Recently I was eating a peanut butter and banana sandwich and pondering existence. With all this affirmative action talk going around, I began to wonder why any of it started. Why do we discriminate? What sort of differences bother us?

We have a tendency to demonized things that are different, or that we don't understand.\n\nIt is a matter of laziness and ignorance.   It takes time and an open mind to understand and accept the diversity that makes society wonderful.  Unfortunately too few people possess that.\n\nAnd difference is potentially bothersome.  As long as it puts us outside of the "comfort zone" we have established for ourselves.


Whatever it is it is probably overrated just like the player. I would rather have David Eckstein for a shortstop.


How do you lose weight on your thighs cause the only thing big on my body is my thighs?

well, you really cannot target any specific area, what i recomend is eating a bit healthier, drinking more water and less sodas, and exersising more... expecially walking... like take the stairs instead of the elevator, or park a little bit father at the store, or simply take more walks... bike riding should help too... this will also help the rest of your body look better too\nhope this helps!!!!


The world record score for a senior game, for many years, was the 36 by Arbroath against Bon Accord in a Scottish Cup match in 1885. The game finished 36-0. Bizarrely, on the same day in the same competition, Dundee Harp beat Aberdeen Rovers 35-0. Arbroath's score might have been higher, but there were no nets in the goals and time was lost retrieving the ball.\n\nIn Madagascar in october 2002, a league match between AS Adema and Stade Olympique l'Emyrne finished 149-0, when Stade scored own goals for the entire game as a protest. This match is now in dispute and this score has not been ratified as a record.


Given that, in the long run, either labor (legal or illegal) will seep into the best markets or these markets will leak out jobs elsewhere, what can you do to assure your child is competitive by 2026 and beyond? Do you think it should be a collective effort or is it your obligation to look out only for your child´s interest? How do you see the playing field then and what is your game plan?

Well my answer is going to be a little simpler than the question.  I think what you were trying to say is "Have I prepared my daughter for the world....the rest of the question is a little hazy for me.\n\nMy answer finally...I feel I am so well rounded in terms of my work ethics that it will undoubtedly wear off on her.  She has seen me work two jobs...80 hours a week...and be so tired I can't even say "how was school".  \nOn the other hand she enjoys the "fruits of my labor" now and saw what hard work did to get me there.\n\nIt is always our OBLIGATION....and I can't begin to know what she is facing....I can only prepare her as best I can.   And if how she is doing now is in any way the forecast of her future.....she will be president soon.     \n\nDo you have kids?  If so.....would you expect me to answer anything less than what I did?  I mean did you want me to say that she will end up in a sweat shop?  Hmmmmm.....


they will have their homework done for them and get freee test scores or not have to do a test at all get days off from school and get scholarships and stuff even though they arent smart and have to maintain a very low scores to stay in school

I don't agree that athletes aren't smart, but I do agree that they receive preferential treatment. In my highschool, athletes generally do not receive penalties for wrongdoings, such as lateness, truancy, academic failures, and crimes against teachers and students. In college, athletes receive first choice on course registration, housing, and sometimes grading curves. I'm not saying all schools do this, but the ones I attended certainly did.\n\nIn my schools, it was because athletics are an important part of the school's image. Schools look more competant and successful when their sports teams are winning. If athletes had to miss practice because they have a conflicting exam or they were late for school too many times, that would trickle down and reflect poorly on the school's image. \n\nThe American dream is to seem successful, powerful, and physically fit, especially for youth, so this is valued above many other talents. But it goes the same for other students in prominent positions, like the Harvard-bound straight-A students in highschool (where their downfalls get swept under the carpet) or students who hold office in college organizations.\n\nI wouldn't say that all athletes get treatment they don't deserve, though, because it's really just the stereotypical "jocks" that stand out to us non-athletes. It's always the obnoxious, cocky football player that fails all his exams, but always passes his courses. But he's just one member of the team. The good guys who work hard both in the classroom and on the field end up with a bad rep because of the team slackers.

Why are people posting questions on Yahoo Answers that could be easily answered by browsing the internet? They would get much more accurate answers in less time.  Is it lazyness, and an unwillingness to find the answer for themselves?

I figure if I put questions on here I can get help from ppl who have had the same experience or they might know more than what is on line if there is a hidden trick. I would mostly use this for those items not in a book or on line (like relationship advise) but more for the personal experience that someone else encounters.


I`ve not already finished indusrtial design faculty in Ukraine, half year till bachelor,but took part in the internation exhibitions

That's what I do. Set up your own website for the start!


guys goodluck's and have a good season to all of you..god bless...

This one time, in band camp, I sat down and launched the world's most perfect sea pickle.  It was aerodynamically awesome, created effortlessly.  I had it stuffed and mounted.  It's on the wall above me, smiling down on me as I tappy tap the keyboard.  Lordy.  \n\nRemembering that day... chokes me up... brings a tear of joy to my eye. Sigh.


I just need some quotes from the bible about abortion, im writing an essay so please include sources. Thanx

If you have a strong stomach, this website will help you gathering facts.  There is a video that automatically pops up. Close it if you don't want to watch it...it is gruesome.\n\nhttp://www.abort73.com/HTML/I-case.html\n\nAbortion in not mentioned in the Bible.  Abortion is a recent proceedure that was not around in the days the bible was written.\n\nBut, God does care for the unborn\nExodus 21:22-25 (NIV)  \n    "If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. [23] But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life, [24] eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, [25] burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.\n\nGod does care if we kill our children... \n\nLeviticus 18:21 (NIV)  (Child sacrifice)\n    " 'Do not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molech, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the Lord. \n\nLeviticus 20:3-4 (NIV)  \n    I will set my face against that man and I will cut him off from his people; for by giving his children to Molech, he has defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name. [4] If the people of the community close their eyes when that man gives one of his children to Molech and they fail to put him to death,\n\nPsalm 139:13-16 (NKJV)  \nFor You formed my inward parts;\nYou covered me in my mother's womb. \n14I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;\nMarvelous are Your works,\nAnd that my soul knows very well. \n15My frame was not hidden from You,\nWhen I was made in secret,\nAnd skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. \n16Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.\nAnd in Your book they all were written,\nThe days fashioned for me,\nWhen as yet there were none of them.

As A Melbourne Austraila Lady I like start up home wrestling group down Frankston way, I like as many womens o reply so I can see if I should open such a group

You are too funny, anyway I think you should start a home wresting group down Frankston way. I know many women who would love to join such a club, but have problems finding places which have these activities. Best of luck!


Yes, it is an old question, but there was a reason behind this question. Read about it in the history books. Do u know who asked this question and why?

The sphinx asked that question in front ot Thebes and ate everyone who got it wrong.  Oedipus answered it correctly.


Up until this year, my junior year, school has been a breeze...mostly A's and a few B's for the last two years (Including an A in AP Computer Science last year).  This year I decided to challenge myself, I ended up taking AP Calc, AP Physics, AP Composition, and AP stat.  Having all of these at once pretty much overwhelmed me, and I'm probably going to end up with: an A in Stat, a B in Composition and Calc, and a C in Physics.  While trying to maintain my life, I ended up getting a C in Honors history and a B in Honors English this year.\n\nMy *new* SAT score, after taking it once, is 1920.  I plan to take it again next week, so that score may improve.\n\nI'm planning on applying to the University of Maryland (CP) and a few other competitive schools, but I'm worried about those C's on my transcript.  Did I ruin my chances of attending a good college?

I don't think you ruined your chances at all, but I do think that it will be important for you to use one of the application essays to explain. You can take that opportunity to say...well, pretty much exactly what you just said...that you wanted to really challenge yourself in your senior year, so you took these courses know that it would be difficult. Explain why you did that, and why it was important to you. Then go on and explain what you've learned - not in the classes themselves, but by the experience, and how that's affected you. \n\nBe realistic and honest, and you'll be fine. \n\nCollege admission committees really do know their stuff. They'll understand the difficulty of these courses. And if you can explain why you took them despite the risk - what your goals were, beyond the grades - then I think they'll smile on you.


if you knew that your bf/gf had a profile on a dating website, would would post a fake profile to try to trap them? If you have, what happened?

Actually I did something like this once for a friend of mine. She was dating this guy and she wasn't really sure how sincere he was. So, I put up a personal ad incognito of course and snagged him. It was fun to play an alter ego of mine! She got what she wanted and I got to have some fun.


I have a DVD which I've seen several times on my DVD player.\nBut when I insert it into my DVD-ROM drive to see it on computer, Windows Media Player gives me a message that compatible DVD decoder is not installed on my computer.\nI couldn't find any information about used codec both on disk and its cover.\nIt's from BBC collection so I think they couldn't use some exotic codec.\n\nSo, the question is: how can I determine which codec I need to install?\nAny internal info on DVD or something like that.\n\nCan anybody help?

DVD video using MPEG-2 codec. So you may need to install it first. You can use K-Lite Mega Codec Pack ( http://www.free-codecs.com ). I think That codec pack is the most complete codec pack. The newest version is K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 1.53. You can use GSpot (on that pack or http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ ) to see the codec of anything video you have. Or you can use VirtualDub or VirtualDub Mod to see the DVD codecs and even you can use it to convert it to AVI\n\nFor more info about DVD video : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvd#DVD-Video


Is it better for the guitar to loosen all the strings when it's not gonna be used for long periods of time? (say, 1 day or more)    And in that case, is it good for the strings to be loosen up and then stretched again so many times?

NO! leave then strung and in tune..you will have to retune anyway. If you release the tension on a GOOD guitar, you run a greater chance of neck warp than if left strung. This is for long term storage..short term..days, etc....leave the thing alone. They are designed to be under tension. And if normal stringing causes warp, you didn't get much of a guitar.


its my third month of taking yasmin contraceptive pills and i have lost 7 kg weight what is the reason

I've gained weight on every BCP I took except Yasmin.  I lost about 5-6 lbs and kept it off.  As soon as I got off of it I gained it all back plus a couple for good measure.


When none of those things have led to any progress in a divorce case lasting over 6 years.  Why can't attornies get the job done and stop dragging everything out by pretending they are arguing with each other on the phone each day and then charging their clients hundreds of dollars for it every time?  Lawyers - how do you sleep at night??

b/c the more "stuff" they do, the more they can charge you..remember they work by the hour.  I will be a lawyer in a year or so, and completely agree with you.  Those who take people in a vulnerable emotional situation and bend it to meet their financial desires should be disbarred.  They give the whole profession a bad name.  \n\nThey can get the job done...you need to tell them to stop doing all the filing they are doing, or to get your permission first...they can't do stuff you haven't authorized, remember, they work for you.


OK so I was just wondering why this society has to be ok with like lets say a guy goes out and comes home with more than one girl...but then if a girl goes out and goes out with random guys she gets called every damn name in the book. where as the guys just get props from their boys. this is soo damn stupid i think that this should change. but why are things like this anyone know???

My personal opinion is that I really don't give a rats behind what someone says.  if i feel the need then I'm going to do it.  There really isn't any way to change the perception that people have of it.  All you can do is make peace and trust the decisions you make.  Forget what everyone else says!


Hello Im throwing a pool party and I need some suggestions.I want the pool party to be the best!

besides just a pool, set up a volleyball court in your yard, and set up a table with some snacks on it, watermelon is good, and pineapple, licorice is really good and have some drinks (you can use licorice like a straw if you like) and have beachball that you can play around with in a pool. a basketaball hoop in the pool is fun too. also, its fun to have a radio somewherer out of splashing distance with some summery music. hope this helps a little....oh yeah!! you can also have it themed, like hawaiian, or polka dots, or everybody bring a ______ party. (like, maybe, have everybody bring a beachball or something.)and squirt gun fights in the pool are fun too...


Because we are too lazy. The government is also saying that it's trying to help us. Still, I haven't seen any wind turbines being built where I live. Plus, my parents don't have the money to send me to a protest and I don't have the resources to organize one.


They started out with the best record in the league but now they are slowing down a little.

The Mets will be lucky to make it to the playoffs.  They always fade down the stretch.  If they advance it will be as the wild card and they will be one and done.  No World Series this year.


For my science project, I need to have teeth to see what makes it decay and stuff (the enamel part) and I was wondering..... since it's hard to get teeth around here (besides from my mouth...) I was wondering what type of rocks, minerals, etc. can be a good replacement for real teeth as like a representation for real teeth. So.... something that rots like our teeth or something that acts similar to the enamel on our teeth, etc. Thank you in advance! :]

Don't know what would make a good replacement, but try asking a dentist for teeth.


All I know about Rwanda is that some king was overruled by angry Hutus people. I need more info!

Rwanda was originally ruled by the dutch. The dutch divided the Rwandans into Hutus and Tsutsis, they Gave the Hutus control and then they turned the goverenment over to the Tsutsis. The Hutus were against Tsustis and when the ruler was killed they began a systematic massacre of the tsustis. it lasted about a 100 days and I don't remmeber how many were killed but a lot ... Outsiders did nothing, the Un didn't even send military troops just peace keeping ones\nsee hotel Rwanda it's heartbreaking ande amazing\nalso check out\nWikipedia/rwanda\nand encarta/rwanda\nfor all you need to know


A kingdom of wizards was conquered by an evil king who will execute them the next morning according to the following procedure:\n\nAll of them will receive a hat with a different color. Supose that there are N wizards and R colors.\n\nThey will be lined in such a way that the last wizard will be able to see the colors of the hats of the remaining N-1 wizards but not his own.  The next one will be able to see ONLY the color of the hat of the remaining N-2 wizards an so on...\n\nThe wizards will say one and only one thing.  If they guess the color of their own hat they will save their own life.  Otherwise they will be executed immediatly by the evil king.\n\nThe points for the strategy that saves more wizards.

Technically only one wizard has to die. He tells the one in front what color he is, then he tells the one in front of him and so forth and so on. So only the very first wizard has to die, that is if he doesn't guess his own color. He will sacrifice himself for the rest of the wizard world.


I am doing a presentation about homosexual couples raising children.

I am 5 months pregnant.. My wife and I chose a childhood friend that we knew would respect our wishes.. Plus how many men (being honest now) would turn down a chance to have 2 women for a week with all for his needs cartered to.. NOT MANY!! I know three other couples at this time that are either pregnent or trying to conceive.


Its what ruins my face the black bags, I get enought sleep and go to sleep always at 10:30 and wake up on 6:00... so any beauty solutions on removing the bags???

There's a liquid available in beauty shops/dept stores for removing those black circles. It not only removes the black circles below the eyes but also makes the skin harder. I have seen my girl friend getting great results using that.  I dont remember the name of the liquid but its available in most of the dept stores in US.


I hear people talk about a "guest worker" program, which I am in support of as long as it is enforced. Even Mexicans say the goal is to come to the U.S., work for a few years and bring the money back to Mexico for a betteer life. But most Mexicans don't do that; they don't want to leave and instead, want to bring 10 other family members. I'm sure if Congress approved a guest worker program that is strictly enforced, when the time comes to repatriate the guest workers back to Mexico, they'll b*tch and moan about how it's unfair. Yes, I have no problem with Mexicans being given legal status, but not automatic citizenship. At best, there are perhaps 2,000,000 farmworker and housekeeping jobs that they fill, which leaves a 10 million person surplus. BUILD THE WALL!!! GO MINUTEMEN GO!!!

perhaps the minutemen can also strictly enforce repatriation of people posting opinions not questions


Doctor: I have some bad news and some very bad news.\n\nPatient: Well, might as well give me the bad news first.\n\nDoctor: The lab called with your test results.\n       They said you have 24 hours to live.\nPatient: 24 HOURS! Thats terrible!! WHAT could be WORSE?  \n         What's the very bad news?\nDoctor: I've been trying to reach you since yesterday.

Although it didn't make me laugh, it made me smile!


Even those who seem to dispose people secretly wanted to be love. Love is what makes life meaningful. The material things in life are pale compare to love.Love is something which money cannot buy. Sure, you can go to a prostitute for sex, but do you really consider this love?


I need to basically create some graphics/images, for example: you arrive late at a movie and you catch only the word "end". Without having watched the film, just that "end", you must guess or know whick movie genre was the movie about, just by using a very good font and adding some background image, mainly colours (not cars, or knifes, or bricks for example). \n\nFor example, if "end" has some blood on its letters, it might be terror. But Im just a begginer, so I need some program/software that can be easy and able to do some great stuff at the same time, like adding some cool background for images and so on.

Depending on how much drawing vs image munipulation you want to do, I like Illustator CS2 and Photoshop CS2. But it depends on your level of profficency with such programs and how much time you have to learn it, not to mention how much you want to spend on a program. A more price considerate (and more user friendly from what I've heard, though I've never used it) altenative would be something like CorelDraw.


I have been told masturbation harms you physically,like your eyesight,brain and nerve systems.Do you guys think it's true?

Nope, it doesn't! Masturbation causes no adverse health effects at all- in fact, it's rather good for you! It's a fabulous way to relieve stress!\n\nThink about it this way: masturbation is pretty much exactly the same as sex when it comes to the way your body acts and reacts. If masturbation caused health problems then sex would too!


He always looks at me but I'm crushing on someone much older than me, but I think i have more oppurtunity with the one that looks at me should I talk to him?

If you don't like him then don't talk to him.  If you really like the older guy, then go and talk to him.  Don't talk to someone just because they like you...


How does this apply to what he fought for while he was alive?

I think what he meant by this was very simply look at the difference in the world today a ghetto versus a suburban neighborhood,look at the differences there.


There will be an Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie later this year and a Simpsons movie next year. Which do you think will be better?

That is a great question!  I really like both shows, but I don't know if the Aqua Teens can carry a whole movie.  Remember, Adult Swim programs normally run in 15 minute segments, and if you think about it, some episodes get a little weak.  \n\nI really liked the one about the drunk alien fraternity guys.  That had the potential to develop into something longer.\n\nI think there could be a great Venture Brothers movie, but I don't know if it will ever happen.\n\nTo answer your question, I think the Simpsons will be better.\n\nBob


Okay, I know that LOL means "laugh out loud", but why would there be a "z" or "s" added on to this? It doesn't make sense to me.

lols - laugh out loud \n\nlolz - laugh out loud\n\nloti - laughing on the inside\n\nlolngs - laughing out loud never gonna stop\n\nlololz - laugh out loud\n\nlol - laughing out loud\n\nlol'd - laughed out loud\n\nlolcity - the whole city laughs out loud\n\nlold - laughed out loud\n\nlolin - laughing out loud\n\nAll mean basically the same thing. I would just stick with LOL. Hope this helps.


I do believe Ritchie Co. High played Frontier at Ritchie

Its probably easiest to go throught the high school records if you really want to know


what materials of the piano forte made of

Ah, depending on the brand of piano, the sounding boards and keys are made of different types of wood. Black keys are often made with Ebony. Cheaper models are painted or covered with plastic. Some use ivory (black AND white) and some use mother of pearl for the white keys. Felt is used to stop each string's vibration. The tuning screws and other metal workings are usually brass. The strings are steel and copper (three strings per key), depending on the pitch. I hope that helps.

Just tell him one more time that you r not comfortable with this porn addiction thing... if he doesn't listen or talk  about it... i guess you might wanna consider giving a warning of splitting up...\n\nbut in the same time offer him help & support if he shows the intention of quitting , cause as u said it's an addiction... it's not so easy to quit u know


Contrary to popular belief, matter can actually travel at or faster than the speed of light, in a way. How?\nThe object must first be travelling close to the speed of light by conventional propulsion. In order for it to at least match light speed, it MUST utilize warp drives. (remember Star Trek?)\nWarp drives work by using gravity to condense the space fabric in front of the object and antigravity from antimatter to expand the space fabric behind the object. In theory, if the object is travelling close to the speed of light through adequately-condensed space, the object should be travelling at more than the speed of light if the space is expanded. Get what I mean?\nTry this representation. Picture a flat napkin. Superimpose the x and y coordinates of the Cartesian planes onto the napkin. Now, fold the napkin along the x-coordinates, starting from the left to the right, folding down the napkin for the first time, folding it up the second, folding it down the third... Now, soak one end of the napkin, I mean the longer ends, along the y-axis. The result is the whole sheet getting soaked, because the water travels through the "condensed" form of the napkin directly. If you soaked one end of an open, flat napkin, the water still travels at the same speed through the napkin, only this time, it doesn't travel as far within the similar periods of time.\nThe speed of the water represents the speed of your object, and the napkin represents the fabric of space. Get the picture? The object doesn't travel faster than light speed by itself. It never broke the laws of physics, but travelling through condensed space produces the intended effect.

My son has ADHD and so does my husband.  My son was on Ritalin and we didn't have any luck, He is 18 now and hasn't been on meds sice age 13. he has a lot of anger and frustration issues but he self medicates with Skateboarding. He says it helps him to escape and slow his brain down. And get rid of his aggression. My husband is on Strattera and Except for having a daily throw up session he says it helps him to concentrate and focus on his job.


my son is doing a report on a famous la dodger, any suggestions

Easily the two most famous Los Angeles Dodgers in their L.A. history are Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale.\n\nKoufax and Drysdale are both Hall of Famers, Koufax was THE  dominant pitcher of the 1960s, better than Gibson or Marichal, who were both awesome in their own right.\n\nDrysdale's HOF credentials are far less impressive than Koufax's, but Drysdale made it to the Hall in, I believe, his 10th year of eligibility.\n\nRoy Campanella never played for the L.A. Dodgers...he was paralyzed in an accident prior to their moving to L.A. in 1958. His last year was with the Brooklyn Dodgers of 1957.\n\nBoth Orel Hershiser and Kirk Gibson were flash-in-the-pans as Dodgers, Gibson being remembered for a lucky World Series Home Run, replayed endlessly on ESPN (as well as an undeserved MVP award in 1988), and Hershiser is remembered for his pitching dominance in 1988. Neither player is likely to ever make the Hall of Fame (unless Hershiser has one heck of a broadcasting career or something).\n\nbtw, Hershiser was 23-8 in 1988, not 23-1 per a previous post.\n\nFernando Valenzuela is probably the next-most-famous L.A. Dodger in their history...anyone who was a baseball fan in 1981 remembers "Fernando-mania".  His Cy Young award that year was also undeserved (Tom Seaver should have won it).\n\nFernando is also the answer to one of the better trivia questions I've heard...\n\nWhat player had the most career at-bats against (all time strikeout king) Nolan Ryan WITHOUT ever striking out against him... the answer is Fernando Valenzuela, who batted 12 times against Ryan and NEVER struck out!\n\nSteve Garvey would be the next-most-famous L.A. Dodger ever, and his consecutive game playing streak is, I think the N.L. record, but I'm not positive about that.\n\nWell, I just checked...Garvey DOES hold the N.L record for consecutive games played, with 1,207.\n\nThe top 6 consecutive game-playing streaks (only streaks over 1,000):\n\n1. Cal Ripken, Jr.\n2,632\n05-30-1982 to 09-19-1998\n \n\n2. Lou Gehrig\n2,130\n06-01-1925 to 04-30-1939\n \n\n3. Everett Scott\n1,307\n06-20-1916 to 05-05-1925\n \n\n4. Steve Garvey\n1,207\n09-03-1975 to 07-29-1983\n \n\n5. Billy Williams\n1,117\n09-22-1963 to 09-02-1970\n\n\n6. Joe Sewell\n1,103\n09-13-1922 to 04-30-1930\n\n\nGarvey's streak is probably superior to Gehrig's in one respect... During Gehrig's 14 year 'streak' (1925-1939), he only played every inning of every game once, that being in 1931 (but that year, he did play one game in RF, so he never played first during every inning of every game for an entire season, not even once). In every other year, he was replaced in at least one game, often more. There were a total of 69 games during that streak in which Gehrig was replaced, either in the field (66 times) or by a pinch runner (4 times)  or a pinch hitter (8 times).  Sometimes the pinch hitter or pinch runner WAS the substitute first baseman as well, which explains the slight overlap in these numbers.\n\nI'm guessing that Garvey, during his streak, probably played more consecutive innings at first base than Gehrig ever did, but I don't know how many consecutive complete games Garvey played.

Mostly I get nervous while attending interview or presentation. I have tried many ways, but no result. Please suggest how to get rid off it...?

go to lots of interviews, even for jobs you don't want.  you will get comfortable with the format so when you interview for a job you actually want, you will be relaxed.


I would also prefer one that does not need filter replacement.

Stay away from the Ionic Breeze type purifiers.  Consumers Reports evaluated these types and determined that it would take days to purify the air in your house (by that time the air in your house would have been replaced on it own - and is not purefied).  Go to their site and check it out for yourself.  Given that I am not sure you will find another variety that does not require a filter.


Just because the resuscitator is expired doesn't mean that it degrades immediately.  It'll probably still work because the components haven't broken down.  However, the expiration date is there for a reason.  After that date the likelihood of the device not working increases.  If you've got an air resuscitator around for times of emergencies, it's best to keep one that's still within it's expiration date.  If it's out, replace it with a new one.


k. u c...i have this problem..i ike this guy at school A LOT and asked him out but he said that he is not allowed 2 date!!! I need to know if he likes me and what to do!!!! PLZ HELP ME!!!!!!

Nigeria is lost out of the world cup race,so many other countries are lost out but I'd like to know how many countries are participating.

To repeat an earlier answer 31 plus Germany qualified but almost every country in the world participated, more than the Olympics.  Brazil was upset because as winners of the last cup they did not get automatic qualification but because of numbers they had to qualify.\nQualifying has been going on for two years now.


I want to know if anyone is familiar or has taken online university? please let me know what its like and if its managable. Thanks in advance.

It is definitely manageable, but you may want to be careful too. It is certainly convenient, but it also requires quite a bit of self-discipline. If it is a reputable online course - through an accredited college or university - then the coursework is not likely to be easy. You might want to start out with one class at first, especially since you say you haven't had any prior college experience. It might also be good for you to take an in-person class now and again so that you can get the overall college experience through class discussions, etc. that are difficult to convey through an online environment. Hope that helps!

I asked how I could make income from staying at home with my son. a couple of people said for me to do real estate.. how is this done from home?

ok here is the deal, i am also a stay at home mom, I tried the realestate thing, it is impossible to do it all from home, you really have to be able to jump, to work for you clients. this for me ment taking my one year old to show a house, and she pooped, and 8 months pregnant trying to close of houses. some my case was extreme. I know that you can do referals, and relocation, you relocate people with set appointment, ONLY from home I have never heard of, just think about it people are buying the most expensive thing they will ever buy, they want to see it, feel it, be in it, and THINK a lot about it and this means showing it over and over, even if you don't make the sale, I felt like I wasn't taken to seriously b/c i had to take my 1 year old with me sometimes, cause my husband was at work, and you have to show at the drop of a dime sometimes.  I heard that you can do telemarketing from home in some states, my state you can't but I have a friend that does it, and she sets her own hours, and she loves it! good luck its hard to juggle both I am still trying to!

I want to lose weight. If that means muscle too... I don't care... I want a smaller body. I have so much muscle, it's annoying. I've been running, walking ... etc... is there a kind of workout that makes you smaller? ie sprinting 4 minutes. jogging 4 minutes. or is there a diet that will  WILL  WILL trim the inches away? Please help, I'm running out of ideas. I want to lose weight, not gain muscle. I have a LOT OF MUSCLE!

well you have got to a good start because you are running however your not running long enough instead of running in a comfort zone of 4 minutes at a time you should start out with a steady pace mile per day key word steady pace if you run a mile and you have to stop you should continue to run a mile until you complete it and then move up to a mile& 1/2 and then 2 total miles a day start out slow and run a minimum of 3 days per week also do not eat any food late at night I'm not sure if you can swim but if you can swim in between the running days swim at least 22 laps lower your calorie intake make sure you use the carbs to your advantage do not I repeat do not overload change your eating habits stop eating fried foods if you eat chicken bake it eat rice without butter and pasta's after 6pm you should not be eating anything but fruit or mabey salad with fat free dressing oh yeah when baking your chicken use olive oil and light seasons and having muscle mass is good it should work to your advantage it sound like U need to strengthen your cardio


theres still plenty of commies to hate, why has our hatred shifted towards middle easterners? hoping for the good ol days like the cuban missle crisis and bayo de los cerdos.

no disrespect meant>> but did anyone even read the qustion?? my  anwser is that we feel we have become untouchable. we are ok with saying and doing anything our"freedom" allows and we have the audacity to then say you cant treat me that way. well isnt that a paradox.? you want to do and say anything and you dont let the other guy do and say anything he wants to back at you? thats pretty prideful at its core. and that is wat makes us do the dumb things we do to the wrong people we want wat we want and we take it. we are all (including the misinformed media victims on this site) a bunch of spoiled bullies. we do need to hate and fear, "communism" ............but the "communist" is not the enemy the enemy is our misdirected hostility.. if we live right.... feed clothe and protect. think about the other guy. the communists as you call them will die. and only the thankful poor fellow you helped will live next store not............ our enemy.


im looking to meet the type of women who are out on their own, are educated, have no kids yet, dont drink, dont smoke, and dont give their bodies up right away.

You need to look within your self and find out why YOU choose this type of woman. Your the common denominator in all these situations. Right?  Your obviously getting something you like out of being involved with this type of woman and you certainly don't seem capable of learning from your own mistakes. Your a repeat offender.  Not attractive!\n\nYou also have high standards for the type of woman you claim to be looking for. Do you have those same qualities to offer a woman with good character, education, her own money, no kids, and a sense of morals? Or  are you like a lot of men who think that having a di**ck is enough?\n\nI don't know if you've heard the saying " Birds of a feather, flock together."  Based on your description of the women you've encountered I wouldn't be surprised if you were just like them. No educated woman with morals wants a psycho, crazy, sleazy, easy  and STD infested man.

My MIL is psycholocailly , emotionally and verbarlly abusive she has been this way to her children all of her life.My husband runs to her defense if I say anything and runs to her aid constantly. He complains to me ,I usually go shopping and max our credit cards out of feeling neglected.I have finally said it out loud.\nI 'm 41 I just had surgery and where is my husband not helping me though  can handle that part. Hes at " Mothers"\n       All my life I have tried to handle things on my own and am thinking its time to end my marriage ,I love him but he has to many issues and I'm tired.\n       I haven't had a easy childhood or life basically my adulthood I screwed up but have learned that I create my own world.\n     I 'm a loving ,personable person I love life I use to hate life and didn't trust anyone thinking everyoner has an angle.\n  My husband makes me feel like I am walking on eggshells -be the quite, no voiced little (Ha) wife.

I can tell you I have been there and done it and it only gets worse because she has a hold on him you can not break. But let me tell you this is also what she wants is for you to leave so she can have him all to herself. As far as your husband sooner or later the resentment builds up and the love is lost because of the way he does. Tell him in no certain terms you realize this is his mother but your also his wife and he is killing all the respect you have for him...Lady


it is a gamelan instrument, can two players play on it?\nits from indonesia

Kotekan is a style of playing fast interlocking parts in most varieties of Balinese Gamelan music, including Gamelan gong kebyar, Gamelan angklung, Gamelan jegog and others. In kotekan there are two independent parts called polos and sangsih, each of which fills in the gaps of the other to form a complete rhythmic texture. In Gamelan gong kebyar, Kotekan is usually played on the higher-pitched gangsa and reyong as embellishment to the main melody (pokok) played on the calung and ugal.


lump now and also it's gone blue, yellow and purple. im not normally worried about bumps and bruises, but today while i was out shopping i have been getting sharp shooting pains going through the bruise and also a bit tonight. i don't normally have this pain when after a bump or bruise, and certainly not after 5 days of having it. is this normal. i always tend to stress about clots after a blow to the leg.

...the pain seems normal on account that you felt pain and displeasure while you were walking in the mall.  Hematomas or contusions (or "bumps" and "bruises") develop when blood and scared tissue coagulates under the epidermis (top skin). \n\nHere is how to treat it:\n"For contusions (bruises), treatment consists of initially applying ice or cold packs a few times a day, to produce vasoconstriction (a reduction in arterial blood flow) which helps to decrease hemorrhage (bleeding) and edema (swelling).\n\nIn general, the quicker you apply ice after the injury, the less bleeding will result.\n\nIf possible, elevate the bruised limb. Blood will leave the area of the wound and there may be less swelling. Resting the limb will also help to prevent further injury.\n\nIf the area is still painful after about 48 hours, apply gentle heat with warm towels, a hot water bottle, or a heating pad. The heat is applied for 20 minutes at a time to promote absorption and repair. Since heat causes swelling and increases tissue fluid, which may impair function, hot compresses may be followed by cold applications to minimize the secondary effects of heat.\n\nPressure in the form of an elastic adhesive bandage may be helpful to reduce hemorrhage and swelling. If infection should develop in the wound, the signs and symptoms might be increasingly severe pain, a fever of 101 degrees or more, swelling with surrounding redness, and pus. If any of these signs appear, your physician should be notified to make sure there are no additional problems."


Alaska has tremendous natural resources that should be developed immediately.  The country would benefit from that.  But, Alaska can not developed them unless the Washinghton D.C. "masters" give their sign of approval.\nThis situation is no different from from the situation in Africa during the nineteen and twenty centuries when European colonial powers dictated what could and could not be done in its colonies.

I think it's a stretch to compare Alaska to colonies.  No one is pointing a gun at Alaska and saying what its people can and can't do, whereas in European colonies in the past, peoples' lives were pretty much run by their oppressors.  And if I recall correctly, Alaska gets quite a bit of pork out of Washington.  \n\nI also think that from an environmental and economic standpoint, we may be losing more than we gain by going after Alaskan natural resources.


If I hold one of the most challenging jobs in the military and ace the SAT, will I have a chance to study in a prestigious school? Will the university still rummage on my High School records which aren't that competitive? Do I still need a teacher recommendation even if it's been 2 years since I graduated from High School?\n\nI got a lot of follow up questions and it's because I'm afraid that my determinatin will be clouded by my not so good High School grades.

Acing the SAT and having mediocre grades might say to the college "classic under-achiever" because it sort of proves you had the intellectual capacity to do well in school, but didn't, probably out of boredom or laziness or both.  But, maybe you are one of those "hands-on" learner types.\n\nYou can get a letter of recommendation from someone in the military, it doesn't have to be a teacher.  Just someone who knows your capacity for success.\n\nYou can address your crappy grades yourself in your essay, don't try and sugar coat it.  Just say you don't feel you felt you lived up to your potential in HS, but since getting out and spreading your wings, you feel you have matured and understand the importance of good grades.  \n\nAnd, it you don't immediately get accepted to your first choice school, take classes at a community college, even get your AA/AS degree there and apply to transfer into your top school as a junior.  You MUST get excellent grades and prove you can do college level work at the community college!\n\nGood luck to you, you can get there if you are determined and it sounds like you are.

What cracks you up? Does it take much to make you laugh?

It's not a question of "what cracks me up"...but more of a "how I feel". (if I had to make a list, there would be sooo many things...:) )\nI have to be in a good mood...and then I can laugh at anything...even at myself...I can laugh (back) at children, dogs and cats make me laugh too, silly things in somebody's life...jokes...\n\nTo answer the second question...No..but again I have to be in the right mood...No point in somebody's attempt to make me laugh if my mind wanders off to an ill relative, or I am in pain, or I am depressed (that happens to me too)...

From sports to work to anything, does polotics play a role in acheiving a desired something

The human is a 'political animal' (can't remember who said that now). Everything that we do is based on some kind of politics whether it's the attitudes we hold or the way we interact with each other.\n\nIf you put a bunch of humans on an island one of the first things they would do (officially or not) would be to create a social hierarchy, some kind of leadership and a system of laws.


So many children's lives are completely destroyed by pedophiles and, they have to live the rest of their lives out messed up by what has happened to them. The pedophiles get a few months in jail and when they get out they're free to victimize again - finding new ways to do it without getting caught.

They do tend to ruin far more lives than one-time murderers.. so, no, they shouldn't get the same punishment.  Pervs deserve a much harsher punishment.  And, if you look up the laws and cases involving murders of children, you'll be upset to know that if you kill a kid, here in TX, anyhow, you'll probably only be charged with "injury to a child"...  don't know why but it's easier to kill a kid and get off than for killing an adult..  The law is wrong!

I know a few churches (such as the Methodists) will accept Masons, but quite a few churches forbid their members to become Masons. Why? \n\nThese guys practice the rule of "love thy neighbor" far better than most Christians do, and they believe in a supreme being. I guess some churches might not like feeling "left out" because of the secrecy. Maybe they have a problem with them taking oaths (even though they don't condemn those who testify at trials when they do the same thing). Perhaps they are angry that they don't specify exactly who the "Supreme Architect" they worship is, but I would think that it's just a way to include people of other religions in the order. Finally, I've heard charges of Satanism, but they sounded like bad conspiracy theories to me. \n\nIt just seems to me that these are pretty flimsy reasons for excluding a group that does so much good. Can anyone give me an informed, intelligent answer as to why these guys are so hated by some religious groups?

Before the reader commits me to hell (as if they had that power -- remember who the Judge is!) please set aside any closed minds and speak not ill of that with which you have no real knowledge. \nFreemasonry is a very ancient fraternal order and very misunderstood. It's written history goes back hundreds of years and it's origins much farther (thousands) It requires a monotheistic belief, that is, a belief in a single non-plural God (yes, Christianity IS monotheistic even if you believe in the Trinity of the Godhead) but will not allow it's members to require anyone to accept a name for the Supreme Being other than the "Supreme Architect of the Universe. (By the way, the "G" in Masonry refers to geometry but "is also the initial of the Supreme Architect...") It is not a religion as it has no creed (salvation beliefs) It assumes one is right with God to begin with and then goes on to use the tools of buillding as a metaphor for right living on this earth. Each stands for a trait of good character. An open Bible and prayer are part of all meetings as Masons feel that all great undertakings should be with the guidance of God. It often is said that Masonry "takes a GOOD MAN and makes him BETTER." \nI have asked many ministers what the beef is and most have said it is because we will not name Jesus Christ as God alone but will allow each man to call God by the name he chooses. What name a man chooses is between himself and his creator. Then they quote the verse that says "Anyone who is not for me is against me; if he isn't helping me, he is hurting my cause." (Luke 11:23 LVB) This apparently means to them that since Satan is Jesus' main rival then it must stand to reason that Masons are Satanists. There is not one shred of evidence for this. It's main teaching is tolerance to our fellow man and so is in direct contradiction to most religions as they feel that theirs is the only one. How sad that most churches do not actually follow the entire Bible, merely the parts that (usually taken out of context) appear to promote their agenda! Also possibly because we refer to the fraternity as "The Craft" although this is in the sense of craftsmanship not witchcraft. Masons may not ask others to join as they adhere to a strict philosophy that one needs to search for the truth of and by their own free will. One must SEEK for truth -- not be forced or led into it by any. (but God) This also angers many religions, particularly Catholics. (although Catholics have since recently rescinded that bias) By the way, God is known by many names (as tough as this may be to swallow) Yahweh or Jehovah in hebrew, Theos in greek, Allah in arabic, and was called the Great Spirit by early native americans -- you get the picture...\nYes, there are obligations taken. Terrible things like promising to take care of your fellow man's needs when possible, NEVER to violate the chastity of women, promising to love your wife, and promising to NEVER lie, cheat or steal -- you know, all the "bad" stuff... There are some pretty nasty penalties, although they are for emphasis only and pertain to Masonry's allegories. You also say you promise to keep them all "so help me God." Another rub is the title of the master who is refered to as the "Worshipful Master." This does not mean that they are worshipped, but respected. (Interesting that preachers who find this bad are themselves referred to as "reverend!") \nBasically the deal here is two-fold. On the one hand if people don't understand something they have a tendancy to make up something. (Hence the number of religions today) And secondly, millions of dollars are made in the propagation of anti-masonic literature. (And I think this is the real answer!) Just for your information, Masons are not a secret organisation, merely an organisation with secrets. (Such as modes and words of recognition.)

how much did they cost in 1993? what year was the internet get invented? what year did E-mails get invented? how much did they cost? answer as many of these as posible. it will make my day because i have to write a report for school about tecnology in 1993, and also add any extra Info u might know. thank you very much.

The first true computer was invented in 1945, well up and running at the end of WWII and took up an entire room. The internet was inveted in 1966 by the US Army and emails were used then in one form or another called an AUTOVON line, phones are still used that way on military bases by the US worldwide.

does anyone know where the best casino in michigan is?

I live in the suburbs of Detroit, so I 've been to them all. MGM Grand Detroit is my personal favorite. It seems to have the best odds. Motor City is second in terms of odds, they have 5 floors of gambling and Texas Hold 'Em. Greektown Casino is good as well, although the slots seem very tight. They also have Texas Hold 'Em and also have many $5 tables and diffrent games like War. Out of Detroit there is Soaring Eagle in Mt. Pleasant near the center of Michigan, it is a Indian casino, and seems very tight. Not one of my favorites. But they do have a hotel, and many shows. \nAcross the detroit river into Canada in Casino Windsor. A very nice casino, they have the most player rewards, along with a giant buffet, hotel, shows, etc. They also have Texas Hold 'Em. When the money exchange is good, this is the best place to go.


how would you compare the cold war (soviet union vs. us) to the war on terrirorism?\n\nit could be anything, from the duck and cover drill in schools to school lockdowns now. or how the cold war was not on the battlefield, and the war in iraq is. thanks a lot. i could really use some help!

I don't today's average citizen is as concerned about an attack as they were during the cold war.  But the Russians had such a massive army, the threat of a wide scale invasion seemed plausible.  With terrorists, the attacks are usually held to a small area.  \n\nThat's just my speculation.  You don't see people really preparing for terrorist attacks like they did during the cold war.  Our children are not being taught it in school.

I lived with anorexia for years. Every time I looked in the mirror all I saw was what I hated about myself. I saw fat and ugly. Part of my therapy was to look in the mirror naked everyday and say ten nice things about myself out loud, so that I was louder than the inner critic. I now look in the mirror naked everyday just for fun. I thought about listing my ten best features, but I was afraid somebody might be offended. It is a naked run down of my body after all. ;-)


I love contentment. With contentment, you find your inner peace. With this, you do not get flustered by the happenings in this world. You are at one with yourself, with other people, with nature. You look at things in a different light. You flow with time. This allows youto enjoy everything you come across. What more do you want?


v15 a woman can be save by way of having children for God. Women are to weak and easyly decv by the voice of satan genesis 3:4.,,,,women must get off tv, get off the podium, and decover their true reason for being created genesis 2:18-22 and spend more time raising the kids rather then trying to be a man or exalting them selve as equals to man.... Satan love women in position of authority just like he love Eve... via them he can mess this world up to the point of no return.. MAY YOU FIND PEACE AND UNDERSTANDING AS TO WHY U WERE BORN.

The Noble People of America deserve respect everywhere. Many think President G. Bush has violated the law in many ways. Why is not possible for Him to close TV pornographic places where there is bestiality and a flagrant disrespect to the Noble Girls of America? \nInstead of trying to destroy the enemy, I suggest an Ideology of Union accepted by Muslims, Jews and Christians. Its ground is "Be conscious of the great value of Life and its Transcendence" with this in mind, it would be easy to: "Be genuinely sincere, grateful and respectful with The One Who Gave us Life, with Nature and with ourselves" Please find it complete and free of charge this Ideology in: "AWARENESS, The Meaning of Life" as a present for your Good Will. Sincerely Paul Hertre

Oh, I don't know...let's see...the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, Freedom of Speech maybe? Come on, we are NOT living in Nazi Germany here.As for the "Noble girls of America" I know more grown self respecting women that are into pornography than I do men. Just because you don't like something doesn't give you the right to judge or to censer what someone Else watches or does.

OK, so a frog scientist (a scientist who studies frogs, not a frog who is a scientist) is trying to determine how far a particular frog can jump under different scenarios.\n\nSo he puts the frog on a field with measurements, kinda like a froggie football field, shouts to it "Jump Frog!"  The frog jumps 31 feet.  So he write in his log book: "Four legs, frog jumps 31 feet."\n\nHe cuts of one leg, places it (the frog, not the leg) on the field and shouts "Jump Frog!"  The frog jumps 22 feet.  So he writes down "Three legs, frog jumps 22 feet."\n\nHe cuts off another leg.  "Jump Frog!"  Frog jumps 9 feet.  He writes "Two legs, frog jumps 9 feet."\n\nHe cuts off another leg.  "Jump Frog!"  Frog jumps 3 feet.  "One leg, frog jumps 3 feet."\n\nCuts off the last leg.  "Jump Frog." ... "Jump Frog." ... "JUMP FROG!!" "Zero legs, frog goes deaf."

It's definitely not the funniest joke I've ever heard, but it did bring a smile to my face! Thanks!!

I haven't had it in about three months now. Not pregant (no sex infact) and there have been times in the past where I haven't had it for over a year (when I was sixteen). When I'm on the birth control patch, I was getting it every month but I am scared to be on it anymore with the things I've heard on the news, plus I don't want to become dependant. Anyone know why I don't get it? Could this cause complications later on in life when I try to have kids? (I'm 22 right now)

You really need to go to your doctor to get tested and checked out to see what is going on.  It could be possible that you are still ovulating even though no period, but the only way to know for sure would be to get tested.\nThere are many reasons for menstrual abnormalities including hormonal imbalance, stress, weight gain/loss, medications, illness, thyroid, polyp, cyst, amongst other reasons.


Oh, Cleo the camel requires 1 coconut/mile.  What are the most coconuts Cleo can get to market? Please help me!

The blue hat is right in his logic but the answer he came up with wasn't right. Cleo covers 200 miles after which the burden drops to 2000 coconuts. Then another 333 miles which drop the burden further to 1001 coconuts. Now the distance covered is 200+333 = 533 miles and only 467 miles are remaining. Cleo can carry 1000 coconuts all the way now without returning, leaving one extra coconut behind (or better having a treat by eating that one too before setting off for the big journey) So for covering 467 miles it'll eat 467 coconuts out of the 1000 and 533 can be taken to the market. 533 is the answer

in terms of getting a high paid job for someone who is an engineer(mech) by profession and has work ex of 4 yrs..basically not in hard core technical side but towards the administration.

if your a logistical person, good at organising things but not so keen on disciplining other go for higher management. Strangely the psychological requirements for being a good upper level manager is the same as nursing. Problem solving and looking after about 15 things.\n\nlower level management is more people skills, less problem skills.\n\nTechnology?  hmm, if you like designing things and have a good imagination, so so on the maths go for industrial design or architecture.\n\nIndustrial designers do what i imagined engineers did\nengineers do lower level management


Hello, How would I find the coefficient of static friction if I have the mass, aceeleration and force?

If an object is at rest on a surface and you push against it and it doesn't move, is there friction on the object? \nThe answer is "yes", but this kind of friction is different from kinetic friction. Whereas kinetic friction acts to resist the motion of an object sliding across a surface, static friction is the force which keeps a motionless object from being pushed or pulled across a surface.\nIf a wooden block is at rest on a horizontal wooden surface, it is acted upon only by the normal force and the gravitational force.\nIf the surface is inclined by a small angle, θ, a component of the gravitational force acts downward along the surface of the board. The magnitude of this component is mg sinθ. If the block doesn't slide, then it is acted on by the static frictional force, fs, which exactly balances the mg sinθ component of the object's weight.\nIf the inclination of the surface is increased further, the static friction reaches a maximum strength. Unlike kinetic friction, which is roughly constant at low speeds, static friction varies to resist other forces on the block. The formula for static friction, therefore, gives only the maximum possible value of the static frictional force. The formula is as follows:  \n   f (s,mas)= μ × N\nwhere μ is the coefficient of static friction, N is the force normal to the contact surface, and f is the maximum value of the static frictional force This force is exerted in the direction opposite the object's motion. \nIf the surface is inclined so much that the mg sinθ component of the object's weight exceeds fs max, then static friction is overcome, and the block begins to slide. At the angle where the block is just on the verge of slipping, fs max is equal to mg sinθ., and Newton's laws give us that: \nthe sum of all forces in the x-direction is zero\n               μ × N = mgsin θ\nand the sum of all forces in the y-direction is zero\n               N = mgcos θ\nFrom the two equations we find that μ = tan θ\nSo the coeffiecient of static friction is equal to the tangent of the angle of inclination where the block is just on the verge of slipping. \nSo,you need the mass and force but aceleration....check the definition

Why do ya'll cheat on us, even if we give you everything we can think of.  Just be honest, I'm really curious.

I am planning on moving in a few months to be with my boyfriend.  He asked me to move in with him into the house that he lived in for 2 years with his ex-wife.  I am reluctant to live there because I am not sure if I can do it.  I don't know if he would compare our life to the one he had with his wife.  I don't know if I would constantly think about the two of them in the house either.  \nIt is a nice house in a nice neighborhood where the real estate market is good.  Would it be fair for me to ask him to sell it to live in an apartment or condo with me?  Or should I just move in with him and make changes to the house?

i wouldn't do it. \n\ni would never live in another womans home. it will ALWAYS be her home..especially if there are kids. \n\nhowever...asking a boyfriend...to sell a home to move into an apt. doesn't seem very mature either.  especially since you two aren't married nor does it sound like there are any plans to marry. \n\ni would keep my place..have him keep his...and share a bed once in a while. if it gets serious..then both of you move out and buy a home together!


What has happened to you when you took zyban? Where you able to quit the ciggies? Where you able to take the recomended dose or was it too strong?

I am on Zyban (Wellbutrin SR 150 milligrams twice a day) and I found that it has helped me quit smoking in the past.  However, when I stopped taking it, I started smoking again.  It definitely made me calmer and less agitated, but for the first few weeks, I had insomnia (which is a side effect).  I started smoking again, but will use it again to quit.  I am not sure how effective it is the second (or third, or fourth) time around. :) I don't know if you build a tolerance to it or not.  I hope this helps!


Case in point:\n\nGame 5 in 1976. Boston calls timeout, but has none and the refs don't call a technical foul. But when Phoenix does it, they call the technical foul (even though this allowed Phoenix to advance it to half court and hit that Gar Heard rainbow, but I digress). Suns lose in third overtime.\n\nGame 6 in 1993. West is called for an offensive foul. Jordan goes coast to coast. Majerle throws up the air ball. Paxson nails the three. And KJ is stripped and fouled on this last second shot, but no call is made. Suns lose.\n\nGame 4 today. Nash is basically manhandled at the very end of regulation, but no foul is called. Furthermore, the lakers strip the ball and Kobe ties it with 0.7 seconds left. In overtime, the Suns Nash is again in the same position, but this time tries to call time out, but the refs don't see it, he's obviously fouled, BUT THEN THEY CALL A JUMP BALL!!! Lakers win the tip, it goes to Kobe, who then hits the game winner with zeros on the clock. Suns lose. \n\nErrors?

ill agree with the heat getting screwed even though i am going for chicago...i don't think nash was "manhandled" i do think he let his team down by letting smush parker(who?)strip the "m.v.p." in the final seconds of regulation.


i have this really nice, sweet,caring, lets just say everything i have always wanted in a guy. that has cared very much for more over the past year. he wants to take a relationship more then just friends. the tricky thing is even tho he is the guy i have been waiting for all my life and i know he would stick around for an extremly long time i dont understand why i cant have more then just friend feelings for him. i have tried but i cant seem to think of him as anything other then a friend. should i give him a change and see where things go from there?

Ask yourself this question, if he died in a car wreck tonight, would your love be lost forever, when he died, would you feel cheated out of something, which could have been great. If not. Just go and start dating someone else, because you are not with the right guy.


I never had a aaa sex and Im going crazy about.. is there any girl that would like to teach me some...I m white,23yrs old,5-9 and really like adventures

Evidently not. They may not believe you, either. I have that problem too. No one will believe I'm the King of Siam and want to add half a dozen long-legged blondes to my harem. Back to the one-hand web sites for you, Jocko.


like when your eyes get red when you cry?

Visine is a vasoconstrictor and can cause a rebound effect...in other words, it will get the red out initially but it can come back worse the next time so you have to keep using it....try just using some artificial tears, preservative free, you can find these over the counter at the pharmacy.


I think of myself as being normal. I have never had gay sex but it is something I have thought about. I have started flirting with a few guys and every one of them has responded like they were interested. These are guys that have girlfriends. Is there anyone who is truthfully not interested in exploring the same sex?

Honestly, I think some people simply don't explore that option because they're happy with their sexuality, even if the same sex may seem enticing. I look at other women and of course I am capable of acknowledging an attractive one. I've even contemplated a three-some between my boyfriend and one of my friends. It is an interesting topic, but I personally think that despite what others may tell themselves, I'm pretty sure most people have thought about exploring this option of flirtation between the same sex.


Actually I mean if you dont get something (like in class or whatever) do you say your teacher that you dont get it or you dint get it which one is more appropriate?

i believe you should say 'i don't get it'.  although it doesn't sound appropriate, it one of the only ways to let your teacher know you don't understand.  that's a good question.


Do they have a core like a star? Or are they just energy? I heard that they form when stars die out or collapse within themselves.Is this true ?

Not really, a solid is usually atoms packed closely enough together so that they bond and form a structure that is resistant to change. Blackhole cores are of collapsed matter: there are no atoms, protons or even quarks. Just like plasma isn't "gas," blackhole material isn't solid


The real deal on what are good areas and bad areas  in renting a apt or duplex, condo or better yet a house in Austin, TX to live, moving there shortly.

www.craigslist.org\n\nlook up the local newspapers for that region because classified ads for the newspapers are usually online.\n\n"good" and "bad" neighbhorhoods mean different things to different people.  On craigslist you can post a question, maybe a local will answer it for you, but no realtor or agent is going to do it because it's a borderline question, could be interpreted as racial profiling which is known in the realty field as "steering" and it will get an agent's license suspended, so they aren't going to give you a straight answer to that question.


i need to know the famose people in the united kingdom and the place to see there.

The Queen, Buckhingham Palace, Stonehenge, Castles all over the place, Museums everywhere, Stratford-Upon-Avon (where Shakespeare came from), Sherwood Forest (where Robin Hood lived), Nuneaton (where George Eliot lived), I'm sure there's plenty more but I can't think at the moment, Stratford's a very nice place though, as is most of Warwickshire.\nOh and you can go on a steam train in Wales, and see Loch Ness in Scotland and Hadrian's Wall.

I booked a 3 week trip to Barcelona, Paris, and Rome for our one year anniversary in March. Now, we are flying out on her birthday in May, should I buy her something special for her birthday as well. I feel like her birthday is wasted because we will be flying the whole day. Please help!

Yes.  Get her something special.  Birthdays and anniversarys are two different occassions.  I think that the anniversary trip was a fabulous idea!  I don't recommend trying to top that.  Just get her something simple.  Since you will be flying, consider getting a little picnic set.  Put some of her favorite things in it.  Ask the flight attendant if you could sing happy birthday to her over the pa system.

The Renaissance was the rebirth of antiquity. This is the time when art, literature, etc began to reflect that of ancient Greece and Rome. It was also the beginning of the advent of learning. The Middle Ages was plagued by disease and warfare as well as the destruction of art and literature from the past. The Renaissance brought culture and knowledge to the forefront. It was also the beginning of secular humanism.

This is my first time and I didn't have any sexual intercourse before...I scared of pain, or hard sex....is this fear normal? He said to me there is nothing to be worry, and just be relaxed..but still i am anxious..how can i control myself before that situation?

only do it if you really are ready for it.  Don't let peer pressure, your boyfriend or anyone persuade you into it.  You will only have one first time, make it with someone you love and who loves you.  \nIf you are going to do it.  A lot of foreplay and fondling and  lube will help.


What I mean is if we have a single party government and also representation for many parties, it would already govern the people and represent the people. I don't like to have a one party system or a large multiparty system, what I like to see is have a Congress with say 8 parties. If the largest party has 45-50% of the seats and is the President's party, it could govern. And if the other parties get seats, it could represent. Let's keep the single party governments and allow fair representation.

You should try a Parliamentary Democracy! Which is in pretty much the rest of the world.) Trying not to get into grave detail, A mutli-party system probably wouldn't work as well in America as it does in other countries. The main reason why is because in America we have relaxed party discipline, meaning that politicians in America can vote however they want to, they do not have to listen to the party. In a Parliamentary Democracy, if you vote against the party a lot, you are moved down lower in the overall party rank (which means they get less funding for reelection/many other consequences). The majority party has 50%+ of the seats in Parliament and pretty much all of the politicians vote on party lines getting legislation passed fairly fast and easy. If we the U.S. adopted your form of government, it would be hard for the government to agree on one issue and get it passed. Also, as history shows with America's current form of government, the party that controls the White House could be different than the party that controls one or both Houses of Congress. \n\nI don't understand the last part about single party governments, but as history shows they are not the most effienct way to govern.

There's a place called devils circle and it's out of bounds. Myself and 3 other girls have been going there and trying to find answers. We know there's something there but we don't know what. It's very strange and i need to know soon. We have been digging and finding nothing. But there is a strange emblem on the floor. While were digging as we get deeper there seems to be cement on the ground. Under the dirt. What is under all of this. What was there befor e Glemont Job Corps in Albany. If u know answers anything that could help us please write to me back. Thank you...

I could not find any history of the site in my resources.  It is likely to be an old military base.  Many of the Job Corps sites are.  If it is, then there may be something disposed of that is encased in concrete.  \nIt may be a fun distraction to investigate, but you will want to consider if it is worth it to risk your stay at Job Corps going out of bounds to check it out.

never had anytime to hang out.  then i started talking to her best friend and me and her friend are incredibly good friends now and we always talk for hours.  i asked if she wanted to go out to dinner and she said ok.  but she'll be coming to my house first and then we are going to the restaurant.  my question is should i tell this girl how i really feel at my house or during dinner by ourselves?

i think that if this happened to me, i would want to be told at dinner, it would probably be less awkward, you dont have to worry about everybody else hearing and finding out and her being embarassed.


when cops want to compare a person's handwriting, how do they ensure that the person isnt just faking it when they test them? and what exactly is the test like?

Hiya :-) ! Hmmm, good question. I suppose that, when the examiners compare handwritings, the details provide them with the truth. Also, usually a person cannot totally hide their character as they move around in the world. So, before committing the crime, if the handwriting indeed is a confirmation of character, the guilty person will not have been able to adapt their handwriting i.e. character onto the other's he/she wants to fool in the future, etc. I suppose everyone has signed somewhere and written documents before... so there always is proof that the handwriting was different in case of doubt? This link might help you... Have a nice day/evening!

I'm taking a play/creativiy class for early child education and I'm supposed to create a manipulative center that meets the needs of each standard for math (NTCM, 1989). Education is NOT my major and my teacher is soooo vague when I ask for help. Anyone know what I'm supposed to do and how? I would GREATLY appreciate any HELP!

These are some ideas aimed for pre-k, 1st and 2nd grade:\n*you can provide different geometrical shapes and have them sort them according to color, size, shape, etc.\n*with the same shapes have them complete a pattern you start for them ex. red circle, yellow square, red circle, yellow square, etc.\n*try looking for a game called "Tangram", I don't know if you can buy one already done or you can make your own in this site:http://www.tangram.i-p.com/\n*give students play money and have them solve problems using it.


can you tell me how or if there is  a web site for that?

OHRAUH!  Outstanding!  I'm sorry, not many legit post about marines anymore. Yes you can look up past photos. I'm surprised you didn't get the photo package upon graduation. Do a search on yahoo for his company, like this\n\nNAME\nGolf 2099 Follow series\nAnd his Graduation date.\n\nG co. plt.2099\n\nIf i remember right The Chevron magi zine publish the photos.  Some sites of the top of my head are,  www.marinelife.com\nwww.marinetimes.com\n\nAnd their main site for Recruit depots has the grad photos. a search on yahoo can easily find it.\n\nWish him the best of luck, and that a brother in blue is thinking of him, and reading this made me smile.\n\nAlso you may wish to join MOM (Mothers of Marines)  \n\nSemper Fidelis.


hi, i have this strep throat and tonsilitis now for a while. i am on penicillin for a couple of weeks..why is it that i have feel like there is a lump in the back of my throat when i swallow? can it be from the strep or tonsilitis or maybe acid reflux?  or maybe from the pus around the tonsils? i can swallow, but it feels like there is like something in the middle of my throat...does anyone have any idea why this is happening?  i doubt it is a throat abscess because i am on penicillin right?  thanks for your answers, i appreciate your advise.

What he/she said. Ask your doctor for advice on the right thing to do. My Mom is a nurse and I will ask her for you when she gets home! :) \n   (I'll just click "Edit message" and rewrite my whole answer. She will know for sure!)\n\n   But until then, Have a nice day and remember to drink lots of fluids to help you get better. WATER AND SPECIAL DRINKS ONLY!
