im student from cebu scred heart college,college of nursing,im serious to my study being a nursing.

That's a rather broad question...  You would probably have to specify it a little more to get the answer you are looking for.  But that said, there are numerous reasons as to why animal cells may develop an "abnormal" morphology.  Basically, there are perhaps two categories that can roughly be differentiated, even though - again - you have to be careful there.  One would be genetic reasons, another would be environmental reasons.  Genetic causes could be numerous as well, but take certain cancers for example, that have a genetic predisposition.  Certain environmental toxins can likewise lead to malformation of cells.  Please note that I was talking of a genetic "predisposition".  Often in case of cancer ebnvironmental and genetic effects are both responsible for the adverse effects observed.  So, the two categories are not ontological absolutes.  \n\nPerhaps what would help you to envision the problem is the basics.  First, cells divide mitotically in unicellular organisms.  consequently, a central question would be the default state of the cell.  There are three possibilities: (a) quiescence (i.e., the cell does not divide and needs an initiation of the mitotic process), (b) proliferation (i.e., cells default state is division and it needs particular factors to asure quiesence as needed in many multicellular organs), and (c) neither, since cell division is contextual.  The most common assumption in biology (and cancer biology, for that matter) is (a).  (b) has been suggested by  Carlos Sonnenschein and Ana Soto ("The Society of Cells. Cancer and Control of Cell Proliferation." New York: Springer, 1999).  Personally, I tend towards (c).  \n\nSecond, cells that proliferate during organogenesis have to further differentiate into the morphology and functionality they are to have in a specific organ.  \n\nThird, certain organs have cells that proliferate, whereas other organs don't.  Consequently, once everything goes well intially in organs of the second type, malformation may not occur as easily.  However, that said there are of course cancers of organs that normally do not have proliferating cells.  \n\nThese three basics may help you to ask your question a little more specifically and then seek out the literature that could give you answers accordingly.\n\nFinally, just remember that what is considered normal in science is the mean of a population.  But what determines this mean is often unclear.  I am thinking here for example of norms of reaction where cells may be shaped quite differently in response to environmental factors, and yet function wonderfully - in fact just exactly as they should given the particular environment.  Now, what is "deformed" would have to be probably understood functionally (i.e., a morphology associated with a functional break down).  And it seems to me that this is what you are looking for anyway.\n\nHope this helps.


Mornings for me, right before my shower. WOW

Depends on the situation and if we can get away from the kids for 10 minutes.


Many congressmen corruptly and convertly take money and other favours from corporate lobbyists, who, in effect, write and/or buy the laws they want.    \n\nWhy are so few prosecuted?

I would attribute the lack of prosecution to the proposition that cases are chosen by how blatant they are, how easily evidence can be gathered, and how successful the prosecution will be.\n\nThe above could be flavored by the fact that many (if not all) state attorneys are elected, usually running on party tickets.\n\nMost elected officials want to remain in office for as long as possible, so one hand washes the other.


if so then does it mean by sitting in a sauna the pounds would just pop off?

Myth #3: The more you sweat during exercise, the more fat you lose.\n\nFact: The harder you work out, the more calories you'll burn within a given period and thus the more fat you stand to lose. But how much you sweat does not necessarily reflect how hard you're working. Some people tend to sweat profusely due to heavy body weight, poor conditioning, or heredity. And everyone sweats more in hot, dry weather or dense clothing than in cool, humid weather or porous clothing. (You may feel as if you're sweating more in humid weather; but that's because moist air slows the evaporation of sweat.)\n\nExercising in extremely hot weather or in a plastic "weight loss" suit will indeed make you sweat heavily and lose weight immediately. But that lost weight is almost entirely water; the pounds will return when you replenish your fluids by drinking after the workout. Further, you could develop heat exhaustion if you push yourself too hard in extreme heat or in plastic clothes. which prevent sweat from evaporating and, in turn, cooling you off.


he spends money daily that we dont have he lies constantaly and is always conning some way to get these pills if hes run out of money we fight just about everyday i just need some advice from some 1 that is or has been in my shoes or just noes the lifestyle of being addicted

We got out for spring break a week ago from last friday (so like 9 days ago).. I emailed her that sunday at around 10:30.. no reply until tonight (sunday) at around 10:15.. is that weird, or bad in a way? like maybe she put it off until the last minute so I wouldn't reply or something.. I donno\n\nI'm 23, and we're in a class together at college

Maybe she was doing homework and has priorities which include good grades and not letting personal relationships affect her schoolwork...Maybe she left school and just checked her email tonight when she got back...you need to relax anyway, it's not that serious.  I hope you didn't spend your entire vacation waiting on an email....


I live outside of the state of NY but have a landlord that collects rent and do repairs I have a written contract with him. Is he able to go to court to file eviction papers on my tenants without me being present in the state of NY the city of Rochester.

I'm assuming that you mean that you are the landlord and the guy collecting rents and doing the repairs is your property manager.  If that's the case, then of course he can file eviction papers against your tenants.  \n\nThat's one of the reasons that you would hire a property manager in the first place.  It's much easier for him to file eviction proceedings locally than it would be for you to travel to New York to do so.  He would file the eviction as your agent.


we use this because calculus is a core subject based upon integrals and integration and in most part of engineering we use its rules and techiques

Truth be told in my experience most engineers don't use calculus very often.  An understanding of calculus is required to find derivations for most formulas that are used.  But in practical application most problems are solved making assumption that simplfy problems to simple algebra.  One application used in practice is definte intergration ussually using a spreadsheet.

Is it wrong to have strong feeling for your b-friend but, not want to be in a relationship with that person.  But, still want them to be living with you and as friend?

No it is not wrong to feel that way.  Sometimes it is better to do the whole friends with benefits type of thing.  One of my ex's and I did the friends with benefits bit and when we moved on to other relationships we were able to keep the friendship.  It is nice having a guy to talk to about anything, that you know will understand b/c he is your best friend.  I think it is more important to have a best friend than a boyfriend.  It sounds like this guy is your best friend and sometimes when you move from friends to lovers you lose the friend.  So doing the friend thing would be safer but if your feelings are really strong then go for it and if it does not work out hopefully you can still be friends.


Does anybody know if the tour dates for the red hot chili peppers announced on the oficial site the final ones because they practically only mention california

I really would have helped if i could but it seems that no matter how hard i try , i just can not.


I am having difficulty finding a reclining chair/couch that is designed for hypnotherapy use, as oppose to massage (of which there seems to be an abundance available)!  Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks.

Check EBAY first, they seem to have everything. If this doesn't work, put an ad in your local paper and maybe someone will have one. It's worth a shot, I'm sure buying one new would be expensive. Good luck!


Corporate capitalism born in america ,PT Barnum an aAMerican said "A sucker is born every minute" America is full of crooks, (the land of the free, puahh) try taking some responsibylity

We still vote in the USA we are not a dictatorship. We also have a president that is willing (no matter what kind of crap is thrown his way) to stand up for our democracy and others. Think about not being able to leave the country, have any control over who you work for, or be able to vote.


The Mangrove is a tree found in swamps which can withstand a lot of salt

There is nothing like biggest mangrove tree as all the mangrove plants are shrubby trees of medium to small size.\n More over they grow very close together forming mangrove vegetation.\n The largest spread such a vegetation is in India on the eastern coast near West Bengal. It is called Sunder bans,


i don't think so. even though he "acted" gay in some of the stuff he did doesn't mean he's gay. all it shows is that he's a great actor. if you see him in another movie or a video you could tell he isn't gay. and if he was, it'd be shame because he is so CUTE!!!

HAHA~ Good question, me and my friends were wondering about that too. Well, no, his character is questioning, but I know--I'm pretty sure--Lucas IS NOT. :)

Ive paid $14 a year for several years, and spent countless hours of time composing the Greetings, and sending to distant dear friends, along with heartfelt messages. But Im now told by a distant friend, finally, that the Greetings, when received, cannot be opened (they tried clicking on several things), and are nothing but solicitations for the receiver  to join the Greetings membership. This is EXCEPTIONALLY disappointing to me. I cant imagine I have wasted all this time and money only to lose it all and create hardfeelings. Ive always been given the impression that all the Greetings were rcvd, and even got an email notifying me when the Greeting was picked up, and copies Ive rcvd had an obvious link that directed me imediately to the Greeting and message. Any ideas as to what I should do now, other than apologize to all the people Ive wasted my time on for several years? To be fair, I should say that the person who reported this to me receives their email thru Web-TV, could that.....

why bother? they're not very good anyway


For me I think it will be the Detroit Redwings!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Red Wings.\n\nI'm a Eastern Conference guy though, so I'm rooting for the Senators, although I'm wary of their recent history of playoff disappointments.


That team has won it 5 times it's not in Asia Africa Or North America

Brazil has won it 5 times, 1952 ,1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002\n\nBrazil vs Sweden 5-2 in 1952 host was Sweden \nBrazil vs Czechoslovakia 3-1 in 1962 host was Chile\nBrazil vs Italy 4-1 in 1970 host was Mexico \nBrazil vs Italy 0-0 after normal time penalties 3-2 in 1994 host was USA\nBrasil vs Germany 2-0 in 2002 host was Korea and Japan


Im 13, a girl, and have a PS2. xP\nAnyway, I really am into games like The Sims, (Simulation and Role-Play), Adventure-cartoon (Crash Bandicoot and Spyro), and really dorky girly games (Mary-kate and ashley's Sweet Sixteen, LOL, and Bratz: Rock Angelz, rofl!)

I have to back up the first answerer with the Ratchet and Clank games.  Ratchet 1 is good, Ratchet 2 is excellent and Ratchet 3 is very good.  I played the latest Ratchet game (no. 4) on a demo disk and was very disappointed so I haven't bought it.\n\nAlso I have to highly recommend the Jak and Daxter games.  All of them are very good, but 3 is the best!\n\nI am currently playing Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy, and that's proving to be a good game as well.


I'm graduating from high school in June and planning on going to a 4 year college in the fall for nursing.  However I have to take general classes before applying to the nursing school and getting into the school is very competitive.  Science and math have always been my weak areas, but I want a career in nursing badly enough that I'm willing to take all the science classes that are required.  I already feel like getting into nursing school is kind of a lost but I don't want to give up before I've even started.  I'm looking for any advice or encouragement from people who have been there??

Don't give up, college is there to educate you and they will do whatever they can to help you succeed.  There will be tutoring, and they even offer it free.  All nursing schools are competitive, but even if you can't get in right away, you can take classes that will go towards your degree while you are waiting to get in.  Another idea is to go the LPN route which is a bit easier, and after you have your LPN, you can always go back for your RN.  Best of luck to you and whatever you do, do NOT give up!!!


Do colleges see your individual term grades or your year grades. I am in Advanced Pre-Calculus and for the first two terms I got an 89 and an 86, but this term I think I am going to get a 76 or so, is that a big deal?

Get a copy of your transcript, that is exactly what the colleges will see.


It was a environmental disaster, probably the worst ever caused by an oil spill. Thousands of animals died including sea birds, otters, seals, bald eagles, orcas, salmon, and herring. Also, there was severe ocean and soil oil contamination.


Maybe I haven't watched the Weather Channel everyday for the past two weeks but where is Jim Cantore? I thought that he would surely be covering all the storms that have taken place across the country.

Jim is working on a new series for The Weather Channel that is due this summer. You can still see him on Storm Stories.


there is this guy who i like,he's my friend, and he asks me to hang out and tells me he wants to teach me how to play soccer, and he mumbles when ever i talk to him, yet he says if he liked a girl, he would come right out and say it. is he lieing?\n\n\nps.we are in high school.

I think he might like u...wait and see for more signs from him.

i live in kennett missouri and surrounding areas like tenn. ans arkansas basicly southeastern mo and surounding areas and i am looking for pictures and info on the f3 tornad that sunday night it did quiet a bit of damage

Sometimes what I do when I am looking for something in a city or region that I don't know much about I type in the city and state on Yahoo.com or I go to newspapers.com and try to find the cities newspaper. Or try to go to the Weather Channel. They usually have top stories on the weather. Or yet another thing you can try is to find the local news stations websites. I know that this may not have been what you were looking for but it is a start.


does that mean for every good thing we do, someone else does something bad?

Newton was talking about physical actions. Of course a lot of people believe in Karma...


Hubby diagnosed with diabetes, not sure how bad yet, but on meds, I've already been watching food for his heart, less fats, more fruit, but now he can't even eat that or potatoes, or pasta or rice, or bread, he's a meat and potatoe guy so i have no clue what to feed him now, any suggestions?

Good question.  This is not a pleasant situation, because food really effects our short-term mood.  I suspect that the recent diagnosis has also not been good for the mood.  \n\nSome things I like that I know are healthy:\n\nSalsa  (the problem with salsa is the chips, sour cream and cheese that often accompany it.)\nGreen Beans\nBlack beans  (give me the full feeling)\nPinto beans   (give me the full feeling)\nEdamame - I normally would loathe any kind of soy bean.  But, these are delicious and refreshing.  I get a big bag at Costco in the frozen foods.\nBaby carrots\nSnap peas\n\nSometimes new spices can put the "interesting" back in food.  I recently blogged on some diabetic recipies from the Saturday Evening Post at:\n\nhttp://mydiabetesinformation.com/index.php?p=14\n\nHowever, I am just getting into blogging about diabetes.  This is a good challenge.  Food is such a part of life and identity.  Changing it dramatically is similar to uprooting a family and moving to an unfamiliar city.  It is hard, but will get better every day.


I don't know what are the uses of metalloids. Could you please reply me?

Together with the metals and nonmetals, the metalloids (in Greek metallon = metal and eidos = sort - also called semimetals) form one of the three categories of chemical elements as classified by ionization and bonding properties. They have properties intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals. There is no unique way of distinguishing a metalloid from a true metal but the most common is that metalloids are usually semiconductors rather than conductors.\n\nThe known metalloids (and their atomic symbols) are:\n\nBoron (B) \nSilicon (Si) \nGermanium (Ge) \nArsenic (As) \nAntimony (Sb) \nTellurium (Te) \nPolonium (Po) \nAstatine (At) \nIn the periodic table, metalloids occur along the diagonal line from boron to polonium. Elements to the upper right of this line are nonmetals; elements to the lower left are metals.\n\nSemi-metallic behaviour is not confined to the elements, but is also found in alloys and compounds. Mercury (II) telluride is one example.\n\nOne definition of semi-metallic behavior would be if the conduction band and valence band overlap. This is also true of metals, so semi-metals must additionally have a relatively low carrier density.


I am only 30 yrs old. have attempted suicide twice in my life. Also have almost constant pain in stomach due to long-term anxiety, depression and stress. Also have chronic pain in rt shoulder and rt knee. Also have SEVERE headaches due to facial neuralgia. I have been to multiple psychiatrists, psychotherapists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, homeopaths, herbalists, acupuncturists, Reiki healers, Bio-energy healers etc etc but with little benefit.  Currently using a new allopathic medicine for the depression and headaches. It seems to work atleast partially.  also getting counselling/psychotherapy with some benefit.  I have lost my lovely fiance due to my illness. Tried to marry again but the girl's parents refused to give their daughter to a mentally sick man. It has also destroyed my once-great career. My psychiatrist is not very optimistic about me.  It is very difficult to live with this constant physical and mental pain.Is there any HOPE for me? Or is Suicide the only answer???

Hi Bob.\nI'm sorry for all the problems you've had.  I can make a suggestion but you might not be ready to hear it.\nYour question is "Can anyone cure me?"--so you want the work taken away from you.  No matter what the illness is, or who you turn to for help, you have to take responsibility for your own healing. The question is, "Can you help me heal myself?"  Any healing takes work and dedication.  If you have a headache, no one's going to walk up to you and hand you an aspirin.  You have to say, "Hey, anyone got an aspirin I can have?" That's vocalizing your need.\nIf inside your belief is that healing is from an outside source that has nothing to do with you, it's not going to happen.  It requires your participation.  And not going to someone and saying "Can you fix me?"  It's not about someone else fixing you. You aren't a car with a bad carburetor.  It's about saying, "I'm in mental and physical pain and I need help.  What can I do, what can WE do, to help me overcome this pain?"  Do you see the difference? It's HUGE change in thinking.\nIt also sounds like you are fighting very hard against your illnesses, and fighting causes stress, and stress will make you feel worse.\nIf you go around saying "Look at me, I'm mentally ill" people will treat you accordingly.  I see this with my own father. He has Alzheimer's.   Sometimes he tries to get into a discussion with strangers because he's still a friendly guy, and they'll look at him a little funny because he can't talk correctly anymore. Once I explain his condition people's demeanor toward my dad totally change.  A woman who had been looking at my dad as if he was some kind of stupid idiot when he didn't move out of the way of a moving vehicle, took his arm very nicely and called him "dear" after I explained.  My point isn't that you have Alzheimer's (you're way too young) but that people's perceptions of you, and therefore how they treat you, comes from what they are TOLD about you.\nI have been through lots of therapy myself and I also do healing work and I'm giving you my perspective.  \nI hope that you find the help you need and that you are able to become whole once again.  I also hope that you do not choose suicide. Not because I think it's wrong, but because I think your problems can be overcome.


I was listing to the radio the other the day and hear one of her songs. I didn't know who she was at first because they had said thats oh girl from Destiny's Child. So I was think that it was the new girl Michelle Williams. But when I got home I had looked up the old two girls and it was Letoya song that I had hear on the radio. I know long time ago that they were going to have a cd come out. But anyway if you have hear any of her song I would like to know what did you think about the cd or song and which one did you like. I like the song call NO MORE.

yes I hear the on the radio and at first I didn't like it but now I do but I haven't hear anything else but that one song.


This would be a purchase to live in, not simply an investment.

I have owned both.\n\nMy first home was a condo in Ca.  It was less expensive then a single family residence and I was able to purchase it for less down and ability to qualify.  It gave me time to gain equity through appreciation, ultimately sell to purchase a single family residence.\n\nThe con side would be lack of control.  The homeowners dues increased.  A vote was taken on a special assessment I did not agree with but had to pay anyway.  Noisy neighbors & a legal battle with the developer which was very costly to every owner in the project.\n\nThe positive side as stated above was the ability to get a start.\n\nThe positive side of owning a single family residence is pretty obvious. Complete ownership of both land and home.(with a condo you own your unit and a % of the common areas)\nAbility to landscape using your own creativity.  Unless there are master CC&R's for the neighborhood you have control about exterior color. And typically a single family residence will appreciate at a faster pace than a condominium.  Plus more privacy from neighbors.\n\nThe con side would be constant yard maintance. Yes, that too can grow old.  Responsible for exterior dweling maintance(roof,paint,etc).  Basically responsible for everything having to do with homeownership.  No short cuts here.

what is the best fruit that helps better liver function

Schisandra (Magnolia Vine) is a genus of shrub commonly grown in gardens. It is a hardy deciduous climber which thrives in virtually any soil; its preferred position is on a sheltered shady wall. It may be propagated by taking cuttings of half-matured shoots in August.\n\nSpecies include S. chinensis, S. glaucescens, and S. rubrifolia.\n\nIt is native to East Asia and its dried fruit is used medicinally. The berries of Schisandra chinensis are given the name wuweizi (???) in Chinese, which translates as "five flavor fruit," due to the fact that they possess all five basic flavors: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. In traditional Chinese medicine it is used as a remedy for many ailments: to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst.\n\n-From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizandra\n---------------------\n\nSchizandra (Fruit)\n\nThe applicable part of schisandra is the fruit and is often referred to as an adaptogen. It improves liver function, increases concentration, coordination, respiratory function, and endurance. It is also has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tussive, anti-convulsant, anti-depressant, anti-fatigue, tranquilizing, and a decrease in bleeding properties.\n\nSchisandra is often used to reduce fatigue, improve work performance, and build strength. Some people claim that it improves libido in women and staying power in men. \n\n-From http://lifenutrientsusa.com/glossary482.html

Celexa is the drug.  Taken for over 7 years. Do doctors even know how long drugs like this can be taken without losing their ability to regulate seratonin?  On low dose for 5 years (20ml) and seemed just fine. Now having occasional days that feel like the "D" is coming back.

I don't know about Celexa specifically, but many drugs do become less effective over time as you build up tolerance to them.  However, if the drug has been working consistently for seven years it is unlikely that it would spontaneously stop.  More likely, something else has changed that is making you feel somewhat depressed.  Maybe you're stressed out about something, or there's some other reason you might be feeling kind of bad.  However, you should talk to your doctor rather than posting here on Answers cause even if we sound like we know what we're talking about most of us actually don't.

compare in nickels 8 dimes to 12 quarters? the ratio of $24 in 144 minutes in lowest terms? compare in nickels; 15 dimes to 8 quarters?

since two nickels equal a dime multiply 8 by 2 and you get 16 nickels and since five nickels equals one quarter multiply 5*12 to get 60 nickels so the ratio is 4:15


k so can u tell me something that can help...i dont wanna take any medicine and i know i can take a hot bath and exercise and use a heating pad. what else can i do?

Almost all women have some cramping during their periods, classified as either primary dysmenorrhea (which refers to "normal" menstrual pain) or secondary dysmenorrhea (which is a result of an underlying disease or disorder).\n\n"Normal" cramps occur in almost all women due to the release of prostaglandins, which are hormones produced by the endometrium (the lining of the uterus). Prostaglandins cause the uterus to contract (sometimes quite painfully) in order to expel the menstrual debris (and henceforth, start the period). Some women produce higher levels of prostaglandins than others, so they may hurt more. \n\nHOWEVER, killer cramps are NOT normal and are in most cases due to secondary dysmenorrhea. Most frequently this is because of a disease or disorder like Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, cervical stenosis, structural abnormalities in the vagina or uterus itself, fibroids, etc. If your cramping disables you, see your gyn to talk about options.\n\nI know you said 'no meds,' but non-steroidal inflammatory drugs like aspirin and ibuprofen may help relieve cramping...your doc can also prescribe oral contraceptives that will prevent ovulation and reduce prostaglandin production, thereby alleviating cramping. \n\nUse of heating pads, avoidance of salt, sugar, alcohol and caffeine, intake of vitamin B6, calcium and magnesium supplements, and pelvic massage are all said to be helpful as well. \n\nIt is important to determine if the cramps are "normal," or if they could be due to another cause. Pain that is crippling is never normal and should be investigated ASAP so that appropriate diagnosis and treatment can be rendered. Hope that helps.

Soccer is what the Americans call Football in order to differentiate it from "American Football" which is a completely different game.\n\nFootball is a British invented sport with a huge worldwide following now where two teams of eleven players try to kicj a round ball into the other teams net.\n\nAmerican Football has more in common with Rugby Football where two teams of players run with, carry and throw an egg shaped ball to each other and attempt to touch it down behind the goal or kick it over the goal.\n\nRugby football was invented at Rugby School in England when someone picked up the ball during a normal game of football and ran with it.\n\nThe origins of football are thought to have been in the middle ages when baying crowds would compete to kick the severed head of someone who had been executed around the streets.\n\nNot much has changed in europe!!


would like to know results on national level for each contestant and how soon they are available

You can't - FOX Television does not publish this information.


Why are briefs so unliked in american society?

Mmm, I think because they are associated with little boys, and grown adults find seeing a grown man in tighty whiteys strange, as if they still are little boys.\n\n\nI personally think they look goofy.  I'm Canadian tho lol


Besides, i don't have a special skill, just proficient in a foreign language--english. i am chinese.

On Don Francisco Presente ( TV talk show) they were saying that protestors in LA were carrying only the American flag, to show their respect, and picking up trash on the street to prove that they are not trying to make things worse. Does that change the opinion of any of you?

Yes, but I also think that it'd be better if the world was one mass country. Of cousre, that'll never happen.


my frined went to college and havent found a good job yet? i dont really think u need a "college edu." to get any job!

So you can learn to spell your question correctly! (What's the point in going to college?)\n\nSeriously, your spelling tests were the only tests where you were given all the correct answers ahead of time.  Think about it.\n\nPS - There's even spell check on this thing...

A Swiss foundation and National Geographic magazine are to publish translations of the ancient Coptic text discovered in Egypt in the 1970s.\n\nAlthough the full details have not yet been made public, snippets discussed in academic circles say it will prove Judas was acting at the behest of God when he sold Jesus to the Romans for 30 pieces of silver.\n\nIts publication will raise fears among traditionalists that efforts may be made to rehabilitate a man whose name is synonymous with betrayal.\n\nSympathisers with Judas contend that had Jesus not been crucified, he would not have been subsequently resurrected to save humanity.\n\nThe translator of the Gospel of Judas is Rodolphe Kasser of the University of Geneva, the world's leading Coptic scholar. The torn and tattered papyrus text had been offered to potential buyers in North America and Europe for decades after it was found at al-Minya in Egypt. \n\nIt resurfaced recently as the property of the Maecenas Foundation based in Basle, Switzerland.

3rd or 4th-century document called "The Gospel of Judas" was launched upon an unsuspecting world yesterday by no less a biblical authority than the National Geographic magazine in Washington. Its contents were "explosive", according to Mario Roberty, president of the Swiss foundation which now owns the ancient papyrus manuscript. \n\nSo as the heat faded from the television lights at the press conference, has 2000 years of orthodox Christianity been overturned? Well, not quite. But it was all jolly interesting, for those who love that sort of thing.\n\nHalf of the 62-page codex, written in Coptic script, is devoted to an account of the final days of Jesus Christ written from the viewpoint of the man who has for two millennia been excoriated as Christ's deadly betrayer. The text begins: "The secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot three days before he celebrated Passover..."

there is a pile of 12 identical bricks.  one of the bricks weighs heavier OR lighter than the other 11.  you have a libra balance scale to compare groups of bricks BUT you can only perform 3 comparison weight measurements.  there IS a solution and it is complex.  the solution algorithm MUST be able to determine the odd brick everytime and in every case. it is one of the simplest stated problems and requires no knowledge of advanced math or logic but does require ONE remarkable insight to solve.  i solved the problem without any help but it took me several days.  to date i dont know anyone who has been able to solve this problem that i know.  perhaps some of you out there will be able solve this very interesting puzzle.

I file my taxes electronically (TurboTax) and there is now way to even "create" a 1099-S.

SUMMARY:\n\nYou received a 1099-S Proceeds from Real Estate Transactions and you don't know where to enter it in TurboTax.\n \nINSTRUCTIONS:\n\nTurboTax 2005\n\n   1. Click on Federal Taxes tab at the top of the screen\n   2. Click on the GO Button for Income\n   3. Click on Add for Property Profits\n\n\nYou may also need to upgrade to the deluxe version of Turbotax. I don't think the basic version supports much more than the most basic forms.


What would be a great comeback to that question, without using too many vuglarities.

In the words of ole blue eyes, "I did it myyyyyyyyyyy waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay." which by the way is always the best way to do anything. If that doesn't work try. Yes, I did it your way and as usual it turned out bad as it always does when we do it like you told me to.


What is the main idea of manifest destiny?

(m)\n\nManifest Destiny is a phrase that expressed the belief that the United States had a divinely inspired mission to expand, spreading its form of democracy and freedom. Advocates of Manifest Destiny believed that expansion was not only good, but that it was obvious ("manifest") and inevitable ("destiny"). Originally a political catch phrase of the 19th century, Manifest Destiny eventually became a standard historical term, often used as a synonym for the territorial expansion of the United States across North America towards the Pacific Ocean.\n\nManifest Destiny was always a general notion rather than a specific policy. The term combined a belief in expansionism with other popular ideas of the era, including American exceptionalism, Romantic nationalism, and a belief in the natural superiority of what was then called the "Anglo-Saxon race". While many writers focus primarily upon American expansionism when discussing Manifest Destiny, others see in the term a broader expression of a belief in America's "mission" in the world, which has meant different things to different people over the years. This variety of possible meanings was summed up by Ernest Lee Tuveson, who wrote: "A vast complex of ideas, policies, and actions is comprehended under the phrase 'Manifest Destiny.' They are not, as we should expect, all compatible, nor do they come from any one source."[1]\n\nThe phrase "Manifest Destiny" was first used primarily by Jackson Democrats in the 1840s to promote the annexation of much of what is now the Western United States (the Oregon Territory, the Texas Annexation, and the Mexican Cession). The term was revived in the 1890s, this time with Republican supporters, as a theoretical justification for U.S. expansion outside of North America. The term fell out of usage by U.S. policy makers early in the 20th century, but some commentators believe that aspects of Manifest Destiny, particularly the belief in an American "mission" to promote and defend democracy throughout the world, continued to have an influence on American political ideology.[2]\n\nNote that this article is not a history of the territorial expansion of the United States, nor is it the story of the westward migration of settlers to the American frontier. Manifest Destiny was an explanation or justification for that expansion and westward movement, or, in some interpretations, an ideology or doctrine which helped to promote the process. This article is a history of Manifest Destiny as an idea, and the influence of that idea upon American expansion.


And I sooo love red heads LOL just an observation got tired of reading questions and saw one about redheaded females.

I am looking ahead in the next six months or so to be given radiation treatments to destroy the cancer.  The procedure is quite delicate and I would like to check my doctors track record for this procedure and not from him but from public records but I do not know how to go about this process.  I would be anxious to hear from anyone that does know.  Thanks.

Everyone gets auditted from someone these days so the information will be somewhere out there. Remember that this information has to be carefully interpreted eg some physicians select better cases to treat and may have better outcomes because of this. Ask your doc how many he's done and then just ahve faith. Numbers are just numbers at the end of the day and most people would actually be happier not knowing.\n\nAnd radiotherapy instead of surgery suggests (atleast in the UK) non-curative treatment.\n\nPS If you're friendly with a doctor I'd ask him for personal recommendations, he may even recommend someone if you're not on friendly terms. Remember doctors (should) get a broad level of experience and will have worked with at least a few local urologists/ radiologists. This route is much better than looking for statistics in my opinion


So many things going on in our world that can make a persons head spin. Should we spend time or focus our energy with items such as the 9/11 conspiracy, saving the trees/whales/etc, boycotting companies for supporting non-christian groups,   or any other type of issue that has nothing to do with our own personal salvation?

I'd say yes and no.\n\nYou can't answer all the world's issues.  However, God may want you to help answer one or two issues.  Think of Martin Luther King, Jr., for example.  A Christian preacher, he helped to overturn Jim Crow in the South.  \n\nIf there's an issue you care deeply about, chances are God want to use you to help address that issue.  Think of Queen Esther, or Moses.  Also, John the Baptist criticized King Herod for taking his brother's wife as his own.  Jesus took a little time to address a couple of current events.  (See Luke 13:1-5.)  Remember, too, that Jesus is the savior of the world, not just of individual persons.  \n\nOn the other hand, there is this psalm:\n\nPsalm 131 (NIV)\nA song of ascents. Of David. \n 1 My heart is not proud, O LORD, \n       my eyes are not haughty; \n       I do not concern myself with great matters \n       or things too wonderful for me. \n 2 But I have stilled and quieted my soul; \n       like a weaned child with its mother, \n       like a weaned child is my soul within me. \n\n 3 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD \n       both now and forevermore.\n\nMy advice: strike a balance between worry and apathy.  If God calls you to answer a cause, do so!


Philip,\n\nIf you pray like a Pharisee, it is works. If you pray like a tax collector, it is not works. Since you are in the Religion and Spirituality section of Yahoo! Answers, I feel it is OK to use a parable of Jesus to illustrate my point.\n\nTo some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men-robbers, evildoers, adulterers-or even like this tax collector.  I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' \n\nBut the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.' \n\nI tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."  Luke 18:9-14\n\nCouldn’t have said it better myself.\n\nAs to your second question, the answer is, “No.” If I may I would like to go to the best source of truth once again.\n\nThat if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9\n\nPrayer is just communicating with God, and it can be done audibly or silently. In the case of being saved from death and going to heaven, you have to declare that Jesus is Lord to Jesus with your mouth – or audibly.\n\nMay I add that prayer is 2-way communication? I would rather hear God speak to me than almost anything that I’ve ever experienced. The only thing that I enjoy more is to sense His heart.\n\nGod bless.


im just a lil insecure lol i mean ever since a myspace incident i had with him ive been havin doubts he intentionally hurt me , long story lol but anyways my questions is how do i kno if he is for real this time and is serious , and how can i get him to crave me ?

Tell him that your pregnant and see what his reaction is.


e.g. if you were born in a muslim country you would be muslim %99 or if you were born in a christian one you would be a christian. No critics, no search before accept it. Just see from society and live in that way. Furthermore, seeing the others as a potential enemy, but there is no difference btwn you and him, because you all didn't search the other religions... Comments

people stop searching about knowledge .. that's a red line u can't cross it talking about religious... like if u r christian and u want to know anything about other religious u find first Ur family will argue u much and Ur friend and community be against u .. may be the bad thing we grow up and we didn't respect  others and sometimes we can't understand coz it simply we do not know ..i hope if we can change


I love my b/f soo much that I cry when im not wit him and it really hurts me to see him talking to anotha girl but im NOT jealous but everytime I talk to anotha boy he thinks im trying to play him and im not.He thinks he can do anything and get away wit it but he cant wit me.

Sounds like he's a loser.. I would seriously think about getting rid of him. \n\ntalk to him and tell him that it hurts you to see him talking to other girls.. if he's not willing to talk to you about it and how he feels about you with other boys.. then well he obviously dosn't love you as much as you love him. and why waiste your time and life with someone who doesn't love you, eh?


I once beleived in God. and now i realize that it doesnt make sense. i think religeon is an answer to mankinds fear of death.. or it gives life a cause. or maybe government used it to gain power. in ancent times ofcourse. i think we live and then die.. and after life is like before it.. we are nothing. \n\nanyone feeling like debating this with me.

Well, I agree with you to a point, so better wo find someone to debate with that has a stronger opinion against yours :-) Try the Christian Chat Rooms on chat.yahoo.com - you WILL find people in there to have a really loud debate with about this. Just don't expect any real answers. Just lots of praying and bible verses and counter-arguments like "can you see the wind? No? Well it's there. And so is God. Case closed."


do you think that australia will beat the other teams in the world cup.

I'm of the opinion they can get past the first round for the following reasons:\n\n(1) Two of their main players, Viduka and Kewell, have both had excellent seasons so far, Viduka is scoring for fun at the moment and Harry K is playing towards his potential at my beloved Liverpool.  The rest of the team is not bad.\n\n(2) Although Brazil is the worry in their group, Japan and Croatia should not be big threats, especially not Japan.  Clearly, they will be fighting for 2nd place in the group but they should be able to achieve that - it all depends on their preparations for the tournament.\n\nI can't see them progressing any further than that though.


For me,,,Uh,the cats name is disco...His name and looks make him exceptionally funny.

A lot of people say that wind power is ugly but it is a helluva lot betta than cell towas.  Sola enagy is great as well.  This stuff is betta than oil.

It is too bad that they have not been developed to their capacity. It is a concept whose time has come. Nuclear energy should be another alternative to fossil fuels, however too many crazies block that. But we need to cut our independence to oil so that the oil company's do no have such a death grip on us.


Hey all, I had a question about these weird Suicide Hotlines, this is not a joke but an actual question. Does anyone realize that when you call these numbers and you prove to them that your a harm for yourself, they trace the call, send the police, and send you off to the mental ward of the hospital, then make you pay for it afterwards? The bill isn't cheap at all. The one time I actually did call one of the hotlines, my family got billed around 2 Grand. I notice that none of these hotlines EVER have web chat, and I've seen some that actually say not to call from cell phones. Does anyone else think this is actually some scam?

I don't think it is a scam, I think it has probably saved many lives.


I feel like I am destined to have bad luck, not all the time of course, but I always seem to fish just behind the net. Is there some cosmic theory for having bad luck?

I seem to get an inordinate amount of bad luck. Take today My car broke down, i lost 15 pounds(money), i locked myself out of my house and i burnt my toast. I'm not going to bed in case i die in my sleep.


Im in a fantasy baseball league and think a pair of teams are cheating. How do I report this for investigation?

you should e-mail complaints to the commissioner then the comm. would do something about it


I need to copy some DVD's I bought but I can't because of the protection on it. I hope somebody knows how to do this.


i put unknown father on birth certificate and he wants it changed. can he do that? its been 11 years

yes but I think you have to go through the courts.


What assassination attempt precipitated this move by the Secret Service

My guess would be Ronald Reagan's assassination attempt...\n\nBut I think that today nobody would want to miss the hilarity that is our ridiculous leader


ive heard this more than once know!why would you pretend to be something your not?talk about living a lie if you could pretend to be from somewhere why would you pick ireland?

I don't consider myself to be of Irish descent, although I probably have more Irish ancestors than a lot of people. (My region was settled mainly by Irish immigrants "back in the day.") Face it, people want to have some kind of ethnic heritage other than just generic American, whatever it may be. Hmmm, I don't really know, so I'll make an educated guess. Mexican? Nah, I don't look Mexican. Or Italian, for that matter. German? I think my name's too normal. Normal? Hey, it's probably from somewhere in the U.K. or Ireland! And didn't great aunt Mildred mention something about someone coming over from Dublin in 1902? Why, I bet...\n\nI'm probably overstating a little, but you get the point.


lastly the latino countries are turning to be communists,slowly but this is happening:cuba(ever),venezuela,argentina,brasil,bolivia,now i heard these are close too:peru,nicaragua,mexico etc...but the chinese,cuban and arabian are coming to visits to them or they are visitting to these.


Okay, so there's these guys named Zach, Jason, Kyle, Leland, and Kevin. They are all in my math class. Me and Zach were working together on math, and the other guys were working together, and Kevn motioned for me to come over. So I told Zach to hold on and Kevin was like "Chels, you and Zach make such a good couple" and since we're all 13/14 I was like, "Kevin, get a life." So then Kyle called me back over and I was like "What?" and Kyle said, "Chels, Zach really likes you." And I didn't believe him but then again they are good friends with Zach. So Leland (who is my stepbrother) said, "No, Chelsea, we're serious. Zach told Jason that he really liked you and not to tell anyone, but Jason told Kyle, and Kyle told me, and I told Kevin," so then Zach asked "What's going on? Are you talking about me?" and then the bell rang, so I left, and Zach's friends keep talking to me about Zach, and whenever I see him he blushes and avoids me. So, is this some stupid joke, or does Zach like me?

He definately likes you. This happenedto me before we fell in love. Been together for 2 yrs.


I am in love with this girl, but she has had something really bad happen to her in the past, two things actually, and she is going to talk to a councelor about it. why wont she talk to me about it? is there anything that I can do to let her know that she can? I've already told her that she can talk to me about anything, and that nothing she could say about her past would make me stop loving her, but for some reason she just wont open up to me about it. I can understand it being hard to talk about, cause I know what it was, but how come she can talk to a complete stranger about it, but not the one that she sais she loves soo much?? Please, any insight would be apreciated.

It's probably easier for her to open up to a complete stranger b/c she does not feel like she is risking a relationship there.  It doesn't matter to her if the counselor doesn't love her.....I don't think it has anything to do with you, I think its her issues, and she needs to work through them.  Just support her going to a counselor, and let her know you are always there.  You sound like a good boyfriend.....I'm sure she sees that...and will open up to you when she is ready.

FOR CASE STUDY OF A COURSE HUMAN BEHAVIOR IN THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT

We become who we are as individuals as a result of our socialization in our social environment. If you want the answers to the "Why" questions in behavior (why do people steal, cheat, lie, etc...) you have to study social environment to get a better understanding. Social environment also helps us to predict behavior which can be helpful when you are looking at public policy. If poverty tends to lead to certain behaviors, you can attempt to alleviate the problem behavior by trying to meet the needs of the poor. Now of course it isnt this simplisitic, but human behavior can be analyzed best when taken in the context of social environment.


TRICK QUESTION! MY WIFE IS THE PIG, SHE CAN'T LOSE!

Three things:\n\n1: I hope you have NOT reproduced.\n\n2. I recommend you get a &*%#$@ good divorce attorney.\n\n3. I'll personally finance your wife's attorney. You are the most discusting MAN I have ever had the misfortune to run across.\n\nYou should count your blessing mister, because your wife must see and love something about you. I fear if you didn't have her you would be alone for a lifetime. If you do not love her, or want to be with her then leave....but DO NOT humiliate her with your screen name and rude, vile, ugliness that you put up for the WHOLE WORLD to see..... You need to learn respect. Didn't your Daddy teach you anything? Or maybe that's the problem....he did! \nAND REMEMBER MEATHEAD......\nWHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND.\n\nAND STOP USING THE EDUCATION SECTIONS TO SPREAD YOUR EVIL POISON....THERE ARE CHILDREN HERE ASKING REAL QUESTIONS!!!


are there some other Civilization in this universe, someone else? what is the grand secret about the universe even the goverment doesn't wants us to know?

Are we alone? Probably not. It would be fairly conceited to think otherwise. What is the 'grand secret' the government doesn't want us to know? I really doubt there is any secret. I don't believe any foreign intelligent life has ever visited the earth. Frankly, if they have the technology to cover the vast distances to visit us, then they would have no interest in doing so. If it was the land they were interested in, then we would not be hear anymore. They probably could anihalate us in the blink of an eye.


Yes I remember the song, but I don't think he could see the future.  He was talking about what was going on at that time.  This has been "A Wild World" since the beginning of time.


Hmm...this isn't just about the splits really BUT about general flexibility, I have all day to stretch and experiment etc, it's really important for me to be flexible because I'm an ice skater...Thanks!

it may take more then a week, but stretch daily, especially before and after you excersize. Push yourself a little further each day and you will become more flexible


My wife and son live in Thailand, they need me but I can't find a way back to them.  I am depressed, and desperate.  Anyone who can help, I ask you please for anything you can give.

try get an other job,and avoid repeating the same mistakes that made you loose the fist one!!dont wait for help,save your time..start working..and then you can ask for support..


I've heard it several times. Always early in the day. I would say it lasts about ten to fifteen seconds, and its loudness peaks about half way through. It sounds like its coming from the west. Any ideas?

Many factories and industrial sites use these sirens as a "knock-off" sign. It means its time for the workers to go home, a shift change, or signifies something is about to happen on one of these sites, such as a crane dropping its load. They have them in Japan as well. Scared the hell outta me when i was deployed over there the first time i heard it.


This goes beyond racists. It is everyday people, educated and successful. Their problem is they are "too busy" to properly prioritize understanding individuals in their lives (search for truth), so they generalize and use stereotypes to judge and falsely predict who people really are. \n\nI see this mostly with upper and upper-middle class Caucasians in well-to-suburbia that would defiantly say they're not racist, but would go out of their way not to associate with other races (outside of charity) in fear of being ostracized by their peers. Just about like the Sandra Bullock character in the movie Crash.\n\nIs there a name for people like this? Maybe I need to make one up.

Some would call us Crackers.\n\nUs white folk feel entitled to automatic success because our white guy fore-fathers built this country politically and financially.  We don't try to learn about other races because we don't have to associate with them to make money.  We also don't like other cultures because we are afraid they will 'steal' our legacy.  It becames a self full-filling prophecy that is taught to the next generation of whities.\n\nTwo more notes:\nI don't think they are lazy, they just have never been exposed to other cultures and are confused about how to fit in.  When in doubt, people give up - because it is better to cling to your closed off world than look foolish.\n\nEveryone is looking to fit into a group.  And generally what you learned in high school applies.  Groups put down other groups and peer pressure is relentless.


I speak English as a second language,and to be honest,I've seen many Americans who can't speak or write as good as I can...But still I get insulted by many of them,because of my "bad english"...Why is that so?Do I deserve that?

Not only by the Americans but also by the English..:P


Some have even said that they hope I die a slow painful death?

It's because you are close-minded, hateful, and a religious zealot. Everyone, read this person's questions and then answer this one. You'll see why we don't like him. Oh, and just so you know, the Antichrist will come in the name of God. Just because you say you're of God, doesn't mean you actually are. I really hope you're hit with a revelation from God, very soon, so that you may change your ways.


Ok, here is the deal. I made commitments to go to my best friends wedding. We have known each other since were 5 so its really a big deal to her. But I live in Washington and she lives in Boston. Her wedding is June. Two weeks ago I was laid off. I just found a new job that will ABSOLUTELY NOT let me have any time off except sick days for at least 6 months. I told my friend that it may be impossible now seeing how she is so far away and losing this job would mean losing my house, car, etc. She still persisted I find a way there. I finally sent an e-mail and a phone call to her (voicemail b/c she didnt answer) and told her there was no way I can come now, and I was very sorry. Have not heard back from her. Any advice?

Wow! I am kind of in the same situation and the only advice I can give is to take care of yourself first. I can see how there may be disappointment but if you can't go then you can't go. Best friends, even just good friends, should be able to understand something like that. Maybe she just needs a few days to get over it and then she will be ok. If you have explained the situation to her, and apologized, then that is really all you can do. You can't jeopardize a dream job and your livelihood for one day at a wedding. You can be there in heart, but don't risk it with a new job. People can go downhill fast if they lose even a week of work. The best thing to do is take care of yourself first. You won't be much good at a wedding if you are worried about your own personal issues, and employment is what enables people to be able to survive in most issues. Good Luck!

If you are concerned with how harsh some of the content can be, why not use the parental block on the computer.  You can block out anything that is too harsh, like violent porn or anything hardcore.  Obviously he's curious and it's perfectly normal for him to be, there is nothing wrong with him wanting to see a naked woman ect.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with a mother wanting to protect her child from potentially harmful influences.


Matches are shorter, 7 or 10 mins, (normally 7, finals longer) each way.\n\nPlayers who get receive yellow cards spend 2 mins in sin bin insted of 10.\n\nReferees give far less time to play the ball in rucks and mauls, to encourage quicker play.\n\nDrop kicks only, no place kicks at goal.\n\nThere used to be a rule where the team scoring kicked off rather than the conceeding team but I can remember if they still use it.


or do you think we are nieve to believe that we are the only life form.

i believe in ufo s.  there must be other life in the universe. more advanced than us. probably watching us now destroying our own planet. i have read accounts of pilots in world war two .ufo s flying near planes just watching the pilots and observing us.


how does every one feel about the church of christ how would anybody feel if someday when they died and god said the church of christ was the only church of god  knowing that it is to late to change now that your deied

Isn't that a Mormon church? If it is, then it's full of morons. The Bible clearly says not to add or take away any part of it, and they just decided to write their own version.


A few months ago I got into some legal issues over some problems I had with cymbalta my dr. took me off of this without weening me first it is antidepressent but used to help me with pain management and my dr. was subpoenaed to my hearing.  Back when I had these issues I called the phone nurse and she refused to help me although I explained the horrible side effects the meds gave me.  I think this is the real reason for my Dr's Decision but not sure.  Even in my follow up appt. he agreed the meds cause my problems. I'm 28 and had to file bankrupt due to my time off work.  From age 22 till now i've had 3 surguries on my same disc in my lower back and it has cause my much grief i've never had a criminal history until I got charged with battery (for slapping someone) over my cymbalta withdraw and it sounds stupid but unless you've had horrible side effects from medication withdraw then you might understand, plus I was also prescribed 50 mcg of fentanyl pain patch which was also horrible.

I really sympathize with you, this past summer I had horrible side effects with medication and also need to file bankruptcy because of the affect it had on my ability to work. Unfortunately, unless you have insurance they may be able to refuse you. The Hippocratic oath is only for life/death emergencies or other catastrophic events. Best of luck in your rebuilding process.


My name is Tiberiu and I am from Romania. I am currently working, I'm earning around 100 USD a month. With such a salary, I can just dream about having a computer.\n\nI heard that in foreign countries, such as USA and Western European countries, people that don't need a PC anymore will just throw it to the trash bin. I am asking you, if anyone has an old PC at home or could spare some old PC components to send them to me, I will take good care of them.\n\nI know that there are people in need in Africa that would need a computer more than me, but think about it: many those people have never seen a PC, they just can't really appreciate one. I, instead, keep hearing all day about the wonders of having a PC at home.\n\nMaybe anyone will hear me and will able to do something for me.\n\nThank you and sorry for my English.

the problem is that you're still going to have to pay for the shipping costs.\n\nYou should visit ebay and make sure the seller is willing to send it to your country.


Any songs by Gloc-9, Gagong rapper, Sex Bomb Girls, Jin, Dice & K9 etc etc Doesnt matter if its R&B, rap, techno,dance or watever thanx!

....Torture and horrible death?\n\n\nThe cross is just that, used to kill many thousands, if not millions over the years.

I am not sure I want my kids to be intermingled with ANY religious group AT ALL!!!! They are ALL starting to sound a bit scary to me?


ok so i'm trying to start a clothline brand of my own. But people are so irresponsable. You give them a due time and they not respect that i'm just starting so i'm about half way the processes of getting my cloths done, but its a lot of money that i'm investing, i work on another job during the day so i barely have time to do my stuff. i dont know what to do---should i keep going??

Do you think Tommy Hilfiger gave up? Ann CLine? How about Ralph Lauren?  \n\n\nKeep at it!! I'm sure it will pay off SOME day :)


seth then ryan. They cant help it that they are so damn SEXY!!!!   Damn it now i will be thinking about them all day!!!  Ahh well at least its something worth while!!  ;o)


Since, American pop-culture has contributed to the homogenization of global cultures. In the future, what reason one might have to travel abroad?

Travel abroad so that you can see that homogenization has not totally occured.  Each town, city or country has its own flavour.  Broaden your mind.\nAmericans that I speak to visiting my country love our culture and country.  They see it quite differently to America.  Other travelers do not see America here or in other places.  Try reading some peoples travel pages.  Below is one very interesting one.


if your music is so bad that the devil plays it in hell to torture people, does that mean the musician has to go there by default?

he's probably a very nice person and for all you know it might be played in Heaven, I don't care just so long as I don't have to hear it too often here on earth

We would all agree that the universe is beautiful, spectacular, fascinating, awe-inspiring... Isn't that enough?  Why do people have to believe there are inevident mythical creatures as well, like gods and goddesses, angels and demons, spirits, ghosts, fairies and so on - a whole vast menagerie of imaginary entities?  Isn't reality enough to inspire someone for a thousand lifetimes, all on its own?

It is for me, pretty much. :-)  NASA rocks with their excellent science pictures---great monitor wallpaper!  Tho, while I am a very creative person, my creativity comes out mostly in my poetry and opinion essays.  I don't tunnel much of my creativity to my "beliefs"---i.e. believing in fairies or whatnot, even if I find pictures of fairies pretty sometimes.\n\nOnly way I tunnel my creativity to my atheistic beliefs is if I do a self-prayer on my altar or light a candle cuz I need emotional calm or to refocus my thoughts on an issue or project or a need.


www.illegalimmigrantprotest.com   is working on organization efforts in your area and needs help.

some kind of action needs to be taken to stop immigrants from getting into our country illegally. how is it fair for the people that went through the proper process to become a legal American citizen?  How is it fair that these illegals take advantage of our system and pay 25 bucks for invalid social security cards/paperwork?  Yeah, it's a hard process to become legal in the U.S., but it's that way for a reason!  I wouldn't dare flock to another country without the proper paperwork and knowledge beforehand; I would do it legally, the way it's supposed to be.  I just don't understand why these people can't just be honest and do the right thing.\nAnyway, I agree with the website you've posted and we all have to work together for our country and the people that are here legally and people who worked to get into this country the right and legal way.


PLease i have somne question on this play. i swear this is not 4 homework i was wondering bout these questions i would ask my teacher but i have a test on this and i have like 10 questions that may seem hard to answer in only an 5 min but here they r.\n1. Why do Octavius and Antony argue in Scene i?\n2. How was the argument different from the one with brutus and cssius in scene ii?\n3. how does Prtia die?\n4. Why does brutus not rush to tell cAssius of her death?\n5. wut r similar and different from the reactions of brutus and cassius to portia's death\n6. Wut does the goast of ceaser mean when her says ti brutus "thou shalt see me at philippi"\n7. y have brutus and cassius decide to attttack antony and octavius at philippi rather then wait 4 them 2 attact?\n8. who will be the vicoe in the battle and y \n9. which charicter in the act woupd make a leader 4 rome and y.\nplease help me im confused bout this story. ill need some help. i will give u the best answer please help me.

6. i know "thou shalt see me at philippi" was just kind of foretelling what was going to happen.  When the ghost came in, if i recall correctly, he had said many things that were going to happen in the near future.  That was one of them.  \n\n9. I'm pretty sure it was Antony because his final speech to the crowd got everyone to turn on the conspirators.


You need to be a friend to your friend.  If your friend is being hit, kicked punched or made fun of or teased or threatened in anyway tell your friend to tell a counselor at school or the police.  Also, if the mother is spending the money on drinking instead of buying food or doing laundry or getting clothing for your friend then she needs to tell the counselor or teacher or the police.  Good luck


A rectangle is defined by the vertices J(10,0) K(-8,6) L(-12,6) M(6,-12). Without solving it, show what steps you would need to follow to show that the diagonals bisect each other. Be specific, but DO NOT SOLVE!

PROCEDURE:\n\n1) Plot the so-called vertices.\n2) Connect any two adjacent points with a segment.\n3) Determine if the resulting plane figure is a rectangle.\n(It seems that the vertices that you have mentioned do not form a rectangle.)\nNote: A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides being parallel and interior angles all being right angles.\n4) Connect opposite vertices with a line segment. You will form two diagonals.\n5) determine the equation of each line (segment) that constitute the diagonal. You will have two equations.\n6) Find the point of intersection between the two diagonals by solving for the unknowns (x & y) using the two equations.\n7) Find the length of each diagonal (the two diagonals should have the same length).\n8) Find the length from a vertex to the point of intersection between the two diagonals.\n9) If the length from any vertex to the point of intersection between the diagonals is half that of the length of any diagonal, then the diagonals are said to bisect each other.


is it true that a player of 18 yrs will sign contract without his /her agent.

thank God A.J has not answered this one.the last man during normal play in my opinion is the goal keeper and his 'work' definitely is to stop the ball from strolling into the net or even crossing the line.\n\nan 18yr old is considered to be of age and can sign a contract which will be binding if he chooses.however this is not advisable since a contract signing is a very serious business and requires people with the proper know-how to handle. an agent may do just fine here.


'Everybody' does not hate you.  I am sorry if you are going through a time when it feels as though you are not appreciated or supported, not having fun, feeling left out...\n\nMaybe changing your circle of friends might help? Finding a new hobby or interest?\n\nDon't fall into the trap of believing that every person you meet hates you.  Give them a chance to see the real you and also, when you feel a bit more confident, show interest in others - people tend to like that, if you are being genuine :-)\n\nI do hope you have someone you trust that you can talk to about this.


I have never seen scores posted where a team scores more goals than they had power plays.  How is PP effeciency then calculated?

No.  Every time you score a goal during a major penalty, the remaining time is considered an additional power play opportunity.  PP Efficiency is calculated by dividing the number of power play goals by the number of power play opportunities.  Assuming that in your example the major penalty was the only penalty of the game,  the power play team would be 3-3 on power play chances or 100% efficiency.


HONEST answers plz. How important is a sex-life in a relationship compared to the emotional connection you have with your partner?? If you HAD to pick only one of them to have in a relationship, which would it be??? BRUTALLY, BRUTAL HONEST answers please.

I don't think you can have one without the other in a relationship and make it work for long. I would rather start with an emotional connection and develop a whole relationship off of that and then it would be complete.

1) He told his family I was his clearner!\n2) He made me drive a pickup down a range when I was learning to drive,on my own.\n3) He stopped me from going to my family reunion in the country he works in.\n4) I caught him in bed with my best friend.\n5) And I put up with that for 3 Years, I was so faithful.\n\nI suddendly left the country and now I am in the US married for 2 years and very happy.\n\nYet I think back and say, I wished I squashed you for those so many hurtful things. It's just not enough...I can't go on and forget about it.

you know what i've put up with much worse for 5 years with my ex-boyfriend, he cheated, he humiliated, he manipulated, he made my life absolutely miserable, he almost infected me with Hep C he got from one of him lovers, i almost got raped and died because of him. And now just like you I'm in the States, married to the wonderful man with our sweet little girl. We've been married for 4 years, my family is my world and my everything. With every breath i take i thank God for what i have. And all my anger, my pain and thirst for revenge is gone now. I got cured. And i don't care any more. Once past was hunting me, eating me alive from inside, my memories and broken heart didn't let me become happy. I was the only one who suffered. Now when i let it go i'm finally HAPPY. I wish you the same

Yeah, i think the girl wanted some ideas, not links.\nmy god, when is your spring break?

Limit facts to one- or two-sentence factoids. past on some graphs and tables (populations education) Name some landmarks (put rushmore on the front page). Like most midwest states, don't forget to tout the agriculture too. Don't just spew junk from a wiki site like everyone here does.

I need to find this poem before 12:00 noon today, 4/12/06. Thanks!

hereThe Final Flight\n\n\n\nDon't grieve for me, for now I'm free,\nI'm following the path God laid for me.\nI took his hand when I heard his call,\nI turned my back and left it all.\n\n\n\nI could not stay another day,\nTo laugh, to love, to work, to play.\nTasks left undone must stay that way,\nI've found that peace at the end of the day.\n\n\n\nIf my parting has left a void,\nThen fill it with remembered joy.\nA friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,\nAh, yes, these things too I will miss.\n\n\n\nBe not burdened with times of sorrow,\nI wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.\nMy Life's been full, I savoured much,\nGood friends, good times, a loved one' touch.\n\n\n\nPerhaps my time seemed all too brief,\nDon't lengthen it now with undue grief.\nLift up your heart and share with me,\nGod wanted me now, He set me free.\n\n\n\nAuthor: Unknown\n\n\n is one, i will keep looking for you!


Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it'd be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.\n\nI have to resouce it for an anthology project in class, if I dont get it cited by tommorow I get a zero, help?

Looks like the quote is Harvey Mackay, a motivational speaker.  Couldn't tell you what book it might be from, but I do have a website...\n\nwww.mackay.com


I keep getting sick perverted emails, from older men saying they want to have sex with me. I mean I've not said anything leading them on or anything like that. I mean are people that desperate, lonely, and horny, that they need to harass a poor innocent 18 yr old girl as myself or what??? I don't understand it.

"Welcome to the Internet."  Photoshop your pics and make it look like you have cold sores and scars and maybe.....  Never mind, that will just attract an even lower class of pervert.  Just remove the pics and say you're a leprous forty year old four hundred pound bachelor who looooooves other guys.

how do i create a lookup table in microsoft excel

A simple two column lookup table with one column with values to match and another column with values to return. Two columns A & B:\n\n7 Bike\n8 Car\n9 Boat\n\nOn another sheet or workbook you could use the vlookup function to find in col A, a number and return the value in the second column.\n\nTo find car the formula would be =vlookup(8,A1:B3,2,False)

The "absolute time" is a hypothetical time that either runs at the same rate for all the observers in the universe or the rate of time of each observer can be scaled to the "absolute time" by multiplying the rate by a constant. The theory of relativity doesn't allow the existence of such time because of non existence of absolute simultaneity.\n\nIn physics, the notion of absolute space says that space is an inert arena on which other physical phenomena take place. The space affects the other phenomena, but the space itself is not affected by those phenomena. Newton's absolute space implies that there is one inertial system out of an infinite number that is unique.\n\nAbsolute space underlies the laws of classical physics of Isaac Newton. In his theories, the idea of the absolute space was superseded by the notion of spacetime in special relativity and especially dynamically curved spacetime in general relativity.


I get plenty of sleep at night but I feel exhausted all the time. I could go to sleep at any time of the day and sleep all day all the time. Could low iron in the blood cause this?

Low iron is definitely a possibility.\nI was diagnosed with having low iron as well as being anemic and I felt exhausted all of the time. But I had no idea until I almost passed out and had bloodwork done at the doctor's office.\nAlso, it could be an indication of diabetes or a thyroid condition.\nIt could be a many number of potential health problems. I suggest seeing your physician and having bloodwork done.


If i buy purchase a dvd set from ebay .......the seller lives in china so when i get it in america would i need to pay any custom tax or fees? are there any fees or tax on dvd set from china?

no, it is being shipped, you shouldn't have to pay anything addt'l


any over the counter decongestant... Pseudophed is the best, I think...      When my son's ear would get clogged the pharmacist told me to put a cap full of peroxide in it... let it bubble then flush warm water in it while holding you head, ear facing down, over the sink using a ear dropper....   All stuff you can get at a local drugstore...\n\nfeel better


This never happened and now i'm wondering if he's no longer attractive to me. I've caught him looking at porn on the internet, watching girls with big butts. But I have a fat a** myself. So what is it, do he want something or someone else?


we live far apart and not sure if i want to tell him that i like him. we talk everyday on the phone for a few hours. i not sure what to do

Chances are that if you talk for a few hours everyday, he likes you too, and he may be afraid to say it.  The only way to find out if he loves you is to tell him that you love him.    You always take a chance at being hurt when you tell someone how you feel.  But, if you don't tell someone how you feel, you take a chance at losing them.


This was the winning unanswerable question in an Omni Magazine contest several years ago.  So far, I've never heard an explanation!

The feeling of being tickled is a reaction of not wanting to be touched. This is why the exact same touch is ticklish from one person and not another. Laughing is the response to show that intellectually you don't mind but subconsciously you do.  Since your touching yourself you don't feel threatened.


I would assume they don't, but someone made reference to the beaches in Chicago being nasyy, so I"m wondering what beaches this person was talking about.

It depends on the lake.  Lake Michigan for instance has some of the nicest sand and sand dunes I have ever seen, including comparitively the Cape on the Mass coast.  \n\n(Lk Michigan is the lake by Chicago and Chicago's beaches are sand)  \n\nSome of the other of the great lakes have less sand or pebbles areas plus sand.  But yes for the most part there is sand at all of the great lakes.


This guy notices me and were friends but how can I get him to notice that I want to be more than friends

flirt with him and sometimes make like comments that seem like u just playing around, when in reality u mean it and when u think he is starting to like u then be more open with him and just try to spend alot of time with him sharing interests


I wish I had one if that's what you mean.  They have all the best aspects to them.  I just can't afford one.  That is the only drawback.  If you can afford it, I highly recommend picking one up.


or not campaign and then complain when you don't like the guy who gets elected


Please give reasons for your answer, thx.

I'd hug the tree. The tree needs to be loved too and we know that Republicans only hug Oil Cans. I am a proud Environmentalist that cares more about the Earth than making money to cut more trees down to own several houses around the Country. Lord knows what will happen to the habitat and balance of nature if they drill in Alaska. I wonder if there are really planning on sending all the animals to live on the moon instead of man !


I've heard that our federal crime agency will be changing names or oversight recently. Is it possible or even practicle that this happen. Some one tell me the truth here

If they were to be changing the name of the agency it would be part of the public record.  As far as I know there is no change supposed to occur to the FBI's current name.

I need to be able to control two programs at the same time

If the video card allows, you could get two monitors and put one application on one screen and the other on the other screen to make it easier to see. You can have as many windows active as your processor and memory can handle.


i live in Egypt, i was just bullied by a major...who threatened me when i shouted at him for having cut me off on purpose (that was his idea of flirting) and for stoping suddenly in front of me on the highway..he threatened to take my license and show me who he is...he even showed me his id that proves he's a major...that guy was talking as if he was God...and he was my master and i am the slave b/c he works for the authoritarian government's army...

I know that they don't treat them very well in China. Have you ever watched anything about the tank man of China (Frontline) from PBS. He stood in front of a parade of tanks, and just told them to stop. Nobody knows today who he was, or wont say because he disappeared into the crowds. Beijing started to have the student riots to change the government shortly after this incident.


my son has multiable pus bumps on his skin

Do you think it might be important to know where they are on your son?  How old your son is?  How they showed up?  Any other details about these bumps or any symptoms associated?  I left my crystal ball in my other sport coat.  Give details and I'll edit my answer later or tomorrow.\n\nIf there are many surface, possibly coalescing, "pus bumps" with a reddened base...this sounds like a contact dermatitis, like poison ivy or poison oak, but sometimes people can have strong reactions to other chemical agents etc...you didn't mention that there was itching, though.  You should use Domeboro solution - it is available at your local drug store.\n\nIf the pus bumps are associated with a hair follicle then this sounds like a folliculitis.  Essentially it is an infection of the hair shaft.  Oral or topical antibiotics are useful.  It is from the bacteria that is normally found on the skin.\n\nAlright that's the best I can guess given the information.  If it doesn't sound right, of course taking him into his pediatrician is a very good idea.  Good luck.


I'm not being cynical - on the contrary. Lots of us (myself included) complain bitterly about the way this country and its institutions fail people, and advocate change. But what, unsentimentally, is a fundamental strength of the U.S. that you believe to be an inviolable principle, beyond compromise?

Checks and Balances\n\nWhen you have three branches of the federal government, you need a government where one branch of government is constantly held in check by the other two branches.  Without a series of checks and balances, the president, congress, or the Supreme Court could take power and a representative democracy could turn slowly into a dictatorship or oligarchy.


why do guys love lesbians, i love them too and am jealous if i see them make out and want to join in. what can a guy do?

i don't think its the same way as girls view gays?\nif I were to see two gays making out, there is nooo way would i want to join in.\nrather, i think guys wants lesbians because they are the unattainable. and as much as you want to join in their making out session, there is noooo way you'd be able to do so, simply because they are too into each other to be interested in boys. and thats what intrigues you guys, simple because you won't be able to get them.


I was at Gigg Lane last night to watch  FC United Of Manchester get promoted, let me know if you was there and what you thought of it.

FC United clinch first promotion, i was not there but it is a good feeling to get into next league.
