I'm 23 and like this girl in my class, who I've actually talked to (for the last 2 or so months) and had a few conversations with... but now that we're out on spring break for 10 days I want to e-mail her.. I want to keep it casual\nAny suggestions for writing something about school/help with class are nice but just not applicable in this situation (the class is ridiculously easy).. although maybe I should ask her about her research for the paper.\n\nI was thinking\n"hey I hope you don't mind me emailing you through blackboard.. (something about we don't have enough time to talk in class? or i was thinking about her?). what are you doin for spring break?"

wrong approach: "hope you don't mind"  , if you don't think your worthy, why should she?   Instead, tell her you saw something that you wanted to share or made you think of her, compliment her on some attibute that you find attractive ( her laugh, her brain, her quirky sense of humor, etc....)  Leave an opening, or ask a question. to encourage a reply. But this is your first written interaction, take it slow, let her warm up to the idea of corresponding, leave her your IM address.  And don't freak out if she doesnt reply, its spring break, why should she check her email account?


because your computer is warning you, for security purposes that a download was initiated.. you do not have to except, but in many cases for you to continue with what you WANT to do.. it is necessary. but like i said, for security reasons, it warns you.. just in case you did not WANT to download anything, and some site was just trying to force some virus into your system. 99% of the time, the active x control is safe.


Have you ever spent time in a Federal Prison? If so, for what? And for how long?

Every day for 8 hours a day I am in one; and since I cannot retire until I am 57 I have a 24 year sentence :)


he said he wanted to get settle on base first just got there monday how long should i wait for him to get settle? i want to get a job and apartment first instead of waiting on him to do it. he is a drill sargent.

I would give him two months, this gives you time to make some phone calls and connections and will give both of you plenty of time to decide if this is truly what you want.


Such as "Ring Around The Rosy", "Rockabye Baby" etc...  I think "Ring Aroung The Rosy" has something to do with the plague, but not sure.  I don't care about the cute ones, I'm curious about the wierd ones.

"Ring Around The Rosy" is not about the Black Plague at all. It is simply a nursery rhyme of indefinite origin and no specific meaning, and someone, long after the fact, concocted an inventive "explanation" for its creation.\n\nAlthough folklorists have been collecting and setting down in print bits of oral tradition such as nursery rhymes and fairy tales for hundreds of years, the earliest print appearance of "Ring Around the Rosie" did not occur until the publication of Kate Greenaway's Mother Goose or The Old Nursery Rhymes in 1881. For the "plague" explanation of "Ring Around the Rosie" to be true, we have to believe that children were reciting this nursery rhyme continuously for over five centuries, yet not one person in that five hundred year span found it popular enough to merit writing it down.\n\nThe words and lyrics to the "Rock a bye baby" rhyme are reputed to reflect the observations of a young pilgrim boy in America who had seen Native Indian mothers suspend a birch bark cradle from the branches of a tree. Thus enabling the wind to rock the cradle and the child to sleep!  This rhyme is also known as "Hush a bye baby" which is the correct title. The confusion regarding these lyrics occurred due to the popularity of the old Al Jolson classic song "Rock a bye my baby with a Dixie melody!"

The people that try to convince you that eating fried foods is bad for you and will lead to an early death? The really wacky ones try to tell you eating meat isn't good. Do you despise these self-righteous freaks or what? You know what I mean, the vegans, the scientists, the vegetarians who all think that living longer means living well too?\n\nMy grandpa smoked, drank and ate whatever he wanted, and he's in his mid-90's, living well. I don't really buy what the food nuts say.

I think everybody's body is different. Some people who drink, smoke and never exercise live to be 100. Other people who are very health conscious drop dead at 45 from a pulmonary embolism. It certainly can't hurt to eat healthy though. Most people's body's can't handle the abuse of trans fats and tobacco for very long before they start having health problems. People like your grandfather are few and far between.\n\nIn answer to your question about whether or not I hate the self-righeous bastards who preach about eating healthy, yes I do. I can barely get the food in my mouth before my fiance is telling me how bad it is for me. I do try to live a healthy lifestyle, but every once in a while you want to eat a ton of fried food or ice cream or whatever it is you're craving. It's not gonna kill you. It's not something you can do every day, but people are just way too uptight about it.


HOW MANY IRAQI AMPUTEES?\n\nDID BUSH DO MORE DAMAGE TO THOSE FOLKS THAN SADDAM EVER DID?  I HAVE READ THAT OVER 100,000 IRAQIS HAVE DIED, CONTRARY TO BUSH'S LIES ABOUT lT BEING 30,000.\n\nREPUBLICANS SEEM TO THINK THAT IRAQIS LOVE US, BUT THEY DON'T.  THEY JUST DON'T GET IT, UNLESS IT'S SPOONFED TO THEM BY RUSH LIMBAUGH (OXYCONTIN ADDICT).

The Iraqi women all shaved their heads in protest of George Bush's occupation of Iraq. they said that they were not being represented properly in the world. So in other words the American Fox news media and Pat Robertson's 700 Club are just another pack of lies from Conservatives. It's nothing new, since if their mouths are moving, they are lying. Deport the Conservatives to Iraq to fight their own wars. Free America from the Tyrants.


I got a Pentium 4 Toshiba laptop, 266 mb ram on it, pretty new. But I get problems when right cliking or loading some programs, It takes way too much time to load. Right cliking might take some ages to show up. Any suggestions, it running win XP

get another 256 mb of ram, you can fasten the right click speed, go to run and type in regedit, there, you have to set the time from 400 to anything arround 25 to 75, try it, but do carefully, as it may corroupt your os,


According to the internet pages there is several thousand with the same problem,but no one seems to be able to answer this question.

i know what the problem is.... you got a PANDA, pandas don't mate very often... a tiger is better, but if you're really into bears i suggest a polar bear instead of the panda... they are not as cute but they mate more...


i searched the internet but all i get is pictures and useless information about rivers in america

Topography is the word you want. Combine Topography with river and throw it into a search engine and things like this Wikipedia article should fall out.  Happy hunting.


I think that Bill Clinton is a more effective power for change retired than George Bush is as President.  Should we not repeal the Presidential term limits and allow great presidents to serve more than two terms?

It was great to hear a reasonable explanation for affairs to date. Isn't funny that president Clinton is informed and willing to talk about the affairs of the World. I watched Senator McCain this morning on Meet The Press, and he said George Bush was Stupid about the Relationship with President Putin from Russia. I about fell on the floor, he said he didn't agree or vote for Bush's policies all through Bush's terms. I know that that isn't true, but that's what was said.


HOW CAN I EARN A MILLION DOLLARS WITHOUT GOING TO BORING SCHOOLS OR DOING WORK

Ex. i need it to be like 5 feet 7 inches with both feet and inches because when i divide the number by 12 im not sure how to do that. So i need my answer to be # feet # inches

Franklin, looking at your list of questions it looks like you're cheating yourself out of an education.  You should be asking how to figure it out for yourself... if you get the answer for every inches to foot problem on your homework, you'll never learn to do it yourself.


if a girl is kinda controlling(what i eat, wear, and how i act). she's really sweat and everything but she's kinda stuck onto her parents. should i stay with her or leave her?keep in mind we been going out for 3 years.

Well. this is the thing.  the reason she is controlling IS because of her parents.  I would suggest talking to her about it...and being serious about the break up option with her.  \n\nJust because you've been with her for 3 yrs.....doesn't mean a thing, except maybe you've hung on too long. \n\nBe honest with her and straighforward....it's gonna hurt you to say it, believe it or not.  But you have to follow thru.  If she has no intentions on trying to change, or she blows you off....then you need to break it off.  \n\nAnd if you do break it off....it's been my experience girls like her will find any way possible to make you feel guilty, or confuse you into thinking it's your fault.  So make sure if you go that route, you are not mean,. Be caring, but stand very strong.  Break it off clean, and with no blood.  No long drawn out speeches.  And tell her in her face, not on an email or on the phone...and in a semi public place....not your house or hers.  \n\nIf she wants to be friends, then make sure you define those lines right then and there.  No BS.  One HUGE note - Have your stuff together, because ladies usually know when they are fixing to be broken up with, and she definitely will know what you're trying to do.  When she knows the end is near, she will try just about anything.  Be ready for it, even if it requires a little time to get your thoughts together.  I cannot emphasize this enough......\n\nIf she claims to want to change...give her a very short waiting period.....and watch her closely for a couple weeks to make sure there is no laziness or dropoff in her attempt to change.  And don't do anything she might use as ammunition later down the line.  If you've been a good guy, continue to be that guy.\n\nIf she doesn't change....then go back to what I said about the break-up.\n\nThere are lots of young ladies who might want a guy like you.  So it wouldn't be the end of the world.  Either way, make sure you do the right thing for you.  The worst thing in the world in this situation is to hang on too long.


how can i control or block the messages which is coming into my spum in my gmail account.\nplz tell me if u know to block or control the coming messages.

Try to Google for your email address - if you find it in a google search, its tickets for that email address, I'm afraid.\n\nAs the person said above, ditch that email and start again, if you can. I would recommend (in addition to your gmail account), using www.sneakemail.com for disposable email addresses that you can set up for those horrible websites that require you to register with your email - you really don't want to be giving away your private email to these people.\n\nInstead, with sneakemail, you set up a sneakemail address, and they will forward any emails to that address to the address you specify (ie, your google account). You can label the addresses, so you can easily see where it came from. \n\nFor example, you register with BookShopazon.com (just an arb example). You label the sneakemail address with "BookShopazon". Then, six months later if you start getting spam with that label, you know BookShopazon has either sold your details or they were hacked. No problem. You can set this email address to soft bouncing (most spam won't get through) or hard bouncing, or even delete that address and generate a new address to use with BookShopazon.com.\n\nI use this quite successfully to control my spam. I hate spam a lot. Spam spam spam spam ... sorry, got carried away there (Monty Python fan).


Day by day my heart aches know I can’t run into your arms once more.\nMy heart aches knowing I can’t see you smile just one more time.\nMy heart aches knowing I can't hear your gentle voice.\nKnowing you are not here to comfort me when I am frightened.\nOh how my heart aches because your not here.\nMy soul weeps knowing I can’t hear your heart beat just one more time. \nI miss the way you comfort me when I was frightened.\nThe way you laughed at all my jokes.\nThe way your heart sounded after a long day of work.\nThe way you smelled after you put on your old spice cologne. \nI miss the way you manage to put a smile on my face.\n The way you made everybody laugh when we were sad.\nI think what I miss the most of all is how much you cared.\nYou always took the time to say “I love you”,\nEven when you were running late for work or school.\nOh how much you cared. \nYou can make me happy with just one smile.\nYour smiles meant the world to me.\nSome people don’t understand what a good thing that they have until they lost it,\nBut I understand.\nI was able to hear your heart beat until that tragic day in December 98.\nWhen you took your own life away.\nNow I may weep and cry, but I know you’re in a better place.\nI have loved you and lost you.\nBut your memories remain in my heart and mind forever.\nYour soul and body may be gone but your kindness and memories \nYou made with everybody will remain forever.\nYou will be remberd by all forever more.\nMy dear beloved uncle.\nSteven Edwin Dellahaut.\nYou will always be loved and remberd by my always and forever more.\nI love you.

Very long and touched. It sounds like u missed your Uncle. I can see that you and ur uncle developed a good relationship. He is with you in spirit and watching u write a poem .. He is with you!


Do woman have two categories? 1 friend material 2 bedroom material

Personally I know w/in 30 seconds of meeting a guy if we'll ever be more than friends.  Usually w/in a week after that we're either seeing eachother or not.  Then it takes me around 3 months to start gettin comfy and our routines of seeing eachother down.  By 6 months I know if this is really something that's gonna last or not....and if I don't feel good about whatever I'll say something.  It either works out or we go our separate ways.  ......I think what you're asking though is does a woman know if just friends or more though right?  ....that's the first 30 seconds.....IF there's even a possibility anyway.


...writing about cutting herself. I have not been able to stop thinking about her, does anyone know what happened?

how did you find out she was suspended?  It seems really funny to me that people can post all kinds of crap here, curse and be profane, but let someone come online here actually wanting help and BOOM!  She gets kicked off.\nI am starting to think that Yahoo Answers is composed of a bunch of hypocrites.


I think a legal eagle is a terrific lawyer.


We all know the celebrities involved in Scientology, but has anyone read up on Scientology?  I did, and god, these people are nuts.  I lost all respect for a lot of people I know.  WOW.  You guys should read up on it.  You will laugh your ass off, too.

L. Ron Hubbard the science fiction writer, was sitting at a bar with Robert A. Heinlein and bet him that he could make millions of dollars by starting a religion, Scientology believes that star trek like characters brain washed all of us and we must be deprogramed by paying a lot of money to become a scientologist. His son L. Ron jr. has publicly denounced his farther, along with his first two wives, and his gay son Quentin was found dead on October 28, 1978 under suspicious circumstances. L.Ron Hubbard married Sara Northrup pregnant with Jack Parsons child, while still married to Margaret "Polly" Grubb with whom he fathered children. L. Ron jr. and Katherine May, Quentin was the child of Mary Sue Whipp. L. Ron Hubbard died of a Vistaril overdose January 24, 1986.


I want to know the meaning, duty and difference of Sheriff, Mayor and Coroner.

There are different branches of government.\n\nThe sherriff deals with the enforcement of laws that have been created by the legislature.  He has no power over creating these laws, simply has the responsibility for making sure they are followed.\n\nThe mayor oversees the day-to-day operations of the local government.  He'll have funds city funds that he can allocate for different purposes.  He neither creates nor enforces the laws that govern the city.\n\nThe coroner has a responsibility that is completely different that these other individuals.  His job duties revolve around deaths.  He may be responsibly for examining someone after they have died and determining the most likely cause of their death.


This is just a general observation that my two balls are not alike and having some difference in size. Is there any logic for that difference or only i have this issue?

Your testicles should be about the same size. One often is lower than the other, which is more a reflection of where it is at in the sperm producing cycle.


well, there are many factors that led to the growth of bacteria..first, the temperature. Temperature affects the growth of bacteria. Like for instance, there are several bacteria that thrive in room temperature, and there are those that thrive in very cold or very hot temperatures. Second, the pH affects the growth of bacteria also. For example, there are micro organisms that thrive in very acidic env't (ex. Candida albicans which causes Candidiasis), also there are those that thrive in alkaline env't.Third, there are special micro organisms that thrive in extreme environment. For instance, there are those that thrive in very saline env't, called extreme halophiles. There are also that thrive in methane- rich env't.\nThere are other factors that lead to the growth of micro organisms but one thing is for sure...micro organisms are everywhere even in the place where no other living things can thrive...


This girl and I have been good friends for a while. We have had an impact on each other's lives. Lately, though she has acted more interested in me particularly than before. She has started to try to get me alone to talk. We talk about each other's dreams and a lot about marriage and dating and such. She has seemingly become more open. She also has started to punch my arm, lean against me, and sit and stand next to me quite a bit. We have a very flirtatious friendship lately, and I cannot understand what the heck is going on. Until lately, I have seen her as a friend, but as she has become more flirtatious thoughts have come into my head of possibly liking her. Is this normal? Did she plant these? And if so, why now??? Thanks for the help in advance!

I think she likes u. Its kool if u like her too thats what happened to me. The guy flirted with me and now i like him. U can confront her if u want and if u dont like her then tell her so but dont just walk up to her and say that.\nEase it into one of ur conversations. GOOD LUCK!!!


if so i would like to know how much weight have you lost and how long.

My friend has been eating nothing but raw vegetables for about a year now.  He swears that he feels great!  He certainly looks great, has good skin tone and all.  But he has to eat ALOT of veggies and he eats ALL Day long!  He runs marathons and has lots of energy.  I think he lost about 20 pounds from his belly and it is still off.


My best friend got hooked on Vicodin for pain due to an accident. He says that now when he tries to go without them for a day or so, he gets "jittery". Is there anything natural to avoid having to go back to the doctor? Something that will help him sleep, feel normal and stay off?

I would suggest Oolong Tea with GABA.  Since he is quitting Vicodin, his neurotransmitter, Dopamine is messed up, and so depending upon how much and for how long he took Vicodin, he will experience different levels of withdrawal: nausea, the runs, cold sweats, depression, anxiety, etc.  This is because without Vicodin, his body's natural Dopamine receptors have stopped producing Dopamine. Until the body's natural Dopamine receptors are able to produce the Dopamine again, the next best thing to take (that is legal) is Oolong Tea with GABA.  GABA is another one of the body's neurotransmitters and it has a very similar effect on the brain, particularly the feeling of calmness.  Take that for the depression and anxiety, and Pepto for the nausea and upset stomach.  He should be better in no time: good luck!\n\nIf you cannot find Oolong Tea with GABA, go to a Chinese market and look for the tea aisle, otherwise, if you are in Southern California, you need to go to Ten Ren's: the place that serves Milk Tea w/Boba. If not, try another Asian Boba (Tapioca) Milk Tea shop, they should have it.


due to my addiction to chat . Im talking about porno type of chat

it's definately recieving more and more recognition as an addiction. its on the level with addiction to porn and other sex industry (strip clubs, phone sex, etc.) i don't think it's quite like sex addiction (most people with sex addiction are chronic masturbators, relate everything to sex, and it is often stemmed from sexual abuse.)\n\ncybersex is very seductive because it is real, yet it is not physical contact. I've been married 7 years, I'm Christian, and adultery is unthinkable to me, in the traditional sense. but i have given in to cybersex. I don't think it's "okay," but I realize it was an easy pit to fall into. and i have talked to people about some WIERD stuff.\n\nif you feel it is a real problem, like if you feel doing it is wrong, or you are doing it too much, or it is interfering with your life or keeping you from having meaningful, real-life relationships, seek help from a professional counselor, or, if possible, discontinue your internet connection for a while, if that is practical.


equity line of credit. Original good faith 6.625%.  After I paid for the appraisal the loan was then 12.3% then when the final paperwork came to be signed it was a 12.3-18% variable.

1) Do not contact 'motgage guru' since on a purchase there is NO RIGHT of RECESSION; period. You only have a 3 day recession on a refinance of your primary residence. Adding a HELOC to a primary residence is a refinance transaction.\n\n2) It sounds like your getting the shaft... Either cancel if possible or start yelling! Once you sign those docs they are set in stone.\n\n3) On a HELOC the rate is based on the prime rate. When you received your GFE the prime rate may have been lower and then it increased since you got the GFE; currently prime is 7.75%.\n\nWhat it kinda sounds like to me is that your HELOC has an introductory teaser rate for a couple of months at 6.625 or there abouts but with the fully indexed rate at 12.3%. What the 18% is telling you is the maximum interest rate cap on the loan. If you take your 12.3% and subtract out the prime rate you have a margin of 4.55%. What this means is that when ever prime goes up or down, add 4.55 to the current rate and there you are.\n\nIf you want to speak to me in some detail about your deal I maybe able to assit you with a much better product.\n\nKevin\nkruorock@firstratelending.com 866-562-6838 x 106


I was lucky to be born in and to grow up and learn in america and to learn from successful accomplished people..Those who worked and thought an created and flourised.. I went to public schools and was taught at home by parents.I was able to read and think and question anything I wanted. I chose at the age of 12 to doubt the existence of god and had no heroes or idols as I grew up..I developed my own set of beliefs and values and rules of behavior..and it somehow has worked to help me get along with my neighbors, I have a free clean healthy life and only wish everyone else who ever exists to have my opportunies..believe me I am far from wealthy nor am I poor and lost. I am just an average man..yet still I appreciate what I have and how nice it is to be able to think and say and dress and eat and sleep and create without fear...I havent had my mind influenced yet by something other than my own reason...this may seem to sad to some yet seem like a dream of hope for others...

it works for others as well. there are many of us around. welcome


like a man going with a man a woman going with a woman

In my opinion do what makes you happy.If your gay your gay if your bi your bi your sexuality has nothing to do with who you are as a human being,people will either understand or they won't but at least you'll know who your true friends are.If your family can't except you as you are then do they trully love you????


I am considering how much money to contribute to my retirement accounts and part of the decision invovles whether this money can be used to purchase property.  If the money in my 401k, IRA, and Roth IRA is off limits, then it seems that I should contribute less because it will prolong the time before I have saved enough for a down payment on a house.  Does anyone have any advice on this matter?

It's still your money even if it's in a retirement account, and you can pull it out as a loan (but you need to replace it or be penalized) or as a distribution, so yes you can use it for your downpayment.  It's an eligile source of liquid assets, from a lending perspective.\n\nYour retirement accounts are basically savings or investment accounts that give you a (very) slight reduction on your taxable income.  If you're buying a house, it's much more important than knocking a few thousand dollars off of your taxable income, so I wouldn't put it there, I'd just put in in a regular investment account.  Minimizing your tax liability is wise, but it's not necessarily the highest priority all of the time.\n\nYou can also change your IRA contributions amount anytime you want, or make a lump sum contribution prior to the deadline from your other investment or savings accounts in the total amount it would have been if you had contributed it paycheck by paycheck.  So you can have it, if you need it, and still have the option of taking advantage of the tax benefits.

I know that Oriental people (especially Chinese, Japanese, and Korean people) are very proud of their heritage, but it boggles my mind that you all changes you're names to English! Or you're parents name you with an English names even though there are soo many unique and beautiful (way better than English names) Oriental names you could have!\n\nWhat do you think? Are you guys really that proud of your heritage or is all a show? \n\nAlso, many of you will say it's hard for people to pronounce, that doesn't make other ethnic folks change their names. I still have my own cultural name and many people have trouble saying it.\n\nSo doesn't that show you guys actually lack pride in your ethnicity? culture? origin?

I don't have an answer but I'd like to share with you my experience of this.I recently worked at a local building society and a co worker of mine was Chinese.He told me he was called Ben but that it wasn't his real name,He'd changed his name to sound more 'westernized '.out of 'feminine curiosity' I asked him his real name,expecting something UN pronounceable............"LEE", was his reply !!!!!

Why the hell Indian Prime Minister want to spoil the country by bringing more reservation based on caste ? The country is already suffering because of the existing reservation in the system. If there should be any reservation it should be only for economic weeker section...why don't we want quality people to come forward and help country grow & excel ?

The caste system is a severe stumbling block for me accepting India's culture.  I find it offensive, yet it seems that quite a few people in India take it so seriously that it has political currency, so reservations based on caste probably gets votes - particularly if it favors a majority caste over a minority... more votes, even if it is not the best policy in regards of really looking for the best and brightest.\n\nI also looked over theories on the formation of castes and it seems to me that it should be more like... unions?  cliques?  I'm not sure how to put a label on it, but at one point someone probably noticed that certain groups of people with like interests tended to flock together to form social groups.  Now, with advanced educational systems, it is more obvious that someone could have different ideas from their parents and WANT to join a different group based on differing interests - not merely economic... You would still have these groups, but not based on lineage...


I live in California with my dad and he flew my sister and I to New York to visit our mother.We have been having family problems so he thought that he would torture us by leaving us in New York with no way to come back to California and finish the last 2 months of school.He said he doesnt care about how we are going to finish school.Isnt this against the law?

Education is mandatory in the U.S. Not sending a child to school constitutes abuse. Your dad might lose custody of you and your sister.

whats the best way to buy a house with little to no maybe even bad credit and you dont make that much, but will have a friend helping you out with the bills.

Find out exactly what your credit scores are from all three bureaus and exactly what is on them, both good and bad.\n\nIf your score is above 580, you have a good chance of getting approved with no money down.\n\nIf you have at least 3 tradelines (bills showing up on your credit report) that you pay, on time, every month for at least a year, you stand an even better chance.\n\nIf you don't make enough money to qualify on your own, your friend will also have to be on the loan.  The lender will usually use the score of whoever makes the most money.  If your friend has credit issues too, they will need to be taken care of just like yours.\n\nTalk to a mortgage loan officer you trust.  Talk to several.  If you're in Ohio, talk to me, I'd be glad to help.\n\nA good loan officer will tell you what things you need to do to qualify and will guide you through the process.\n\nGood luck,\n\nLeah

Will you rather have pleasure and kill ethics.

No.  However I would gladly do something that's ethical but illegal.


in india there is lot of vote politics which explains that that even after  more than 58 years of independence people have to commit suicides because of poverty and having no access to many facilities.\npoliticians are more concerned with their welfare more than the society's.\nby enumerating false hopes thy gullible public is taken for ride and corrupy so called public servants grind their axe. otherwise how come there is little progress in the same group of neglected people after almost 50 years of indepedence.  they are misusing poor and backward people for petty votes.

this reservation thing is wrong it is ruining our country.\nreseravation if necessary should be allowed at schooling level of education.\n If govt wants to give reservation  then it should give to those who r financially weak.This whole resrvation drama is pure votebank politics and is very dangerous for the future\nof INDIA.\nIn my opinion it is high time to correct our selves and eliminate this reservation system step by step this v can do by applying reservation plans as five year policies and work hard to remove any sort of differences created by politicians or anyone elseby punishing  them in hardest possible ways as per the law.


You are getting sleepy, sleepy, slepy sleepy. Now go to sleep and stop messing around!!! Did you hear what I said? Night night, talk later. Are you sleepy yet?

Ah, if life was only a dream.  \n\nGood night Granny, Sleep tight, don't let those young men bite.  Well, only if you want them too.  :)


what are the israeli palestine people actually fighting for?

They want control of the same piece of land.  Each has a religious tradition and a history which includes land that is occupied by the other.  Complicating things is the scarcity of water and access to trade routes, and the fact that Palestinians resent being moved off their land by the British, who controlled that area, to make room for a Jewish homeland at the end of WWII, and the Jews resent everybody, having been oppressed and without a country for so many years while living in Europe, Russia, the Ottoman empire, and elsewhere.


You are in a room with two doors. One leads to heaven. The other leads to hell. In front of each door is a talking parrot. One always tells the truth. The other always tells a lie. You have no idea which bird is in\nfront of which door. You can ask one of the birds one question to correctly determine the doorway to heaven. What question do you ask and to which bird?

I'll ask "What will the other parrot say if i ask which one is the door to heaven?"..\nAnd i'll take the other door than what i was told........\n\nExplanation - Through this question i will get the wrong door whether its the liar parrot or the truthful parrot.Because:\n1. Truthful parrot will tell the truth, i.e. he knows the liar will point to the hell door if asked about heaven door and so he will point to the hell door as my answer.\n2. The liar parrot will lie,he knows that the truthful parrot will point to the heaven door when asked abou heaven door, but he will lie and point to the hell door as my answer.


i have post nasal drip for four years.\ni have seen many doctors and tried many medicines.\nbut nothing helped.\ndoctors advise me operation.\nshould i opt for operation of my polyps?will it help?

If 4 years of medication & various doctors have not cured you of PND, then it is probably wise to seek surgery.\n\nDepending on your case, a polypectomy is relatively easy with little or no post-op complications (including your recovery from anaesthesia).\n\nIt is best that you go to a trusted ENT surgeon, talk to him/her about the pros and cons of the op, discuss the pre-op requirements as well as the post-op care before you decide on anything. Also, find out the success rate of that particular surgeon, as well as the success rate of the op in curing PND.

where does the carbon in the cell walls, dna, etc come from?  the dirt or the CO2 in the air?

The plants do not 'eat' anything the way animals eat and digest and then defecate.\n All green plants ( with out exception) have unique mechanism of Photosynthesis by means of which they prepare what they want. We, the animals, rob them of the things they have manufactured.In this case Man is more guilty than the other animals as he gives them practically nothing in return.\nThe CARBON in your question is absorbed by them from the surrounding air during photosynthesis. The equation is as follows:-\n6CO2 + 12H2O-> LIGHT&CHLOROPLAST> = C6 H12 O6 + 6H2O + 6O2\nThus carbondioxide gas(6CO2) and water(12H2O) combine together in the presence of sunlight and chloroplst to produce glucose(C6 H12 O6) , water and oxygen gas (6O2). this gas is realeased in the atmosphere!\n The CO2 gas and water is available to mankind easily but can we produce glucose? No way.This reaction will require plenty of energy for our machinary, and the veture will be immpracticable. There in lies the greatness of the Plant Kingdom!\nThe Glucose thus manufactured is then put to innumerable application by thes plants including cell wall formation and DNA synthesis.\n Other mineral requirements are absorbed by them from the soil along with water.\n lastly  CO2 + water in the hands of man = Soda water But\n         CO2 + water in the hands of Plants = Sugar.


If a red plant is next to a pink plant will it eventually become a shade between  pink and red?  If a plant is nest to white plants  or striped ones will it become like its neighbour?  How intelligent are plants?

Plants cannot change color in and of themselves.  What could happen, though, is that one plant could be pollinated by a neighboring plant and it would produce seed that contained some of the characteristics of both plants.


Im not sure if Rollen is comming back soon or towards the middle of the season.

they are going to better then the CUBS and that's all that really matters isn't it


I know that Samurai Champloo is not historically accurate.

The show is supposed to take place in Edo-era Japan, at the onset of the Christian Purges. You’ll often find, though, that Champloo’s version of Japan includes some modern inventions and activities as well. Along with Jin’s modern glasses, the show comes upon instances of graffiti, rapping, baseball, and more. There’s just as much classical Japanese art and music thrown in to balance out these cases, so the end result winds up like the bizarre son of Ruroni Kenshin and Cowboy Bebop.


I can't believe it. The Pistons actually lost twice in a row. Pretty sad if you ask me.

They aren't taking those games seriously anymore. Their main concern is resting their main guys so they're ready for the playoffs so they don't care if they win or lose those games. They're just trying to give their bench more playing time so it's understandable that good teams will lose some of their last games.


I worked in an office with 80 women, all on the same floor, sharing cubicles.  I was always curious about this, but was afraid to ask.

yes. I find it very strange. I work with the same girl everyday and since I got on birth control her cycle is getting closer to mine every month. I wish it didn't work that way b/c its really hard to get along when we are both PMSing at the same time.


what does it mean if its presented by someone, does that mean the presenter just like watched it and was like wow i present this movie or did he have something to do with the making of it or what? please explain this to me as fully as possible. thanks i will choose a best answer.

It cetainly does not mean that QT directed the movie.\n\nRead this story for an understanding........\n\n You may get a chance to see Zhang Yimou's 2002 release, Hero (Ying Xiong), in the States since it’s being presented by Quentin Tarantino whose name flashes first thing on the trailer. First or not, Tarantino has done a justice to Asian cinema not only by showcasing its influences in movies like the Kill Bill Volumes but also by using his established name to bring some deserving Asian films into the light of the western world. "And I am very proud to do that," Tarantino tells Fangoria Magazine. "I had to fight for it with Miramax. I think they lost faith in it and everything. And I thought that Hero was an absolute masterpiece, so I fought with them not to cut it. Not to bring it down, but to keep it the same length as when I saw it. And finally they agreed if I would present it. So I got in touch with Zhang Yimou and he was cool with that. Yeah, he was as happy as a clam. So that's what I am doing—it's pretty much what I did for Iron Monkey." So Miramax is releasing it in the States (at least L.A. and New York), and rumors are flying that it'll be in its full glory, all 120 minutes rather than their edited, 95-minute European release, though we haven't seen the extra scenes yet. \n     Writer, producer, and director Zhang Yimou brings us Hero, a story of the revenge of the nameless warrior (played by Jet Li) of his people. Hero uses flashbacks to show how the nameless warrior defeats three assassins out to murder a warlord he intends to destroy in pre-unified China. The film contains stunning visuals and martial art scenes throughout, comes from the producers of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and is hailed by critics as even better. \n\n\n\n \n     Western audiences may also get a chance (cross our fingers!!) to see Zhang Yimou's follow up to Hero, Shi Mian Mai Fu (aka House of Flying Daggers, aka Flying Daggers at Cannes, aka Lovers in Japan), seeing that its full trailer is now popping up online. Shi Mian Mai Fu is about a soldier and a blind revolutionary who fall in love during their journey. You can check out the trailer here on WMP (the only format so far). You can also check out the Hero trailer at Yahoo! Movies in WMP or QT. \n\n-Jennifer Hall\n\n..........................\n\nTo present is to back a movie for Distribution!


Christianity spread thru the ancient world by the WORD. The first apostles convinced the people that the way of Jesus Christ was the right way to get to heaven. Islam spread by the SWORD conquering and oppresing the people of the ancient world. This is history, no bull. How can Islam be the right path to heaven since its way is paved by violence?. By the way, the Inquisition was the answer of Christianity to the spread of Islam. Remember the Inquisition started in Spain that has been oppresed by Islam for 700 years.

Violence begets violence. This saying has been around for a long time, and it still applies. At times, it even seems that our world continues to grow more violent with each passing generation. Who can save us from this perpetuating cycle of harm? It won’t be the rulers of this world who use violence to attain power and oppress through force. Certainly, the writer of Revelation says, it won’t be those who rule Rome and are found covered with the blood of prophets and saints. No, it is the King of kings who will save us from our violent rage.\nOnly the King who is the victim of the violence of human fear and anger can truly understand the depth of our brokenness. Only the One who hung on the cross for the sake of this violent world can save us. Only the God who is stronger than all the violence of this world, even death itself, can redeem us from the cycle of pain. Violent kingdoms come to violent ends. God’s new reign in the kingdom of the risen Christ comes to our world bearing a new type of rule, the rule of peace.

This is for a school project so it needs to be something easy to do with stuff just found around the house

I dont know if you are talking about a model robot (i.e. one that does not move, function) or a functional moving robot..\n\nI can advice you for the second thing..Google for BEAM robots..they are really simple robots which you can make at home..you just need a few simple components which you can get from any radio shack..\n\nTry that out


what is needed and were should i start it ?

Damn, this is the third question asking the same thing!\nI will paste my answer to the last two below for you as well... I was in the industry, so it is some fairly sound advice.\n I will assume based on your name that you are in fact a male. It is a bit of a trick as a male to get into the industry.\nUnderstand this... Of all of the guys that think they will have no problems preforming on camera, about 70% of them are wrong. To keep it up while you have between 5 and 15 people staring at you, you are starting and stopping, it is cold (I don't know why, but sets are almost always cold), is a challenge.\nIf you really want to break into the industry, find a woman that wants to do so as well, and get her to say that she will only work with you. That is the best way to get directors to try you out. Eventually, if she wants to make it big, she will have to work with others, but if you prove yourself on camera you should then be able to get work without her.\nTo get started, go to www.sexyjobs.com . I have personally booked over 100 shoots for me and/or my fiance through that site.\nOne last thing.. You do NOT need a big penis. As long as you are over 5", your size is irrelevant, unless you are over 10"


I took the health check-up self test in the book '14-Day Health Cleansing' and the 'Do You Have CRC in the book Candida Related Complex.  After reading this information, I knew my body needed some detoxification. Can you help me find a doctor who will do this for me?

I want to know the exact reason for the snails poo being the colour of what it eats. Tell me the scientific reason

Since you said please help, I will try to answer this question. A snail does not have the same kind of digestive tract as a more highly evolved species of animal. Therefore by nature, a snail being a more primative animal will lack certain enzymes which break down its food matter for absorbtion to provide fuel for its other living cells. This means that the animal can only extract some nutrients from its food source resulting in a partial digestion. therefore the feces from a snail may appear similar to the original food source both in texture and in color.


You see it on tv a lot, in war movies and police shows, when they have to communicate orders silently. It looks like a formal language, but not really like ASL.

In todays combat no.  Most of todays combat is fought in an urban environment.  In Iraq currently the majority of patrol are mounted.  We talk through the use of CVC's and the only time we use hand signals is when we are mounted and trying to communicate with a dismounted troop on the ground that has no radio.  When dismounted in Iraq, hand signals aren't necessary because you are usually surrounded by kids.


Puerto Escondido is in the Mexican state of Oaxaca (pronounced woh-hah-kah), el corazon de México (the heart of Mexico). Situated in the extreme southern portion of Mexico, Puerto Escondido is home to a giant submarine canyon that makes it the recipient of macking surf year-round. Because Puerto is at the base of the Sierra Madre mountains, the winds that come out of the mountains every morning are offshore and last until about 11:00 a.m. The climate and terrain is straight out of the movie Romancing The Stone, which was filmed in nearby Puerto Vallarta. In the summer months, daytime temperatures can reach over 90 degrees Fahrenheit; combine that with the 90-plus-percent humidity, and it’s simply blazing.\n\nTo put it plainly: The waves around Puerto Escondido get freakin’ huge. The beach known as Playa Zicatela has several peaks strewn along it. Carmelita’s is a right located at the north end of the beach that features a gut-wrenching tube. Directly in front of Bungalow Zicatela is a nice area with peaks all over the place and plenty of señoritas on the beach watching the action. Down past Mexpipe Surf Shop is the mythical Far Bar, a left that doesn’t break as often as the rest of the area, but when it does, look for a big left tube that breaks boards and bodies with alarming frequency. At the southern end of the beach is La Punta, a rippable left point that is perfect for when the beachbreak gets too much to handle. Do yourself a favor when surfing the beachbreak: don’t paddle from peak to peak. Be patient and wait for waves that don’t close out, the payoff is worth the wait.

Barra is the best place by far in that region. They are holding a WCT event there the rip curl search but wont reveal that the wave is actually barra. Andy irons pat oconnel and the mobster just got back from a surf trip therte and told me it was epic!


I have my fiancee any we were had been together for more than 3years, i remember on first year we were happy and love each other but problem start after 2 year, when she get me bored she doesnt know even to say sorry and in other time she provoke bad words to me when im in need of knowing something from her. She changed  lot even the way she used to love me before. and when it come to a little talk with her she doesnt be attention. The other day she was asking permition from her father that she is going to night club with but she was cheating insteady she was going with another man. Now it comes to a point that she provoke to that she know herself when sheis going to be called Mrs and from who. another words that she provoke which pain in my heart a lot is that during we were being together she cant see the changes. On myside i try to keep mum and now she is asking me what did i think of her? and i answer the same as she take me. Help me could i give her another chance, but im tired.

One can forgive, but they cannot always forget. It seems like it may is time to move on if you have attempted to address the issue to no avail. \nThere is someone better out there that will treat you as you deserve to be treated.

Volunteer Work with no work history?  or a Work history with gaps in employment?

Just because you weren't paid does not mean you have no experience. Volunteer work is work.  \n\nList it if it is relevant, if it won't raise eyebrows,  if you have been there a long time, AND you have concrete skills that you gained from the experience.  \n\nStuffing envelopes or holding banners at rally's might not something you want to list unless you are going for a receptionist / crossing guard type position.  However, if you are going for the position of bookkeeper and you sat on the board of a non-profit and helped with the budget, that could be relevant. If you have been volunteering someplace in a real capacity, list it.

i.e. is Latin for "id est," meaning that is.\n\nIt's *not* used to give an example.  It's used to rephrase something.  An example is e.g., which is exempli gratia in Latin.


People of other religious persuasions have been found to be very modest about their sexual behavious.\nNot so in Western Christian nations.

Most western countries ( Europe and the Americas) are basically Christian oriented.\nChristianity teaches that Jesus died for the sins of Mankind.\nThis belief alone gives license to the believer to sin.\nPornography is promotes by all western countries.\nLook at the  way women who go to church dress, they way they speak and preach in church.\nGays and lesbians demand rights because they believe that they are right.\nThis is all about sexual behavior.\nThis is not the case in other civilizations and religions.\nBut of course , who is to tell the Christian nations that they are wrong.\nEven if it were possible for Jesus to come back and try to reform modern day " Christians" they would seek to crucify him again.\nGod Bless you all.


The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on.

U.S. Grant, what did you expect from a Civil War General/ US President who drank whiskey, smoked cigars (lots of them) and was a fearless horseman. He was a very colorful figure and almost of legendary status. He graduated from West Point, like Patton and other legendary war generals. Most of them having pretty much the same attitude. War is Hell...Fight the Battle, Win the War, get it over with and go home.

How many chances should a person be given to stop doing wrong things to you especially if you are considerate and forgiving to that person and have done everything humanly possible to try to get them to change?  What if the person is your child?

For me. I trust them until they give me reason not to. After they break my trust, they have to earn it. No more free trust until it's earned.


I don't understand why the Geneva Conventions specifically prohibit blinding somebody during a war.  Blinding the enemy is an excellent way to make him stop attacking.  Isn't it better to be blinded than to be gunned down by a machine gun, or blown to bits by a missile?\n\n(This question asked as follow-up to http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Am3ayah97Zv4AlciCmOleUfsy6IX?qid=1006042514548)

IIRC, it's not the Geneva convention (which deals with the treatment of Prisoners Of War, as my precedessor has written, also with protection of non-combat personnel, treating the wounded, and protecting cultural assets, among other things).\n\nIn Hague convention there's a passage that prohibits "weapons that produce unnecessary suffering". This was interpreted in many ways. The most common opinion is that weapons that maim aren't allowed.\n\nIt's perfectly okay with the rules if the enemy is maimed as a side effect of your attempt to kill him on the spot, but weapons that are intended to cripple only are considered a big no-no.\n\nAs for blinding - IIRC, flash-bang grenades are okay, for they cause only temporary blindness. It is the weapons that cause permanent blindness that are opposed (they are, AFAIK, based on laser, used to burn victim's retina).\n\nWhile it's a matter of personal judgement whether it's more humanitarian to kill someone on the spot, or render him crippled for life, my call is that I, personally, would prefer to be dead than blind. Not that I'd be likely to have any choice, anyway...


and how can i get use to it where it doesn't bother me . thank for you answer

I used the Product Main and Tail that's actually used on Horses to provide a sleeker main and tail. Some people can't use the product because it can cause an allergic reaction depending on how sensitive your scalp/skin are. However so far it's the only product I have found that works well and helps the hair grow faster, longer and stronger. Of course this is just my own experience from using the product. You can get it at Wal-Mart. From what I have heard, the one sold in stores like Wal-Mart is slightly different from the same product that's sold at PetCo, Petsmart, or any feed store for horses.\n The suggestion to use a wig is actually a good idea. It's a way for you to get used to the different lengths as your hair grows. Hope this helps some.


Nope.  It is the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) section 212(a)(7)(a)(i) - Documentation requirements.\n\ni.e. people without valid unexpired documents are INADMISSIBLE.  Section 212 of the INA deals with aliens who are inadmissible and some waivers in some cases.  Go to the official US citizenship and Immigration Services web page and you can pull up the full text of the law you are looking for.  Good luck!


Is this diet ok for your health? Does it work well.  Has anyone had success with this diet?

The Low Carb diet is not really good for you.  If you want to loose weight you got to start by having a balanced high water content diet.  That means more vegi and fruit, a lot less refined carb and high fat food.  Your health demand that you have balanced foot intake and moderate exercises.


Occasionally, I feel a slight pain in the chest where my heart is when I breathe in, as if my heart is being squeezed and as if there is a lack of room in my chest cavity and something (my ribs maybe?) is poking on my heart.  Is this normal?

It's probably bad heartburn. I felt like there was a bubble stuck in my heart and I was worried too. Turned out to be heartburn. Zantec 75 or 150 works great.


I just want to find out a football answer about Celtic,s lowest ever home crowd ever , but preferably the 60,s  70,s 80,s or 90,s

Celtic played Motherwell in 1987 and the attendance was 13500. I think that was the lowest ever.\nFor the record Rangers lowest ever recorded home attendance was 6500. This was in the mid 80's.


I mean if you look at the categories along the side, why are we the only ones singled out and coralled over here?  Why isn't there a section for blacks or arabs or Wiccans or spanish speakers or white people?  Anyone else feeling a little weird about that or is it just me?

I DID notice, first time I started ANSWERS, and it bothered me.  Then after thinking about it, I was fine with it.  I don't think the categories are meant to include or exclude anyone, necessarily, but were created based on the volume of GAY/ LESBIAN -related questions and answers.  I mean there are a lot of us.  But where's other major groups???\n\nYes, I do think it's unusual that "we're" the only listed group besides "other."  Maybe that question should be posted and results brought to Yahoo's attention.  Personally, I think it should be a member of a particular ethnic, cultural, or 'whatever' group that should raise the question.\n\nI do thank Yahoo for being politically correct about our name: "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered."


seriously, there's so much chaos all over the world, so much corruption and intolerance....greed. the bible says that's what it'd be like right at the end....what do you think?

it is a very controversial topic...both religious and scientific communities have probably been wondering about this lately alot more than usual.In the scientific area, there are many things currently happening that are strange...especially our weather...everyday we hear about a tropical cyclone, a flood , a drought or whatever, along with these facts come the stories that this has not happened in a hundred years and so on.On the religious side there are all the things like greed and severe poverty.I myself do not have a clue if the world is coming to an end and find it frustrating to think about...The truth is we will never know when the end of the world will come until it comes.


It is required to get the idea which kind of book will help to understand the subject better for him who is very new to the subject.

Economics by Campbell R McConnell\n\nMcConnell-Brue’s Economics 15e is the best-selling textbook and has been teaching students in a clear, unbiased way for 40 years. The 14th edition grew market share because of its clear and careful treatment of principles of economics concepts, its balanced coverage, and its patient explanations. More students have learned their principles of Economics from McConnell-Brue than any other text—12 million of them. The 15th edition is a substantial revision that delivers a tighter, modern, Internet-savvy book.

Do I open an account with ameritrade? How does that work? Is there a monthly fee? (Whats the general fees) Am I charged by trade? What if I only buy two stocks?

Open an Account on www.ameritrade.com\nNext you wire some money into that new account. This will usually take a couple of days. \nYou are charged per trade. A trade is approx. $12. You can buy as many shares as you like. Usually people buy in lots off 100.


i want to pay off all my bills and just have one bill in one

If you are a home owner, you can get a "Home Equity" line of credit through your financial insitute against the equity you have in your home. Maybe they can incorporate your mtg payment and the other into one! Or You can also apply for a credit card that will let you transfer debt and get cash money. Pay off everything and have your one payment!!


Which form of capital punishment in current usage is considered the most humane? Why?

I still think that a firing squad is the most humane.  It's quick, almost instantaneous, and none of the men on the squad knows who shot a real bullet or who shot a blank.  In lethal injection, the condemned convulse (just like in electrocution).  Beheading might be more accurate (the firing squad could all miss) but seems to be more of a show for the public (see French Revolution or Saudia Arabia) as a deterent.  Hanging is even less accurate (see Thrice Hung John of English lore).  I must admit though, I'm against capital punishment because of economic reasons.  The extra costs of court appeals, lethal injections (or electrocutions) upon taxpayers is much more than most people realize.


Looks like a three petal flower with feet at end of petals. Have brooch of black cat with that symbol on body of cat.  Very old.  Stumped as to what it means, if anything.

From the back of my memory, I think that's the symbol of the Isle of Man, in the English Channel.  I honestly don't know how I know that or where I saw it before.\n\nedit: can't believe it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_Of_Man\nAnd it's not the Channel, it's in the Irish Sea.


I had finished my B.Com way back in 1987. May I join this expensive SAP course? I want to know the details before making the payment of the fee. As I am not well versed with any programming skills, I have some doubts about the succesful completion of this course. I request the SAP professionals to clear my doubt as it would be useful for me to take a decision.

Since you might have gained domain knowledge from your work and being a commerce graduate i suggest you to take a course for functional consultant rather than a developer in FI-CO. You got a good prospectus for that in career wise.


I haven't slept in 4 days. I'm dead tired but just can't fall a sleep. I can't just run off to the Doctors. I don't want the advice of a 13 year old brat either. Thanks for any suggestions.

Wow, that's awful.\n\nI haven't had too much trouble with insomnia, but the few times I have, tylenol pm (over the counter) helped me wind down enough to sleep.\n\nAfter four days, I'm sure you've already tried the standards: milk ( contains natural stuff that helps you sleep..doesn't have to be warm - yuk!), a nice glass of wine, warm bath, etc.  \n\nGood luck, man.  Hope you don't get this because you've finally been able to sleep.

I am doing a personal finance research project for school, and need to find out what an IRA is exactly.

Individual Retirement Account.  Now has two forms - traditional and Roth.  Both are money saved for retirement and invested usually in mutual funds.  Traditional IRA contributions are tax-deductible, but the distributions are taxed.  Roth IRA contributions are made after-tax, but the distributions are tax-free.  Both have set rules as to how much can be contributed per year (based on whether you also have a 401k), the age at which distributions can be taken and when they must be taken, and whether money can be withdrawn early without penalty for various reasons.


the angels should win it, but they must find a way to get their youngsters (kotchman, ervin santana) producing and their veterans (erstad, anderson) healthy.  it's a good mix and scioscia always has then playing well come september, but the athletics could give them a run for their money.  the rangers and mariners have some good players, but i'd expect the angels and a's to battle it out, with the angels finishing on top by 3 or 4 games.\n\nwe'll see, won't we?


You call someone with difficulties reading a dyslexic, so what do you call someone who talks to themselfs?

Some people with various mental disorders seem to be talking to themselves as in the case of schizophrenia but these people hear voices so they may actually be talking to the voices.  Also people with multiple personality disorder seem to talk to themselves, but it is actually their alter personalities talking.  Hope this clarifies things.


The Thailand government has taken it on them selves to block certain business and sexual sites.  This include some personal meeting sites.  How can I by pass the blocks?

There are services that allow you to do this, and I can't recall their names right now.

Because I like the the home teams wearing dark and I don't want them to reverse it again. Also, why does the Cowboys and Redskins wear white at home when all the other teams wear color at home? 1 more thing, will NBA teams follow the NHL, where the home teams will wear their color jersey and the road teams wear white?

The Redskins and Cowboys are just following long-time tradition. I'm old enough to remember when most high school and some college football teams wore white at home. The NHL did that to sell jerseys. I'm thinking there will be even more "third" jerseys - like the Hurricanes adding a black one - and a return to the occasional "reverse jersey" night. Then the absolute diehard fans need to spend $500 to be able to match the team.

In Texas criminal law, what does precept return mean after the indictment is filed?

I don't know that you are using that in context correctly.  Here is a definition for you, though...\n\nHope it helps.\n\nIn secular law, a precept is a command in writing; a species of writ or process issuing from a court or other legal authority. It is now chiefly used of an order demanding payment. The Latin form praecipe (i.e. enjoin, command) is used of the note of instructions delivered by a plaintiff or his lawyer to be filed by the officer of the court, giving the names of the plaintiff and defendant.


Sunflower seeds specifically or any oil seeds. what are the considerations and remidies.

High-throughput DNA Isolation Protocol \n\nCTAB Method \n\n1.      Add 80 ul 2-mercaptoethanol to 40 ml CTAB buffer (see recipe below) right before use (0.2%) and mix. \n\n2.      Preheat CTAB DNA isolation buffer to 65°C in a water bath. \n\n3.      Grind freeze-dried leaf tissue (~100mg) in a Mixer Mill for 3-5 min at 30 time/sec with one 3mm steel bead in a 1.1 ml  tube strip from Qiagen\n\n4.      Carefully pour beads out of tubes and add 300 ul CTAB buffer into each tube with a multi-channel pipette (if a plate is used, you can leave beads in until the end of work)\n\n5.      Cap the tube strips and label each strip, caps and rack, incubate the samples in 65 °C water bath for 60-80 min, use shipping tape to secure the rack and lid to prevent caps from openning up while inverting the rack to mix samples.\n\n6.      Mix samples every 15 min by inverting rack 5-10 times to make sure plant tissue mixes well with the buffer. Watch for sample leaking from caps. \n\n7.      Take samples out of water bath, briefly spin sample box in a centrifuge for 1 min at 1500 rpm (balance box weight before spinning), separate caps from tube and put the cap strips on clean paper and arrange them in order so that they can be reused. \n\n8.      Add 300 Chl/IAA (25:1) into each tube with a multi-channel pipette, cap tube with original cap strips, put a plastic board between tube cap and rack lid to make sure every strip cap gets the same pressure from the lid, cover the box with lid, secure the lid with shipping tape. Mix the samples by inverting the box slowly for 15 min (Chloroform can create pressure and cause leaks of chloroform, so the tubes have to be tightly capped).\n\n9.      Centrifuge at 5,700 rpm  for 10 min. \n\n10.  Transfer the aqueous phase using a wide-bore pipette tip (about 200ul) into a labeled clean plate (650 ul plate), add 150 ul of cold isopropanol (-20 °C), securely cover the plate with a plate cover (or cap strips) and mix gently by inverting the plate several times to precipitate DNA. \n\n11.  Recover the DNA by centrifuging at 5,700 rpm (6100g) for 10 min. Discard the supernatant immediately by suddenly inverting the plate and dry it briefly on several layers of paper towels by briefly touching the plate on paper towels two to three times on different positions of towel to remove excess liquid. This step should be very quick (a few seconds). Then turn the plate back upright and air-dry samples to remove excess liquid for ~10 min.\n\n12.  Add 500 ul of 70% Ethanol directly to the pellet, cover the plate, and invert it gently several times to wash  for 5 min. \n\n13.  Centrifuge at 5,700 rpm for 8 min, and quickly discard wash buffer as described previously (check DNA pellet in each well to make sure DNA stayed in the bottoms of wells\n\n14.  Air-dry DNA pellet at room temperature for ~20 mins to remove excess liquid.\n\n15.  Re-suspend the DNA pellet in 200 u1 of ddH2O and leave it at 4°C overnight \n\n16.  DNA concentration will be ~100ng /ul and can be determined using either an agarose gel or a spectrophotometer. \n\n \n\n                                                                            CTAB  DNA Isolation Buffer (500 ml) \n\n \n\n2% (w/v) CTAB (sigma)\n 10.0 g\n \n1.4M NaCI\n 40.91 g\n \n20 mM EDTA\n 20 m1 of 0.5 M EDTA \n \n100 mM Tris. HCI (pH 8.0)\n 50 ml of 1.0 M\n \nAdd ddH2O to make a final volume of 500 ml \n \n\n \n\nSDS Method \n\n1.      1-2 young leaves (~100mg) are placed in a labeled 1.1-ml collection tube or in a plate well, freeze-dried, and ground for 3-5 min at 30x/sec to a fine powder using a Mixer Mill and one 3-4mm steel bead in each well. (To isolate DNA from dry seeds, half to 3 seeds are wrapped with a weighing paper, crushed with pliers, placed in a col1ection tube or   in a deep-well plate ).\n\n2.      Preheat extraction buffer to 65°C in a water bath. (If the tissue samples are stored at -20°C, allow them to warm up to room temperature).\n\n3.      Add 0.2% (v/v) ß-mercap

Why sHould the Universe degrade(burn out)

Homogenous Universe\n\nAll observations scientists have made using the most powerful telescopes show that the universe looks the same in all directions! \n\nThe average density of galaxies is the same and does not change with distance or direction. \n\nThis shows that the universe is  homogenous, and this is called the Cosmological Principle.\n\nHomogeneous (usually pronounced: homo-GEEN-ee-us) means literally, to be the same throughout, no matter where you are in the universe. "If you look at the universe from earth or from a galaxy a million lightyears away, it will look the same." \n\nLOOK at IMAGE: http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/121/unv2pv.png

related to preprint, publishing industry,

The typesetting I know about is obsolete by now.  \n\nAt some point in printing history, it was the old method of literally gathering the metal letters and placing them on a wooden frame to make up the written word. Printing was done by placing a blank piece of paper over the layout of the letters and pressing the paper onto the inked letters(thus the term printing press).  This was improved upon over the decades to the point that a man could type out whatever he needed and the machine set the letters up into a plate. That plate printed out the pages. But a lot of this stuff is quite obsolete now, but still possible if the equipment is at hand.\n\nWith the use of computer systems, everyone now can have their own "printing press".


I dated a black guy that I met through my best friend. I thought it was just going to be a summer fling, and it turned out to be SO much more. B/C I thought it wasnt going to last-I didnt tell my parents. They know who he is and actaully told me he wasnt allowed to call my house anymore a few years prior because they "didnt like how he acted" at a party. We never stopped talking though all the way until summer going into my senior year when we started dating. I broke up with him in Feb. of my senior year because it was too much to handle.we were in love-and my parents still had no clue that i even talked to him.its my biggest regret. We love eachother and still have that romantic relationship. Im now 20. My parents know now that I talk to him everyday and that we see each other when I come home from school. But how do I tell them that I want to be with him? my mom has told me she doesnt want me to end up with him. but they dont even know him. ...u just have to know my parents. help :(

sweetie, i bet your parents already know, there just hoping for the best for them. my parents are very closed minded also. i told myself i would rise above the way they tryed to raise me, and i did. love is so, so hard to find in this world, color should not matter at all, but to them i know it does, be true to your own heart, if you really love him, show them how much! start by telling them the truth, you are 20 years old, take a stand. it is not like he is a criminal, trust me, i have been there my father told me he would rather see me dead. 11 years latter and all is well, they really dont want to lose you, they love my husband now:)

I began the process to refi my house with usbank they charged me $75 up front with my visa credit card an appraisal was done. One week prior to closing they called and changed the terms of the loan saying that because the home is a manufactured home the terms were different. When the original appraisor called I asked if they knew that the home was manufactured, they said no but would contact us bank for another appraisor to come out. Which they did. Our original loan was with us bank. They had this information.Needless to say we did not continue the transaction w/them. We refied with another bank i have now discovered that us bank charged my account the $500 appraisal fee without notification.We would have continued with the loan had they not changed the terms from 30 year fixed 0pts to 20 years 1pt. I don't believe they are correct in doing this as THEY changed the terms of the loan! Help I want my $500 back!

Get a lawyer.  I don't know what the legalities are here, but something doesn't sound right.

MY B/F want me to come over for the holiday but i really hates where he"s living just think about going over there make me sick its nothing much why i dont like his house just that i have to walk a good walk before i reach there also the road to go there his really a mess.But he treats me like a queen  when am with him even more when am at this house. 60% dont want to go and 40% say i should . What dont you think?He knows that i hate coming over but thats the only way for us to be together you know .

i think if you like him that much and he treats you good, then it shouldn't matter where he lives. suck it up and have a good time with him. Good Luck!

Given that the curved surface area of a circular cone is 100, find out the maxium volume of this cone without using calculus.(our teacher doesn't allow us to calculate this with calculus!)

Yes this can be done without calculus.\nThe volume, V, of a circular cone is:\nV = 1/3 x pi x r^2 x h \nwhere r = radius of circular base, and h = cone height\nYou also need the formula for, S, the surface area of the cone:\nS = pi x r x Sqrt(r^2 + h^2) (excludes area of base)\nWe need to know the ratio h/r which will give us the maximum Volume for a given S.\nAlthough this can be solved using calculus, we can determine the desired ratio h/r from an elementary consideration of planar figures:\nIf we are given that a rectangle has a given perimeter, p, then it is easy to show that a square with side length p/4 encloses more area (i.e. p^2/16) than any other rectangle with perimeter p. Similarly, an equilateral triangle with perimeter, p, will enclose more area than any other triangle having perimeter p.\nNow if we imagine rotating the equilateral triangle around its perpendicular height h (i.e a bisector of one of the angles) we will generate a cone with height h and surface area S and this cone will enclose a greater volume than any other cone having the same surface area S. For an equilateral triangle the ratio of the height, h, to 1/2 the base (which will become r for the cone) is h/r = Sqrt(3) = 1.732 or h = 1.732r\nSince we know S = 100 and we have h as a function of r, we can determine both r and h from the formula for S:\nwe have:\n100 = pi x r xSqrt(r^2 + (1.73r)^2). Solving for r we have\nr = 3.99 and h= 6.91. We substitute these values into the Volume formula to obtain the maximum volume:\nV = i/3 x pi x (3.99)^2 x 6.91 = 115.2 cubic units.

When we are together it seems like the world melts away. We look into each others eyes and know we feel the same. But sometimes I look at him and think, wait, what am I doing?? He is just so much older than me. I don't want to break up. I love and care about him soo much. I want to get over this obstacle. I think he is one in a million and he treats me like gold. So how do I get over this hurdle? We talked about it and he is very patient and understanding, but I think it still hurts him to hear this. The age thing doesnt phase him. It doesn't really bother me when we are out in public together, and my parents are supportive but haven't met him yet. He is uncomfortable with meeting them right away because he thinks they don't realize "how much gray" he has. But in time, he will. We have been on some 20 wonderful dates, including an overnight beach trip. When I woke up in the morning I was like, whoa. This guy is 40. Sometimes it's the last thing on my mind and sometimes it haunts me. Y?

First you just gotta get ovet the superficial appearances, etc., and ask yourself if you really love him?  If yes, then get over the little things.  My parents have the same age gap and have been together for 30 years.  It can work, as long as the age thing doesn't get to you.  Forget numbers and focus on people.


I  bought  a package of Reeses Peanut Butter cups.  Used to be, that had  a statement that said, "Best if used before __" and had a date. Now ther is a code that say "S6ALVS  " How are we supposed to knwo it it isnt any good anymore? This candy was terrible, because the peanut butter inside was not moist, but, dry like a powder.  I think the candy has expired its freshness date. So why did they remove expiration dates?\nCandy isn't the only thing. I notice now, many products, like breakfast cereals, also have a code instead of a date.

This is done so you can't read the expiration date.\nThe grocers can read the codes, and it is up to them to pull the products. If they abuse the system, you suffer.

my bf dumped me because he found out that I used to cut on my arm. That was in my past though!!!!! Was that fair of him and willl everyone do this to me???

alot of people are afraid of girls or boys that do this and there is alot of reason people do and the are afraid of what you might do. my daughter was doing this to fit in with friends that was doing it. she would not cut enough to make herself bleed but enough to leave marks and she had alot of things go on to her over it with seeking help and bein watch by everyone around because we all was afraid of her hurting herself and dieing. its hard to deal with things like that because of they might be to afraid of you killing yourself and don't want to deal with it. you really have to look at it as a big part of your life that is going to hurt you and help you. just make sure you let your next boyfriend now. and as far as your ex boyfriend goes he was not good for you anyway. because if he was he would stick with you no matter what. gl hun

How is it that nearly 40 out of USAs 100 richest r Jewish... How is that over 90 of Russia's 100 richest r Jewish... and thre are more then 200 Jews on th UKs total rich list!? According to my research France, Caanada, Ukraine and all countries with Jews in them have Jews al over the rich lists... and similar disproportionate percentages in all other countries even with tiny Jewish populations like China, India, Iran, Ireland, Germany..! amongst so many others! How is that 1/4 of the Members of Prlimnt are Jewish when thrs only 300.000 jewish in the UK? How do there get 2 be six member of the Houses of the Oireachtas, of Ireland when there are only 1500 jews in Ireland!? How many jews are ther in the US congrss? How is that all the bigst Jewish companies get 2 b the bigst jewish companies like Lauder, Channel, K Klein, Dell, Intel, Apple, HP and a million others, (the list strangely disapeared from wikipdia) Are they just xtra hard workers? Super blessings? A down 2 earth answer plz!!!

I think that it's two things...\nA. they teach their children how to handle money, that's something that most people don't know and that those that do know it, they don't teach others... I also think it needs to be taught in the school systems and it's as important as math and reading... \nB. They support each other... I think they give other jews low intrest loans and advice to help them be successful... a business support system... money makes money and they share... \n\nif the upper 1 percent of the U.S. treated the rest of the U.S. like that, the U.S. would be unstopable, instead they tend to just call them lazy and hold on to their money in their greed, exepct for the Jews with other Jews... I think we could learn something from them


I was watching tv one night and saw a comercial for some sort of program that would help you do just that. Or is this just a pipe dream? The tv ad also said that people with poor credit would be able to get rid of their other debt. Please help if you can.

Your can buy a house with poor credit owner finace and pay 54% interest and never pay it off its nothing more than a scam.*\n\nWhen you get behind they put you out than turn around and sell it again but they keep you large down payment. Its legal instead of being a sum-lord they or sum financers.\n\nI bought a home through Coldwell Reality last year and the bank they back track your rental and credit history 10 years a house is the hardest thing in this world to buy.

I think I may be pregnant but not sure yet.  I have been getting ALOT of dizzy spells.  I almost fainted today at work any home remedys?

are you doing anything just before or during that makes them come on?  like standing up?  a lot of dizzy spells are from low blood preasure, especially when standing up (it's called orthostatic hypotension).  also it can come from low blood sugar.   so make sure you're not getting too hungry by snacking on fruits during the day and drink plenty of water.


I procrastinate a lot and need some help with motivation. any ideas?

Set small short-term goals (make sure they are achievable), and have set rewards for when you achieve your goals. If your goals are weight- or fitness-related, try having a look at sparkpeople.com. They have a points system, which is doing remarkably well keeping me in line.
