i am dating this guy and im slowly starting to fall in love with him but i am still in love with my ex we still r friends but he wants to be friends with benefits hes always trying to kiss me even though he knows i have a boyfriend what should i  do?

Ok, look....it seems to me like your ex is just playing around...I mean he knows you have a boyfriend, a good guy would respect that....and if he cared about you he wouldn't be doing this to you, I mean he's confusing you everytime he tries to kiss you and when he tells you he wants you to be friends with benefits? If he cared about you, he would just try to see you as a friend, and try to move on! If you don't love the guy you're with, then talk to him, I don't think it's fair to the other guy, if you think you're slowly falling in love with the other guy, and if he's a good guy, then stay with him....you and your ex broke up for a reason right? then why bother going back? if your relationship with him didn't last you think is gonna last the second time? You're just going to get hurt that way, and in the long run you'll realize that you lost an amazin guy, and trust me once you do something, you can't really go back, only if you're lucky! But if you think you'll never love your new boyfriend, then just be honest with him, and maybe tell him to give you some time or just tell him you want to be just friends! But trust me I think you should move on and forget about your ex! I hope that helped you, just follow your heart, if your heart tells you to go back with your ex then be honest to the other guy, but my advice would be not to cheat on him, I don't think anyone deserves that!

I don't have anyone to co-sign with me and did not qualify for a grant, I need $6000.00 more to cover my tuition for ITT-TECH.

First, file the FAFSA (http://www.fafsa.ed.gov ). Two of the major Federal Student loan programs -- Stafford and Perkins -- are unique in that they require absolutely NO credit check. In fact, Financial Aid Administrators are forbidden from checking your credit as a condition for receiving these loans. You don't even need to show financial need to obtain an Unsubsidized Stafford Loan -- as long as your school is accredited, you are enrolled at least half-time as a regular student, and your other financial aid doesn't exceed your Cost of Attendance, you will be offered a Stafford Loan. \n\nIf you have "maxed out" your eligibility for Federal loans, there are private companies that will lend you money even if your credit is bad (which you're fixing, I hope?). \n\nSince you don't have a co-signer, you will need to be selective. Don't apply for loans indiscriminately -- every inquiry into your credit is another "hit" on your credit score. First, review the huge list of private loan lenders on FinAid's website: http://www.finaid.org/loans/privatestudentloans.phtml ... Go to each lender's site and read the terms and credit criteria of their loans until you find one that focuses more on one of your credit strengths (job history, perhaps). Some companies you might want to focus on: Access Group, Campus Door, Wells Fargo. \n\nBe careful when searching online for companies that specifically claim to offer loans to people with bad credit (companies like Astrive are questionable because they bypass the school). Make sure the company has a good track record before you commit to a 10-30 relationship with them.\n\nScholarships are always the ideal solution, and I would still recommend applying for as many as you can, but if the application processes won't net you any money before your bill comes due, you should consider either getting a second (or first?) job, either as part of a co-op or work-study program or at an outside company (i.e. Walmart, the Gap, or a temp agency).\n\nAnother good option might be a payment plan.  These are usually offered through the school, but you may be able to arrange something privately.  Examples include http://www.afford.com or http://www.tuitionpay.com\n\nScholarship search sites:\n* http://www.fastweb.com/\n* http://apps.collegeboard.com/cbsearch_ss/welcome.jsp\n* http://www.scholarships101.com/\n* http://www.srnexpress.com/\n* http://www.scholarships.com/\n* http://services.princetonreview.com/default.asp?RUN=%2Fcollege%2Ffinance%2Fscholar%2FscholInterview%2Easp&RCN=auth&RDN=7&ALD=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eprincetonreview%2Ecom\n* http://www.finaid.org/scholarships\n* http://www.collegeanswer.com/paying/content/pay_free_money.jsp

i heard from your school counseler. i am in highschool, almost 16.

You should go to your school counselor for your workers permit.


Stephen Hawking hypothesized that black holes lose energy (and thus mass) due to the formation of particle-antiparticle pairs on event horizon, where one particle is ripped from its partner into the hole while the other is boosted away. But this violates conservation of energy, as the particle that escaped has virtually come from nothing. Somehow, the black hole emits radiation to equal this missing energy (this is Hawking's paper). Thus, according to this theory, black holes slowly evaporate over time.\nThere are a few problems with this theory, though. See


She looks mentally abused and totally dazed. When she looks into the camera its like she trying to say something, help?

Hey, we all sometimes make the mistake of falling in love with cult members who cry out for help.  But don't do it, dude.  Number one, she's married; and number two, the secret service will probably take you out.  \n\nPersonally, I feel better knowing she is under severe mind control because we get to see her more than we got to see Pat Nixon, who was only on prescription drugs, and also because she's also the poster child for the rest of the nation who can only compare this feeling to waking up from a couple of very strong vicodin.  Now we can say, Laura Bush isn't on drugs!  She feels the same way I do!  So now we have someone we can truly identify with.\n\nFight for your mind, Laura.  We are with you.


the person that was at the snow storm when a teacher went back from time...

the lady from 10 years ago is Mikan's Mother her name is Azumi Yuka..she has a stealing alice and a member of the anti-alice organization. Yuka, Narumi & Reo were best friends and Narumi is insanely inlove with her however Yuka likes a Teacher (Mikan's father) he also has a nullifying alice


he is the hottest guy in school and i wish he would go out with me but he doesn't even notice me! well we are pretty good friends but i just ask me out

guys love it when girls ask us out.  I'm sure he notices you, he just doesn't show it.  If you are pretty good friends then he will listen to what you have to say and regardless of how he acts.. he will consider it.  Let him think about it for a day and DON'T ACT OBSESSED.  That will freak him out.  Act cool about it.  I've had girls ask me out like this and even if i didn't really think of them like that before i gave the relationship a try.  a lot of times it worked out decently well.


About 5 years ago, I worked at a deparment store.  That particular location closed dued to low sales. Before I left, the store manager had quit for a different job, and I left before they found a new store manager. I'm wondering what I should put on future applications and resumes. Do I just omit this particular job? Or should I put something like "Store Now Closed" in  the phone number/address area?\n\nI don't know if this will help, but I left on good terms with the company.

yes but "business no longer in opperation" no current contact info known. then place all info about the place when you were working there you know. and if they ask reason for leaving say the truth.


CPS took my daughter from me because of the test result. I swear I've never touched cocaine before. The other sites I've been on say amoxicillin, liver disease, kidney disease, and diabetes can cause a false positive result. None of those apply to me. During my pregnancy I had 4 drug tests which came out negative. They won't believe the no drug use theory. Somebody please help figure this out!! I would never endanger my child in this way. Isn't there anything else that could create a false positive result?

I actually heard about this on the news. I dont know if it was you.What about the baby's father? Do you think he could have had anything to do with it?I suggest you have an independent lab do a comprehensive blood,urine,and hair sample drug tests on you to prove you did not do drugs. Think about everything your child could come in contact with. You may not have given the child cocaine but someone else may have. See if they can do any other tests on the child in case the first test was contaminated or inaccurate.


I want to start a new buiness. but what should I start, any ideas of what is hot.  Or it could be narrowed down to the retail industry, or not.  anything would be helpful.

...using a Yahoo! avatar, or other avatars, or the Sims, or anything else?  That is, have you plotted or written a novel, play, short story, etc., and visually created one of its characters on the Internet or on the computer screen?  How far did/could you take it?

I have not created a story, but I do dress my Avatar in whatever my mood is like that day, or I match her to what I'm wearing that day.  On Fridays, before I go home from work, I make sure she's ready for the weekend, ready to do whatever I have planned.  But it's just for fun, nothing serious.  I am an office manager at a construction company, so I don't have a ton of things to do during the day.

My teachers have told me I could take any scholarship I choose but that is something I can not make a choice about

If you family is rich, refuse the offer so that the money could go to the poorer students.


Recently someone went into my Best Answers and gave a "thumbs up" to a bunch of them, scoring me some points.  I thought it was so nice, I wanted to pay him back which if it is who I thought it was, I already did.  But then I thought wouldn't it be cool if I did it to someone else and sent them an e-mail saying "Pay it Forward", and they did that for someone else, etc. etc.  \n\nWhat do you think of this idea and do you want to start the ball rolling by choosing a poster, going into his/her Best Answers and giving "thumbs up" to as many as you want.  (5-10 i guess).  Would this be against community guidelines as point gaming or whatever it's called?  But we would be doing it for others, not for ourselves so maybe it would be "excusable"?\n\nThoughts or comments are welcome, and if you agree, get going!\n\n(I'm posting this in Spirituality because it's a "spiritual" thing to do.  If it takes off, and i'm not violating guidelines, I'll post it in other categories as well).

I think this is a great idea and I hope it works.  I would be glad to participate.  **I LOVE that movie!!


The patient is a lady of age 62, USG is normal, urine test shows few pus cells & epithelial cells, other ok. Suffering from orthoarthritis and having lower back pain since long time. She is going through physiotherapy and quite ok for that.

It sounds like lymphedema, swelling of a limb often experienced as a side-effect of removal of the lymph nodes, as in cancer surgery. Perhaps the lymph nodes are blocked for some reason.\n\nI'm not a physician or medical student, just know a little about lymphedema from a friend who has it.


it is the 1st time, that we are apart and his bday is soon. want to send him a lil package but i am clueless in what i can include. i do not want to ask him as it will ruin the surprise. letters, bday card and pics are already there....anymore ideas?

Here's some things they tell us in Soldiers Angels (find via Yahoo!).\n\nSend some non-perishable items like canned fruit or ravioli or noodle cups (its best if the cans have pull-off lids, and they often do have access to a microwave). Also, some sweet items that won't go bad either (it can take over a week to get there).\n\nIf you are going to send hygiene items like soap or deodorant (he has access to these, but he has to PAY for them they are NOT issued by the military), make certain they are in a separate carton because the soap smell will get into the food and it will taste bad.\n\nThis is a wonderful idea, and it would really help him if after this maybe you send him regular packages. There are a lot of regular items he does not have access to on a regular basis. When I send things to the soldier I adopted, I try to send little things he can share with his friends also.\n\nTry to remember that he might not always have time to write to you as often as he would like. This is not him being unkind.


Reading is great, but to some there are some things not to be read. As a Christian (studying JW)... is it right to read such lies that condemn ones one religion? Things like the Da vinci code, Crisis of concieous (bad spelling),etc.?

ugh.... if you actually read the book, you'd know that the Da Vinci code is NOT condemning religion. its a FICTIONAL NOVEL. its only meant to entertain, and all it does is give a theory as to how jesus may have lived. \n\nif you're so afraid of a book or a story destroying your faith, do you really have that much faith to begin with??\nread the book, then make the decisions for yourself.


you seriously cant do anything in this world solo can you?

yes thats true. but if everyone thinks in this way then there wont be anything. there must be someone who has to initiate or make an attempt. there r people in this world who may extend their hands to help and r satisfied with u. even history says that. gandhiji started solo but he soon got many followers.same way martin luther was one.


I LUV HER SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH i dunno wt id do wiv out her and a boi friend wldnt help plz plz can some 1 help! im 13 i no im a lez tho cause i LOVE HER I NO WHAT LOVE IS PLEASE HELP I WANA B WIV HER NOW :(

Honey your to young to decide what you are wait a few years, and then see how it goes. I would say for 1 you can't make anyone you love love you back.


I did try refreshing the page as well as logging on again but when I tried both of these it didn't show any new mail notice.

I think refreshing and logging in should have solved the problem.  Try this:\n\nDelete your Temporary Internet Files\nClose your browser\nRe-boot the computer\nRe-install the mail program\nTest the SMTP connection\n\nNow you should see some new mail notices.


i got a 8-incher but i want a monster ;) any one no of a natural way like certain vitamins or something

As far as the creams and pills on the market they are mainly herbs and/or vitamins which have not been approved the by FDA. Some men have even had reactions to them as well.\nThere is controversy surrounding penile enlargement surgery. Some see this surgery as similar to breast enlargement surgery, in that the body change contributes to a person's self-esteem. However, the surgical techniques, although available, are not well researched or defined at this point. The American Board of Urology, the only certifying board of urologists in the United States, has no official stance or statement on surgical penis enlargement.\nIf you feel there is a real problem with size, you are better off to see a urologist.


It would be great if someone can give me real solution to this. or does any kinds of pills work? If so what?\nThanx

practice by masturbating, when you are about to come, stop masturbating.\n\nwait until you do not feel the sensation anymore, then start masturbating again, stop, wait then masturbate again\n\nThe effect in the long run is that you will ejaculate longer than expected.  \n\ndo it with your gf too. while doing sex, stop when you are about to come, restart when it does not feel good anymore\n\nyou have to ask her to bear with you, she will understand it \n\npractice makes perfect...


Is it normal for a woman to refer to her genitalia in the third person? As if they have some sort of inanimate life with feelings,personality and a name. When one of my girlfriends started talking like that in bed i got sort of freaked out. Is that normal or should i have left her a long time ago?

That's a question I'd waste 5 points on....NOT


I am sure I was thrown off because I oppose Patriotism. Like Einstein, Samuel Johnson, Tolstoy and John Lennon. I think it is a source of wars and a blind for the manipulators of the gullible. I can understand disagreement. But am I to accept being silenced for holding a minority opinion?

YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SILENCED> YOU ARE FREE TO MOVE ABOUT AND EXPRESS YOUR OPINIONS ELSEWHERE.\n\nYahoo! is a business like any other.  If you owned a store at the mall selling "No More Blind Patriotism!" t-shirts you would be within your constitutional rights to evict from your store persons wearing Stars & Stripes t-shirts and singing Woodie Guthrie songs off-key.\n\nFreedom means freedom. It doesn't mean freedom for dissenters!


I have 6 years of experience as a taper, I consider my self a good taper. The only problem i have with my work that i dont know nobody from the union that could recomended me. But i do  know some companies out side union. I only need a chanse, if any of u are able to give me that chanse u wont regreted.

I am sure the Teamsters will take your dues.


I was told that only my insurance would cover surgery if dental work is needed. I need to find a dentist first for checkups before i do this. Plz help in the state of virginia please. (tidewater area 757)

You can search for providers at: http://www.virginiapremier.com/home/search/providerSearch.jsp\n\nIt does not look like they provide dental insurance, so you would most likely need to pay for a dentist on your own and get a referral for surgery. There are orthodontic surgeons listed, you could start there.


I have been told that there are two types of creatine, one being good and the other harmful. which category does creatine ethyl ester malate fall into.  does it hinder your body's systems in any way? Would/Have you use/used it?

Creatine is natural in skeletal muscle and is not harmful. The "good and bad" creatines have alot to do with how much is absorb by your body as useful creatine. Check out Muscular Development, they have a website.


The bank took from me forced resignation letter in march 2004,till date the bank has not sent to me Resignation Acceptance letter. The benefit accumalated was adjusted towards loans taken by me without my consent. Can I fight legally for getting back my job. Whether employer and employee relationship still exist,since, no resignation acceptance letter sent to me so far. This has happend in India. It is a foreign bank in India where I worked.

I think you can. Since you should have been given releiving letter and balance of the due of you retirement benefits. As far adjusting the loan against your due - bank always take appropriate document to adjust your loan against your dues. In fact they can do this against Set-off rule without any papers. So you may not be able to fight on this count.\n\nFrankly speaking, the bank would have taken proper precaution for completing all formalities. Another thing it may be that you were not even an employee of the bank rather were recruited as consultant only. There fore would advice that before getting in some legal tangles and wasting your time and money, better take a look on all facts before taking any step.

Woke up yesterday with large absesson left side of face.Went to ER recieved Antibiotic and painkiller shot,sent home with precriptions.When I awoke today the absess grew 20x,Left side of face looks like I tried eating a softball.Went to ER,Given 2 Antibiotic Push,appt. made with oral surgeon.As I write this,the swelling has gone down a little,about the size of baseball,maybe a lttle bigger.Now that u have background,Heres the Question:Will the surgeon be able to do anything with this much swelling?I have heard that if something is tried,with this much swelling,things could be dangerous.That True?Also Er doc said nothing could be given for Absess pain(prescription)As I am in Agony with pain I have never felt be4,Is that True?I have an Appt. in about 10hrs,but i have always been terrified by dentists so trying to get some accurate info if I can.Any help in this matter would be Appreciated.

I'm a dentist.\n\nGod help you pal.  Some of the advice given here not only reeks of ignorance, but is just plain stupid.  Advil for swelling caused by an infection?  Any high-school student would know that makes absolutely no sense.\n\nUnfortunately, and believe it or not, ER docs aren't particularly good with dental infections and at times, don't really know how to handle them.\n\nThere are a few things you must evaluate:\n\n1. Are you having difficulty opening your mouth?  Not painful opening, but difficulty opening.  There's a difference.  The latter is known as trismus, and is an indication that the infection is spreading backward in the direction of your neck.  Trismus indicates the presence of infection around the masticator muscles, which lie just in front of the lateral pharyngeal space...which is ground zero for airway compromise.\n\n2. Are you having difficult swallowing?  Painful swallowing is not an emergency, but difficulty swallowing is?\n\n3. Are you having difficulty breathing?  This is the biggie...\n\nIf you have any of these, you march yourself to the emergency room and let them know.  And if no one brings it up, suggest to them that there may be a potential airway issue.  An infection such as yours, even with antibiotics, can go from bad to lethal in a matter of hours.\n\nI truly hope that you are on a high dosage of a medication that covers anaerobic bacteria well, such as Clindamycin or Flagyl.  Do not ice your face, and do not begin using warm compresses until after the oral surgeon has drained the infection and has instructed you to do so.\n\nThe oral surgeon can drain the infection, and that will help with the swelling, but the main purpose is to help eliminate the infection.  A big pocket of pus in your face is not going to be helped much by antibiotics.  Introducing oxygen (i.e. air) into the abscess by surgical drainage along with placement of a Penrose drain sutured in place to maintain drainage and influx of oxygen, is the goal.  At this point, the infection consists of primarily anaerobic bacteria.  Introducing air turns the environment unfavorable for them.  This process requires surgery.\n\nIf I were you, I'd put your fears aside, bite the bullet, and don't be late for your appointment tomorrow.


A DEAF MAN IS RUNNING AWAY WITH A BLIND MAN'S WIFE AND A DUMB MAN SEES THEM RUNNING AWAY.... HOW WILL HE TELL THE BLIND MAN ABOUT THIS???

If the national guard can not assist border patrol or law enforcement or guard illegal immigrants, why did the president redeploy 6,000 troops to the Mexican border?

Well, he was basically just trying to save his own reputation with his speech.


A penniless Mexican who NEEDS the money is "stealing" jobs away from the American worker and it's such a terrible thing. A multimillion dollar American corporation can send jobs overseas because people in other countries will do the same job for less. What's the difference, except that in one example the poor get money to eat and in another example some rich CEO gets even more money? In both cases Americans are losing money because other countries will do the same jobs cheaper. Just like Republicans, always hypocritical and siding with the rich with little or no sympathy for the poor. Granted they are illegal immigrants, but some of them wouldn't have been able to get here without sneaking across, AND a lot of people would say that outsourcing should be illegal, too. I say if it's wrong to screw over the American worker, it's wrong in ALL cases.

Typical Democrat: What a dumb ass you are! First..you always hear the Dems cry about outsourcing job..it's a fact that we IN-SOURCE 10X that many jobs. You are getting your information from the democratic leadership..I know they TELL you what and how to think...BUT try to think OUT-SIDE the box they give you! Quit listening to Jesse Jackson, Johnny Kerry, Kennedy and the rest of these liberals..they don't give a damn about the poor because they are ALL RICH. And just remember it's not the poor who create jobs..it's the ones with brains and wealth who create jobs..Dems bring poverty..THINK!

From what you describe, it would be the guidelines the parole board is using that would change, not the sentence.  Just because they could release them earlier doesn't mean they will.

Hurricane Insurance, Wind, Flood etc. etc. Are there any websites that tell me more? What will it cover?

I just don't want to spend a ton of money on the wedding but I need money saving ideas. Any ideas for me are greatly appreciated.....

Have a small bridal party, one or two bridesmaids/groomsmen and ask them to pay for their own clothing for the day(or No bridesmaids/groomsmen).  \nHave the ceremony at the church where you are a member...if you have a church.  They often give lower prices and provide a lot of ammenities.  For example my chuch only cost $200 and they had a wedding/reception coordinator, did all the clean up after wards, served at the reception, provided plates/serving ware/utensils/cups and mixed the punch for the reception.  \nUse fake/silk flowers.\nHave a cake/punch reception instead of serving a meal. \nHave a sheet cake instead of a tiered cake, or have a small tiered cake for the wedding party/parents and a sheet cake to feed all the other people. \nLimit the guest list to Family/extended family. \nMake your invitations or buy them at Staples, Wal-Mart, etc.\nHave a basic ceremony, no unity candle(s).\nKnow what you want, don't let the sales people talk you into bigger/better/more expensive.  \n\nREMEMBER: The wedding day is about you and your soon to be husbands love for each other, not the decorations.

THOSE WERE THE DAYS :) :) :)


I have a friend who gets enough money back to pay his rent up for each semester, but he only applied for one, the FAFSA.

You are eligible to receive financial aid up to your Cost of Attendance, which is a speficic figure set by your school.  Until very recently, schools weren't allowed to include housing (on- or off-campus) costs in the COAs of *part-time* students, which may be why you haven't been eligible before.  If you become full-time, your COA is likely to include a "reasonable" amount for housing, books, transportation, etc. It can include other "necessities," too (at the school's discretion).  If you can live on a budget, your financial aid might be able to cover your bills (it really depends on how much you spend on rent, etc).\n\nKeep in mind that there are limits to the amount of grant aid that you can receive, regardless of whether your school COA is $10,000 or $40,000 -- so you may not be able to cover your entire COA (and get money for rent) with just grants like Pell and SEOG.  However, you will be allowed to borrow loans (Federal or private, depending on your level of Financial Need) to cover your remaining costs.  Chances are that your friend either (1) borrows loans, (2) receives generous instutitional scholarship, (3) doesn't go to a very expensive school, or (4) all of the above.  This would be why he has financial aid left over after his bill has been paid...


Does anyone know if gambit is going to be in the latest X-Men? And is this the last movie?

NO HE ISN'T..\nYES IT PROBABLY IS..\nAND TO "HAWKEYEJAMES",YES THE BEAST \nIS AN ORIGINAL & FOUNDING MEMBER \nOF THE X-MEN!!


Halloween, he was dressed like a doctor, she grabbed his scrotum area & said cough.  She did it twice. He got mad at me because I got mad and told her to back off. He says I need counseling because I'm jealous. Then he asked me if I was going to get pissed off if she came and sat on his lap.  She is married and works at a lumber yard he goes to everyday.  He told me she quit but I saw her there the other day they were very chummy.  I was dressed as a nurse on Halloween and was approached by many guys who said they needed a rectal exam but I told them that I was attached. If he'd let her do that when I'm there what the H### ?

He is no loyal boyfriend. Its not jealousy when another woman touches your boyfriend in intimate places, and its not respect or loyalty to you when he makes you the bad guy for her inappropriate behavior. \n\nHe lied to you. \nHe disrespects you. \n\nDump this loser.


I had this guy once. i swear i almost died i couldnt walk stright for a day!!!. he was just too big! i guess too big isnt that great after all.

yes it took a couple of days before i was feeling right, but after a few more times it wasn't so bad

Is tobacco harmful,what are its effects on health

its fine, my grandmother smoked two packs a day since she was in her 20's and lived to be 87 years old.


I have an Excel spreadsheet that I need to have SaveAs automatically using a value posted in a cell.  Is there a way to do this with a Macro?

Characterize the following reflections as either diffuse or specular.                                                                                \n  Reflection from a white piece of paper  \n  Reflection from a projector screen  \n  Reflection from a bedroom mirror  \n  Reflection from a cloth seat cover  \n  Reflection from the top of a puddle of water

Reflection off of smooth surfaces such as mirrors or a calm body of water leads to a type of reflection known as specular reflection. Reflection off of rough surfaces such as clothing, paper, and the asphalt roadway leads to a type of reflection known as diffuse reflection.\n\nGood luck doing your homework!


Here in Denmark almost one third of the population smokes. I assume the figure is at lot lower in the US?

I smoke and live in Illinois.  All of my friends smoke, and so do my co-workers.  I don't think that it is lower in the United States at all.  In Chicago the price of a pack of smokes is about $8.  I live further away, and I can get a carton for $31.  Everyone smokes at the bars here, and all of our restaurants have "smoking and non-smoking sections".


I brought my car Saturday and hit the pigeon Sunday (Mother's Day no less!).  I came home and threw some bread outside for the birds and noticed a dead pigeon under my back door.  Of course, today I break a mirror.  I'm not superstitious, but DAMN this is odd!

Their is a church in Baltimore that starts with an X

St. Francis Xavier Church in East Baltimore was the first Catholic Church in the United States officially established for Negroes. The church was purchased on October 10, 1863 and dedicated February 21, 1864, with a group of Black San Domingo refugees, who were Catholic, and the Sulpician Fathers, who had fled the French Revolution and settled in Baltimore.\n\nThe Sulpician Fathers arrived in Baltimore in early 1790. Soon after the Sulpicians had settled at St. Mary's Seminary on Pennsylvania Road (now Pennsylvania Avenue); there arrived in Baltimore a large number of Negro Catholic refugees. According to the Maryland Gazette, date: Thursday, July 11, 1791, the arrival in Baltimore at Fell's Point, six ships, being a part of the French fleet which sailed from Cape Francois on June 23, 1793. Aboard the ships were between 500 and 1000 Negroes, slave and free. Most of the free Blacks were wealthy and educated. Whether slave or free, the refugees were Catholic and spoke fluent French.\n\nAfter they settled in Baltimore, the Black refugees began to attend Mass in the basement of St. Mary's Seminary. The Sulpicians who also spoke French administered to the religious needs of the Haitians. The basement chapel was set aside for the Blacks' exclusive use. Father Louis Dubourg, a Sulpician, assisted the newly formed congregation several years before he was appointed president of Georgetown College in 1796.\n\nFather Tessier, who became the Rector of St. Mary's Seminary, took charge of the Parish in the basement chapel. He had the help of Father Nogat who taught catechism in French to children. In 1803, Father Nogat was called to France but Father Tessier stayed on as the parish priest for 30 years.\n\nBy 1827, Father Tessier was aided by another Sulpician, Father James Nicholas Joubert de la Muraille, who had been a soldier and a tax collector in San Domingo before he became a priest. In 1828, Father Jouber helped to form a religious community of "Colored Sisters" now known as the Oblate Sisters of Providence.\n\nSince slavery was the established order of the time, the only education that many of the Blacks received was from the Catholic Church. A school was started and the Oblate Sisters were the teachers. In 1836, the Oblates moved to Richmond Street. St. Francis Parish also moved with the Sisters to Richmond Street. About 1847, Father Answander, a Redemptorist priest, took charge of the religious activities at the convent and school.\n\nSeveral years later, the Jesuits invited the Negro Catholics to attend service at St. Ignatius Church, Madison and Calvert Streets. Again, the basement of the church was set aside for exclusive use of the Blacks. Under the guidance of Father Peter Louis Miller, SJ, the basement chapel of Blessed Peter Claver was filled to capacity at every Mass. Father Miller with the assistance of Father Michael O'Connor through the authority of the Jesuit Society, purchased a building on the southeast corner of Calvert and Pleasant Streets in October 1863.  Father Miller, age 58, died in 1879, fifteen years after the church was turned over to the Mill Hill Fathers, later to be known as the Josephite Fathers.  St. Francis Xavier Church was dedicated February 21, 1864.\n\nFurther, on November 17, 1871, there arrived in Baltimore, from Mill Hill, England, four priests and their founder, Cardinal Herbert Vaughn. These priests were known as missionaries and assigned to St. Francis Xavier Church in December 1871.  Immediately activities around the church showed a marked increase. On Sunday mornings there were three Masses instead of two, a priest house was opened and completely furnished on Courtland Street. A home for the aged poor was started and an orphanage was operated. A night school was opened for adults; an industrial school was held in the basement of the church and a lending library was held in the priest house.\n\nAlthough some of the organizations of St. Francis Church had a s


Ive known this girl for a year now. We finally dated and it only lasted 1 month. We broke up because she didnt feel the same way about me, think it had to do with her baggage and things were rushed. Anyways we agreed to remain friends. We still talk like almost every day. Its been a week now since the break up, but now everytime we talk she always tries to put me on guilt trips, makes me feel jealous, or tries to make me depressed. For example, she would randomly tell me she is doing an activity, and then ill be like is this an invitation? And she would say no im going with some one else. Anyways i want these mind games to stop. How do i fix this? Why would she be doing this? I think shes not telling me something. I also noticed everytime she's gotta problem in life she calls me crying and needs me to console her.

DON'T answer the phone, and tell her kindly that the friendship thing just isn't working for you. Obviously she thrives on head games and you are letting her do this to you. As the old saying goes....there are plenty of fish in the sea..find a girl to respect you, and give yourself a break, you deserve it.


Dh seems to "know" of cases where a prisoner had to be released because they lived through execution. I have never heard of this. Anyone have any answers for this one?

An execution, by definition results in death.  It is impossible to live through execution.  There may be many an urban legend out there, but people who are executed stay executed, generally speaking.  It may take a few tries to get it right though.  Shocking.


arsenal goalkeeper was send off in fisrt 18th minute which led down to ten men and arsenal score first till two late goal from Barcelona make it unfortunate for arsenal to be crown european champion in champion league.

No It was not fair for Jens Lehmann to b sent off. it was a dive, but the referee should not been too extreme. believe me, if Lehmann wasn't sent off n Robert Pires was sacrificed, Barcelona wouldn't score much - considering Arsenal 's defense was excellent. i mean, come on, Samuel Eto'o's goal was clearly offside, but the ref didn't call that one off. the game was clearly one sided..n how did Manuel Almunia performed? <the subs GK> he was not as good as Lehmann.. sending in a GK who hasn't played since the last season..\n\nanyway, let's hope that Arsenal would be a lot better next season.. with the new Czech Republican Midfielder Tomas Rosicky.. tho it's a shame Robert Pires Leaves for Villarreal.. But hey, at least Henry's Staying for the next 4 years =D


also i think im going to college there so put that in consideration and i don't want a really expensive place is that possible are all of them about the same living expenses?

Santa Monica is probably the most expensive, followed by San Diego. L.A is probably your best choice as the population is quite diverse and the cost of living is not as bad.


I have diabetes and was let go of a job because they said they smelled liquor on me and i did not have any thing to drink

Actually your breath would not smell like alcohol whether you were high or low.  But a person can appear to be intoxicated if their sugars are low and yes people have been pulled over for it while driving (which isn't a bad thing because when your sugars are low you shouldn't be driving).  When I persons sugars are high they tend to have a sweet smell to their breath and when they are low they typically have really fowl breath.


that eve i went 2 the doctor ,,even than this morning when i sneezed blood came out my nose..what should i do/


I am 18 and I have never had a g/f. I dont understand what I do wrong, I am not all up under girls to try and get them to like me. I dont call them all the time. I probably do more praying than anything. I flirt with the girl and make it apparent that I am interested. But it doesnt seem like I never get any signs from her. So I beat around the bush and get nothing. \nI know that I try to be a nice guy and take the girl out and have a good time while my friend gets to know a girl for three days and is hooking up with her. I dont want to do that because it seems like that always ends up nowhere and personally I think very sleezy. But being kind and decent doesnt seem to work either. All I know is that for some reason girl think Im a great person its just never seems like they are attracted to me or something. I dont know if its Im not being physical enough or what. I mean I dont think I am ugly. But I hang compliment then and make them feel special but still end up in the friend zone.

Listen..you sound like a wonderful person. You seem very respectful unlike many guys out there. I love the way you think, we need more guys out there like you. Your doing everything right dont worry, your time will come that you meet that special someone. Good Luck!


ok my best friend is starting to do some pretty bad things not drugs or anything just too many guys in her life and she is starting to do stupid things with them! i love her to death and i don't wanna see her get hurt but at the rate she is goin she is gonna end up pregnat and alone! i don't want that for her! i have tryed to talk to her and tell her to stop and she says she wants to change but evertime she has the chance she screws it up with anpther guy! it is really pissing me off and i don't n owhat to do to help her stop i have tried to scare her out of it i have tryed just to talk about it and she seems to think i am just joking! everyone is starting to call her a hoe and she says she doesn't want that to be how people remembeer her but she cant stop! any advise you have for me to help her out please do! thanks!

Kudos to you for caring enough about her to want to help her.  Take her out to breakfast/lunch and sit down and have a long heart to heart with her.  Let her know all the good things that you see in her and how valuable of a person you think she is, then let her know how some positive things about her have influenced your life.  Tell her you are starting to see some things changing, and you love her and don't want to see the old her consumed by a new person that you aren't familiar with.  Remind her of the dangers/consequences of the lifestyle she is choosing, and let her know that you want better for her.  Finally, let her know that you feel this way because you see her as someone deserving all the best that life has to offer, and that u care too much to just sit by and watch her destroy her life and reputation.  Encourage her to seek counseling for low self esteem issues, and support her in any way that you can while she is going through these adjustments in her life....Don't give up on her...sometimes all people need is just 1 person to believe in them, until they can believe in themselves again!!!!....


I use to date this guy about 11 years ago. He was actually my first love and i was his. And now after all these years we're finally together. But he has changed so much in the afection part. Now he hardly ever kisses me, even when we make love. He tells me he loves me everyday, but it's usually just when he leaves to go somewhere. He use to always be affectionate in the public to but now he's not. He has just changed so much over the years and it is really a problem with me because I need alot of attention and affection or i feel like there is a problem or he just don't love me. I have talked to him about several things but all he always tells me is he loves me and ain't another woman that can take my place and he is the happiest he's ever been. He was locked up in prison for about 8 yrs, could this be part of the problem? We both have been married to other people and have kids by them. He is very good with my kids also.

I don't intend to me mean, but it sounds like the issue is yours and not his.  Okay - so he isn't as affectionate, but he sounds affectionate enough.\n\nHe isn't the same guy he was years ago.  Let's face it, the testosterone levels of a 20-yr. old would kill him today.  His body just couldn't take it.\n\nLook - talk to him about it - let him know your needs.  It sounds like he will do what he can to accommodate.  However, if he really loves you and takes good care of your kid, you have it better than 90% of the rest of us.  Be happy in that.\n\nGood luck.\nC

The educational system stronger then that of the US for children.

My children were in the British school system...they were able to read the newspaper by age 5...handwriting (not printing) at age 6...we now live in Canada\n\nMy son is in Grade 5 and can read at a grade 9 level.\n\nI definatetly feel it is better over there.


I moved back in with her to help raise kids, but I can't stand her, did I make a mistake?

Were you afraid that your kids would forget you if you left? Or that someone else would raise them not to your liking? I can understand that, but still, if you are unhappy, your kids shouldn't see you that way.


What's your favourite quote from the show?

yes, it's soooo funny......... 'look at me, look at me, kimmy, look at meeeee'!!


I am going to college and my step dad thinks that I am probably cheating on his wife which is really my biological mother, yes incest, thats so sick, but he will say really messed up things, talking about his life insurance policy and how he thinks we want him to die so that we can live off his insurance policy, one time he even implied murder.  He cheated on his wife and I think that he has a lot of demons he hasnt dealt with and instead he is taking them out on me and other people in the family, he has never said anything directly, hes to clever for that but he always makes me feel like he know there something going on behind his back and there isnt, I just want to go to college and get my degree, and right now staying at home is my only finacially acceptable choice.

Maybe a drug or alchol or mental illness don't let it get you down. Go forth with your college and get out of there talk to your Mom if you can. I have found that just saying stuff like I'm sorry that it seems that way but I'm not always helps with dealing with people like that


Document them right awy and make them pay taxe's that'sy only complaint. then shut down the border

Please go back and research some of the answers to that very question. It has been asked by many people here. Why don't you tell us why we should allow them to stay. the burden is on the illegals and their supporters to convince to population why criminals should be allowed to benefit from their crime.


i like him alot he acts older than his age. i've kissed him already

Find someone your own age!!! Or atleast wait until he is an adult before you corrupt him.

The Riddler is the most underrated and the best villian IMHO.  He battles Batman with his mind, and in this way he is the best match for a superhero who has no special powers, but who also must get by on his wits (and, of course, the gadgets!).

for example, \n\nlike in a cathode rays tube, a pulley moves with cathode rays thrust\n\ni think there is a form of light that can make my theory go i.e. to make a vehicle that moves/accelerate with light\n\n\nlow cost.............fast motion..............hehehehehe\n\ni wana give this world a miracle, who wana join hand????? tell me at mask_of_fun@yahoo.com

I think everyone else has answered this pretty clearly.  NASA looked into constructing 'solar sail ships' for space travel.  A solar powered laser placed near the sun would generate a focussed beam of mono-phasic laser light that would be directed onto an extremely light ship which maximised surface area to mass/volume by use of a special sail.  This would provide a small forward acceleration away from the laser.\n\nHowever, on Earth.. as indicated.. its a bit impracticle with present power source technologies.  You may want to think about approaching to problem of fusion power and then minimizing the technology for youur application ( a long time field of research.. not an overnight job!!).\n\nGood luck!


I work out alot, but cannot seem to target my obliques and back fat? What is the best solution for this problem area?

obliques are among the hardest muscles to work out, side crunches, side dumbell bends, together with a bit of running or swimming should do the trick tho,\nfor the dumbells and crunches do 5 sets of 25 reps,\nfor swimming (once every 2 days for about 30- 45 mins)\nrunning (daily, 30 mins)

I cannot give you a specific answer as you have forgotten to specify which email service provider you are using. \n\nBut, this option is generally given in the OPTIONS tab in most service providers.

I can't work in an office without a jacket year round.  Being cold makes me tired, also

You have a cold intolerance . This could be for a number of reasons. Time to see your doctor for a thorough check up and see whats causing it.\n\nOne thing that can cause this is a Thyroid problem and often its very under diagnosed in Men , although many men have it , even pres Bush had it.\n\nHypothyroidism is one cause of Cold Intolerance and its also a cause of being tired and fatigued all the time. It can make you gain weight , make it difficult for you to concentrate along with other things. \nMost doctors dont routinely test men for this and they should be. Women are routinely tested once we hit a certain age and develop symptoms.


After I Graduate High School, I Want To Go To A College For Filmmaking??


When i first met my best friend she was with this guy that was totally beneath her in more than one way, i helped her figure that out but then she got back with him and this time he cheated on her while being drunk and high then to top it all off she took him back. Should i tell her to dump the ass hole or would that seem like i was being too nosy??

You can advise her but you can't make her take action.\n\nIt hurts to see friends involved in self-destructive, negative behavior but we cannot make anyone else do anything. Let her know what you think. Encourage her to aim higher. Don't enable her but don't dump her. Continue to be a friend. She will eventually need you if she stays with this loser.\n\nAnd to one of the previous answers, it is still cheating if you are drunk. Intoxication excuses you from nothing. If you kill someone while drunk driving it is still murder or manslaughter. If you cheat while you are drunk you are still a cheater. Don't make excuses for your crappy behavior.


Any one wanna talk? i hate this research paper! any topic! HA!

Not sure how to ask this. But, why do christian people get offended when someone says Good Luck.  I have told someone this and they responded by saying "we are not lucky we are blessed".  Someone pls explain, as I have no clue as to why this is a bad thing to say.

It is too bad when a so called Christian can't cut someone some slack.  As a Christian, I am blessed, but don't take offence to "good luck."


I just sufferred a divorce.  I am now a single father with custody of my 3 young children.  The lies that I have heard over the years about children being "so resilient, they will bounce back" are patenly not true.  Divorce cripples thier spirits, and puts them in a class of disadvantaged children.  Not having seen their mother in over a year, and bding soooo mad at her is another hurdle.  Time does not heal wounds, it only allows your mind to deal better with the pain that is always constant.  It has been two and a half years, and they still hurt.  The psychobabbelologists are so full of crap, that they are useless.  And they charge so much money that I now, as a single father with no assistance from their mother (not one penny) makes it even more difficult.  Why is divorce still taught as something that is the best option?  Why are there no people who tell the truth any more?

Being a child of divorce myself, I know that it is a painful process for all. But you need to be the hero and help your children recover from the process. Divorce is not the end of the world. There are kids out there who have no parents so your children are lucky and you should be lucky to have custody of them. \nMy brother and I were angry at my father for my parents' divorce. We didn't see him during our adolescent years cause my mother poisoned our view of him. We lost about five years and we hated him and really had no idea why. When I was 18, I started to contact my father behind my mother's back cause I needed him in my life. It's almost 15 years later and my brother and I keep constant contact with our father. You see, time really does heal if you help along the way. I'm still learning and forgive and understand my father's reason's for leaving. I grew up to realize that he wanted to keep contact with us but we shut him out.\nChildren see things differently than adults. It takes the experiences of adulthood to understand the motives of the parents. Adult problems are adult problems and very difficult for a child to understand. And sometimes children blame themselves for the divorce.\n\nDon't let your children do the same to your wife. Teach your children the reasons why you fell in love with her in the first place. Tell them about times she did special things for them. Just give them something so they can learn to forgive her in their hearts. Forgiveness is the best medicine for moving on with their lives. Holding a grudge will just make your children grow up angry and resentful. Your children just feel rejected and their spirits need to be revived. Letting them dwell on this without proper counselling can make them depressed. I was a depressed teenager and you don't want that on your hands.  \nI don't think that divorce is taught as the best option unless the situation cannot be fixed. \nAs for child support, perhaps you should get the courts involved. It is not fair that you are put in this situation but you are the only one they have now and you must be the one to bring up their spirits. Teach them new things. Take them on outings like camping, the beach or the park. Get them active and enjoying life. \nThe last thing you want is for your children to resent you when they are older cause you didn't act on this.\nAs for disadvantaged, I don't think your children are. In the 80s when I was the only child in my class with divorced parents, that was disadvantaged. I was teased and belittled cause of it. Today it's common and there are more support systems out there. And you have the choice to allow them to be disadvantaged in life by not acting on the problem.\nJust know that your children need you and you are lucky to have each other. And show them the good things that life has to offer them. Good luck!


I remember hearing about fifteen years ago something like, "If gasoline ever gets to be more than X dollars per gallon, it will become profitable to start extracting oil from shale."  What is the value of X?

I attended a very interesting lecture by the Governor of Montana.  He was talking about the development of oil shales (which Montana has an enormous amount of).  He said that the development of oil shales became economically feasible when the price of oil exceed $40/barrel.\n\nThe advantages to fuel refined from oil shales are the cleanliness of the product.  The process (developed by the Germans during WW-II) not only refines the oil products, but it also strips out the mercury, sulfides, and arsenide's from the final product.  This would vastly reduce water and air pollution.\n\nLast I heard, the state of Montana is in the process of building their own refinery at this time.\n\nEstimates of the reserves available in the northwest US and western Canada are factors of magnitude greater than the amount of oil in all of the middle east.  It would be great to develop this asset and be able to tell the Saudis and Hugo Chavez in Venezuela to go pound sand.


They showed the special Say Goodnite Gracie before the series finale of Will and Grace. Is that going to be on the finale dvd? Or any dvd?

The commercial I saw said you could buy the "finale" on dvd. Nothing was mentioned about the special. (If it was included on the finale dvd I would think it would have been mentioned on the commercial.)


Women in america are judged too much on how they look, i;m beautiful but I have a lot more to offer, I hate women who are stripers models getting paid on how you look can't women do more for there country then to get a man off, i mean come on girls we have the power men would be no where if it wasn't for women.  We should take more control and try to to be a sex symbol but an itellegent strong human being.

the media Mongols are a bunch over sex-crazy bozos, if the world was really an equality for all sexes zone it would never be like that. women are put under a lot of pressure to look a certain way just so some man can have a wet dream.


what is the difference on the web addresses like .net,.com, .org? Is there more?

It was originally designed so you could determine what type of website it was by the name.  Now that these are up for sale among the public, .com, .net, and .org have lost that meaning.\n\n.com stands for commercial \n\n.net stands for Network - it was originally used by Internet Service Providers\n\n.org - organization\n\nThere is also .gov (government), .edu (education), and probably a few others I can't think of right now.

Actex has good ones, as did BPP but I can't seem to find any on their website.  BPP had the information for the first course free, but that was a while ago.


to 12. The priests are upset, beacuse Mohammed by example married a girl who was 9. \n\nWhat do think, 9 or 12?

I would say ask their father ! But, at LEAST 21 in your guy's case.


I know without a doubt that this one girl likes me, and I have liked her for a long time. I kept it a secret because of our age difference because I am graduating college and she is graduating high school. She is almost 18, but I have several things in my way.\n\nHer parents want her to be a career girl and not date right now. At least, I think this is the case based on how she talks. I want to see her go to college and succeed also because she got me interested in acting and I want to see her fulfill her dreams. Over the years of our friendship, we have a lot of connections where we helped each other in significant ways. We are really close, and I have let her know that I care about her as well. I want our parents' approval on both sides before I go forward, but I am getting to the point where it will have to be soon. She has become incredibly flirtatious lately, and is making very suggestive comments about us being together. WHAT SHOULD I DO????

Two thoughts to consider:\n\nTwo people who like each other (and who aren't separated by extraordinary circumstances) inevitibly hook up.  That's just how love works.  If she wants you, then she'll do what she can to be with you, so don't worry about that.  Let her flirt, and flirt back if you want.\n\nAbout the issue with her parents...\n\nIf she's truly an adult (or ready to be an adult), then she will do what she wants and not just what her parents want.  Letting her parents dictate her love life *would* be a sign of immaturity and lack of independence.\n\nWhat do I think you should do?\n\nDon't even think about what her parents want until you know what she wants.


started to feel unwell not long after.I had lots of tests which confimed i had caught chlamidya..but, as i left it so long, it had made me infertile.He is now telling me that he hasnt cheated ,but he is the only person i have slept with.He is the love of my life and to make matters worse i recently found out he has got another girl pregnant.please help me.what should i do?

I have been in almost the same situation. my bf got his ex gf pregnant while we were on a short break. I went back to him and now the child is almost 3. The ex is CRAZY, wont leave us alone. We have to pay 127 a WEEK in child support, which we cant afford and havent been able to pay the whole 127 a week so my now husband will be going to jail fairly soon. To make matters worse the ex had another son 6 months ago, 10 days before my daughter was born. and is now claiming it is my husbands. SO all I can say IS LEAVE HIM. It will never end. You will be alot more happier without him. ' YOU DONT WANT DRAMA WITH HIS BABIES MAMA'.


What show had a bad theme song, but the show very good?\n\nWhat show had a good theme song, but the show was bad?

A Great Show with a bad theme song/music was M*A*S*H as the song was titled "Suicide Is Painless".\n\nAs I was never into 'Friends' I thought the show was lousy but the theme song was pretty good.


They say pregnant woman makes the flowers and plants withered and dried when watering it. That's why don't watered and feed the plants and flowers as they get died. How true is that?

This superstition has the scientific basis.During those periods a women is suceptibile to infecton as the immunity level of her is at the lowest.She might caught infection from pollen Fungi bacteria Virus while going near plants .because endometrium is totally exposed and forms ideal ground for incubation of an infection.


I know he made many references to God in his speeches, but I don't know which church he attended, if he attended church at all.

He did not attend any churches at all. There was something I read one time about his father's family originally coming from a place in England where there were secret Jews, but I don't think he was Jewish either. He was probably an agnostic like some other 19th century thinkers. Remember he read and thought a lot and probably came to his own conclusions.

My wisdom teeth are coming through at the back and I have been in constant pain with them for over a month now. Any home remedies to try and ease the pain?

There are numbing products available over the counter.  ie Ora Gel, etc.  Ask your pharmacist, which is best.\n\nAlso, be sure to take Motrin.  It is the most effective pain killer for bone/teeth pain, that is available over the counter.  The idea about eating ice sounds good, too!  It will help soothe the inflammation.\n\nYou do need to get in touch with your dentist.  Maybe, he could call you in a prescription, that will do you...until you can get to his office.\n\nI really am sorry, that you are in pain.  I would definitely, get the numbing products and take the Motrin...at the same time.  It should, at least, take the edge off.


when i write in word i want a science border to write on it and look very nice to my pages \nplease if somebody can help me ?

You could just copy a small picture, insert it at the top, either at the corners or all the way across.


First she pinched my nipples and i said what goes around comes around you kno then she did it again does she want me to do it to her?

She wants to know if you would really touch her, if you tell her (keep doing it and I'll do it back to u), most of us will stop. But she might really want you to. try it.


Imagine you are between the age of 7 - 11 (if you really are, please let me know) and need to pick a comic character for a new comic... which of the following would appeal to you more? If possible say why? \n\n1. A rascal who is actualy a genius, but he gets bored with the word he's set and gets into trouble (a little like Malcolm in the Middle) \n\n2. A "perfect prefect" (or hall monitor) who faces loads of rebelious children everyday and has to "set them straight", usually ending up hurt as the outcome. \n\n3. Someone who intends to do good, but it always ends up going wrong and getting himself into trouble. \n\n4. Or the idea of an "Intergalactic Misheif Maker"... who makes trouble all over the cosmos... meeting a variety of aliens etc. \n\n5. The son of a Prime Minister, who always gets into trouble and usually brings his father into it as well... causing global mayhem. \n\nIf you think this is stupid, hehe, sorry - but I really need help for my Media Studies project. THANKS V. MCH

Hey! How about a son of a Prime Minister, who prevents his father from causing global mayhem? ;-)\n\nHe could be like a secret superhero (or a govt. spy or something) unknown to both his father and the world. And you could make his father seem a total buffoon. That would be hilarious and not very far from current world scenarios! What say?\n\nBut of the above mentioned choices, no.5 is undoubtedly the best.


I have been looking forward to this movie since last year.  However, the reviews have been pretty bad.  Should I see the movie anyways?\n\nDoes the fact that I have read the book make the movie more enjoyable or more disappointing?

i saw it this afternoon...great story....not the best delivery...maybe if it weren't ron howard.....although i'm not the biggest fan of his.


Regardless who wins, the winner will more than likely be shirtless.

Conan the Barbarian. Ok first I was going to go with The Punisher, for the obvious reasons... he's a man living the the modern era, and therefore has more advanced technology. From grenades to guns, to bazookas, to anything you want. All that Conan has is him muscles and his sword, which I don't think will be enough to take down The Punisher. Plus he's a very good tactician, nothing goes wrong for Frank Castle, he'd pretty much always win. With all that said, if you are asking who would win in a fist fight, mano a mano, no weapons, no nothing, only poor muscles and brains, then I'll have to give the fight to Conan the Barbarian. Although not as briliant as Frank, his huge power will do all the work he need to do in order for him to win this fight. Frank is a strong man, no doubt about it, but not as strang as Conan. After all, in the old days, the only way your would survive was using your brawns. Anyway, 'nuff said.\n\nWinner: The Punisher (with weapons) / Conan the Barbarian (fist fight)


I've recently downloaded some cute desktop backgrounds and i wanted to delete my previous downloaded then browsed pictures. Their stuck on my lists of display properties with computers own desktop backgrounds.

What context is it used in?  I read this on my CFA studying notes, so please help clarify!

One of the typestages of hybrid financing used in Venture Capital and other Private Equity financing. Usually the company is already profitable and goes into expansion\n\nMezzanine financing is basically debt capital that gives the lender the rights to convert to an ownership or equity interest in the company if the loan is not paid back in time and in full. It is generally subordinated to debt provided by senior lenders such as banks and venture capital companies.\n\nSince mezzanine financing is usually provided to the borrower very quickly with little due diligence on the part of the lender and little or no collateral on the part of the borrower, this type of financing is aggressively priced with the lender seeking a return in the 20-30% range.


do you think it's ok for a christian couple to live together before marriage?

Well are you a christian couple that does not believe in sex before marriage? If so it will be hard. Many people say you should know a person very well before you get married. However studies have shown that people who shack up usually end up not getting married or divorcing when they do. DR. Laura has shacking up as one of the "ten stupid things women do to mess up their lives". But if you feel it need to be done do it. That feeling is coming from god.(or the devil)You should know.Let the relationship progress step by step. It's in the Bible, II Peter 1:6-7, TLB. "Next, learn to put aside your own desires so that you will become patient and godly, gladly letting God have his way with you. This will make possible the next step, which is for you to enjoy other people and to like them, and finally you will grow to love them deeply."


now can i chage the file format or is their a program that i can download


i have yahoo sitebuilder. would like a reply.

You're not going to have a successful site based on free hosting.\n\nThat said, the key to listing well with search engines is twofold: Content in context and links in to content.\n\nWhat that means is:\n\n1. You need lots of copy on your site that mentions the terms you expect people to use when trying to find your site. For example, if you have a site about deep sea fishing, it's not enough to simply state "deep sea fishing" on your site; you want lots of articles abut that subject, including articles that talk about how, where and what kinds of fish.\n\nContent in context -- lots of copy about the search terms you want to list with -- gets you listed in the search engines.\n\n2. You need other Web sites to link to your CONTENT, not your home page. Simple link exchanges don't work. You don't want people linking to your home page, you want them linking to specific pages on your site.\n\nYou want the content on the page of their site that links to your content to be similar to the content they are linking on your site. You also want to get as many links in from popular sites as possible. The better someone else ranks with a search engine, the more you want them to link in to you.\n\nLinks in determine how high you rank on a search engine.

What if everything around you now...\nisn't quite what it seems?\n\nYou could live in this illusion...\nYou could choose to believe...

Sincerely, if the illusion is good probably all would want this illusion to continue and if its bad they would want to get out of it.\nIf you observe it is usually the people who are in one or the other unmanageable trouble who like to believe that life is an illusion.\nThere are very few people who are enjoying this life who would want to lay their eyes on such idea.

I have heard GGSIP University, DU and Amity have good courses. So which is the best? Are there any other good ones? JNU is only for postgraduate courses, right? And I've heard some rumours that a degree from Amity isn't worth much, is that really true?

According to me delhi university is the best university for studying biotech,if you ask me i would suggest you to join delhi univ.


Obviously a retaliation to Bush's 'protection' of Middle East interests. Whats he going to do now? And do you think he underestimated them?

First of all, I'm as a Saudi person think that we don't need the Americana's protection. Therefore, we kicked the US troops from here about four years ago in order to tell the world that we can stand by ourselves and we are not anymore under the US protection. In fact, Saudi Arabia is so important as it plays a major role of politics in the region and known as a peaceful and neutral country.\n\nI think there are great business deals between America and Saudi Arabia as well as other countries but i don't think Saudi would pay one cent to American in order to be protected.\n\nSaudi Arabia has the key either to run the world or shut it down because we all know that it plays a leading role in OPEC and it ranks as the largest exporter country providing 1/3 petrol in the world.\n\nImagine if we just burn the oil here.. would you be able to fly from florida to new york within 2 hours? .. i don't think so .. you may need to buy a bicycle. But for us it won't make much difference you know we are Bedouins and we still have our own camels but i believe that your president will be broadcasted ridding a bike.\n\nfor further discussion\nsaudix@gmail.com

Each day Yahoo! Sports editors edit the rankings for each and every individual player (O-Rank, Season Rank, Last Month Rank, & Last Week Rank). I want to know what time those rankings immediately get updated, so that I can go on the computer at that time and edit my lineup then. If I do it when I get up, the games will already have been started and most of the players will be locked into a position for that day.

in yahoo fantasy  the next day starts at Midnight pacific standard daylight savings time. As far as the stats are concerned...it seems arbitrary as to when they update the stats.i have seen them vary between 5am and noon esdt.


if 5 is added to both the numerator and denomerator the result is 4/17.if 1 is subtracted from both the numerator and denomerator the result is 2/5.find the fraction?

let the fraction be x/y\n(x+5)/(y+5) = 4/17\n=> (x+5)*17 = (y+5)*4\n=> 17x + 85 = 4y + 20\n=> 17x - 4y = -65......(1)\n\n(x-1)/(y-1) = 2/5\n=> (x-1)*5 = (y-1)*2\n=> 5x -5 = 2y -2\n=> 5x-2y = 3....(2)\n\nNow multiply equation (2) by 2 and you get\n10x - 4y = 6....(3)\nNow subtract equation (3) from (1) and you get\n7x = -71\n=> x = -71/7\nSolving for y you get y = -188/7\n\nClearly there are no two whole numbers for which the given conditions are satisfied.


Malaria is a tropical disease caused by a protozoa from the genus Plasmodium (falciparum, ovale, vivax), and transmited by mosquitoes. This disease is some times mortal and is common near wet forests. It causes fever, anemia and headache. There are drugs agains it for many years, but nowadays there is increasing Plasmodiums resistence against there drugs. There is also experimental vaccine, but not yet commercially available.

I always fall asleep during the early hours of\nthe morning.for example anywhere between 4am and\n6am.It doesn't matter if I feel tired at night \ntime I just can't seem to fall asleep.Sometimes \nI will lie there for hours just thinking but I\nnever fall asleep until at least after 4 O'clock.\nIf somehow I do fall asleep early I end up waking\nup through out the night and then I don't feel like\nI got any rest.The problem may just be that my\ndays and nights are mixed up but I would like to\nhear someone elses opinion and advice on how to get \nsleep and feel rested the next day.Any Help?

Your Circadian Rhythm is out of sync.\n\nFirst, you need to shut down ALL electical devices in your room.  No LIGHT whatsoever.\n\nTake a quality Melatonin supplement an hour or so before bed, which should be around 10pm. A nutritionist or health food store should have melatonin.\n\nDo NOT eat past 5pm.  Do not drink past 7pm.\nTry to listen to WHITE NOISE or other relaxing music, or even the rain or ocean CD's you can buy at the store.\n\nIF you have to go to the bathroom at night, DO  NOT  turn on the lights.  The minute your body detects light, your mind's production/usage of melatonin stops.\n\nWhen the sun rises in the morning,  GET UP.  Go outside and stare indirectly at the morning light.  DO this for 20 minutes.  DO this for 2-3 days.  You can do light exercise at this time.  Joga or Stretching and breathing.  This morning routine, will reset your internal clock to your geographic time zone.  This is also a known help for those with jet-lag.\n\nTry these ideas for a week, and see if you make any progress.


And are you able to wake up instantly, or do you have to sort of hover between sleep and wakefulness for a few minutes?

I wake up at 6am everyday, and I usually wake up before my alarm goes off because I hate the sound of it. Some days I'm more awake than others, so on those days I just take it slower than normal.


What would you do better than any president has done?

The President neither has the power to change nor make laws. That is the job of Congress to make and change laws, the Supreme Court can eliminate laws (deem them unconstitutional).\n\nBut to answer your question, I would be a better speaker than the current President.  He is a poor orator.

What is the effect of solar wind on Mercury?(how strong?)

Are you asking what the momentum transfer to Mercury is on average? This should be fun.  I'll walk you through it cause I want to do it myself.  \n\n1) At the Earth right now, (10:30 PM PST on 5/25/2006) the Solar wind has a speed of 377 km/s and a density of 0.8 protons/cm^3. The flux in protons/sec/cm^2 would be these two numbers multiplied together or about 3x10^7 protons per second per cm^2. \n\n2) To first order, the solar wind has a constant velocity, so the flux at Mercury's orbit would simply be the flux here times the ratio of the Earth and Mercury's orbital distances from the sun squared, so 3x10^7*(1AU/.4)^2 = 2x10^8 protons/sec/cm^2\n\n3) Now we find the sq cm of the cross section of Mercury in cm = Pi*(2.4x10^8)^2 5.8 = 2x10^17 cm^2. \n\n4) Multiply that cross section by that proton flux and mercury gets hammered by 4x10^25 protons/sec at 377 km/s.  \n\n5) Multiply those together (turn those km/s into cm/s!) and by the mass of a proton (1.7x10^-24 g) and the force on Mercury from the solar wind is about 2x10^9 dynes or 2x10^2 newtons. This assumes that the protons stick rather than bounce off the surface of the planet (an ideal inelastic collision).\n\n\n6) Divide that by the mass of mercury to find the acceleration exerted on it by the solar wind:\n2x10^2 N/3x10^23 kg = 6x10^-22 m/s^2 .\n\n7) Alas, over the lifetime of the solar system before the sun puffs out and gobbles Mercury (3x10^17 seconds)  Mercury will only experience a delta-v of 2x10^-5 m/s.  Very tiny compared to the orbital velocity of 5x10^4 m/s . 2.5 billion times tinier, in fact. \n\n8) Of course over all those seconds, that adds up to something measurable. 3x10^12 meters, (remember, 1/2 a*t^2) which is 20 AU, and with the sun half dead, Mercury should have been pushed out 1/4 of that amount, or 5 AU. (As a quiz, explain why this calculation does not apply in this circumstance).\n\nNote that all of this assumes the solar wind to be constant over time, which is certainly is not, but I bet step 7 is not more than a factor of 30 off.  Over the lifetime of the solar system, the solar wind will have a negligable (even unmeasurable) impact on Mercury.\n\nThat was fun.  I am going to bed now.


In the course of conversation if somebody comes out with something that could be racist and makes you uncomfortable, how do you respond? If the person is your client or it's an otherwise very temporary relationship, and they are just going to respond with denial and hatefulness for pointing it out, is it even worth it to get into it?

I perosnally believe that giving them a look of disgust is enough or suddenly becomming very blunt...making your relationship (if they are a client) solely professional, then they should get the jist and if they ask you wants wrong, you just tell them that what they said was offensive or inappropriate..\n\nThen again you can't help people's ignorance, they are sometimes just brought up with it, being instiled through generations....it's sad but it's true and they don't even realise they are doing it, but if they aren't told, how can they ever know?

School, huh?\n\nOr do you mean learning things?\nLearning about things you dont even care about isnt that bad, it never hurts to have knowledge and be prepared for things to come. \n\nBut school (as the organisation) sux!\nIts focus is on subjects that prepare you for your work life and many times peoples potential gets strangled by the school system, even guys like Einstein didnt do so hot in school.\n\nThe old romans had a saying:\n\n"Non scholae sed vitae discimus"\nWhich supposedly means: Not for school but for life we learn.\n\nNow think that one over!\nIf you want to get technical about it it also means:\n\nSchool isnt life!\n\nSo there! \nWho needs it :p


y they want 2 know everything about their gf/wife like where she go, whom she meet etc

This is a common fault with males and females,why they do it is because they are interested in your life,or they are too possesive for you.\nA lack of trust is the begiining of any arguement,and asking where/what/who,can be taken the wrong way,when it was just an innocent question.

Hi,\n\nI was wondering: are degrees that are California State Approved, like from Pacific Western University (PWU) in LA worthless in academia (or in private sectors?) or is there some relevance, especially in combination with sound master degrees? PWU is applying now for DETC accreditation, what is the status of this all?\n\nAs I am not living in the USA, things may be different. Or not?\n\nHope to hear from you soon, thanks in advance,\n\nJacques

They are absolutely worthless until they achieve accreditation and ONLY degrees issued during and after the year the institution is accredited will have any worth at all.


It was rumored that Stephen King didn't like Kubrick's vision of the original Shining. So he had it remade. The remake starred Steven Weber, Rebecca DeMornay, and a relative of Mario Van Pebbles. So which was/is better?

I love Jack in the original Shining.  It did stray from the book, a bit, but I still think it was better than the remake.

How will your tone online affect people online?

as ppl spend more time online, they get a better instinct at understanding a "tone" online - so if you are really mean or unfriendly, they can sense it - and if they have mental problems to begin with, they will spend the whole day in a bad mood or feeling sad. So it's best to treat ppl as much as possible as you do in real life.


I want to send a care package to one of my friends, what should i put in it?  I hear he is having a bad time, and I wanna cheer him up.

Something from the comforts of home. When my brother was in the Navy (pre- 9/11) we'd send him care packages filled goofy crap: cereal (like Lucky Charms or something that he loved as a kid), cookies, gum, candy, all kinds of junk food - that's apparently a hot commodity. Letters, cards, stuff like that. Something that would make him smile from either the sheer hilarity of it or be touched that someone thought to do it. \nGood luck!
