Just wondering how was it and what was your favorite ride...

I have been to cedar point several times since the age of 8 and even worked there for a season at 18 years old. I, personally, cant get enough of it. Its one full mile of pure enjoyment, unless you dont like to walk. And even then there is a slow-moving ride that will take you from one end of the park to the other.\n\n There is something for everyone - from old west saloons with live shows, to small carnival rides, to the widest selection of the best rollercoasters america has to offer. They also have a movie theatre, a train ride, a free heated swimming pool at Camper Village, childrens rides (of course), dine-in restaurants, and a huge beautiful beach which is available for free, where you can even sign up for parasailing and jetskiing - for extra money of course.\n\n The only negative points that I can think of are:\n\nSo many people go to cedar point that the lines can be up to a five-hour wait on the newest or most popular rides. The only way to avoid the long lines, but still hit all your favorite rides, is to go there during the colder days of the season - Such as when the season begins (mid-May) or mid-September to Halloweekends. At those times it's mostly just the locals lookin for something to do on a saturday night. \n\nand\n\nThe food, ice cream, and beverages are astronomically priced. Luckily you can take food in with you, so I'd pack a large cooler(s) with lunch and a snack packed for everyone in your party and/or eat at McDonalds or other fast food just before you get there to save some cash. They have hundreds of lockers available in various sizes to keep your cooler, extra drinks, wallet, jacket etc. - just dont lose the key ;) \n\nI havent been there in 3 years unfortunately so havent tried any of the new rollercoasters beyond The Millennium Force (great ride btw). My favorite so far is still the Raptor. \n\nAnd if your feeling brave - try the Rip Cord, which is kind of like bungee jumping without the rapid "jerk-back". Its extra money, but well worth it. You can even purchase a video of yourself experiencing the rip cord.


Please provide in-depth arguments for your position.

No it is not a new form of imperialism.  Free markets themselves are just that--an economic system.  The imperialism part occurs when things are forced upon groups that are not interested in them.  So free markets are "value free" in and of themselves.  It's when a nation forces its values on another that becomes imperialistic.


Maybe we should boycott them? Then do you think it would help, improve?  Lets all unite, can we cure this ???  Lets see what we can do,yes?

some positions are getting more difficult as the pregnancy progresses...


y do u think, people at the same school who hardly know u would start talking about u behind ur back saying to ur friends and others, that u r just a stuck up snob that thinks they're hott...and that ur sooo overated? huh?huh? (guys as well as girls)

I always think that if for some reason, someone you don't know is going out of his or her way to spread vicious rumors about you, you must either be quite popular, or pretty, or clever. Or, someone that person secretly or publicly likes, made a nice comment about you. Or it could be someone you inadvertently snubbed.\n\nPeople who do this usually have low self-esteem already, they are constantly criticising themselves in the back of their head, and many of them don't even know it. So, when they meet up with someone who is loads better than themselves, sometimes it is only apparent to them, or has someone see through their pretensions, their self-loathing is exposed and the only way they can avoid having to deal with their own self-hate, is to throw mud onto someobody else. That way, they can point at the 'mud' on the other person and hope that their 'mud' will go un-noticed.\n\nIf the rumors are particularly vicious, then a confrontation may not help, as you will be dealing with a lot of hatred, and this means a higher chance of it blowing up in your face. Explain to your friends that these are just rumors, have them help you to spread the facts about you. Be friendlier, nicer, show others that the real you is different. Show courage in weathering this, and you may gain more respect, and perhaps get more friends, at the end of it.\n\nChin up, you will be alright.


Should this be up to the parents?\nIs this a reasonable requirement?\nPlease tell me your opinion.

For. If you are able to do it then you should learn about it. And sadly, even wayy back when I was in school, there were always some that did it. I had sex education in the sixth grade.It didn't hurt me at all.


wear their hair up in a bun as well as wear a long skirt at what seems to be all times.  I am wondering what this religion is and what the belief/foundation is behind this practice.

in most (not all) pentecostal churches,and a few others, the women do not cut their hair, wear makeup, long skirts and sleeves that cover the elbows. from what i understand this "tradition" (not the word i'm looking for) is an interpretation of a  scripture in the Bible about women not dressing as men and vice versa. also there is mention of a woman's hair being her crowning glory.


The church preaches forgiveness yet there is so much divisiveness inside the church...even backstabbing among members.I feel I will have a better relationship with Jesus outside the church

No u dont hav to go to church to go to heaven 1st of all do u know where is heaven? as i know heaven n hell both r on the earth itself no one knows whether there is hell or heaven after death its just our imagination just lead a happy life when u r alive no need to worry abt that going to heaven or hell do gud things, help ppl, understand them, be happy enjoy ur life if u really believe that there is heaven n hell just be simple help others u will go to heaven. hav self confidence in urself do gud things remember one thing if u do gud things u will hav a heaven life on earth if u do bad things u will hav hell life on earth i mean to say u will lead a happy life or sad life


Well my doughter asked to ask u this quastion she loves it!


why is gonorrhea easier to control than aids if both of them are spread in the same way?

Gonorrhea is caused by a type of bacteria that is easily killed with antibiotics. AIDS is caused by a virus. There are no cures for viruses. There are vaccines for some viruses, but no one has been able to develop a vaccine for the AIDS virus yet.


Below are some sample resumes for your reference:\n\nhttp://www.resume-resource.com/samples.html\n\nHere are some tips:\n1. If you have less than 10 years of experience, you want your resume to be one page.\n2. Generally, clearly show your name, mailing address, email address if available, and best phone number(s) to contact you.\n3. Then show your education, work experience, any interests, achievements, and skill sets. Under your work experience, it is not a list of your job descriptions (this is a common mistake). You should instead indicate what you have accomplished and the results.  Use action verbs.\n4. If you are looking for your first job or intend to change job function / industry, you may want to state your objectives.\n4. There is no one “correct” format.  It depends on your profession and personal style.\n5. Also, try not to use technical words and jargons. Do not abbreviate.\n \nYou can post your resume at:\nhttp://www.monster.com\nhttp://www.careerbuilder.com\nhttp://hotjobs.yahoo.com\n \nI would also go to your bookstore and find a resume book in the business/career section. You can also find more examples and templates online if you do a search.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day.

I recently Inherited A restored WW2 German Uboat, Type IX-D. It is still fully functional, but the wiring for the portside electric motors has either burnt up, or become damaged. Where could i get detailed diagrams to find to help find the cause (IE wiring charts, Blue prints, etc)?


Has anyone actually been diagnosed with OCD that can talk to me about how life is with OCD?

I have ocd.  I have to do things an equal amount of time.  Like walking on the sidewalk I have to step twice in each square and after a few steps I have to skip and do the same thing with the other foot going first.  I feel like an idiot when I do that so I'll avoid the sidewalk and walk in the street if I can.  Whenever possible I'll avoid a situation where I know I'll get stuck with my OCD.  If I have the time and patience available I'll face it and work my way through it.


Thanx it is for school so please be serious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was debating this with my Biology professor earlier.  He told me to post it on here becuase he doesn't know either.

It is due to natural selection. Those of us who can breath oxygen without suffocating survive and those who can't die.


I've having a small garden type wedding and the color is lavender - but I don't want the ole - bubble, nothing thrown at me, no sachet, candle or dust collector..any other unique ideas?

I know the feeling.I hate those ceramic figurines!!! I recently went to a wedding and they made CDs with all of their favorite love songs as favors for their wedding. That was a great idea, everyone wanted a copy and its something they could listen to months after the wedding. It is definitely not a dust collector!! Also you might want to give out something edible... like chocolate bars with your names and wedding date on it. Congrats and good luck


I'm not a very active person, but I need to do something to lose a little weight. ive been trying to go to a gym reguarly, but id like something different.\n\n I'd like to just be healthier and I'm interested in Yoga and Dance, but its hard for me to stay motivated. also i think it would be a good idea to work with some mediation, so what do you recommend for a starter program? whats a good way to get started? do you have any advice or tips? \n\nany serious advice appreciated, thanks!

Do something YOU like...but I would say, if you're not very active, try yoga.  \nThere is different kind of yoga, so choose the yoga that will fit with you.  You don't need to be very motivated to go to a yoga courses, just take your car and go there, that's it....after that, it's not difficult, you breathe, you move slowly but everything you do is good for your body.  \n\nThe more you practice, the better you will become, the better your focus and concentration will be.  So in a sens, we can say that yoga is meditation also.  Finally, if you think yoga is too difficult for you, try tai chai, it's easier !  \nGood luck !


After careful consideration, I am opting out of Gastric Bypass surgery. I want to quick smoking and begin my lifestyle change, but I have been hearing so much about getting rid of toxins and fasts to help that process along, I would like to do the right thing. I want to enter into the lifestyle change feeling healthy.

Please, don't put your health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your mind and body. Consult your doctor.


how can i find a person email address living in guyana

And why is this question in the "Special Education" category, sir?


How do i get rid of annoying people that i just cannot stand?

be polite but don't initiate any conversation, let them do it and don't give anything away. they'll eventually tire of getting no feedback from you. or you could constantly say you're busy, they'll get the message.


I like Lime wire more.....I may be mistaken, but..\n\nIt is illegal to use Limewire to download copyrighted material from someone other than the owner of that material.\n\nIt is legal if they are the owners of that material, to, download to your hearts content.\n\nI think it might be against the law in Australia, could be wrong, depends were you are.\n\nWhat is VERY ILLEGAL about Limewire that people don't realize is that if you don't read, pay attention or whatever and get fooled into sharing everything on your computer, and, some of that everything includes other peoples private information and you let everyone have it, that is not just illegal, it is wrong.\n\nIf you don't believe me, using limewire, search for images called dscn or hpim , feel free to add a four digit number after it to mix things up. These are digi cam pictures, mostly from people who don't know they are sharing everything. Searching for text documents is an awesome power when trying to find business people who are sharing everthing. I am not saying to look into or do this.\n\nSee for yourself, one in 7 should be sharing well over 5000 files, easy. This is a serious problem. I am not joking. I have been trying to stop this for months.


Like singers from opera. To catch attention.

because their larynx is still fresh, and their vocal strings are so tight.... and plus, they want attention & fear that they will be ignored. so they will be screaming & their tone is high pitched:D

I have seen many sites which claim to pay a good amount of money but they don't work. Is there any home based oppertunity to earn an average money in regular way and which really works? It should not be any network or chain system business.

1. You can sell products and run an ecommerce website like Newegg or Amazon\n\n2. You can publish information earn by advertising (through contextual advertising like Google Adsense and Yahoo Publishers Network; banner advertising such as Fastclick, Tribal Fusion and Burst Media; or your own ad sales)\n\n3. You can create members-only website and earn money throough monthly or yearly subscriptions such as most adult websites or Economist.com\n\n4. You can sell information products such as downloadable ebooks or CDRoms\n\n5. You can bring buyers and sellers in your portal such as eBay\n\n6. Sell services such as search engine optimization, graphics design, web design, online incorporation, domain broker, etc. \n\nOne article that I found very useful is "7 Steps to Successful Web Site Development" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol142/website.htm  as it takes to you all the decision steps that you need to take when starting an online business. Like any other business, startup period is full of "should I do this" or "should I do that" questions. The article is useful because it helps you think through every step of the way - from why do you want a website to who is your audience to how will you create your website to how you will market your new website.\n\nHere are the steps you need to take when creating your online business:\n\nSTEP 1: Set Your Goals - Why do you want a web site? What is the size of the online market? What are the goals for your website?\n\nSTEP 2: Develop Your Web Site Strategy - Who is your website target audience? What typically appeals to your target audience? How are the other websites (your competition) reaching out to this target audience? How will you measure your performance?\n\nSTEP 3: Set-Up Implementation Plans - What name will you give to your site? How do you envision the design of your web site? How will you create your website? How will you create your content? How will you maintain your website?\n\nSTEP 4: Start the Ball Rolling - Do you have a logo? For e-retailers, do you have the critical components needed to run an e-commerce site? How are you going to host your site?\n\nSTEP 5: Create and Launch Your Web Site - Have you uploaded your site with your chosen web host provider? Are the scripts and application you need for your website functioning well? Have you tested your website? \n\nSTEP 6: Promote Your Web Site and Measure Its Results - Do you have a plan in place to market your website? Do you regularly review your traffic logs and web site performance tracker? How are you going to get sites to link to you? Do you know the search engine keywords that you rank well? If your site is not visible in the search engine results pages for its keywords, what strategies do you intend to do? \n\nSTEP 7: Maintain Your Website and Grow Your Web Business - Continue to find ways to grow your web business. How do you intend to continue your education on web development?


Have you ever put a lot effort into a question just knowing that this is your best answer and you see the question went to voting?  Silly questions OK but when the answer is about someone's relationship or health or something serious they should at least take the time to pick best answer themselves.  No?

I am guilty of that myself.  Not every time but sometimes. They makeyou wait 24 hours, that is the problem.  Sometimes, 24 hours later I might be very busy working and that answer ge de-prioritized.


In the current market (most areas have seen a slight but noticable decrease in home sales) I would go with a realtor. Unless you have the time/experience/resources that a realtor has at their disposal available to you they will have much better luck finding a buyer. \n\nIn this market the task is finding a buyer. Last year the task was simply picking the offer and closing on the house. \n\nGood luck


in  The  Lords  Prayer, Christ, the Son  of  God teaches  Christians  to  forgive  one  another, so that  his  Father in  Heaven  will  forgive  them  their  sin[s]. But  why  cant  God  do  the  same: forgive  Satan[the  Devil],  reconcile  with  satan, and  restore  satan  back  to  heaven? Thank  you.

I'm sure He could and would if Satan repented with all his heart. God only forgives us of our sins if we repent. We are to forgive everyone and let God avenge us of the ones that have done us wrong.\nGod bless you. That was a good question.


i have yahoo messenger. i tried to log in and it keeps telling me wrong id or password and i know its not.  the smiley face in the bottom right hand corner is grey and frowning. how do i turn him yellow and smiling.

He wont turn yellow till you sign in.  Unless you have the setting that way ( i think its like invisible or busy, or not available...something like that).  Check your password, and try signing in again manually.  Maybe it has an old password saved, if you've recently changed it.

It doesn't seem to matter what i do, i always seem to wake up with a major headache in the morning. I don't like caffiene in the morning. Any ideas of why i get these headaches, and what i can do about them? thanks.

Maybe you're sleepwalking.  Maybe you get up in the middle of the night and put your head in the refrigerator door and slam it over and over again.  Do you wake up with like a big red mark along the side of your neck too?  If not, then sheesh, beats me.  Maybe you need more potassium in your diet.


I am looking for information on small business grants.  I've tried grants.gov and a few other well known sites but they aren't very specific. Does anyone know a resource that is helpful and reliable? Or of any small business contest?

Grants.gov is the main resource for grants, and it was designed to be the one-stop source of information on grants. They have a link to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance http://www.cfda.gov which is the federal database listing all available government grants.\n\nI am unsure why you would think that these resources; probably because you are be looking for grants to help a for-profit small business start or expand a business and can't find any. Unfortunately, hardly any grants exist for those purpose. Most grants are available to non-profits, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. \n\nTake for example Grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance - this grant is given only to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs. Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program, on the other hand, is given to minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT. These are very specific grant information from CFDA.gov\n\nEven if you buy books on grants or pay for lists, all they will give you are rehash versions of the CFDA database. Still, you'd be hardpressed to find anything that will give free money to small businesses owners for the purposes of starting a business.\n\nYour best bet is to check with your local small business development center, local non government organizations and local government if they have some assistance to small businesses. To cite an example, a Washington DC area nonprofit called Community Business Partnership recently entered into an agreement with the Association for Enterprise Opportunity to promote the DHL Advancing Micro-Entrepreneurs Program and the DHL Cares Project. They have been asked to select ten clients who meet the criteria for AEO/DHL program participation. Those ten clients who agree to participate in this program will receive $1000 for business development as well as free and reduced cost shipping during the program's duration. This is the type of programs available for business owners.


Both.\n\nWe are predestined for God's glory, meaning God has a plan for every life he created.  This plan is to further his Glory and to perform great things through us.\n\nWe have free will.  We chose if we are to walk this path or choose not too.\n\nSince God exists outside of time, he already knows what is going to happen.  But it is still OUR choice to walk in obedience or walk in the world.


Because when you open your mouth and the ear comes in as negative pressure; the ostacious tube which is a canal connecting middle ear to the pharynx is increase in pressure by air; then pushes the ear drum to out side (slightly) so the sensitivity to sound waves decreases, that is why sometimes we cant hear the sounds while we are yawning.


Natural only, no pill popper here. Thanks.

Something else.  Namely, the same exercise that caused shin splints in the first place.


Considering looking into FAP during residency if they even need pathologists, but need to know the difference in pay once you finish your training.  When the recruiters visited they didn't know any helpful numbers since the schedule is so complicated.  Thx.

Depends on Rank.  Unlike the civilian world the military has clinical Pathologists that are not Medical Doctors and are commissioned as Lt's.  These people would not necessarily recieve professional pay like the Doctors do.  Physicians are rountinely commisioned as Capts but I have seen them come into Active Mil Service all the way up to the rank of Lt Col.  \n\nPay is based on pay grade and time of service.  Pro Pay is based on medical specialty. (used for retention).\n\nThe Doctors do well financially.


also what are the odds that nfl is going to go on strike?

The current collective bargaining agreement runs through the 2007 season.  The rules for the last 2 years of the current agreement are somewhat different than in the earlier years, however, and could change which players have jobs and how much they are paid.\n\nThe earliest there could be a work stoppage would be the 2008 season.  Whether this would be a strike or a lockout is subject to speculation.  It would be possible for the owners to de-certify the NFLPA as a union and sign separate contracts with each player.  This could lead to replacement games similar to those in 1987.  There is also a possibility of a Federal anti-trust lawsuit shutting down the NFL if there is no agreement prior to the 2008 season.

HOW DO I GET PAST THAT AND FIND THE REAL MAN. NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE SEX ,BUT IWANT THE NEXED RELATIONSHIP TO BE THE LAST AND THE BEST I EVER HAD.SOOOO WHAT'S UP GUY'S.......PLEASE HELP LIKE I WAS YOUR SISTER.

Yes, I feel for a girl I brought home from the bar. The only problem, she just wants to be friends w/benefits.\nIf a girl says anything to a guy, especially in a bar, you immediately got him hooked, unless you are huge or hideous. Just say Hi my name is .... whats yours...? you will know imediatly if he is interested. If you pick a winner, hang out get to know him, and if he tries to take you home, have a good excuse on hand as to why you have to go,if you like him make plans to meet again somewhere, or exchange #, & get to know him more through the phone.If you want to weed out the horn balls, make him wait 3-5 dates before you get sexual. or explain to him on date 2 or 3 your intent of not screwing around untill you know your right for one another.\nI might not know much about dateing, considering I am single. but thats how I think things should be.


What is the best schedule?\nEvery when?\nWhere should I put it?

I have a few questions . . . regarding your store . . . \n\nIs it open 24 hours a day . . . \n\nIf not . . . do it while your store is closed . . . either before it opens or after you close . . . and do a couple of section each time . . . . update your inventory after you complete a section . . . until your store is complete.\n\nIf you are open 24 hours a day . . . it would be more difficult . . . but during the dead or slow periods . . . do one section at the time . . . when you complete the section the adjust your inventory to the amount purchase during your count . . . and enter your corrected amount in the inventory. . . .\n\nBasically do a cycle count of 3-5 products daily . . . and schedule the frequency do to the popularity of the items.  Especially if you are running a 24 hour mart.

I have been in a s**t relationship for a long time. I am so use to living with him and my kids that i am afraid to do anything else. deep down i am so miserable here. I want to be free of him, but at the same time i am afraid of the impact it will have on everyone.I have been an at home mom. they all need me for everything. Thats the way i made it, by doing everything. what to do for me now?

You can't just stop, but you can let go.  Unfortunately it doesn't matter who you are and how good or bad your relationship was, when it comes to change it is scary.  You have to figure out how you are going to survive on your own and while you have a responsibility to yourself to be happy and end this relationship, you still have a responsibility to your kids to make sure they are taken care of physically and emotionally.  Take your time and come up with a plan that you can live with.  Talk to a lawyer and make sure that plan is in the best interests of you and your kids.  Then execute the plan so that some day down the road you can find true happiness.


Free love and drugs and rock n roll and THEY still found the time to SAY something and do Something whatever they could i am not in any way unpatriot but this war is insane and we sit!?!

Because some of us believe that rather than taking our frustration with our President out on our troops like we did in Viet Nam, we should actually SUPPORT them.


I've been working in the same place for many years,but just 2 days ago I noticed something that I have seen before but I never wonder why.. through the window I can see a park most of the days birds flying or feeding on the ground...chasing each other.making noise..etc.. but 2 days ago  everything was very quiet no a bird on the ground. they were on the trees although it was 10am..  at that moment I began wondering why is it?  and I recalled having seen the same thing before.  Could you please someone could tell me if they have witness a similar event wherever you are.  and why is it?  There must be something that on some specific days affects the bird behaviour

On extremely cold days many birds will roost to conserve heat. If they take to the air they expose their underwings and bodies, and the short insulating feathers under the flight feathers are exposed to the cold air, so they no longer provide adequate insulation.


how are you?how are you feeling.describe your emotions..just writing a book about how peolple react in different situations...sooo make up ur situation,describe it..and describe ur feelings.thx for ur time:)

Well right now I have a project due tomorrow for school and what am I doing answering this question. I am such a procrastinator. When I get a project I say I will do it early and finish it but I always wait to the last minute. Its so frustrating when I know I could be spending time doing something I like in but instead worrying the last minute on finishing something. The other big problem is that I have to have everything just right or I go bananas and that makes it take even longer to finish something up. Well I better get back to my project I got a lot to due and not enough time.

I tried some websites.can you give me some websites or answers?thanks

The shape of Egyptian pyramids is thought to represent the primordial mound from which the Egyptians believed the earth was created. The shape is also thought to be representative of the descending rays of the sun, and most pyramids were faced with polished, highly reflective white limestone, in order to give them a brilliant appearance when viewed from a distance. Pyramids were often also named in ways that made reference to solar luminescence. For example, the formal name of the Bent Pyramid at Dahshur was The Southern Shining Pyramid, and that of Senwosret at el-Lahun was Senwosret is Shining.\n\nWhile it is generally agreed that pyramids were burial monuments, there is continued disagreement on the particular theological principles that might have given rise to them. One theory that has gained a degree of acceptance is that they were designed as a type of "resurrection machine";[8] the Egyptians believed the dark area of the night sky around which the stars appear to revolve was the physical gateway into the heavens, and co-incidentally, one of the narrow shafts that extends from the main burial chamber through the entire body of the Great Pyramid points directly towards the centre of this part of the sky. This suggests the pyramid may have been designed to serve as a means to magically launch the deceased pharaoh's soul directly into the abode of the gods.\n\nAll Egyptian pyramids were built, without exception, on the west bank [9] of the Nile, which as the site of the setting sun was associated with the realm of the dead in Egyptian mythology.


I know there's HALF.COM, but i would like to know which other websites offer good deals for used books.

anything being ESP to astral projection...anything at all...keep an open mind. just because you cant do it...dont right away turn it down.  everyone might have it...just doesnt know how to use it.

Absolutely!  There are too many unknowns out there to dismiss life's mysteries (like ghosts or aliens).  I think we all have felt very strange and unique impulses that we couldn't truly define, which when acted upon helped us either avoid bad situations (like choosing a different route to work that helped us avoid an accident) or feeling like something good was about to happen and then running into an old friend.  \n\nIf this type of stuff interests you, you should read the book The Celestine Prophecy.  It's a fiction book that helps bring home how few coincidences there are in life.  In other words, most things are supposed to happen for a reason.  It's a fun read that won't take more than the weekend.  \n\nLastly, I don't know what "astral projection" is, but I'm going to Google it and check it out.

Looking for a support group? How is it best done?  I want to start a business.

Hi,\n\nBy far the best "support group" I have found was at the Business Owners Idea Cafe, they have so much information as well as the "cybershmooze" which is a forum of like minded people (small and home business owers and people that are aspiring) they have articles with tips, interviews with ideas and inspirations, forms for tax purposes etc. they are great. An dthe popel there are so wonderful, they will give you low cost marketing ideas, help you name your business (if you get brain freeze), give away ideas for prospective businesse and also try to help you avoid the mistakes they made during their own start up phases.\n\nGood Luck

Since opening the floodgates to every nationality under the sun, terrorism, religion, and crime has run rampid throughout our once safe streets. We now lock our doors in addition to adding security systems to our homes. It was not like this 30 years ago. I want to go back to knowing my neighbor and feeling safe.

nah, don't think that will happen. America will always have different nationalities, religions, or whatever.

find the fifth term in the expansion of (d+2e)^7.\n\nI just wnat to know, how are you able fo find J?

The first term is 7C0 d^7 (2e)^0\nThe second is 7C1 d^6 (2e)^1\nThe third is 7C2 d^5 (2e)^2\nThe fourth is 7C3 d^4 (2e)^3\nSee how the pattern works -\n\nThe fifth term is 7C4 d^3 (2e)^4\n\n7C4 = 35; (2e)^4 = 16e^4; 35 times 16 = 560\n\nSo it simplifies to 560 d^3 e^4.


I was just curious to know if the intestinal tapeworms from such areas as undercooked beef or fish can produce a tapeworm that will grow long enough that it will invade the human brain. Possibly eat away at it, or purtrude possibly or cause any other brain damage. I know that pork can produce tiny worms that reside in the brain, but I just want to know if the longer ones can as well, or if there are any cases already known of.

no because your intestine is part of your gastrointestinal system which is not connected to your brain.


No I don't think so. Our brains work by electro-chemical interactions.\n\nWe'd be much smarter I think if our brains worked like a quantum computer. Or, we could not make any decisions at all as all of our decisions will be in a quantum flux, and dictated only by the laws of probability. So we'd be making random decisions!!

My husband loves to fall asleep in front of the TV every night and it really bothers me.  I feel that if he is that tired, he should be going to bed.  So first, I'd like him to spend more time with us but also...I feel it's a waste.  I don't know how to express my feelings without hurting his feelings and by making sense.  Any ideas?


Have tried, is there somewhere I'm not looking?

I am sick of my Father snoring so loud.. Any one please help me to help him.....

He may suffer from sleep apnea.  First see if his health insurance would cover an overnight stay in the hospital to see if he suffers from that, if so get him in to get tested.  Alot of people middle aged to older aged individuals who are overweight and snore suffer from sleep apnea, which is the lack of air when sleeping.  So, he is actually not getting a restful nights sleep and may feel tired during the day.  If they do find out he has that, they will have him sleep with a breathing machine to help him get a GOOD RESTFUL night's sleep WITHOUT snoring!  ALOT of people suffer from this!


i have read all these so-called contradictions and none of them makes sense... because everything in the Bible is like a finely knitted garment.  These ppl find so-called "contradictions" because they do not have the Spirit of God.\n\nUnbelievers are unable to see.\n\nThe Spirit of God is real and personal.  No human being can come to God, the Father must draw them, they must be convicted by the Spirit of God in order to come.\n\nWhy don't u, my Brethren, express this more?  Where did the more personal evangelists go?\n\nIn certain senses, some give dogs what is sacred, and they throw their pearls to pigs. They are only going to trample them under their feet.  Then u feel so bad and low.\n\nur thoughts.

There are no contradictions, only errors in translation or taking the verse out of text.


If you are say yes. If yur not do you still celebrate it.?

No I'm not Irish and I don't celebrate St. Patty's Day. I do like when they dye the Chicago River green though, that's pretty cool. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all of you who celebrate!!


To my understanding, Google help Chinese Communist Party to filt  \nsearh result, so the search result only have hate propoganda to Falungong, Yahoo help Chinese goverment to search the email history, so Chinese communist part arrest the journalist and sentence him to jail for 10 years, only because he fullfill his duty, send a real News as a ordinary journalist to his boss.MSN also delete a people's personal blog, only he tell some truth about China, so his blog is very popular and famous, under pressure of Chinese government, Microsoft do such things.\nChhinese Communist party really do lots of Bad things, they take Falungong people's kiddney when they are still alive, and sale it. and they they burn their body, even they are still alive, a reliable message said that there are at least 4000 such cases.\nPlus, more than 2800 Falungong people is already known tortured to death. \nI am not sure, when yahoo, MSN, Cisco, Google help CCP to persecute people, is it legal?

While I'm not sure on many of the specifics, I do know that google and other major webportals have been criticized for assisting the Chinese governments censorship efforts.  In the end it comes down to money.  With 1.3billion people China is the largest growth market in the world and the company that lands the state contract for whatever service they are pushing will make billions in the long term.\n\nYes it’s perfectly “legal”, China is a sovereign nation with their own laws and civil protections (not sure what these are, guardrails maybe?).  It seems wrong to assist them from a Western ethical viewpoint, at least to me.  Corporations however are rarely moral and seldom very ethical entities, especially when the government isn’t encouraging them to be in the form of huge fines.\n\nRegards,\nArmus


Please back up your answer with some sources.

The ones that you never hear about who don't make money off it.  They are the ones that keep it between themselves and close relatives and friends and have no desire to let the world know about any of them.

I have one that reccomends a 350W power supply running off of a 250W but then I don't have all of the bays full on that compuer.  And it's my dads and it's old so I don't really care either way.  However on my PC I have a 500W power supply and I got it for $21 and I would recommend that you do get a better power supply if you are going to play a lot of games.  That being said... the X1300 isn't that great of a card, I would have gone with at least the X1600 if not something in the X1800 series.\n\nOh, here's the link, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817255010 to the power supply that I got, out of stock as of this post (make sure your motherboard is compatible with standard ATX power supplies, some aren't like Dell PCs).

My mom has been drinking every night of past few years now. she smokes least 1 pack of cigarettes a day too. She complains of pain in her stomach and says must be some infection and all. I lost my dad last year to cancer and my moms sister has got cancer too few months back. I hope my mom wont get cancer from booze.

Cancer has many causes, depending on the area of the body involved. \nCigarette smoking, alcohol and family members with the diagnosis are not a very good combination and your mothers chances of developing it are increased. \nTalk to her about it and together look for more information so you'd be able to take better care of yourselves.\nAlso, it wouldn't hurt to go get that stomach pain checked, it could be an ulcer and is best not left untreated.\nHope this helps.


Is there even such thing as the white race anymore or has this been stripped away by our government? I see black colleges, jewish organizations, Ucranian Credit Unions, and the list goes on. If seperation is racism, why is this not???

Different strokes for different folks. We live in a society today that has everything no matter what it is blown way out of content or context which ever you want to use. People in this world are not going to let a sleeping dog lye sleeping without wanting to wake it up. You wake up one morning and say I will start this new program and the next thing you know someone will come along and ask why didn't you ask me if I wanted to join. Bingo conflict.


I mean seriously. Theyre nothing more than a giant Operation Ivy rip-off. And I dont care what you say, they have nothing, nothing at all that even resembles punk. Can someone please explain to me what is so appealing about Green Day?

I agree. I find them very tiresome. But then there are so many tiresome artists with so many fans (eg. Bon Jovi, Kelly Clarkson, Nickelback I could go on). So the question is not why do people like Greenday but why do people like all this humdrum monotonous crap going around.


well i kno they come here to ask and answer questions but there are other reasons and plz no email addresses i will not answer them

because i'm addicted to this place. I can't go a day with out going to this website and answering some questions.


I have a few credit cards that I haven't used in a few years. I noticed they expired, but I did not receive new cards. This happened from two different companies, so I doubt that both companies forgot to send new cards? Can they cancel me like that?

Have you moved since you stopped using the cards?  I would go on www.AnnualCreditReport.com  Get a copy of your report to make sure there are not any problems.  Its a free service provided by the 3 major credit bureaus.


Beside cops, and security officers.  Thank you for your answer

www.USAJOBS.gov The federal government has thousands of jobs open in your field. You can work in any state and hundreds of different divisions.

What wold YOU like to do with a criminal justice degree? I think it's pretty open.


he has lots of plans and ideas and gets excited when talking about it but then he never does anything. I have offered to help or call someone to come over and help but he gets mad at me when I comment about him not doing anything.

I have had the same problem with my husband.  Here's how I've handled it...\n\n1)  Don't nag.  He'll just resent you for it.\n2)  Suggest that the two of you go out and buy the tools and other items you need to start a project.  Nothing makes a man happier than buying new tools!\n3)  If he doesn't start the project after he's bought the necessary equipment, then YOU start it (even if you have no clue what you are doing).  Once he sees you about to "mess" something up, he'll HAVE TO HELP!\n\nGood luck!

why do the little ppl believe in santa and stuff?! they r lik so weird! they don`t exsist?! and y do parents keep it frm them 4 so they believe in them 4 so long n then break thier heart? happened 2 me a while ago. i wish they would stop! GOD.

My husband and I agreed, much to the dismay of my family, that we would never tell are children that Santa or the Easter bunny brought their presents.  We feel that if you lie to a child once about something as small as that, they will choose not to believe you about other more important things, they will label you a liar, and we didn't want that. Our children are fine and don't care, my son has agreed not to tell other children out of kindness, and my daughter one year decided to believe in Santa on her own, and then the next year told us he wasn't real, that mommy and daddy were Santa.  So, I guess in the end kids will figure things out for themselves.


i had sex with my boyfriend 2 days ago and i came on my period right after that,i did not suppose to come until april 7th the condom broke, i am feeling sick and i am also worried that i could be pregnant is ther any chance that i could be. i spoke with a nurse and she told me that because my period came does not rule out pregnancy because the blood had already started to get ready to come for the month of april, i just want some advice from some other people,i would really appreciate it.. thanks :)

I really doubt that you are pregnant but stranger things have happened.  If your period started, just shortly after you had sex, you were already past your fertile period.\n\nWait about a week and do a home pregnancy test...follow the directions exactly.  If you are still worried, see your doctor for a blood pregnancy test.

I am planning to sell a guidebook, but the images and videos in the guidebook contains a trademarked logo of a well known company. This logo is just a background, and in no way using it to promote the product.\n\nWill i get sued by this company, or tell me to stop selling it, if i sell this guidebook to make money??\n\nFrom what i have read, if i am using it as a teaching tool even if its for commercial use, then it is legal. Correct?\n\nCan anyone help on this.\n\nThanks!

It's legal if they say it is or give you permission for the use.  \n\nYou can go to the website of the company and check their licensing/terms of use regarding their logo. \n\nFor example, click here to see legal information from Pepsi web page: http://www.pepsiworld.com/help/legal/index.php \n\nIf you don't want to or can't get permission from the company to use the logo, and it is not integral to the guidebook, just blur it out.


Currently in California and moving to NYC in July. Looking for an apartment to rent in Manhattan. Will have only 2 weeks in July to look for it. Whats the best way to go about it without using a broker (expensive!)?

Do searches for "no fee" apartments\n\nGo through the classifieds of the villagevoice.com and nytimes.com\n\nBe careful about using "apartment share" services where a company will find you a roommate, many times you can be paired with complete psychos or convicted criminals. Many apartment sharing services do not do any sort of background check whatsoever.


would like to find out how much my chess board is worth or where it came from...

There is a show on PBS called "Antique roadshow" They should know, and they travel to different cities and asses things for people for free. You could also look in the phone book for an antique shop, who would have an idea. Good luck!


Depends on what you are looking to correct.  Could be a supplement deficiency, diet adjustment, stress.  Must be USP grade, because herbals have active components to be effective.  I would recommend reading one of the books, "what your doctor may not tell you about.." series by John R Lee MD.  Natural progesterone cream is very effective in balancing hormones, because it is a precursor to many other hormones.


Some people state that in the united states since white people are not a minority and the government is mainly white males you can not be racist against white people. You can be prejudice but not racist. I disagree with this wholeheartedly but I'm still curious to know what the truth is. If anyone can help that would be great.

Being a racist against white people is just as possible as being a racist against blacks, hispanics, or asians.  There are groups that are racist towards white people.  "The Black Nationals" is the most prominent right now, although the "New Black Panthers" is catching up quickly.


In 2005, 47 States required speech-language pathologists to be licensed if they worked in a health care setting, and all States required a master’s degree or equivalent. A passing score on the national examination on speech-language pathology, offered through the Praxis Series of the Educational Testing Service, is needed as well. Other requirements typically are 300 to 375 hours of supervised clinical experience and 9 months of postgraduate professional clinical experience. \n\nSpeech-language pathologists usually work at a desk or table in clean comfortable surroundings. In medical settings, they may work at the patient’s bedside and assist in positioning the patient. In school settings they may work with students in an office or classroom. Some deliver services in the client’s home. While the job is not physically demanding, it requires attention to detail and intense concentration.

I seem to wait too long to make my moves on girls, and I become the dreaded "you remind me of my brother" comment, which puts the braeks on any sexual relationship, It seems many times girls want you to make the move and if you wait too long its over ! I need to feel comfortable 1st, it really sucks !

As long as you make your time with her romantic, you don't need to be in any rush to be sexual with her and you can still avoid the "You remind me of my brother" comments. Just make sure when you guys are together it is obvious that you are not her brother, not just her best guy friend.. as long as you keep that at bay you can take as long as you need to be intimate with her.


I know that there are many ways to do so and that some ways may work better than others. I know that there may not be a "Best Answer" but I am asking this question for debate purposes only and will leave the best answer up to voting.

dont do it again,thats what i did 3 years ago and i havnt smoked since.


is there a unidirectional capacitor that charges through one terminal and disharges through another simultaneously and also multi terminal.

Sure, it's called a Non-Polarized Capacitor. Available at any electronics shop.


I am a begining statistics student and cannot figure it out.

It applies to Histograms:\nThere is more to be said about the widths of the class intervals, sometimes called bin widths. Your choice of bin width determines the number of class intervals. This decision, along with the choice of starting point for the first interval, affects the shape of the histogram.There are some "rules of thumb" that can help you choose an appropriate width. (But keep in mind that none of the rules is perfect.) Sturgis's rule is to set the number of intervals as close as possible to 1 + Log2(N), where Log2(N) is the base 2 log of the number of observations. The formula can also be written as 1 + 3.3 Log10(N) where Log10(N) is the log base 10 of the number of observations. According to Sturgis' rule, 1000 observations would be graphed with 11 class intervals since 10 is the closest integer to Log2(1000).


yahoo messenger? if yes..i only have 3 people and i want some more so if u wanna talk to me leave ur username thingy so we can chat...(if ur nice ill give u those 10 points)

burns when urinating. lasts 30 min to 45 min

It could be either a urinary tract infection, or bladder infection.  You should really go to a doctor and get an antibiotic cause if you don't you might end up with a kidney infection and that could lead to permanent kidney damage.


After an evaluation with a psycologist, I got a number with the initials "GAF".  I would like to know what that stands for.

Global Assessment of Functioning.  \n\nConsider psychological, social, and occupational functioning on a hypothetical continuum of mental health-illness. Do not include impairment in functioning due to physical (or environmental) limitations. \n  \n\nCode (Note: Use intermediate codes when appropriate, e.g., 45, 68, 72.) \n  100 \n| \n91 Superior functioning in a wide range of activities, life's problems never seem to get out of hand, is sought out by others because of his or her many positive qualities. No symptoms. \n90 \n| \n| \n81  Absent or minimal symptoms (e.g., mild anxiety before an exam), good functioning in all areas, interested and involved in a wide range of activities, socially effective, generally satisfied with life, no more than everyday problems or concerns (e.g., an occasional argument with family members). \n80 \n| \n| \n71  If symptoms are present, they are transient and expectable reactions to psychosocial stressors (e.g., difficulty concentrating after family argument); no more than slight impairment in social, occupational, or school functioning (e.g., temporarily falling behind in schoolwork). \n70 \n| \n |  \n61 Some mild symptoms (e.g., depressed mood and mild insomnia) OR some difficulty in social, occupational, or school functioning (e.g., occasional truancy, or theft within the household), but generally functioning pretty well, has some meaningful interpersonal relationships. \n60 \n| \n| \n51  Moderate symptoms (e.g., flat affect and circumstantial speech, occasional panic attacks) OR moderate difficulty in social, occupational, or school functioning (e.g., few friends, conflicts with peers or co-workers). \n50 \n| \n| \n41  Serious symptoms (e.g., suicidal ideation, severe obsessional rituals, frequent shoplifting) OR any serious impairment in social, occupational, or school functioning (e.g., no friends, unable to keep a job). \n40 \n| \n| \n| \n31  Some impairment in reality testing or communication (e.g., speech is at times illogical, obscure, or irrelevant) OR major impairment in several areas, such as work or school, family relations, judgment, thinking, or mood (e.g., depressed man avoids friends, neglects family, and is unable to work; child frequently beats up younger children, is defiant at home, and is failing at school). \n30 \n| \n| \n21 Behavior is considerably influenced by delusions or hallucinations OR serious impairment, in communication or judgment (e.g., sometimes incoherent, acts grossly inappropriately, suicidal preoccupation) OR inability to function in almost all areas (e.g., stays in bed all day, no job, home, or friends) \n20 \n|  \n| \n11  Some danger of hurting self or others (e.g., suicide attempts without clear expectation of death; frequently violent; manic excitement) OR occasionally fails to maintain minimal personal hygiene (e.g., smears feces) OR gross impairment in communication (e.g., largely incoherent or mute). \n10  \n|  \n1  Persistent danger of severely hurting self or others (e.g., recurrent violence) OR persistent inability to maintain minimal personal hygiene OR serious suicidal act with clear expectation of death. \n0 Inadequate information. \n\nThere is a similar scale for children - the CGAS.  As a therapist, I can use GAF scores to track whether or not someone is improving.  They are somewhat subjective - I might rate someone at 45 and another therapist might say 40 or 50 depending on the situation.  It's not a huge deal to most people, your diagnosis and treatment should be your primary focus.


my friend (a girl) tells me to go out with a friend of hers whove ive known for two years now... and she likes me, but i dont like her. and everyday when she asks me she calls me the gayest fag ever, a fudgepacker, gaya$$ queer, everything if i dont aske her out. she doesnt stop calling me names like that and ever since public school, ive been called gay, which im not. im afraid if the girl who likes me will ask me out then ill have to say no and i dont want to hurt her. WHAT DO I DO!?!?

first of all, if that girl was REALLY you're friend, she wouldn't say something like that to you. And second of all, the next time you visit the girl, explain to her that you don't want to have as a girlfriend but it will be just fine for you two to be friends.

I was taught a meaning in a Bible study years ago.  I want to check it out.

Methuselah or Metushélach (Hebrew מְתוּשֶׁלַח / מְתוּשָׁלַח "Man of the dart", or alternatively "when he dies, it shall be sent" Standard Hebrew Mətušélaḥ / Mətušálaḥ, Tiberian Hebrew Məṯûšélaḥ / Məṯûšālaḥ) was the oldest person whose age is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. He reportedly reached the age of 969 years. According to the Book of Genesis 5:27: And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died. (ASV)\n\nHe is mentioned in Genesis as the son of Enoch and the father of Lamech (father of Noah), whom he fathered at the age of 187. His name has become a general synonym for any living creature of great age.

Any information about how to remove wetlands, or the cost, or where i can find the information would be great.  Thanks for your help!

There is no way of knowing the answer to this question because we have no idea what the lot is like or its size.  There are lots of restrictions on filling in wet lands because you are destroying a habitat so it might not even be legal.


What makes a good customer?  give specific examples.

If you have a reservation, please be on time.\nIf you do not have a reservation, please don't take it as an insult if you see an empty table and you are not seated...that table may be reserved already.\n\nYou wait until you're actually ready to order before you begin ordering...a watress/waiter doesn't mind if you say "I think we need a few more minutes" but it drives them crazy if you make them stand there rewriting your order for 10 minutes because you have not decided.\n\nYou carry on your conversations in reasonable tones so that you don't cause other guests to complain.\n\nYou keep your children under control.\n\nIf you spill something, tell them...it's often easier to clean up a mess right away, even if it means reseating you.\n\nIf there is a problem, please say so but as politely as you'd want a problem brought to your attention.\n\nPay the check fairly soon after it arrives at the table, even if you will linger over an after dinner drink for another half hour...this allows for the bookkeeping tasks to be done while you linger.\n\nLeave if you notice that "closing up" tasks are being done...candles blown out on other tables, cleaning up the waitstation...let them get off work on time.\n\nTip decently and say thank you.


this questions is for those who are atheists. what makes you so sure that there is no God? i mean is it because you were raised that way or you have just never really truly experienced him and therefore don't know wat to believe? jus curious.

To "Just my opinion"...I am a very good person and I am atheist. I do not deny the existence of god out of fear. I just don't believe. I am not afraid of hell because I have no reason to be afraid.  I do nothing that would be constituted as "sin" either.  I do not have to fear hell to be a good person!!  It is sad that most religious people are only truly good people out of fear.  They do not seem to do anything for anyone else for any reason beside their own self benefit...heaven.  I am not in denial.  I think that it is you who is in denial...you need something to explain what you do not understand.  You do not want to accept that there is no purpose for human existence and that you only have one life.  I guess I understand why people believe.  It would be comforting to think that after death, there is something else.  I prefer to live life  based on fact, and live the one life that I KNOW I have to the fullest.  Not to WASTE it worshiping something that is not even there!! (Sorry if I have been offensive to anyone else besides this guy)


I have always shared rent with other guys and think it would be nice to give a women a chance.Most(not all,I know)women are tidy and respect your things.My roomate is moving in with his girlfriend and I need to find another one.What are your thoughts?

honestly i would love to be so close to a guy that i could room with him with no problems, it would be a challenage but i think a good one although it would cause some problems we tend to be more demanding and etc. well you should no that do you have a girl as a friend? if so ask her to room if not it may be a little hard to get a female to trust you enough


I heard about a case in England where they wanted to kill a doctor that had wanted him hung. Mr Cockerell from Scunthorpe was leading some kind of posse to hunt him down in prison because the British don't kill prisoners. Is that morally right?

Depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the body.


my g/f started taking 20mg of Prozac a day in the morning for about one and half months now.  She just broke up with me a little over a week ago, due to what she called a declining amount of attraction to me. We have been going out for almost a year. In the last few weeks while she has been on the anti-depressant she has not had an orgasm.  I have try to get her to talk to a doctor about this but she say the dose is too low to effect how she feels about me.  I feel different however before she took the anti-depressants she said she was in love with me, however after about two weeks she started to question the relationship.  she is currently taking 20mg in the morning of Prozac.  Could the drug be the cause of her losing her attraction to me?

One side effect of anti-depressants is lack of sex drive. She could try another medication to see how that works. Or she could get off the meds completely. However, she may not want to deal with the depression instead. She should talk to her doctor about this reaction. For some people, it takes only a small dose to have the effect. You might call her doctor and mention it to him if she doesn't. But the doctor cannot talk with you about her condition because it would be invasion of her privacy. However, there's nothing to stop you from telling the doctor what you observe.


I am using Outlook 2000 on Win 98 to retrieve POP mail.\nSince Mar 13 no messages are showing up even though I know I am getting them.\n\nAny suggestions?

Or at least point me to where I could get some assistance. Thanks!

Yes, it sounds weird, but I swear, a Chemistry friend of mine did it. And it worked. Basically, put some rubbing alcohol in a container, put it on top of your CPU and have a fan blow on the rubbing alcohol. Since it has a lower freezing point than water, it should help to cool it down further.\n\nBut, seriously, what are you doing to it? Because it takes a lot of effort to get it that hot, especially it being what it is. Does the room you have it in above 80degrees F? That might be an issue. Did you build your PC? Sometimes they may have overclocked it for you and you don't even know it.\n\nHope you find a solution. I seem to be stumped. Sorry, good luck.\n\nATTENTION: Addition, please read\n\nReceived your inquiry but I can't seem to reply back. It says that your e-mail address has yet to be confirmed. Hope this gets to you.\n\nIn answer, when they say that your processor speed is say 2.2Ghz, that is not your maximum running speed but your optimum. It is not good to run it faster than optimum as that could cause increased wear and tear. You can however tweak it to run faster.\n\nOne way to find out is to take the name of the processor and check it directly with the manufacturer to find out what the speed is. As I don't have any of your specs, that is all I can say.\n\nPS: Have you talked to the Tech Support about this? I think you should if you haven't.\nPPS: Silly question, but have you checked to see if there is enough coolant or water in there?


how do i get to the place i need to be to im some one on yahoo

Messenger.yahoo.com then downlosd the system


This would be for AIM, MSN, YIM, IRC and the like.

You can try TRILLIAN or GAIM. But the problem with TRILLIAN is that only one user can use it. If more than one person uses it then the both the users will be able to see the friends of the other. So its better to try out gaim.

I am 38. I am not married, I do not have kids, I do not have a girlfriend, I am not gay. And I'm not ugly\n\nOne of my sisters found out that almost all of my friends are young women between the age of 23 to 28. We are just friends. She threw a fit. She said I was having a mid life crisis. I am not sleeping with any of them, I’m not trying to sleep with any of them. We just hang out. I’m not in a rush to bet a sports car, nor have I grown a goatee or a pencil mustache. I have not joined a gym, and I do not have a fake tan. And a few of my friends are women who are over 50. \n\nSo what gives?

A midlife crisis is when you realize that you're going to die and you run back to youth for comfort only to find out that you should have taken better care of your body and mind in your youth ... and also that you don't understand anyone anymore which makes you try harder to fit into a social group that you don't belong to anymore.

When my 5yr. old daughter died in a car accident almost 6 years ago I lost my belief in God for a period of time.  Has anybody else felt the same way and how did you get your faith back?

that was a very terrible problem...\ni'm sorry for what had happened to your daughter.\n\nsometimes life is unquestionable, even... it's unanswerable.\nwhatever you are going through in this life, god knows. he knows the best for your life, eventhough what had happened to you seemed so unfair. god said, god works in all things for your goodness. can you see the positive side from the problem you have?  if you havent, you will.\n\ni did something bad a few years ago i blame it on god, why did he let me do it. but... today, i know he let me experience it for my own good...\n\nhow can you bring your faith back? it cant leave you, it is inside you, you just have to awake it... ask for gods grace...

I know that pineapple was brought in from Spain but would like more info on the history of how this industry began and ended.

This site should help you:\n\nhttp://oahu.aloha-hawaii.com/tours/dole+plantation\n\nHere's some info from that site:\n"It’s believed that the pineapple originated in the lowlands of Paraguay. Historians believe the fruit was introduced to Hawaii in 1527, after a Spanish shipwreck near the coast of South Kona on the Big Island brought a number of goods to the Islands. In later years, a Spanish adventurer named Francisco de Paula Marin experimented with raising pineapples in Hawaii in the early 1800s. James Dole would later pioneer the pineapple industry, earning acclaim as Hawaii’s "Pineapple King.""


Is this forum simply enabling people in their laziness?

Not everyone is very good at using a search engine. It does take a little bit of familiarity and skill to find what you're looking for. I've seen people type into a search engine something like: "Where can I find plant food in New Jersey?" .... obviously not a good search. You and I know that '"plant food" "new jersey" store' would be a much better search.  Using google is easy to you and I and many other people but consider this: Think about the intelligence of the average person you know. Consider how dumb they are, then realise that half the people in the world are dumber than that.


There are many democracies in the world but I thnk they all chose this form of government themselves and either fought for it from oppressors or instituted it themselves in a revolution  or internal change. Most effeorts have failed and eventuated in a dictator ship as with Cuba etc. There are not enough George Washingtons. Some people do not feel comfortable with the responsibility of freedom and prefer to be told what is right and wrong by their religious leaders and books. But maybe they can be compelled to change their minds and eventually see the light. maybe not. what do you think?

Nobody can be "forced" to be free-in that case,it's not really freedom,just another kind of coercian.Not every culture in the world subscribes to Western values,and attempting to force them to do so is counter-productive.\nTake a look at Iraq,where tens of thousands of people have already died and that's just the tip of the iceberg.\nNo matter what Bush says,they're on the verge of civil war\nand when that breaks out,what's happened up to this point will seem like a garden party in comparison.

he has everything going for him but im afraid to take his virginity cause i never dated a virgin before and he is a scorpio and i am a taurus so i am wondering will it last

First, drop all the astrology mumbojumbo, or else he'll think you're crazy, virgin or not.\n\nTalk to him like you would anyone else.  Virgins aren't aliens who don't like other things.\n\nWhen and if you two decide to get to the naked party, then let him set the pace.  The good thing about him being a virgin is that probably anything you do will be heaven for him.  So you have don't have to worry about whether he's comparing you to anyone.  Have fun.  Let him know what you like/don't like.  I'm sure he will be worried he's not doing stuff right.\n\nCommunication - for virgins, and non virgin alike.


I am usually dead tired but even when i do go to bed I will lay there awake for hours and unfortuanatally i am allergic to almost any drug i could get except marijuana.

This is an actual situation.  My family loves Black & White cookies. These cookies are circles with a vertical diameter dividing the frosting into chocolate & vanilla. \n\nIf I am going to eat the entire cookie, I obviously get an equal amount of B & W. \n\nIf I am going to share it with my daughter, Shelby, I just cut the cookie in half horizontally, and we each get an equal amout of B & W. \n\n\nBut.  If my son Mike is also present, we each want one-third of a cookie. But each of us must get an equal amount of B & W.  If we imagine the horizontal diameter as two cuts, one on top of each other, and then move the knives north and south an equal amount, the top and bottom amounts will be exactly equal to each other. \n\n\nHow far away from the horizontal diameter should the cuts be made so that the center portion has the same area of both black & white frosting as the upper & lower portions?

You cut at 1/4 of the distance from the center to the edge.  If you want it more exact, it's 0.2649 of the radius.  Steve is wrong, size of the cookie doesn't matter.\n\nIf you want the trig: the cut is a chord parallel to the horizontal diameter.  Draw radii to the ends of the chord, and an altitude from the center of the circle to the (center) of the chord.  For convenience let radius r=1.  Length of altitude = d.  Half the length of the chord = w.  And angle between altitude and radius = x (in radians). \n\nNow area of the sector is 2x/2pi*pi*r^2 = (so nice!) just x.  Area of the triangle is 1/2 base * height = d*w.  And we eventually want the value of d, distance from center to the cut.\n\nSo area of the slice = area of sector - area of triangle=\nx-dw=1/3*area of whole circle = 1/3*pi*r^2=pi/3\nSince d=cos(x) and w=sin(x), \nwe need to solve x-cos(x)*sin(x)=pi/3.\nUsing a graphing calculator, we get x=1.302662837 radians, for which cos(x)=d=0.2649320846.

When is it really even necessary to go through the extra expense of water cooling a pc?

Water cooling is a good alternative if you're looking for a quiter system.  Plus it keeps your components running cooler so there's less risk of overheating and more overclockability (is that a word? - oh well).  There is a risk that it will leak and ruin the PC's components, but that is somewhat rare.  A good advancement is the phase change cooling method.  This is superior to all other cooling methods.  This is the same method used in refrigerators and AC units.  I'm not sure of any specific sites, but if you do a search for "phase change cooling" you should get plenty of informative results.  When you shake a can of compressed air, the bottom of the can get's very cold, and when you release it by spraying, it gets even colder.  This is a demonstration of the method phase change cooling uses.\n\nUmm, the answer below this is completely untrue.

I need to explain what standard is, what is standard deviation.  The audience is compose by teachers, and I want to make this in an easy way.

Standard deviation is often called standard error.  Say you take a sample of 100 people to know their averga ages.  You calculate the standard deviation by first knowing what the average is.  Let´s say the average age is 35 years old.  By definition, the standard deviation would be how many years are the people on your sample older or younger than the average. It could be about 3 years.  That means that most people in your sample has ages between 32 (35-3) and 38 (35+3) years.\nby now you should have the formula, and some example.  Notice that if you draw a graph made by columns with your data, the standard deviation measures exactly a proportion of the width of a column in your graph.
