Lucrezia Borgia, alias the Black Widow?????\n\nHere is info for ya\n\nLUCREZIA \n\n \n \n\n1480 - 1519\n\nNo single portrait of Lucrezia Borgia captures her contradictory nature more than an allegorical painting by Titian that hangs in the Borghese Gallery in Rome. The painting shows Lucrezia on one edge of a small pool, a naked Venus on the other, and a small cupid between them. The allegory is intended to represent sacred love (Lucrezia) and profane love (Venus). Such is the historical paradox of Lucrezia Borgia.\n\n \nLucrezia and Venus by Titian\n(Galeria Borghese, Rome) \n \nLucrezia was the daughter of Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia and his mistress, Vannozza de Cattanei. By the age of eleven, she had been betrothed twice, but both times Rodrigo had rescinded the betrothals. After Rodrigo became Pope Alexander VI, he married her off to Giovanni Sforza, thus establishing an alliance with that powerful Milanese family. The marriage was by proxy, and for four months after her marriage, until the arrival of her new husband in Rome, Lucrezia lived in a handsome palace next to the Vatican with the Pope's new mistress, Guilia Farnese. (Guilia's husband was conveniently away in the Pope's service.) The house was next to the Vatican palace, and Alexander could easily come and go, visiting his daughter and mistress unobserved. A formal wedding ceremony was held shortly after Sforza's arrival, with 500 ladies attending the bride, led by the Pope's mistress. A sumptuous wedding banquet was held, with a work by the ancient Roman playwright Plautus performed, a comedy about libertines, mistresses, and pimps. It was a scandalous event, but not much more opulent than many Renaissance celebrations.\n\nAfter spending two years as the Countess of Pesaro, located in the region where the Pope had sent his son-in-law on a military expedition, Lucrezia returned to Rome with her husband. She served as her father's hostess at diplomatic receptions. Soon, Giovanni Sforza's presence in the papal court meant nothing, since the Borgias no longer needed the Sforzas. New political alliances made the link to the Sforza family no longer of significance to the pope. Lucrezia, informed by her brother Cesare that Giovanni was to be murdered, warned her husband, and he fled Rome. This may have been a ploy on the part of Cesare and Lucrezia to drive her husband away. Lucrezia was delighted to be rid of her boring husband, and Alexander and Cesare even more delighted with the prospect of arranging another profitable marriage for Lucrezia. Of course, they first had to get rid of Giovanni Sforza.\n\n \nLucrezia Borgia by Bartolomeo Veneziano \nAlexander swung into action. He asked Giovanni's uncle, Cardinal Ascanio Sforza, to get his nephew to agree to a divorce. Giovanni refused, and turned to others in his powerful Milanese family. They, however, were reluctant to quarrel with the Pope, and knowingly suggested the defense of Giovanni's proving his manhood by sleeping with Lucrezia while observed by members of the Borgia and Sforza families. Giovanni rejected the proposal --- as his relatives knew he would --- and counterattacked. He accused Lucrezia of incest with her father and her brothers, Cesare and Giovanni, the Second Duke of Gandia.\n\nThe Pope used the only valid argument for annulment, the non-consummation of the marriage, and he offered his son-in-law all of his daughter's dowry. The head of the Sforza family threatened to withdraw his protection if his nephew refused the Pope's offer. Giovanni Sforza had no choice, and signed a confession of impotence and the documents of annulment before witnesses.\n\nSo much for husband number one. He was actually quite fortunate to escape with his life.\n\nDuring the bargaining over the divorce, Lucrezia retired to a nearby convent, her only communication with her father during her enforced stay being messages brought by a young chamberlain, Perotto. Six months later, pregnan

I was raised a Christian but, unfortunately, life and time has drawn me away from the church. However, I'm still very interested in it and I occasionally have questions. This question is the strangest one I've had, so please try to be as serious as possible when answering it for me. It's very important because I've wondered about this my whole life:\n\nWhere are dinosaurs mentioned in the Bible? I've never heard of God even mentioning their creation or existance in the Bible. They were VERY large creatures who once ruled the entire planet, but I wonder where their existance is recorded within the Bible.

Dinosaurs are never mentioned explicitly in the Bible, if at all. I have already seen you have been pointed to Job for Leviathan and Behemoth. That's the only potential mention in the Bible of dinosaurs.\n\nI see the creation story at the beginning of Genesis as a very quick overview - not a scientific textbook on how God made the world, but more of an overview to say "God made the universe, then he made man, then man screwed up and let's pick up with these people here." So, to me, the beginning stories - the creation and fall - are there as a quick introduction that sets the tone and the themes for, really, the entire rest of the Bible.

my four almost five year old brother is autistic and has been on the diet for a while now.\nhave any of you tryed it and do you think it works

It doesn't work.\n\nAutism is something you treat, not cure.\n\nSorry, but bluntness is best.


if you woke up in the middle of the night and saw a old raggy\nrat chewing on you leg?

What kind of question is this for the Politics and Government section of Yahoo answers?  Are you that bored?\n\nP.S.  I'd freak out so badly, that I'd wrench my back to the point of immobility, and then have to watch helplessly as the rat devours whatever it can fit in its furry little belly.\n\nWhoa.... sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock movie.\n\nBut seriously, what the hell is a question like yours doing here?


Hi,\n\nI know there was a movie called "lightning Jack" but I thought it was a fictitious character based on numerous Aussie bushrangers. I thought they drew the name from Captain Thunderbolt.


in a islamic way what does he like .................food , poses , attitude

The Holy Prophet Muhammad, is reported to have said that the best among men is the one who is best in his treatment to his wife. Hadhrat Ayesha, his honoured wife (may Allah be pleased with her), is reported to have replied to those who desired to know more about the Holy Prophet's character after his death: His character was the Quran. He practised what he preached and he preached what he practised. `Muhammad' literally means the Praised One and the Holy Quran says: \n\nAllah sends down His blessings on the Prophet and His angels pray for him. O ye who believe, you too should invoke God's blessings on him and salute him with the salutation of peace. (33:57) \nHe was not an innovation as a Prophet (46:10) and there are prophecies about his advent both in the Torah and the Gospels (7:58). The Holy Prophet had a promise of divine protection (5:68) and was guarded and helped by the angels (13:12 & 66:5).\n\nThere is no myth or mystery about his life. His life was an open book. He was known as the Truthful and the Honest one and lived a pure life before his claim to prophethood (10:17). Every detail about his life is well preserved in history. It is a well known fact that he was not able to read or write as he never had the opportunity to go to any school to learn from any teacher. God was his teacher. He received his call from God at the age of forty to proclaim the message of Islam to mankind:\n\nThere is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger.\n\nThe Holy Prophet's life was dedicated to the dual purpose of re-establishing on earth the Unity of God, our Creator, Who alone is worthy of our worship and through establishing that relationship with God people should become civilized and behave justly towards one another.\n\nHis mission was to recite the Signs of God, teach people the book and wisdom and purify them (2:130 & 62:2-3).\n\nIt is a historical fact that when the Meccans offered to give him anything he wanted, his reply was totally uncompromising on the question of the Unity of God. He said: \n\nI will not renounce my message from God even if they put the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left. \n\nThe Holy Prophet and his followers suffered all kinds of injuries and persecution at Mecca for thirteen long years and when life for them became unbearable, they migrated to Medina. The Meccans having failed in their plot to kill the Prophet, now pursued the Muslims to Medina. God then permitted the believers to fight the aggressors in order to end persecution and to defend their rights. \n\nThe Holy Quran was revealed to the Holy Prophet over a period of twenty-three years which was just completed before he died (and all Prophets had died before him, 4:154) at the age of sixty-three. The religion of Islam was firmly established in Arabia. \n\nHe was a perfect man (22:2), a perfect leader (36:2) and an excellent exemplar for mankind (33:22). God says: \n\nO Prophet, We have sent thee as a witness, and a bearer of glad tidings and a warner, and as a summoner unto Allah by His command and a light-giving sun. (33:46-47) \nHadhrat Muhammad was Allah's Messenger for all mankind (4:80, 7:159, 34:29). He was sent as a mercy for all mankind (21:108). He received revelation from God as did previous Prophets (4:164, 42:4) and he was enjoined to convey the revelation to the people (5:68). He was commanded to be alert and ever ready to spread the truth (74:2) and saw his success in the propagation of Islam during his life time (110:3). \n\nHis message was universal (34:29) and he always yearned that mankind should believe (18:7, 26:4, 93:8). He was the Seal of the Prophets (33:41) and achieved the highest status in nearness to Allah (53:9). The Holy Quran says: \n\nWhoso obeys Allah and this Messenger shall be among those upon whom Allah has bestowed His favours - the Prophets, the Faithful ones, the Martyrs and the Righteous; and they are excellent companions. (4:70)


Once the earth is over populated..human have to move to the other alternative planet.\nAre there evidences which can proove that humans can live on mars? Research shows that theres life signal on mars..if there is life on mars then human also possible to live on mars.

>>> Once the earth is over populated..\n\nThe Earth is never going to be overpopulated. The population is already stabilising and will begin to decline with your lifetime.\n\n>>>>>Are there evidences which can proove that\n>>>> humans can live on mars?\n\nNot a chance ATM. People can only barely live in Antarctica, and that is a place with fairly breathable atmosphere, mild temperatures and resupply possible for 6 months of every year. But life in Antarctica is still a struggle.\n\nMars makes Antarctica look like the Bahamas. Even the warmer parts of Mars are colder in mid-summer than an Antarctic winter. The atmosphere is unbreathable and we couldn't afford to re-supply more than once every three or four years. The absolute best we could hope for a few years for an exploration/research team to stay there.\n\n\n>>>>Research shws that theres life signal on mars..\n\nNo, it doesn't. Some very hopeful people and some people chasing funding have tried to spin it that way. There is absolutely no evidence that Mars has ever had life.\n\n>>>>if there is life on mars then human also \n>>> possible to live on mars.\n\nNo, it doesn't work that way. There is life at the bottom of the ocean too, and life in the interior mountains of Antarctica, and life 5 miles below the ground in solid rock. Humans can not possibly live in any of those places.\n\nThe simple presence of life does not mean that humans can survive in a location.


Do you think the Millitary Government and scientists have pondered cloning the bodies of our fallen soldiers, which have no families to give them a formal burial, as future Millitary Defense?

No, because cloning is just an expensive way to make a baby. It's cheaper to just get recruits the old-fashioned way with lies about patriotism, honor, and national defense.

not all of them have the scent.i notice it is more with dark skin latinas.i didnt know if it was their diet or ....?

This is probably your nose telling you the female is genetically compatible to yourself. In human sweat, bacteria produce waste products from protein and hydrocarbon material that was produced by your genetic programming. These waste products still carry information from the genetic code. The adult "nose" and related brain regions have learned to discern compatible notes of sweat from incompatible or too similar notes of sweat, and define a certain range of similarity as attractive.

I'll be brief...my friend's parents will not let her go to prom...so she has decided to move out with her boyfriend, who she has only dated for a week. She says she is in love with him, she doesn't know what love is yet. How do I tell her, she is my best friend, (for about 7 yrs now) but I'm afraid she will not listen to me. I need suggestions on how to talk to her, she's looking for apartments tomorrow. HELP

Honestly, this situation sounds rhetorical in that her parents have enough control to not allow her to go to a prom but not enough control to prevent her from moving out while still in high school. In any case, my suggestion is to be her friend and let her know precisely how you feel about the situation but that you will still support her, right or wrong, as long as she is willing to accept ALL the consequences of her actions.


ummm, not for me....i'm asking for a "friend".

I'm her 'friend"..and ummmm yea, like...I put it down when I use to work at the Massage Parlor downtown.  Was no prob...I mean AS IF!


i am eating very healthily, i drink at least two litres of water a day, and i am generally trying to be more active. I have been doing this for a few weeks now and feel much better. I have lost about 8 pounds and am starting to use my excercise bike and do aerobics. To tone up and lose the most weight how often and how long should i use excercise bike for and aerobics too? will i lose more weight do you think?

It sounds like you're on the right track.  Use your exercise bike at least 3 times a week for 30 minutes.  Add weight training to your regimen.  Weight training adds lean muscle mass.  The more lean muscle mass you have, the more calories your body burns at rest.  Remember, muscle weighs more than fat, so if you lower your body fat you might not notice the difference on your scale.  Go by how you look and how your clothing fits.  Good luck!!


No improvement with Caicium suppliments, Vit D, or Alpha D3

I had a total thyroidectomy and the parathyroids came out too (they were stuck to all the scar tissue on my thyroid from all my RAI treatments)  So..my body is totally dependent on calcium and vitamin D supplements.  I take 50 mcg Calcitriol (vit D) and 2000mg OsCal daily.  My levels are monitored every 3 mos but since having a baby, my body has changed quite a bit.  I've had 3 hypercalcemic crisis' since that time, all landing me in the ER and a nice 2 day hospital visit (10 days after birth of my daughter) with calcium levels of 16 each time (normal being 9) between having a baby, losing a lot of weight quickly (IBS) and being dehyrdated when ill I've had my share!  I'm seeing a really good endocrinologist who is supposedly the calcium expert and has run extensive testing on me.  If you live in the NY metro area, email me at mooseny35@yahoo.com and I will gladly provide you with his info.


My skin was chemicaaly lightened drastically using Hydroquinone it affected both my hair and skin. I have naturally Black hair. I know you can purchase tablets to keep you hair black (If anyone knows, please tell me where I can purchase them.) But with regard to my skin colour I dont know how to make myself darker again are there particular foods, Vitamens, Tablets i can take? Amy info greatly appreciated.

There are certain things about your situation you didn't mention, like what is the natural ethnicity of your skin colour. Its cold hearted to suggest asking Michael Jackson, who has never darkened his skin and remains a mystery how it was lightened in the first place (he claims to have vitiligo which looks much different than what he is suggesting). You are obviously troubled by this. Tanning, if your skin has the ability now, is unsafe as there is risk of skin cancer developing. See a hair dresser about hair colour and see a doctor about your skin condition. I wouldn't take a pill that claims to alter hair colour. Hydroquinone is not available in some countries due to cancer risk factors.


Oh I know lure them in with chocolate, and then knock them out cold with a hammer


The leaves are compound with three almond-shaped leaflets, giving rise to the mnemonic, "Leaves of three, let it be". The berries (actually drupes) are a grayish-white color and are a favorite winter food of some birds.\n\nThe color ranges from light green (usually the younger leaves) to dark green (mature leaves), and bright red in fall. The leaflets are 3-12 cm long, rarely up to 30 cm. Each leaflet has a few or no teeth along its edge, and the leaf surface is smooth. To compare, blackberry and raspberry leaves also come in threes, but they have many teeth along the leaf edge, and the top surface of their leaves are very wrinkled where the veins are. The stem and vine are brown and woody, while blackberry stems are green with thorns.\n\n \nPoison ivy flowersVirginia creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) vine can look like poison ivy. The younger leaves can come in groups of three but have a few more serrations along the leaf edge, and the leaf surface is somewhat wrinkled. Virginia creeper and poison ivy very often grow together, even on the same tree.\n\nWestern Poison-oak leaves also come in threes on the end of a stem, but each leaf is shaped somewhat like an oak leaf. Western Poison-oak only grows in the western United States, although many people will refer to poison ivy as poison-oak. This is because poison ivy will grow in either the ivy-like form or the brushy oak-like form depending on the moisture and brightness of its environment. The ivy form likes shady areas with only a little sun, and tends to climb the trunks of trees, and can spread rapidly along the ground.\n\nPoison Sumac\n\nBlackberry vines bear a passing resemblance to poison ivy, with whose climate they overlap. The chief difference with blackberry vines is that they have spines on them, whereas poison ivy is smooth. Also, the three-leaf pattern of the leaves changes as the plant grows: the two bottom leaves both split into two leaves, for a total of five in a cluster.\n\nDead poison ivy still has plenty of urushiol, and will cause the same effect. The thick vines of grape, with no rootlets visible differ from the vines of poison ivy, which have so many rootlets that the stem going up a tree looks furry.

Whats the difference between the mass number and the relative atomic mass of an element? Is the mass number the rank of the element?

hello iam aditya i like this question. the difference is only of some points. i think .001 or something. and yes mass number is the total numbers of protons n nuetrons while relative atomic mass is the mass compared to that of the 12th part of the carbon atom.


What could "There is irregular inhomogeneous density in the lower poles of both kidneys, greater on the right than the left." mean? I have been suffering with pain across my kidneys for months, in February I went to the hospital for the extreme pain on my right side and ended up with an appendectomy (which didn't help the pain). I just received the report from my CT scan and that was in it. What possible things could it mean?

To answer this question, you will need to consult with your doctor.  A radiologist will have to review the CT scan with you doctor in order to determine the significance of the irregular density in the lower poles of your kidneys. You may require an additional CT scan with contrast or and MRI with contrast to determine what these densities are.\n\nA 'renal scan' will not be helpful in this case.  This is a 'functional' test and measures the ability of the kidneys to excrete (pass) a nuclear 'dye'.  It can be used to compare function between your kidney and is often used as a test to help determine a condition where there is decreased blood flow to one of the kidneys (a condition called renal artery stenosis).\n\nIt is important to make sure that these densities are a normal variant and not something that you have to worry about (for example kidney cancer).  Given that they are in the same location and on both sides I would think that this is highly unlikely, but this is always important to determine.  Suggested further testing, if needed, is usually part of a CT report, but I would make sure that these densities are benign.\n\nUnfortunately, you are complaining of pain.  Irregular densities, solitary cysts, and even cancers rarely cause pain.  Medical testing is designed to eliminate (rule out) causes of diseases that are harmful and usually does a good job of this.  However, the absence of any findings on the CT  to explain the pain you are experiencing does not mean that the cause of the pain can't be determined or that the pain can't be treated.  There are many causes of back pain/kidney pain that are not picked up by a CT.\n\nPlease follow up with your doctor and make sure he or she is answering your questions.  Best of luck.


I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the illness in the episode with the woman having cunvulsions that kills the baby... please help me out

I have a few asian friends.  Many times when we walk past a group of mexicans, they utter the word, "CHINO".  Is this some type of slander?

lol...thats pretty funny to hear, i live in los angeles, so i know exactly what your talking about. you probably hear them say, 'mira, ese chino!' they are saying 'looks, theres that chinese guy'= which they mean to refer to that asian guy. i know it feels pretty offensive, but its the same wiht the hispanics, if your hispanic, they automatically call you 'mexican' even if your 0 blood mexican.

Is there any Project Management software that might apply to farming?\nAre there any Project Management software forums to inquire?\n\nI need something to help set up and monitor a production schedule for seedlings/liners for an ornamental plant nursery?. \n\nI think that basic spreadsheet type software is just not up to tracking all the multiple interacting variables involved: e.g. present stock, sales, attrition, hundreds of species/varieties, growing locations, age/size, quality concerns, etc.\n\n(Perhaps some university has published some such "planting schedule" software already ...? )\n\nI just don't know enough about PM software yet to even know where to start to find out.\n\nThank you,\n\nRobert\n\nDania Beach, FL\n\n954 922-4527

From your description, strictly speaking you're not after project management software, but rather production scheduling or manufacturing resource planning software.\n\nProject management software is intended to manage projects that have a beginning and an end, whereas I think you're after something to manage an ongoing farming operation.\n\nThere's certainly a variety of existing farm related s/w on the market, but I don't know if it would meet your needs.

We got Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Beckham, J Cole\n\nSurely, we have the best chance ever... Gerrard is pure class! \n\nEN-GER-LAND! EN-GER-LAND! EN-GER-LAND!  LA LA!\nEN-GER-LAND! EN-GER-LAND! EN-GER-LAND!  LA LA!\n\nENGLAND!

I support u!!! Of course England will win!!! They have Gerrard, Rooney, Lampard and John Terry. Owen can be dangerous if he is in top form. He scores 7 goals out of 10 matches. Brazil can win but if Ronaldiho is injured, i dun think they will win.


Why can't I ever sleep between 11pm and 6am...but then I doze off at work all day or come home and sleep from 5pm to 11pm!??!  It's horrible!!!  I just cannot get my sleep straightened out.  I've tried various sleeping pills, but once i stop, the sleep problem comes back!  I'm losing my mind!!!

maybe your a night person? hmm try doing everything you can to stay up during the day like getting up walking around and do not drink caffine products after 4pm and do not eat sweets either only water and try working out when you get home and stay awake. The longer each day you stay awake the more you will sleep at night and if that does not work out then see a doctor.

i found out 3 years ago that i have hpv the type that gives genital warts every couple months im going back to the doctor to get the acid treatments they are  small but as soon as i get them taken off a couple months later more come in diffrent spots. im at the point now where i want to cut the dam things off i quit smoking quit on the sweets i did everything they told me to do but they keep comming back i wish they would hurry up and come up with a cure for this virus already. anything at all that can help me keep these things away and finally put the virus to sleep will be great!

this lady is not looking to know what the virus is\nyou people that go on a website and paste shit are stupid.\nnow anyway i have had my hpv for about 5 yrs now. and my warts were small also and i went threw the acid treatments i know what u are feeling and believe me i am so thankful they are all gone. i quit smoking also but i started back up again and they still went away. they said there is a vacine not to get it but so far nothing for us people that have it. maybe one day we will get lucky enough i think they are more worried about the aids and cancer though. it does seem a bit more important. the cream is expensive but it is worth it in the long run. u can do ur own treatments at home and alot less painful then that acid. go to the store and get some imune system builders and build ur imune system up thats ur best bet eat a healthy diet exercise. i was shaving the one time and i had one down there and i cut it off with the razor omg did that hurt... to make ur treatments less painful. do not shave down there until the virus is sleeping. and don't wash ur skin down there 4 hrs before u go to the doctor. take some pain medacation about a hour before ur doctors visit. until your body can fight it off to sleep mode then u don't really got much of a choice but to follow them simple steps and get the cream its so much better then having to drive to the doc and not be able to sit on the way home. good luck and keep me posted as to how u are comming along and if what i told u works.....

This is a public pool which opens sometime around Memorial Day weekend.


we are the best of friends. told her everything how i feel for this guy from the start. the guy knew how i feel. they have been close. she said there are just "close friends" nothing more, nothing less. but i found out that they have something special. confirmed it, its true. how would you feel?

I want to say that your friend is wrong for going about it the WRONG way. She should have been honest and maybe it wouldn't feel so bad when it's happened. You have every right to feel betrayed because she was not completely honest with you. Nevertheless we all are humans and as the person before me stated, people act on their instincts. She had a crush on him, or maybe she thought she did or whatever it may be, the realization is that they're having that special thing while you're hurt from it. What I would do is move on. I'd give her my well-wishing and if I could handle being friends with her, I'd maintain contact with her. Don't fall for the "third-wheel" plots, I hate those, make sure to avoid them because you may find yourself becoming extremely angry at your friend and her not knowing it. That's all I can see myself doing in this situation is just moving on. Good luck with this.


My boy friend came and spend the memorial weekend and he he supprises me with a nice ring ... I meant its beautiful but it was suppose just a simple ring but he said its a pre engagement ring can any one help me out on this one? " confuse"

A promise ring is a ring given as an outward and physical expression, or symbol, of a promise made between two people. \n\nTraditionally, the promise ring is given for virtually any type of promise made between two people - either romantic or platonic.  A popular reason to give promise rings includes Pre-engagement:  If you're sure she's the right one for you, but not quite ready for engagement, the pre-engagement ring expresses commitment to the relationship and a promise for the future together. \n\nThe most important rule in giving a promise ring is to be up-front about the terms of the promise, especially if the ring contains a diamond.  There is nothing more heartbreaking than a person reading something into a gift of a ring that is more than intended!  A simple note accompanying the ring, to be read prior to opening the gift, can clarify your sentiments.


Why is the probability of finding a particle at specific position at a certain time proportional to psi SQR??

In the begining it was considered that the wave-function psi is merely an auxiliary mathematical quantity employed to facilitate computations relative to experimental results. This is true to certain extent in certain cases, e.g., in calculating intensity of the waves scattered by a crystal in the direction of the detector; but it does not seem reasonable to introduce an isolated mathematical function without enquiring into its physical significance. \n\nSchrodinger himself attempted the physical interpretation of psi in terms of charge-density. In the experiment of diffraction of electrons (like X-rays diffraction), one might use the optical analogy to arrive at the physical significance of psi. In any electromagnetic system if A is the amplitude of the wave, then the energy density, i.e., energy per unit volume is equal to A^2, so that the number of photons per unit volume, i.e., photon density is equal to (A^2)/[h(nu)], where h(nu) is the energy of a photon. This means that the photon density is proportional to A^2 as h(nu) is constant. \n\nBy analogy, if psi is the amplitude of the matter wave at any point in space, then the number of material particles per unit volume, i.e., the particle density must be proportional to (psi)^2. Thus, the SQUARE OF ABSOLUTE VALUE OF psi IS A MEASURE OF THE PARTICLE DENSITY.


i  have been watching the nba playoffs for a while...and every years it gets worse...i like a buissness majority of them teams have to go to game 7 or 6 so that the can make more money. i find it kinda boring. i think they should come up with elimation rounds make it more exciting. if they say basketball cant be deceided that way well its time to set up and the teams which can hold the nerve will win. just wondering how many agree its just a money making sheme? and ppl who dont y?

I agree with cooley.  The are not overall fixed.  However, by extending the series, companies can make money on broadcasting and advertisement.  Sometimes, I feel the refs are biased in their calls..but for the most part I don't think they are fixed.  I really feel the first round should go back to a 5 game series.


I have some extra fat around my mid section...should I lose the fat first then start a sit up regimen or just start doing sit ups?

Sit ups and crunches will help build and tone muscle in this area, but you cannot reduce fat in specific areas with targeted exercise...  You'll just build more and more muscle underneath the fat, which makes you look even worse.  The only way to reduce fat is by lowering calorie intake and doing more exercise in general, where you break the "carb wall."  Jogging is great (but bad on the knees!)\n\nBut there's no real reason you can't do both, weight loss and muscle toning at once.  The crunches do burn calories, you just can't control where the fat cells are burned from.


when i send an email it says the email is from PIMP DADDY how do i get rid of it?? i have changed all options and edited it and it still says PIMP DADDY

I have broad band conection, how do I make my computer faster? My speed test veries from 680 kps download to 200 kps upload. My download should be about 1500 kps download.

Note sure how you tested the speed, but you should first use a connection speed test program (many out there, for example http://reviews.cnet.com/7004-7254_7-0.html). Your BB provider may also have a test program. \n\nIf it looks like the speed is still slow afer testing, there is little you can do on your computer (download accelerators do not help w/ large files, just web pages), and you need to call your BB provider to see if the line to your house might be noise (in which case they will automatically throttle the speed), or you are too far away from the CO (which limits the maximum speed of your connection)

It depends on the type of diabetes.\n\nThere are cases of pregnant women that only get diabetes when pregnant, gestational diabetes, which only affects her during her pregnancy. Any surgery wounds should heal normally but there is a chance of developing Type 2 diabetes afterward.\n\nIf the mother already has diabetes, the wound will still heal but it will take a great deal longer.\n\nA small cut on a non-diabetic person of about 2 inches in length, 1/2 inch in depth heals within 2-3 days; a similar cut on a diabetic will take between 3 and 5 times longer.

Do you think we the people should stand up and fight them

Only for public usage, and only if they pay just recompense (per 5th Amendment). Recently, the courts have allowed the local governments to violate this right, where they take land from people and give it to other private people or companies to build on, because they would pay more taxes. \n\nThat a court could decide that violations of our unabridgeable rights is OK deserves impeachement.\n\nIt's a sad, sad day when the courts, again, steal our rights from us.\n\nA revolution against the greedy politicians would be a correct thing to do.

I am thinking about looking into meditation and I just wanted to see what the benefits are for the people who pratice it.

Meditation is quite the joy! Yes, once you get past the initial mastering of the self, thoughts and blockages, its a sweet ride.\n\nMeditation has done a lot for me. Thanks to anon nature, I can frankly tell you I was quite a distraught fella, burdened and hopeless with no life: social or otherwise.\n\nMeditation opened up blocked chakras, re-energized the inner being through union of Kundalini and Spirit and stopped the buzz of the brain.\n\nMeditation brought humility of some good measure. Ability to understand and feel others. Ability to accept and be peaceful with belligerent people. Loosen up and see the humor behind it all.\n\nMeditation has done quite it's bit my transforming me and there is a long path to go before everything's close to perfection. But the joy should come from the start.\n\nHere is a good place to start, from the heart:\nhttp://www.sahajayoga.com.au/info/experience/default.asp.shtml


its an educational question. what are the fields related with science after school for higher education

you can always go to B.Sc microbiology or biochemistry or something like that and become a research scholar or if you are really good at it ,u can go 4 doc or related phisiotherapy or dentistry ,etc...


for example: in the U.S. the republic party, & democratic party compete for political support.

rpr is the right, then u have the socialists on the left, and the racists are the front national. hope this helps


He is on pills, and has an appointment with the diabetes teacher and a diatician.  I want to know if there is anything that I can do to help him and to help keep his diabetes under control.  I have asked him what he wants me to do, and he wants me to go with him to his appointments.  There is no question that I will be there, but is there anything else I can do to help him?

Just be there for support and be willing to do the life changes that come with being diabetic, it takes a lot of management and dedication to live healthy with this disease, but as long as he has a good support system it is very manageable


I've been with my bf for 9 months now...and never once thought that he was gay...but today I sent an email to him...decided I didn't want to send it ...went into his email to delete it and found letters from guys he had been emailing from a personals ad..around the area we are in..talking about doing sexual things?? He always seemed to be very into me sexually ...I don't understand. Is he bisexual or something???


Explain why is it important to you?\n\nNo spam please. good answers please.

In the early 70's my little sister gave me a pet rock that she painted herself in school.I've kept it close to me ever since(I still have it).\nThis little rock symbolizes how strong I love my sister and the rest of my family.


On what to get my girl our anniversary is coming up or maybe any ideas what to do where to go???????????

Maby if the weather is nice you can suprize her with a nice pinic lunch out side just the two of yous.Light some candles and make it real romantic. I know my girl friend did that once for me and I can still rember it like as if it was yeasterday. We went down to the lake. Had a radio playing soft music. It was perfect. I couldn't of asked for anything better.

What rituals do atheists share?  What structured belief systems do they follow?  Please give detailed answers.\n\nAlso note:  This question is not for Atheists.  I'm asking Theists so I can try and find out their point of view.

no relataion at all... religion believe of some supernatural and high form of being away from human understanding , atheists are non believers.....\n\n\nReligion is commonly defined as a group of beliefs concerning the supernatural, sacred, or divine, and the moral codes, practices, values, institutions, and rituals associated with such belief. It is sometimes used interchangeably with "faith" or "belief system"[1] In the course of the development of religion, it has taken many forms in various cultures and individuals. Occasionally, the word "religion" is used in the more restrictive sense of "organized religion" — that is, an organization of people supporting the exercise of some religion, often taking the form of a legal entity\n\nAtheism, in its broadest sense, is an absence of belief in the existence of gods. This definition includes both those who assert that there are no gods, and those who make no claim about whether gods exist or not. Narrower definitions, however, often only qualify those who assert there are no gods as atheists, labeling the others as agnostics or simply non-theists.\n\nThere is no single ideology that all atheists share, nor are there any institutionalized rituals or behaviors. There are certain individuals whose religious or spiritual beliefs some might describe as atheistic, though those holding such beliefs do not normally describe themselves as atheists.

Does anyone know who Magwitch was and any other info I could us onhim for a project I am doing?

Magwitch is a convict who escapes from a prison ship (hulk) near the marshes where Pip lives. They come across each other at a nearby cemetery, and Magwitch threatens Pip to get him food and a file so he can break off his handcuffs(but all this must be done in secret so not to reveal where Magwitch has escpaed to). When Pip returns with Magwitch has asked for, it touches him. A few days pass and guards from the hulks come to Pip's uncle, Joe the blacksmith, to fix some of their handcuffs so  they can capture some escaped convicts. Joe asks the guards if they would mind if him and Pip went with them to see (he thinks it is a treat for Pip. Though secretly Pip is terrified that they will find out that he helped Magwitch, but he goes along regardless). They find and arrest the convict, who Pip's suprise, does not reveal how he got the file and food. Years pass, and Pip grows up wealthy because of an secret benefactor who pays for him becoming a gentleman. On his 21st birthday, Pip is astonished to find out that his benefactor is indeed the convict on marshes so long ago (he had thought it was a wealthy lady named miss havisham who always acted as though she was his benefactor). With help from his friend Herbert, Pip sucessfully hides the convict (if discovered death by hanging would be the punishment). Pip later however learns that the conman(Compeysenson) who got Magwitch arrested in the first place, is in London looking for him. Magwitch still remains sucessfully hidden and Pip decides that it is best that Magwitch be taken out of the country (first by rowboat, then he would be smuggled into a bigger ship). They do this and everything goes well, but just as Magwitch is about to get on the bigger ship, Compeysen shows up in with the police in a rowboat and points him out. They bring magwitch back to their boat to arrest them, but once they get there Magwitch pushes Compeysen under the water and the two wrestle. Magwitch is the only one to return from beneath the surface, and is taken away to a prison where he spends the rest of his life. Pip vists him everyday and tells him about his daughter, Estella (who was beleieved to be dead because of her violent mother (magwitch's ex-wife)) is actually alive and living with the wealthy Miss Havisham. Magwitch does not live much more after this and dies due to illness.\n\n*Hope this helped!*


we share 99% of dna... could it be possible??

First of all we have 23 pairs of chromosomes (or 46 chromosomes), and monkeys have  22 pairs of chromosomes. Big deal right? WRONG. When humans make gametes (sperm and egg) each gamete contains a one copy of the hosts DNA, therefore each gamate only contains 23 chromosomes. When the sperm reaches the egg they combine together (zygote) to from a cell that has 46 chromosomes. Any deviation from this number makes the an embryo inviable. ( we wont get into ploidy or trisomys here). Therefore if a human and an ape mated, the chromosome count coming from the human would be 23 and the money would be 22 making the chimera have 45 chromosomes. First of all essential genetic coding inforemation is lost. (AN ENTIRE CHROMOSOME IS MISSING), you have changed the specie. You have created an alleuploidy. (only viable with some plants). The chromosomes in each species are of different sizes. This totaly screws up the cellular functions and inhibits a proteins job. They would not be able to reproduce. And please do not get me started on Mullers moprhs in terms of loss of genetic information, regarding epistasis, incomplete dominance etc.... All you need to know is it would be inviable because the chromosomes are of different numbers, and the chromsome sizes are different.


I've had right leg pain since Oct. 2005.  It didn't get worse so I joined Curves in January 2006 and built up to 5-6 days a week, 30-45 minutes daily.  Also walked a mile 7 days a week.  Leg became worse, PT didn't help, and x-rays showed arthritis in my spine.  I don't feel any better not working out for the last week.  Do I need to cut back or change routine?

With Arthritis you should exercise to tolerance.  Walking 7 days a week is too much.  Your body also needs a rest or recovery period.  Try doing water aerobics, pilates, or yoga.  These are all great low weight bearing classes that will help with mobility and flexibility and balance.  I would avoid doing exercises in a recumbent position.  Such as a bike that has a seat with a back etc...\nI hope your pain becomes more manageable.

I fell in Love w/ my friend and she likes me too but I really wanna make her fall In love with me and enjoy spending time w/ me. What turns girls on? What ways do u like guys to flirt w/ u? What is the best way 2 show a girl u love her and care about her?

Ok, here i go\n1. i like it when a guy pays attention to me, and doesnt go off and talk to another person\n2. one of the things that turns me on is when a guy i know pretty well puts his arm around me\n3. really listen to what is being said, i love a guy when they do\n4. be honest, dont lie to get what you want\n5. i like guys to tell me what they think of me, like i am hott, they like my ass, all the stuff that is true\n6. be interested in what i do, and what i think\n7. call, or comunicate, it always helps\n8. be sweet\n9. show her you care, not just say it but let it show through your actions\n10. and i love it when the guys tickle me at the right moments\n11. cuddle, dont always want to kiss, even though it is fun most of the time, cuddling is special too\n12. i hate clingy guys!!\n13. i love to laugh, so a funny guy is always great


In my opinion, I choose both. I love both of them. Su Su Sudio is my favorite song,and Rory is just a really cool guy. Which is your favorite out of the two?

I would say Phil Collins. I like his album No Jacket Required alot.


I want to make sure that I can drive while taking this.

My first time taking xanex I was unable to drive.  They actually recommend you don't drive when you first take it.  this gives you the opportunity to see how it affects you.  I was told to take it before going to bed.  It made me extremely drowsy.  I do not normally sleep more than 8 hours, but I slept 12 while taking the xanex.  I no longer take it because of that.  But, if you need it then you should because it does help.  I stopped taking it once the zoloft began calming down my OCD and anxiety.


Hi Ladies,and you guys can answer this to. If you look real high on a clear night, the Star twinkle Bright and beautiful just like your Lover does!!!Just look deep in their eyes and you will be lost forever!!!


I'm not exactly sure if this is a bad type of thing, I would seriously doubt it though. My urine is starting to smell just like coffee, espically since I started drinking Jack Daniel's coffee... Anyone else have a similar experence, or know if this is normal?

Dont worry about it. I drink alot of espresso, especially during my testing blocks in med school. My urine smells like coffee too. When you drink alot of caffeine, your body is unable to produce ADH (anti-diuretic hormone) so you tend to urinate often. Your body will filter alot of the coffee that you are putting into your body. It will be in high concentration so in essence, smelling that in your urine is letting you know that your body's filtration system is working. Keep drinking water so you dont get dehydrated.

You play a sport if you meet the following criteria.  NO JUDGES.  A sport cannot be judged.  If someone critiques your performance and gives you a score based off it...it is not a sport.  Sports have two outcomes...You win or your lose and you use your athleticism in any way shape or form to get to winning outcome.  Example...Basketball is sport becuase people don't give you a score based on how you shoot the ball.  All that matters is that it goes in the net. That is what significant.  Opinion's dont' matter, just results, which speak for themselves.  NON sports people are critiqued by others and can only obtain a score based on other people's thoughts.\n\nWhat are your thoughts?

I have heard this argument before.  I would agree that "sports" should not be subject to judging.  One exception I can think of is boxing.  I think it is a sport because someone can get knocked out, so there will be a clear winner and loser.  Maybe the judges in boxing are partly there to keep the fight from going too long.  On the other hand, to compete in events that do require judging such as ice skating, gymnastics, etc. a person must be a very good athlete.  So, I think there are two different things here: 1) a sport, and 2) and athletic competition.

Seeing all this immigrant human rights movement, gay marrige, the abortion issues, makes me think. Can we be on the verge of another civil rights movement like there was in the 60's with Dr. Martin Luther King and all the Women's rights? What do you think?

I don't think we need MORE civil rights.  We simply need more clarity about what our rights really are.  The problems we see today are a result of a very cloudy view that most people have over what are rights and what are merely desires.  \n\nImmigrants, for example, do not have a right to citizenship.  I respect their desire for citizenship, but this is not something they can demand.  We need to go back and rethink what it means to have rights.  Until we do that, it all becomes a big power struggle over who gets what they want.\n\nLiberty for all!

I would like to know which of these three phrases is most commonly used in English:\n\nA travel fair\nA travel exhibition\nA travel exposition\n\nThank you.\nA learner of English

I haven't really heard of a "travel fair" but if a company  had a big conference advertising jobs and looking for new employees, it would be called a "job fair", so I would say "travel fair" would be the most commonly used.  The other two would probably be just as correct, just not as common, and they sound a little awkward and maybe a bit pretentious.

Seriously need your opinions.  No stupid answers from Yankees' fans please.  Thanks!

Seriously?  As a Boston Red Sox fan since birth, I would NOT want to see Roger Clemens come back to Boston and I will tell you why.  When Roger left Boston, there was no amicable parting.  He bashed the team, he bashed the management, he bashed the owners and worst of all, he bashed the fans.  Now, enough time has passed and every Boston fan is weepy eyed at the idea of the ROCKET closing out his career essentially where he began it.  Well you know what I say?  F**k you Roger.  We don't need you, we don't want you and guess what?  We won a ring WITHOUT your help.  Stay in Texas and coach little league.  (I will say this though, at least he had the decency to wait a few years before jumping on the pansy pinstripe bandwagon.  Unlike Johnny Judas.  That back stabbing son of a motherless goat!)


because....\n1. i was on medical leave for 40 days\n2. i was on a vacation for 44 days\n3. in a western country there is no period for a raise\n4. has i ever hurt anybody from my company in the past?

I think you should ask your manager this question.  There could be many reasons.  Have other people been getting raises?  How have your performance reviews been?  Do your research, prepare, and have a conversation with your boss.  Good luck!


I'm planning to do a degree in Vehicle Technology.  Any recommendation?


what gets wetter as it drys? please help me with this.


My bf got fired today from his job. He is salaried. I thought you had to be paid for any vacation time that you haven't taken yet...he gets 3 weeks a year...starting in January I think. Does anyone know if your company has to legally pay you for this?\nThanks!

Yes, he should get paid for it.  Alternatively, if he resigned, he should also get paid for whatever he accrued.  But, this has to be earned time, and it has to be PAID time - not just vacation.  I will note, if he is an attorney or a consultant or part of a profession that is responsible for billable hours, he might not qualify.  He needs to check the policy also, b/c vacation time may not roll over from one year to another.\nMost companies don't voluntarily send you the money - he needs to ask for it, and he should ask for severance.  Usually saying you will file for unemployment unless they give severance prods them into it b/c that is cheaper than having to pay more to the state unemployment fund forever and ever.\nFor Max Power's question, the idea is that, if I were to give notice of quitting on May 1, effective May 15, I could simply take my two weeks earned vacation time starting on May 1, and get paid for the next two weeks - and never show up again.

Is this Muslim practice particularly prevalent in Holland, where the film Submission was produced?

FGM comes in many forms.  What type is done depends on the culture.  It was practiced long before Islam, and unfortunately it is something that Islam was not able to eradicate despite its many rules about not permanently damaging the body except in *male* circumcision, to keep the Abrahamic covenant.\n\nMuslims are even forbidden to get tattoos, much less cut off parts of the body necessary for sexual function.\n\nIn Egypt in particular, it is the norm.  Usually it is done by a doctor who only removes the clitoral hood, but for some people this is not enough.  They have their traditional way of doing things, and often they consider it a rite of passage...pain that a woman should go through so that she will be strong, and so that she will not be distracted by normal sexual desire.  It is rumored that even Cleopatra was circumcised.\n\nSome Bedouin tribes still do female circumcision as well.\n\nSo when these women go to the west, some of them may have it done, and some may not.  It depends on how badly they or their family wishes them to conform to the old ways.  I wouldn't say that it was widely practiced by immigrants, but it is sometimes.\n\n...though in my view, even one who has this done without fully informed consent is a tragedy.\n\nIt may interest you to know that many westerners who are not Muslim have plastic surgery to alter their genitals, including piercing, clitorectomies, and labia reductions.  In the past, before much was known about the nerves in the female genital area, things were done somewhat haphazardly, which resulted in many women losing function from surgery for conditions that exercise and good post natal care would have solved.\n\nThere are also many unnecessary hysterectomies, which is much, much more widespread than external FGM.\n\nI'm not trying to minimize FGM, just to keep it in perspective.  It is something to be active against, and to educate people about, but it should not be used as fuel with which to hate on Muslims.


Do you believe that America is experiencing a "brain drain" crisis, or essentially a drought of knowledge that occurs through:\n1. Poor education\n2. Shortage of Scientists\n3. Lack of interest among children and adults\n4. Just plain ignorance\netc.\n\nIf you do, how severe do you think it is?\nMost well thought out answer gets ten points!

Brain drain you say, see science and politics play hand and hand. My perspective is more optimistic, I do believe that our country has shown signs of distractions, but none of which I believe affects our education, no. See the world around us is at an intense war minded nature, we as Americans are setting certain things aside to be aware of the natures. If a country such as this, isn't fully aware of it's surroundings states a potential mishap may occur. \n\nBrain drain, no, i think more of a brain strain, it's not easy staying afloat politically as an international giant and continue to remember to find times for new discovery's.\n\nSocial Science seems to be our biggest impacts in these streets. More focus's in our neighborhoods are surely clearing the obscenities we still continue to face daily (Crooked politicians, Narrow visioned law enforcement, and bendable court regulation, etc... ) We have to be more alert, no doubt. keeping us more sharp to that of our future.


If so, I would like to know what causes them and how do I get rid of them?

Yes, it's a virus called herpes. They have medicine for it, forgot what it's called. You can also get them on your crotch!


did your period come? I finished it on Friday. Dr. said it could take up to 2 weeks after. I have also read it doesn't bring it on for some people. Anyone know why this is?\n\nI had twins almost 3 months ago and yet to get one on my own (I am not nursing). I have taken an HPT and it was -. I wasn't worried about being PG when I had taken the test..just surprised I hadn't gotten it yet.

It is typical for your body to recover and take some recovery time.  3 months is not unheard of. My SIL took 6 and she did not breast feed either.  I don't know anything about Provera so I can't help you there, but it you are really worried about being PG again you could always call a Doc.


When you are teaching or just observing a student what do you look for? What impresses you? Please be serious with your answers.

I definately agree with Marc c.   A student that looks interested, is on task, is prepared with materials, attempts homework, asks serious questions, may be leaning forward, catches me in mistakes (perfection does not exist on this earth.) etc.  I am not impressed by neat handwriting, flashy posters, fashionable clothes etc. I am impressed when a student phones or e-mails me with a problem.  I am impressed with a self-starter. I am impressed when a student removes himself from a problem in order to be part of the solution.\n(middle school for 30 years and lovin' it for 25!)

i want to know more abt hypnotism. I wonder whether it can actually bring back memories or events which are decades old? can it help in giving u  mental peace?  can i do self hypnosis?

It works on some people and it does not work the others. It depends on people's "biofield". Even hynotists can sense a person that has a weak field and  then they will ask that person to  volunteer. Some hypothitosts ask a group of ppl to put their hand together behind their back and whoever's hands do not untie to voluneeer.

Reading the Bible through in different translations helps it to make more sense.  Start with Living Word, then next year, read through in the NIV translation.  In my opinion, too many of us started with the King James, and that is a difficult translation until you get to know the Bible well.\nGood luck and GOD bless, the journey through the Word is worth it.


Hot and cool..\nWomen say a man is real hot and then they say a man is real cool..\nThese two words are opposites and still women use it to describe an attractive man..\nHow can it be????

A man can be cool because he is a cold hearted jerk but hot because his wife burned his face off with an iron.

If it isn't, why am I so irresistably drawn to this category when I am trying to avoid its bitter injections.\n\nIf it isn't, why do people seem to get so high off asking and answering questions about God, no matter which side of the multi-faceted debate you find yourself?

No.  The idea that there's no God is opiate for the masses.\n\nLike a drug, secularism deludes people.  It deludes them into thinking that they can do whatever they want in this life.\n\nIt also dulls them to the reality that some day, we will all have to answer to God for our behavior.\n\nReligion is the opiate of the masses?  Whoever pushes this idea, is pushing an "opiate" that is far more dangerous, spiritually speaking, than any other "drug" out there.

why don't pray for the God who created Jesus with a miracle? the God Allaha? \n\nhttp://www.boboz.us/oldweb/readme/pagethree.htm

Because Islam was dreamed up more than six centuries after the time of Christ, Islam denies the divinity of Christ, and as the first respondent pointed out you are arguing languages. and you have no valid basis for it. and blondecow131 you are wrong about Islam accepting either Judaism or Christianity.


Why a Jew can grow his beard in order to practice his faith But when Muslim does the same, he is an extremist and terrorist!Why a nun can be covered from head to toe in order to devote herself to God But when Muslimah does the same she is considered oppressed .\n\nEver wonder Why? \n\nNOTE : This question is for sophisticated folks. Not for haters of islam, i am fed up from you guys and i know what you are going to say......for other peoples, please refrain your answers on beard and clothings. Do you think that these two should be the reason to label muslims as terrorist or label muslim woman as oppressed. Thank you.

Because at this point, the media wants someone to vilify and, unfortunately, it's Muslims.

i am working in advertising and i'm a freelancer.  i would like to get more clients what will i do and to get hold of my old clients

The best way I've found to get new clients is to make your existing clients happy, and make them aware that you love referrals.  Additionally, keep an eye out for businesses in your area that might not be doing advertising, and either call or (even better) stop by to talk to the owner/manager.  You can also try websites like guru.com.  \n\nFreelancing is tough and requires a lot of legwork, but it's rewarding working for yourself.

Tell him to let you know where he's coming from if he wants to continue on in a relationship or give up.  And be firm about it.  Stop playing games.

my aunt wants to know when can she retire and at the same time be eligible for Social security and Medicare ,and if so how to do so

She needs to check with Social Security.  You can retire at 59 and a half, but the longer you wait, the more you receive in retirement benefits.  We all also get those statements from SS each year around our birthdays, she should save those, that'll tell her, too.


could you give the verses in the Bible and if not found,why still doing so?

Nowhere in the Bible. All praise and worship is due to God and God alone, and the only way to him is through his Son, the Christ. In fact, when Mary and his siblings went to meet Christ, and his disciples told him that his mother and brothers were there, Christ said, "Who are my mother and My brothers, but those that do the will of God and keep his commandments." Note that the Decalogue he refers to, points to Saturday as the real Sabbath, not the Sunday that was substituted by the Catholic Church.\nHowever, while dying on the Cross at Calvary, Christ was still the Son of God, and Man, so his concern for Mary's well-being was spiritual and social. (One of the Commandments talks about honoring one's parents.)

I always have bad menstrual cramps in school and one time I had to go home! I hate getting them in school. I can't take pills cause I can't swallow them and the school doesn't allow medication in. I need something that I can do to relieve pain while I am in school, Any ideas?

What has always helped me are those disposable heat packs you can buy in most drug stores.  They are more easily found in the winter, but ask for them anyway - they may be able to order them for you.  You open the plastic pack, shake it, and it warms up nicely and stays warm for 8 hours.  Just tuck it in your underwear (no one can tell its there - they are VERY thin!), and it REALLY HELPS!!!  Wishing you the best honey, I suffered for MANY years with those god-awful cramps!

By normal I mean just like cutting straight lines.  Does cutting words work better?  Why do some people who cut themselves cut words into their arms and stuff?

hmm..... im getting that you dont cut from this, but whatever. Anyways, fist i have to say that some of the above comments are just prejuidice (seriosly, no offense =>) cause cutting is most often not for attention. People cut for different reasons, to relieve stress, distract themselves, keep them from commiting suicide, to make them feel some sort of emotion, etc... Also, when a person cuts an endorphine is realeased from the brain because the pain triggers it. Also, this feeling can become addictive like a drug, but the person becomes used to it and has to go farther and farther to get the same feeling. Now, cutting words doesnt nesscarily 'work' better, it doesnt realease more endorphines or anything. The cutter is using that as a way to show how they are feeling, not nesscarily to anyone though. Its just a way of expressing thier pain, like they might cut fat if they feel they are overweight. It can also be a way of taking out anger, seeing what upsets them in thier skin and stuff. But please understand, the people that do cut dont often do it for attention, and if they do do it for attention then they need just as much help if they are willing to do that. But please be sympathetic if you know anyone that hurts themselves, it can be a cry for help and the last thing they would need would be a person who attacks them, if that makes any sense. I hope some of this makes sense to you, if you have anymore questions emial me or something.


There are tons of scholarships that go unclaimed each year. Many $400, $500 or $1000 scholarships never even get applied for because people think it's chump change and not worth applying for. Well, get a few of those $500 scholarships and it'll really make a dent in your tuition bill.\n\nDo a search on scholarships, search your major, your ethnic heritage, your town, your parents employers, your employer, hobbies, high school, local chamber of commerce/rotary/ lion's club etc. Left-handed? There is a scholarship out there for you! Older woman returning to school? There are scholarships out there for you. Do combined searches on more than one criteria "hispanic women aviation scholarships" etc.\n\nGo to the library and ask the reference librarian for a reference book on scholarships. They usually have more than one. There are all kinds of scholarships out there, you just have to start applying yourself and make it your summer career to send out letters everyday for scholarships. Good luck!


Women.....HOW ?\nWe've been married for 22 years ...she's still a babe but she's also very inhibited and gets embarrassed easily.I've told her there's no need but the more i try to get her to loosen up the more inhibited she becomes.First she used to say she didnt like her boobs and would be more confident when she got them done.....she did...she wasnt.Then it was me having a vascectomy and she'd relax more...i did,she didnt .....what next ? i'm frightened to think about it.

Do something really really romantic. Most women love the romance thing, like going out to dinner at a really nice restaurant, a few glasses of wine, a new dress, sexy underwear and then coming home to rose petals leading the way to the bed room which is surrounded with candles.\n\nAnd then just shower her with compliments as you take off her clothes, making sure to kiss every part that your hands touch.\n\nShe'll be like putty


I mean I can say "you is man" and you wiill you understand that you are a man.  Why do we need "a" and why do we need to use are for I you we they but is for he she it?\n\n*I speak English perfectly but I'm just curious.

grammar is important because it unifies a language under one established set of rules. this is important because if people use these rules and understand them then they can understand what another person is saying without unnecessary confusion. confusion wastes time and it can lead to frustration and hostility. think about an emergency situation in which a person calls 911 speaks to a dispatcher who then has to communicate to several people police paramedics fire fighters and so on; in an emergency time is of the essence, and if the people are spending their time trying to figure out what each other is saying or if they misunderstand it can be disastrous.it just like laws you have to have one set of laws not a bunch of people making up their own this only Leeds to anarchy, but with grammar rules, and laws, the little ones are sometimes broken with little consequence; kind of like eating a grape in the grocery store without paying for it or saying I when you meant me, no big deal.

exercise , dieting pills ,teas whatever you can help me with.

first, I know exactly how you feel!  Trust me, diet pills are only a quick fix IF they work.  Do you realize that the FDA does not have to research or approve of them?  Some teas may curb your appetite or have a diuretic in them.  Again, that is only a quick fix.  The best solution would be a sensible diet and exercise routine.  First, cut all portions.  I would reccomend going to the Mypyramid.com website.  Keep a 24 hour diary of what you eat: this includes drinks condomints, and snacks.  Be sure to write down portions as well.  Then go to the web site and enter in what you ate and drank.  The site will pin point your problem areas and what foods you need to decrease/increase.  Its not about avoiding all fats but certain ones.  Anything processed or fast food is out of the question.  Fresh fruits, veggies, and white meats are a definite, but watch how you prepare them!  Trans fats and saturated fats are pretty much a huge down fall too.  Now Im not saying you can't enjoy a burger once in a while, but try to avoid it more than once a week, if not less.  As far as exercise goes, well there are thousands of options.  YOu can try a gym.  ONe thing I did was get a body fat/BMI and physical done.  Then I was given a trainer and I do cardio workouts and toning workouts.  If you can afford it, i hear Jenny Craig or weight watchers are really good.  I now jog/walk almost everyday.  I do Tae Kwon Do, yoga, and free weights at home.  The gym atmosphere really wasn't for me.  But yoga and TKD have really made an impact.  YOga helps my flexibility and strength, which I need for TKD.  And TKD is a great strength/cardio workout.  Don't fret about the weight issue too much.  The goal is to be HEALTHY and happy.  YOu and I, we're the average, even if you don't feel like it.  Good luck!


I don't think Jenny Granholm has a chance against him. The results for her just aren't there, and Dick appears to have a solid plan to at least do SOMETHING to improve our economy. I mean, it can't get any worse than it is now...

Of course not. Those polls are taken in West Michigan, a good part of which is Republican.\nFortunately, the rest of the state gets to vote as well.\nAnd I don't fault Granholm for the problems, I fault the Republican legislature that's been fighting her every step of the way.


The world cup of football (soccer) is the best sports event because it is only once every four years and it has no crappy events in it like the triple jump, curling or fast walking (like the Olympics does). I am so looking forward to a month of great football (soccer).

There is no argument that the FIFA World Cup is the Greatest Sports Event of all time.  \n\nWhat other event attracts waring nations to a television and willingly put down weapons to support their team? (Keep an eye on any global conflicts going on during the days of June 9th to July 9th)  \n\nName another sport which gathers arguably the best athletes in each nation to play on one stage for thirty days and always to a sold out audience.  \n\nIt draws no economic lines on the pitch (rich or poor nation) and can also make the winning team's captain "King of the World", even if it is just for one day.\n\nIt gives you bragging rights to any disputes for four years and you , as a supporter, never even laced up one boot.\n\nIt's amazing that there is not one nation that plays the game the same way but each adds their own characteristic.  From the Samba of Brazil to the Staunchness of the German Defense we would know the team even if they wore "shirts and skins"\n\nI agree with whoever coined it "The Beautiful Game" (I believe it was Edson - Pele) for it is an event with no equal.

Look An Evolutionist In The Eye And Tell Me What Do You See?\n\nBefore you finish reading this sentence, approximately one hundred billion (100,000,000,000) operations will have been completed inside your eyes. However fantastic it may seem, you possess an example (two, in fact) of the Universe's ultimate technology. No scientist has ever come close to fully grasping it, let alone inventing anything remotely similar.\n\nInsect Eyes\n\nCompared to human eyes, the eyes of insects are considerably different. Their structures come in one of two types, simple or complex.\nAmong all known species, dragonflies have the greatest number of ommatidia. Each eye contains 30,000 of them, which can clearly see objects up to 20 feet away. \nTo recap this phenomenon, a single tiny insect has a total of 56,000 eyes, each of which has a lens, retina, and thousands of nerves connecting it to the central nervous system.

All the more reason I have a most distinct feeling evoluntion couldn't have produced such amazing feats -- only a very creative God could!

Perhaps some of you are unaware of the fact that kindergarten is not what it used to be in many places.  State departments of education are placing inappropriate demands on young children. Many children are not given the opportunity to build with blocks, paint, pretend, experiment with water and sand, or use other concrete materials in play.  They are expected to sit quietly, write and read.  Play is unheard of in many kindergarten classrooms unless it happens after their work is completed.  It is a sad state of affairs in kindergarten unless your child has a teacher who is stubborn enough to go against the grind.  Early Childhood educators at the college level need to contact the state departments to make changes.  Reading and writing can still be taught in a meaningful context as the children play.  Creative thought is important, and think about it.....kindergarten......IT'S KINDERGARTEN, FOLKS!  Get a grip, here.  Let's stop pushing our children!

I agree completely with warren1515.  young children learn through playing.  Some of the academics that are done in kindergarten are appropriate and good but there should always be play time, the kids need it and will get burned out if they don't get it.  I also think that many school systems assume that all children are going to preschool and getting the skills they need to begin kindergarten with this new curriculum and that is just not the case.  Many states are now beginning free state funded preschools to encourage parents to put their kids in preschool.

I recently saw on the news that our government is considering using our National Guard to patrol the US/Mexican border. As a spouse of an ALREADY deployed National Guardsmen I think it's crazy. I thought we had US Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs officers working these areas already.

Where are they going to find the National Guardsmen to do this?  Most Guardsmen are at the maximum time they can be involuntarily called to active duty.\n\nAnother thing to remember is that we are soldiers - not border patrol.

what Should I do about my friend she wants to have sex with me but i don't know how i feel about it help

If you dont want to dont do it. Having sex with someone just cause they want in the end wont be helping you or them. You will lead them on and you yourseld may feel used or even bad for leading them on. If shes really your friend she'll understand you not wanting to have sex. Lovers sometimes come and go but true friends stick around forever, so if this is a true friend keep them aroud and dont turn them into a lover that may go.
