I know of this person that tells stupid, idiotic lies. The lies don't mean anything big, just lies because he or she can. I am sick of it to be honest. I wonder why he or she does this to make herself/himself look stupid. I catch this person in lies all of the time......WHY do people do this?

so that the conversation would be more interesting or so that person would neeed some attention


For certain email messages that I pop up in Outlook Express, I get an Internet Explorer Script Error. This results in me clicking okay several times before the message is actually displayed. What is this? And how do I fix it?

Common script errors messages can be eliminated by Clicking-Control panel - Internet Options - Advanced tab. \nCheck "Disable script debugging" \nUncheck "Display a notification about every script error" \n\nIf no joy then \nMicrosoft's Scripting download \nGet the latest.

just visiting old questions, hope you found what you were looking for. Have a nice day.


Use "latin" as your search criteria, but I would suggest not limiting yourself to any one race. Get out there and explore all the women life has to offer.


Falsely accused, this native was sentenced to death.  But before the sentence was carried out, he vowed that his spirit would return and revenge his death.  He was killed and given a tribal burial that included among other things, seeds.  He did return, as he promised, and began a killing spree, but as a tree stump.  (No, I'm not kidding!!!)

"From Hell It Came" 1957\n\nSounds like it to me!


it seems  that the world capita for ufo's  is  in  NY's  hudson valley but it seems  that  the  local community has very  little knowlege  or  is  effected  by  this

I grew up just north of there. And I suspect the reason why few people are knowledgeable of UFOs is the obvious one. There aren't any. At least in the sense of alien or secret government spacecraft or triangular black blimps or whatever is in vogue today.\n\nWhile I would love for there to be aliens cavorting around the planet (I used to be an astrophysicist) it is often embarrassingly obvious that various UFO sightings are less than they appear.\n\nBasically, the best verified sightings are of lights (which could come from a number of obvious and not so obvious phenomena), and the most detailed sightings (aliens, probes and that whole bit) are the least verified.\n\nIt is also very suspicious that the nature of UFO reports has evolved to match our current level of technology. A century ago it was myster blimps and night flights of spindly aircraft, then it turned into flying saucers.\n\nThe big "incidents" have been reviewed numerous times and are clearly not anything out of the ordinary. Roswell for example *was* a coverup - of secret military high altitude balloons intended to detect Soviet atomic bombs, Project Mogul. This has been known for years now, but Roswell still pops up on TV along with Area 51 as the secret storehouse of alien spaceships or whatnot.\n\nThen there is stuff which pops up that says the B2 stealth bomber is using alien antigravity technology or something, which is all very silly. There is a well known (and public) trail for the technology of stealth (the nitty gritty details are secret, but the principles are well known) and the flying wing design.\n\nBasically one has to conclude that a government that couldn't pull off a simple burglary or hide its secret prisions and info-tapping more recently, can keep all this alleged alien stuff under wraps for 50+ years. That seems the hardest bit the swallow.\n\nKarl Pflock wrote a book about Roswell, now unfortunately out of print, which is excellent. He started as a beliver and ended up convinced that it was all due to Project Mogul.\nsee: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006PBXB4/sr=1-5/qid=1137560494/ref=sr_1_5/102-4624807-3864156?%5Fencoding=UTF8


I like this guy that goes to my school, I told him how i felt, and he told me that he liked me too. Things went well for a week. But then He changed his mind, he said I  acted like our relationship was more than it really was and I really dont think i acted this way. Well a few days ago I finally got a chance to talk to him. I told him that I was really upset and that I still like him. For awhile after he stopped liking me we didnt talk for the longest time, but now we're beiginning to talk again. Although I'm afraid that our relationship will never be more than just "friends." I love him dearly and I dont want to lose him. Please help! What should I do?

First love I take it? Just take a deep breath and back away a little.  Let him do some of the approaching. Its a partnership, and you have to move together. Besides, men like to be the leaders normally. I don't want to upset you, but there is a chance this won't work out, and it'll hurt, but you can get up again.  It won't be the end of the world, just the end of a chapter. If this guy liked you, chances are very good other guys like you too.

My "Friends" are always going to each others houses on the weekdays while I'm stuck at home do nothing cause my mom wont let me go out on weekdays or stay over a friends house. Now they're like best friends and have all of these inside jokes while I'm just standing there. Help. [I'm in 7th grader]

there not being mean but it is not there fault your missing out. Invite them over to your house... if you mom would allow it. \n\nas a friend you cant expect them to only talk about things when your around.... so it is only natural that you will miss some stuff... you cant be in every convo even if your mom did let you go... your learning a valuable lesson in sharing, gotta learn how to share friends too.\n\nIf there really your friends they will be there no matter what, even if you dont know the inside jokes...

My 81 year old mother is having some problems with her short-term memory.

definately! A homeopathic remedy called Baryta-carbonica is prolly just what she needs. in 6x or 12x potency 3 times a day.(If you are in the US this should be easy to get) along with that : HYDRATION.. making sure the elderly drinks even more than they feel like is very importat since the elderly often lose their sense of thirst, sadly most elderly are dehydrated and that has a really big effect on the memory.


i wanna start to try and look better physically wise but i dont have any time to go to a gym at school or a outside gym i  fence and play volley ball and that keeps me fit but i want to start trying to get a bigger chest and work towards a better looking stomach i have about and hour of free time a day but other then that are there any work outs that i can do by my self at home?

Buy a bench and bench press. Push ups. And what I have found better for abs then cruches is this:\nLay on the ground. Keep your legs together. Lift them six inches off the ground. Hold them.\n\nAnd also lifting your legs off the ground and layin on your back and motion with your legs like you are riding a bike.\n\nGod Bless


How do you find the slope of an linear equation your help would be great!

The slope, as it was taught to me simply long ago is just this: "The rise over the run."  What this means is the distance of the 'y' coordinate, divided by the distance of the 'x' coordinate.\n\nTo give an example that's a little more easy to grasp, consider walking up a flight of stairs.  Measure the distance from the bottom floor to the floor at the top of the stairs, that height is your 'rise'.  Now, measure the distance between the first stair on the flight and the last stair that was climbed horizontally, and that is your 'run'.\n\nOnce you have those two measurements, you can calculate the slope by dividing the height of the floor above by the length taken up by the stairs to get there.  Draw the stairs as a right triangle.\n\nThe right side is the rise, the bottom is the run, and the 'hypotenuse' is the square root of the sum of both.  The 'slope', is the right side divided by the bottom.


The new American militarism has abandoned the Founding Fathers, deserted the Constitution, and unrestrained the executive. War is a first resort. Militarism is inconsistent with globalism and with American ideals. It will end in abject failure. \n\nThe world is a vast place. The U.S. has demonstrated that it cannot impose its will on a tiny part known as Iraq. American realism may yet reassert itself, dispel the fog of delusion, cleanse the body politic of the Jacobin spirit, and lead the world by good example. But this happy outcome will require regime change in the U.S.

So "Regime Change" follows the Founding Fathers???\n\nGet a life.  They call regime change elections.. . feel free to take part.

in the past I have always had to pay the $15.00 co-payment when seeing my doctor for any kind of appointment.  But if I had to go in for a blood pressure check to just the nurse there was no fee.  \n\nAll of a sudden they tried to charge me the reg. $15.00 Co for my nurse visit today.  \n\nI walked out instead

Any visit to the doctor's office usually results in a co-pay.  They might have been nice and doing it for free for a ling time.  Do understand that medical liability insurance is very costly, someone had to schedule an appointment for you and update your file after your blood pressure check.

I have never understood this. How can people believe in stories written thousands of years ago as fact when faced with scientific proof that it did not happen that way? Particularly creationism vs. evolution. We have actual, physical, solid proof that evolution exists and is still in effect. How can someone believe in Adam and Eve? I really and truely don't get it. How can someone see something with their own eyes and yet deny that it is true? And why is it that they can believe in that story and yet scoff at the way other religions believe? It's like handing someone a copy of Tolkin and teaching them that is the true history of ancient England. Can anyone rationally, and by rationally I mean actual reasons not just "Because the bible says so and so it must be true." tell me why?

Many Christians, Jews and Muslims believe that God authored the bible. They believe in the inerrantacy of the bible because it is claimed to be inspired by God himself. If the bible is inerrant, without error, then they reason that  the bible must be literally true. The problem for them then is to interpret the bible so any inconsistancies can be explained within the entire bible when read as a whole continuous work. The bible was written by 40 or more individuals over perhaps 1500 years. Reading it as a whole continuous work inspired by God, does not leave room for the evolution of religious thought not to mention the evolution of the Universe and Mankind. This is "Group Think' on a global scale. I am not saying that the bible is not inspired by God, but it should be read in literary form not literal form. In the area of ethics and morals I believe the bible is more literal in nature. God communicates directly with his creation through Science, there is no middle man. Scripture has man in the middle, communicating ideas with his own limited understanding of the world. When fundamentalists are confronted with the science of evolution, they just do not believe it. Some will try to find ways to expain the Universe so it is in agreement with the bible. Examples would be that radioisotope dating is wrong or the Universe was created to look billions of years old when it is less than 10,000 years old. It does seem ridiculous to reasonable people.


Will I get admission to Kellogs with 710 GMAT score and 3.5 Yrs of wrk ex but average academic background good community service

Your GMAT is high enough to make sure that admissions will at least look closely at your application.  If you have stellar recommendations, then you'll likely get an interview and a chance to explain why your academic history is lacking.\n\nNorthwestern is, obviously, a top-notch school and they turn away candidates that many other schools would do anything to get.  I wouldn't hold my breath, but you should be able to at least get a good look from them.

I recently read a newspaper article that said Darwin must be turning in his grave due to the "intelligent design" theory being fought about today.  But, my understanding was that Darwin became a Christian before he died.  I wonder what he REALLY thinks at this point.

there were rumors of this, but nobody really knows  what happened on his deathbed.

It is easier to make him react to your first move than to make him make the first move. Just be direct, kiss him passionately. No reactions? Get rid of him, don't waste your life on someone who doesn't want you. But if he has a good reason and not because he doesn't want you, you may want to keep the relationship. Some people believe in no premarital sex, frankly speaking I do. It all depends on you. If you think it's a stupid belief, leave him and find another guy. Life is too short to waste on someone you cannot understand.

i ask him if he had g/f but he said no so should i ask him out again or should i find any thing out before or just dont ask him out

Why did the two of split? If it was your decision, why did it seem like a good idea at the time? If it was his decision, what has changed about his situation or attitude since then? If he left you for someone else, then I'd say, no, don't do it, because there's nothing to say he won't do it again. If you left him, maybe you need to think a bit about whether or not those reasons are still valid, or if something has actually changed to make another relationship with him worth pursuing.

i am a 17 yr old skier.  ive been skiing my whole life and have gotten very good.  im awsome at moguls and downhill skiing.  i can do some rails and have started to learn tricks.  i can do an iron cross and a 360.  am i good enough to get sponsored and if so how and if not what should i work on?

Just from your question it doesn't sound like you are on the level you need to be.  However, don't let me discourage you at all. Get your buddies together and try and film some of your skiing.  Try to enter in half pipe, slopestyle, and big air contests.  Or freeskiing contests if thats more your style. You need to get exposure. When you start winning the competitions you will get the sponsors. Also start talking to local shops. Local sponsors will open the doors to big name sponsors. Good luck.

the most ancient civilizations came from some where they all referenced thier knowledge to the past  This accounts for the Hindu four great years of their cycle.  where we on this planet swing close to the other star and then swing away over a period of 24ooo years I believe the Vedic astrologers on the length of the cycle.

If the sun were part of a binary system, it would revolve around the barycenter of the binary system. We would be able to dected this movment by comparing the Sun's position to other nearby stars and to more distant stars. Since we don't dectect any such movement around the barycenter, that means that any such compainion star must be very very small, making the barycenter close to the sun's positon, or very far away, making the motion of the sun about the barycenter very slow. \n\nNeither of these conditions are true of any other binary star system we see, so no.

After the death of Prophet Mohammed, people who believed his successor is his son-in-law Hazrat Ali who will guide the umma in spiritual matters as well as daily matters, hand-in-hand with Holy book Quran are called as Shia. While people who believed that after the death, Quran (the holy book) and Sunna (prophet' deeds) are sufficient for guidance in all spiritual as well as daily matters are called Sunni's.\n\nShia people believe in living Imam (Ali was first Imam) who is responsible for interpretation of the verse in Quran as per change in world.\n\nSunni people interpret the Quran themselves or look for educated theologies experts for guidance.


LIKE MINE IS TUPAC EAZY E BONE THUNGS BIGGIE ICE CUBE AND MORE WHATS IS A GOOD HIP HOP LIST?


plz answer other than- "give respect take respect"

I think it could be a mistake to "gain respect in society."  Society can screw itself.  If you "need" society's respect, they have power over you.  Do you want to be in that situation????  \n\nOnly you can truly know if you are worthy of respect.  Whether they in society respond to you with respect can sometimes be in error.  Some of the most respected people, say in a corporate work situation, are complete idiots--not worthy of any respect at all, yet they are shown respect for all the wrong reasons. \n\nAnd who in society do you want respect from?  If you want respect from hip-hop rappers, then get some gold teeth, grab your crotch liberally, and wear pants that are falling to your knees.  If you want respect from slimy salesmen, go work at a car dealership and make the most bonus of any person that week....\nDo you want respect from people in the local church?  That works great until you disagree with one of their beleifs.........\n\nThe most important thing is that you become a person who respects himself--regardless of others.  That is truly of value.  If you are looking for respect as a commodity, to be used as a tool for getting stuff from people, then I poo-poo it.\n\nSo you need to define what qualities in yourself are worthy of respect.  Curb the habits and things about you that you don't respect, or accept that some things will never change and you are who you are.  It will be a mix of both--each of us is different, so you might as well embrace it.


I can read, I don't need word to word definition, just...a general picture of symbolic meaning I guess, mabey I'm just tired because otherwise I'm pretty good at remembering or figuring out things on my own

All three of Coheed and Cambria's current studio releases are concept albums, concerning "the Bag On Line Adventures" story.  I think they have planned for five or so albums.  "Delirium Trigger" was on the first album, which is essentially the second part of the story about Coheed and Cambria, who are husband and wife, respectively.  This second album, "The Second Stage Turbine Blade," serves to introduce Coheed and Cambria.  In it, Coheed is the unsuspecting carrier of a dormant virus, called the Monstar.  Others with malicious intent plan to inject him with a serum called the Ciache, which would activate the virus and grant Coheed the power to destroy the universe.  It is quite a bleak story.  The general feeling I get from the lyrics of "Delirium Trigger" reflects the bleakness of Coheed and Cambria's situation.  They have both been tricked into wanting to kill their four children; because they were led to believe that their kids had an even worse, mutated form of the Monstar virus, the Sinstar.  The lyrics indicate a sense of fear or danger, coming from violence and from someone having power over you.

I need a little help! I cannot find a good way to study for my exams. I tried a lot of ways but i just can't find a good one!

Try different methods to see what works for you. For me, writing something over and over makes it stick in my mind. Yours could be something like reading aloud then putting things in your own words to retain memory.\n\nTry to figure out if you learn better visually or verbally. In class, does it help you more to write down notes or just listen to your teacher and class discussion? It could be both.\n \nIt takes some experimenting to see what works for you. But some common rules are: don't wait until just before exams to study- review early!, study in short bursts, and try explaining concepts you want to learn to other people. Teaching is often the best way to learn.\n\nGood luck, and don't give up! You'll find what works for you.

No. Franklin Delano Roosevelt had more power than Lincoln. It's true Lincoln had less of a country to work with than FDR, but an act of Congress gave FDR the most power of any president and he needed it. The great depression was a disaster for the US and someone had to step in. The US was attacked by a foreign power and people were in a panic about that. Put those two events together and you have a bigger set of problems than a mere Civil War...


Hey Al, are you talking seriously? Where do you live? My question is because, if you live in the United States, there are thousands of academies, institutes, schools and the like, where you can study English either paying or free. But if you live outside the U.S. it's a different story. Where do you live now? (someone should translate this for you.)


If a male's heart tells him that she loves a girl and he wants a girl for the rest of his life...but at the same time he is arroused sexually, (fantasizes) for a guy. What is his gender?..bisexual, gay, or straight?..Why?

well if his heart tells him he wants a girl....then he wants a girl.....maybe his mind is just kind of looking at males because he's comparing himself.....personally i think he's straight.


Please, I would really appreciate it. Thank you very much.

Although, women also attend the events, but most women are at home taking care of their children or performing household duties unless their woman of stature.\n\nLooking back at present time and at football, and what I mentioned earlier, it's the hits, contact or the cracking of the helmets you hear from the television screen.  \n\nAlthough, it can be untrue because of hockey, which also a sport with numerous contact.  However, the advantage football has over hockey is that the scoring is higher.  Where in that the American spectator always wants a high scoring game.  Like Basketball.\n\nWhy men like it?  It's not stereotypical in nature, but men often have the tendency to be more aggressive or something that drives its hormones to see some contact or hit someone.  That's why a lot of men like Boxing as well.  And, few like figure skating because it uses grace to win.\n\nIt's always the physicality in nature that men loves sports, not only football.


How can I stay up so late without really getting tired.


Please, if you know how, I would be very grateful... I want to make my MySpace really pretty!!!

go to sites like myspacenow.com or do a search for myspace on google and it will come up with a bunch of stuff for your myspace


With a lot of things around us getting worse, doesn't it appear as though the ceiling on the country needs some new shingles?

Shingles go on the roof, not the ceiling.


Really, what are you afraid of? I send alot of email and make alot of phone calls and would not mind at all if a third party was listening. Who cares what I am having for dinner or who is picking up the kids today? Even my long distance calls to close friends, who cares? If it will help fight terrorist then why would I care? Can you imagine being a terrorist and knowing you were able to use our countries telephone infrastructure as a means of communication to wage war against the civilian population without fear that I was being listened to because the civilian were worried their government might hear them talking dirty to there wife or whatever it is you people are worried about. What is it you are afraid they will hear? I am way more concerned about terrorist attacks than wire tapping. In fact I am more worried about male pattern baldness than wire tapping. God bless our leader who is strong enough to stand up and do what needs to be done in spite of the liberal agenda.

Good point.\n\nMost of our lives are too boring to warrant the attention of government intelligence agencies.\n\nYes, I value my privacy, but am in more fear of losing it to marketing agencies than spy networks.


experience?  Seventeen years ago, I was with an outreach team in Mexico City.  Our team had two missions:  the first was to repair several churches that were damaged in the earthquake; the second was to take the Gospel to the street.  On the morning of our first day on the streets, we had gathered in the attic of our hotel, just as we had every other day, for a time of prayer and worship.  As we were worshipping, God's physical presence filled the room.  It was overwhelming, awe-inspiring,and a thousand other catch phrases.  But when I try to describe the actual event, the best explanation I can give is that His presence was like a warm fog that surrounded us and even penetrated us and drew us into one accord with Him.  Can anybody help me to find better words?\nPS  The Lord blessed awesomely. Our little band of 36 led over 2000 people to the Lord in 4 days, including over 300 in one hour on the steps of the National Cathedral.  I KNOW it was God.

that is hard to describe! it is like a feeling of great joy and sorrow at the same time, joy because you know and feel His love, sorrow because you need more, you feel your own insignifigance in His Greatness. I have actually seen what appeared to be gold dust cover people before.. AWESOME experience


A piece of a metallic alloy weighing 38.0 g at 192.0 oC is placed into 191.0 g of water at 25.0 oC in an insulated container. The final temperature of the system (water and alloy) was 30.5 oC. What is the specific heat of the metallic alloy, assuming no heat loss to the surroundings? (Specific heat of water: 4.184 J/g.K)


any methods? like don't eat lunch or breakfast?

Starving or skipping meals is not recommended as a good way of losing weight. \n\nAdding in exercise to your daily routine will help increase your metabolism. You can do simple things like taking the stairs, parking in the furthest parking space, etc. Or even going for a run or jog.\n\nDecrease your intake of high fats, sodas, high carb (but dont eliminate carbs). Don't stuff yourself when eating..when eating out, the portions you get are usually 2x what you really need. Try eating half of it and taking home the other half. \n\nAlso, eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. High fiber cereal will also help.


by best i mean the easiest to use and easiest on the eyes

I like Azureus as well, although there is a newish one called FireAnt which is specifically geared toward video content and has a neat interface.


I was talking to this guy and he said he was "white bread" and then started to talk about friends that he has(mind you he was drunk). Does that mean he is racist or that he is just a simple man? Anything would help.

White bread is a stereotype, and people who are white bread are white people who have charachteristics that are mainly of that sterotype.  As an example the man who was best man at my wedding was a white guy from Virginia who went to church on sunday morning and had an ability to do things with tools but not so good on tests.  So we would think of that as white bread.\n\nSomeone who calls himself white bread doesn't mean that person is racist, just means they are simple like you said,  not stupid, just not interested in global affairs as an everyday thing they would check.\n\nIf someone is racist they would sorta give off that vibe of heh I go to the secret meetings where we wear sheets and you would see like maybe a tattoo on their body of the confederate flag.


Like, who was is and when did they make the computer? Information PLEASE!!!!!!

The first electronic calculation device using binary logic was built by Konrad Zuse in 1938. Check out the first link below.\n\nCharles Babbage built or at least conceived the first mechanical difference engines that could sort punch cards and even be programmed by punchcards.


I'm tired of explaining it all the time. Especially to those white people who act like they have never seen a black person before and don't know how to act or what to say around us.

I never heard blacks call white people the C word, iam black and to me its sound corny and it lacks any power to it, unlike the N word.


I was wondering if anyone know the scoop on Shawn Micheals?

I do all the time. He could win in the Elimination chamber because he is fueding with vince the reason is because Triple H and Austin got their titles while fueding with vince. Triple H got his first belt like this. but Shawn doesnt like holding the title for long and he doesnt need it because he is "the Showstopper", and "main event"


He didnt have a choice, he was with his friends and didnt have any ride to leave. he said he sat in the back and didn't get any lap dances...wat would u do?

He is a liar and a cheat. It happened to me, 'cept that my bf went to a movie theater and hosed somebody off. I got mad, but unfortunately, i was also forgiving. And now, I am paranoid that he might still be doing it.


Why do Sikhs (Indians) have the following endings in their names such as inder, pal, deep or preet?

Here's a good passage on Sikh names and their meaning, it doesn't address the second part of your question however.  You may dig a little bit to find more info here or the sources I've shared below.\n\nhttp://www.sikhwomen.com/lifecycle/Sikh_Names_Meanings.htm\n\n"Sikh Names and Their Significance\n\n    Most but not all names are derived from the Guru Granth Sahib and in most cases describe God's attributes and not ours.  (ie. immortal, infinite beauty, most intelligent, unfathomable, unapproachable, victorious, pure, ageless etc.) \n\n    In 1699, Sikh Women were given the last name 'Kaur' and and Men 'Singh' by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Guru. This initiate intended to end the caste system, social stratification and much of the apparatus of Hindu ritual and legalism.  In Indian society, an individual's name reveals his or her caste, and Sikhs were freed from the caste system by having all men incorporate Singh in their names and all women, Kaur."\n\nIndeever ....blue lotus\nPallav ....young shoots and leaves\nDeepak ....lamp, kindle\nDeepankar ....one who lights lamps\nPreetish ....god of love


Program,music,etc.....\n\nAnd will NOT BURN With Other Software like alcohol 120%  \n\nOr make it Really hard 2

I know that a lot of CD burners can't make a disc with subcodes like are used in CD+G karaoke discs, but they can read them. If you could come up with some scheme that used these subcodes as an integral part of using the CD, you could eliminate copying on most, but not all CD burners

weyersberg,kirschbaum&co solingen are the only words stamped on the blade. the handle,blade,grip and sheath have different markings and there is a serial no. . I can give those if any one can help. the blade is 12-16in.andthe handle has a brass grip. the blade and sheath are silver as is the guard.this is  larger than i have seen and it seems to be very old.It seems like a cross between a sword and bayonette.

Solingen is a famous German knife maker.\n\nMan, it sounds interesting!  Is there any way I can see a pic?


I feel that the answer is no.  If hes perfect then hes already made the right decision.

I have no idea on what to get her! And I have no idea on what to wear! I have known this woman since we have been 2 years old! \nAny ideas or suggestions????\nThanks!\n\nPS- How much would you spend on a shower gift when you plan to spend about 250.00 on the wedding gift!

1st - on cost - i would spend $35-$50 on a shower gift if you're going to spend that much on a wedding gift. \n\nOn what to get - is there a theme to the shower indicated on the invitation? if so, that'll help narrow it down (for my "honeymoon destination" shower, some people got themed gifts from the countries we were visiting. very cute and thoughtful). If not, then you can do one of two things: \n1. buy off the registry. sure fire way to get her something she wants. your safest bet. \n2. since it's in St. Helena, she's obviously into wine. do something wine-related. maybe a Carafe, engraved wine stoppers. something along those lines. \n\nas for what to wear - since it's in february it'll probably be held inside. would say a long skirt or a nice pants outfit. as long as you're comfortable.


Not as much as you might think.  The real "value" in the Catholic Church is in people and art.\n\nFrom news reports of the abuse of some of the Priests, you will see that many Diocese are declaring bankruptcy over $30 million - $100 million.\n\nJust to give you an example, as of July 2003 the Vatican's real estate is worth about 700 million euro ($1.21 billion), not including its priceless art treasures.


More specifically, girls who are always rude and popular, and have even tricked their parents into thinking that they are sweet little Angels?

You know I haven't figured that out either. I am the smartest girl in my grade so the way the those kinds of girls act is really annoying and immature to me. At my school a lot of the teachers suck up to these kind of people so I have no idea.


I am 23 and am thinking of joining my companies 401k program but I don't really understand how it works.  Can anyone explain the program to me that doesn't have an outside agenda.

good question.  401k's are excellent vehicles for preparing for retirement.  The greatest part about them is that usually your company gives you free money when you participate, called a match.  The way it usually works is that you decide how much, either dollars or a percentage of your income, you want to put in to the plan.  Then you decide which investments to pick (this can be tricky without knowing what they offer).  Ask the person offering the plan to help. Use a mix.\n\nWhatever you put into the plan is deducted from your income.  Heres an example:\n\nYour income:               $40,000\nContribution amt:   5%:    $2000 \nCompany match 50c per $:   $1000 \nup to 5%                    \n\nTotal contribution:        $3000\n\n(New taxable income:$38,000)\n\nIf you do this until normal retirement age of 60 and get a 10% return on your money over that time, you'll end up with almost $1,200,000.  \n\nSince now youre only taxed on $38,000, when you decide to retire and get your money you have to pay taxes on all the money you take out (not the whole $1.2 million unless you take it all at once).  If you take it out before your 59 1/2 you will have to pay an additional 10% penalty on whatever you take out. There are exceptions.\n\nThese are pretty much the pros and cons, but if you start now and stay consistent you'll be able to retire very comfortably.


No matter what I do before I turn in, for the past 4 weeks I have been waking up, wide awake, at 2:15 am, and can't fall back asleep till 4 or 4:30 or so.  What the heck is going on?

you might have a sleeping disorder which means you should consult a doctor. or you may need to pee. my mother wakes up at 4 every morning because she needs to go to the bathroom. i hope i dont get that from her.

Which sounds more reasonable to you? I live in kansas and they're trying to get the school district to teach "intelligent design", i'm just curious about the thoughts of other people.

Creationism means that "Zap!" there we (and all other living things) were... created as is in the blink of any eye (or a few days).  This is Biblical mythology.  Although interesting, it has been shown with much evidence to be incorrect.\n\nIntelligent design means that God either set in motion the changes that man and nature would undergo from the very begining... or that he invisibly changed nature over many thousands of millions of years and still continues to do so today... very slowly!  So that he set things up for evolution to occur and still controls it.\n\nHowever this "theory" cannot be tested.  We cannot, by the definition of God, experiment on God to prove what God has or has not done.  Many people BELIEVE that because nature is so complex, that it must have had an intelligent creator and therefore the intelligent creator exists.  But this does not prove the assumption that "If nature is complex, then it must have had an intelligent creator".  That statement is where the faith lies.\n\nEvolution shows that beings have changed over the millions of years by natural selection.  It does not say that God did or did not have a hand in it.  It is merely fact.\n\nSome people think that evolution is blasphemous because it contradicts the Old Testament.  But many things that are done now-a-days by most modern Christians contradict the Old Testament. (Dietary habits, clothing, etc.)  Even intelligent design contradicts the old testament.\n\nThe statement "The sky is blue." (on a clear day!) is no more or less true if you think it's blue because (1) God made it blue, or (2) because God set up the atmospheric conditions to make the sky blue, or (3) it is blue only because of atmospheric conditions and not because of God.\n\n"Evolution happend" is just a fact.  If you think it happened because of God or not is really a matter of faith.\n\nAnd being part of faith, should be kept out of government.  Much of the US constitution is based on keeping religion and goverment separate.  Evolution is fact and should be taught.  If you think it occured because of God, that is great, but it is not science.  Faith has done some wonderful things.  So has science.  But to contaminate faith with science is like trying to experiment on God.  And to enter faith into science completely destroys the objectivity of science.\n\nBoth creationism and intelligent design are based on faith and should not be taught in public schools.\n\n\nP.S.  To say that evolution cannot be proven is absurd.  There is countless evidence in favor of it.  Just as the theory of gravity.  You will have to read up on natural selection.

do you think holo causte is real or not? please give reasons.and please try not to exaggerate!

There is documentation, photographs, eyewitness testimony, survivor accounts, Why would you even ask, who told you it wasn't real?


If yes, tell me what I must do to learn in detail. \nIf no, tell me why I cannot in detail.

Sure\n\nTalk to the Coach.  I have a friend who started his senior year.  You'll need to train and get in shape but talk to the coach.  He'll tell you what to do.


I'm 5'4 118 lbs long brown hair, big brown eyes, and i wear cut off shorts, cowgirl boots, and tanks.. is that even hot to guys anymore or is that not in style anymore.. no matter what you say though I'm not gonna change I'm redneck at heart I was jus curious..

yeah, cowgirls have just as much hotness potential as any other girl, but if they'vs got a sexy accent, their hotness is amplified.

I am trying to find out if a light ray (or laser beam) can bounce off another light ray. If so, how it is done?

No Way Man!  Photon-photon scattering?  Highly dubious.  Photons don't have charge. They don't self-interact, that's why the electro-weak theory works so well... right?\n\nResponse to Dr. Bob's response:\n\nI agree that this process occurs (although a photon that decays into a e+e- pair has to be close to another mass so momentum can be transfered; isolated photons cant decay into e+e-).  But in such a case, would you really say that "one light ray has bounced off another?" I'd say that it was "bouncing" off the electron/positron pairs.  Just semantics I suppose.


Problem State: \n68 million acres of forest damaged or destroyed by acid rain \n\nAcid rain is caused primarily by the emission of sulfur dioxide from coal-fired power plants. There are a number of remedies, including: switching fuel sources to natural gas, oil, or renewable energy sources; switching to low-sulfur coal; removing the sulfur from the coal before burning; using fluidized-bed combustion processes to burn the coal; and removing the sulfur from the smoke stack after combustion through the installation of pollution control equipment such as "scrubbers." \n\nCosts/Benefits \n\nA combination of tax incentives, government regulations and direct assistance that results in pollution-control equipment being placed on all coal combustion sites, increases in efficiency of industrial processes, transportation and appliances would cost approximately $8 billion per year for ten years. This is about 1% of the world's total military expenditures.

i think he is striaght but he dress gay sometimes nd striagtens his hair

Get to know him. Mention a news story that you've seen on gay people or a friend you know is gay or tell him that you are gay/bi, and ask him what he thinks. If he reacts well to gay issues, just tell him you like him. Even if he doesn't feel the same way towards you, if he's comfortable with gay people you can still be friends.


U have to open ur mesnger n then  open the caht room then u can easily make  ur chat mate.


I have tried seems like a hundred times to quit, at least I thought I was trying. Any suggestions. Desperate .

You know its time for a change.  You can't just change this habit.  Its about how you are going to deal with the stress that comes up in your life.  You got to face your problems without running to some instant fix.  *the cigarette*  \n\nSecond, you got to take a proven route.  Look up Smoker annoyomous in your area.  Take the patch or gum.  You need someone that will support you in your tough times.  Maybe someone who also stopped.   When your tempted, remind yourself about the things  you hate about smoking.  So expensive.  The bad lungs.  Whatever reason you want to stop.  Remember it when your tempted


Hosni Mubarak is the president of Egypt.  What else are you wanting to know?


It totally depends on context.  For instance, it would sound better in Japanese to say "Tasukete kudasai" which is "Please help me."  However, if someone is begging for help, especially from someone they know or someone of a similar social status, then they might be more likely to say "Tasukete kure!" translated to "Help me!"  \n\nThis refers to the first part as well.  One might say "Nani ga hoshii no?" or "Nani ga iru no?" (What do you want/need?) or even "Nanika iru no?" (Do you want anything?) more casually, but if you use "desu" it is polite.


I want to know how to find real bisexual woman in my area who want to get together for real, and wont cost me anything to find them?

Chances are you know some already, but you just do not know it. I would also suggest a local club or bar that has a lady's night, and look for the single women, that is what men do to find women, why should in not work for women as well. It is my understanding that lesbians do not like bisexual women, so going to gay bars probably are not the right choice for that. I could be wrong about that, though.\n\nThe bisexual women that I know, my wife included, generally stick to the heterosexual thing because it is easier in society, so spotting them can be a little difficult, but there are a good deal of them around.


Just wondering if any of you out there are either Arbonne reps, have been reps, or use the products and what your opinions are of it.

Although I have never been associated with Arbonne, you might try asking "WAHMs", or Work At Home Mom communities.  Most likely you will find a representative in the product line.\n\nSearch for "wahm" or "work at home mom".


still loves me and want to get back together.

He still has some feelings for you.  Or else, he hasn't found anyone else to play around with.  Maybe he wants free milk without having to own the cow?

I have an opportunity to buy an investment property in Katy. I've heard taxes and insurance (hurricane and mold) are very high and sometimes difficult to obtain. Is this area in the hurricane zone? What are the hurricane prep and cleanup costs?

I live in Houston and while the cost of living is okay, the traffic is a Nightmare from Hell and the summers (May to October) are so hot and humid, it's almost unbearable outdoors. Even today, in January, it's almost 80 degrees, hot and sunny outside.  The hurricane doesn't hurt us much, but the resultant flooding even from mild thunderstorms is usually BAD....leaving many many streets impassable for hours to days.  Mold is an issue, yeah, and the insurance is high because people who clean up mold charge you a fortune (even though it almost never cleans up satisfactorily and you are still left with something that will eventually be uninhabitable).  Many houses are not built to protect from mold in the interior walls, and many lawsuits result from that. \nIf you're not actually going to live here, maybe it's a good investment, but you will probably want to have it appraised and make sure it's not in a flood zone, because you'd have to warn the buyers it will flood and they'll back out of the deal.  You might be better off investing in New Orleans, because eventually those areas will be worth more money, if they are near worthless now.  Whether the investment in Katy will pay off eventually, who can tell. \nThere are a lot of negatives to living in Houston. I'm hoping to be moving soon.


I THINK WIFE WANTS DIVORCE AND BOTH KIDS.TOLD ME OLDEST NOT MINE,SAID I HIT HER HAD ME ARRESTED, NOW SAYS SHE WAS JUST UPSET WHEN SHE SAID IT AND WANTS ME TO COME HOME,FAMILY SAYS IF I DO SHE WILL SAY CLAME CHILD ABOUSE ON CHILD THAT IS NOT MINE HAVE ME ARRESTED AGINE,AND NO WAY TO SEE KIDS AGINE, BUT I MISS MY KIDS SO SO VERY MUCH I AMD WILLING TO TAKE THE CHANACE CAN NOT AFFORD A LAWER,IN MY STATE,ALL LAWS ARE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTHER SHE GETS FREE EVERTHING ,IF I DO FIND A LAWER CAN I TRUST THEM TO HELP ME DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START HOPE SOME ONE CAN HELP ME

OH hell no you're not crazy!...you sound like a pretty good guy...you should try and prove your self...become the better parent and do everything you can do to gain the trust of your kids and whom ever knows you....I think that in a court if they speak of what a good person you are then hopefully that will help...and stay away from that crazy lady you called "Wife"...seems like she never deserved you and plus it will do more harm to the kids than to anyone else to take away their father.  Good Luck.

I don't understand why I am at perpetual odds with people who believe in god -- I also have a hard time tolerating them.  But when I was a teen, and a self-identified Christian, I felt the same way about people who didn't go to church.  Why do I do this?

Dude, your obviously asking the wrong people. Try asking yourself. Logic would destroy religion, but unfortunatly, it probably never will; just look at your answers!!(synfi excluded)


I have just started my first online business and i want to do good with it. It's a Estore and i sell thousands of various items and it's pretty much all automated. I want to make good profit with this so i can start another business im interested in. How can i bring in profits monthly without having to invest any more of my money into this? I also signed up with Ebay so i can sell on there. I just sent in an application for Zibus.com to get more products to sell on my website and list on Ebay. It is a online dropshipper site and i thought i would give it a chance. Can someone please help me out with this. I am almost 20 and would like to make a good living by being my own boss and working my own hours. I am very ambitious and have a lot of goals in life that i want to accomplish before it is my time to go. All information is very much appreciated. Thanks in advanced for your help - Tokyo from Definitive

One thing you should know, a business online is just like any other business, it will take time and work to succeed. I work online as well and make a nice side income. I can tell you that I am only where I am now because I asked questions and actually acted on advice I was given. Too many times people expect an online business to make them money within a month and without much work. It is not like that very often. I just wanted to clear that all up first.\n\nEbay is a great way to start. Make sure your products are not all over Ebay though, and if they are, make sure to add something to your offer, make it different from all the others if you can.\n\nOne thing you can do that has helped me, is to write and submit articles to article directory sites. Write about your site, write about what you know, and at the end of the article include a url to your web site. Once finished writing it (make sure it's not just a sales letter, but good information), submit it to article directories so other users can use the article on their site. If everything goes well, you will start receiving some web traffic from those articles. But again, it will take a month or two and a few good articles to see any traffic. But this is a free method of advertising.\n\nHowever, paying to advertise will general get you more traffic faster, and probably more sales faster as well. You can use Yahoo's Overture pay per click to advertise your site. You pay Yahoo a bit of money for each person who clicks on your ad within Yahoo. It will cost money, but if your site is good, you should make some sales. I do this with Yahoo and other sites as well.\n\nMaking an online business profit is hard work at times. And there are a lot of ebooks out there that can help. I have only gotten into a bit about it. \n\nOne thing you can do is to visit online business forums, where you can ask questions and get feedback from other successful online business people.


Don't get me wrong! I don't mean that pornography should be allowed, but I just wonder what are the criteria for forbidding the first but allowing the second. Isn't it hypocrisy?

Here in the USA, we have based our sociatal rights and wrongs on a christianic/judiac system of morals. In that, anything of a sexual nature is wrong, whereas things of violence can pertain to you following the precepts of your faith. whether its being ready to die for your beliefs or more likely, to kill for them. In the eastern/asian systems, violence is wrong, and things of a sexual nature are much more highly tolerated. Take japan, you can very easily have nudity in a pg, but much of any violence raises it to an R. its also historicaly bases as well. As americans we have not had any personal access to real violence. whereas in japan they literaly had war on their mainland within the last generation. memories of things like that can last.


>I really need help\n>SPECIFICLY: WHAT SHOULD YOU FIRST SENTENCE BE??????\n> tHANK yOU vERY mUCH!!!

I once wrote a biography which started with an interview (fictional interview of the person), I know of a friend who wrote the biography in the form of a newspaper report... you could also grab a couple of famous biographies or check them online to see how they start.\nThere are numerous interesting ways, one suggestion specifically for you: since you are doing a biography of an author, you could start with a famous/controversial/thought provoking sentence (this becomes your first sentence) that the author wrote and then your biography could take off from an explanation of that line or building up from that theme!


I want the e-mail address of the school\nThe website of the school


thoughts of suicide cross my mind almost every day. attempts are made but always fail. my brother and grandma were both bipolar.i would be next if that is what i am! my mood changes sooo easily! one second i can be laughing and having fun, but the next SUICIDE is all i can think of. my friends think im crazy because of all my attempts, they think i lead the perfect life. if thats true then what wrong with me? why do i want to die? yes i have problems with my step-dad. he was the reason of my first thought of suicide. but i dont know what causes it now. my mother tells me its just a phase. MY FIRST ATTEMPT WAS 3 YEARS AGO! and yet i still want to die. plz help me!

bi-polar disorder is also marked by periods of extreme activity.  You may go days without sleeping or sleeping very little.  Look up mania in the dictionary to get an idea.  But you do sound as though you have a good case of depression.  Problems with your step-dad that you feel helpless or incapable of doing anything about would surely contribute to feeling the way you do.  You say your brother and grandma "were" bipolar.  Are they no longer with you?  You need to talk to someone about your feelings.  There is nothing "wrong" with you but feeling the way you do can hurt just as bad as a physical ailment and can be hereditary.  I don't know what your health insurance situation is like but I really think you need to talk to someone with some experience dealing with depression.  Your mother should not consider this a phase and support you getting help with your feelings.  Feeling suicidal is NOT a phase and I say that with alot of experience to back it up.  I had a friend kill himself in high school and we all saw it coming.  If you're young enough to still be in school I would recommend talking to a guidance counselor or psychology clinic if you're in college (that should be in the psychology department, the tiny college here has one so I'm guessing most others do too).  If you need an extra ear mine is available at whtkrst@yahoo.com.  I'm a mom of 5 kids and I was once a kid with step-parent problems myself that made me want to exit the planet.  If you look in the phone book there should be toll free numbers for crisis/suicide hotlines.  The people on the other end really do want to help and you shouldn't feel embarassed to call or to actively seek help for yourself.  You deserve it.    \n                                love and light,\n                                   Krista


I've done this a while ago, but I forgot how to do it. I want to be able to add few commands (mainly mount network drives) to the startup of the computer. If I just use mount -xyz... once I restart the computer the mount is not there. I have to run the command again. What is the best way to do this? I am root on the machine and I can also use Yast.\n\nThanks for the help.

i think this is on your flavor, look for file called rc.local \nadd commands to it

There are two ways.\n\nIf you are using XSLT 2, you just need to use the new for-each-group element.\n\nIf you are using XSLT 1, which is what most browsers and toolkits are based on at the moment, then you have to use the method invented by Steve Muench.  It is a lot more  work but it will get the work done in the end - that is what you care about.\n\nWith the latter method, you have to use the generate-id function, and a bunch of other stuff.\n\nIt will be nice when all the applications and libraries and frameworks out there get upgraded to XSLT 2.  The greater ease of this one feature alone will probably spur more interest in XSLT.\n\nI have included links to tutorials with good examples in them. The first one is for the simpler XSLT 2 way of doing it.  The second one describes the Muenchian method for getting it to work in XSLT 1.


What's the scoop on Capricorns? Any other Caps. out there?

With Saturn -- heavenly purveyor of many sought-after qualities like integrity, responsibility and discipline -- as your ruler, you're an inspiration to everyone around you. So whether your current companion is by your side for platonic, professional or romantic reasons this year won't really matter. They'll just be proud to be with you. And while you're not ordinarily fond of the spotlight, you'd better try to get used to it, because it will be just about impossible to avoid. In fact, the attention, admiration and applause of the masses will be around every corner for you this year -- and it's your own darned fault. \n\nYou began working hard to achieve your professional goals (especially that reputation for fairness and benevolence) around late summer 2005. The response from coworkers and higher-ups has been terrific ever since, but don't forget that all this has happened for one reason: because you've put in the time and effort to make it happen. But 2005 was really just practice -- 2006 is your year to shine. Don't you dare try to avoid the accolades!\n\nIn other news, you'll also have plenty of romantic opportunities to pursue this year. You're due to meet someone -- or finally notice someone -- in January or February. This particular someone will be entertaining, magnetic and spontaneous enough to keep you interested for a good long time. (It's a good thing, too, because you're definitely not in the mood for games.) If you're happily attached, keeping it that way won't be tough at all, especially from April through August. You and your sweetie will probably be getting along so well, in fact, that you may temporarily disappear from your social circle's 'active' list. Oh well. It's good to hibernate every now and then -- especially when puttering around together in your PJs sounds far better than taking a chauffeured limo ride to the opera. All in all, life will be good, thanks to your number one squeeze -- and you've certainly earned it. Kick back and enjoy the fruits of your labor and the company of your loved ones. Then, with your unselfish motives intact, get out there and spread your blessings around!


Can any one tell me the way to trick people into beliving that you were a physic?

I already have a fair amount of knowledge about C++..do i have to proceed with c++ till the professional level first before going into anything new?

Not at all.  There are some excellent compilers and IDEs that are free so there's nothing stopping you from giving it a try (see the links I've included below).\n\nWith that said, I highly suggest that you find a language you like and stick to it.  At least until you consider yourself an excellent programmer in your chosen language.  If you're hoping to make money by coding I also suggest you pick a popular language, or at least one that will get you work:  C++, Java, VB, SQL for a widely used database, etc.\n\nOnce you've got a good knowledge of a language and how to program in general, it's really not that hard to pick up another.  I know, because I've been a developer for over 25 years.  These days I code mostly in C++ with a little Python, Java, VB and various SQL dialects thrown in -- it all depends on the job I've been asked to do.


Like yahoo or google..\nCan you help me..?! and give some information about it..?!

If you don’t already have an icon you need to download or purchase icon creation software, I recommend MicroAngelo - http://www.microangelo.us/\n\nOnce you make your icon, you need to name it favicon.ico and upload it to the root directory of your web site, where the index.html page is located.\n\nThe icon will display when someone adds your site to their favorites or makes a shortcut in their “links”\n\nHope this helps.

every1 says to drink more water(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)\nbut what about other drinks (orange juice,milk.....ect.) if these are no good, y arent they?

Water is the best choice but you can have other drinks too.People say drink more water because it helps you digest and hydrate your body.Milk is a good choice and so is juice..sometimes.You shouldn't drink more fruit juices than water because juice contains lots of calories and sugar.

Can U explain me method of polynomial division with examples.\n\nThanks\nRegards\nBarbie N

Polynomials are expressions involving x raised to a whole number power (exponent). Some examples are: \n\n\n\nIn this lesson we consider division of polynomials such as: \n and . \nThere are two ways to calculate a division of polynomials. One is long division and a second method is called synthetic division. Synthetic division can be used when the polynomial divisor such as x-2 has the highest power of x as 1 and the coefficient of x is also 1. Otherwise, such as , a long division process must be used. Both methods will be demonstrated. \n\nWe will now look at some examples showing how these two procedures are done

Essentially I will meet someone cute and decent, then realize some major flaws, but I will KNOWINGLY lie to myself and cover for their flaws, excusing them rather. How do I stop myself from doing this? (I know a real decent guy will never come along though, and yes in case you're wondering, I am a guy too...) I know one option would be a psychologist but maybe we have one in the room? Does anyone have any real, true advice on how maybe I can stop doing this to myself? I have relatively good self confidence and I am fairly cute but good guys never work out. I am kind of like Susan from Desperate Housewives, except I'm some crazy fun loving but mature 18 year old? Ok, answer away, thanks!

If you KNOW that you don't need to be with these guys, then when you meet them you need to not let it go any farther.  I know it is hard when you are attracted to them, but in the long run it is better to not put yourself through the same thing over and over again.  I know it is hard being single for a long time, I'm in the same boat, but in the end it is better than getting your heart broken over and over again by guys that you know are going to do it.  Just hang out with your single friends, enjoy being 18 and having fun, and the right person will come along eventually (going out with nothing but couples will end up making you feel worse and like a huge third wheel, trust me on that one).  Good luck, let me know how things go, and email me if you have any more problems, greeneyeddevl@yahoo.com.


I was wondering if my husband and I can work it out and if it's possible for him and I to gain back what we lost?

What does it stand for? I need answers quickly!

everyone else is pretty much right, it's just that everything in the universe is relative to an object's frame of reference. nothing is absolute. for example, you're on a bike moving at 10 m/s. you throw a baseball at 15 m/s relative to your frame of reference. to someone standing nearby, from their frame of reference the ball is moving at 25 m/s (the 15m/s you threw it at plus the velocity you're already moving.)  now, to a car moving slowly along the road at 25 m/s, the ball is not moving at all. it is stationary in the frame of reference of the car because they are moving at the same speed as each other. this is why it doesnt feel like you're moving backwards when you're in a car at a constant velocity(only when you speed up or slow down). also, if you drop a book in a moving vehicle, it will go straight down, not down and to the back.  that is because everything in the car is moving at the same speed, they're all in the same frame of reference. if you were to drop a  ball outside of the window of the car(assuming no air resistance) the ball would be moving at the same speed as the car and continue bouncing alongside the car(in reality it slows down substancially due to air resistance.) to you the ball would be stationary, aside from bouncing up and down, but to an outside observer, it would be moving forward.  it's all relative... that's the basic concept but there's also a lot more, more advanced applications involving the distortion of time as you reach near-light speed velocities... pretty interesting stuff.

Management Information System?\nIntel 8085 microprocessor

The 8085 was the follow-on processor to the very successful Intel 8080A processor. The 8085 got its name because it was Intel's first 5 volt microprocessor. The 8085 was 100% software compatible with the 8080A with increased systems performance. The initial 8085's were based on NMOS technology and the later "H" versions were based on HMOS technology. \n\n1995-1997) \n\n C++ Development on Management Information System (MIS) for near-real-time data collection, embedded 8085 control software, system-level load testing on Air Traffic Control Voice Switching System, and Quality Control Terminal (QCT) (DOS-based system status analysis program) including graphic display of system components using custom designed description language (implemented via LEX/YACC). \n\n  \n\nHope this was usefull!


I am a Nursing student on my junior year of my bachelor degree. My dream is to attend medical school. Once i get my bachelors do still have to take all the prerequesite courses needed to enroll into medical school?

Even with your bachelor of science in nursing, medical schools will still want to see that their prerequisites for admission (courses you need to take) are satisfied.  Basically, you'll need to complete a pre-med program at your school in addition to your B.S. in Nursing.  The good news is, since you majored in a science (healthcare at that) most of your pre-med courses (if not all) are probably completed!\n\nAs for med. school pre-reqs, I think they are pretty similar nationwide, but some schools may have varying requirements.  In Texas, most medical schools, at the minimum, require:\n\nEnglish/Rhetoric/Composition I and II, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry with labs, Biology I, II, III and electives with labs, a semester of Calculus, and University/Engineering Physics I and II with labs.\n\nI'm willing to bet that your university has a pre-medical advisor or department that will have all the information you need.  If you go to your university's website you'll probably be able to search online for pre-med course requirements.  Also, check out and search websites for med. schools you are interested in attending.  They will definitely spell out exactly the courses you need to have under your belt.\n\nGood luck!


I always tip 20% at restaurants, but some people say that you give less or more or just whatever you want to delivery people.  Is there an unofffical rule to how much you tip food delivery people if they came on time and with the right food? (And I live in Virginia Beach - if that matters)

It depends.  If there's an upcharge for having the pizza delivered he's all ready got his tip, but if they got to my place extremely fast I'd probably toss in an extra 2-3 bucks.  If there is no upcharge for delivery then it depends on how hot the pizza is when I get it the tip they get.  \n\nCold = 1 dollar\nLuke Warm = 2 dollars\nHot = 3-4 dollars.\nPiping Hot = 5 dollars\n15 minutes or below = 7 dollars or more!!!

Like the fiscal year of the United States is October 1 - September 30. Why not our calendar year? Japan's is April 1 to March 31. Christmas Island is July 1 - June 30. How are these dates decided? What is a fiscal year?

A fiscal year is any period of a year that doesn't begin on Jan. 1.  \n\nYou can select your tax year. . either calendar or a fiscal year starting on any date . . when you form a corporation.\n\nMost taxing bodies that are school districts have their fiscal years run July 1 to June 30 for budgetary reasons rather than a calendar year.  They do it to more closely coincide with the school years.  Other organizations do it for various reasons.

I'm interested in LEDs and Active Matrix TFT (thin-film-transistor) the color resolution/reproduction from devices such as portable video devices when compared with larger ones, like the jumbotrons in football stadiums, signs and venues such as the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas, NV. \n\n My direct interest is in applying a combination of the type of addressing methods currently in use on LED signs such as those used in major cities and the methods used in handheld devices. I welcome suggestions and input on which form of addressing the various LED groups would best work in a football-field-sized, "justified motion field" a grid that acts as a large video screen projecting from below the field, (via fiber optics), while built-in sensors underneath interact with Active RFID (Radio Frequency Identification tags, (using something akin to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Technology), for signal ID verification of movement above the field, tracking movements of ball/players and half-time shows...

Howstuffworks compares CRT's with LED Jumbo TV screens.  Worth a check.  Good luck.

Juxtaposition is an element of a play that creates a relationship between two concepts in order to show a contrast between them

The best examples are probably in the "too too solid flesh" soliloquy.  There the distinction between earthly things and heavenly things, and the distinction between King Hamlet and Claudius.  Also, when Prince Hamlet is addressing Yorick's skull, he draws comparisons between living and dying

Call the credit companies - sush as Equifax and put a freeze on your credit in addition to calling the credit card company. Depending on your credit card most of the time they do not hold you liable for fraudulent charges.

Have a stomach flu and can't stop throwing up

First, try sipping plain water slowly. Start out with a couple of sips, and see if you hold it down. Try drinking the water normally, and see if that works. Then, try gatorade or an electrolyte solution(pedialyte or similar, availiable at a pharmacy). DONT drink clear soda, this will irritate your stomach. Once you know you can hold down water, try the other liquids you need for nutrition, since you won't be able to hold down solids yet. Once a day passes, you can try some solids. Start out with crackers and bread, and make sure you hold it down until you move on. You can try watery fruits, like watermelon or melons, too. The last thing you should eat is dairy and especially meat, as they require a lot of energy to break down, which when you have a stomach virus, you don't have. Hope this helps, feel better!


Can you tell me about the UN campaign for ozone layer depletion and global warming?

The previous answer is incorrect that there is no relation between the two problems. UNEP reports that global climate change may be slowing the healing process of the ozone layer. Warming of the atmosphere near the earth's surface actually causes cooling of the stratosphere and the cooler temperatures accelerate the chemical reactions that destroy ozone molecules.  Further, the US EPA reports that increased levels of ultraviolet-B radiation can be expected to worsen global warming by reduction of plant and phytoplankton populations. The two problems are tied in complex ways that involve feedback from both systems affecting the other. \nHere is the US EPA booklet:\nhttp://www.epa.gov/ORD/WebPubs/stratoz.pdf\n\nThe UN formed the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change that resulted in the controversial Kyoto Protocol in 1997.  The UN has an excellent website that gives details on the history, the text of the protocol, some of the science, and status. \nhttp://unfccc.int/2860.php\n\nThe UN is also involved in trying to solve ozone depletion. In 1987 the Montreal Protocol was signed by international parties. They agreed to phase out chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, carbon tetrachloride, and methyl chloroform usage which all cause ozone depletion in the atmosphere. These chemicals are used in dry cleaning, fire extinguishers, and in refrigeration. Many of these chemicals had begun phase out in the United States prior to the protocol due to EPA regulations. The UN's World Meteoroligal Organization and UNEP sponsor assessments of the ozone hole regularly. \n\n\n\nWhile the Montreal Protocol produced positive results during the late 1990's the problem has recently gotten worse- and then improved again!. Here is a NOAA graph showing that:\nhttp://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/stratosphere/sbuv2to/gif_files/ozone_hole_plot.png\n\nThe US EPA has an impressive list of links to ozone depletion information. \nhttp://www.epa.gov/ozone/science/#specinfo

What alcoholic drink has the lowest calories?\nSomething you can order in a bar.

I have comp running win98 that has a 4GB hard drive. I installed a 10GB HD and use that as a network drive that both comps use. I moved alot of files to the 10GB drive most of which came from the 4GB drive to free up some space on it. I'm down to less than 200 megs on this drive.\n\nHow do I free up space on this 4gb drive with out wiping out the whole drive? The OS boots from this drive.

Delete files. Often you can delete old preference files or internet temp files.\n\nYou could also mirror your 4 gig to the 10 gig and boot off that drive and wipe the 4 gig drive.\n\nBut you have to ultimately delete non critical files to make more space, or invest in a new machine or at least more storage.


how do i resize the background image to fit the screen size of the viewer looking at my website?

There is no Stretch-to-Fit like on a Windows Desktop. Basically you have two options. The first is to pick a small background that looks good when it's tiled. Because that's what the browser will do.\n\nThe second option is to create a relatively large background, let's say 1280 X 1024 and set the BGPROPERTY = "FIXED".

According to a Chicago University study, around 300 to 400 people convert to Islam every day, in the US. Over the last few years, Muslim population has increased 235% in Europe. How come so many people convert to Islam when it is percieved as an extremist ideology.\n       And out of the people who convert to Islam in the US, 70% are Women, and mostly single women. Why do 'independent' women, belonging to  the most 'democratic' and 'free' society where women are the most liberated in the World, convert to a religion that is percieved to be suppressing women and not offering them any rights?

Because...A true religion is always hated in some parts of the world where the faithfuls of the true religion is tortured or being discriminated for practising what are right and the true religion is accepted in some parts where the main numbers of people are not the faithfuls but are attracted by the truth of the faithfuls in the parts of the world where people of their own (the unfaithfuls) do no justice and violated the faithfuls of the truth.\nConfused?\n\nHypocricy.\nThe Orientalists claim that Islam is blah, blah, blah, not just to women yet are the Orientalists being fair to women worldwide?\nThey are using lame proofs. They are wasting their energy trying to finger out Islam's weaknesses but they are truely hypocretes.\n\nTake the situation as this:\nOne daughter is asking her dad's blessings in marrying her prince-to-be who is kind, honest, and loveable but not of the same blood and religion.\nSo, the father realises that and try to save his generation from running out from the bloodline and religion especially skin colour and ancestral practise. So, he brainwashed his daughter by saying bad things about the guy. The father rather than accepting her choice, he makes up lies. \nThe result, the daughter is brainwashed and cancels her choice.\n\nGenerations later..The same scenario happens with the same characteristics of the father before but the daughter now is a strong perseverer. She does not listen to her father's lies and get herself out from her weak religion.\n\nSo, during the time between the first scenario and the second one, the first father must have mustered a lot of lame excuses for not letting people get out of their ancestral religion. Many other people had been brainwashed.\nThe descendants of them now are having one big trouble when they discovered that nowadays people especially women are converting into the true religion. Without hesitation, the Orientalists now are pouring a lot of lame excuses to finger out Islam's weakness although for centuries they have not found any and will not.\nTime-wasters, hypocretes and fools they are.\nA true religion is always the most hated by many and the most loved by many.            \n\nPlease consider a recheck on my answer. Do not also forget that there are also other factors and think always. Thank you.


i know its 'cuse it contain water, but water or steam but it has no color!!

All clouds are white.  That is, any time you are on the same side of a cloud as the sun, the cloud will look white.\n\nYou think some clouds look gray because you have been looking at them from the ground, and when you look up, the cloud is blocking most of the sunlight that would otherwise be coming through to you.\n\nAs the following site says, "...clouds look gray when they block sunlight. The thicker the cloud, the more light it blocks."

I am really aching for a new tattoo. I thought a small but tasteful one on the inside of my wrist would look nice, but I am concerned with the professional world. Right now, my job would be okay with it. But I am concerned with future jobs. I would get it small enough to conceal it if need be, but is it unwise to do that?

You're thinking the right way.  Someday you might be in a position in a job where your appearance is critical.  A tattoo in an area that isn't concealable might be a hindrance.  You can't tell what people might think of it. I've had a tattoo for almost 20 years, and only the people I want to see it have seen it.  It's normally covered and not an issue.  As a matter of fact, I am considering a rather large tattoo (at least 8") right now and have to decide if I want it to be openly seen, partially, or not at all. I'm well established in my career, and a tattoo will not influence my job.  I still think about what others might think of it, though
