I am English and have been watching NFL for about a year. I understand the rules, positions and offensive tactics (ish), but not defensive tactics.\n\nI understand the purpose of each play, but how do they pick exactly which defensive play to use? Do they just guess that it's gonna be a long passing play so we're gonna blitz and hope for the best? Or is it more pro-active than that, trying to shape the way the offense has to play?

Defenses come out in a predetermined formation. Once they see what the offense lines up against them, they make adjustments to best guard the offense. Each player has specific assignments. For example, the linebackers line up according to formation and then read the guards first movements. It can get very complicated for each specific player, but that is why each player only worries about his specific job. Blitzes are called before the play, and can be called off with an audible or change in the play. The coverage by the defensive backs is usually either a zone coverage or a man-to-man coverage. So basically, the formation is predetermined, adjusted to best match up against the offense, and then each player takes care of his own specific assignment.

What do you have to do or say as a notary public, in a wedding?

State laws regulate who is authorized to legally witness a marriage certificate and you may not have any such authority, if you are asking from a legal viewpoint.\n\nA notary is a witness, he is not a participant. You shouldn't have to say anything other than "May I see some identification, please?" prior to them signing the agreement.\n\nIf you are asking from a social viewpoint, it's considered polite to at least sign the guest book and give the newlyweds a nice card.


drink orange juice,get a lot of sleep,chicken soup might help, don't eat or drink anything cold and try to ask your local doctor for any ideas or prescriptions!


I am particular about the way to get the measurements

* Run a tape measure just under your breasts, all the way around your back and rib cage. The tape measure should rest flat on your skin and lie straight across your back - not so tight that it digs in, but not so loose that it sags down in back.\n    * Make a note of your measurement and add 5 inches. That's your chest size.\n    * To measure cup size, take the tape measure around your body across the fullest part of your breasts.\n    * Write down this number and subtract your chest measurement from it. The difference between the numbers is a way of figuring out your cup size. If the difference between the two numbers is less than 1 inch, your cup size is AA. If it's 1 inch, your cup size is A; 2 inches, you're a B; 3 inches you're a C, and so on. For instance, if your cup measurement was 33 and your chest measurement was 32, that's a 1-inch difference. Your bra size is 32A.\n    * If your chest measurement comes out as an odd number (such as 31 inches or 33 inches), it's usually a good rule to round up to the next number. Most bras have a few sets of adjustable hooks and eyes, so you can adjust the tightness. It's a good idea to round up, rather than round down, because when you buy a new bra that hooks on the first or middle hooks - rather than on the last - you can leave room for growth.


I don't have insomnia, but haven't slept well in the last few days. I'm planning to make up on the weekend (today and tomorrow) so that I don't feel tired when I starting working next week. Can somebody suggest a sedative that is available without prescription in stores (like Sav-On or Rite Aid)? Thanks for any suggestion.

I like excedrine PM, but have also used valerian root which is available on the vitamin aisle at most drug stores.  Both help me fall asleep, stay asleep and I don't wake up with that hung over feeling in the morning.

I seem to recall from somewhere that when performing electric motor calculations, the rule of thumb is to assume a 50% load factor if the true load factor is unknown.

Another rule of thumb is to assume 100% load. \n\nNot knowing what kind of "electric motor calculations" you are going to make it is difficult to say what load factor you should use.


Recently it was announced that compensation to wrongly convicted people would be reduced or in certain circumstances not paid. If someone had served a sentence for a crime they didn't commit and was able to get release from Jail without compensation, would this give them the right to go out and commit the crime for which they were incarcerated.

No. This is not a "get out of jail free" card.  There was reason to believe at one time that the person was guilty. Even if the reason was faulty, it was the best that was offered at the time. \n\nIf another separate crime is committed, another punishment is warranted.\n\nThe best thing to do is to avoid the appearance of guilt,and the company of the guilty, if you are not willing to pay the price of suspicion.


If a = b,\nThen a(square) = ab\nSubtracting b(square) from both sides,\na(square) - b(square) = ab - b(square)\n(a+b) (a-b) = b(a-b)\nCancelling (a-b) from both sides,\n(a+b) = b\nSince a =b, the above equation means that 2b = b!!!\nIf we use no.s, then we get 2 = 1!!!\nHow come???

i want some recepies with stuff u can buy at wal mart IGA or Aldies last time i went fishing i cought 1 carp with worms but i want to make a boile id like to know the 50 50 mix

Making Boilies\nMaking boilies is not as difficult as some anglers would have you believe. Although ready-made or shelf life boilies are extremely effective and do catch a great number of carp, making boilies will improve your catches, save you money and can be fun. Many serious carp anglers would not consider using ready mades and insist on making their own. Their argument being that by using only fresh ingredients, which will be more acceptable to the carp, your catch rates will increase dramatically. The other argument in favour of home made boilies is of course cost. Making a reasonable sized batch of your own boilies, especially if you share the cost with a friend, can save a good deal of expense, and once you have some of the basic tools and flavours in stock, they become increasingly cheaper with each batch. \n\nSo here is a quick guide to get you started in the art of boilie making. With practice you will soon be making baits that those carp just can't resist.\n\nWhat you need\nThe basic ingredients of any boilie are a good base mix, ½ a dozen eggs, flavourings, colourings and maybe sweetener. You will also find the job a lot easier if you have available a bait gun and a rolling table. Although these are not essentials, they will save a lot of time, mess and hassle. Other pieces of equipment you will require are a mixing bowl, a fork, whisk or electric mixer, a syringe, kitchen scales, saucepan, metal sieve and an air drying tray in which to finish off the baits. A clean surface on which to work with the equipment laid out ready will help you to complete the job more easily. \nMix it up\nBefore going into much detail, the rule here is to always mix the dry ingredients together in one container, and the wet ingredients in another. That said, let' sstart with the dry. Place the required amount of base mix into your mixing bowl. For half a dozen eggs, this will probably be 16 oz, but you can always add a little more later if needed. Most mixes will come with mixing instructions from the manufacturer, so always follow these. Add any powdered additives such as sweetener, about ½ a teaspoon of each usually, but again, follow instructions on the container. Mix this well, ensuring that all of the additives are well incorporated into the base mix. Now in a separate bowl, mix the liquid ingredients. First crack open the eggs and place in a large mixing bowl. Now add your liquid flavours. Use a syringe and measure the exact quantity stated. Never overdo it, even if you can't smell it, it is there, and even slightly too much flavour can repel the carp rather than attract them. Now whisk the eggs and flavours very thoroughly or the flavour will not be evenly distributed amongst your finished baits. \nBring it together\nNow add the powdered ingredients to the egg mix, slowly stirring together with a fork as you gradually add more powder. An electric mixer can be used here if you prefer, but do start it off on a slow speed, or your ingredients will end up everywhere. Keep adding the base mix and form a paste which is just sticky to the touch but not too dry or your baits will split. If you find the mix sticking to your hands, a little cooking oil on them will stop it happening. \nReady, load, fire\nNow is the time to load the paste into your bait gun. First roll it into a sausage shape that fits into the gun. Squeeze the bait out of the gun across your rolling table, forming 3 thin sausage shapes. Place the top of the table over the baits and roll it backwards and forwards a few times. Lift it off again and you should have a batch of raw boilies. If the paste sticks to the table, you need to add more powder next time. If you don't have a rolling table and gun, you are going to be there for a while as you hand roll each bait into a ball. \nPrepare to boil\nNow boil your water and have ready a metal sieve. Placing few baits at a time into the sieve, dunk it into the water. About 30 baits at a time is good depending on

I am currently going to a four year university for a bachelor's degree, but I am taking a general education credit class in the community college I started from (since it is less expensive, and will transfer to the university).  As I was looking through my degree plan (at the community college), I only will need a state government class to complete my associates degree in General Studies.  A few of the university classes (an english class, federal government) are being used to fill in GenEd gaps.  Is it possible to retroactively get my associates degree, and continue to study toward the bachelor's at the university at the same time?\n\nThanks in advance.

Yes, I did it twice.\n\nI also did it once while working on a Masters.\n\nMy motto was (and is) D for Diploma. Get all the sheepskin you can for the money you paid. Otherwise, your job will end up in Bangalor, and you won't have anything to show for your work.

I want to know though when looking at different isp they normally have 2 different rates one cheaper that is "normal" then one that costs more money that has "web accelerator ". I already have google's web accelerator would it really make any difference worth the extra money? Thanks.

Just get a good,reliable and inexpensive isp that doesn't require you to install their software to connect. Connection software along with accelerators will slow you down.

Ah, Romeo and Juliet! Basically, "biting one's thumb" was a mortal insult, kind of like flipping someone off (but worse). Sampson is biting his thumb in order to insult the Montagues who are walking past.

Of course, an utterly chaotic street brawl erupts after this.

Seriously, I am very serious. Why are some days more booger-y than others???\n\nMei Mei

This is due to your bodies own response to the allergens, dirt, and dust in the air.  The more that you are exposed to--the more your nose has to "evacuate" through the production of nasal secretions (i.e. boogers).  \n\nThere are little hairs in your  nose called cilia that gather all the dust and dirt etc. (sort of like being swept together like a broom) and these particles are what make up the secretions, along with mucous your body produces to lubricate your nasal passage.  If you have a cold or sinus infection, your body is working overtime to evacuate that from your body as well--hence, major boogers!! :<

Pharmacology math problem:  If a patient is prescribed 1 milligram of medicine per kilogram of weight and he weighs 50 kilgrams, how many milliliters of that medicine does he get?

1 kg = 1,000,000 mg\nBut that doesn't help you for pharmacology.  When you get the mg/kg unit, it's mg med/kg body weight, so 1000000 mg does not equal 1 kg, since you're talking about two different units (medicine vs body weight).\n\nIf a patient is prescribed 1mg/kg, and he weighs 50kg, he should get 50mg of the medicine.  How many mililiters of it?  It depends on how much water you use to dissolve that 50mg of medicine.


He's VERY demanding, a snob. Has questionable business practices. He's constantly belittleing me. I'm gay, he's gay. We work closely and alone. (nothing funny) The pay is pretty good and not far from home. He's very obsessive compulsive. Never apologizes and seldom gives praise. Very quick to find critisism, The stress is killing me and my drinking has gone way up. I am welcome back at my old job for a lot less than I'm making now and its 30 miles away. (3 miles now) I'm sure he has his version of the story. But I have access to a long list of former emplyees who I'm sure would have stories very similar to mine. SO - should I endure for as long as possible, or get out now with some dignity. Neither option is easy.

Your dignity, self esteem and mental health are all way more important than a job.  Everyone needs a job where they are appreciated and respected. \n\nGood luck

how is the g spot identified by a male,meaning i know it's inside the vagina.does it protude a little out to be seen easily?

It's not that hard to find...View http://www.ivillage.co.uk/relationships/sex/orgs/qas/0,,168_158541,00.html for a detailed explanation. The best thing would be, if you have a girlfriend or partner, to ask her to guide you and show you how to find her. If she doesn't know, then she needs to do some self exploration (perhaps you can have her read the link above) and find it.\n\nNow, I'll tell you how I'd find mine. By putting 1-2 fingers about 2" in the vagina, palm facing up, and then bending those fingers up, like doing that "come hither" motion. If you know anything about women's anatomy, you'll know that you'll be stimulating the urethral sponge from the inside of the vagina, which is pretty much located in the equivalent of the back side of where the opening of the urethra is.

a year ago i had a molar pregnancy. im trying to conceive now and im taking fertility pills. i just got my period back on track and i need to know the best way to concieve.

The best way I can advise to do that is by taking your temperature everyday at the exact time. Unless you are sick the temperature will be exactly the same everyday. But then you will see that during any month and a period of approx. 3-5 days your temperature will be slightly higher. This is when you are ovulating. In theory, its when you are most fertile to get pregnant. Usually occurs in the middle of the cycle about 12 days after your period. Good luck.

well, I was hoping someone could give me an example of how stock options work in their company (for their employees).  Preferably an example

In different ways according to the company scheme and how high up the management chain you go.  At bottom you save money in a building society run scheme (employee sharesave or similar name) which you can use to buy shares at a discount at the end of a specified period (3 yrs or 5 yrs usually). You don't have to buy the shares. \nAnother company provides 1 share for every two you buy, then they are held on your behalf for a qualifying period. These are usually worthwhile schemes.  \nStock options usually refers to part of the fat cats remuneration package, and is simply an option to buy company shares (at a heavy discount) at a stated price and date in the future. Very nice if you can get it.

Sunday-Saturday, Sunday being the first day.

The Roman Lunar Calendar\nOur present calendar (called the Gregorian Calendar) is a basically solar calendar that grew from what was originally a Lunar calendar used by the Romans. The original calendar contained 10 months of length 29 or 30 days. This was later modified to a 12 month calendar, but 12 months of average length 29.5 days gives only 354 days in the year, whereas the orbital period of the Earth is 365.242199 days. Thus, at the end of each year this calendar was 11 days out of step with the seasons and at the end of 3 years it was almost a month out of step. This was initially corrected in an arbitrary way by adding 13th months, but this was used for various political purposes and soon threw the calendar into severe confusion.\n\nThe Gregorian calendar is the calendar that is used nearly everywhere in the world. A modification of the Julian calendar, it was first proposed by the Calabrian doctor Aloysius Lilius, and was decreed by Pope Gregory XIII, for whom it was named, on 24 February 1582 via the papal bull Inter gravissimas. Its years are numbered using the anno Domini era, based on the perceived birth date of Jesus Christ.\n\nThe Gregorian Calendar was devised because the mean year in the Julian Calendar was slightly too long, causing the vernal equinox to slowly drift backwards in the calendar year.\n\nWhat Do the Names of the Days of the Week Mean?\n\nAn answer to this question is necessarily closely linked to the language in question. Whereas most languages use the same names for the months (with a few Slavonic languages as notable exceptions), there is great variety in names that various languages use for the days of the week. A few examples will be given here.\n\nExcept for the sabbath, Jews simply number their week days.\n\nA related method is partially used in Portuguese and Russian:\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \nEnglish Portuguese Russian Meaning of Russian name \nMonday segunda-feira ponedelnik After "do-nothing" \nTuesday terça-feira vtornik Second \nWednesday quarta-feira sreda Middle \nThursday quinta-feira chetverg Fourth \nFriday sexta-feira pyatnitsa Fifth \nSaturday sabado subbota Sabbath \nSunday domingo voskresenye Resurrection

I'm a chubby, but not really unattractive 13 yr old girl. I'm 5'5 and so I'm about average height. At school I'm really shy and for that reason I don't play any sports, but its a tiny school (49 ppl in our grade) so people still know me. Guys don't really like me, but they are nice to me. I mean they will be friends with me, but nothing more. Most guys are only kinda friends with me, but don't truly know me. If they just took the time to really get to know me then I know that they'd like me! How can I let my real personality shine and just be myself around guys without putting up walls and hiding behind my shyness? How can I get guys I like to like me back? Thanx in advance!!!

This is a tough one, but the best thing you can do is to try not to worry about it.  THAT'S really what guys like.  I know, I know, that seems impossible.  But if you put your focus on other interests, like joining the yearbook staff, or whatever, you'll get to know guys in a setting where you have a common interest.  If they sense you're trying to get them to like you, they automatically don't.  It's one of life's big bummers.  :(  You have to become the amazing woman you can be, focusing on yourself, not on them, and then they flock to you.

a) That means the number has to start with 5\nso you only need to choose the second and third digits.\nThere are 4 choices for the second and 3 choices for the third\n4*3 = 12\nb) The first digit must be 1 or 2\n2 choices for the first 1\n4 choices for the second \n3 choices for the third\n2*4*3 = 24\nEDIT: I read the part b incorrectly. This is the answer if no repetitions are allowed.\nIf repetitions are allowed, then you still have 5 choices for the second and third digits.\n2*5*5 = 50

I have mold growing on my toilet seat. It is now starting to travel down the toilet. I don’t really mind but my mother-in-law who lives with us says it is scratching her butt every time she goes. So to avoid a fight I am gonna clean it.. I tried scraping it off and it is way to caked on there, it doesn’t budge. I am not going to buy a new toilet cause she is leaveing after the week-end. Anyone have any fast solutions?

Try cleaning it with bleach.. If that doesn't work, just buy a new seat at your local home center.


Well I am in my final year of school, which means I graduate in October. But its really become an issue this year recently when it comes to focusing I can't seem to understand anything especially in geography or concerntrate at school. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've always had trouble concentrating, but the worst time was spring of my freshman year in college. I was overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, terrified of not doing well, and my mind and emotions just shut down.\n\nI don't know if that's what's happening to you, but it's a possibility.\n\nAnother long-shot possibility is that you have undiagnosed attention deficit disorder which you've managed to compensate for until now (that was my case)--either the workload's gotten harder, the topics are more difficult or other emotional issues are adding to the load. Thus your ability to compensate is being compromised.\n\nI'd suggest talking to your parents, school counselor, a teacher or other adult you REALLY trust. Just make sure it's someone who will listen and hear your concerns and try to help you problem solve and get to the root of your issues...because the possibilities I've mentioned may have nothing to do with your situation.


I have emailed various research groups enquiring if they have vacancies..but dint get a positive reply from any of them yet...any suggestions?

If you're pursuing a PhD, you should know to research where you are trying to get in, call or write, not email, a request for an application, and try a personal visit if the facility is close enough.  I know that for regular jobs, if you just email in asking about it, they tend to ignore your request if you aren't dogged enough to followup.

So....I asked a day or two ago about how I could go about kissing a guy I liked. Since I'm rethinkng that now and guessing that might be a bolder approach than I'd like, I'm curious as to some cute ways I could let him know I like him. \n\nFor all the people that didn't see my previous question, I already flirt and talk with him, we're friends and I'm sure (as sure as I can be without asking) that he likes me as well.

Keep flirting, let your friends tip him off, talk to him more often, ask him to help you do something, call him and see if he calls you back.  Just be yourself and let the relationship develop if it is supposed to.


he was one of the emperors and he had the golden touch.

Midas (Μιδας, often referred to as King Midas) was a character in Greek mythology, who is mostly recognized for his ability to turn anything he touched into gold.\nHe was king of Pessinus, a city in Phrygia in Asia Minor, who as a child was adopted by Gordias and Cybele. He was known for being a hedonist, and an excellent rose gardener, and according to the myth, he had one son, Lityerses; but in some variations of the myth he had a daughter, Zoe, instead of a son.\n\nBackground\nHistorically, it is known that Midas was king of Phrygia in the late 8th century BC. Phrygia had many other kings who bore the name "Midas". He may be identical with Mita king of the Mushki known from a list of allies of Sargon of Assyria, dated to 709 BC.\n\nAccording to legend, he was the son of Gordius, a poor countryman, who was taken by the people and made king, in obedience to the command of the oracle. The Oracle said, according to the myth, that their future king should come in a wagon. While the people were deliberating, Gordius with his wife and son came driving in his wagon into the public square.\n\nOther versions of the myth portray Midas as a peasant who performed a good deed and became king, where greed then swept him over.\n\n[edit]\nThe Myth\nOnce, Dionysus, the god of wine, found his old schoolmaster and foster father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and had wandered away drunk, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas (alternatively, he passed out in Midas' rose garden). Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with politeness, while Silenus entertained Midas and his friends with stories and songs. On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back to Dionysus. Dionysus offered Midas his choice of whatever reward he wanted. Midas asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Dionysus consented, though was sorry that he had not made a better choice. Midas rejoiced in his new power, which he hastened to put to the test. He touched and turned to gold an oak twig and a stone. Overjoyed, as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a feast on the table. Then he found that his bread, meat and wine turned to gold and became inedible. In a version told by Nathaniel Hawthorne, he found that when he touched his daughter, she turned into a statue as well. This made him realize the bad choice he'd made.\n\nUpset, Midas strove to divest himself of his power (the "Midas Touch"); he hated the gift he had coveted. He prayed to Dionysus, begging to be delivered from starvation. Dionysus heard and consented; he told Midas to wash in the river Pactolus. He did so, and when he touched the waters, the power passed into the river, and the river sands became changed into gold. This explained why the river Pactolus was so rich in gold.\nMidas, hating wealth and splendor, moved to the country, and became a worshipper of Pan, the god of the fields. Once Pan had the audacity to compare his music with that of Apollo, and to challenge Apollo, the god of the lyre, to a trial of skill. Tmolus, the mountain-god, was chosen as umpire. Pan blew on his pipes, and with his rustic melody gave great satisfaction to himself and his faithful follower, Midas, who happened to be present. Then Apollo struck the strings of his lyre. Tmolus at once awarded the victory to Apollo, and all but Midas agreed with the judgment. He dissented, and questioned the justice of the award. Apollo would not suffer such a depraved pair of ears any longer, and caused them to become the ears of a donkey.\n\nKing Midas was mortified at this mishap. He attempted to hide his misfortune with an ample turban or headdress. But his hairdresser of course knew the secret. He was told not to mention it. He could not keep the secret; so he went out into the meadow, dug a hole in the ground, whispered the story into it, and covered the hole up. A thick bed of


I heard that Toyota bought out Ford recently. Like within the last 2 weeks, but that it was just a stock type thing and nothing would change in the public eye.

Agreed. Ford needs all the help they can get. I haven't heard anything about that, however. Seems like it would be pretty big news in the US if it were true. I remember when Daimler merged with Chrysler it made national news.

Any Redlegs out there? Anyone have a 13 MOS? Any reenactors out there like to load balls in an old napoleon? Or fire grapeshot? I used to be part of an 8 inch unit years ago. Nothing beats the noise and smell!

My husband is a 13B.  He doesn't get to shoot much anymore these days, but enjoys being a red leg through and through.  I love being an artillery spouse.  When he was deployed to Iraq I got a tattoo of a heart with cross cannon in the front and his name. It totally blew him away. All of his buddies in his unit thought that was the coolest thing. Can you get more red leg than that? When we go to our St Barbara's balls, we can't wait for the Artillery Punch, that is always the absolute best part of the evening.

Now this isnt a, "whos better" question.  This is a, who would you rather have on your team?  Obviously Kobes the best player RIGHT NOW.  But if you were starting a team from scratch, and could have either Kobe or LeBron.  Who do you take, and why????

Kobe is better. Lebron is great though. I would take Kobe because you wouldn't need too many more pieces to compete for a championship. Kobe isn't a ball hog people are brain dead. Jordan averaged 37 one season and 35 another. Kobe averaged 35. No player ball hog or not could score that much wuthout superior basketball skill. People forget to score that much you actually have to get open shots, and score all the time despite being double teamed. That's why Michael Jordan, Barkley, and Pippen have all said Kobe is the best in the leauge right now to say otherwise is ridiculous!


if Ebay is not working - you may be pricing it too high. You could try sending an email to a bunch of existing adult providers soliciting bids, or put an ad in online classifieds specifically targeting adult sites - plus general industry websites that focus on domain sales.\n\nDomain sales are a edgy business now, because if you have a name somebody else can claim, they may just take it from you using the icann arbitration process, and you'll lose everything except the amount you actually paid for registration. The best method is to try ebay again, with a lower asking price.


This guy was supposedly born with scars in the palms of his hands, his feat, and his side (to represent Christs crusifiction).  He also supposedly, bleeds from these areas every 12 hours, and then he crys (id cry to if i was bleeding).  This guy says that he had a vision from the Virgin Mary, and she told him, that he was born this way to show the world the pain Christ went through.  \n\n1.)Would God really do this to a man to show this to the world?\n2.)Is it really real? or not?  (why is it not real if it is)\n3.)Do you believe it?

These phenomenom are called the Stigmata.  I have only ever seen those of Catholic faith claim to experience Stigmata.\n\nMany times they can be discounted.\n\nPersonally, I don't believe it to be of God.  It may be real, but not for spiritual reasons.  Because when these things happen people tend to flock around these people or places where "miracles" supposedly happen.  I think when that happens they are losing their focus on God and putting it on those who are "inflicted".\n\nI mean when you think about it, who does it happen to?  Those who already believe.  Who comes to see it?  Usually those who already believe.  Why would God need to reveal himself to believers in that way?  Why wouldn't those experiences or miracles be saved to prove to those who are not believers????\n\nReal or not, I have no conviction that it is of God.  I could be wrong.  But nothing within my being says it is.

The Bible says that "For the wages of sin is death". Everybody has sinned. 1# If you have looked at someone w/ lust, you have commited adultery w/ them. 2# If you hate someone or dislike them, you have murdered them. (God said to love your enemies) 3# If you are jealous of someone or something, that is a sin. 4# God said to have a clean tongue, so when you cuss or something, your sinning. and the same mouth you worship God w/ your cusssing so that makes God sad. 5# DO NOT take the name of my Lord in vain. the "OMG" phrase i can't stand thats why i use: "OMG(osh)" and thats only half of the ten commandments. So that leads you to Hell. But if you accept God's gift of Salvation, you can get into Heaven, its that simple! wow-- i just answered my own question!

Yes, I know I am a sinner but I have accepted Jesus Christ as my savior and his blood covers every sin I have or ever will commit.

I've always liked cars, i want to become a test driver is there like a school you go to get a degree in that? how does that work? thank you?

That's a good question, and it's gonna take some hard work. I think you need a three-pronged approach: \n\n\nHead for a college with a good mechanical engineering program, preferably one that includes coursework in automotive design and manufacturing. \n\nWork on your driving skills — take karting classes at local racetracks, read books about driving technique, and practice safely and legally. \n\nStart working on cars. Learn through your hands and eyes the way cars are built. Experiment as much as you can with different suspension parts and settings, and wheel and tire combinations to see how even small changes in camber, caster and other adjustments can dramatically affect the way a car feels to the driver. (As always, I recommend that you do everything safely, legally and only with products designed for your vehicle.) Try adding weight to the car — barbells in the trunk or backseat — and go for a ride. Remove these items and drive the same course again. See if you can train yourself to feel the difference.\nOverall, these activities should help you understand automotive design, construction and feel. Add experience and passion to this mix, and you'll definitely set yourself on the right course. Good luck!


I already tried Meralco, Tesda, they don't have training or seminar for HVAC.

First of all, you need more time to become an HVAC Technician.\nThere are no 1 or 2 day courses. If you mean seminars, then there may be technical schools that offer them. However, seminars will not make you a technician. Seminars, mostly, touch on certain portions of a course, not everything you need to know or would want to know. Meaning they may be offered  to beginners or advanced.\n\nYou may try the local yellow pages under HVAC training or Air Condtioning Training or Technical Schools.

I have asked several questions on here with a multitude of responses. The last one i asked raised a most interesting point though. I asked if god was real?\n\nMy point is, if he gave us free will to make the choice to follow him or not, why do christians feel it is their duty to convert those of us who do not belive, surely that is impinging our free will!!

You have freewill in your actions, but not your beliefs. God also expects you to override the logic-center in your brain and actually believe stupid silly unfounded claims about a virgin having babies, and an invisible man in the sky who set up his son to be murdered to get you off the hook.\n\nIt all sounds like some sick mob conspiracy to me.


Who would that eliminate -\n\n[  ] Wefare recipients\n\n[  ] Convicted felons\n\n[  ] Teachers and school system administrators\n\n[  ] labor union members\n\n[  ] Mindless, brain fried, drug addicts\n\n[  ] The other 2 democrats not represented by the above list\n\nHey, you know what I just noticed? ALL these people hate being held accountable for their actions.

All of the above. And all of California (for obvious reasons), Massachusetts and Rhode Island (based on their penchant for electing and reelecting Kennedys.)\n\nAh, f*ck it. That would pretty much eliminate all the blue states.


It is mistakenly imagined by some that belief in a Supreme Being as the Creator and Controller of the universe is a mere emotional aspiration, a superstition of ancient times, irrational and illogical, and exploded by modern science. It is believed that scientists (physicists, biologists and others) have erected some theory which both refutes and replaces the traditional belief in God. Such ideas have only a very superficial grounding, and are the result of ignorance or an indifference to both the fundamentals of religious faith and the scope of the physical sciences. It is a significant fact in the history of world thought that very few people have ever made it their business to refute the existence of God. The views of the universe which are considered to be anti-religious are almost all agnostic, not atheistic, that is to say, they attempt to ignore the existence of God instead of denying it. This is true of certain views of modern science as well as of the ancient non-religious theories. The universe in which we live comprises an evident system of causes and effects, of phenomena and their results, and it is possible to discuss them indefinitely and construct theories about them, giving a superficial appearance of completeness. This is done, however, only at the expense of ignoring fundamentals or claiming that they cannot be known. If one were to search for a convincing statement based on firm principles that the existence of a Supreme Being is impossible, one would not be able to find it. \nThe reason for this state of affairs is that belief in God is at once instinctive, rational, evidential and intuitional, and it is only by deliberately neglecting to consider it that the non-religious attitude is maintained. It is instinctive in that man has an innate feeling of his own inadequacy and helplessness, which accompanies him from the cradle to the grave, a feeling accompanied by the complementary desire to seek refuge and support with a being who controls all those forces before which he feels himself inadequate. We put this feeling forward as instinctive, although it will immediately be perceived that it is also evidential. The weakness of man before all the uncountable influences over which he has no control is a fact so obvious as to require no discussion. \n\nWhat is less well grasped by some who have claims to intelligence is that belief in God is fully supported by reason and logic, the principles on which all human intelligence stands. For instance, it is a basic requirement of reason that an effect cannot exist without a cause. However hard we press our mental faculties, we cannot conceive rationally of a causeless effect, and if we wish to postulate one we can only do so by temporarily putting our reason on the shelf. Reason leads us to the conclusion that just as the elements which compose the universe are effects of certain causes, the universe itself must be the effect of a cause, a cause which is itself mightier than and outside the universe. Non-religious thinkers have to ignore the origin of the universe and postulate something existing in the beginning without any known cause. This postulate is essentially non-rational and therefore unscientific, but it is a necessity for those thinkers who have unconsciously or deliberately decided not to consider fundamentals. Of these there are even some who openly proclaim their refusal to discuss or admit any metaphysical concept. This kind of attitude, however, can only be upheld by abandoning reason. Reason itself guides us inexorably to the conclusion that there is an ultimate cause, the Cause of causes, beyond this universe of time, space and change; in fact, a Supreme Being. \n\nAnother of the basic demands of reason is that diversity cannot exist without a fundamental unity. Whenever the human mind is confronted with diversity, it immediately sets to work to synthesise it into unities, then to synthesise these unities into higher unities and so on until it can go


when i run various programs my fan sounds like it is going to take off,but the cpu usage in task manager is only low,is it time for a new cpu fan or can i change anything in >power options in control panel to slow it down    any ideas folks!

If you have a cpu fan that automatically speeds up/slows down depending on the temperature of the processor, then you may want to adjust the threshold point in the bios. It could be that you are right on the high temperature/high speed threshold and any small increase in system load will cause the fan to race for a few minutes.\n\nI would go into your Bios and check "system health" and see what the CPU tempersture is. My CPUs are generally around (or below) 50 degrees Centigrade. If there is a "silent utility" or "fan RPM control" in the bios, then try adjusting the values a tiny bit. You may find that it would be better for the fan to be running slightly faster when the temperature is low, so that the cpu doesn't reach the critical high speed threshold.

I dont think love is involved in this case. I believe there is a mutual attraction between the two of you. Before you decide to get involved or go any further with this guy, I suggest you confirm if he has a girlfriend or not. You dont want to get yourself involved if he does. That is trouble you dont need.


Today is polling day in the United Kingdom and I was wondering wether the Queen(or any member of the royal family for that matter) votes in elections. I know American presidential candidates vote.

Although the law relating to elections does not specifically prohibit the Sovereign from voting it is considered unconstitutional for the Sovereign and his or her heir to do so. \n\nAs Head of State, The Queen must remain politically neutral, since her Government will be formed from whichever party can command a majority in the House of Commons.


I just got (2 months ago) a new Novara Aspen and it came with the standard disk brakes. At first they worked perfect but now they are slipping, I tightened them and they still slip. How can I fix this?

disc brakes are weird, some manufactures install them cuz' they look nice and high end! But the brakes themselves are not, good discs brakes are expensive, if your's are the cheap ones, you'll get all kinds of problems, from sqeking to easilly gettinf dirty and most of the times you can't clean them enough to get them back to new, you have to replace the little brake pads, so either upgrade to better disc brakes or go back to a good caliper brake system...heck! they're even less heavy!!!

In my previous question, it was clear that no one provided enough tangeable positive impacts of Christianity to outweigh the negative impacts (Inquisition, crusades, slavery, the KKK, blockage of life-saving scientific advancements, etc).  Even religious people admitted that religion is used to do terrible things.  I understand that certain religious people who were compassionate in the first place do positive things, but religion is not mandatory for this to occur.  Therefore in the cost/benefit analysis, we must eliminate the scourge of religion from the human race.  Once religion is gone, people will not be able to use it as a shield to carry out these terrible human atrocities.  In the name of compassion we must rise up and bring this nightmare to an end!

Hardly ... it is not religion that is to blame ... but sick individuals that cause the problems. Anyone can use any excuse they want to do bad things, but that doesn't make them a legitamate representative of the religion, philosophy, social movement ... etc, etc, etc.


If I move into an apartment and I end up being put together with noisy roommates, could I always make the request to move to a quieter apartment unit?  Is this common with most aparments?

No, MOST apartments don't put you together with roommates at all!  Ever.  They only take you if you've already got your roommates decided before you come in, and then you sign the lease together and are responsible for each other's bills and everything else.  And you can't move out, or you'd be responsible for the lease.\n\nI'm assuming, from your question, that your apartment complex has some type of arrangement where they take individuals and match them up with roommates.  If that is true, then it is not a typical apartment rental situation.  You'd need to discuss it with them, and read your lease carefully to find out what your rights are.  If it isn't in writing, you can assume you don't have any right to switch.  This type of rental is sometimes common near college campuses, but is absolutely not the way apartments are normally run.  So you need to be careful to understand your rules.

I mean everytime I open the newspaper their is always another priest who molested little boys specifically.

A celibate life is more likely to be chosen by those who are innately pedophiles. They know that they will never be able to have pedophile relationships out in the open so they choose a life devoid of sex. Then they realize that the urges are too strong for them.\n\nThere was a South Park episode where a bunch of priests got together to discuss the problem of pedophilia in the church. As far as they could see the main problem was that the kids were reporting it too much.\n\n\nBaradore: The Catholic church is not the largest church in the world. They have 1.1 billion. The Muslim faith has 1.3 billion adherants.

Is the use of proper English dead? It appears that very few people are educated in the use of the English language.

It drives me nuts.  The use of proper grammar shows intellect, thoughtfulness and the clear-headed ability to communicate effectively.  It also shows that someone is not lazy with the language.

ok mah friend came to mah house last summa and i have a big tree swing and she was swingin in it and was goin too fast and hit her back really hard on the tree. that night, she couldnt breath very well and its two years later and she still cant breath very well she is too scared to tell ne1 but me im scared for her what do u think is wrong? ok and is there anything she could do lyke an at home treatment thinga cuz she went ot the doc and he said she just had a really stron hearbeat and said nottin was wron but she still has trouble breathin she thought it was her athsma but she is always short of breath and will she die?????

She easily could have broken her back or a rib. It could have punctured her lung. Yes, she needs to go to the doc again! NOW! She can die from this. Her difficulty breathing has nothing to do with her being short of breath all the time. She needs to tell the doc that. And if she gets the run-around, go to another doc and another and another until she finds one that listens to her. \n\nBut if she came last summa and it is 2 years now, I don't understand the timing. All I know is that it CAN make her die.


Okay, I have no experience in many useful things, I have a Diploma of Arts which is great to have but doesn't make me attractive to employers... If I get a job interview I'm either too nervous, too "myself", or come off too uptight and distracted because I'm trying not to be either of the two former.\n\nThe thing is, I don't want any of the jobs I apply for, I just need the money. Hence, when they ask "why do you want this job?" I don't know what to say.\n\nIt's hard to get work doing what I love - theatre - and it's even harder to find paying jobs in that area. So until I get a decent acting job, I have to rely on Centrelink for money, who in turn want me applying for at least 10 jobs a fortnight. That is hard to do because there's just not enough jobs to apply for! And around and around it goes...\n\nSo, I'll end my rant now, and hand the reigns over to you, whoever is reading this.


I love pastries. I always have a slice of bread for breakfast, a muffin for lunch, a small apple pie as snack, and a normal dinner. I prefer to have cookies and pastries than vegetables, meat, fruits. But I count the calories too, I don't eat like a pig. I'm not fat, in fact I'm skinny. The problem is I don't eat like anyone else, only pastries, cookies, and pastries. Is there something wrong with me? I'm afraid there is, because I've been eating like this for 3 months. Thanks

You are used to taking in sugar and carbs for energy, the only problem is the energy you get from sugar doesn't last so you have to keep eating them through out the day.  If you keep eating like this you could end up with diabetes, carbs are the leading cause now because of the sugar and glucose they produce.\n\nIf you can, and I know it's hard cause I went through this with a few people, try to cut back and eat more protein.  Protein fuels the body longer than carbs do and no risk of diabetes!


i love the show sex and the city do anybody else like it

It's like the best show ever. All the shows today are half copies of it. In Grey's anatomy, Gry's voice over, so sex and the city, the one with Heather Graham, so sex and the city, Desperate housewives, more like sex in suburbia. I loved that they were all best friends even if they were so different and they always helpes each other My favorite episode is the one when carrie makes the book dedicatory to charlotte " the eternal romantic"


some states require a referendum - what is VA's process?

It has to pass a majority of the state House and Senate in two consecutive sessions and then a referendum


buna seara toata lumea!!!!nu prea stiu ce sa scriu dar vreau sa vad daca ghiceste cineva in ce limba este scris acest paragraf!!!! Mihai Traistariu e cel mai tare!!!!!

Buna seara,nu a fost nevoie sa GHICESC,pentru simplul motiv ca stiu.Este limba romana.In ceea ce-l priveste pe Mihai Traistariu,bineinteles ca a fost cea mai reusita aparitie intr-un concurs de MUZICA.Din pacate ceea ce se intampla de ani buni la Eurovision este cu totul altceva decat muzica.Hai sa ramanem optimisti si sa ne bucuram pentru locul 4,care nu este chiar la indemana oricui.


or you could just put your favorite tv show


I got a new computer at work, and I need to know if I'm being watched. There are hundereds of start up processes and so on. How would I ensure that I am not being keylogged, or watched in any way?

Try safe mode.\nElse, end useless background processes.\nYou may also check for keyboard tracer programs if any made installed on your machine.\nTry visiting playful sites, one day you would automatically get your answer.\nWhile you work, keep an eye on the harddisk LED, if it's ON continiously even if you are not using it, ask someone putting it like "Why is this machine getting slower nowdays?". But, that doesn't ensure the machine is bugged.\nAs you said several startup programs run on your logon, it maybe there activity. SERVERS NEVER SNOOZE.


Bible is perennial best seller in the world  since invention of Gutenberg printing method. No other religionous "sacred" book can compete. People have given their lives to protect it from evil power-holders in history. It shows us the way of personal salvation to eternal life.

what do u do when someone say tell me u love me why do us dudes be scared  to say it back cause i had a lot of trouble

are u realy in love or do u just think so


I got sick when i was 4years old.It was so serious that i got paralysed and i could not walk.My father said he didn't want me.so he divorced my mother.Life was very difficult.\nFor 25years i never heard from my father.Then i met the man of my dreams and he proposed me for marriage.We married and moved to Germany.Then one day i got aletter from the Emmbassy.This man claimed i was his daughter and wanted that i get deportet back home.Though this was not impossible because i have permit to live there.It was the most annoying moment in my life.I had forgotten what he did to me before but now it came very fresh, the pain and anger.Now i just don`t know how to cut this past.It´s hunting me like a nightmare in my life.I just look at myself though im a grown up but i don`t know how to deal with it.It has affected my personality because i have problem when it comes to socialization.I don't talk because i have problem to trust people. I'm a very disturbed person in my Life and i need help!!!!!!.

You need to resolve this conflict, don't hang on to the unfortunate events of past. Your experience in life makes you shy away from people.Look ahead and concentrate on the positive aspects of your life. You have had love and marriage and this is what will eventually help you heal. You need to develop some confidence and learn to love yourself. Don't distrust everyone, not all people are bad. Make friends and make efforts to socialize with people in a friendly manner. You will be surprised how people begin to like you. That will help you raise your self-esteem.\nLife is short, live it in the best possible manner, all you have to do is to make efforts towards a positive living.\nGod bless.


no right answer, i just would like to know opinions.

If I had extra cash and time, I would go buy him/her a sandwich (if they were a nice homeless person- the crazy ones scare me).  \n\nBut, with that said, most of the time, I tend to ignore them (as much as I hate to do so).


The company still does business as usual but now has a different stock ticker symbol. Does my (small) amount of stock have ANY value?

Well, your stock is not worthless, its worth $3 per share right now (and thats up from just $2 per share a few days ago), you can simply open an account and sell it if you want.\n\nNo telling what the stock will do from here.  They filled a Chapter 11 bankruptcy (reorganization), not Chapter 7 (liquidation), meaning they are trying to cut costs, sell whatever they can, and emerge from the bankruptcy.  When (if) they emerge they will try to give the stockholders as much value/ownbership of the new company as they can, but no telling what they will be able to give you (if anything).  \n\nThey may say we had to give 90% ownership to other people to get enough money to reopen, or they may be able to get money to reopen with less (or more) of the company given away, again no way to tell (or they may never get the money to reopen and they will eventually end up liquidating the company and then you'll almost certainly get nothing)\n\nSo, you can just sell what you have for 3$ per share (as of today), or you may want to say what the heck lets roll the dice and see what happens, and hold on to the stock (realizing down the road you could get alot more or alot less than that 3$ per share, again very hard to say).\n\nGood luck with it.\n\nBy the way, here is the link to your stocks current sell price.\n\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=DCNAQ.PK


Got engaged behind my back and planned to dump me... I got to it first.


if you kill ants with your fingers they make your fingers smell like nailpolish...

And many nail polishes use acetone as a solvent.  Acetone (aka dimethyl ketone, essentially a propane (3 carbon chain) with a double bonded oxygen on the middle carbon instead of two hydrogens), has some similar properties to formic acid (one carbon with a double bonded oxygen, one hydrogen and an -OH group). Namely that electronegative oxygen hangin' out there (electronegative means it grips electrons in bonds tightly).   That double bonded oxygen tickles some of the same receptors in your schnoz's olfactory cells, regardless of what elese it is attached to. \n\nTry a side by side sniffing of both and see if there is a vague difference.  The formic acid should also have a sour tang on top of the nail polish smell.  That would be that OH group.  When it sits on the same carbon as a double bonded oxygen, that oxygen hogs a lot of the carbon's electrons, making the carbon hog some of the electrons from the OH oxygen, making THAT oxygen hog the hydrogen's electron that much more, freeing up that hydrogen to go all H+ and wander off in the water as an H3O+ sometimes, aka an acid.  All organic acids have that carboxyl group .\n\nWiki has some diagrams of this stuff.\n\nAcetone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone\nCarboxyl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxyl\nFormic Acid: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formic_acid

chic i like (and by now she must know im interested in her) invited me to go out to casino then clubbing with her and her friends and maybe her boyfriend (she never mentioned him)\n\nnow i talk to this chic, but i dont know her super well, we flirt every friday for 3 hour class and say hi everytime we see each other with a quick chat\n\nim not deffinate that her boyfriend woulda been there\nbut now we are planning on going and doing it this weekend\n\nIf not for her boyfriend i woulda asked her out ages ago, and am quite confident she woulda said yes\n\nwhat is she doing? is she interested and wants to see what im like outta uni, with her friends around??

Brickjacks, listen to yourself. You sound as if you're hoping for the impossible; holding onto dear life just because you are not sure how does she feels about you, whether or not she wants to be with you and if she's just toying around with your feelings. Have you already asked her what she thinks of you? Have you told her how you feel about her?\n\nI really can't tell you what she's trying to do or how you should handle this situation and neither can anyone out there who answers your question because quite frankly, we don't know her. She might be a social butterfly or maybe she's a saint after all.\n\nMy opinion, you should have already confronted her by now. The more you stall your feelings for her the more confused you'll get from her reactions and advances.\n\nTake this opportunity to get to know her better. Since you're going out with her, you'll get to see what she's like. Don't stress yourself with impossible questions (i.e. Does she wants to see what kind of person I am before she decides to dump her boyfriend and be with me?)\n\nYou're not some "thing" that could be analyzed and be taken for granted. You're not some low grade ketchup/sauce that needs to be compared with another to determine which of the two taste good. You're a human, you have feelings and you know yourself better.\n\nShow her who you really are TODAY/NOW and if she shows the slightest indication of her being the malicious girl everyone (well, almost everyone) in Y! Answers been telling you, leave her. Just be her friend. She's not worth your aggravation.


Please humor me. I don't stand a chance with the one I have a crush on:(

My second boyfriend was actually a Michael!\nI was 17 and he was 24 and it lasted for about 4 months.\nIt was a big mistake from the get go, hehehe.\nI am very outspoken and eh... well, not easily overlooked, and he was this really really sweet guy, a little nerdy, a little scared of the world, not too social... i guess we thought that with us being so different, it would work out fantastically. It didn't. I'm ashamed to say that I walzed all over the guy and all he could do was just watch it happen.\nPoor guy. I hope he found someone better since then.


The British are not as gung ho as the Americans : they are very good at getting others to fight their battles.  So far they've kept out of the worst of it in Iraq, but now they find themselves in the hottest spot in Afghanistan - Kelmand, I think it's called.  Stand by for fireworks!  The Brits were beaten a century and more by the Pushtans, despite Ghurka and Indian assistance.  Now Tommy Atkins is on his own and he is NOT GOING TO LIKE IT!

What a load of old nonsense. The British Army is one of the smallest in the world and they consistently perform magnificently.\n\nYou are correct, we are not gung ho but that doesnt have much to do with being very very good.\n\nThe province you refer to is Helmand not Kelmand, and it is very dangerous but our guys will be up to the job don't you worry.\n\nAs for being beaten 100 years ago by the Afghans I don't really see how that is relevant as I don't belive that we are going to send any 100 year old soldiers over there.\n\nAnd by the way, when the Taleban revolted in that prison in Mazar Al Sarif and took the CIA guys hostage it was 6 British SBS special forces soldiers who led the force which defeated over 600 of them.\n\nWe kicked ass in the Falklands, Malaya, Borneo, Oman, Kosovo, Gulf War one (where most of our casualties came as a result of friendly fire from the U.S air force), Sierra Leone etc etc and with the exception of the gulf wars we did it alone and outgunned.


I don't think being gay is contagious in any way, but I was hanging out with some gay friends... and though I didn't have feelings for them, think I like girls more than guys... I am scared of men, due to being raped and a victim of incest. I used to be super promiscuious, but I never felt anything. I thought it was because I was numbing out but maybe it was because i just don't have feelings for guys. Any insight?

How to tell if you're gay: \n1. If you are over 30 and you have a washboard stomach, you are gay. It means you haven't sucked back enough beer with the boys and rather you've been sucking-off the boys and have spent the rest of your free time doing sit-ups, aerobics, and doing the Oprah diet. \n\n\n\n2. If you have a cat, you are a Flaaaayming gay. A cat is like a dog, but gay: it grooms itself constantly but never scratches itself, has a delicate touch except when it uses its nails, and whines to be fed. And just think about how you call a dog..."Killer, come here! I said get your butt over here!" Now think about how you call a cat... "Bun-bun, come to daddy, snookums!" Jeeezus, you're fit to be framed, you're so gay. \n\n\n\n3. If you suck on lolipops, Ring-Pops, baby-pacifiers, or any such nonsense, rest assured, you are a Gaylord. A straight man only sucks bar-b-q ribs, crab-claws, raw oysters, craw-fish guts, pickled pigs feet, or titties. Anything else and you are in training to suck El Dicko and undeniably gay. \n\n\n\n4. If you refuse to take a dump in a public bathroom or piss in a parking lot, you're in a deep homosexual relationship. A man's world is his bathroom, he defecates and urinates where he pleases.\n\n\n5. If you drink decaf coffee with skim milk, you like a high hard one in the poop-chute. Coffee is to be had strong, black (or with thick, wholesome milk) and full-aroma. A vagina-eating man will never be heard ordering a "Decaf Cafe Latte with Skim" and he will never, ever know what artificial sweetner tastes like. If you've had Nutrasweet in your mouth, you've had a dick there too. \n\n\n\n6. If you know more than six names of colors or four different types of dessert, you might as well be handing out free passes to your bung. A real man doesn't have memory space in his brain to remember all of that crap as well as all the names of all the players in the Major league, NFL, NBA, college ball, PGA, and Nascar. If you can pick out chartreusse or you know what a "fresier" is you're gay. And if you can name ANY type of textile other than denim, you are faggadocious! \n\n\n\n7. If you drive with both hands on the wheel, forget it...you hungry for meat-popsicle. A man only puts both hands on the wheel to honk at a slow driver or to cut the dude off. The rest of the time he needs that hand to change the radio station, eat his hamburger, hold his beer, finger the bi-atch in the passenger seat (whoever she happens to be), or, if he's Latino, talk on his cell-phone. \n\n\n\n8. If you enjoy romantic comedies or French films, mon-frere, vous sonnez le Gay, oui? The only time it is acceptable to watch one of those is with a woman who knows how to reward her man. Watching any of the above films by yourself or with another man is likely to result in SHC (spontaneous homosexual combustion), which is what happens to fags when they flame out too quickly.

should all sex offenders register, or just repeats and pedophiles?

The original intent of the Registries were for Sexually Violent Predators. Not the Romeo/Juliets, not the children who are exploring as children will sometimes do. There are states that have children on their internet registries as young as 11. There are states that will convict two 16 year olds of sexual assault against each other if they are caught having sex. That makes them both offender and victim. But it does not matter. If they are 16 and the age of consent is 17, then they are not old enough to consent. I wonder, how many of our esteemed politicians had teen consensual sex many years ago?\n\nRehabilitated former sex offenders are the least likely of all criminals to recidivate, with the exceptoin of murderers. Your child has a higher chance of being molested by someone known to the child and the parent. \n\nDo your research. Learn. That is what I have done. These registries are wrong, they are causing vigilante acts and one day, the rehabilitated offender is going to have a family member murdered by a vigilante. Perhaps if it is his/her child something will then be done about the registries. After all, the Government likes to make you think it is all for the children. It is actually all for the votes.


Please note, this question is open to anyone, secularist, christan, muslim, buddhist, hindu, sikh, ect.

Depends on the person. A closeminded person -willfully- ignores evidence that are contrary to personal beliefs, while an openminded person will integrate them into their belief system, granted that the evidence is justified. However people have a natural tendency to resist new ideas and evidence.

I suggest you make sure they are not bf/gf.  You stated she likes?  and then stated her bf.  If she just liked him, then you did nothing wrong. As that is past tense.  If it is her bf, then you did something wrong.  So enjoy life and I bet yourfriend is going to last longer than the guy you kissed...


I have been so worried about You, and Why Shouldn't I from the way You have detailed Your Life.  I have been busting My Head Trying to Reach Out to You, and Find Out.  Why won't You answer.

my husband puts me down in front of the children...always has,and i know he has mental problems but would never admit them or go to therapist.He used to physically abuse me,never the children.If he is mad at something that happened somewhere like work,he takes it out on me,noone else.I am like his whipping post only its mostly verbal..i dont know where he gets the energy to cuss and belittle me for hrs upon hrs.....I know he is very insecure,but you would think he would be afraid of losing me,as i have left him twice.I know he loves me,but its like he only has me to take all his problems out,i dont know how i have let this happen all these yrs.I want to leave him,but i know i will always still love him,and am afraid he would do something crazy,like suidide or something,although hes never said anything about it.He hd a 1st cuz whop killed himself.what do i do,going crazy in the south,but am from the north

This is not a good situation.  You need to take a step back and take a look at what your kids need.  It doesn't sound like they are growing up in a healthy atmosphere.  If they are exposed to this in any way it will cause harm over time and affect their own relationships as adults.  If you have made efforts to communicate with your husband and he refuses to work with you, you need to make a hard decision for yourself and your children.  You need to talk to a counselor yourself to sort everything out.\n\nIf you choose to leave your husband it is okay.  Do not be manipulated by threats of suicide.  He needs to get help.  It souldn't be the reason to stay in a relationship that is damaging to yourself and your children.


I am doing a report for my global history class and have to do a report on technogical advances that have made impacts on the world, good or bad. any suggestions would help, thanks.

1) The Telephone \nThe telephone is an instrument that converts voice and sound signals into electrical impulses for transmission by wire to a different location, where another telephone receives the electrical impulses and turns them back into recognizable sounds. In 1875, Alexander Graham Bell built the first telephone that transmitted electrically the human voice.\n2) The History of Computers\nThere are many major milestones in the history of computers, starting with 1936, when Konrad Zuse built the first freely programmable computer.\n3) Television \nIn 1884, Paul Nipkow sent images over wires using a rotating metal disk technology with 18 lines of resolution. Television then evolved along two paths, mechanical based on Nipkow's rotating disks, and electronic based on the cathode ray tube. American Charles Jenkins and Scotsman John Baird followed the mechanical model while Philo Farnsworth, working independently in San Francisco, and Russian émigré Vladimir Zworkin, working for Westinghouse and later RCA, advanced the electronic model.\n4) The Automobile\nIn 1769, the very first self-propelled road vehicle was invented by French mechanic, Nicolas Joseph Cugnot. However, it was a steam-powered model. In 1885, Karl Benz designed and built the world's first practical automobile to be powered by an internal-combustion engine. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler took the internal combustion engine a step further and patented what is generally recognized as the prototype of the modern gas engine and later built the world's first four-wheeled motor vehicle.\n5) The Cotton Gin \nEli Whitney patented the cotton gin on March 14, 1794. The cotton gin is a machine that separates seeds, hulls and other unwanted materials from cotton after it has been picked.\n6) The Camera\nIn 1814, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce created the first photographic image with a camera obscura, however, the image required eight hours of light exposure and later faded. Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre is considered the inventor of the first practical process of photography in 1837.\n7) The Steam Engine\nThomas Savery was an English military engineer and inventor who in 1698, patented the first crude steam engine. Thomas Newcomen invented the atmospheric steam engine in 1712. James Watt improved Newcomen's design and invented what is considered the first modern steam engine in 1765.\n8) The Sewing Machine\nThe first functional sewing machine was invented by the French tailor, Barthelemy Thimonnier, in 1830. In 1834, Walter Hunt built America's first (somewhat) successful sewing machine. Elias Howe patented the first lockstitch sewing machine in 1846. Isaac Singer invented the up-and-down motion mechanism. In 1857, James Gibbs patented the first chain-stitch single-thread sewing machine. Helen Augusta Blanchard patented the first zig-zag stitch machine in 1873.\n9) The Light Bulb\nContrary to popular belief, Thomas Alva Edison didn't "invent" the light bulb, but rather he improved upon a 50-year-old idea. In 1809, Humphry Davy, an English chemist, invented the first electric light. In 1878, Sir Joseph Wilson Swan, an English physicist, was the first person to invent a practical and longer-lasting electic lightbulb (13.5 hours) with a carbon fiber filament. In 1879, Thomas Alva Edison invented a carbon filament that burned for forty hours.\n10) Penicillin \nPenicillin was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Andrew Moyer patented the first method of industrial production of penicillin in 1948.


I dont know if you're talking about naughty movies or not, but I just saw a new movie last night called TransAmerica.  It was a very good movie and recieved several awards.

This is a wrongful termination issue and I desperately need an attorney. I know I have a good case but I don't have the money for a retainer.

Also, this is about an injury at work, but not for Worker's Compensation attorney. Only Employment law.

Call the local bar association in that county.  They should be able to hook you up w/ someone who will take the case on a contingency basis.


How can I set all my files so that other people can't share them when I'm using a wreless connection. Also, we have 2 computers at my home one is mine I don't want my brother to access my files and I also dont want his viruses and spyware transferring to me. How can I prevent this?

Am assuming your using XP \n\n1. Install a firewall like ZoneAlarm Wireless. This protects you from inbound and outbound access, not just your brother. :D\n\n2. Get SafeXP from theorica.net and turn-off your sharing and other unsafe features of XP.  This way you can access him, but he can't access you. Sweet! :D SafeXP is, well... safe and free. :D no strings attached.


alledged steroid use, arrogance , barry is not the only player with junk in his closet, and of course not the only arrogant ball player.

He is the only one so close to being the best player ever, not only through talent now but more and more through individual achievements. So it is not because he is arogant at all, it is because is black and really really good, I have notice that when black people are about the reach a really high level they get harassed like crazy, some may say if they stay clean, they won't get into problems, but the truth is famous people regardless of race are often disgrundled people so it is hard for them to do only nice things, however we hear more about th bad by blacks of course ...


BUT, all day today, she has been calling and calling.  She left 3 notes on my door, while I was gone, asking me about where I have been, and why I haven't returned her phone calls.  I was at "Home Depot" and "Lowe's", and I wasn't able to return her phone calls because I wasn't at home.  She called my home phone, not my cell phone.  When I called her, she started yelling at me.  She wanted to know who I was with, and what her name was!  A little "PSYCHO" for me. I was pretty disappointed because I thought she had potential.\n\n* Do you think it was wrong to tell her that she was "PSYCHO", and to leave my son and I the hell alone?

Oh my heck.....what a psycho!  I'm glad you found this out about her now instead of down the road later on!  Don't waste your time.\n\nIf I had a child I wouldn't trust someone like that around them.......you never know they could snap like that with your child.

I've played about 25 years using blades and anytime people see the set, they often advise me to use cavity. I used Tylormade before in the old days, including ICW 5 and ICW 11, Ping, Titleist 981, but had switched to Mizuno MP29, and T-Zoid True. Now, I use Mizuno MP 33 mainly, sometime Titleist 690 MB, and Nike Blade. Still have the MP 29 final edition from 1 iron to sand. Tiger Woods first set. Any one interest in collect them?

don't care what other people suggest as long as u like them~ enjoy golf! i switch from titleist 981 to titleist 680 and its great... the ball stricking feeling is great! if something goes wrong inthe swing, its very noticable~ improving my game... my best was a 72... but that was during my peak time.... haven't been playing for months due to work.... i'll be happy if i get below 90 next time i play~


My microsoft word wont let me type or open any saved files. It says that is is lock. I dont knoew how it got locked but I nned help. Do anyone know how to unlock it?

Did you have MS Office as a trial version? The trial period may have expired.\n\nYou can open those files using WordPad, Notepad or Openoffice. I would recommend OpenOffice, as I am a big follower of Free Open source applications.

Quit eating junk food. Start eating healthy. If that doesn't work...... Then start working out. Or eat healthy and work out...... That'd probley work good.


ok i interracial date i am attracted to white guys. the majorty of the ones i have dated be afraid to let me meet their parents. they want to take this step but they chicken out. either there is something wrong with me or they dont want their parents to know they date black chicks. any advice for future references on how to talk to the guy to get him to feel more comfortable at this

There's nothing you can do. I mean you can't stop being black so it's up to them to stop being punks.
