I'd like a really funny joke for my website.

A guy took his blonde girl friend to her first football game. They had \ngreat seats right behind their team's bench... After the game, he asked \nher how she liked the experience. \n \n"Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and \nall the big muscles, but I just couldn't understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents." \n \nDumbfounded, her date asked, "What do you mean?" \n \n"Well, I saw them flip a coin and one team got it and then for the rest \nof the game, all they kept screaming was: Get the quarterback! Get the \nquarterback!' Hel-LLLO! It's only 25 cents!"


i am new at this and I have a small understanding of what php and mysql do.  Is there a tutorial online that will guide me through building a database on my website?


please supply any links to info you can provide on if this can happen and how to fix it

no.  There are no reported viruses for the IPOD, as of yet.\n\nHowever as you have said, if you were to tranfer an infected file to ther IPOD and then to the PC, then yes, it could become a carrier.  I am sure it is entirely possible, however any transfer you would make should be caught by a anti-virus program.  Just don't tranfer anything you don't trust to your PC and you should be fine.

y do they always forget important dates unlike us women

We just seem to be, we really do care.  Assuming you are not with a jerk: the main problem is the difference in core values.  Men want and need respect.  Women want and need love.  THEY ARE NOT THE SAME.  Your man may be going out of his way to show you respect, but you don’t recognize his actions for what they are.  At the same time he may be ignoring your love, because he is only tuned into respect…\n\nOn the other hand, some of us just were not raised very well.

hello all, how much a ph.d in management can fetch as salary package in your country? in India it is anything from 2 lac INR p.a. to 10 lac INR p.a.

well a phd only helps you if you want to teach business management really an MBA is just as good really it comes down to how much real worl experience you have and how successful you have been in your career. If you go for a plant manager job or something high up in banking you could make a 100,000 U.S. dollarsz a year that here is really good money but sometimes they require you to have 10 + years experience but not always.

Everytime I save a picture from Yahoo or get one transferred through Yahoo Msgr it goes directly to  wallpaper file. Or should I say, the desktop background list.

does Intelligent Design really believe the earth is only 6000 years old?

Some believers in ID believe the earth is around 6,000 years old. \n\nAre you trying to make a parallel that something can have a designer, but still continue to improve and change under the care of its designer or due to environmental factors? \n\nMyself, I believe in micro evolution. Species adapt within certain parameters because of natural (or not-so-natural) selection. A dog, for instance, can be like a chihuahua or a great dane, but it's still a dog.\n\nI need more convincing to believe in macro evolution. Species changing into other species, etc.

Which rifle is better?  I am interested in accuracy at long range (approx. 400 yds).  I also want to know about ease of use (bolt action, etc.) at a prone shooting position.  I am getting into competitive shooting and need to decide which to buy.

Not much difference, I own them both. For competitive shooting I would probably go with the 308, For hunting big game probably the 30-06, you can get it up to 220 grain for larger animals.


to people still hate the jews?whats wrong with them for people to hate them.

As a Jew, there is nothing wrong with us, no matter what any Anti-Semite might say. The reality is that we have been persecuted as a people for hundreds and thousands of years, and that probably will not change anytime soon. But no matter what lame reason people may give to hate us, we will always be here.

rather, how far can you see before the curvature of the earth hides the distant object?

It depends a lot on how high above the water your eyes are and how tall the distant object is.\n\nThe radius of the Earth at the equator is 6378135 meters.  Assume your eyes are 2 meters above sea-level, and the distant object is at sea-level.\n\nYou have a right triangle, where the longer leg is the radius of the Earth, and the hypotenuse is 6378315 + 2.  The shorter leg is the distance to the horizon.\n\nThe distance to the horizon = √(6378317^2 - 6378315^2) = 5051 meters, or about 3 miles.\n\n\nIf the distant object is 2 meters above sea-level, then it'll disappear when it's another 3 miles past the horizon, or 6 miles from you.

Do you think that those who support capital punishment also support pro-life?  Is this a conflict.  Make other have kids that they cannot take care of and then put them down after the grow up in a bad family.

It's not quite the paradox as BXC believes. And who is "making other kids have kids"?\n  \n  Firstly,pro(for)-life, means they support life at its conception through birth. Some will make exceptions for the health of the unborn or the mother and allow an abortion. And, no one is forcing these "kids" to engage in unprotected sex which usually results in pregnancy. It's a matter of choices that led up to the question of pro-life/pro-choice in the first place.\n\n  Secondly, who creates the "bad family"? Society? Poverty? Government? Poor people as well as rich can be either good or bad. There's plenty of "bad" rich families or individuals. It comes down again to a matter of choices people make.\n\n  Thirdly, pro-life means not only to promote life, but to defend it as well. Hence, pro-lifers are willing to use firearms to defend themselves or protect others against those who would extinguish life without a second thought - murderers.\n\n  And finally, in dealing with murderers who have chosen to extinguish innocent lives for whatever reasons, the death penalty is the ultimate justice. It is used against those who have chosen to go against society's guidelines of living with other people in the most ulitimate way - taking someone else's life from them.\n\n  So, pro-life (for life) and capital punishment (death penalty for criminals who've willingly killed others) are not in conflict with each other at all, but support one another.


Al Qaeda were responsible for 9-11. This is an extreme fundamentalist Islamic group that believes (amongst other things) that Western influence is undermining the very tenants of their religion. They especially despise the US, its support of Israel, its presence in the middle east and the amoral culture it espouses. 9-11 wasn't just targeting our land and people, it was a direct attack on our economic base.

Please! I need to know! And........ how can I get them? :)


There is ample evidence that President Bush and the neocons were planning for a war in Iraq before 9/11. Did the President and his staff use the intelligence they got from their sources properly or make it fit to justify the war in Iraq? 14 of the 19 suicide bombers were Saudi Arabians. Nobody in the government made any assertion that we should bomb Saudi Arabia. The war in Iraq was our choice because of faulty intelligence or faulty use of the intelligence that was at hand.\n   The man who said that Iraq had WMD told us in 2004 that he lied. Shouldn't he have been checked out by the United States? He was not.\n    30,000 Iraqi lives and 2000+ American lives are a high price to pay for a war that is not fought for the right reasons.

Yes, no doubt about it! The "America - a new world Power" mob, oil, and also his showing 'daddy' that he could get Sadam were likely the real reasons.

There are 2 doors, the life door and the death door. There is one guard standing by each door. Those two guards know which door is the life door and which is the death door. However, one of them always tells the truth and the other always tells a lie. There is no way you can identify which door is the life door or the death door. There is no way you can distinguish who is the one telling the truth. The prisoner can only ask one guard one question. Then he needs to choose a door to walk in. If he walks in the death door, then he will be executed. If he walks in the life door, he can have a new life. He did choose the life door and lived. What was the question he asked? How did he choose the door after he got the answer from one of the guards?

one lied, duh. the death door was probably behind the lier. he must have asked an easy question like "what's 2+2" one lied!


yes, any light can.  photosynthesis just requires photons of light at certain wavelengths, and any white light whether 'natural' or 'artificial' contains all wavelengths of light, and so photons of the proper wavelength will reach the plant and allow photosynthesis to occur.  there is nothing special about the photons from sunlight.  if i remember correctly, the wavelength plants need is 680nm for photosystem I and 700nm for photosystemII(or maybe i have that backwards) in the light cycle of photosynthesis... well anyway, you should be fine with any kind of light as long as it's not purely green light(because chlorophyll can not absorb green light, it reflects green light which is why it is green and leaves without pigmentation are green.)

This was something I never really learned in high school and I did not take music theory in college.  I know key signature determines the key but if I write something out in that key signature without any accidentals, how do I know it is in the associated major key, the relative pure  minor key, some other relative key mode like myxolidian or phrygian, or just a string of notes?

There is no "easy" way to tell. Key signatures are purely representative of the Ionic or major key. Any relative modes must be determined by analyzing the phrases and/or chords.\n\nYou're primarily looking for the root where the phrase resolves to (i.e. A in the case of A minor). This goes for jazz and classical music.

I tried to install a game.Message said Wndows NT not supported.I thought I had XP! What's the deal?

Just want to add to what the others have added.  Windows NT is an older Microsoft Operating System (OS).  Windows 2000 and Windows XP have been created using some of NT's network technology.  You can verify what OS your computer is running by checking at the splash screen at startup (not a good way to verify, since the splach screen can be changed).  The best way is to right-click My Computer and select Properties.  That should indicate the correct OS.


If you do not mean it do not say it. Am I right or not?

For some one to say 'I LOVE YOU" they just need to love u. And for marrying u need to think of many things.\nSo the person who says this may actually wanted u to marry but may not be because of circumstances.\nSo there is nothing wrong in expressing the fellings.\nIt may take to marriage or not.\nLove never ends or starts with marriage. But it would be great to marry a girl/boy who loves u and viceversa.


When drops of most liquids dry out they leave a higher concentration of colour on the outside rim compared to inside. Should not the stain that is left behind be equally distributed, or maybe more concentrated near the middle?

All liquids have surface tension, which causes them to stay together (the reason behind bubbles and the reason behind bulged drops). Surface tension is caused by cohesion - attraction between like molecules. When in contact with a surface, water mollecules stick to the surface due to adhesive forces - forces between unlike mollecules. The result is than when a liquid starts to evaporate the outer rim tries to remain attached to the surface. The liquid that is lost in the rim due to evaporation is replensihed by outward flow of liquid from the inner side. The liquid carries solids along with it. When the liuid has fully evaporated it leaves the soilds behind forming the ring.


ever since i got new 19 inch monitor (lcd samsung)  i can't view a complete page in windows with moving my taskbar to get complete page. help\nmartha

Ok, probally you have a low screen resolution. To fix this (for Windows XP, but it is similar to other versions) go to the desktop, right click. Go down to properties and click on it. Then click on the tab "Settings". In the bottom left hand corner, there is a section with screen resolution. Make sure the slider is over to the more side. Click OK. Your screen should flicker and go black for a second. Then come back on. If it dosen't come back on, it will when it goes back to the old resolution (15 seconds).


I asked this question on Jeeves several years ago and never got an answer. Reason for asking- a friend had asked if he could have a pound of twenties for christmas, I've never been able to figure it out. Its gotta be a math thing....

Each bill weighs one gram (I actually weighed a 1, 10, and 20), no matter what demonination. There are 454 grams in a pound. So it would take 454, 20 dollar bills, or $9,080. Also the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing agrees with this calculation, check out the link.

I seem to not want to be around people and can you tell me what can I do, because I seem to not what this pregnacy.

I don't know about the being pregnant part, but as for being off meds and managing, I do know how difficult that can be. I suggest going to support groups, finding other pregnant women with bipolar to talk to. Can help you feel more "normal" if they share that they're having the same thoughts and feelings as you. I'm a strong believer in therapy and meds as joint treatment. So if you're off meds, I'd make sure to do more therapy. I'm bipolar and take seroquel, effexor and lamictal. I'm going to try to have a baby in the upcoming year. So I'll probably have to go off the meds then. I hope it's not too bad, and I'm planning to talk to my friends/family up front about how much I'll be relying on them for support. I wish you the best and hope this helps a little.

I have read an old book that would be a great Speilberg/Lucus movie. The author is dead but I am sure someone has the rights to his books.   \n\nTo be compensated for my suggestion, should I consult a lawyer?

Note:  This answer treats the question as a hypothetical.  No one can give you legal advice unless s/he is a lawyer licensed to practice in the jurisdiction applicable to your question.\n\nSomeone cannot retain a copyright or patent in an idea.  An idea (such as "make a movie out of this book") is not intellectual property that can be protected.  So even if someone retained a lawyer, that person could not form any basis on which to be compensated --the person could get a lawyer and try to get a company to sign that they will not follow up on the idea without paying the person -- but they would not be obligated to pay the person anything if they did choose to pursue the movie.\n\nEnding Note:  Giving legal advice is severly restricted by law.  Practicing law without a license is illegal. This is not meant to be legal advice.  I am assuming you are talking hypothetically.  If you did have a real question and this wasn't hypothetical, you need to talk to an attorney about your legal options.  If you actually have an idea for a movie, ignore my advice as well as anyone else who answered this question, and consult an attorney.

"Things we will never know!"  If there are 100 Billion + galaxies in the universe, there would be an almost un-countable number of stars and possibly planets.  It would seem conceivable that another planet would be in the right place to evolve life, even if it were only 1 in a billion chance there still could be 1000's.  If another life form would have evolved for 1 Million years (and manage to survive) they would be so advanced wouldn't we see them as some form of god-like creature?

Perhaps we would preceive them as we do aliens and UFOs today....people want proof...they can't always have it...eventually we will be awaked to the reality of the universe and our existance here..just give it time..our primitive thoughts can't yet understand our existance.


It seems like this computer starts slowing down immediately after booting it up. I might have 5 to 10 minutes of operating it at a speed that is somewhat acceptable. I tried an antivirus program, but it ran for so long that the computer slowed down before it finished. I'm looking for a way to get rid of the problem in the short time window the computer operates.

You may have spyware or malware. There are alot of unwanted roug software out on the internet the best thing to do is just reinstall your OS if computer is really infected. But for day to day removal try ad-aware http://www.lavasoft.com or Windows Spyware removal tool http://www.microsoft.com. These tools are good but when a computer has been infected for awhile these tools may be prevented from working by the spyware.


Is it so difficult to look around for the possibility of getting another candidate on the ballot?

Then again, if they're both evil, why vote at all? Better to look for a third party you can get behind or simply vote for yourself. If you vote for the dem, you'll get more of the same -- and they will never even know why you voted for 'em. If you vote for the repub, you'll get more the the same -- and they will never even know why you voted for 'em. Vote for the Libertarian, I say, and you get a candidate who will protect your rights (and that, after all, is the only purpose of a govt: to protect your rights).


I plan to purchase a RAM upgrade from Dell, but if it doesn't improve my notebook's performace, will I be able to return it without too much hassle?

Maybe, depending on their customer service reps. Their policy though is to charge a restocking fee: "Restocking Fees: Unless the product is defective or the return is a direct result of a Dell error, a restocking fee of 15% may be charged on hardware, accessories, peripherals, parts and unopened software still in its/their sealed package, and on software that has not been downloaded if the software is delivered electronically."

My ex bf is going to court tomorrow. He's getting in trouble for attempting to purchase over 300 grams of cocaine. His phone has been tapped, and we have been talking. I knew what he was doing, and also lived with him. Now they want me to go to court with him...I find that suspicous. What are the chances they are going to try and charge me with something too?

Unfortunately, if you know that someone is doing something wrong and fail to do nothing about it, you can also be charged with a crime. I suggest taking a look at http://www.findlaw.com for information.


i need to set up set up a network server for your computer to run off of.  can u do that with a external hard drive?

depends on what you mean by *server* and what you want it to do.  Very few ordinary people will need a server, however if all you want to do is sharing files between two or more computers, you can add a hard drive to one of your computers and "share" which is possible in both Windows and Linux as relatively simple operations.\n\nOne thing to make sure is that you should never turn off the power to your *server* as it would stop serving.   If that troubles you you can buy out-of-the-box "network disks" or "network storage" which are in fact a small computer with a disk drive attached.\n\nFor more complex server configurations such as email servers, or web servers for web pages you are better of trying to establish what your internet service provider is offering.


Fluorescent lights tend to burn out when they are turned on. The rule of thumb used to be that it was cheaper - long term - to leave them on if they were likely to be turned back on within 90 minutes. This included the cost of electricity used to either leave them burning or to re-start the light bulb.

How do they differ? Please provide an example / location.

Geologists classify volcanoes in following ways:\n\nCinder cones are the simplest type of volcano. They are built from particles and blobs of congealed lava ejected from a single vent. As the gas-charged lava is blown violently into the air, it breaks into small fragments that solidify and fall as cinders around the vent to form a circular or oval cone. Most cinder cones have a bowl-shaped crater at the summit and rarely rise more than a thousand feet or so above their surroundings. Cinder cones are numerous in western North America as well as throughout other volcanic terrains of the world.\n\nSome of the Earth's grandest mountains are composite volcanoes--sometimes called stratovolcanoes. They are typically steep-sided, symmetrical cones of large dimension built of alternating layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, cinders, blocks, and bombs and may rise as much as 8,000 feet above their bases. Some of the most conspicuous and beautiful mountains in the world are composite volcanoes, including Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount Cotopaxi in Ecuador, Mount Shasta in California, Mount Hood in Oregon, and Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier in Washington.\n\nShield volcanoes, the third type of volcano, are built almost entirely of fluid lava flows. Flow after flow pours out in all directions from a central summit vent, or group of vents, building a broad, gently sloping cone of flat, domical shape, with a profile much like that of a warrior's shield. They are built up slowly by the accretion of thousands of highly fluid lava flows called basalt lava that spread widely over great distances, and then cool as thin, gently dipping sheets. Lavas also commonly erupt from vents along fractures (rift zones) that develop on the flanks of the cone. Some of the largest volcanoes in the world are shield volcanoes. In northern California and Oregon, many shield volcanoes have diameters of 3 or 4 miles and heights of 1,500 to 2,000 feet. The Hawaiian Islands are composed of linear chains of these volcanoes including Kilauea and Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii-- two of the world's most active volcanoes.\n\nVolcanic or lava domes are formed by relatively small, bulbous masses of lava too viscous to flow any great distance; consequently, on extrusion, the lava piles over and around its vent. A dome grows largely by expansion from within. As it grows its outer surface cools and hardens, then shatters, spilling loose fragments down its sides. Some domes form craggy knobs or spines over the volcanic vent, whereas others form short, steep-sided lava flows known as "coulees." Volcanic domes commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes. The nearly circular Novarupta Dome that formed during the 1912 eruption of Katmai Volcano, Alaska, measures 800 feet across and 200 feet high.


I am looking to add an ATM machine at one of my locations. Any help would be appreciated.

There are a few popular ATM manufacturers, Dibold and NCR come to mind.  I seem to remember a price of around $50,000.  But of course physical structure can alter that price a lot.  Will it be INSIDE?\n\nBut I think the right way to go about this is to work with a local bank or credit union.  What you'll need to do is convince one of them that this location will generate enough traffic to justify the cost.  Or tell them that you will subsidize the cost.  Maybe you can reduce or eliminate the risk for them, by promising a certain volume of transactions.\n\nBanks and Credit Unions are always looking for "choice spots" for ATMs.  In fact, they may pay you rent for the space!  Get a map of the ATMs around you, and see who does NOT have a presence in that area.  Maybe you can find a mid-sized bank who would be willing to expand their ATM network and put one in, and maybe you can make a few bucks on the rent.\n\nThe banks and credit unions are pros at deploying ATMs, so don't try to figure it out yourself.  Instead, try to figure out who needs you the most, and work with them.\n\nJust a thought.  Good luck!

Please include explanation for "Can everyone learn hypnotism and hypnotise others?"

Hypnotism is a relaxation method through suggestion. The first step of any hypnosis is to relax the physical body and the mind, to slowly remove extraneous thoughts one at a time and to relax the body until it is no longer a concern of the mind.\n\nThis also has the effect of striiping away the barriers we put up in our concious lives. These barriers are very necessary for the amount of information the human mind must perceive every day and process is staggering. But when this wall against the information is removed, the access to what is inside is much greater. This is your hypnotic state.\n\nIn this state, without your inner mind telling you what is appropriate, or logical or right or wrong, it is far easier to be convinced of things we would not normally do. Fore instance pretend we are the opposite sex, or "remember" past lives.\n\nImportant to note, it is NOT possible to hypnotise someone who isn't able to, or willing to give up this intellectual control they have around them. You can not simpley tell a person to be hypnotized, you must suggest it and hope they do so.\n\nStudies on the subject are inconclusive. Partly this is because most information learned while hypnotized can be false. Many past life regressionists have been labeled charlotans as we have found that most of the memories these people catalogue can be duplicated by the therapist leading, suggesting or creating the memory in the session.\n\nYou can learn the methods of hypnotism easily enough, but there is no guarantee that your subject will become so, or that what you discover will be truthful.


all emails and pics are clean.  I use to get all my pics nw none.  HELP

I can think of a couple of things that might be hapening.\n\nFirst, your email account will typically have a maximum attachment size.  If people are trying to send you emails with attachment sizes bigger than your account will allow, then the emails either won't be delivered to you, or they will be delivered without the attachments.  This is becoming a bigger problem as people start sending more pictures at a time, and sending pictures taken with cameras that have greater resolution (and thus greater picture file sizes).  If this is hapenning, then the people sending you emails with photos need to send smaller picture file sizes, fewer picture files, or perhaps not send you picture files at all, but post them up on a photo-sharing website, like Yahoo! Photos (see link below).\n\nSecond, your email account will typically have a maximum storage size.  If your mailbox gets close to filling up, and someone sends you an email bigger than the amount of room you have left in your mailbox, then the email won't be delivered.  If this is hapenning, then you need to clean up your mailbox.  One of the things you can do is find out how to save the attachements from your emails onto the hard drive of your computer, then you can delete those old emails to make room for more.


Please give me some insight on basic trigonometry.

The basic idea behind trigonometry is that once you know the angles of a triangle, you'll know the ratios of the sides of the triangle.  And so if you know one side, you can use trig to find out the two other sides.\n\nSine, cosine, and tangent deal with right triangles.  They tell you the ratios of different pairs of sides in the right triangle.\n\nHere's a brief intro:\nhttp://opera.answers.com/trigonometry

I am considering a home based on-line business. Is it possible for someone to start an adult web-site from their home computer and develope a porfitable business.\nwhere do you start. Where do you get the information needed to start? Where should a person start?

Adult websites aren't much different than others generally speaking.  You have to provide a good or service that people want, and you have to promote it so that people know about your product.  One difference between adult sites and regular sites is that adult sites have been around longer than most traditional sites, that has its good and bad points.  For one, you will face a lot of competion, but on the plus side there are also other sites you can emulate for your business model.  Your best bet would be to look at a service that would handle most of the details for you, while you work on creating the content that will drive your website.  \n\nOne good sign of your profitability is the fact that there are so many websites, if they weren't making money you wouldnt see them around would you?

Well another question down the information highway:\nI have a linksys router in one room and a linkysys wireless router in another room of a office. Anyway how can I find the ssid on the wireless router?\nI took the advice of a previous ssid question, but that did not help because of the above.\nFore most what would I do if I am trying to install a wireless usb adapter on a computer out of the building and that asks me for the ssid when installing the software?

i assume only one of your routers is wireless--ok there are two ways to find the SSID (this means the name of your wireless network that you can name...by default it is called Linksys) on the router. The best way is to open up the router manual and enter the internal IP address of a Linksys router (by default the factory setting is {192.168.1.1}. Type that (without the {}) into your internet explorer toolbar. Then enter your admin username/password that you used when you first installed the network. The default username is "admin." The default password is jus blank. Now once you enter into the settings pages, look for SSID under the wireless setting sections. it should give you the SSID. I suggest changing the SSID from a default "Linksys" to something more personal since a lot neighbors may have "linksys" as theirs.


Thinking about a navy officer program but Im a little out of shape.


I'm talking about the ones that provide millions of email addresses for $30.

I have found the list provided by most cheap (under$200) services are very poor quality. Most of the e-Mail accounts were at one time valid but have been closed for a very long time. Many of the accounts are hotmail and Yahoo which are also opened and closed faster than a windmill spins in a tycoon. Effective e-Mail marketing requires not only valid accounts but it also requires a "filtered" and "targeted" audience.\n\nFiltered: The members of the list have had the opportunity to opt out or get off of the mailing list and have instead chosen to stay listed.\n\nTargeted: The products and services you sell are the products and services people on the list are interested in reading about and buying. You don't want to try to sell dust busters to a list developed by pornography web sites. Selling a dust buster would make better sales from a list developed by Home and Garden web sites.\n\nAsk the list developer what the ratios are. Ratios of valid mail accounts to dropped. Ratio of sales to number of leads provided. Ask what the target audience of the list is. Ask how the list has been developed and how it has been tested. Ask how many copies of the list have been sold and how many more times will they be selling the same list. Ask for a 30 day money back policy or free trial period.

This is referring to invoices and the time it takes clients to pay them. I need a quick way to figure out how far behind the clients are on their accounts.

If you have Microsoft Excel, then put in the following formula:\n\n=NOW()-45\n\nI just did this, and it displayed 10/25/2005 with the current time.\n\n---\n\nImproved answer:\n\nIn Cell A1, put the date the invoice was due (like 10/1/2005)\n\nIn Cell A2, put \n=now()-a1\n\nThen format Cell A2 as General (by clicking on cell A2, and choosing from the Menu "Format/Cells" and then clicking "General")\n\nIn A2 will be displayed the number of days late that this invoice is.  For example, if I put in 10/1/2005 into cell A1, I see in cell A2 "69.60569711" meaning that they are more than 69 days late.\n\nWe can make this answer as complicated as you want!

Supposedly it's a means to lose a fair amount of weight over the course of a few days.  You're sedated and you wake up days later having lost 8-10 pounds.  Real, or just some fictional fantasy that keeps cropping up in various books?

Sounds like some serious wishful thinking to me, combined with some misinterpreted observation.\n\nIf you weigh yourself right before bed and then first thing in the morning, you will find that you've lost a couple of pounds overnight.  However, you'll find by that evening that the weight is back.\n\nMakes it look like the best way to lose weight is to sleep, eh?  But it's just water weight.  You go to bed hydrated, you wake up dehydrated. Bummer.\n\nSleeping for a few days may net you more weight loss, but some of that will be a loss in muscle ton, which will result in making it even harder to lose more weight and a good probability of gaining more weight than you lost.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is to stop trying to lose weight.  Instead, concentrate on improving your health.  Yeah, yeah, exercise and eat right.*  There's a lot of details missing in those four words, but the gist is that any attempt to lose weight that doesn't involve those activities are just ways of screwing your health for looks.  \n\nThe reason that I say stop trying to lose weight?  Weight is too complex a system to control reliably and any method that involves looking at a scale regularly will have a very good chance of just frustrating you to the point of giving up.


We rly need stunts, and cheers for timeout, even some bench cheers would be nice but something the whole sqaud can do with alot of builds.

According to the legend, New York  was founded in 1626 by the Dutch in the southern part of Manhattan Island.  Some schoolbooks, history books, television broadcasts - and down to cigarettes makers -  even say that the founder of New York was named Peter Stuyvesant.\n\nHowever the truth is a bit more complex\n\nIt is in May 1624 that the "Nieu Nederlandt", a ship chartered by the West India Company, arrived in sight of  Manhattan Island. The vessel carried about thirty Belgian families: most of them were Walloons accompanied by a few Flemings.\n\nThe passengers were soon dispersed: after being left on Nut Island (today Governor’s Island), eight men moved quickly to the lower part of Manhattan and erected there a fort -  on the site of the present Battery Park. Four couples and eight men were sent to the Delaware River, where they also built a fort (near the present town of Gloucester, New Jersey). Two families and six men were sent to the Fresh River (now Connecticut), where a small fort was built, on the site of the present city of Hartford. About eighteen families remained on the "Nieu Nederlandt" and proceeded up the Hudson. They finally landed near the present city of Albany (capital of the State of New York).\n\nThose first steps in the colonization of this territory were actually the follow up of a process that started a century earlier.\n\nIt is indeed in 1524 that the French expedition led by the Florentine Giovanni Da Verrazzano discovered the New York bay for the first time. King Francis I being at war with Spain, the information was sent to the Record Office. During the next tens of years, the Spaniards were almost the only ones who showed interest for the New World and exploited its resources. \n\nNew York harbor was visited by Verrazano in 1524, and the Hudson River was first explored by Henry Hudson in 1609. The Dutch settled here permanently in 1624 and for 40 years they ruled over the colony of New Netherland. It was conquered by the English in 1664 and was then named New York in honor of the Duke of York.\n\nFor more details, check the sources below:

In setting up protection on my computer, I have been advised to get a firewall or 2 - when I already have an anti-virus, and two anti-spywares.  1) What is a firewall?  2) What does a firewall do that the others do not do?  3)What is the best commercial (pay) firewall; and what is the best free firewall?

A firewall is very important---if you have Internet Access. Its like a big brick wall with some bricks removed. The allowed programs go through the holes while the viruses and harmful programs bounce of the wall. Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware find programs already in your computer and destroy them, while the firewall keeps them out in the first place. The best firewall is the one that comes with Windows XP. Click on Start, Control Panel, Security Center, Windows Firewall, and On. You should not pay for a firewall because they are not worth it, just use the free one that comes with XP!

From earth, we can see ony one side of the moon. Why's that?\nOn the other hand, the earth rotates in realtion to the sun. Why doesn't the earth behave the same way as the moon and shows only one side to the sun?

I want to add more:\n1) Due to the distance to the Moon relative to the size of our planet, it doesn't really matter from which point on Earth you are looking at our natural satellite. You will see virtually the same part of the surface.\n2) The reason the Moon rotates around its axis at about the same time it rotates around the Earth is because it is tidally locked with the Earth. Tidal lock worked for billions of years to achieve the present effect, but it's still not perfect: the Moon slightly advances or gets behind in its axial rotation relative to its revolution around the Earth. So, over time, we are actually able to see around 57% of its surface, rather than just 50%.\n3) The Earth is not close enought to the Sun to be tidally locked by its gravity (even Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, isn't). So that's why the Sun-Earth relation is different.

With the recent media hype regarding domestic monitoring of certain individuals by the NSA at the current administration's request and only AFTER 9/11 had taken place, why has everyone forgotten about other such instances of domestic monitoring, such as the Aldrich Ames case where Clinton authorized spying on a U.S. citizen without a warrant? \n\nIn a little-remembered debate from 1994, the Clinton administration argued that the president has "inherent authority" to order physical searches — including break-ins at the homes of U.S. citizens — for foreign intelligence purposes without any warrant or permission from any outside body. Even after the administration ultimately agreed with Congress's decision to place the authority to pre-approve such searches in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court, President Clinton still maintained that he had sufficient authority to order such searches on his own.

Because the media has an avowed liberal stance when it comes to such matters; that which they deem newsworthy- and an affront to anything they consider damaging to their agenda- will get front page news and major headlines. Anything they don't want to be noticed by the majority will be hidden in the back pages of the society section, thereby still 'reporting' the news, but not giving it the same prominence it should have had because it didn't push their agenda forward.


I had braces when I was a kid, but it didn't work. It is a pretty big gap and my front teeth are naturally large, so just adding to the tooth to fill in the gap won't work either.

get invisaline..talk to ur dental person..or get braces again! :-D


what are the poisonous substances we use without knowledge in our daily life?

If we knew what poisonous substances we used without knowledge in our daily life, then we wouldn't be using the substances without knowledge that they are poisonous :P


I mean the weather changes, Fall, Spring, Winter, Summer ... so forth.

Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasons\n\nThe ultimate cause of the seasons is the fact that the Earth's axis is not perpendicular to its orbital plane; it deviates by an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees of arc. Thus, at any given time during the summer or winter, one part of the planet is more directly exposed to the rays of the Sun. This exposure alternates as the Earth revolves in its orbit. At any given time, regardless of season, the northern and southern hemispheres experience opposite seasons.\n\nSeasonal weather fluctuations also depend on factors such as proximity to oceans or other large bodies of water, currents in those oceans, El Niño/ENSO and other oceanic cycles, and prevailing winds.\n\nIn the temperate and polar regions, seasons are marked by changes in the amount of sunlight, which in turn often cause cycles of dormancy in plants and hibernation in animals. These effects vary with latitude, and with proximity to bodies of water. For example, the South Pole is in the middle of the continent of Antarctica, and therefore a considerable distance from the moderating influence of the southern oceans. The North Pole is in the Arctic Ocean, and thus its temperature extremes are buffered by the presence of all that water. The result is that the South Pole is consistently colder during the southern winter than the North Pole during the northern winter.\n\nThe cycle of seasons in the polar and temperate zones of one hemisphere is opposite to that in the other. When it is summer in the Northern hemisphere, it is winter in the Southern hemisphere, and vice versa, and when it is spring in the Northern hemisphere it is autumn in the Southern hemisphere, and vice versa.\n\nIn the tropics, there is no noticeable change in the amount of sunlight. However, many regions (famously the northern Indian Ocean) are subject to monsoon rain and wind cycles. Curiously, a study of temperature records over the past 300 years (David Thompson, Science, April 1995) shows that the climatic seasons, and thus the seasonal year, are governed by the anomalistic year rather than the tropical year.


I have had the wrong ideas in my head and think that it has nearly ruined my life.  I am suffering from depression and don't know where to turn.

From this moment on, let go of the past and all the bad experiences, write down your goals and start a new life.


Such as the ones in the desert Southwest of the U.S.

plateau, elevated, level or nearly level portion of the earth's surface, larger in summit area than a mountain and bounded on at least one side by steep slopes, occurring on land or in oceans. Some plateaus, such as the Deccan of India and the Columbia Plateau of the NW United States, are basaltic and were formed as the result of a succession of lava flows covering hundreds of thousands of square miles that built up the land surface. Others are the result of upward folding; still others have been left elevated by the erosion of adjacent lands. Plateaus, like all elevated regions, are subject to dissection by erosion, which removes greater amounts of the upland surface. Low plateaus are often agricultural regions, while high plateaus are usually fit chiefly for stock grazing. Many of the world's high plateaus are deserts. Other notable plateaus are the Colorado Plateau of the W United States, the Bolivian plateau in South America, and the plateaus of Anatolia, Arabia, Iran, and the Tibet region of China.\n\nInfo from Wikipedia:\nIn geology and earth science, a plateau (alternatively spelt in a false French spelling plâteau, the real spelling in French being plateau) is an area of highland, usually consisting of relatively flat open country if the uplift was recent in geologic history. Plateaus (or plâteaux), like mesas and buttes, are formed when land has been uplifted by tectonic activity and then eroded by wind or water. Flat-topped, sheer-sided plateaus, like the tepuis of Guiana, are formed when a section of land is uplifted that is topped with a layer of particularly resistant rock, and underlain by softer rock.\n\nPlateau is also used to describe undersea geologic formations. Some undersea plateaus, like the Seychelles plateau, are fragments of continental crust that lie separate from continents; they are analogous to continental shelves, but without the continents. Some, like the Seychelles, have peaks that rise from the sea as islands; others rest entirely below the surface. Other undersea plateaus were formed by outpourings of flood basalts, and were never associated with continents; the vast Ontong Jaya Plateau of the western Pacific is an example of such.


Getting Adsense ads onto the Sidebar of my Wordpress blog (http://hawkeye.weblogs.us) was easy, but I cannot find anyway to do this on the Individual Archive pages

Edit your template file.\nIf you have sidebar.php template, place your ad code (as it is given to you by google) within that file, and it should show up on all pages.  Do NOT enclose it in "if post" or "if main" type of tags.\n\nIf you have done this, already, check your post.php file, it may have its own sidebar.  Find the appropriate location, and add the ad code, there.


Do they ever explain?  (Are they setting us up for a sequel??? hehe)

I assume you've only seen the movie.  After her sister ran away, she went back to the fishing village that they came from.  Finding mother and father dead she had no place to stay there and ran away with the guy she had been seeing before they were taken from their home, Mr. Tanaka's (the guy who suggested the girls be sold) assistant's son.  Sayuri learns this in the letter from Mr. Tanaka that came with the altar tablets from her parents.\n\nI don't think there will be a sequel as Sayuri pretty much resigned that she would never see her sister again, and she really wasn't mentioned after we learned this.  After running away, her sister would've been very poor and without the capability to be reunited with her.  We can only assume what happened to Satsu and the assisstant's son.


Like has anyone from this shool get full scholarship to attend big universities in the wolrd like HARVARD, YALE, princeton

There are definitely better schools in the area.  Wooton, Whitman, Blair Magnet, Richard Montgomery Magnet, etc all have a higher percentage of students going to the top schools.  Wilson is sorta middle of the road for that region.


ex-if you're doing something you enjoy, 3 hrs. goes right by, but something you don't like, or is boring, 3 hrs. takes forever.How can time be experienced so differently in the same span?

Well, its pretty much as crimsonmoonvc said.\n\nUnlike the spatial dimensions of perception, time is not directly accessable by any sensory organ. We precieve time by the unfolding of the events around us.

Even when Winamp is playing an mp3 from the hard drive, it will suddenly play very slowly if the CD-R reads something on a CD for another program.  It didn't do this when the computer was new (3 months ago), but just started.  instead of ripping CD audio at 18X, it is around 7X now.

It's hard to say what could be the exact cause of the problem, but most problems with speed on a computer somehow tie back to Spyware issues. Many times spyware/adware programs that are running in the background (depending on which type) will try to access all your drives (not only the CD drive, but the HDD as well) and decrease your machine's performance. \n\nThe other possiblity could be a hardware issue, as a technician, I've seen many times data cables go bad or CD motors fail. You could be running out of RAM, Since the machine is only about 3 months old, i doubt very much it's hardware  (but i'd definitely suggest getting the Laser cleaned with a CD laser cleaner). \n\nThe problem is most likely software related (either spyware or a settings issue (like a DMA setting or something)). Either way, since you're more than likely to be under some kind of mfg. warranty, i'd take advantage and call them up, for some kind of support.

I have a broken hard drive. When it boots, it seems that the hard drive has not enough power to rotate. It attempts to start rotation twice, then it becomes silent. Then, the green LED on the harddrive board goes off. Is there anyway to restore my data? Thanks!

Yes your data will always be there even if the computer is dead . The best way to check this out is go to Best Buy and bring your harddrive into Geek Squad because there pro's at that stuff. It only cost 60$ ( i think lol ) and they first run a diagnosis to find out what's really wrong with it. But yah it will still be there what you can also do if the computer is dead you can go back to best buy and get the Geek Squad to put your old info, or any thing that you want from your broken comp, to your new comp. Easy as that.

If so, how do you do it?\nAnd, what should I put on it?

128 Mb is not much to use for a modern OS.  You might try some of the Linux distrobutions, some are made just for this purpose.  Since thumb drives are infinately erasable and re-usable.  Try these, or google for more.  It chould be fun.


Microsoft Live Mail\nYahoo Mail Ajax\nGmail

probably gmail. 2GB of space, great search features, fast, and you can use it with a POP client.\n\nI use yahoo mail, but only because that's what I've had forever. not really worth it to switch at this point. the Ajax thing is cool, but doesn't work on all browsers.

I have a few freebsd boxes at home, one's running 4.10R and another 5.3. Want to upgrade them both to 6.0. What's easiest way to do this? thinking of going through CD-based upgrade of 4.10 system to 5.3 or 5.4, and then upgrading both via CD to 6.0 ISOs. Both are stock setups, no kernel customization. Both have a bunch of ports installed.\n\nThanks,\nMichael

You can use sysinstall > upgrade option, to upgrade using ftp, http or cd-rom. It is not just easy but quite fast also. Always backup data before upgrading system.

I was married for 7 years. My wife found our marriage boring and divorced me 8 years ago. We have a 14 year old daughter. I am still very much in love with my ex-wife (who has since remarried, divorced for a 2nd time, and is now romantically involved with someone else). My ex-wife lives closeby and I see her quite often. We seem to have a very good friendship, but I want more. There is no other woman that I want to be with. Am I being foolish in placing my life on hold awaiting her improbable return?

look sit down with her and tell her what you feel take her on a date not boring one but fun one do something you she will like and if she still dosent want to be with you move on i know and you know that there is a better person and tell your daughter that you tried and if she is not spoiled she will understand. need more advice allarcon88@yahoo.com.


I have a feeling shes seeing another guy but i'm nt sure. Is there a good way of finding out? Where should i look to find answers? I would like to spy but i don't know how, where, and when to do it?

Dont give her too much space, because if you do, thats mostily going to end up bad!\n1. Check her phone: Maybe you could find a number or an SMS that she forgot to delete, pick up the phone instade of her without her knowing.\n2. Check her mail, mostily trash or sent mails, you will surily find something there.\n3.Dont ask her! She will never tell you the truth no matter whats going to happen, so do it without even making her feel you are behind her back.


Probably libertarian.  The republicans are spineless.  I've been disapppointed by them for the last time.


Any attorneys out there...what were some of the gifts you received?

My good friends who passed the bar have received a wide variety of gifts.\nI got my best friend from college a bottle of Macallan 18 year old single malt scotch.  I figured he loves good liquor and single malt has that regal aspect to it.  His parents got a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne.  Someone got him an outrageously fancy pen to use in his office.  I think some relatives helped him buy some suits.\nOne of my lawyer friends got a tattoo of the scales of justice from her boyfriend when she passed.\nI know a guy who got hilarious lawyer-y underwear as well.\nBut I really don't think it matters as long as it's thoughtful.  A lot of the stuff from the top of this is prohibitively expensive.  If you don't have a ton of cash to throw around they'd probably be upset if you went over the top.  \nAnd hell, it doesn't have to be law-related.  Assuming they're not totally stuffy, they're probably quite sick of the law by now (they have to study for months and months).  Just get something fun.  Take him/her out to dinner or out on the town. The sky's the limit.


I've been dealing with hyperhydrosis (excessive sweating in the armpit area) since early high school. My doctor suggested Botox in the underarms. Has anyone tried it? Does it work? Does it hurt?

"Botox is reportedly a favourite with Oscar nominees who don't want to work up a sweat on the red carpet. Some stars have injections in their armpits to paralyse the sweat glands there. This way they can receive their awards knowing they don't have sweaty patches under their arms and hand back their couture outfits unstained."\n-bbc.co.uk\n\n"Hyperhidrosis is a troublesome problem that results in awkward social situations for those that are affected. For example, salesmen with sweaty palms are at a distinct disadvantage. Unfortunately, topical and oral medications, iontophoresis, and surgery have not proven to be efficacious in the majority of patients. In fact surgery can result in compensatory hyperhidrosis in other parts of the body.\n\n"Because the eccrine glands are innervated by sympathetic nerves that use acetylcholine as the neurotransmitter, BOTOX®™ is effective in temporarily reducing or abolishing sweat production in treated areas. Although hyperhidrosis is generally not considered a cosmetic problem, many patients will present to the cosmetic dermatologist for treatment of this embarrassing disorder."\n-derm.net

I hope to sale products, publish newsletters, create some social network websites for my country, some tutoring, buy sale and auction websites, also providing people free+paid personal websites. May be some adult related websites but not explicit porn but educational.\n\nMy Basic requirement is as follows:\n\n5GB Space is Fine\n30-200GB space is fine\nPHP/Perl/MySQL (unlimited) support\n\nSupport of multiple domain name (starter package supports only one domain. to get multiple domain what I need to do/pay?)\n\nSubdomain features \n\nSSL/Shopping Cart\nFTP\nBrowser support\n\nCan anyone suggest the best company?

I've used a number of services, DreamHost is a cut rate but highly functional company that seems pretty good so far for the kinds of sites I've built. They support multiple domain names on a single account without extra charges, which is great.


Just wondering if anyone has had success with this one....I just want to feel better.

It takes time.  First you have to get yourself busy.  If you don't have a full time job, get one now. \nJoin a church or community group and become active there too. Make some new friends along the way. Take some classes at community college. Volunteer at a hospital, home for neglected and abused children, humane society...there are many places needing volunteer help.\n\nIn other words, make yourself a new life.  Become a different person........and in no time at all, you'll find you're happy just being with the person you have become.  Other people are drawn to that and you'll have more friends than you ever dreamed.  \n\nSince you have an ex, I assume you want to have a happier, more secure relationship. It begins with yourself and your way of viewing the world.  Become positive and be willing to try some new things.  \n\nDancing or piano lessons? Do something for yourself that you always kind of wanted to do.\n\nTime and distance help too - but living a full life is really the best answer.\n\nGood luck.  It will happen.

Dogs are called 'man's best friend'!\nSee the encyclopedia article for more details:\nThe dog is a canine mammal of the Order Carnivora. Dogs were first domesticated from wolves at least 12,000 years ago[1] but perhaps as long as 150,000 years ago based on recent genetic fossil evidence and DNA evidence[2]. In this time, the dog has developed into hundreds of breeds with a great degree of variation. For example, heights at the withers range from just a few inches (such as the Chihuahua) to roughly three feet (such as the Irish Wolfhound), and colors range from white to black, with reds, grays (usually called blue), and browns occurring in a tremendous variation of patterns. Dogs, like humans, are highly social animals and pack hunters; this similarity in their overall behavioral design accounts for their trainability, playfulness, and ability to fit into human households and social situations. Dogs fill a variety of roles in human society and are often trained as working dogs. For dogs that do not have traditional jobs, a wide range of dog sports provide the opportunity to exhibit their natural skills. In many countries, the most common and perhaps most important role of dogs is as companions. Dogs have lived with and worked with humans in so many roles that their loyalty has earned them the sobriquet "man's best friend." Conversely, some cultures consider dogs to be unclean. In other cultures, some dogs are used as food.


when i was in middle school i was caught smoking 1 time the princapal started calling me smokey and stinky ha also told the other student's that it was okay to call me these name's the pricapal also called me a failure

I don't know if it is legal or not. It is however not professional at all. As a parent I would be going to the school board with this, as I think that a kid needs to be treated with respect.

I bought one of those dedectors for carbon monixide, which uses 110 voltage.Most outlets are usually located near the floor. My bed is 2 feet off the ground. would I end up being dead before the dedector's alarm sounds.

Carbon monoxide's specific gravity is 0.96 (compared to air which is 1). So it is aprox same wheight. So, no you won't die before it sounds the alarm.\n\nAlso take in account that carbon monoxide may contain warm air so it will rise. Also dont install too close to source or else it might give false readings.\n\nCheck with the Consumer Product Safety Commission for spesific details.


What are the exact answers to the function:\n(arcsin(x)/arccos(x)) = arctan(x)  ?\n\nOne solution is 0, but what is the other?  \nI know the answer is around 0.45011623, but is there any way to express the answer exactly?  \n\nie:  An exact answer would be sqrt(2), while an approximate answer would be 1.414

arcsin(x) is the inverse of sine function.\nSo given a sine value 'x' arcsin(x), gives us\nthe angle theta (say) such that sin(theta)=x.\nSo what we have in the above problem is a\nratio of 2 angles on the left hand side whereas\nwe have an angle on the right hand side of the\nequation. So the question itself is incorrect ?

I'd like to enter these numbers into my GPS so it could lead me to those points. (Assuming that my GPS is not mappable.)

I'll assume you are using paper copies of USGS maps. Maps from other countries may have varied coordinate systems, but most will have latitude and longitude along the borders of the map. You use this to determine the coordinate values for the point you are seeking. There are plastic scales made to fit 7.5 minute USGS maps and other scales, that make this quicker. Of course, if you have some mapping software, you can get the points just by putting your mouse pointer over the spot on the map you want to find. I've carried my laptop to the field just for this purpose at times, but paper doesn't ever have a dead battery. \n\nThis site shows the basic method:\nhttp://gpsscales.com/chapter2.htm

I answered two questions that other people posted, one regarding abortion and the Lacy Peterson law, and one regarding gay marriage. Both questions were removed within a couple of minutes. Are we not allowed to discuss topics other than "how much wood would a woodchuck chuck" on here? Or is opinion really only interesting as long as it doesn't pertain to any serious matters?

Searching the Community Guidlines, I can find no specific prohibition of these topics.  There is a mention in the Usage catagory about prohibiting anything that angers or incites users.  Perhaps they feel those topics are just too polarizing to the public.\n\nIt's also possible (but probably unlikely) that the questioners themselves deleted the questions.  I've included a link to the Community Guidelines for you to review.

Was the new testament jesus's words or the interpretation of his disciples? When did the theology of Jesus came about? who came up with it?

The theology of the trinity developed throughout the first few centuries of Christian history.  The Council of Nicea in 325 officially sanctioned the doctrine.\n\nIn order to answer when the Bible was written, you need to ask which book.  Since most of your discussion seems to be centered on the gospels, we'll use them as our example.  Most scholars believe that the oldest gospel is Mark, and that it was written early in the second half of the first century.\n\nIs the New Testament Jesus' words or the interpretation of his disciples?  The most accurate way to answer that question is probably yes, it would be a combination of both.  As stated earlier, Mark is believed to be the first Gospel written.  Matthew and Luke are believd to be based on Mark and a source of the sayings of Jesus that is now lost to us.  Scholars call this sayings source Q.  John appears to be more independent of the other 3 gospels.  If you want to see what this sayings source might have looked like, look at the Gospel of Thomas, which was not included in the New Testament.\n\nYour last 2 questions about the theology of Jesus also needs to be more specific.  The scholarly term for the study of Jesus is Christology.  It seeks to answer questions about Jesus.  How much of him was God?  How much of him was man?  When did he become divine?  And when did he know it?  Christians have disagreed on the answers to these questions since the time of Jesus.\n\nMany of your questions are the same questions early Christians were asking, and the answers could take up volumes of books.  You can do some searches on Wikipedia as a start


there is this really cute guy.i want to ask him out but too shy.

Don't wait for him to do it -- ask him yourself.\n\nFor the first time, use a 'group' strategy: invite 2-3 other friends along, say to a movie. Make sure they are already attached or not interested in your target. \n\nCall the guy up and say -- 'me and some friends are going to see a movie, wanna come along?'. If he says yes, great. Wear something sexy but not slutty. Sit next to him. Smile a lot. When it's over, say something like 'that was great, we should do it again sometime'. His response will indicate what can/cannot happen next. \n\nGood luck.

Why can I see through my finger, and even touch it while Im seeing through it.

Because you have two eyes that are looking at it from different distances / angles.


God is a spirit without a physical sex. While He is often refered to as a father figure He is also compared to a hen with chicks and a mother with a suckling child. In many languages the word parent is often said fathers. Matthew 23:37 ...how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings...\nThe gender of God is not as important as knowing that He is real and does love us as His children. John 3:16&17. God ripped out a third of His person and sent Him to live on earth as a man. God is not as some people say attempting to send us to Hell, but to save us from it. I'm a mom and I would do anything to save my children and God is the same way.
