Is there a place to identify what is legal file sharing and what is not?\n\nI understand that copying a DVD, CD, or other copywrited material is illegal to share.  But what about recording the material from another source?\n\nFor example.  I know that if I were to copy a CD and share that copy, that is illegal.  What if I were to record a song off the radio and then share that?  Is that illegal?\n\nWhat about TV shows?  If I record a TV show while it is being broadcast, is it illegal to share that recording?  \n\nThanks

Most copying of copyrighted works is illegal. Then if you share it, that is an illegal distribution. However, some copying is fair use, an exception to the law. Most home copying for personal use is fair use, but you shouldn't distribute the copies to others. Basically, the artistic work underlying that recording or broadcast belongs to someone else, and you violate their rights by copying or distributing without permission. If a work is in the public domain, the copyright has expired, and you can do whatever you want with it.

My husband and I filed bankruptcy last year and we were bombarded with credit card and new car offers. We took the bait and now we have two new car payments and three credit cards that are over the limit. We have been paying on them each month, but still have not been able to catch up with the late fees and over the limit charges. Our total monthly expenses is equivalent to 97% of our income. How can we ever get out of this credit card hell?? I have heard that 90% of people that come out of bankruptcy end up in debt again. I don't want to be one of the statistics. We really need some good advice. Serious answering only. I would be willing to share my budget with someone who would be able to help us manage our money. - Thanks You!

I have had the same situation. BUDGET BUDGET BUDGET.. You will need to bring in more money from somewhere, part time job. cutting back..something.The best way to watch your money is to write down every penney you spend in a two week period, then go back and eliminate all unnessary expenditures. This method really shows how your money was spent Concentrate on paying off one debt at a time.. put as much money on one bill as you can and make minumum payments to the others until its there turn to be paid off. But remember to try and save a little all along..Even $5.00 bucks a week can start you off.


what does everyone think of Bush, the political system, and our Government?

I believe the political system in the USA is no longer legitimate.  This has little to do with the current President.  Both major parties have been corrupted, so much so that the concept of a representative democracy is now true in word only.  Your interests are no longer being considered and your voice is no longer siginificant.  It would take a cataclysmic event or series of events (that some say are on the horizon anyway: runaway hyperinflation, energy shortages, the collapse of the housing bubble, the insolvency of the government itself, etc.) to change things.  Up until and including that time I suggest you worry less about the government, which is nearly a complete waste of time, and start thinking about what you can do to fend for yourself and your own family.


I want my Avatar to show up when answering a question, but I'm at work and not on my own computer. Is there a charge or something for using the Avatars? Silly question I know. Also, if its o.k. to do. How do I do it? Thanks for the help.

Avatars are free, and they follow you around the various Yahoo sites, like Mail, IM, Answers, etc.  They are not dependent on which computer you are using.  So here we go,\n\n1) First, you'll need to create your avatar,\nYou should be able to go to either your Yahoo Answers profile at http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit and select 'create or edit my avatar' whichever it says.\n\nOR, go to the actual avatars homepage at http://avatars.yahoo.com\n\nSign in with your Yahoo account\nCreate your avatar\nMake sure to select "Save Changes" under the avatar\nJust for grins, to make it easier if you have to return to the avatar page, select "Save to Favorites"\n\n2) Second, you'll need to activate your avatar in Answers\nThen, in your Answers profile http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit\n\nYou should be able to choose "Use My Yahoo! Avatar"\n\n\nFINALLY, just wait a day or two. This process sometimes glitches and it takes a little while for the change to appear.


What legal rights as a parent to I have to obtain a copy of my son's medical records from his psychologist in the state of north carolina

if you are his legal gaurdian you should be able to get a copy of them.  if however, you are not his legal gaurdian, (i.e. in case of divorce), you will need a release of information to get them.\n\nin some cases you will only be able to get a summary of the medical record.

In your opinion. K-6. Give me some reasons behind your answers.\nPlease only teachers respond.

if it's only up to 6th, it's definitely 6th grade, but kindergarten teachers are about the hardest working, most patient teachers I know (I've worked in elementary ed for 20 years)\n8th grade is actually the worst of all!


If you had to live out a real life horror movie, which one would you choose? I think I might try Freddie Kreuger, IT, Body Snatchers, or Dawn of the Dead. How 'bout you?

The original Dawn of the Dead.  The mall music kicked ass, and being trapped in a mall like that with the undead being managable...it would be a blast.  Of course when the biker gang shows up your pretty much screwed, but....what the hell.


Im looking for a website all about Mario & Luigi with information about them and there creator.

First check out the Wikipedia pages. They have tons of info.\n\nMario: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario\nLuigi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luigi\nShiguru Miyamoto (the creator): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiguru_Miyamoto\n\nA link to the official site and some other great Mario & Luigi sites can be found in the links section at the bottom of the page.


To the Blessed Virgin, our mother and the greatest mother of all, happy Mother's Day!\n\n"When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." \n\nThen he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her into his home." John 19, 26-27

To the best of my understanding, Christians (Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant) teach that Jesus lived a life of perfect obedience, making him unique in this respect. So it is only natural to conclude that he loved his mother more perfectly than any son ever loved their mother.


My husband was hurt in an auto accident the place where he was employed was carrying his health insurance.  The employer states that he does not have to continue to carry his health insurance for him and our family is this correct or is there a law that states otherwise?

I had a friend injured while engaged in a work related situation, and she went from regular employee to Worker's Comp.  If your husband has been turned into Worker's Comp, it's a different type of classification. They do have Worker's Comp attorneys and you might want to consult with one to determine your situation.

An old farmer went to town to see a movie with his pet Chucky the smart Rooster but to his dismay the Ticket agent protested, "Sorry Sir we can't allow animals In the theatre." \nThe old farmer went around the corner and stuffed the bird in his pants. He returned to the booth, bought a ticket, entered the theatre and sat down next to two old widows named Mildred and Marge. The movie started and the rooster began to squirm. The old farmer unzipped his pants so Chucky could stick his head out and watch the movie. \n\n" Marge," whispered Mildred. \n"What?" said Marge. "I think the guy next to me Is a pervert." \n"What makes you think so?" Asked Marge. "He unzipped his pants and he has his thing out," whispered Mildred. \n"Well, don't worry about It," said Marge, "At our age we've seen them all." \n"I thought so too," said Mildred, "But this one is eating my POPCORN”.

u again got it ... where the heck this funny stuff cums tu ur mind .... ;)


anyone can voluteer to answer this question who is engaging in teaching and training field.

I think that it is extremely important. People need to feel like it's OK to put themselves out there and make a mistake. It's impossible to learn anything without goofing up every once in a while. Creating this kind of environment boils down to one thing, respect. If you respect your students, and don't tolerate your other students disrespecting each other it will facilitate their learning.


I want to see what Americans of every age thinks about the illegal immigrants issue. It's becoming a real problem. Not fair for those who are waiting to get their citizenship the legal way.

ohhh my goodness..where to start!well heres one tenth of what i want to say!\nTRY THIS CRAP IN MEXICO\n\n\nIf you are ready for the adventure of a lifetime,\n\n\nTRY THIS:\n\nEnter Mexico illegally. Never mind immigration quotas, visas,\ninternational law, or any of that nonsense.\n\nOnce there, demand that the local government provide free medical care\nfor you and your entire family.\n\nDemand bilingual nurses and doctors.\n\nDemand free bilingual local government forms, bulletins, etc. Procreate\nabundantly.\n\nDeflect any criticism of this allegedly irresponsible reproductive\nbehavior with, "It is a cultural USA thing. You would not understand,\npal."\n\nKeep your American identity strong.  Fly Old Glory from your rooftop,\nor proudly display it in your front window or on your car bumper.\n\nSpeak only English at home and in public and insist that your children\ndo likewise.\n\nDemand classes on American culture in the Mexican school system.\n\nDemand a local Mexican driver license. This will afford other legal\nrights and will go far to legitimize your unauthorized, illegal \npresence\nin Mexico.\n\nDrive around with no liability insurance and ignore local traffic laws.\n\n\nInsist that local Mexican law enforcement teach English to all its\nofficers.\n\nGood luck!  You'll be demanding for the rest of time or soon dead.\n\nBecause it will never happen.\n\nIt will  not happen in Mexico or any other country in the world except\nright here in  the United States, Land of the naive and stupid, idiotic\npolitically  correct politicians.\n\nIf you agree, pass it on.   If you don't, go ahead and try the above in\nMexico or  Iraq.


Catholocism and other religions would say we can earn our way to God on the basis of James 2:19-20 where it says faith without works is dead.  But many don't know the verse before where it says "You believe that there is one God, you do well; the devils also believe and tremble."  The faith without works that is dead is the same the writer of Hebrews speaks of in Hebrews 11:6, mere intellectual orthodoxy, or belief that there is one God.  This is not the saving faith which is enough that Paul speaks of involving repentance and trust in Jesus for our salvation that is enough.  Therefore, Galatians 2:16 holds true, that by works will none be justified before God, as well as Ephesians 2:8-10 that by grace are we save through faith, and that not of ourselves, it's the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.  How then can the popular James verses or any verses support a works-based Christianity, rather then the faith-based one Paul says started with Abraham in Romans 4:22-25?

I have understood that James was referring to the Works with the Faith as the following:\n\nA person of faith will do the works of a person of faith.\nNot charitable acts, but works of prayer, fasting, congregation and of course charity.  I'm not here to talk about cahtolicism, but, most cahtolics I know, live worldly lives, and go confess every sunday of their sins.\n\nthey don't kill, they don't use God's name in vain, they don't steal, they don't lust, however, some do not pray as they should, or use their body of live sacrifice to God in Fasting, and reading the scriptures. Most still live wordly lives and those are not the works that God wants from us.  He wants us to SERVER HIM, PRAISE HIM, AT ALL TIMES GOOD TIMES OR BAD TIMES, WE MUST PRAISE HIM, GLORIFY HIS NAME.\n\nIf I am at the club with a drink on Saturday night I am worshipping the Devil, then go to MASS on Sunday and ask for forgiveness, does that make me a person of faith?\n\nMy faith does not encourage me of having works and no faith, or having faith and no work, they both go together, by my works they see the fruit of the harvest and know that my faith us true.\n\nGod Bless,


My theory is that\nwhen matter hit the speed of light originaly it caused a massive explosion ( The Big Bang )\nnow all was expelled at the speed of light\nand for the next big bang to occur we need to hit twice the speed of light\nthis is based on E=MC2\n\ndoes it work?\nWhy does / Why Doesnt it work?

Just one doubt about your  theory,how do you know that only one big bang has taken place as you say that a second one is coming up???And tell me how you would accelerate something to the speed of light as the mass would become infinite.\nAnd according to your theory the total energy in the universe will go on increasing.You are stuck in a viscious circle!!!


I've lived with my girlfriend for 2 years now and I still love her and care for her I am just getting bored in bed and not really turned on by her anymore.  She is smokin hot so I dont know what my problem is.  I realize this is probably normal but does it go away usully or should we just call it quits?

Why not get creative and enjoy her. How a woamn looks does not determine the level of her sexual being. Stop boring her and man up pup.


This question is manly for those who believe that heaven exists but everyones oppinions are welcome!

By trusting in what Jesus Christ done on the cross. He died for our sins, He was buried and took our sins away and rose again the third day for my justification. 1 Corinthians 15: 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:


i am not inrested in taking any pills or not intrested to go to Gym. i dont eat more but i am getting fat..does suna-slim belt show on T.V Work for people like me..

I'm a nurse and used to teach martial arts back in the day. If your not interrested in a controlled more health diet and exercise or taking a diet pill...then you don't have alot of options. My suggetion is to go to the doctor get a check up for an ok to start self improvement. If you were open to it he could at that time prescribe you something to help burn fat and control your appetite and give you energy. In return you would eat less then you do now even though you say you don't eat alot but the older we get the slower our metabolism. Your energy will increase and so will your activity. You need to do some crunches and stretches and some arobic exercize to get that heart rate going, to pump some blood get more oxygen in you.\nIf your looking for a miracle theres not one. Sorry. But do yourself the favor and take care of it now. As you get older the problem will just get worse. If you end up as an older weigh ambulatory OR non-ambulatory elder you will be at risk for alot more then a smaller bodied person.


Calvin sells carpets. He expects to recieve 30% of his cost in profit. Instead, he finds out that he is recieving only 20% of his cost in profit. Then he also discovered that the yardstick he was using to measure the carpet was too long. How many inches longer was Calvin's yardstick that a standard yardstick(36 inches)?

The first answer isn't right because Calvin is trying to sell the carpet at 130% of its cost, but instead is selling it at 120%. 130/120 should therefore give you the length of the yardstick in yards = 1.083333333.... so his yardstick is actually about 39 inches. He is obviously using a metre instead of a yard.

You see,i have alot of people around me who like,love and care about me but i just don't know who amoungst them to call a friend or a real friend that is my best friend, i don't know.

You learn who are your real friends simply through experience.. Time will tell if they are true friends . It is very hard to find a TRUE friend. But if they are true, they will never lie to you or hurt you. They will be there for you through the good times and the bad, not just when things are going good. But there's no way to tell you who are real friends and who aren't.. That's something that you will figure out for yourself over time.


wanted to know my iq level and grow intelligence level and improve in aptitude test

http://www.tickle.com is renowned for its online quizzes. this includes and IQ and various aptitude tests regarding personality relationships etc


Okay... This has happened to me 3 times now. I go camping pretty often with my family and a few friends, and I have met girls a few times that I really liked, and I could tell that they liked me. Now, none of these friendships lasted after we all left (2 due to family, and 1 'cuz I was too.. oh whats the word... well it was my fault nothing carried on)\nBasically, you always hear about these people who get together, think they love each other, have sex and then it's over.\nI'm pretty damn sure I'm not like that, and that the girls I met weren't either.\n\nI'm 15 and have so far been able to live my personal life without any problems I couldn't solve myself, so please make this worth my time and give meaningful answers.\n(In case your wondering, none of these had sex involved, like the question may seem to imply)

well thts very good ur not tht type. i personely think tht u will maintain ur relations very well. so if u like any1 go tell her before its tooooooooooooo late. remember if ur in a relation u need 2 trust the person. and better see tht, tht girl also understands u well and trust u.

Hi there.  The power of having BSD/Unix now underlying the Mac OS, you'll find you have many, free options.  One of the most popular is the command-line "tar" or gzip that can be set up to regularly back up your folders (directories).  Try googling "man tar" for help.


A man entered a restaurant and sat at the only open table. As he sat down, he knocked the spoon off the table with his elbow. A nearby waiter reached into his shirt pocket, pulled out a clean spoon, and set it on the table. The diner was impressed, and asked, “Do all the waiters carry spoons in their pockets?”\n\nThe waiter replied, “Yes. We had an efficiency expert here that determined that 17.8% of our diners knock the spoon off the table. By carrying clean spoons with us, we save trips to the kitchen.”\n\nThe diner ate his meal. As he was paying the waiter, he commented, “Forgive the intrusion, but do you know that you have a string hanging from your fly?” The waiter replied, “Yes, we all do. That same efficiency expert determined that we spend 21.4% of our time washing our hands after using the men’s room. The other end of that string is tied to my penis. When I need to go, I simply pull the string to get my tool out of my pants, go, and then return to work.

PR is a disaster & now all these 3rd worlders are coming here. They have a propensity for violence & crime

Huh....\n\nIts been 10+ years since I did some consulting in San Juan, and I see no reason why they should not be allowed citizenship, nor why you would call PR a disaster. Different perhaps, but as far as a propensity for violence and crime, the seedy areas there were actually much safer than say East Philadelphia, or other seedy area's in New England. At the time, I could go just about anywhere during the daylight hours, something I wouldn't try here. Prudence was necessary at night to avoid the bad sections.\n\nUnfortunately changes in public policy and the tax breaks for working with PR got changed, and I think thats most unfortunate. Their is a great, albeit different work ethic, and the value they could provide to the US had a huge potential.

He says I'm beautiful and he loves me but I feel like I need a boob job and lipo-suction. We were both single for a few years before we hooked up and he told me that he masterbated about 5 days a week.  Now we go a week or so before we make love.  I am very frustrated and think he should find someone that turns his head.  I apparently don't excite him. I have a hard time approaching him for sex because he doesn't act like I'm interesting.  I have found porn he made of him and other women on their 1st date (weekend thing) but he doesn't want to photograph me.  Should I get out before I have NO confidence left.  I am very sexy but he doesn't seem interested.

If you are comfortable in how you look.... That is all that matters.  Pardon me for saying this, but this guy sounds like a jerk.  How come you are staying with him if you feel that he does not find you attractive?  Perhaps you should move on to somebody that will love you for "you" and not need to turn to porn for sexual gratification.  \nHave you ever just confronted him and ask if he finds you appealing in a sexual way?  I still think it is time for you to start looking for a better relationship.\n\nI can't believe you offered to let him take pictures of you, and he declined..... Most guys would jump at the chance to take some hot pics.  \n\nIf he is making you feel stupid or ugly, you really don't need that in your life!  A good partner in a relationship should make you feel happy, and he should not be afraid to show you exactly how much you mean to him.... At least that is my opinion...  If you want to "vent" more about this situation, you can always email me.. I am a good listener.\n\nI wish you luck!  I hope things improve for you!  don't let this guy get you down!

I have morpheus and just got itunes itunes.  If I have a song from morpheus i can export it to itunes, but if i have a movie (I've only tried 1, but i tried another and it worked only when i put it on my ipod, it had to convert it, but there was no sound) i can't export it...what gives?  how can i export it?

well for the losing audio u need a codic or decoder for that specific media format


If I have a large database, 10,000 clients, and want to send them information, is there any way not to be considered spammer and send them legitimate information?

This is a double edged sword.  You must have a record of your clients performing a transaction with you (tangible, like a receipt or something), and second, you must always include a link to "opt out" and provide contact info (address & phone number) in case the link is not sufficient.  That covers you legally because they have done business with you before (and you can prove that with receipts) and you are providing multiple ways for them to opt out.


My boyfriend and his roomy work together and LOVE sports: watch/talk about it constantly.  They also talk about work a great deal. I've told him that his friend's constant presence is hard on our relationship and he does not agree, he will not ask him to move out.  I feel left out and insignificant because of the 3rd wheel presence.  We are all professionals with great jobs, money is not an issue.  How do I get my point across to him?  We (he) need(s) to grow up.

it sounds like hes kind of immature or set in his ways, talk to him about it, and if doesnt see that it bothers you, cut your losses....or else get a room with two beds for the honeymoon

For almost 2 years I have been speaking to a girl on a text service for my own piece of mind as I have spent a fortune on it I want to know if she is who she claims to be.\nI know her first names her date of birth where she lives school she went to when her dad died his name and her mum's name her brother's name his kids name's. Quite a lot as you can see so any help on finding out if she is a real person would be grateful\ncheers James

Well ask her for her surname. Whether she's tellin the truth or not, she will give u a surname. Then try to find her on "Friends Reunited" website. Then see if the info matches what she told u. Asides from this, I dont know any other way u can find out. Not bein funny here, but how come u hav never met her?


I don't know but if you are keen to move to some inner counties you can get a BIG FREE LOT for building a home.\n(in Ellsworth and several other counties). So, why not make use of the free give away? They are nice little towns with nicest people...I'd love to move to some such inner cities.\n\nOf course, you can't simply keep a free lot as such, you must have the means to build a home and live there for a couple of years.\n\nIf you want info on free lot at Ellsworth, email eced@classicnet.net and ask for forms and terms. There are also other nearby locations in Nebraska... Search in google for free lots.


It is clear he has support of a lot of people.  But no one can truly agree with EVERYTHING a person has done.  What one thing has he done that you disapproved of?

Good question thank you for not ranting.  I do not like Bush's spending it is out of control and I am not a fan of his immigration plan.  To be honest with the exception of his tax cuts he is probably the most liberal president since Jimmy Carter.  I also wish he was a better public speaker.\n\nThat said I am 100% behind him on the war on terror and the Iraq war


please give me some tips; how can i put a picture on Yahoo/image/...

What you should be asking is how to put a question in the right category.


They almost look like bug bites...but I seriously doubt that they are...seeming how they are JUST on the sides of my stomach and on my arms and some on my legs.  They itch and are seeming to spread.

I have really bad allergies to pollen.  I live in an area highly populated with trees.  But, for some reason, my allergies are much worse when I go into the city for work.  Can anyone tell me why that is?

Urban areas are populated with almost 100% "male" trees, the pollen producers.  Cities don't plant "female" trees because they bear fruit, and could create hazards for predestrians, cars, etc. \n\nIn the more rural areas (possibly where you're living), there are more "female" trees, then don't have all that pollen.  Obviously, there are some "male" trees around, but not as high in concentration as you would see in the city.

Just fininshed my 7 pill free days, and I just started my new pack i took the first one on time but I missed my next one. I took it as soon as I remembered but it was after the recommended 12 hours. I also missed it last night and had to take it this morning. Will I still be protected.

When I was on the pill, I had missed quite a few myself, and I had to take double doses, and I never got pregnant.  I'm sure it is possible, but in my opinion, it is highly unlikely.  Everyone forgets to take it on time all the time.  I believe you are still protected, but don't forget, even on the pill, you are never 100% protected.  The only way to totally be protected is to abstain from sex altogether.  Good luck.

my wife and I disagree on this I think that it can only harm him to let him cry himself to sleep, he is teething and a little hard to handle at times, other times he is the sweetest baby that I have ever seen.  I say use a little more patience and try my hardest to soothe him, she takes on a more harsh approach to let him cry himself to sleep!!  (it should be known that she is a VERY hateful and sometimes downright mean person and can not get along with ANYONE at times, she is not very patient with anyone and she is Very self serving.   She wants everyone to do for her but gives NOTHING in return)  She has been referred to as a BI*CH by many most of the time!!)  I on the other hand am a lot more patient and am loved by most, im not perfect and I dont put up with any sh*t but I am for the most part loved by most!

Yes - you are wrong. A 4 1/2 month old child can only express themselves through crying - crying is not necessarily a sign of great distress.\n\nIf you have checked all the obvious things - well fed, warm, dry, comfortable (and the child has been awake for at least a couple fo hours) then your child should be able to go to sleep.\n\nRemember this - if you train your child to be rocked/sang/walked/driven to sleep this is something you will be doing for some time. It is actually kind to teach your child how to fall asleep - that way when he/she wakes up in the night they will know how to send themselves back off to sleep without any distress.\n\nTrust me - I have 2 gorgeous children who are extremely well-adjusted and confident in themselves and my wife's and my love for them, and we used what is called controlled crying with both of them.\n\nThe key with controlled crying is you do not just pretend your child is there - you keep returning to their room or cot to reassure them of your presence, but without lifting them and stimulating them.\n\nRead up on it - but you are certainly not causing him harm if you ensure that his needs are met.\n\nSounds more like you have serious issues with your wife than with your child. Perhaps that's what you should be focusing on.


maybe 12 X 15,  I did print a test run, of the ones through Kadak gallery.com. It cost 80.00 with printing on both sides of the page and a black background. Their printing quality was not as nice as a photography book you would buy from a book store.  I am hoping to  have it be 12X 15 or so....large coffee table size. and maybe a 5000 copy run.\n Anyone have any insight? I live in  the sf bay area...Just FYI

I printed my book through a company in Ohio called Bookmasters. They did a great job for me and I would highly recommend them. Here is their site:\nhttp://www.bookmasters.com/index.html


It appears that Yahoo! is very quick to remove certain questions that alledgedly violate community guidlines but not all that are reported to be removed.  i.e. It was reported 2 times that someone posted in Spanish over 2 hours ago, and the post is still there.  Mine was removed within minutes.\n\nMakes you wonder about Yahoo!, doesn't it?

Yahoo has a program which detects when a question or abuser has been reported by several people. There is a certain number of reports that will activate the delete process. After a certain number of deletes, then the person is definitely removed from this site.\nYou are not a newbie, careful!


We were driving in the Sierra Nevada range during a thunderstorm and there were several lightening fires.  My husband thinks rain would put out a forest fire better than snow...  What do you think?

I don't think there would be a difference. The intense heat from the fire would melt the snow before it touched it, turning it back into water/rain. If there was any difference at all, it would probably be extremely small.


The Jobs you are doing & how to get them?

I develop databases for companies and get to work from home a good amount of time.  You just have to learn to program and build databases.  There are many ways to do this.  SQL  is very common and very good.


do you like it on the bed, in the bathtub or on the floor?

Depends on how much u want it. If u really, really want it, then it's good on the floor. If u can wait five seconds, then the bed's good too. Bathtub's romantic stuff. I don't like it that much. It's gotta be dirty for me. ;)


I am wondering is there is any sibelius website similar to what deviantart.com is for artists...a website that I can post on where my peers can judge/comment/help me with my work.

try putting up a myspace.com page you will interact with alot of people there


Is the custom-made Dean Dimebag Razorback, that Dime made for Zakk Wylde, on sale? I want it badly.

You can not make yourself happy alone unless you love to be alone.  If you love to be alone, you will find ways to be happy.


If he needs to tan does he have to use tanning lotion so he doesn't get the skin cancer?!?!

i woudnt think that god would need tanning lotion because\n\nA. i dont think he has a physical body.\n\nB.If he wanted not to get cancer, he wouldnt have cancer\n\nC he is probably in heaven so there isnt anything wrong, like cancer.

Since Kazaa Lite Resurrection is not good, What is a good source to download music SAFELY WITHOUT GETTING CAUGHT. Is their any gurantees? how good is it? Since the RIAA is starting to catch people is your music source good?

Get free music this way :) Then they can't catch you if you don't tell anyone you did it. Check them out copy them and return them.\n\n\nMany libraries world wide have books related to the internet, web and computers in general. They also have CDs and DVDs. Go to your local public library and get the username and password for http://www.firstsearch.org/ You can look up the book yourself but they will have to order it for you. Sometimes this can take awhile if the book is checked out by someone else. After reading the books and making copies of certain pages with a photo copier simply return it to them.\n\nBy using firstsearch you can search for any book in the world. Some libraries might charge a small fee but most are free. Every web design book I have read was acquired in this fashion. :)\n\nI just copied 7 CDs today that i checked out from the library!

For Instance MLB  (New York) Mets,Yankees   (Los Angeles) Angels,Dodgers\n \nDoesnt That Just Annoy You???? I Know They Are Big Cities But, Why Dont They Give Other Cities Teams? Like Oklahoma City????

California has the most sports teams combined in all sports.  But the reasoning for this, isnt because the city is big.  That has nothing to do with it, its because the State has so much money.  They can afford to buy more than one team, an the more teams the better profit they bring in, so they can make even more teams!  Why have 1 Los Angeles Lakers team, when you can profit off yet another team, in this case the Los Angeles Clippers.  It all comes down to money.  An California not only being one of the biggest states, but richest can afford this, which is why they have many.  New York as well.  I mean, in a way it can get annoying... even I have thought that.  But if you were running the sporting agency in your state/city, youd do the samething to... or I would.  Hope that helps!


There was one of those pull open perfume sample ads in the new issue of People magazine with Angelina on the cover about the 100 most beautiful people. I think maybe the perfume was available at Kohls. Can someone with that issue of the magazine look through it and tell me what brand was in it?

Didn't see that particular ad, but if it's from Kohls, it might be American Beauty. It's their own signature line.


What type, and grain should be the best, obviously not too powerfull but with the right penetration depth IE approx 12"

the hydra shok is good, the black talon is the best, but it's not available in some places (California only allows it's sale to the police community now).  These are both hollow point ammunitions with grooves on the tip to make the bullet splay out on impact.

Run around in the hallway OR walk past someone else and then blame it on them OR spray some perfume at the same time - Glo smells very strongly.


Okay, I'm a gymnast, and I'm really good at it. I'm on level one, but hear me out. I can already do my splits, consecutive front walkovers, back kickovers, I can do a backbend standing up, a front flip, one handed round off, and I have passed every event that I have. My coach has asked me to join the team, and she always asks why I don't go to the next level. My mom won't let me! I've been on level one for a year, and my coach said with my abilities I should be progressing. I can even a front flip off of the vault table! I need help! My mom is afraid that if I progress that I will be sucked into competition and I won't get to do the things that "girls" get to do. I'm a tomboy, and I'm obsessed with gymnastics. Please help me!

I expect that your mom loves you tremendously, and wants you to have much happiness and joy in your life. It may be difficult, but do take the time to hear her out. If you can get past the "I said no" discussion to understand what her fears and hopes for you are, it may help create an opportunity for you to make your case and for her to listen to you. In the world of competitive sports, for every success, there are many who tried their hardest but didn't make it (not always because of ability alone). On the other hand, just the act of participating in sports and competition can be an amazing learning experience for you. You will learn how to work hard for a goal. I hope you are truly successful, I truly do. But, some of the best life-lessons in sports comes from our challenges and failures. If gymnastics teaches you to take care of yourself and work hard, and not give up, then those are valuable life lessons which will make you a stronger person for the rest of your life. But you see, all this takes a good deep meaningful talk with your mom. So try to give her a chance to really talk, and not just lecture. Listen to be heard.


Do you think she really believes this stuff or is it all about publicity?

Madonna has been following the Kaballah since 1992.  If you look back at her videos and even her 1993 concert tour, you'll see the red string she wears around her wrist.\n\nShe addressed this issue on many interviews including Dateline NBC in 2003, Oprah in 2004 and most recently on CBS News last December.  It was also featured in her latest documentary "I'm Going To Tell You A Secret" which was aired on MTV in October and sees an official dvd release on June 20.  \n\nConsidering that Madonna was following Kaballah years before it become "trendy" and other celebrities started following the belief system, I wouldn't think she's just hopping onto a trend or seeking publicity.  Most of the publicity she's received about it has been negative, hardly something she'd chase after!

I know that each number has a meaning according to Ancient Hebrew.  I was wondering if someone can provide me with a website or a brief rundown of the meanings of each number.

Here is a site that shows it pretty easily:\n\nhttp://www.hebrew4christians.com/Grammar/Unit_One/Aleph-Bet/aleph-bet.html\n\nthe numbers above the letters are it.


I've read that unless he/she serves in the French army he/she can't become a French citizen. If this is true, it's not much of a hurdle!!! Training to drop your rifle and raising both arms up high should be easy!!

Holy Crap you  are too funny, yea, not much of a hurdle there, French Army would be a heck of a lot easier than the US Army.  Anyways, i think the answer is no, because in order to be a French citizen, your parents have to be a citizen.  Kind of like the grandfather clause in the reconstruction era saying that blacks could not vote unless their grandfather voted, well, that was not possible since they were slaves then.  It is a way around not making somebody a citizen.  I don't think it is fair.  Besides, aren't the French kinda stuck up?  Maybe that is why, they think they are a unique race or something.  Whatever.


I was unable to scrounge up enough money to register for the June LSAT, which was really important to me because I want to register for some really high-tier schools and needed to get that LSAT score.  Can I still register early for schools like Stanford, Duke, University of Chicago, and Northwestern with a September LSAT score?\n\nNote: Early registration refers to the first round of registration for a rolling registration school, as well as the deadline for scholarship applications.

You probably can't apply to those schools without having an LSAT score already in place. I couldn't apply to the law school that I am currently attending without having taken the LSAT before applying.


well i am actually jewelery sale associate,it happens so many time guys want somethin whats simple. \ni always enjoy the look when i offer a diamond heart pendant.

Some guys tend to stay away from purchasing jewelry for their girlfriends because they are afraid of saying something that they may not be ready for and having the girl read into the gift. They figure for instance, if they aren't ready for a commitment that she thinks he is OR if he is ready for a commitment and he fears that she is not; he doesn't want to push her away. Finding a nice girl is just as hard for men as a women finding a nice guy...let's face it women are better at hiding things because they suspect us less...lol! Besides, maybe they feel that the heart is too played out and they want to get their special lady something a little more from the heart rather than a heart. Anyway, hope this helps. Take care.


Redhat linux is one of various distributions available for Linux. It is one of the better known and popular distributions.\nTo know more about linux, look it up on the internet (thru search engines) and you'll be surprised at how many distributions you'll find!


Who can you lean on when things are tough? Who's there for you when things seem hopeless?

Your best friend........always loyal, always there.


I have 2 from the same school (but it is because I double majored), by my boss has 4 from the same university (2 BA's and 2 MA's).  Is that a smart move and do they carry the same meaning after a while.  What are advantages to attending different schools at different levels?  How much does it matter in the Buisness world???

Its not necessarily bad to get all your degrees from one school and I'm not sure that it matters at all in the world of business.  Once you have a degree in business or you are out working in the corporate world, no one really cares where you went to school anyway - your degrees really just get your foot in the door.  That being said, there can be a slight prejudice (at least in the United States and especially in the world of academia, publishing academic papers, etc.) against scholars who are "home-grown."  Basically, the idea is that since you did all of your schooling at a particular institution, you were mainly exposed to one kind of thinking and your ideas about the world and/or your particular field of scholarship may not have been challenged by a wide variety of thinking.\n\nTake that for what its worth - everyone walks a different educational path and getting a graduate or doctoral degree from the same university at which you got your B.A. or B.S. can be just fine in the long run.


My husband and I just bought our two boys an above ground 4 ft pool. That is alot of water. Up until now they where only old enought for the 1 ft pools. Filling those up wasn't bad. I was wondering if there are companies that will fill them up for you for a charge. I heard from someone that you can get the local fire department to fill them up. This may sound like a stupid question but I really need help with this, so try to give good answers not smart mouth ones.

Well you could try to do the firefighter thing but it may just be easier to get a long hose and find someway to attach it to the edge of the pool and let it fill up on it's own then add the chemicals and chlorine and all of that stuff let it sit for a day or two and you have a pool full of water to play Marko-Polo


We were engaged and he got throat cancer and didn't want me to see him sick, since he watched his first wife pas away of cancer. Even though he is in remission he thinks its going to come back and thinks it will cause more heartache. I just want to be with him, no matter how long we may have.

I have seen and read that most people who visit the Whitehouse say that Bush is very nice to them if they get to see him while he works.  Consumers in our country; however, have a different view on this 'American hero'.  Which ever way you vote next fall do not vote for anyone who voted for Bush.  Each of us has our own beliefs and preferences and ideas about mankind and the sinister thing he is.  Bush and his wife ( I cant remember her name ) are both darlings of the center.


Thats all there seems to be on T.V these days.... I think they should make a channel just for Reality. Who's with me??

yes i am\nthe only one i have ever been able to watch is project runway, and even that at times annoyed me beyond belief.\nif reality shows were really about reality we wouldn't watch them because no one wants to watch what they are doing in their real life. tv is about escaping your own life and being entertained by another story or life.


I know that black holes are dead stars but my text book says thatthay aren't 2D. In all pics they are though. Any Info will be useful...

Black holes aren't holes in the sense that you're thinking of. A black hole is a region of spacetime (it has 3+1 dimensions like everything else) that has an event horizon (a spherical region) that nothing can escape from.\nTaking the rubber sheet analogy (this is 2+1 dimensional, two spatial dimensions, 1 time dimension), suppose there is a spherical mass placed on the stretched sheet. Depending on how massive that mass is, the sheet around the mass will be circularly distorted, creating a potential energy well. You can roll smaller masses by it. If you roll the smaller mass with too little tangent velocity, it will spiral into the larger mass. If you roll it with a great enough tangential velocity, it may change direction, but it will go right through the potential energy well.\nA black hole has a certain region of its potential energy well (the region inside the event horizon) where no velocity you give a particle will be enough to get it back out of the energy well; all particles entering the event horizon will spiral into the singularity at the center. Part of the reason for this is the limit placed on massive particle accelerations of only being able to accelerate up to the speed of light in vacuum. It is interesting to note that outside the event horizon (assuming a non-spinning black hole), gravity behaves classically. Ie., if the Sun were to collapse into a black hole (which it doesn't have the mass to do), the radius of its event horizon would be less than the current radius of the Sun, so the solar system would continue as usual; the gravitational field outside the event horizon is unchanged.\nAlso, a black hole need not be caused by the death of a star. Primordial black holes are hypothesized to be black holes that formed during the chaotic spacetime of the early universe.


In their efforts to appear impartial, US government agencies are always bending over backwards to treat "foreign" interests better than those of Americans and American companies.  I'm referring to parts of federal government like the State Department, Department of Commerce, Department of Transportation, etc....  Not only do we have elected officials who are giving us the shaft, but it seems like we have a whole cadre of federal employees who do the same.  Why do we elected these people to office or even pay their salaries?

Because you don't understand what's going on.


I sense 8 long years of moving from station to station has him disenchanted and not interested in establishing new "meaningful" friendships with members of the opposite sex who are professionally his equal.

Be blunt just come right out and tell him you are in love with him and if that dont work they are a lot of men out there. stop wasting you time you dont live forever. maybe when you are not around he may miss you. and come looking for you. you never know.


Sometimes when I'm writing with my pencil, the lead squeaks on the paper. It doesn't do this all the time. What is it that causes this, and how do I stop making noises in class (is it fixable?)

The same way gym shoes squeak on a floor. Pressure and angle of contact. stop pushing so hard on the paper, or try a softer grade of pencil. Try a mechanical pencil, there plastic with concealed erasure's.  Not painted wood with an eraser on the end to chew on. This only leads to ingestion of rubber which is harm full, and eventually leading to consuming paint chips and we all know what that does. Ride on....


THE INDIAN POLITY'S MUDDLE IN THE FORM OF RESERVATION IS A FRAUD ON CONSTIITUTION-TO NEGATE WHAT MARTYRS ACHIEVED-THE FREEDOM.-DR AMBEDKAR AND THE FRAMERS OF THE CONSTITUTION ENVISAGED THE RESERVATION PROVISION FOR TEN YEARS, SO THAT THE SOCIETY IS SYNCHRONISED. INSTEAD OF PURSUING THE SPIRIT , THE RULING ELITE USED IT AS A TOOL, POLITICAL WEAPON, AND KEEP THE NATIONAL HABITAT DIVIDED. IF , WE HAVE TO RESORT TO IT AFTER 60 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE, IT IS A CERTIFICATE THAT OUR POLITICAL WILL WAS NEVER TO DO AWAY WITH THE MENACE , RATHER KEEP IT AS A BLOT ON THE NATION'S FACE. THE POLITY MUST PASS A RESOLUTION IN BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT CONDEMNING THEMSELVES FOR THE SAME. SHALL RESERVATION BE PERPETUAL ( LIKE TERRORISM, INSURGENCY, CORRUPTION, COMMUNALISM AND OTHER MENACE). A DETAILED ANALYSIS IS REQUIRED TO STUDY THE WAYS TO STRENGTHEN THE WEAK BASICALLY( DEVELOPING A FACULTY TO COMPETE IN TANDEM . NOT IN ISOLATION). RESERVATION CONCEPTUALLY MEANS A SMALL PERCENTAGE . NOT THE OTHER WAY

Reservation is the easiest way to garner votes. It may not be the best way to uplift the underpriviledged by killing merit and settling for mediocrity. Do u see any merit in any Govt department? or any Govt functioning? Its like talking about a bullet train to people who have never seen anything better than a bullock cart! Now they want to increase seats.\nAlas! i wish increasing the seats in IIM and IIT would have been as easy as it is to make an Indian politician! Its so easy to make a politicians as it needs just a few lessons like\n- How to commit murders and rapes\n- How to take bribes\n- How to screw up the country by bending and curcumventing rules\n- How to act siphon of public money without being caught\n- How to sell the country\n- How to whip religeous, caste and separatist passions to garner votes\n- How to rig elections\n\nOn the other hand IIT's and IIM's are world class institutes and they make best of the Engineers and the best of managers in the world. They create best infrestructure and have to device international standards of teaching with the best vrains as faculties so its not easy to increase evene a single seat without a long planning and upgradation of infrastructure.\n\nThe problem is that people like Arjun singh think that its as easy to make world class manager as its to make a Indian class politician. The fact is its much easier to make an Indian Neta but very difficult to make a Global Engineer or Manager


Just in the last year, what has happened?

As far as I know, they have almost split again, and gotten back together, because of her son, Jonathan.


I think for you heterosexual christians it's easy to follow the bible and to judge homosexuality, but have you ever thought how it would be if you were at the recieving end of this? being homosexual and unable to change it, unable to feel love for someone of the opposite sex? do you know about the many attempts in the past to change homosexuality, and do you know that it was a torture for those people giving no results? what is then your solution? go back to the times where homosexuals could not live their love for someone else?\n\nsometimes I think, well, if I will go to hell,, then well I will go to hell, if that book is true. But who guarantees that? What would you do? I also need love and affection! and please don't quote the bible, but tell me YOUR opinion. just imagine god condemns heterosexuality and says you must be gay. what would you do?????? I feel the same disgust when thinking about heterosexual sex as you maybe feel when thinking about homosexuality.

i think the answer going through most peoples heads when reading this, is they would CHOOSE to ignore their feelings!!!\n\nCould they be with a member of the own sex though, and CHOOSE to ignore they were straight????\n\nWalk a mile in my shoes..........


....and do you attempt to convert them towards your PERCEPTIONS of the TRUTH and LIGHT???

As a non-believer most do try to convert each person they encounter to their religion


On Madison Avenue, it is a street with two northbound lanes and two southbound lanes.  I was traveling on the southbound lane when the car ahead of me just stopped in the middle of the lane.  There was not stop sign or stop light, and it was not a place where you just stop your car.  When the car ahead of me stopped, I had to stop, and cars behind me have to stop also, we were all being blocked to continue moving from this car that stopped ahead of us.  I wonder what the problem was?  So I waited, and the next thing I see is a Black youngman from the side of the street, walked accross the two northbound lanes and onto the southbound lane to get into the passenger seat of this car that stopped ahead of me and blocked and delayed all the cars behind.  I was furious as to this disregard for public safety, disregard for traffic rules, and disregard for the general public.  This car stopped to pick up a passenger in the middle of the street endangering all other motorist.  Ni Gers!!!!

Yes, EVERYONE deservs respect, even you. ;D ,and to "lady" ....obviously you haven't read your own questions or answers "What do you think when youo hear 'white woman'"----Lady wrote "I think of women that like black men, plastic surgery, dying their hair blond, fake attitudes, bulimic, promiscuous, starving insecure brainwashed and abortion having women." Plus the other crap you write.


I've figured out how to put pictures into my interests, music, etc. but here's my problem.  The text I write, writes normally until it gets to the picture.  Instead of keeping the picture underneath the text, the last bit of text lines up next to the picture making it hard to read.  How do I fix this?

When you put the code in right under it  put <br>\nstands for break. it stops that from happening.\n\nyou can also put it at the end of the code.\nuse this to put spaces between things too.


Just to let you know who it is....do a yahoo search for Moe Norman.  He's the greatest golfer of all time and he's Canadian.

moe Norman is the one u american succers.


Jesus, that great season...all for nothing. Is it time for them to dump Manny Legace? He's a choker, no doubt about it!

Legace is not the problem.  The wings got over confident!  Legace is awesome!  I will be a fan of his no matter what team he plays on!  And it BETTER be the WINGS!!!  lol


I was playing Yahoo pool with this idiot a while ago. He was bragging about how good he was and telling me how much I sucked. It was obvious he had no life. Anyway, I IMed him and he said something about "you can do a lot with someone's ip address. thanks for IMing me because now i have it." It was meant as a threat. He was probably just some lame teenager who spends all his time on the computer but I'm kinda worried.\nCan you get someone's IP address just buy IMing them on yahoo?\nIf you do have someone's IP address, can you really do harmful things with it?

Yes, the IP address is available when IMing someone.\nNo, no harm will come of it.


I really love my b/f and his 14 y/o daughter, I would do ANYTHING for either of them.  My delimmea is that I don't feel that he would do the same for me.After 2 years together he wouldn't be the 1st person I called if I needed help.\n\nWhen I try to talk to him about this and about how I feel, he gets mad & boils it down to my needing more attention. I don't feel like that at all, I'm asking to be thought about, respected and loved.  His take on it is that since he calls me everyday that should be enough, I shouldn't need anything more.  Because he needs his 'ME' time.  \n\nHe has said & done some really crappy things when he has been drinking & then says it doesn't matter because he was drunk.  I belive one is responsible for whatever comes out of their mouth, drunk or not.  Doesn't mean that you can't be forgiven, but you have to take responsbility for your actions.  \n\nI am confused, am I being too needy?  All of this makes me question myself, my confidence and who I am.

alcohol makes a person do things he/she wouldn't normally do. I think you're mistaken about him. Listen to him, believe and obey him, and help him stop drinking then prove yourself! You're just confused and need more self esteem.


(I am not very good with computer technical terms, so please answer seriously and simply.)  I have two options.  The first is a basic high speed internet.  It has a speed of 256K up and down and it is $24.95 per month.  The other is a preferred high speed internet.  It has a speed of 384K up and 4 megs down.  It is $21.95 per month for the first 3 months and is normally $42.95 per month.  My roomate needs a connection fast enough so he can play World of Warcraft.  I just want a decent internet connection for e-mail, IM, and internet surfing.  Can anyone offer any advice?

Well 256k is fast enough to play warcraft on the internet.  But if you can afford the 42.95 per month go for the 4MB down (That's 4000K).  256K is 200 times faster than your regular modem, that should be sufficient for Online gaming.


Would this make u as guys feel like u couldnt give her everything she wanted,especially if its a newish relationship an the build up was quite sexual?If everythin else was all good,would this make u feel insecure an make ui push her away?

i wouldnt break up with him over that. relationships are more than just sex. if i loved him and cared about him it would just be a little obstacle that i would overcome. love, as they say, conquers all!!


I would like to know any at home remedies or something i can purchase at a store.

Improve your nutrition.  Your fingernails are one of the telltale signs of good or bad nutrition.  Anything you apply to the nails will only be a temporary solution...you'll have to figure out what your body is missing in order to see a real change.


Kev is my best friend though he is two years younger than me.Yet there is care,understanding,affection in our relationship.Now i feel that my feelings have begun to change for him.After my break-up with my boyfriend he told me that someone special has been made for me.As reply i told him that i want someone who is loving nice and with good-qualities.He said that he has all good-qualities.When i asked him if he was not that special one he asnswered "yes,maybe,do not know".This answer has put me in a great dilemma.Was he just consoling me or giving me a hint that he loves me?I am in a great confusion.Please help me.

Tricky situation.. You both care about each other, but probably arent sure to the extent of that caring.. \n\nI know a lot of people who prefer dating people they are friends with first, but you gotta be careful and look at what the friendship means to you because if a relationship doesnt work out - how is the friendship going to change?\n\nTake some time and just think about how you feel, try talking to him about what he means to you - that should clear up some confusion - best of luck


I went out with 3 strippers.  Got set up with 2 and took one out of the club.  \n\nSex with the set ups, but only made out with the one out of the club.\n\nSometimes the girls let me touch all of them.\n\nOne time, the girl got me off with her dance.


I think you've got a mixed metaphor there!\nThere are two phrases .... "Wild horses couldn't drag me away" - meaning that the attraction of something was so great that even the strength of wild horses wouldn't be enough to pull you away from it.\n\n"To be on tenter-hooks" means to be in a state of suspense or anxiety.

I am currently reading HolyBlood/HolyGrail.

im acctually reading it it is a fabulouse book with suprises in everypage and u wont want to put this book down its basically about Jesus and it says that he has a wife a woman who is in this photo of the last supper and  basically this man who dies has written codes and in every chapter something new is revealed and there on this big chase on something that will change the history of the world forever i surgest you watch the trailor!!!


Perhaps by giving no place to law: sin & death thereof,\nChrist walked away from a head on collision with law,\nleaving the law nailed to the cross as the enmity,\nsince law is meant to be dead testator of the NT,\nwhile Christ: end of the law, who died to law,\nnotably got both risen & seated right of God,\nseated denoting law vs grace matter settled.

I don't think it was a collision, but more of a handing off of the baton, so to speak.\n\nHebrews 10:1\nThe law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.

I feel that when 9/11 happened that I supported going to war to track down and capture the jerk that planned these attacks, Mr. Bin Laden.  And I was a strong supporter of that.  But now, the war is about something else and I don't support it.  I don't ever recall supporting the capturing of Saddam and taking over their country and building it up brand new.  I don't think it's our business, I realize that Saddam did horrible things to the people in his country, but the country was in better shape then than it is now.  The focus of our war is no longer about 9/11, it's about Bush's personal family issues, he's not doing this for the good of our country, he's doing it for himself.  I'm starting to feel that 9/11 was planned, I think that it was a conspiracy within our government, and that our President had a certain hidden agenda.


I am still running Windows 2000 Pro (Service Pack 4). And honestly, I'm loving it. It is VERY stable on my system (not the GREATEST; but runs like a NEW WindowsXP machine =P):\n\n--HARDWARE/OS--\nWindows 2000 Pro SP4\nPentium III 733MHz\n60GB HD\nCD-ROM and CD-R/RW\n256MB RAM\nGeForce FX 5200 128MB PCI Graphics Card\n\n--SOFTWARE--\nMS Visual Studio 2005 Professional + MSDN Library\n    == VS 2005 is a COMPLETE INSTALL\nMS SQL Server 2005 Pro == COMPLETE INSTALL\nMS SQL Server Management Studio (2005)\nAdobe Photoshop CS2\n3D Studio Max 6\nMaya Unlimited 6\nAVG Anti-Virus\nAd-Aware 6 Pro\n.NET Framework 2.0\nAvant Browser (Web Browser)\nInternet Explorer 6.0 SP1 (required for Visual Studio 2005)\nQuake III: Arena + Team Arena\nNeverwinter Nights\nKingpin: Life Of Crime\nNHL 2004\nWinamp 5.1\nFL Studio 6.0 Producer-XXL Edition (music composition)\n\nAnd there is TONS more software. Just can't think of anymore.\n\nEACH of those applications runs smoothly, and I can run Visual Studio 2005, Photoshop, Winamp, Internet Explorer, and SQL Server Management Studio TOGETHER with no problem.\n\nIt all depends on how you maintain your PC.\n\nI love the security features in Windows 2000. And Windows XP is a MAJOR resource hog. Win2000 runs like a dream for me. It runs so smooth, it's almost like I'm running a P4 2.4GHz or something of that nature. And only on a 60GB HD.\n\nWin2000 is still a great OS. I don't care what anyone says/thinks. And I do like XP, but I can get all the same features for a LOT less CPU usage. If I used XP, it'd have to be Professional edition, because it offers A LOT more security than Home. And it also offers MS IIS HTTP Server, and Home does not. But Windows 2000 does, too.\n\nI'll use Windows 2000 as long as I can. I'll upgrade if I ever feel like I absolutely need to. All of my development tools, like Visual Studio, SQL Server, SQL Server Mgmt. Studio, Photoshop, 3DS Max, Maya, etc., are still supported by Windows 2000. So as long as I upgrade development tools, and they support Win2000, I am not going to upgrade to a later version of Windows.\n\nThat's what I think about Windows 2000. It's a great OS. And it doesn't take near as much resources/CPU usage as XP. And it runs all of my applications. So I love it, and will for quite a while.\n\nLike I said, it's all about how you maintain your PC. I keep mine cleaned up constantly. Removing ANY unnecessary programs/files/temp. files from my computer. If I ever need a file for temporary usage, I place it directly on the desktop, no matter the size, so I can easily delete it later on when I'm finished with it. =)


we are going to the kilkenny festival  in Ireland and BOB DYLAN is playing what is the festival like? its on the 24 june

I've never been to the festival, but I saw Dylan in concert two years ago. It was a terrible show. It was nearly impossible to tell what song he was playing, and his singing was atrocious. I will stick to listening to his albums. No one can take away from Dylan's talent except for time, and Dylan, I believe, is at the age in his life where he needs to just sit back. Dylan has nothing to prove to anyone, but I will never pay money to see him ever again.

If a man is 8'11 feet tall, than how tall is he in cms???? do it without a calculator!!!!!!!!!

96inches (8 feet) + 11inches = 107 inches x 2.54 (centimeters in an inch) = 271.78cm\n\nand yes, I did it in my head.


I AM RECENTLY GETTIN OVER DEPERISON AND I HAVE PUT ON TO MUCH WEIGHT IN MY MIDDLE AREA AND MY STOMIC AND THIGHS WHAT WOULD BE THE DIET AND EXERISISES TO LOSE THE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF

The best diet is just to eat when your hungry and stop when\nyou are no longer hungry. Crunches and the stepper may be\nbest for exercise.


From one point it was an altruistic move by Bush to liberate Iraqi peopel. The present administration is altruistic in mitives than ever. But the way it does it really sucks.\nSecond, gaining control over oil prices since US needs energy resources fro its further development and domination in the world. The point US Strategy for 21st century makes is that Americans will never let any country to rise at the same hegemony level it has acquired.\nThird, there were miscalculations in US intelligence circles. Look what happened to CIA chiefs.\nSummarizing - the goal behind US invasion in Iraq is complex and very misguiding, but at all it is objectively considered as a political failure of Bush Administration.


My husband wanted me to ask for this guy in basic, he smoked pot like a week ago. I guess he got drunk and didn't think of it. He wanted to know whats going to happen to him.

Most likely he will be kicked out when the results come back.


any ideas,mexican indian?like incan myan,cause he is mexican but it doesnt sound like it,could he be mixed?

Try not to get hung up on race and the idea of being mixed, as long as humans have inhabited Earth pretty much every race has been mixed in one form or another, that is how so many races have come into existences. My father's last name is Williams but we're not Germanic-Austrian. But for your peace of mind: Navarro is originally Italian, and in the late 10th century Spaniard families began to don this as a surname. The reason why many Filipino families have this name is because when Portuguese and Spanish travelers came to the Philippines, the travelers gave their names to the slaves and families that were in their possession.\nPeace.


before i explain, know that when i say other races who copy, i dont mean ALL people of the race, just the ones who actually do do it ok? and when i say act "black", i dont mean ALL black people, just the ones that are being copied by other races.......are we clear? ok ILL START\n\nWhy is it that other races (mainly latino) copy black people? \n1.hip hop movement created by blacks.\n2.Clothes and the way they are worn. (baggy/saggy jeans, du rags, grills)\n3. The style and slang that black people create also being copied. (bling, fashizzle, crunk, hyphy, ALOT other terms AND just the way blacks talk)\n4. basically anything "new" black people create, is just devoured by other races...\n\nignorant people would say that this is racist, but racist = thinking one race is superior, and if anything, by copying blacks, ur admitting that blacks better and putting shame to ur own race, so that would make you racist for acting black. U dont see black people dressing and acting like mexicans or asians.

I bet Bill Cosby had you in mind on all his speeches he delivered. You just made all black people seem like boom-box , hip-hop, gold grill idiots. I dont know what "hood" you from, but there are civilized black people, too.\n\n\nGOOD POINT VEGAS BILL!!!


What do these terms mean to you. If you don't fit any category but are political, explain your political point of view. I'm most interested in your responses.

I answer proudly to both the liberal and progressive labels. To me the defining goals of liberal politics are (in order of importance):\n-- Equality\n-- Fairness\n-- Freedom


hahaha who is saying that to you! hahaha lol\n\n"what a hotty pimp you are.... yeah! you know..."


welll, for one theirs the crosover, allen iverson made that famous. Um, theres the pump fake, that gets alot of people fooled, like whne your going to shoot and you pull up pretending like ur going to shoot, and then they try to block it, but you faked them out, adn they're like salty.


Indonesia, my country which isn't that poular, now is very sick. We're beautiful and rich, but we cannot manage it, even I can say that we're one of the worst country ever, in almost anything. Or.. you just heard 'Indonesia'?

I thought the the rules at church were too strict and that they should not have the right to tell me what kind of music to listen to the clothes to wear and whatever else my life styles were so i stopped going and every body thinks i should go back what should i do

Do you think it's about just forgetting ? Not caring ? Or just so nobody gets the points ? I don't really care about the points, but I really am curious sometimes who the asker would choose. Anyone else feel me?

If it's deserved ? Boy somebody is taking this way too seriously. Try to have a little fun with it . I personally don't know why either, if I had to guess I would say it's because alot of people aren't very nice, or considerate, and misery loves company. People are very competitive by nature and unfortunately would rather win alone than to cross the line hand in hand with their fellow people. But that's just me.

how are people able to get up and go to work the next morning.\n\nmost young people today don't start their evenings until around 9:30 or 10 pm at night.\n\nwith that in mind, how are they gonna perform the tasks of their jobs the next day without lots of errors, and or ineffeciencies with customers and or clients???\n\nand more importantly, how do they keep from losing their jobs because of insubordination, absenteeism, etc. ???\n\nand please don't start with the sarcastic comments!!  this is a legitimate question.  if your gonna just be rude, or answer with a snotty comback, please don't bother!!

If someone wants a job (or the paycheck that comes with it) badly enough, then he/she either learns to go to bed earlier or finds a job with a later starting time (maybe a 2nd shift position).


The placebo effect is the measurable, observable, or felt improvement in health not attributable to treatment. This effect is believed by many people to be due to the placebo itself in some mysterious way. A placebo (Latin for "I shall please") is a medication or treatment believed by the administrator of the treatment to be inert or innocuous. Placebos may be sugar pills or starch pills. Even "fake" surgery and "fake" psychotherapy are considered placebos.\n\nResearchers and medical doctors sometimes give placebos to patients. Anecdotal evidence for the placebo effect is garnered in this way. Those who believe there is scientific evidence for the placebo effect point to clinical studies, many of which use a control group treated with a placebo. Why an inert substance, or a fake surgery or therapy, would be effective is not known.

I want to make a new kind of doll. Do I need to send in my idea to mattel? Or do I need to do something else?

A corporation like Mattel cannot accept unsolicited designs or information of that type.\n\nWhat you'd need to do is develop your idea into something tangible, copyright the design itself (and other related information, if applicable) and then attempt to set up appointments with the specific departments of several toy manufacturers to see if they'd like to develop your idea and market it or if they're interested in purchasing the rights to your doll.


Look around the world, Israelis, palestinians, in Darfur, in Yugoslavia, ..., and in your region, so many people get killed for no reason. All I am saying is that killing of innocent people is unjuste and forbidden!! If you are mad at some politicaL ideas, then go fight with the leaderS and not with people. Tell me if I am wronge here?

Back in the seventeen hundreds we were being bled dry by England. Was war a bad idea ?\n  In the eighteen hundreds half of our country wanted to break away and form a country of their own .Was war a bad idea to keep the country together ?\n  Wars aren't fought just people enjoy killing each other.


She's really nice but i don't know if I like her anymore and I don't wanna cheat on her

"emily (or what her name is, don't call her honey or something like that), you are a good girl, kind, sensitive, pretty. and i'm sure that somewhere out there is someone waiting for you, your solemate. we had a really good time together, but i'm not your someone, i'm not your solemate. you're a swell person and i'll be happy to be your friend, but i'm sure we can't be more that friends. i'm sorry if this hurts you, but i'm certain that this is the best for both of us." \n\ndon't say anything like "i believe we should split up" "i think...".\nbe hard "i'm sure..." "i know...". certainty will get you a good reaction, while uncertainty will get you mixed up words and thoughts. be sure of what you say and stick to your point.\n\ngood luck.\n\nohh, and be sure she leaves with a smile and a good thought about you. this will prevent her evoiding you on the streets.


billions? its got to be more. zillions? more. i dont believe a math form can describe the count of every single sand speck on this earth. just think the sahara desert for one. math cannot write it but words can. like just said, too numerous to write it down in math.

The number is less than the mass of the Earth's mantle divided by the average mass of a sand particle. According to http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~ewilcots/astro236/drakeandrichter.pdf, the mass of the Earth's mantle is around 1.4*10^24 grams. According to http://www.ma.iup.edu/~hedonley/drag/drag25.html the mass of a sand particle is around 1.7*10^(-7) grams.\nThus the amount of particles in a mantle made up completely of sand would be around (1.4/1.7)*10^31 = 8.2*10^30. In America, this would be called 8.2 nonillions by the nomenclature-obsessed minority. Since the mantle is not made completely up of sand particles, the number of sand particles is less than this number, and since that number is less than infinity, so is the number of sand particles. It is thus an unknown, but finite, number.\n\nPS: Note that a "zillion" is not a real number. It is a fictitious play on the way we name large numbers and does not correspond to any exact amount. See http://www.google.com/search?hs=Xwl&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=define%3Azillion&btnG=Search .


I'm not saying don't follow God words...but i'm just saying don't be legalistic


it is said that the only thing to FEAR is FEAR its self.  but if you have nothing to FEAR how can you FEAR FEAR?

Considering I have no reason to fear anything, I don't.  What reason have I to fear anything and anyone?  I have Jesus in my heart and in my life, and that is all that matters.  Jesus' perfect love drives out fear.  So why should I fear anything?  I have no reason to, therefore I don't.

I am not a programmer but I am willing to invest time/money and go on a course to learn something so i can then manage the site myself without spending too much money

Now a days this is so much more simple then just 2 years ago and dont get me going on the hours I spent learning 10 years ago. Many web site hosting providers have pay by the month e-commerce sites that are cookie cutter and ready to go with little or no knowledge needed. I have use countless but find 1and1.com (thats the number one and one) to be the best bang for your buck. You can find almost anything you want to know about building websites by doing a google search on "Building my own website" not to mention the 100's of books you can find at you local book store. I have been building website for people for almost 7 years now and have not even come close to learning as much as I would like but if you are looking to get going look for one of the cookie cutter template sites that are an all in one. That provide web hosting, domain reg, templates (for ecomm sites) and low price. Good luck and enjoy I know I do.


(e.g. transactions, security, change management) To be discussed.. How would experts on here answer this?

could be cured by a gene therapy technique in which the normal gene is delivered to the patient via a nasal spray.  you rae the patient's genetic counselor.  Explain to the patient why the cure will not alter his or her futur child's chances of having the disease.

The only way you can prevent the person's children from getting the disease would be to change the genetics of the germ cells which pass the genes on to the next generation. These are the eggs and the sperm. They keep the original genetics that are found in the individual so can be passed on to the next generation.


When you are just falling asleep and you get a startle, you know a sudden jolt to the system?

Hypnic myoclonia or sleep startles.  Check out this link:\n\nEdited to add:  That's OK.  ;-)  I have the same reaction to dentists.


and ladies if your man said your butt looked (well sucked actually) in a pair of jeans would you be hurt by that? keep in mind you aren't shopping for the jeans or asking his opinion, you are just out doing everyday things.

I have found it's better to be silent, and be thought a fool, than to speak, and remove all doubt. For any man to tell a lady that her butt "sucked" in a pair of jeans, is not only a fool, but a mean, uncaring fool at that. And to do that to a wife???? You need to dump that cruel joker if he told you that.

I tried using the integrated windows XP backup program but it seems to only be able to back my files up as a single backup file.\n\nI am backing up mostly photos and videos and have an empty 200GB external harddrive, and want those files to be accesible and in their original state if I unplug it and take it somewhere. It would be good if I could schedule it to backup changes to the original files every now and then, including deletion. I understand this kind of backup might be called "shadow copy".\n\nPlease help!

I'm currently using SyncBackup to back up my files into my 250GB external hard drive. You can also schedule the backup. And you can also choose different type of backup, e.g. backup files that have been modified since the last backup. Hope it helps.

I was getting pop ups telling me that my trial period was over...etc. The pop up did give me an ID number.I had no idea what it was or how it got there. Before I researched this, I uninstalled what I could. Now I am reading what movie pass is about and that I should not have done that.  How can I be made to pay for something if they do not have my name or any credit card numbers?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

For want of a better description Moviepass is a program that extorts money by threatening people, saying your credit rating will be impaired and legal action will be taken.  If no-one has agreed to install Moviepass then what they're doing is illegal and you don't have to pay anything.\n\nHowever, if someone has agreed to install Moviepass (maybe as part of some other download), then you are liable to make payment which is normally $29.95 a month.  Moviepass'\nterms and conditions state that you can phone their customer services and cancel your account at any time.\n\nIf you're sure no-one has knowingly installed Moviepass then go ahead and delete it but if in doubt then phone them and cancel your account.  If you phone you'll need your Customer ID Number and they may ask for your IP address.  Do not let them put you on hold whilst your account is debited - I'm told that you'll be transferred to another number which will be charged to your phone bill at something like $4 a minute.\n\nEverything you need to know about Moviepass, cancelling your account, customer service numbers, IP addresses etc can be found here: http://profend.com/answers/moviepass

I'm not saying "Told you sooooo". I am just curious cause many people face-to-face won't admit this.

I voted for the first Bush and the second. I am not ashamed to say and no I do not regret it. He is doing a great job. What have you done for our country?
