Many royal families are pretty inbred. Adam's family and Noah's family were each the only human family on Earth for a period of time, according to the bible.

The Bible, although for some contexts a very reliable historical source, cannot be taken literally in all cases.  That said, it is possible for families to survive many generations of inbreeding if there are minimal genetic mishaps.  One of the most common complications from inbreeding is hemophilia.  While this is often a fatal condition, it is not necessarily deadly and most definitely does not always kill before breeding age.  Therefore, if every generation had enough offspring and those offspring bred before dying from a complication, they could survive inbreeding.\n\nIt is doubtful that a family could survive MANY generations of inbreeding, however, because nature has ways of preventing it.  Genetic diseases are a very effective way to discourage inbreeding in all species.


I love my boyfriend to death and I love his daughter but on Christmas Eve when we had her his ex stayed at our house the whole time watched her open her gifts ate dinner and then insisted on her taking some of the gifts home my boyfriend saw a problem with this but refused to say anything to her what do i do?

speak up, the mother of the child still wants that control she thinks it is her kid and shell do want she wants. there will be lots of problems but always smile to the mom and but you must put your foot down and not let her control you and him. yes they have a child together and that is it. trust me i deal with it all the time. it is not the childs fault though. but you do need to speak up not bossy just say we want the things to stay here for when she is here. and dont invite her over. your going to have to let her go from your lives and let her have her own with the child her and your boyfriend are over and it sounds like she is just trying to hold on to something?...  good luck


Split horizon is a method of preventing a routing loop in a network. The basic principle is simple: Information about the routing for a particular packet is never sent back in the direction from which it was received.\n\nSplit horizon can be achieved by means of a technique called poison reverse. This is the equivalent of route poisoning all possible reverse paths - that is, informing all routers that the path back to the originating node for a particular packet has an infinite metric. Split horizon with poison reverse is more effective than simple split horizon in networks with multiple routing paths, although it affords no improvement over simple split horizon in networks with only one routing path. \n\nRIP for IP, like most distance vector routing protocols, announces its routes in an unsynchronized and unacknowledged manner. This can lead to convergence problems. However, you can enable modifications to the announcement algorithms to reduce convergence time in most situations.\n\nCount-to-Infinity Problem\nThe classic distance vector convergence problem is known as the count-to-infinity problem and is a direct result of the asynchronous announcement scheme. When RIP for IP routers add routes to their routing table, based on routes advertised by other routers, they keep only the best route in the routing table and they update a lower cost route with a higher cost route only if is being announced by the same source as the current lower cost route. In certain situations, as illustrated in Figures 3.1 through 3.5, this causes the count-to-infinity problem.\n\nAssume that the internetwork in Figure 3.1 has converged. For simplicity, assume that the announcements sent by Router 1 on Network 1 and Router 2 on Network 3 are not included.\n\n \nFigure 3.1 Converged Internetwork\n\nNow assume that the link from Router 2 to Network 3 fails and is sensed by Router 2. As shown in Figure 3.2, Router 2 changes the hop count for the route to Network 3 to indicate that it is unreachable, an infinite distance away. For RIP for IP, infinity is 16.\n\n \nFigure 3.2 Link to Network 3 Fails\n\nHowever, before Router 2 can advertise the new hop count to Network 3 in a scheduled announcement, it receives an announcement from Router 1. The Router 1 announcement contains a route to Network 3 which is two hops away. Because two hops away is a better route than 16 hops, Router 2 updates its routing table entry for Network 3, changing it from 16 hops to three hops, as shown in Figure 3.3.\n\n \nFigure 3.3 Router 2 After Receiving Announcement From Router 1\n\nWhen Router 2 announces its new routes, Router 1 notes that Network 3 is available three hops away through Router 2. Because the route to Network 3 on Router 1 was originally learned from Router 2, Router 1 updates its route to Network 3 to four hops. (See Figure 3.4.)\n\n \nFigure 3.4 Router 1 After Receiving Announcement From Router 2\n\nWhen Router 1 announces its new routes, Router 2 notes that Network 3 is available four hops away through Router 1. Because the route to Network 3 on Router 2 was originally learned from Router 1, Router 2 updates its route to Network 3 to five hops. (See Figure 3.5.)\n\n \nFigure 3.5 Router 2 After Receiving Another Announcement from Router 1\n\nThe two routers continue to announce routes to Network 3 with higher and higher hop counts until infinity (16) is reached. Then, Network 3 is considered unreachable and the route to Network 3 is eventually timed out of the routing table. This is known as the count-to-infinity problem.\n\nThe count-to-infinity problem is one of the reasons why the maximum hop count of RIP for IP internetworks is set to 15 (16 for unreachable). Higher maximum hop count values would make the convergence time longer when count-to-infinity occurs. Also note that during the count-to-infinity in the previous example, the route from Router 1 to Network 3 is through Router 2. The route from Router 2 to Network 3 is through Router 1. A routing l


I guess you could say I'm kind of sheltered and don't know anything about drug use. Today I discovered a couple things that were alarming to me. I found several straws cut into pieces about 2 inches long, some had the scoop end like the Slurpee straws do. I also found some kind of device made out of a straw and plastic bottle. There was a hole cut in the side of the bottle and a straw stuck inside of it. I found round pieces of glass, similair to a Christmas ornament, with the raised opening.\n\nI know he used to do drugs when he was in his teens, but says he hasn't done them since. He also used to smoke weed, but stopped last year when I got pregnant, and says he hasn't done it since. He does smoke cigarettes on occasion though, but the things I found didn't look like they were for use of tobacco.\n\nPlease help! I don't know what to do!

hey girl, its alright. the easiest way to find out is to just ask him. use your woman's intuition to judge his response. i got other ways if you're REALLY concerned.


Are there any known conventions on the best way to save beached whales?

Forty five Globicephala melas {pilot whales } beached themselves on Fort George Island Florida back in the winter of 1978. Seven of my trusted Zoo students spent three days pulling them back out to the ocean. We were very tired and we burned out two 200 horse power outboards. BUT we saved about half of the whales......


Google.  It made searching a whole lot easier, especially for finding research matter.  Also with Google Maps, travel has become easier.


They say intelligence reports failed. Is that a stupidity or they wanted to fool everyone including their own people?

I think we always get the answer that is designed to preserve the best possible public image for those in charge.  This was damage control.  Breathe in the ether... now doesn't that feel nice?   yes...


I was a member of this outfit for a month or two, but then withdrew from it, because of their excessive charges.  But, they still keep taking an amount each month, without my authorization, as a service charge.  Can you please help me access their website, so that I can get to the bottom of this?  Thank you very much.\n\nDevon H. Wiens

Don't bother with them. Go to your bank or credit card and tell them IN WRITING that Auction Success is withdrwaing money or making charges without your authorization. You may or may not be able to get your money back, but you should be able to stop the withdrawal.\n\n"In writing" is the key here. You may want to go to your bank with a letter in hand, and let them know you're hand-delivering the necessary notification that someone is accessing your account after you have withdrawn your authorization to do so.\n\nI am not sure if either of these numbers will get you to a human being, but here's what comes up on a search for Auction Success, Provo UT: \n\n# 6dauction.com - (800) 853-7381 - 703 S State St Ste 5, Orem, UT\n# Links4trade - (801) 225-4176 - 560 S State St, Orem, UT\n\nBest of luck.


I am new to computers, I just know little bit of browsing. Please give me your advice. Thank you. May god bless you.

MS Word is not difficult to use.  There are hundreds of books that explain all of the functions.  Also, the Microsoft Office website is a good tool for searching for answers.


My Dad said I couldn't go out tomorrow night with my friends..But I really want to so he said if I could think of anything better for him to take away... Like the internet or whatever... Anyways, I need some suggestions.

Any chores you can offer to do instead?  Or maybe strike a deal that you will make a certain grade in a class....by the time grades come in he will have forgotten...


I don't mean to sound racist or possibly prejudiced, but after reading quite a number of reports of Muslims not happy with a pig logo in an office, they petition and get it removed, oh, an ice cream logo looks like the word Muhammed in arabic, so it must be removed, they want fridays to be public holidays in Britain, they don't want to follow policies in schools and governmental organisations and not wear religious symbols, yet demand special rights - why is it the same everywhere, muslims, especially those overseas, demand special rights, demand anything unislamic removed even if the country isn't even Islamic in the first place.\nShouldn't you abide by a country's law and adapt to their culture, instead of expecting them to adapt to yours? You don't see non-muslims in Muslim country's demanding special rights for their religion.\nSeems to me that religion should be about tolerance. A tolerant person wouldn't care if there was a cross on wherever.. it's just a cross.

I agree. Why do they want to change other people's laws yet if you want to build a temple or church in their country you'll be stoned? It's just not fair at all. You should respect the laws of the land you're in. No I'm not racist...this is not a race issue, we're talking about religion...\nAlso I've noticed in the country I'm in, the terrorists have been granted asylum, they receive benefits from the government, then they use this money to kill people who have accepted them into their society. Where is the right in that. Ok so you don't like the people and you claim they're killing your brothers and sisters at home. Well if you don't like the people who are living near by, how about you don't move next to them.


I have always wondered why people have to study maths for this long, esp. those who are not interested in it at all. Most of us will never care about drawing strange functions, solving their daily problems with the formula of the quadratic equation, nor logarithms and such stuff, except if you are in computing or sth like that. We will forget all these things after leaving high school, and use only basic math such as addition, substraction, multiplication, division and some percentage calculation. I don't want to offend anybody, but sometimes I think that maths lessons are just waste of time....

(Most of the points are already covered by others  \n but...)\n\nLet me start at the begining.\nWhy do you ask that question ?\nIs maths the only subject you have \nto learn for so many years ?\nAre all the other subjects which you have to study\nfor all these years equally useful ?\nAre you asking this question because you are not\ngood at maths or because you are afraid of it ?\n\nI hope thses questions help you in your\nunderstanding.\n\nIn todays world there is hardly a branch of knowledge\nwhere maths is not used. \nMaths is also used extensively in all walks of\nlife. How can people make good investment decisions ?\nCalculate and pay taxes ? \nMake all kinds of estimates ?\nEven in hobbies : right from gardening, painting etc.\none keeps coming across mathematical ideas.\n\nBut the real use of learning maths is: it helps you\nin developing your analytical/thinking skills.\nMaths is the subject thru which one gets introduced\nto Logic during the school days.\n\nFinally, If you are afraid of ( or bored / are weak \nin ) any subject you can assume that you approach\nto that subject is wrong. This could happen due\nto uninspired teaching, badly written text books, or\nweaknesses in understanding the fundamentals of the\nsubject. This can be overcome by seeking help from\nthose who are good at the subject. Also try to read\nmore about background of the subject like the history\nof the subject and read about the famous persons who\nhave made outstanding contributions to it.\nIf you like to solve puzzles of any kind, if you like\ngood arguments, if you like to read detective\nstories, you can be sure that you can learn to\nenjoy maths.\nAll these will help you gain a better insight and\nunderstanding.\n\nDon't worry too much about the usefulness of\nknowledge when you are young. Because this\nmay not always have very straightforward answers.\n( Reminds me of another question: What is the use\nof a baby ? )\n\nFor those who enjoy maths, maths is an endless\nsource of joy.\n\nJust learn to enjoy maths.\n\nWish you good Luck!


Scientology is a system of beliefs, teachings and rituals, originally established as a secular philosophy in 1952 by science-fiction author L. Ron Hubbard, then recharacterized by him in 1953 as an "applied religious philosophy."\n\nScientology is officially represented by the controversial Church of Scientology. The Church presents itself as a non-profit religious organization dedicated to encouraging development of the human spirit. Providing counseling and rehabilitation programs, the Church offers itself as an alternative to psychiatry, which Scientologists believe to be a barbaric and corrupt profession. [1] (http://www.scientology.org/en_US/religion/heritage/pg011.html) Church spokespeople attest that Hubbard's teaching (called "technology" or "tech") has freed them from drug and alcohol addictions, depression, learning disabilities, mental disorders and other problems.\n\nScientology, however, has been the object of many allegations that sharply contradict the Church's self-description. Critics—including officials and the courts of several countries—have characterized the Church of Scientology as an unscrupulous commercial organization; it has often been described not as a religion, but a man-made cult that harasses its critics and exploits its members. Many of the Church's most controversial actions are, critics argue, a direct reflection of Hubbard's Scientology teachings.\n\nOrigins of Scientology\n\nScientology was expanded and reworked from Dianetics [2] (http://www.neuereligion.de/ENG/Wolf/pg6.htm), an earlier system of self-improvement techniques originally set out by Hubbard in the 1950 book, Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. Immediately prior to this work, Hubbard was intensively involved with the occultist Jack Parsons in performing the occult rites developed by Aleister Crowley. Some critics have seen many similarities in Hubbard's writings to the doctrines of Crowley [3] (http://www.xenu.net/archive/lrhbare/lrhbare08.html).\n\nBy the mid-1950s, Hubbard had relegated Dianetics to being a sub-study of Scientology, although it is still promoted and delivered by Scientology organizations. The chief difference between the two is that Dianetics is explicitly secular, focused on the individual's present life and dealing with physical and mental or emotional problems, whereas Scientology adopts a more overtly religious approach [4] (http://victorian.fortunecity.com/finsbury/124/last.htm) focused on dealing with spiritual issues spanning multiple past lives as well as the present day.\n\nHubbard was repeatedly accused of adopting a religious facade for Scientology in order for the organization to maintain tax-exempt status and avoid prosecution for false medical claims; these accusations have dogged the Church of Scientology to the present day, bolstered by numerous accounts from Hubbard's fellow science-fiction authors that on various occasions he stated that the way to get rich was to start a religion [5] (http://www.bible.ca/scientology-1million-start-a-religion.htm).\n\nThe word scientology has a history of its own. Although nowadays associated almost exclusively with Hubbard's work, it was coined by the philologist Alan Upward in 1907 as a synonym for "pseudoscience". [6] (http://www.instinct.org/texts/bluesky/bs3-4.htm) In 1934, the Argentine-German writer Anastasius Nordenholz published a book using the word positively: Scientologie, Wissenschaft von der Beschaffenheit und der Tauglichkeit des Wissens, or Scientology, Science of the Constitution and Usefulness of Knowledge. [7] (http://www.scientologie.de/scientologie/index.htm) Nordenholz's book is a study of consciousness, and its usage of the word is not greatly different from Hubbard's definition, "knowing how to know". However, it is not clear to what extent Hubbard was aware of these earlier usages. The word itself is a pairing of the Latin word sc


I've never had this before.  I don't even have any pets or am around pets. I don't do sports. I do share the towel with my huspand. I thaought something had bit me.  When I showed it to my huspand, he said it was ring worm. I looked it up on the internet because I didn't know what it was.

Only topical antifungal preparations are used to treat ringworm.  The cream must have miconazole or clotrimazole in it. Brand names include Micatin, Tinactin, Monistat, and Lotrimin. Terbinafine cream (Lamisil) is also available without a prescription. If symptoms do not improve after 2 weeks, call your doctor. \nHydrocortisone is only helpful for allergies and inflammation.


thaxton declared bankruptcy   any chance of recovery

Did you buy shares in the company? If teh company is dissolved you will not get any money, as the last people to get any money in a bankrupcy case are the shareholders (Thaxtgon lists debts of $242 million as of Aug. 31, against assets of $206 million). Hopefully there will be a restructured company, in which case you could recover something, albeit priced much lower than their worth prior to Chapter 11.


Why not?  But I found it pretty hard to find someone without their e-mail address and nobody wants to post theirs on their profile.


For anyone who believes the Torah, Bible and Qu'ran as the three monotheistic faiths recognised from Abraham and his sons:\n\nI've heard from alot of my furious Muslim friends about how Israel should give it's land back to the Palestinians, and refuse to call Israel by it's name, but refer to it as 'Palestine'.\nIf this is the case, and they supposedly believe in the Bible, Torah as said in the Qu'ran that it is a 'continuation' of these faiths, why don't they know or believe the story of Moses and how he led the Israelite slaves from slavery in Ancient Egypt, parted the Red Sea and led the people to Israel, Land of the Chosen people, so it was called.\n\nHow does Israel belong to the Palestineans from the religious point-of-view if Moses, a Prophet in the eyes of Islam as well, led the Israelis to what is Present-day Israel?\nThat's what I don't understand.

schneb, on the contrary, 2500 B.C the cannanites from southeast Arab occupied the area and were said to be the first to occupy the land. They were said to be the first to name the area Urusalem i.e. Jerusalem. The first king and religious leader of the tribe was Sadek. It was said that during the time of Sadek, Abraham (a prophet in Islam as well as few other religions) brought Islam to the area.\n\nIt should be understood that for Muslims, the religions of their forefathers' prophets has always been Islam i.e. Adam is a muslim, Abraham is a muslim, Moses is a muslim, King David is a muslim as well as Solomon and Jesus. Mohammed was sent to redirect the faulty that mankind has created in this initially pure religion by altering and mending the books of God i.e. Torah, Bible and Zabur (sorry not sure of the English translation for this particular book). The Quran is, as believed by the muslims, words of God that corrects the amendments as well as bringing the messege of God's One-ness.\n\n2000 B.C. the Amorites (from the same origin as the Cannanites) joined in with the Cannanites followed by the Phonicians that came from the north.\n\nThen only at around 1300-1200 BC, the Philistines race occupied the south of Jerusalem. It is believed that it was around this time that Moses and his followers left ancient Egypt which was then (believed to be) ruled by Ramses II. His followers were said to be of 6000-8000 people. They occupied East of Jerusalem i.e. East of Dead Sea which did put pressure on the Cannanites, the original occupier of that area.\n\nThe Quran doesn;t mention Jerusalem by Jerusalem or by its arabic name,Baitul Maqdis. The Quran refers it by the name of the Holy Mosque within Jerusalem, Masjid Al-Aqsa.\n\nIt was between 1025-586 BC that the Israelites, followers of a few prophets in Islam (different time span), e.g. King David and Solomon, occupied Jerusalem. It was also within this time that the First Temple was built i.e. around 3000 years ago.\n\n586 BC - King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon conquered the Israelites and brought them to Babylon as prisoners of war. It was between this time that the Old Testament was WRITTEN.\n\n539-331 BC - Persian King, Cyrus defeated the babylonians and conquered Jerusalem. He allowed the Israelites brought to  Babylon (above) to come back to Jerusalem.\n\nThe authorities in Jerusalem changed hands quite a few time after that, starting with Alexander the Great of Macedonia, Maccabean Jews, King Titus of Rome (that completely destroyed the Temple and killed many Jewish people in Jerusalem), Uryanus of Rome (prevent a rebellion from Jews at 117-138 AD and almost wiped out the whole Jewish population in Jerusalem) and finally the Byzantine Empire until 636 AD when Muslims under the leadership of Umar Al-Khattab, the 2nd caliph after the life of Mohammed.\n\nThus, it is almost impossible that Jerusalem been a Jewish capital for 3300 years if there were so many empires taking turns to conquer Jerusalem, what more with the likes of mighty Rome.\n\n363 AD, the muslims take over Jerusalem from Byzantine under the Umariyah Peace Treaty. There was no war on that day, as the Byzantine surrendered peacefully.\n\n7th June 1099, the Crusades army took over Jerusalem. 70,000 people were killed despite seeking refuge in mosques. They remained in charge for 91 years.\n\nBetween then and 1187, battles took place between the muslim army lead by Salahuddin Al-Ayubi (Saladin) and the crusades army. A 3 year ceasefire treaty was signed between the 2 parties. But during the early months of 1187, Arnat, one of the generals in the crusade army broke that treaty by ambushing a muslim trade convoy from Egypt to Damascus. Saladin demanded the convoy to be released but Arnat replied synically, "Tell Mohammed to release you all" At that time, Saladin swore to kill Arnat.\n\nMay 1187, Battle of Shufuriyyah between the muslim army and the Crusade army took place to lure the crusade army out of th

i think womens minds are more open into believing things, whether they are supernatural or factual


do you believe that animals, or a certain animal is self aware?

Most definately. Probabaly the most easy way to prove this is to read on animal behavior in the subject of embarassment or anxiousness. Have you ever seen a cat that has tried to jump on top of something and they goof up? Some might lick their paw in a moment of trying to recover grace or run away out of embarassment. I think these reactions are key indicators of animal self-awareness.


what happens if the person has more than 46 chromosomes?

Sure, if a person has an extra copy of Chromosome 21 (trisomy 21) They are mostly likely someone who has Down Syndrome. There are many other instances of extra chromosomeos (Kleinfelder's syndrome, XXY syndrome, etc).


Can someone please explain to us how suction cups work? We're here working in a Cingular store and NEED to know. Thanks!

From Presto Gallery Suction Cups Kids Q&A Page:\n\n"Imagine that everything and everybody on earth is completely surrounded by an ocean of air, which puts pressure on both the inside and outside of everything. When you push a suction cup up against a wall or window, you push out the air inside it, eliminating the pressure inside the suction cup and creating a vacuum which seals the cup tightly to the surface you want it to stick to."


If i shine a beam of light into space, and if no planet, star and blackhole influences it, it should theoratically get back to the sending bouncing off of the edge of the universe, no?

It depends on your opinion on how the universe works. There are many different theories, but I know of none that sugest what the "material" would be for the boundary of the universe. I am a quantum mechanist, thoguh I'm only in middle school, so I will not go off on M-theory and stuff. But, if I were you, I would read up on some of the theories and equations to form your hypothesis. My sugestion is that the universe is expanding at light speed because it is the light that expands the universe. Let me explain; if something, including light, tries to travel to the "boundary" of the universe it would continue forever or until it is blocked. (Because light is affected by gravity, I think it would eventually come to a stop, as in a frozen star, or black hole.) So, there is a boundary, but it always expands as objects try to reach it.

Being an Norwegian and natively speaking Norwegian, I'm being very unsecure on my English.\n\nAnyone with any good tips on how I can generally improve my English and maybe even toss out the dictionary?

The best way to learn english is to first go through a few books for grammitical rules. Then next you build your vocabulary. This can be done by reading a few good books. Finally you need to learn to speak. This is done by carrying out frequent conversations with your friends, relatives and other people. Start using Yahoo! voice chat to talk to people!!

Most people think Java is too slow to be used for a public Web site with high volume triffic. So I wonder what to use: PHP, Perl, Python, or Java? Is Java only for enterprise internal use (traffic is small)?

No I would not use Java, it is really too slow. I would use .NET technologies ASP.NET and C# to develop the site along with an SQL Server database.


I seen this in the paper and was confused, anyone have any clearity for me?

Assuming the author used the traditional definition of "crime against nature," that term refers to sodomy, so an "aggravated crime against nature" would be aggravated sodomy.  Sodomy has also been called buggery, abominable and detestable crime against nature, unnatural offense, unspeakable crime, sodomitry, and crimen innominatum.  Aggravated sodomy is defined as "criminal sodomy that involves force or results in serious bodily injury to the victim in addition to mental injury and emotional distress. - Some laws provide that sodomy involving a minor is automatically aggravated sodomy."

Not real familiar w/ baseball and my friend is goin crazy trying to remember

He was working as a special consultant to Steinbrenner when he was killed in a one-car crash near his home in Fenton, New York on Christmas Day in 1989, aged 61. Martin had been drinking heavily with his friend, William Reedy, who was driving the pick-up at the time of the accident.


My sister was meant to be born on the 21st of Febuary. She, however, decided to make her apearence into the world on Febuary 8th. This means that she was meant to be born a Pisces, but turned out to be an Aquarius. Does this mean that she's more like a Pices than an Aquarius, as that is what 'The Heavens' decided on her to be, or does it just depend on your actual birth date?

Most astrologers believe that the actual birth date is what counts, either through an "imprinting" that occurs when the baby takes its first breath, or through some sort of synchronicity that makes the baby "know" when to come out based on the alignment of the planets.  Presumably having a Caesarean birth would mess everything up if this was the case!\n\nSome research has been done on whether personality can be lined up with the date of conception, but even if it was fruitful the difficulty of determining the correct date would probably make it unpopular.\n\nFinally, note that your moon sign and rising sign are nearly as strong in determining personality as your sun sign.

Hi, \n\nI am Kong, some call me King. But I would give all my kingdom for the love of the blonde who won't love me back. How can I get her to love me?\n\nI made all my moves. I took her out top of empire state building. I washed her underneath tropical rain and waterfalls. \n\nStill she doesn't seem to care. Is it because of who I am? Is it because, I'm a giant gorilla and she's a woman? \n\nI am well hung. Shouldn't that solve the problem? I fear she might be the end of me.\n\nHelp me.

Dear Kong,\n\nInter-species relationships can be so difficult!  If your parents are okay with it, hers may not be.  Your friends don't like to hang out with her friends.  And the cultural and religious differences; we won't even go there!\n\nWake up and smell the coffee, Kong.  Would you be happy living in the 'burbs, mowing the grass, taking the kids to soccer?  Would you feel like a king then?  (What if kids aren't even possible?  Would you be satisfied with adoption?  Would she?)\n\nKong, it may hurt now, but parting ways will be best for you in the long run.  Why don't you go down to the zoo tonight and see if you can't pick up a cute lady belonging to your own species.  You'll be glad you did.\n\nSincerely,\n\nAnn Landers


Quit kissing strange boys, you don't know where they've been!\n\nBeyond that...make a point to get lots of rest...if its tough to sleep because of the symptoms...treat them...I recommend Nyquil at night....then Dayquil during the day (it won't knock you out).\n\nDrink lots of water, some juices are good. \n\nMy father always suggested hot tadi's:\n\nHot Tea with brandy and honey\n\n....I don't think this helps really, but it will make your throat feel better, and you may, at the least, care less about being sick after a few. \n\nIf it lasts more than 7-10 days...see a Dr. \n\nHope ya get to feelin' better :)

Wouldn't all these massive black holes continually suck in everything around them until everything was contained in a single gigantic black hole?

Correction: when stars "die", they either become a white dwarf (if they're light, where all elements are reduced to primarily iron, which has a lower energy state than anything lighter or heavier--hence, it becomes spent nuclear fuel that cannot react anymore), or a neutron star (as above, but with a mass so great that gravitational forces overwhelm nuclear forces making electron collapse into protons in a single mass), or they can become black holes (if their mass is so very great that all matter is compressed into a singlarity--ie, a point with infite density).  The mass of a black hole is guaged by the degree to which it curves the surrounding space-time continuum.\n\nA white dwarf glows as it is white-hot, but as it cools down, it becomes a brown dwarf, turning dark.\n\nThe debate in astronomy is whether the rate of the universe's expansion is sufficient to keep all black holes from collapsing.  On either end, a break prediction lies: in one scenario, everything forms one big singularity, while in the other, energy fluctations slowly even out until entropy is optimized throughout the universe, resulting in the "heat death" of the universe.


This is done in many Western governments, but not in the US. Is it possible to affect such a change here, and if so, how.

It would require a complete overthrow of the constitution, which would require that 2/3 of both the House and Senate agree to a rather detailed ammendment revising the relevant articles and 3/4 of the states ratify it.\n\nI think the current system is superior to the parliamentary system in that the President's position is more stable than most country's prime minister positions. Since he is the chief executive and commander in chief, it is much more essential that his position is secure until the next election.\n\nMoreover, our constitution already provides for a method of the legislature to remove the President. Because our president's policy is not based on how well the legislature approves of it, a situation which strengthens the separation of powers, a simply vote of no confidence makes no sense. Instead, the president only should be removed for violating the laws, which is already provided for in the impeachment process.


i would love som fun facts about her if possible

She's got a flower named after her.\n\n February 1st is the Feast of St Brigid, which is also (in Ireland) the first day of spring.\n\nSt Brigid is one of the three patron saints of Ireland, together with St Patrick and St Columcille (also known as St Columba). She is much revered, and there are many stories about her. She was a strong and determined woman at a time when Ireland was just becoming Christian.\nShe became the Abbott of a mixed (male / female) monastery, and was made a bishop (see below).\n\nShe is not to be confused with St Birgitta of Sweden.\n\nSt. Brigid (or Bridget, Brighid, Bridgid or Bríd)\nholds a special place for the Irish people. St. Brigid's Day is on February 1st. It is very significant in Dundalk, Co. Louth.\nIt is said that St. Brigid was born just outside Dundalk, in a place called Faughart. http://www.iol.ie/~marist/halo/halobridgid.htm\n\nThere are a number of traditions associated with St. Brigid.\nhttp://www.iol.ie/~marist/halo/halobridgid/bridgidtrads.html\n\nThe St. Brigids Cross\nThe most characteristic and most widespread Irish custom connected with St. Brigid's Eve was the making of the "cros Bríde"or "Bogha Bríde" (St. Brigid's Cross) to invoke protection. The most usual type was very simple in design but of course these were variations - one of these in fact, was adopted as its symbol by Radio Telefís Eireann, the Irish broadcasting service.\nThe making of the crosses was attended with some ceremony.\n\nhttp://www.iol.ie/~marist/halo/halobridgid/images/usual.jpg\n\nIn the southern half of the country the cross was sprinkled with holy waters, hung up above or close to the entrance door with an appropriate prayer but in the northern of the country the ritual was much more elaborate, especially in Sligo, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon, most parts of Ulster and also in the Dundalk area of Co. Louth: One of the family, a girl, representing the Saint leaves the house and when outside knocks three times to gain admittance. She carries rushes in her hands. Each time on knocking she says:\n\n"Teighidh sibh ar bhus nglúna, déaraidh sibh umhlaíocht, agus ligigidh Bríd Bheannachtach isteach".\n(Which means "Go down on your knees, do homage and let Blessed Brigid enter the house").\n\nWhen this has been said for the third time, those inside respond " O tar isteach, tá céad fáilte romhat". (O, Come in, you are a hundred times welcome).\n\nThen she enters and places the rushes on the table. The supper has already been laid out on the table and the following grace is recited by the father and mother:"Beannaigh sinn, a Dhia, beannaigh ár mbiadh agus ár ndeach, is tú a cheannaigh sinn go daor, soar sinn ar gach olc!"(Bless us, O God, bless our food and our drink; it is Thou who has redeemed us at great price, deliver us form all evil!).When the supper was eaten the parents recite a long thanksgiving prayer.\n\nIn explanation of why the crosses were made and put up tradition without hesitation answers 'protection'. Protection against fire, storm and lightening is the most usual reason given but also illness and disease.\n\nLook at more cross types here:\nhttp://www.iol.ie/~marist/halo/halobridgid/bridgiddecor.html\n\n\nThe Candlelight Procession\nOn the eve of St. Brigid's Day, there is a candlelight procession from Faughart graveyard, the location of St. Brigid's Well, past St. Brigid's Shrine up to Kilcurry Church, approximately 3 miles away. Then prayers are said, including the Rosary.\n\nSt. Brigid's Well\n\nThe graveyard in Faughart, just outside Dundalk, Co. Louth,is the location of an old well, normally associated with St. Brigid. It is said that the water in the Well rises on her feast day, February 1st. The graveyard is actually at one of the highest points in the area, and therefore so too is the Well. This makes the myth all the more interesting, as a well normally has located at a low poi


There are several types of first degree murder, all of which are defined by A.R.S. § 13-1105. \n\nThe first definition of first degree murder is causing the death of another person with either the intent or knowledge that the conduct will cause death and with premeditation. Premeditation is often described as 'malice aforethought,' which basically means that you probably considered the consequence of your conduct for at least a second before you committed the act.\n\nThe second definition of first degree murder is causing the death of another person while committing or attempting to commit another crime like sexual conduct with a minor, sexual assault, molestation of a child, various drug-related crimes, kidnapping, burglary, arson, robbery, escape from jail, child abuse, or unlawful flight from a pursuing law enforcement vehicle, or while fleeing from the scene where you committed any of these offenses. \n\nThe third definition of first degree murder is causing the death of a law enforcement officer in the line of duty while intending or knowing that the conduct will cause the officer's death.\n\nAny kind of first degree murder is a class 1 felony and is punishable by death or life imprisonment. In Arizona, the trial jury decides whether the defendant has committed first degree murder. Then the judge holds a separate sentencing hearing to determine the proper sentence. A.R.S. § 13-703 outlines the various 'aggravating' and 'mitigating' factors that the judge must consider in reaching a decision about whether to impose the death penalty. \n\nRecently, the Arizona case State v. Ring went before the United States Supreme Court. The Court decided that Arizona's system of jury-conviction and judge sentencing (which is similar to the system in several other states) is un constitutional. This means that now a jury must find a person guilty of First degree murder, and also approve of the death sentence being given as punishment for the murder.


I have heard that it is a very well-performed TV series. I actually never got the chance to watch it on TV when I WAS in Turkey and it was playing, and now there is no way that I can see it. Please tell me if it will be coming out on DVD or VCD...or if it won't.

yes, a dvd format is planned to be released in the second quarter of 2006 !


Check it out they take out any "potty" questions

Hmm... I'm not so sure I agree - I've seen at least two questions today related to dogs bodily functions. It even has the word *gasp* ... poop.


As a tribute to all those innocent lives that were lost not only on that day but, in the War on terror fighting for their country.

Consider this - what do you do on November 11th to honor those veterans who fought to defend this country?\n\nWhat do you do on the first Monday in September to honor those who labor in this country?\n\nWhat do you do on the last Monday in May to honor those who gave their lives fighting for this country?\n\nIf you're anything like me (or the vast majority of Americans) you don't really do anything special.\n\nWhile I'm not saying that the attacks on September 11th were not horific and terrible, odds are that in a few years September 11th would turn into another holiday that goes largely uncelebrated and Americans use as another day off.


This is the reason why I opted to go to 'Hot Mail'\nbecause my yahoo mail account is screwed up by\nwhoever.  I can't send out mail.\n\nI tried notifying you through help in Yahoo..twice and nothing was done.  Other than that who gives a\ndamn.

When I pay something online via credit card or transfer from a bank account, is it really safe to do so?

it would be very hard for someone to see that data while it is going to the "bank" server, but do remember that just because it says "secure" does not mean you are 100% safe, if their is a keylogger on your system, it would record all the data, but in general i would agree that most sites are safe, you i would think have more risk taking money from a cash machine than online,


I have a boyfriend who's agnostic and my parents are not okay with a Christian person going out with some who's not. I don't see anything wrong with this but how do I reason with them?

You don't.  This is one of those things that you have to decide.  If you like this guy, go out with him.  It won't be easy, especialy if you want to remain an active member of your Church Family.  Life ahead of you will be filled with choices that your parents don't want you to have to make.


If so, Please describe how it could be done. Thanks.

A Tesla coil can theoretically be built to store any resonance of energy. There are lots of great Tesla coil sites to teach you how to go it. Be careful, it can kill you easy enough, and damage your hearing even easier. As a Tesla coil releases it's energy it creates a very loud thunderclasp. Always wear ear protection. ALWAYS MAKE SAFETY YOUR FIRST PRIORITY. Tesla coils are dangerous.

For instance, H2O takes times to cool to the ambient temp and vice versa about heat.  What is the name of this principle?  Please explain it in more detail.

You're probably talking about the thermal conductivity of materials, which is defined as the ability of bodies to conduct heat through them. Water is not such a great conductor of heat, which means it will take long for it to conduct heat - either to heat itself up, or give out heat.

completely depends on the person listing to the music someone not exposed to the words yeah it would influence ya i bet but other than that id say no


through the moive the case of Sam Sweat and at the end of the moive he says "someone has to kill the baby sitter what doest it mean

It means that the TV was his babysitter because his mom would go out and leave him to watch TV all the time so when he falls on the TV source he's actually "killing the babysitter" to all of the kids that had to go through what he did.  It's a metaphor.


ej: regular salt: NaCl.....  Sodium+Chlorine

Diet Salt, Depending on your diet of course is normaly Potassium Cloride. This salt goes by many names, light salt, reduced sodium, salt substitute.  The REASON that its diet salt is chemistry based.  The Sodium in regular salt causes you to retain water. The water retention causes two things that I know of offhand.. The first is your blood pressure goes up because your blood has more water hence more volume. The second effect is because you have more water in you, you weigh more.  Simply put every gallon of water is 8.8 LBS, its pointless weight loss unless you need to fit that darn pair of jeans or something, but that doesnt stop people who dont know its true effects from buying it.


I watched the movie two months ago and I managed to go the entire time without laughing

dude, i'm totally there with you.  i watched it 'cause everyone raved about Napolean.  i just did not get it.  i really wanted to like it, but it was painful to watch. (so glad i'm not the only one who thought it was trash.)\n\nbut speaking of trash... if you want to watch a HILAROUS show, the TV show "my name is earl" is totally on the money.  features dysfunctional, marginalized characters (though they're clueless to the fact they're outside the norm) who are really, really funny. \nhttp://tv.yahoo.com/tvpdb?d=tvi&cf=rl&id=1808685176&


Did wolves turn into frogs, which turned into tadpoles, which turned into whales, or was there a temporary stint as a fern in there somewhere?  I'm actually looking for the evolutionary path of whales... an explanation about how these big mammals came to have their nostrils on their back.

Believe it or not, the hippopotamus's closest living relatives on Earth are the whales. \n\nThe exact evolutionary path isn't known, but the ancestor of both whales and hippopotami was definitely a land animal, might have been comfortable in water, and was probably quite a bit more similar to a modern hippo than to a modern whale.\n\nI'll go beyond the scientific evidence for a moment to say that it's not that hard to imagine...  Think of a hippo-like species (already partly aquatic, with  only nostrils and eyes above the water most of the time) evolving to spend more and more time in the water.  Eventually there's no more need for land at all, but there's still a need for air...


I HAD STOMACH CRAMPS BACK CRAMPS, KIDNEYCRAMPS AND WAS IN TERRIBLE PAIN. THE DISCONFORT ALSO MOVED UP INTO MY CHEST. IT IS SEVERE, I DON'T WANT TO HAVE MY GALL BLADDER REMOVED.

Actonel does not commonly cause gallbladder problems, so I doubt they are connected... You likely have gallstones, caused by an imbalance of the bile salts being released by it. These salts can form stones by calcifying. This blocks the passage of bile from the liver into the intestines, which causes a build up of waste inside your body. Without removing the gallbladder, you could die. It is a frequently done operation, and you are putting yourself at very little risk by undergoing the operation.

i just resived a letter from immigration departament and they thold me i shood go for fingerprints because i'm in proces to be deported because i stayd in usa past my viza. thanks.

you can probably file and appeal, but it's too late marry a US citizen. The best you can do if you are looking to stay in the country is seek professional legal advice. Once you are deported you will be entered a black list which prohibits you from reentering the US for at least 10 years

If you connect the brains of two people together would each of them know what the other one is thinking?

The sheer level of intricacy this would take would be astounding.\n\nI'd say that due to neural path differences, the mere act of thinking could cause plenty of trouble to the other part of the brain.  If the surgery were advanced enough to adjust neural pathways to compatibility, not only would this "brain" be altered beyond the original two into an unrecognizable abomination, it would only recognize itself as one entity.\n\nSo theoretically, if this were done in a survivable manner, yes, because it would be one.


I have removed some programs from my computer. However there are still options that appear when I "right-click" my mouse. How do I remove the "right-click" stuff now that they don't work (since there is no program associated with them.)?

The options probably still are inside the registry. It is possible to look them up in the registry and remove them, but this takes a bit experience (fouling up the registry can cause more trouble than this is worth).\n\nTo find the entries, run regedit (if you don't know how, find someone to do all of this for you) and search for the exact wording in the right-click menu. By the path you will be able to decide whether it comes from a software you removed or not.

Looking for suggestions of hobbies for husband/wife to do togetehr, both around 30 years old in Georgia.

Your activity level really drives what you do. Looking for common intrests is the best place to start. Choosing a hobby should be simple. Pick something that you can easily pick up. Complicated hobbies tend to be let downs. \n\nMy wife and I enjoy painting miniture figures for wargames. She doesn't play, but I do. We sit and paint for hours, talking joking and relaxing. Our neighbors ride bikes alot. I knew a couple that made rope by braiding all sorts of different kinds of material.\n\nGood luck to you.


i am currently in the USA, i am an engineer and have an undergraduate in mechanical engineering and i went to  grad school for industrial engineering., didnt complete masters degree though and i would like to know about the details of immigration to canada. any useful websites and other resources would be helpful.

There is a ton of information on the web (see link).  You can apply as a skilled worker, but it takes a lot of time.  If you are a US or Mexican citizen you may be able to get in quicker under the NAFTA rules if you find a job in Canada.


some do and some dont. if the cheerleader is their girlfriend then yeah and if its an annoying stocker then no.they date them because they need to keep up their rep.

A man walks into a pub and sits down at the bar, and simply orders a water. The bartender looks at the man, and then, quickly pulls out a shotgun and points it at the man. The man says "Thank you," and leaves. Why did they behave this way?

The man had the hiccups.  He ordered the water to try and cure it by drinking it quickly.  The bartender noticed his condition and pulled the shotgun to scare the condition out of the man.


I am compiling a list of uses of propaganda by the Bush administration:  Below is my list - can anyone think of more?\n\n\n1)  Paying Armstrong Williams, Maggie Gallagher, and others to shill for  their policies\n\n2)  Paying the Rendon Group almost $100,000,000 to sell the Iraq war\n\n3)  Putting a male escort as a shill in the White House Press Corps\n\n4)  Creating fake new stories and pawning them off as real news (Karen Ryan, for example) - the GAO even ruled this as illegal propaganda\n\n5)  Planting propaganda articles in Iraq newspapers with no US accreditation\n\n\nDoes anyone have any more?  I'm trying to create a comprehensive list.  Thanks!

Any official announcement, release, or utterance of any governmental official made under the direction of the Federal Government should be considered propaganda and should be critically analyzed and taken with a grain of salt.\n\nIt's not just the Bush administration.  The Clinton Administration and all previous administrations stretching back to George Washington's terms.  Government is about exerting control over the people, not about telling the truth, though, at times, the truth is useful in controlling the people.\n\nJust be glad that our government allows us the freedom to write things like I just di.... akk!!


if you consider that such a large and chubby organ would be disadvantegous for surviving, how do you explain the evolution of sumptuous female breasts? \n\ni think most of you think that this is associated with breastfeeding. but many mammals breastfeed too, but they dont have such large organs, right?\n\nwhat is the deal with those nice breasts? can you figure out what is going on?

There is definitely some severe debate going on concerning this issue. Some have proposed women have prominent breasts as the result of natural or sexual selection. Suggesting since women with large breasts are considered more desirable they would have more suitors and as a result reproduce more often. \n\nOthers argue that this concept myopic because its based solely on modern Western society's ideals of what is considered attractive. Those folks would suggest that breast size has seldom been of major importance in most societies. In the majority of societies breasts are just a source of nourishment for infants and young children. \n\nWhereas there is a relatively important argument against the latter argument in favor of the former. It would be difficult to believe that there is some "natural selection" root for the "modern western society" propensity of finding women with large breasts attractive. It would seem unlikely that these sorts of pervasive ideals toward the female form would simply appear out of thin air -- that's giving Playboy a lot of credit I think.\n\nThen minimalistic view of why female breasts become so prominant is that the development of the female breast during puberty is likely the side affect of some biological necessity that is not readily apparent. Perhaps it is simply that human females experience a greater increase in estrogen levels during puberty than do other mammals.\n\nI do have to admit that I like the theory mentioned above about the need for larger to prevent suffococation while breast feeding, however, I would reckon that a major contribution to increased breast size may be the increased fatty content of our diet. This may be an explanation for why past cultures didn't have an affinity toward large breasts, because of the lack of high fat content in their diet, there were few women who displayed large breasts. However, because diet was usually a representation of status, there were many female members of aristocracic classes throughout time who were viewed as the most beautiful women of their day. These women tended to be rather Rubenesque. So, maybe it was already engrained in the human race early on.\n\nSo, it's not well known the mechanism by which female breasts have become more promenent in comparison to other mamals. Which leads me onece again to my soap box: When it comes to biology/evolution, it's impossible to answer much of anything when it comes to "why." Things happen for reasons, but very little of -- if any -- biology happens for a reason. Breasts aren't more prominent in the human species when compared to other mammalian species because of any designed reason. It could be that women with bigger breasts are more likely to mate, or mate more often, than women with smaller breasts, maybe it is our diet, whatever the reason that allows for breast sizes to increase, the genetics that allow for this to happen was determined by hundreds of the thousands -- if not millions -- of years of selective pressures that selected these genes as the most fit. These pressures have altered and molded these genes to their current status.

When she was 17, Laura Bush ran a stop sign, killing a classmate (and possibly former boyfriend) of hers.  The accident took place on a clear night on dry pavement, so there is no "the weather was bad" or "the road was slippery" excuse.\n\nNo drug or alcohol tests were done, and she wasn't even ticketed for running the sign, let alone put in any trouble for vehicular manslaughter or anything like that.\n\nMy question:  Is this common, for someone to cause the death of another in this fashion, while committing a crime (running a sign) and receive absolutely no punishment?

Um people Laura Bush had nothing to do with George W. or any of the other Bush's until 1977. Back in the day before the media got a hold of everything, it was possible that they decided it was a legitimate accident and decided it wasn't worth ruining someone else’s life. Could have been anything, we will never know.

Am I crazy? Next year I want to go back for my masters, buy my first home, get married, pay off my school debts, and get pregnant by next Christmas. It seems totally impossible since I am a first year elementary school teacher. I know of so many people that do things like this, but I just can't see myself ever achieving those goals. How do people do it?

If you cannot see yourself achieving thiese goals, then why stress yourself out to do so? Life has no timelines. No rush to do things before a certain point. Why not plan a few years in advance? Try graduating first. Now, as far as buying a home, thats not a bad idea, my boyfriend and I are still in college and bought a duplex (home as well as investment). Get married after graduating is not a bad idea, depending on how old you are, it might be better to wait. I would wait until working for at least a year or so for the baby so you can have sick leave and vacation built up,  as well as money saved hopefully. Why rush? Why not make it a happy experience? I want a baby badly too, but why make myself miserable and poor by having it now?


if he finds reasons to be in the same room as you or to talk to anyone around you. if he makes eye contact that feels like more than just regular "hey, i am talking to you so i need to look at you." it feels like he is flirting. if he touches you or compliments you. if he invites you to do something with him and/or his friends. if i were you, just ask him in a flirty way like "are you checking me out? am i irresistable to you? (smile smile, wink wink)" and if you are intersted in him, add in something lame like "because i cant stop checking you out. you are just so yummy. do you get that a lot, or am i crazy?" evaluate his response. you'll know. good luck. be brave.


many of my friends have lost someone they love at this time of year. some don't have much of a family to be with, and are alon. some don't say why, but they clearly don't want to be alive at this time of year. and so i know why i don't like x-mas. but i'm finding many that feen the same way. so what % of the UAS don't do x-mas? or dont want to, but feel they have to for some reason or anothr? are you one of them?

x-mass is all about money$$ controlled by corporations. just think about what a big deal thay make out of it. what would happen if thay didnt advertise and boste this money making holiday


I only saw it once, and don't remember what was being advertised.

I saw it a few times on the USA network, and it's for a clothing store.  Haven't seen it in a while.


i want to use kerosene without odour so wish to know how to remove the odour????

Odorless Kerosene (Klean-Heat, Deobase, odorless mineral spirits)\n\n I quote: "This is kerosene that has been "sweetened" with most of its mercaptans (sulfur compound) and aromatics removed.  It supposedly burns cleaner, odorless, with less smoke and soot.  It may also have a narrower molecule range (C9-C12), higher flashpoint than K-1 (125°F or greater  vs. ~100°F) and a much higher price."\n\nYou can buy it here: http://www.msiwix.com/Klean-Heat.htm\n\nYou might try filtering plain kerosene with activated charcoal, which will absorb some of the sulfur impurities. You might also look for a grade of kerosene called 1-k kerosene aka k-1. It is a higher grade.

in the formation of the contract have a point that said "communication of the acceptance" i don't understand about it?

An acceptance must be communicated on a bilateral agreement to be valid, unless the offeror says otherwise.  An acceptance is a manifestation that you intend to be bound by the terms in a deal made in a way   invited or required by the oferor.  If the offeror wants you to sign something that is your acceptance.  However the offeror must be notified of that signing in order for it to be valid.\n\nThe time that this acceptance takes place can also be an issue.  Deoending on the terms of the contract or if you have an option contaract.

I remember reading a fortune cookie many years ago:\n\npolitician: from the greek poly meaning many, and latin tetia meaning head. Ie. many heads, or two faced at least.\n\nCan you be in politics today, without having to say one thing to one group and another to another? Can you have your cake, eat it and fire the bakers?

I don't know is there such thing as a Virgin prostitute.\n\nDoes that answer your question.


It was in a Dilbert.  What does it mean?

ROI. A measure of a corporation's profitability, equal to a fiscal year's income divided by common stock and preferred stock equity plus long-term debt. ROI measures how effectively the firm uses its capital to generate profit; the higher the ROI, the better.


Some of us dont like the way other people are.  Dont be mean, but at least be real about it.

Because They are insecure of who they really are and may not like themselves very much and are afraid others wont accept the real person that that they are.


I got very upset and told them that everthing is true, you can change me and you can't change what I beleive.

Remember that there will always be people or messages that will challenge your beliefs.  If you believe God and in his only Son Jesus Christ in your heart, then nothing or no one can change that.  Don't let them doubt yourself, or even make you angry.  Try to show them how what you believe has affected you, but don't get in a fight.  Most of all, don't let anyone make you doubt your faith.


We covered this in my Contemporary Moral Problems class. It really made me think about it in a different way in that I was kind of oblivious to how it could be abused. I always thought that if someone wanted to end his or her own life, they should be able to do so, especially if they were in any sort of pain. I realize that sucks for the family and friends of that person, but if they really cared about the person, they would understand and at least be there for them. But then you have to think about the Teri Shivos of the world who never mentioned whether or not they would want to be kept alive. The power now lies in the hands of the family and doctors. I think a better question here would be who should be allowed to handle such a decision. That involves an issue of power- a power perhaps no one should have over anyone. That could lead to someone killing another out of spite or even out of some sort of monetary gain. While I completely agree that if someone wants to end their life, they should be able to- but some serious thought needs to go into who should have the power if someone is unable to make that decision for themselves.


My daughter is posted at this time in baghdad and I have been trying to figure the time difference.

why would you not of picked that as your best answer? Its been 3 dang months?


Like when a kid is a year and a half old, and they say 18 months, whats up with that?

Because changes happen so rapidly at that age. If you say your kid is "a year and a half old", you could mean anywhere from 15 months to 23 months old. The difference in ability and development in those two ages is huge!

I was just curious, once I put up a file to be shared on the internet, how fast can it get shared and on average how many people can access it if the file is encouraged to be shared and doesn't break any copyright law?  For instance, if I wanted to put an MP3 of my band up on the web, how many people can I expect to download it within a period of a day, or a week?\n\nWhat about for larger files?  Like, say, I want to upload an hour long video to be shared freely on the internet?  How many people would be able to share it within the span of a day, week, and month if I was using a program like Bittorrent?\n\nI know some of these answers also depend on visibility, so what are the answers for files with no marketing other than word of mouth and files that are marketed using website ads, PPC advertising, etc.? Kind-of like best and worst case scenereo in terms of visibility of the file?\n\nAlso, could you list resources and statistics of file distribution and person-to-person file sharing?

Well since you have your own band you can try this.\nthere is a site called IUMA. it is for unsigned bands and artists wishing to distribute their music freely with public, put your mp3 or video on there and maybe it can answer some of these questions for you.


What are the conditions to determine when that record is OK?

actually the current World Record, awaiting certification from the IAAF, is 59:16, by Kenyan Samuel Wanjiru. It was run at Rotterdam on September 11th of 2005.\n\nAn Eritrean, Zersenay Tadesse, ran 59:05, but the course he ran was not certifiable by the IAAF, and is therefore not considered an official world record.\n\nIn order to qualify as a world record, certain criteria must be met.  Firstly, the finish of the race must be within 30% of the race distance from the start.  This rules out point to point courses. Secondly, the race may not have an altitude drop of more than 1 metre per kilometre.  This is to prevent athletes from running times that may be aided by either wind or a downhill course.


What if a new tax is designated for a specific cause?  Does the 50% rule apply then?

Good question.  The text of the proposition itself does not make any mention of the specific percentage of California state revenues that must go to education (the act provides for monies to go to school districts and community college districts).  Rather, there is a formula:\n\n"SECTION 8. School Funding Priority\n\n(a) From all state revenues there shall first be set apart the monies to be applied by the state for support of the public school system and public institutions of higher education.\n\n(b) Commencing with the 1988-89 fiscal year, the monies to be applied by the state for the support of school districts and community college districts shall be not less than the greater of:\n\n(1) The amount which, as a percentage of the State General Fund revenues which may be appropriated pursuant to Article XIIIB, equals the percentage of such State General Fund revenues appropriated for school districts and community college districts, respectively, in fiscal year 1986-87; or\n\n(2) The amount required to ensure that the total allocations to school districts and community college districts from the State General Fund proceeds of taxes appropriated pursuant to Article XIIIB and allocated local proceeds of taxes shall not be less than the total amount from these sources in the prior year, adjusted for increases in enrollment, and adjusted for changes in the cost of living pursuant to the provisions of Article XIIIB.\n\n(c) The provisions of subdivision (b) of this Section may be suspended for one year by the enactment of an urgency statute pursuant to Section 8 of Article IV, provided that no urgency statute enacted under this subdivision, may be made part of or included within any bill enacted pursuant to Section 12 of Article IV."\n\nA look at newspaper articles published since the passage of Proposition 98 indicate that the percentage fluctuates with state revenue (e.g. in 1997 then Governor Pete Wilson maintained that Proposition 98 mandated that 60% of all spending go to schools -- see San Jose Mercury, 1/13/97).  Also, in an editorial on 4/28/97 the L.A. Daily News highlights how school spending can decline precipitously during economic downturns.


I need some really good supplement names to strengthen my muscles. I exercise regularly and I want a steady growth of muscles, with nice assertive cuts on my body. I dont want bulky arms or chest, just ninza style sculpted body.

I'll share my own personal experince with you, use muscle building supplements with extreme caution if you must!! The companies that manufacture them have become unscrupulous and they are only keen on making money. They'll put anything in those supplements to make you blow up in no time without any regard to their side effects and your health. And am not talking about just steroids, supplements too!!  Right now am battling high blood pressure and high cholesterol as a result of using Nitro Tech, a leading brand name in the protein shake industry!! In my opinion training on natural food is the best way to go if you are only keen on sculpting and toning up your muscles. Eat foods high in protein but at the same time consume red meat and dairy products sparingly. The best source of healthy protein is chicken, fish (white meat) and plant proteins such as soy beans. Ensure you take in a lot fluids too especially water and home made juices! A lot of bodybuilders really go overbaord with the protein intake and from my experience that's really an overkill. A balanced diet with plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables and high quality carbs such as oats, wholewheat bread, baked potatoes and muesli will do your body a lot of good. Get yourself a health magazine e.g Muscle and Fitness provides some very good insights on a good nutritional plan but in my opinion stay away from the supplements as tempting as they seem. Some of them don't even have patents to back them yet and for that reason they should be labelled as "poison" because that's what they are. Some of the ingredients in many of those supplements are so potent and powerful, they scar and clog up your ateries in no time! This to me beats the whole purpose of body building in the first place which is to maintain good health and fitness. For me even though I am very fit, I lost out on my health. Learn from my mistake and don't misconstrue one for the other because they belong together; Fitness and Health. I hope I was of help. Good luck.

im finding it hard to make a fix schedule in terms of my study time. can you help me,please?

Well, you must pay attention to what you do after school. How many MINUTES (not hours) you spend, for example, watching TV, eating, talking by phone, chatting, etc... Then, you must get to know yourself about your peak study hours. Mine are early in the morning 4:00 am - 6:00 am; when I was in college I studied for tests at that time; for other stuff, like homework, I did them right the same day where it was assigned (not more than 3 days after that).


Primarily it is Protestant catholic bashers who believe this, though there is a tradition of this belief in the Greek Orthodox church.  A fameous, scandalous telling of the tale (titled "Pope Joan") was translated to English by Lawrence Durrell, who, as an author, excelled in scandalous tales of incest, etc.  \n\nThe tale persists without historical backup because anything that raises doubt about the validity of apostolic succession in the Roman Catholic church will delight someone who dislikes the RC church.\n\nOne of the reasons for believing it's probably not true is that the allegation of the event doesn't appear in the historical record until 4-500 years after it allegedly occurred.  It's hard to believe that a 'pope' giving birth during a procession would have gone unremarked for hundreds of years, and then conveniently been noticed along with the development of Protestantism.\n\nI'm not a Catholic myself, just someone who hates to see religious prejudice rear its ugly head in our world.


That is associated with Microsoft Messenger. Since messenger is embedded in to your OS, courtesy of Microsoft you have to disable it from auto running. Here is what ya do:\n\nWhen the .net passport window pops up, hit cancel to bring you back to the main messenger window.\n\nIf hitting cancel does not open up messenger you will need to locate the program and do the following steps.. You can find messenger either in the bottom right corner of your task bar, or in the C:\Program Files\Messenger directory and double click on the msmsgs(.exe) icon.\n\nOnce you have the messenger program open go to Tools > Options. This will open up a dialogue box with all of your messenger options.\n\nProvided you do not want to use messenger, click on the “Preferences” tab at the top of the dialogue box and uncheck the following boxes:\n\n“Run Windows Messenger when Windows Starts”\n\n“Allow Messenger to run in the background”\n\nUn checking those two option will essentially “Turn off” messenger and it will not auto load each time you start your computer.\n\nClick the “ok” button\n\nClose the messenger window and that should do it. I would also check your start up to make sure it is not running in there as well. You can check that by doing the following:\n\nClick on the “Start” button from your task bar go to Programs > Start Up. If you see anything associated with the messenger program in there right click on it and choose delete.\n\nRestart your computer and viola, no more bothersome .net passport screen.


My father had to leave for Korea for 8 months and is home to visit. Over the 8 months, my mother, younger brother, and I have been going through alot of stress. No one on my father's side of the family bothers to call to check up on us or to even say "HI"  other than my dad's sister. My mother doesn't agree with my father b/c he says he wants us to visit them and call them, but I personally don't believe its fair if we do that for them b/c they were never there for us. And now that my father is home, they all of a sudden want contact with us, "HIM". I love my father but I'm sticking with my mother on this one. I know that 2 wrongs don't equal a right but I don't believe it's fair. What should I do?

I'm with you. I just recently had a baby and I didn't even call to let my brother know I had her cuz he hadn't bothered to call and see how we were doing or how my mom was doing and she had cancer and just passed away in November. So I think, if you don't want to contact them, don't. I say, they know how to get ahold of you, if they want to, they can.


My son is definitely not fat, he hasn't got much height yet and has a little belly on him he is only 10 years old.  He gets called "fat".  I have called the school and they have talked with these certain children but now they are calling him a baby for running and telling.  He gets great grades and I just can't let it go because it makes school miserable for him.

If he shows the bullies he doesn't care what they are saying (ignore)...they may stop and pick on someone else. A lot of the bullies keep doing it because they are getting a reaction out of your son. After a while, it won't be fun anymore because it's not bothering your son.\n\n10-15 yrs down the line, when your son is in college/job, these bullies will be working at McDonalds serving fries to your son. I'd love to see that.\n\nBullies probably won't stop until they themselves get jacked up. One other solution is to sign your son up for karate or Kung-Fu lessons :)


Is he a myth made up by man who saw hes own death and wanted hope or is he really up in heaven looking to help his children?

There seems to be an on-going controversy that we didn't actually land on the moon and that this is a hoax designed to perpetuate the space program. Critics of the moon landing say that no one has ever traveled more than 400 miles into space and based on the fact that our moon is 250,000 miles away that a moon landing was impossible due to fuel constraints and other obstacles. Can anyone clear up this controversy?

They DID land on the moon. See the sources.


Is there any registration or forms I have to fill out?  Or can I simply buy it and get a dated receipt?

if it is semi-auto then it is not "technically" an ak-47 even though for all practical purposes it is one just not fully auto.  thus it is treated exactly as any normal long rifle is, which means you do not have to do anything special at all.  just buy it and move on.


Tell me about deatails description of DHCP server & how does it works?

It is one of many servers that assign IP address schemes to a computer (called a node in network jargon). The IP address stands for Internet Protocol and the main Internet Protocol used is TCP/IP. The current IP address scheme that DHCP servers assigns allows for over a billion nodes and uses a sophisticated scheme of binary to hexidecimal number conversion to manipulate the IP address into a network address and finally a subnet mask.

are there any test that can tell when she was infected?

herpes is weird, you might never get anything, outbreaks and all, or it may come in a week.  \nusually you would have to have a lab test of skin cell during an outbreak to tell if it was herpes or not, but then you have an outbreak already and you pretty much know, but the doctor can tell you for sure, or a blood test can tell as well.

I'm not sure if it's due to interference, but I live in a high-rise building, and can see more than 20 hotspots from my PC, with more joining the list every week.

Could be a number of reasons even a faulty unit.\n\n- Try changing the channel of the access point (some even have an option to select a clear channel automatically) generally CH11 is the default so I would change it from this.\n\n- Do you have a cordless telephone? maybe a DECT (digital) phone which can operate on frequencies close to WI-FI units and can cause the units to disconnect clients, try changing the frequency/channel of the phone (if possible).\n\n- It may very well be that there is so many Hotspots in your area that there is just not enough channels to accomodate them all, you say you have 20+ hotspots, that looks like way to many to ensure a stable wireless connection (I think there are onmly 13 channels available). Try relocating the wireless unit so you get less hotspots appearing, even moving a few feet makes a big difference.\n\n- It could also be another device in your house operating in the same frequency range i.e. a video sernder thats causing co-channel interference.\n\n- Failing that, do you really need an access point? can you survive on standard CAT5 cables from a switch/router?\n\nHope you get it working ok.


I have heard that there are a lot of people going to thailand to get plastic surgery because it is cheaper. Is it recommended that I go for dental work and expect good work as well as lower prices?

wowwww. i am quite impressed by that: American dentists are the best. that is nonsense. in bkk the standart is very high of dental work, go to the dental hospital at sukh 49 or the bnh. plastic surgery is another story. a face lift here costs u only a couple of thousand usd, probably around 2 thousand. and not 50'000 but like this joker said before me. but i would not recommend a face lift here unless u really know the clinic and got recommended. dental work is okay, with more u have to be careful, but that is all over the world like this. look at hollywood, they have done their plastic surgery in the states and how awful they look like sometimes...\n\nany hey: what is that nonsense about underage prostitutes? bangkok has prostitutes yeah, so has washington dc. there are a bit more over here, but hey, nobody is forcing me to go out with one. there are many nice thai girls who have normal jobs and can be dated in the same way u r used to at home.


How can we as true Americans keep God in our Schools, government biuldings. Our country was founded on God, and i think anyone that does not like this should leave the country or shut-up!

How can we as believers in God believe that God is not in our schools simply because the government does not try to force children to believe what the government says. (You understand that the government runs the public schools, and if you want religion in school, what you want is the government telling us what kind of religion to practice. Right?)\n\nI recommend that you do study into American hisory -- the beliefs of the founders are mixed, and the principles founding the country are those of religious freedom from government more than government bsed on religion.\n\nAlso, out of curiosity -- what does your main question have to do with the rest of the question?


ACTUALLY I M HAVING THE PROBLEM OF ARTHRITIS I HAD THE MEDICINE LAST YEAR BUT NOW I HAVE CHANGE THE MEDICINE WHICH MEDICINE I HAD LAST YEAR THAT MEDICINE HAVE GAINED MY WEIGHT AROUND 63 BEFORE THAT I WAS HAVING WEIGHT AROUND 50 IN THE AGE OF 30 NOW MY AGE IS 35 SO PLZ TELL ME HOW CAN I LOOSE MY WEIGHT I HAVE DONE LOTS OF EXERCISE BUT I CANNOT USE MY JOINTS BECAUSE I M HAVING A PRAOBLEM SO TELL ME THE WAY HOW CAN I LOOSE MY WEIGHT AND TELL ME HOW CAN I HAVE A PROPER DIET

There are a few ways to go around this. first of all you need to solve your arthritis problem either by taking medication or by some other way...pain is the worst deterrent physical activity.\nOn a different facet, you need to indulge yourself in a “low impact” physical activity like low intensity yoga or exercise in a pool. Those are especially good for people with arthritis. Also, if you cannot perform any kind of cardio activity, I would recommend going to the sauna or hot tub, to get the blood flowing and your metabolism kicking.\nAlso, watch what you are eating and your calorie consumption.\nLosing weight is a hard endeavor and I’m confident you’ll do well. ;)\n\nGood Luck!


That is to say when will yahoo users be able to send instant messages to msn messenger.

You can do it now ... You can talk with MSN, AOL and Yahoo messengers with:\nhttp://www.e-messenger.net/\n\nIt's an internet based message service. Don't say I told you to use the service though. You will need to SIGN IN WITH YOUR PASSWORD. Is this safe? I don't know ... I don't know these people that set up the site, but I do know it is available.

I want to sing classically, and I'm willing to work hard and pay for my own lessons. How can I get my parents to support me? They're afraid that a career in music will leave me poor and depressed --- how can convince them that even if that's the case, I want to pursue this?

Frankly? Surprise them.  Many cities, ect, have opportunities that dont' cost a thing to get into a choir, or practice group.  Find one, join it, spend time with it, and on your recital day, invite your parents.  Don't tell them what it is for, yet. Just tell them you want them there.\n\nLet them hear you sing, let them see how good you really are, how much dedication you have, and how much it makes you happy.  Once they see this, they will be supportive.\n\nI, as a parent, and a singer, have had experience with this.  Once my parents found out music was who i was, what i enjoyed doing, they supported me in every way possible.  It will work for you as well :)

I'm going on parental leave in about 2 months. Is it ethical to interview without letting them know what's going on? I told an interviewer that I'll prob have to be gone for a couple of months, and my friends have told me that's a bad move, just keep my mouth shut till I get the job, then tell them. I just feel it's a bit unethical.

I don't think that you owe that to the employer DURING the interview process.  But I do think that you should mention it as you are accepting the position.\n\nMy understanding is that if the company is a certain size (like 25 employees?  Maybe 50), then they have no say - the law allows you to take the leave.  But if it's a smaller company, then you may not even be allowed to take the leave (without their permission).\n\nWhen I make an offer to someone, I negotiate the start date.  That is the time that we usually negotiate any other items - quite often the candidate will state "I have been planning this vacation for some time - I need the week of the 20th off" (or whatever).  We may even advance them the vacation time, or allow them to go without pay for that period if they prefer.\n\nSo that's when I would recommend that you mention it - when accepting the position.  "I accept, but there is one thing - I was planning on taking some time to be with my children (or whatever)".  You have, at that point, accepted the offer, and have the right to take your leave.


i like this guy but he is 3 years older then me and he wont go out with me because of that but he is going out with some one 2 years older then him but he says he likes me what do i do?

If he likes women older than him, he probably likes a mature woman. If your cute, he may not find you mature enough to go out with but good enough for booty calling. \nBest thing is to find out if he prefers older woman or just this particular older woman.
