one fight inanimate objects like drugs for that matter? it all seems pretty rediculous to me and our track record for these types of wars tends to side with me. how does someone rationalize this? if you can, go for it and don't be afraid to write an essay on the matter. if you agree with me, go ahead and preach. i respect everyone's opinions

The war on terrorism isn't trying to prevent people thinking what they want to. It is trying to make people think twice before they try something. Let me put it this way, if I hated this country and wanted to blow up some stuff, I would think twice if I knew that the consequences would be something along the lines of carpet bombing of my country. It is severe and unjust, but it is also more than anyone else is trying to do.\n\nAs to the war on drugs, it is not fought against inanimate objects, it is fought against those who make and distribute those objects.\n\nI am not meaning to sound high and mighty, I am just putting forth my opinion, and trying not to disrespect yours.

I cant stop having sex. I keep thinking of sex all the time. Its real reat but why is it so?

It is sharing with another human being.  It's closeness.  It's intimacy when done right.  Warm and wet feels good.  There is release.

For example in the case of a navel gun both the projectile and the weapon carry a Mark designation. Mark IIV round ball and the Mark 8 gun.

Mark means the same thing as Version.  They are just different versions of the gun, etc.  As an example, here is the Wikipedia entry for the Mark VI tank.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_VI_(tank)\n\n"After having made plans for the continued development of the Mark I into the Mark IV, the Tank Supply Committee (the institute planning and controlling British tank production) in December 1916 ordered the design of two new types: the Mark V and the Mark VI. The Mark V should embody the most advanced features that could still be incorporated into the Mark I hull."


I have a tarp with blood on it because I had to put my dog on it after it got hit. It now is in pieces and I burn stuff in my burn barrel. My nephew is interested in forensic? science and wants to know if you can still see blood after it's been burned. I guess I'm asking does it still have a residue.

Assuming good airing, the proteins in blood won't last in a fire. However, from lab experience with burn barrel remains, textiles are prone to incomplete combustion. Pieces of cloth folded in might survive a single go at the barrel, and blood residue will likely survive, too. Even fragmentary DNA might survive.\n\nOnce the textiles are reduced to ashes, blood remains will be extremely hard to pinpoint, and definitely not by blacklight. There is a slight possibility that ash that keeps the textile structure can register a higher mineral content than it ought to due to minerals dissolved in blood. Destruction-free analytical methods like X-ray spectroscopy or more likely (for minuscule samples) Electron-microscope-incited X-ray resonance might point to a change in mineral content that could most likely be caused by blood. This wouldn't be hard evidence, but might be used as supportive evidence.

....can the mother move out of state without getting in trouble... father is a truck driver home on weekends and sometimes once a week, he smokes marijuana gets verbally abusive with child just doing kid stuff i.e spilling drinks, playing with his food, etc. Hasn't worn wedding band in 10 months since we had a huge fight. I am feeling more like a roomate/maid than a wife!! HELP!!! I have a job offer in TX (i live in PA) and i can be around friends and improve the quality of mine and my childs life!!!

Go get yourself a divorce, and file for custody and child support. The courts are usually behind a woman who wants the best for her child. If he's a truck driver and on the road a lot, I have a feeling everything will go in your favor. Just remember, get yourself a decent lawyer, one who works in your county and knows the judges in the courthouse. Most importantly, do not slander your soon to be ex- husband, be calm, cool and act intelligently. Sounds like he has an anger management problem... you will not have to tell anyone but your own lawyer, chances are he will become angry in court and he'll be his own worst enemy.

hey everyone feeing really low today actually been for a while now, advice?

I am 28 years old, and the first time I was dignosed with depression was, 15 years ago, depression is a hard thing to overcome, sometimes you think you have, and all of a sudden you are down again, in my case, I have to live with it, and the medications, and the psychiatrist and the psychologist, in your case, well I think is just a bad time you can overcome by communicating with your partner. Good luck.

Writing a script to fill your drive is a waste, why not write 1 to remove all the files first, then overwrite, then finish with another format, it'd actually be an intresting project to work on, i've noticed that most of the proven wipers, just use 1 and 0's, if you could write 1 to use a completly random string, and repeat it, over and over, atleast 7 times, it'd probably work better.

A couple of weeks ago I found a website that could analyze a piece of text and predict whether the author was male or female. Does anyone know the web address of this website?

i was just wondering whether its safe to meet someone you meet online? even though you may have seen them on a cam.

if your feeling a bit apprehensive but would still like to me them, make sure you bring a friend along or meet in a public place like a restaurant or cafe. you could even get a friend to ring you at a certain time so that if things are not going well you can get out of the situation. always make sure  someone you know, knows where you are going to be. you can never be too careful with someone you dont know well. good luck...


Assuming that ice glaciers melting ec. would lead to sea levels rising...or maybe i'm just not clued up on the issue...

One word:  COST.  Just to dredge a couple of feet worth of silt in a large riverbed can cost in the hundreds of millions (See Hudson river dredging).  And then moving all the silt can cost a few more, especially since your plan supposes that the silt be carried quite a distance inland to achieve the desired effect.  Who's going to pay for that?  Which government(s), and whose tax dollars?


most of my friends are girls, and out of them, most of the female friends follow me around and talk to me a lot...im confused...i dont even kno if im physically attractive...but ppl that have liked me say so

Time to stop being a little boy and man up. The ladies are falling on their knees for you bro, unzip already!

Where's the flaw here? I know that it breaks some sort of rule in as much as it assigns two values to the variable, but it's kinda convincing at the same time...\n\nx = 0.9999....\n10x = 9.9999....\n10x - x = 9.9999.... - 0.9999....\n9x = 9\nx = 1\n\n0.9999.... = 1

There is no flaw as long as you recognize that .99999 repeats forever.  If you were to end it at some point and subtract, then as a previous poster said, you'd actually get 8.99....1.  But since it repeats, there is always another 9 and so it works.\n\nAnd consider this - if .9999999repeating did NOT equal 1, then there would be another number between them.  What would that number be?\n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\nNo, the number in question is not infinitessimal, it doesn't exist.  You can never get to the end of the string of nines to try and squeeze another number in there :)


My sister and I were not born in Australia and when our parents were Naturalized as Australian Citizens my  sister and I being  under the age of 16 years we were automaticly Naturalized on Dads Certificate. Rather than constantly having to get the original certificate off Mum (as Dad has passed away) we would like a certificate of our own that is accepted by all the Government Departments ad associated Agencies, i.e.,ATO, Passport, Centrelink, VicRoads etc. as all there departments and others always ask for proof of residence and the only proof of residence they will except is Dads Original Naturalization Certificate. Even my discharge papers are not sufficient. Any assistance would be appreciated, Thank you.

Do you think there should be a tax credit on servers since some people believe in tipping and some don't. Since there is no law that requires them to tip. I know some people are excellent at tipping. But some don't believe in it. And that is their right. So maybe a good solution would be to provide a tax credit for servers somewhat like earned income credit.

Yes. All tips should be 100% tax free. Individual people paying other individual people for private services have already paid taxes on that money a dozen times over.


He slammes the locker door on my heaf, drops his books on me, and when i tell him to stop he says"Me no speaky da english"  then he leaves and talks to his friends(in english).  The teachers refuse to do anything, what  should i do???

I would talk to the principle and ask her/him to have your locker switched.  Just avoid the jerk!  It's makes no sense to comfront him with a teacher, because it usually makes matters worse.  You don't want him or his friends to call you names like, "tattle-tale" or "snitch".  Boys can be really cruel and immature.  Best to just get away from him.


guys if you see a girl sitting along in the park what will you do.

i would say hi to her and if she seems nice i would try to get to know her


I need as much info on this as possible. Thanks much.

The Chernobyl accident occurred on April 26, 1986 at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Pripyat, Ukraine (then part of the Soviet Union). It is regarded as the worst accident in the history of nuclear power. Because there was no containment building, a plume of radioactive fallout drifted over parts of the western Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, UK, and the eastern United States. Large areas of Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia were badly contaminated, resulting in the evacuation and resettlement of roughly 200,000 people. About 60% of the radioactive fallout landed in Belarus.


This question is targeted towards the males....do you guys like that emaciated, super skinny look for a woman or a more voluptuous look?

yeah,sure I like skinny girls,except when they have big feet or too edgy bone structure


They say cheese head thing and smile a lot.


i have stopped drinking pop but do i need to stop drinking coffee too, decay? staining? cavities?

Coffee could cause extrinsic stains on your teeth.  Also, if you use sugar in your creamer, that's just as bad as drinking pop.


i want to name my site it is all about fun stuff with cool fun things in it


For an instance, if you could see into the future... and there is this person commiting sexual immorality here and there and it happened that in reality you already developed a feeling or care about that person...what will you do when you cross paths one day....will you avoid him or will you still be interested? The choice is yours but the warning came out that it will happen. What will you do?

The key here is how you said immorality.  Not a little more open minded than you or less inhibited,  but immoral.  I don't like people that have no morals, they remind  me of goats in heat and about as attractive.  Be very careful, you said yourself its  a warning.Common sense isn't a lot of fun until you maybe realize it could have saved you a lifetime of heartache maybe!  Hope you meet someone with standards that you deserve.!

Becoming deaf and blind is a fearful concept to me. Loosing both of those senses would be very difficult to overcome.


There is all sorts of conflicting data on this one, but here are a few sites with some info on studies:\n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/141891.stm\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/23/1728_57309\nhttp://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_4_2X_What_are_the_risk_factors_for_lung_cancer_26.asp\n\nI tend to lean toward the yes side, I just can't picture smoking being ok for the lungs, and the smoke does have carcinogens in it.


Which is your personal favourite and why?\n\nMine is Orion, simply because it is so easily recognizable in my night sky. I always look for it when I'm outdoors on a clear night and I never fail to gaze upon it with wonder.

yes also orion for winter... it is beautiful and easy to find. \n\n i enjoy watching the skies.  there's a dark sky here, so i can see things many people might not be able to.  every once in a while, i'm blessed to see a meteor shower or a display of the northern lights... it's ungodly.\n\ni also enjoy the changing night sky throughout the seasons... the big dipper and bootes in spring, the northern cross in summer, and pegasus in fall (which means orion's on his way back soon).  whatever else changes in life, these will always remain constant... and that is why i appreciate them.

Please suggest regarding this. I have seen people worried about decreasing weight, but what if one need to increase his body weight and in a short preriod. Please help! Do I need medical?

To increase your weight you can eat lots of healthy snacks throughout the day and also workout 2x -3x per week doing strength training. I would recommend high protein and high calories healthy snacks such as chicken minus skin, lean beef and turkey minus skin. Fit in some different kinds of nuts and peanut butter throughout the day with whole-wheat breads as well. \nYou can read healthy alternatives at www.caloriesperhour.com and they have a section on the forums where they talk about gaining weight =).\nI would also recommend talking to a doctor about your weight decrease as it might be something physical. \n\nGood luck to you!


Even one tiny sip, my cheeks turn all red and I start sweating like crazy. It has happened to me since forever and I don't know why?\nIs that weird or does that happen to some other people?

2. Alcohol in low and moderate doses causes a dilation of blood vessels in the skin.\n\nThis is why drinkers sometimes have a flushed face and heavy drinkers a red nose.\n\nAs well as causing the skin to turn pink, alcohol also makes the skin feel warm, which is why one of its traditional uses has been to treat people who have been exposed to the cold. Brandy especially is supposed to warm the body.\n\n\n\nP.S. The flushing of the sking and sweating does NOT indicate an allergy to alcohol.  These are not even symptoms typical of an allergic reaction.

A friend of mine has custody of his 16 year old son, but now his ex is saying he isn't the father, so he wants to get some official results.

If he wants official results of whether or not he is the boy's biological father then a paternity test will need to be done.  It's a simple procedure... they simple swab the inside of your mouth with a q-tip and will do the same with his.  It just takes a while for the results to come back.

If God will put away Satan & co. eventually, why the delay  then w/c only gave Satan a chance to tempt Eve that resulted to man's fall from grace? Is it the same with parents who let harmful things like matches, sharp objects, lying around that their kids might get tempted to play with such and endanger themselves?

Its a metaphorical story taken from even older texts.  If you read your Bible, it states that the serpent tempted Eve and not Satan.


Hello,\n\nShe is a person who has some psychic problems..She did something else unconsciously that hurted her friends very much..But they dont know she is havin a problem like this and she is ill.She can't tell abt it to her friends too because that matter is very confidential..Now she is alone and she lost all her dear ones..What should she do now??

She should start by understanding that there’s nothing bad about being ill, no matter what the illness is. She cannot expect people to understand something they do not know. She has to let people who are close friends know about her problem and then they will understand where she’s coming from. If they are true friends they will stand by her. But she has to start being a true friend herself and tell those who are her friends about her problems, if she does not trust them enough then there’s no point in trying to make friends with them.


Who said this. State the inner meaning.\n\n:My daughter need the answer now. If someone can write for her :)

the "these are wounds of love" is imply the crusifiction (I can't spell, sorry) of Christ, in which he died for our sins, and therefore the wounds are that of the love he felt for Gods people...or twist that around so it makes sense :)

Is it illegal to have more than 1 wife in the United States?

If a man is legally married to one woman and marries another, the second marriage is considered void and will not be recognized as a valid marriage in any state. The practice is also illegal in many states.


I am going to my sisters in florida and she wil be taking me to 2 marlins games,I ahve never been before,should i wear their colors or buy a jersey?

I think the first question would be, Are you a Marlins fan? If you truely are a fan of that team and would wear the jersey in support of that team, then go ahead and get one and wear it proudly to the game.\nBut if you're just going to the game to see the game, don't worry about it. There will be lots of people dressed in all team apparel, but there will be lots more just wearing regular clothes. You'll fit in fine no matter what you wear.\nAnd remember to have fun, I still remember my first MLB game and have been to a lot more since.


Without avoiding chicken?\nI take Virlix and Claritin every two days for 5 years already

Once the immune system has been 'activated' against a specific antigen (chicken) it retains 'memory' of the antigen and will attack it whenever it is present.  So, until science figures out how to reprogram immunological memory, all you can do is avoid the chicken.\n\nBest wishes.

Hello,does anyone know how i can teach my five-year-old sister how to read?Currently,i put words on indx cards and\nshe makes a sentence.She does really good and i think she is getting pretty bored doing it.Any new ideas?Thanks very much!

Are you home schooling her? If so, I have provided some links with some ideas that may help her?\n\nIf not, you should speak with her teachers to see how your activities at home can help their activities at school. Reading her stories at night and then having her read them is a good idea.


I mean they are nonstop askin questions and most of the questions we don't even know the answers to! so if you don't know the answer do u tell them you don't know or do you lie to them? and why do they ask so many questions anyway????

I dont have kids of my own but I have a lot of children in my life.\n\nIn the age we live in of computers and video games that dont encourage kids to think and problem solve, i welcome when kids ask me questions.\n\nIt shows that the child is alive, awake, alert and aware, it also shows that the child has intelligence and needs to be stimualted and challenged in a godly way.\n\nFind out what the child interst is do they like to paint with colors, read books with or without pictures, do they like to make crafts like model trains or airplanes or make jewelery and accesories, the reason I ask this is that children who ask a lot of questions are often willing to try new things and explore different areas making them very confident with a healthy self esteem.\n\nI am saddened that techonology has made our children very introverted and not socailize and this is not always the case I do realize that.\n\nBe thankful your child does ask questions because if you dont ask you dont learn and if you dont learn you dont grow and if you dont grow you cant be a productive and healthy adult.


Do you think spirits or ghost are real or are they only real if you believe they are? Did you ever see or deal with one? If so, please tell me.

The words we use can be quite controversial.  "Spirits" for many can be a frightening term.  The reality is real, yes.  But because of the prevelant belief in evil as a power, as an intelligence, many unpleasant things occur.  Belief is power; it is how we make the world that we've been taught to think just "happens" to us.  \n\nBut in truth, only God exists.  No evil, no darkness, just God, and God's Beloved (us).  Everything is Spirit, and Spirit is everything.


Disneyland is a business that caters to people and families. They set the standard and are good at it. "Supporting" them by attending one of their parks is a matter of choice.

everytime i try to sign in to the yahoo messenger, it generates error and windows closes it (yahoo messenger has generate error and it need to close...). on second attempt it works okay, and this happens everyday. what can be the cause?

I am living in an apartment and would like to buy a home.

The standard downpayment used to be 20 percent of the purchase cost.  Times have changed dramatically.  I know NUMEROUS people who have bought homes with 0-5 percent down in the last  10 years, especially since interest rates plummeted around 2001-2002.  \n\nI just purchased a home in 2004, and we were required to put a downpayment of roughly 5% of the purchase cost. We were able to get a conventional interest rate of 5.5% at the time. Our mortgage payments have been very manageable. If you are concerned about building equity faster or saving on interest, you can always pay a little extra each month (a little goes a LONG way).  We've payed an extra $100/mo., and we've knocked 6 months off the life of our loan so far, which is huge.\n\nThese days, many, many lenders have 95-100% LTV (loan-to-value) loan programs for first-time buyers (THAT is key). You should call banks and mortage brokers in your area and ASK them if they have any 95-100% LTV loan programs, and ask what you need to qualify (there might be income restrictions, in my case there weren't any).  It's true that if you put less than 20% down, you have to pay PMI (basically mortgage insurance), but I believe the majority of new homebuyers today pay that.  It seems fairly standard.  The BEST part is that PMI is NOT permanent.  You can have your PMI payments stopped after you accumulate 22% equity in your home (which should only take a few years between your home appreciating in value, plus you making payments decreasing the amount you owe).  If you go this route, there are MILLIONS who have gone it with you, and some of us (me, included), don't regret it one bit.\n\nGetting an FHA loan is sometimes easier because your loan is guaranteed by the federal government, but they have limits on how much you can borrow. Before I ever applied for anything, I pulled my own credit report from MyFico.com, and made an appt. with a local bank rep to discuss my options. \n\nThere are three big things to prepare before you shop for a loan:\n\n1.  Make sure your credit is as clean as possible (that means do NOT open any new credit right before or during your lending process).\n\n2.  Make sure your debt-to-income ratio is as LOW as possible.  This means that you want to try to make sure you are not spending more than 36% of your income on debts like rent, car, credit cards, etc.  Some lenders might want to see that ratio a LOT lower.\n\n3.  Save for your downpayment PLUS have a little leftover for after you close on the home.  Once you get in there, chances are, you'll need the cash for repairs or to furnish the place.\n\nBest of luck to you!

We see that the country is governed by the Politicians and there are examples that they sometimes took wrong steps which leads to faliur results thus the proper knowledge of the portfolio is essential. In a democratic country if elected leaders will be uneducated then how the country will run.

It will run as poorly as it does now or worse, maybe even better.  Knowledge declared on the portfolio means less then you think.  There are many other factors to concern yourself with when measuring a man.

I have an old Toshiba Satellite Pro 430CDT labtop that i crashed by deleting system files (i think). When I reboot the computer all it says is "INVALID SYSTEM DISK Replace the disk, and then press any key", press all the keys you want it keeps saying the same thing. I would like to give it to my friends little son to play/learn with. How do i reboot the computer or reinstall the entire system or are there any sites i can go to in order to get the proper software to download that will fix this problem?

Reinstall Windows, it sounds like it's all you can do in this particular situation. Find the Windows disk and use it.

My husband and I have 2 small business that we need to file a schedule C-EZ.  Is it better to make them seperate business or file as one?  They are very similar businesses. Both have very few deductions.  Any help would be great!Thank you!

If they are separate businesses each one needs to be but on its own schedule C. What kind of business and what kind of deductions? You might be missing some. Anything that you use or have because of that business is deductible.

I've read of studies that show that people who continue to learn new things and are active readers well into their golden years have far less occurences of succumbing to Alzheimers or dementia. Knowing that, why shouldn't people continue to learn as long as their minds have the potential to do so? I never liked the saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" because it just isn't true. I guess some people approach learning new subjects with trepidation when they should see it as a necessity in keeping their minds functioning and active.

Yes, it should and I can firmly say that.\n\n1st of all, it is a natural law that when a body/system is not used or trained, it will degrade with time-- evolution theory, disabled people body proportion, etc. Same thing as our brain. The better it works, the better the rest of the system should work. Mind & Body spirit!\n\nNot only to keep our mind healthy, but i believe by lifelong pursuit of education, one would be more knowledgeable, have more experiences, challenged mentally... therefore life will be more meaningful.\n\nAlso, seeing what's happening around us as a term of education could be considered in this issue as well. Nature is our greatest teacher. Environment, community, experiences can all be media to educate ourselves.\n\n\nCheers\n\n*tika*


i run a decoration outfit from home and had not been able to reach many people or even sale enough items.what am i doing wrong.

Do you have a website, if not you should look into getting on and outting photos of your decoration online? A catalog to send to anyone that inquires after your work? what methods have you been using for marketing your business?  I am recommending a marketing book by Shel Horowitz as well as some articles I believe will be of help.  Another thing I suggest is to visit SCORE.org.  There you can search for a score counselor that has experience in the field of Decor and set up an appointment at your local chapter or simply communicate via email.  It is a free service as it's run by retired executives and business owners.\n\nGood luck


If my grandma was being filed on my mother taxes for about 30 years but my grandma's common law husband said he wants to file her can he do it?

whoever she lived with or paid for her care and support gets to do it.


i know a little but i donnu if it was right!

The best thing is to wait until you're married. Okay, enough on the parent speech. The most importantthing about sex is to learn what makes your partner happy. It changes from person to person so its not about what you know, its more about what you're willing to do in conjunction with what your personal likes are.
