I thought matter becomes less dense whe you heat it and the opposite when you cool it.

Particles in solids are usually packed closer together than in a liquid. But in the case of water, the presence of hydrogen bonds holds water molecules apart in an open lattice structure, as in a tetrahedral open lattice. \n\nAs water cools, it contracts and hydrogen bonds are formed in greater quantities. Since hydrogen bonds are long and strong, they space the water molecules so that the volume of water increases, thereby decreasing its density (when water freezes, it expands by 9%)\nThe hydrogen bonds in solid ice hold the molecules together in fixed positions, revealing a large proportion of empty space. Since it has low density, ice shows the unique property of floating. But in liquid water, hydrogen bonds are constantly being made and broken.


Thats right, I'm saying they are a lock to get there. Now who will they play?


Why do they freak out, and try to avoid you when you confessed your feelings towards him?

cuz they are scared.. or too wimpy to tell you that they dont feel the same way you do


i am an honest, ok i try to be an honest guy.I can figure out my wife she asks my opions  i answer , not being mean or rude.If i doesnt agree with her why am i such a bad guy?

Just because someone asks for and gets honesty does not mean that it does not hurt sometimes.  We all have our unspoken expectations as to what we want someone to say to or think about us and it's only natural to feel disappointment when that doesn't happen and something else is said or done instead.


I need to take a foreign language (college level 12 hrs). I can choose from Spanish, French, German and Italian. I never took a foreign launguage in high school(10 years ago), so I need some advice.

Go with your interests.  Personally, I find them all equally hard/easy. (I am native american, started with German, added French and I can read and make myself understood at a survival level in Spanish and Italian.)\nHowever, if there are any instructors that are 'TPRS' teachers  (ask around) take WHATEVER that language is.  There are not very many at the college level.  Also talk to other students and find out which language has the most instructors with high student ratings.  The teacher and teacher's methods can make all the difference for a beginning student.  They can dazzle you with complex grammar and lots of work, or they can lead you gently to the same end.  \nEnjoy, though,  Languages are fun if you decide to do the work to learn them!


I think it is best to go to google to find the data


I was just diagnosed with Hypertention it also will be helping to control overgrowth of facial hair.  Any side-effects I should be aware of?

AKA: ALDACTONE\nSimplified answer. It is a POTASSIUM sparing diuretic.\nMeaning. Diuretics make you urinate, but you deplete your sodium and potassium along with it. \nAldactone just gets rid of the excess fluid and sodium and leaves the potassium in the body. Resulting in decreased blood pressure, helping to prevent patients from going into Congestive heart failure to name a couple\n\nRARE SIDE EFFECTS: diarrhea, cramps, drowsiness


If you receive money from a class action settlement, do you have to pay taxes at the end of the year on it?  At no time prior the law firm asked if you would like them to withold taxes??

Boston above is right.  It depends entirely on what the award is for.  If it is for pain and suffering, there are no taxes.  But if it is to make up for lost income - like an action against a former employer or a patent or trademark infringement action - ordinary income taxes should be due.  Punitive damages?  I think they're taxable.  They don't restore you to your previous position, they make you better.  So, I'm guessing taxable.\n\nIf you are the member of a class, look at the notices you were sent to see if information about taxation was included.  Then send a letter to the law firm that negotiated the settlement.


I was wondering if it worth patenting even if it is sort of a rough looking thing (not exactly pretty) ?\nI made it out of my old shirt sleeve, I call it a HOODIE

Sounds Cool. You may be able to sell them at Flea Markets Also. Good Luck


I gave her Four-Leaf Clover just to make her SMILE after failing her test AND TOOK ME A WEEK to find.While she was gone,i took notes for her in math class and inside the notebook i put a four leaf clover to make her suprise and feel happy.For her birthday,i gave her this letter with watch and perfume.i gave her teddy bear,CD,Food.when i give her present,i always suprise her with certain things and she loves that.i bought her ice pack becuase she said her ankle hurts everytime when she runs.when she have math question i always help her even if i have alot of homework.we used to walk to school together.i also have been a good listener.for example,when her grandmother was about to die,she called me and i have been a good listener saying ur grandma's gonna be fine and when her dad cheated on her mom.i listen to her gave her couragement.show her love and care for that person.this girl brokeup with me.do u think she will comeback and do u think she will miss me?and she DOESNT TALK to me why?

You can't buy people--be careful that you have self esteem and your own interests, you don't have to just do everything your gf wants to do all the time. I mean, those are all nice things, but maybe she felt like you weren't being yourself.


i mean they talk to themself and go wild and everything


Ok, I know what was I thinking to go into Psych but I did and I am having a horrible time trying to find a job. I would eventually like to be a school social worker, thus why I went back for my MSW, but I am looking to make at least 30,000 now while in school so I can move out on my own. Any suggestions on companies that are hiring? I am looking for case management, care management that type of work...Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,  \n\n   The most important thing to remember about job searches is that you should use a combination of methods regardless of your location.\n\n    Networking - Register at your local Unemployment Office (you don't need to be on unemployment to register for their assistance). They often will have networking groups on a regular basis. They also are a good source for the jobs that never show up in the paper or online.\n\n    Check your local paper -- In many cases the paper's classified are now online.\n\n    Search Smart Online -- If you don't have a lot of time, spend most of your time at sites that aggregate the job feeds from several job search engines. Prominently these include indeed.com and thingamajob.com.\n\n    Organization -- I am the lead developer of a free online application that allows you to track your ads, jobs you apply for, send or print mail merged correspondence, and track your job search history. This site is jobsearchlog.com \n\nGood Luck,\n\nMichael\n\n    http://indeed.com\n    http://thingamajob.com\n    http://jobsearchlog.com


im madly in love with this guy who is totatly everything i need in a boy and i thought he was single im not with him  or anything,but i went to this presentation evening the other day and he was there and he was dancing with me till his girlfriend came then he dance with her.I could tell he was uneasy and whenever she went to kiss him when i was near he pushed her away yet when he thought i wasnt lookin he was kissing her i was with my mates so i carried on dancin and he couldnt take his eyes off me.I no he likes me cause he told me and all my mates but i dont wanna hurt his or his girlfriends fellings she likes him alot to what should i do?btw i dont no his gf help plz?i really wanna be with him but how?id never cheat on someone as i think it is wrong i cant stop thinkin bout him plz give me some advice

Difficult to answer that one! \n1. You may not no whether he is a cheat by doing this!\n\n2. He may really like you, but I have my doubts if he kissed his girlfriend thinking you were not aware!\n\n3. If he does like you this way he should not of even danced with you being together with someone else\n\n4. If you were in her shoes, knowing now, it's not nice\n\nIf I were you I would not participate or do any kind of flirting but let him know your thoughts. If he is interested he will stop seeing the other person but keep at arms length to prevent yourself being hurt!\n\nTake it from me I'm a Guy!

I work as a tec for a private lab and I'm wanting to know if there is any way to speed up the washing of sample's that are being washed through the -200 seive in preperation for the gradation test.  I live in New Mexico and preping these high plasticity clay sample's can take up to an hour or more to prepare.  \n  \n     Any info would be great.

If your specification does not prevent it, a detergent, dispersing agent, or other wetting solution may be added to the water to ensure a thorough separation of fine material from the coarser particles.

hi, i want to install internal wireless in my laptop but i dont know how to. how much will it cost to install the antenna and mini-pci card in a repair shop or authorized retailer? it's a toshiba satellite laptop. (it did not come with antennas but it has a mini-pci slot) thanx.

Go to buy.com and you get a wireless card and a router for 150 to 200 buck. \n\nBuy it there and call your local Techie and see how much to install one if you do not know how.\n\nIt would not cost much to get installed.\n\nDB


*Ramanujam's proof!!.... can u find any flaws??*\n\n\n\nCan U Prove 3=2??\n\nThis seems to be an anomaly or whatever u call in mathematics.\n\nIt seems, Ramanujam found it but never disclosed it during his life time and\nthat it has been found from his dairy.\n\n*See this illustration:*\n\n-6 = -6\n\n9-15 = 4-10\n\nadding 25/4 to both sides:\n\n9-15+25/4 = 4-10+25/4\n\nChanging the order\n\n9+25/4-15 = 4+25/4-10\n\n(this is just like a square + b square - two a b = (a-b)square.)\n\nHere a = 3, b=5/2 for L.H.S and a =2, b=5/2 for R.H.S.\n\nSo it can be expressed as follows:\n\n(3-5/2)(3-5/2) = (2-5/2)(2-5/2)\n\nTaking positive square root on both sides:\n\n3 - 5/2 = 2 - 5/2\n\n3 = 2 ????????

You cannot take the positive square root of a negative number. The expression (2 - 5/2) is a complex number.

I think we should look at immigration issues in a CASE TO CASE basis. I've noticed many of you here are generalizing way too much about the illegal people in this country. We have overlooked the circumstances or reasons, on why these people are illegal (other than those people who just crossed the border without any legal entry e.g. Mexicans).\n\nSome of you might not know that one of the reasons why there are people here that are "OUT-OF-STATUS" or ILLEGAL is because of the INS backlog. The US government had a law INA 245(i) allowing immigrant aliens to file for a petition to eventually acquire permanent residency. One major requirement of the INA 254(i) law is YOU CANNOT LEAVE THE U.S. WHILE YOUR PETITION HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED.

I don't think most of the discussion is centered around these special cases. Although pointing fingers at the INS or at anyone else for that matter isn't going get you much sympathy, illegal is illegal.

I have an angiogram booked for 30th June as I failed my Treadmill Ecg with depression in St line.I have un-stable angina.\n\nThanks in advance

No exercises, (save light house hold activity and maybe a little, gentle walking)  Now is not the time to engage in cardiac rehab.  Be sure to have your nitro in your pocket all of the time.  Take the nitro with ANY chest pressure, discomfort, tightness, fullness, or shortness of breath especially associated with activity.  Do not wait for it to be "painful."  Trust me on this one.  \n\nYour condition is unknown (therefore unstable) and it is impossible (and foolish) to predict what might be the case until you have your study.  The date for your angio seems uncharacteristically far away.  Usually if a person fails an exercise test we have an angiogram done within a week and often within a couple days...even the next day.  Something seems inconsistent there.  Is the date at your convenience?  If so, have it done as soon as possible so the unknown becomes known and your cardiologist can devise a treatment plan with better information.\n\nGood luck to you.


Absolutely not! They are the scum of the earth.


Then... don't you think Native Americans think of all "but natives to this land" are imigrants and should leave then?

I got that you were being sarcastic, and it's not a bad point.


My wife and I are seperated and I have custody of the kids my four year old is fine with her gone but my seven year old seems to miss her even though she hated her, I am not about to talk bad about there mom but how do I break her out of this longing for her mother or should I even try

It is normal for her to miss her Mom.Just keep loving her and be available to listen :)\n\nIf it becomes a big problem maybe she could benefit from talking to a Counselor or Psychologist whose only concern would be her.


plz answer as soon as possaible thnx....

That would be illegal just go pick up a copy from your local staples


Do most people not understand that the official language for most "STATES" is English?  It may not be the NATIONAL language but it is the state language in most states.  Please tell me some of you know this???

The CIA World Fact book states clearly that the language of the U.S.of A. is:\n\nLanguages:   \nEnglish 82.1%, Spanish 10.7%, other Indo-European 3.8%, Asian and Pacific island 2.7%, other 0.7% (2000 census) \n\nDoes not say the official language is English, sorry but try and argue against them apples!


All of the things they say are just not true!

It's how they play "the game"... very dirty... all the swiftboat stuff in the last election... yikes... and they say the are the party of morals...hahaha... we all see how moral they are on here calling everyone names all the time... they will do anything to gain support on here, and get elected in real life... they have no concern over how they do it...\n\nIt often seems like conservatives don't understand the difference between talking about the issues in a negative way and calling someone a name... the issues are what's important and should be discussed critically, calling people  names gets nothing done..

Is it possible to have extreme PMS?  It seems during that time I become incredibly depressed (cry all the time, can't get out of bed, HATE my fiance and want to leave him).  This lasts for 10 days sometimes, the rest of the month I am fine and happy.  Am I weird?  Do I need meds?  \nP.S. I'm on birth control with the lowest dose of hormones possible.

That seems okay with me.. Normal infact. I dont see any reason to be concerned unless your fiance is like unhappy with you and cant deal with it, then just cry your heart out when you hav PMS. We all get that way, and it lasting for 10 days isnt abnormal at all. Sorry you hate it, but just do like we do, and let others suffer too.

If you want ,tell  what its about .I like anne rices vampire chronicles.

I actually have three favorites.\n\nThe first book is Shogun by James Clavell.  I've read it so many times it fell apart, and I had to buy a new one. It's about an explorer whose ship runs aground in "The Japans."  He has heard about fabulous riches there.  He finds himself in a strange place where he can't speak the language at all and where the customs are completely alien to anything in his experience.  Worst of all, the samurai can kill him for the slightest of affronts.  Fascinating book actually based on the life of a real person (Will Adams), someone who was the ancestor of a man my family knew in Japan.  He moored his boat next to ours.  \n\nThe second is Watchers by Dean Koontz. It's about a genetically enhanced golden retriever, the man who finds him in the woods, and the Other, a creepy creature. \n\nThe third is The Stand by Stephen King.  This one is basically about a Super Flu which escapes from the lab and proceeds to decimate the country.  There are very few survivors, and they are drawn to one of two places - to an old woman (the good) or to the Walking Dude in Vegas (the bad).  Basically, it's about the battle between good and evil for control of the remaining people.  M-O-O-N that spells great book!!


This question is for adults 46 to 60. Actually, anyone older than 45. I don't know how many adults over the age of 60 use Yahoo!answers.\nI've written other questions for kids aged 8 to 12, tweens aged 13 to 17, young adults aged 18 to 23, adults 24 to 30 and adults 31 to 45.\n\nI'm curious to see how we seek differently as we go through life. This can be in regards to work, family, education, money, happiness, spirituality, anything that is important.

After years of moving around advancing my career, I finally decided to "Marry" a company and settle down for the long haul.  Like I told them during my interview, I was interviewing them far more than they were me as it was my intention to retire here.\n\nI'm being groomed for my boss's job who's own retirement will be in about 5-6 years.\n\nI have a beautiful fiance and thus far, my tenure here is looking pretty good.\n\nIn five years, I see myself in my first home, married to my beautiful Stacey and running my department.  I'm looking forward to having the roots that I've had to keep unearthing at the expense of the career.  Now, I've put my time in and can settle back and build the longevity it takes to become a Senior VP at one the world's largest corporations.\n\nOh yeah, it's coasting time Baby !    ;-)\n\nP.S. --\n\nVery thoughtful question.  Thanks for the opportunity to share.


According to the show the "treatment" takes about 2 weeks and the person is completely healed.  The affected person gets in the water with the fish.  One species eats the dead skin off the affected areas and the other sucks blood from the same area.  Secretions from the fish are suppose to have healing qualities.  This is as best as I understand.  I received this information from an 12 year old.

It's a leach. Sorry I can't recall if it was one particuler kind or any old leach. I do remember the show but I thought it was just on Xtreme.


People tell me to flirt with this guy i like but how do guys flirt? so i can pick it up!

Well, we make up excuses to be with you when we normally don't have anything to do. It just depends really. This is where we get in trouble with girls think we're lieing to them. We make up lame excuses to touch you such as hold your hand or something...


This may be more of a statement than a question, but how many people on here have called the Hanso Foundation phone number that was during commercials on Two For The Road? I have called it several times to show friends and it is freaky. They have multiple lines you can access and the answering machines of different people who work at Hanso Foundation are said to you. The phone number is a tie in to a new game that corresponds with the Television show, using commercials, online sites and other stuff. This # was the first clue. If you have ever seen Lost in your life, call this toll free number: 1-877-HANSORG. If you get a busy signal, recall. It is stunning. Also, who has been on The new Hanso Foundation Website? There are more hidden clues than ever. Speak up Lost fans, this is the coolest secret yet!

I didn't know about it until I saw this post,  luckily I saved this weeks episode because I knew I wanted to watch it again.  I called the number and got through on the first try and went to the website,  I also got a message after I put in a password for the newsletter.  I am going to keep playing with the site.

I have just ended a 3-yr affair with a married man (yes I know better but that's what happened).  After telling me for the whole time that he loved me and would leave her when their kids are grown, he finally just told me that he has had no intention of leaving her.  Of course he still wants to have sex with me.  I am very pissed at him and want revenge.  I know that's not right, but still he hurt me a lot.  Does anyone have suggestions how to tell his wife that he has cheated on her?  I know that he has had at least 3 other affairs so if I could find a way to bring those up instead of me that would be better.  thanks for ur help.

Blair,\n\nIt's normal to feel the way you do - you'll have a lot of anger and rage, and want to really get back at him.\n\nBut, it's been my experience that doing so will only cause more pain for EVERYONE involved, including yourself.\n\nYou've already been put through enough pain and humiliation, and you do NOT need to suffer any more than you already have.\n\nYou're a very smart lady for having ended the affair, and I'm sorry to say that the man you were with is NO prize at all.  You're lucky that he didn't divorce his wife and marry you.  You'd have been stuck with the BOOBY prize.  \n\nGo get professional help and get a good support group around you so that you can take the time to heal and recover from the emotional trauma and abuse you have allowed yourself to endure.  \n\nHe already sucked up three years of your life.  Don't let him continue to suck you into his madness and crazy life by continuing the cycle with more craziness.  Telling his wife won't be revenge at all.  Chances are very good that his wife knows and is suffering as well.  \n\nAnd you know what?  The best revenge will be when he sees that you're living your life as a proud, intelligent lady deserving of only the best, and that really - his attention to you as a married man was nothing but an insult to you.  You deserve a LOT better than what he strung you along for...don't let him sweet talk you into continuing one more time, etc.\n\nSorry, but, he's a dog.  Don't lay with dogs.


I have seen the movie but did not stay for the after credits.  Can someone tell me, in great detail, what happened?

If you remembered the scene where the Professor was telling his students about the ethical issues about transffering their conciousness into a brain dead person. At the end of the movie after the credits, the scene is exactly the same as the one in the classroom video. The patient on the bed says, "Hello Moira." in the professor's voice. One can only assume he transferred his conciousness into the patient. That leaves the trilogy open to anymore sequels if any.

I work with two coworkers and everyday they find fault with my work. Our supervisor has had 10 meetings for the year, and nothing has been resolved.  I am at loss as to what the problem is, even though I ask, there isn't any good explanations. It seems as if they work as a team on creating stress on the job.

I would offer them some coffee, tea or soda as peace making gesture.Of course you will want to spike it with ex lax or lobelia, either one will keep them occupied and out of the office enough, that you won't have to put up with their crap.An added plus is you will shine as the employee who is always there getting the job done.

I'm assuming that your question is as follows:\n\n3+(5)*(34)*y - 7z = 6z - 76\n\nWe can simplify this to:\n\n3 + 170y - 7z = 6z - 76,  because 5*34 = 170\n\nWe can simplify more by adding 7z to both sides, because in an equation, what is done to one side has to be done to the other.\n\n3 + 170y = 13z -76\n\nWe can also subtract 3 from both sides, yielding:\n\n170y = 13z - 79\n\nNow, divide both sides by 170, so the answer is:\n\ny = (13z - 79)/170\n\nI'm assuming that you wanted to solve for y, not z. Also, to solve for a particular variable, you need two equations for two variables, three for three variables, and so on. For example, if z equaled 3, y would equal -4/17, since you substitute 3 for z in the equation above and solve. Hope this helped!


(and is it possible to do so by inhaling water?)

Breaking alveoli sounds very strange.  You have thousands of then in each lung, therefore injuring a few would most likely show no consequence.  As far as inhaling water, I don't really think you would do much damage to your alveoli by aspiration.

I was intrigued by your question and wanted to further investigate this web site.  My first impression of the website was that it looked like it had been put together by a team of Jr. high web class students.  The web site looked extemely un-proffesional and looked like it had been put together with out much thought.  First red flag, Any company with enough money to pay employees hundreds to thousands of dollars for a few hours of work, could deffinatly hire a proffesional web desinger to create a decent home page.  Did you notice a lack of out side links The only link i found that took you any where was one that took you to "consumer reporter.org.  I must admit by this time i thought well if they have a major consumer reporting company endorsing their company maybe they are the real deal.  I guess i wasn't too surprised to find that "consumerreporter.org" was obviously a site made by these guys to make their company look good.  The same crapy designs, the same poor acting testimonials, cheesy lines, poor images (the icons they have aren't even links, shouldn't those take you somewhere?  or maybe they just didn't want their page to look plain), I also thought that it was interesting that the only product this supposed company has ever done a consumer report on is Itidata.  you couldn't see any other reports on their page!!!  Sounds like a scam to me.  Interested in some of the icons i found on their web site (the ones that dont take you any where i decided to investigate and find out what those sites where, I was surprized to find out that they were real legit sites.  I did a search to see what they said about this web site and almost fell off my seat laughing when i saw what they themselves had led me to.  Here is a letter from a lady who was unsatisfied with this company, you can find this letter on your own by going to www.complaints.com and typing in ITIdata in the search field, well here it is:\n\nMarch 2, 2006 \n\nHello,\nMy name is Mira and I would sincerely appreciate it if you could help me out. Please take the time to read this and find an honest solution. I purchased the itidata training manual after visiting the site consumerreporter.org and the www.itidata.org site. After downloading the manual and reading it very carefully, I realize that the information promised does not appear to be anywhere. The instructions for settting up a clickbank account are there and the link to the clickbank website is there but, no links to the the names of the companies listed on the itidata website. After attempting to follow the directions and sign up with these sites I realize that they ask for a website on which you can place their ads by cutting and pasting their links or they ask you to sign up with other sites by purchaing advertising tools and space. I would like to point out that the manual strictly says you dont need your own website for this and it also says you don't have to be an expert at using the internet and it also says that no extra costs would be incurred. But going to these sites I see just that. I searched for a member area on the site and called their 713-866-6212 number but found no help as promised to their members...they say to call from 9-5 central time and I called 5-6 times between those hours but got \nonly a recording. There is no response to my email which they say they would reply to in 24 hours.\nI don't know what to do anymore. I have studied the manual 5-6 times but this is all that it says.\nI can only pray that I have not been scammed. The truth is I am a part time student with a minimum salary and new to the country. I don't have money to throw away especially this kind. I need to become financially independent and am not looking to earn obscene amounts of cash. But I would love to have \na legit and regular way of doing this. I would like to get started ASAP on this and I request you to help me. I have full faith that as a consumer protection org y


I'm running my first in less than a week.  www.rnrmarathon.com with www.teamintraining.org

I would guess about 1%.  Of that 1%, many have completed a marathon but I would not consider that they have "run" a marathon.  (That is not to downplay the accomplishment but wanted to clarify the answer.)\n\nThat being said, I am not part of that 1%.  I was training for the Motorola Austin Marathon 3 years ago and was up to 22 miles for my long run when I suffered a stress fracture in my leg, bringing about the end of my marathon training for that year.  Haven't committed to jumping back on that train yet.\n\nGood Luck with the run!  Go Team!


Well, Noise wouldn't hurt your 2 years old son. but I think there are many better places to take your son other than formula. and they are cheaper too.


How do I get rid of this 12 yo girl that keeps coming by my house and talking to me. I'm a shy, sort of non-confrontational guy that lives alone. I wash my car, and boat alot in my garage. I enjoyed her company in a healthy way. I didn't know there was a problem - them my neighbor told me it doesn't look good with all this pedophile stuff on the TV. He said the neighbors are starting to talk..  I'm scared that I'm going to be arrested for being nice to someone young.  What the hell kind of world is this!  Can't even be nice without having problems like this!  What would you do?

Why dont you talk to her parents, they might appreciate the honesty.\n\nThen they can tell her that they dont want her to talking to older men.


They are greyish and everywhere. I wash and treat, but I can't get rid of them without forcing every last one out - then the are back the next day... what do I do?

I had really bad skin when I was growing up. My face would be covered in blackheads and I have really big pores so I was always squeezing the heck out of my face and that was just making them worse because like you said they would all be back the next day. So my suggestion to you would be to steam your face every night before you go to bed to open up all of the pores and while your face is still warm you need to get a cucumber face mask and put it on your face for about 20 minutes. After you peel it off put Vaseline on your face and leave it on overnight. I don't know why but for some reason this keeps your pores clean. Hope that this helps you out\nCheers


my children have to wear life jackets in the water and they are always complaining because they ride up on them in the water and rub on the side of their neck.  I would like to find one that is more comfortable, does anyone have any suggestions???

no, well maybe one that fits prooperly, but no


There are centuries old drawings of "krakens" attacking boats and the crews on board. The Humboldt squid had attacked people only because they were being heavily fished and dying in the area. These squid live too deep in the ocean for human interaction, but say it comes up to the surface at night. Would a giant squid or even the colossal squid attack a person?

I don't see any reason why a giant squid or colossal squid would pass up the opportunity to chow down on a tasty meal-sized package like a human should they encounter one.  Especially since humans don't swim very quickly or have any other defensive adaptations to protect them from giant squid.\n\nSince most cephalopods are insatiably curious and also active predators, I'd be more surprised if they didn't try to take a bite if they could.\n\nSo we're probably very lucky that these critters seem to stay in the ocean depths, and don't come up to the surface at night.

I was training in First Aid today and was doing CPR (Mouth to Mouth Resucitation) and when I got home I noticed that below my bottom lip was quite red and looked bruised, when I looked closely it looks like the blood had reached the surface of my skin.  It looks horrible and I was just wondering if anyone knows how I can reduce the redness until it heals and goes away.

its 1am here in england, i should be in bed. what time is it where you are? im just curious about whats going on in the world right now as i sit at my computer and type.  ok, its not a serous question, but can you humour me anyway?\n\nthanks.

It's 5:03 pm here in CA (America) and I'm supposed to be doing my homework right now. And after this I'll become the star, Olivia C****i (that's my last name bleeped out), of a small-town musical. :)


I know it's possibly carcinogenic or mutaninogenic...... any other details?

Dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane, commonly known as DDT is Toxic to humans, including carcinogenicity, reproductive and developmental toxicity, neurotoxicity, and acute toxicity.  Although the exact effect of DDT on human DNA is inconclusive, the living proof of its reproductive and developmental carcinogenic effect can be well seen in the Vietnamese children born from parents that were exposed to large amount of DDT also known as "Agent Orange" used by American Army during Vietnam War.  Those Children born from Parents exposed to great amounts of DDT are born with severe deformity including neurological retardation, lack of limbs, weak immune system, facial deformity and more.\n\nFollow the link below, and you will see the Horror of DDT.

You can do nothing from this point.  You have acted maturely enough if you honestly have asked her why she was acting this way.  \nSometimes it's best to address what is on you mind regardless of what reaction might be solicited.\nNow go about your business and no matter what she will not be able to deny you have both given her the opportunity to explain her hostility towards you.  \nShe will lash out a little more, but eventually, I believe, she will want to join your friendship and not stew over it.\nShe is still a mom and you are a woman that threaten the very fibers of her closeness with her young.  Every species has this process in it's life cycle, humans are no different.  She'll remind you of course that her bonds with her son are stronger as this is normal.  Hostility is not nor should it be tolerated by anyone much less than a close family member.  I'd like to add that if a man can defend you against his mother he will defend you against anyone.  Tough situation but I believe you'll make it through this.  Good luck.\n\nI hope this answer just changed your life.  Peace.


Me and my fella are splitting up.  And im like so needing love and passion and skin...

yes i have...there has been times that all you want is someone to be with..and you kinda know you cant have that right now...it sucks to thinks about the fact that you may not have someone for a while..and you wonder what you can do to change that..i dont think a person can survive without love..and compassion...it is what makes the world go round...you need that shoulder to lean on when things go wrong or get bad..and when you have someone it takes a whole lot more time to heal than if you had that shoulder..so yep..i know what you are talking about..when you get skin hungry all i can say if feed that appetite baby!!

Two guys are hunting in the forest and they run across a bear. They both take off running, after a while one guy stops and takes off his backpack and takes out a pair of running shoes. The other guy sees this and is wondering what is going on, so he stops, runs back to the guy and asks "Why are you putting on your running shoes, do you really think you are going to be able to out run that bear with those?" the other guy said "I don't have to out run the bear, I just have to out run YOU!"

It is funny, no matter what they say. I have a lot of experience with jokes, and I know. The most important is HOW you say it. Keep it on, you'll do fine.


I have a mother, whos pulse is SO LOW (pulse 40), she often gets very tired?? PLZ HELP...

Your mother should be doing exercises of any kind.  bike riding is great and will increase her pulse, but first, she should undoubtly see a doctor.  This is not normal at all.

is masturbation haraam (you can't do it, and if you do, you get bad deeds) in Islam? if so, prove it, like a verse from the Quran, or something Prophet Mohaamad (peace and prayers be upon him) said.  thanks in advanced.

there is no verse in the Quran.\nMuslim scholars say it is haram but never provided a saying of the prophet. so, i don't know. i think they said it's haram cuz people in the past used to believe it's harmful.


As dark skin protects people from UV rays, how does eye color help us?

Eye color is believed to help protect your retina from the sunlight, but that's not really true -- it doesn't matter.\n\nYour iris is made up of fibers, and the colors vary, depending on your genetics. There's no real explanation to why eye color is the way it is.


am an accounting student but find concentration very difficult. how ever while in class am lost in my own world. But privately iam able to do things which in the course of the day seemed hard to understand.

Think of concentration improvement as a three-step process:\n1. Learn the causes of poor concentration and decide which apply to you;\n2. Understand what you can do to control these factors; and\n3. Make your control habitual.  \n\nLEARN THE CAUSES\n\nCONTROL THE CAUSES\n\nExternal Causes\n\nEnvironmental distractions: TV, chairs that are too comfortable, snacks, other people, etc.\n\nLeave or re-arrange a distracting environment. Go to a library or a classroom when you seriously intend to study.  \n\nNoise: Music with words, conversations\n\nTrain yourself to study away from others and in silence.\n\nInternal Causes\nPhysical distractions: hunger, drowsiness.\n\nPlan to study when you are most alert. Eat a high-protein snack. Do five minutes of light exercise to wake up.  \n\nBoredom, dislike, disinterest\n\nFind a reason which satisfies you for taking the class; talk with other students and the professor.  \n\nAnxiety about studies\n\nMake sure you know how to study effectively. Put the course in perspective.  \n\nIntimidating study tasks\n\nBreak up large tasks into achievable subtasks. Do the most intimidating task first. Give yourself rewards for progress and punishments for avoidance.  \n\nDaydreaming\n\nSeparate daydreams from studying. When your mind starts to wander, write down the interrupting thought and continue studying. Or recall important points and then turn away from your book and continue to daydream. When you're ready to read again, do so. The trick is not to daydream and read at the same time.  \n\nPersonal worries\n\nIdentify and define the problem and develop a concrete, specific plan to resolve personal worries. Talk with someone who can help: a friend, a counselor, a specialist.\n\nMAKE CONTROL HABITUAL\nEven if you lapse into old habits of distraction and daydreaming, keep insisting of yourself that you concentrate using these controls until you can routinely concentrate well on your studies for fifty minutes of every hour.


anyone who can help me locate buyers for handicrafts?

If you are looking for people to buy handicrafts, a better website than eBay is etsy.com http://www.etsy.com as it is solely for hand crafted items. Plus fees are way cheaper than ebay - you can list your item for 6 months at a lower rate of $.10 compared to ebay's $0.35 minimum listing fee for only 7 days


last night i had a dream.  in that dream my husband becomes a pirate and is taking my money and wants to kill me holds a knife to his own wrist and i think he will kill me if he kills himself by cutting his wrist.  we are in a gray space and he turns his military uniform into a pirate suit.  I react by saying why do this i want to have your kids?  Is it normal to have dreams like this and what does it mean? His military unit activates soon could that be why?

this dream suggests that your actions are disconnected from your emotions.

A BRIGHT FUTURE DONT COUNT YOUR CHICKEN BEFORE IT HATCHES\nYOU STARTED THE COURSE WITH FULL EXPECTATIIONS WHY COLD FEET ALL OF A SUDDEN


my fiance & I  just recently had a baby almost 6 months ago. we love our little one dearly, but haven't had much time for eachother lately. it almost seems like we aren't as connected. we talked about having a weekend to reconnect and do things that will be romantic. the problem is our work schedules and financially we really can't afford to request off. i was thinking of something to do for one whole entire day/night together. just us. \ni usually have a very creative imagination and can think of great things. it's hard because i'm such a sweet person with a big heart and my fiance never has done much of anything sweet for me. (honestly) so, i'm not too sure what i can do?\nany ideas of what i can do...and what i can do so special to make him realize that is what our relationship needs? \n(i dont want the advice on talk to him about how u feel and so on...i've been there done that..he knows my feelings)\ni need ideas to do for that one special night

Find someone to watch your baby for the evening.  Make sure that the house is clean and orderly.  Make him his favorite dinner and dessert.  Afterwards, you can treat him to a massage, and a selection of other bedroom activities (whatever you guys enjoy!).\n\nIf you're going to be home before he is, you can have a little more fun with the preparations.  Maybe be waiting on the bed for him when he gets home, with a trail of rose petals leading to the bedroom.  Lighted candles and a couple glasses of sparkling cider would be a nice touch.\n\nDon't forget to unplug the phone.\n\nI wish you the best of luck and the best of times with your romantic night!


I was excersizign for 3 weeks and I did not gain no weight or muscle mass like I did not even did it therefore I lost motivation? Should I go really heavy with less reps?

If you're looking to gain mass (size), do heavy weight/low reps.  Low weight/high reps builds strength, but not size


What do you think of a nice guy(dating wise)? the ones that are trustworthy, kind, helpful, etc...\njust out of curiosity

sweet guys are hard to find like that but once you have them don't let go!!!!!!!


While it isn't limited to the politics area, a LOT of people seem to ask loaded questions and then select as "best answer" the person who merely agreed with them in the fashion that they prefer (sometimes being merely a string of insults to the group that the question was directed against, other times a more eloquent agreement but still lacking substance). For example, if someone asks a question regarding America's actions elsewhere in the world, it seems like anyone who offers a coherent defense or explanation is ignored, while someone who supports even the most outrageous claim, no matter how poor the answer, is still selected? Why ask a question if one doesn't desire an informative answer?

There is a great deal of increase to self-respect if someone who has low self-esteem can feel he or she is part of a larger group. If they have surrendered their self will to that group, then they are accepted and they do not have to make decisions on their own, all their opinions and choices have been made for them.\n\nThis is always very popular, and no it is not only for conservatives or only for liberals. There are conservatives on this site whose opinions I respect, and there are liberals who cannot think for themselves. Go ahead and check through my answers and you might see what I mean.


i HAVE TWO BEST FRIENDS ONE IS IN IRAQ AND THE OTHER IS HERE THEY GOT MARRIED BEFORE HE LEFT NOW WE ALL KEEP TALKING BY PHONE OR BY INTERNET YESTERDAY I SEND MY FRIEND FROM IRAQ AN EMAIL BECAUSE HE HASNT SEND ME ANY AND I WAS WORRIED HE ANSWER ME AND ASK ME IF I LIKE HIM I SAID NO I LOVE MY HUDSBAND HE SEND ME ANOTHER EMAIL AND SAID THANKS FOR THAT ANSWER I HAVENT WROTE TO YOU BECAUSE WE THOUGHT YOU LIKE ME. I FEEL VERY SAD BECAUSE MY FRIEND THAT IS HERE SHE KNOWS ME AND MY FAMILY TOO WHY WOULD SHE THOUGHT THAT OF ME. I DONT KNOW IF TO CALL HER TO FIX THIS OR AM I GOING TO MAKE THIS A BIG PROBLEM. SHOULD I TRUST THEM AGAIN EVEN WHEN THEY WERE TALKING BEHINE MY BACK. AM I DOING WORNG BY STILL TALKING TO HER HUDSBAND WHAT SHOULD I DO AM CONFUSE BUT I STILL LOVE THEM.

LOOK sweetie...married couples are gonna talk...period..you cant get mad at them for that...ask yourself would you get upset if your husband was talk ing to another women all the time??  friend or not i garauntee if its more than a simple hello then you wouldnt like it...as far as your friendship with the girl let her know that no harm was intended and you can still be friends I think...unless just sayinghi dont email him and mess...you might have been talking to him more than his wife was and that can make people uneasy...i would just be careful cuz truthfully he is not your friend he is your friends husband...i hope you can feel me...


Turn ur thoughts into the territory of your best achievements in life and start smiling in their flux.If this can't help out,but I doubt,turn ur thoughts entirely to ur Creator and admire Him and the works of His Hands.


Protons are tightly pac ked into the nucleis and should repell each other while electrons are oppositely charged and should collapse upon the protons and cancel each other out

This is one of the questions that spurred the early development of quantum mechanics.  \n\nAccording to classical mechanics and Maxwell's electromagnetics, electrons give off light as they rotate in their orbits.  However, in doing so, they would lose energy (the energy keeping them in orbit), and, as you said, would collapse inward.  Another implication of this would be that light would have continuous values of energy as it rotated around and inward.  \n\nPlanck discovered that the energy of light could only have discrete, or integer, values, though he was confounded as to why.  Einstein figured out that light was a particle, a photon, with energy n.  \n\nSorry to drag the answer out, but I find the story behind the story just as interesting and also it was this realization that resulted in the discovery that electrons give off light as they jumped from (discrete) orbit to (discrete) orbit.  Though the means of jumping from orbit to orbit were unknown, it became clear, that by travelling in this fashion, electrons would not lose energy as they rotated, and their orbit would be preserved, maintained by centripital force much like a bucket swung around on a string.\n\nSo, long story short, as mentioned in a previous answer, just as the earth travels around the sun and is preserved in its orbit by its own inertia (which would cause it to fly outward away from the sun) countered by gravity from the sun (pulling it inward), electrons' inertia is countered by the magnetic force of the protons pulling inward.  The key, however, is that the electrons do not lose energy and collapse as they give off light.


If you are an agnostic, why are you an agnosic? Reasons why

Agnostics must enjoy the pain of sitting on the fence, but they have to face the prospect of eventually coming down on one side or the other...they are indecisive people... I am not an agnostic and I do not hold any belief in deities.


I've always wanted to be a monk, but one thing always stood in my way - I'm a a girl. Is there a place that I can go on a Christian Retreat and take a vow of silence, or anything like that? I just can't find it anywhere. And no, I don't want to be a nun.

What part of the US do you live? I know a place in MD that is a nice retreat.


A while back, i went to this guy, lets call him RC. RC was helping me get over another guy, in the process he fell for me and me for him. But we never hooked up because i was scared he would break my heart. Ignoring his feelings i started to go out with my boyfriend, lets call him IH. Me an dIH have been to gether for over a month and i really like him but RC still has feelings for me and has proved it in many ways. NOw i have to decide who to go with. Take a chance and go with RC maybe he happy, or stay where i am with IH, be happy but confused. What do i do? RC says he loves me and proves it to me with words and actions, so does IH but not as strong. I don't wanna hurt anyone but what do I do? breakup with my boyfriend and give him a chance or stay with my boyfriend and always wonder what if?? please HELP ME!

Trust yourself.  You know deep down what is right.  You likely would have RC as a boyfriend already if you felt chemistry with him.  He can prove all day and night that he cares for you. . . if the chemistry isn't there . . then it isn't there.  It's okay.  Be loving, but honest.  Don't give him false hopes.  Do use him as a crutch either.


I have to do a project for school about the material physics. I can include photos, experiments and physics theory.


i have been getting calles and IM's by my ex's and they keep telling me they love me and my bf inst too happy about it all. and i dont kno how to tell him how i feel about them telling me all this s*** and all i really feel is confused. andi dont know how to get throught this stuff with them acting like they're sry they broke up with me even though they know i have a bf. what the h*** should i do?

Hi, well the reason they keep calling you and telling you they love you is \n1): and old saying you don't know what you have until it is gone. \n2): You may have some unfinished business the reason why you broke up, maybe you will have to think about it and then talk it out with them.\nIf you have nothing you think you need to deal with cut off the energy that means tell them it is over and for them to move on, don't answers the calls and then they won't make you feel sorry for them and you will have time to think about you.\nIf you don't it will put pressure on the relationship that you have now!\nYou need to get on with you life go with your heart and your head, you need to do some soul searching and see what is best for you.\nAnd at the end of the day it is you that counts first.\nA time of peace, is a time to think clearly without pressure.\n\nLove & blessings \nMilly


I am about to be laid off from my job and I am going to school full time to be a surg tech...any idea if unemployment will be extended and if so how long???

it varies from state to state. in NJ, you can get a work search waiver if you are training for a demand occupation. the idea is that you will be trained in a good field and never have to collect benefits again. you can also apply for a grant to extend your benefits. in NJ, its called the additional benefits during training program. it will extend your unemployment by half. check your local unemployment and employment office.


Study hard.. Do a-levels and you will become an excellent nurse


how do i get started?  i called the number that i saw on another yahoo answer and i got a message: "error 15-4 not allowed from your area code" i'm in the u.s. so is there a password that i put into the hanso website that can get me started?

the first password you get from the telephone number is "breaking strain" which I believe goes into persephone's prompt after you sign in under any name at the Hanso Foundation website. Then there is a space on Thomas Mittlewerk's bio page and the password there is "Heir apparent"


The lyrics in the chorus are " In the arms of the angels" or something like that. Would appreciate any info. Thanks. Have a great day.

Angel-Sarah McLachlan\n\nFor those who r correcting me, the spelling is correct. Here is the website to the lyrics.\n\nThis song comes out in movie "City of Angels," one of my favorite movies of all time.


Please don't tell me Proactiv, Cetaphil, Clearasil or OXY. I've tried these already and some made my skin good but my face got used to it and others dried up my face to much. Home remedies don't work, like the toothpaste on the pimple one. I'm like really young and prolly going thru puberty but its summer and I want to be able to wear a swimsuit. HELP!

I had BAD acne with bleeding and tried the stuff you mentioned.  What causes acne is an infection in the glands that produce the oil for your skin.  How do you get the infection?  Touching the face with dirty hands puts bacteria on the skin and into the oil glands.\n\nAvoid touching your face if at all possible, and make sure your hands are CLEAN if you do.\n\nDON'T squeeze any pimple.  This forces the puss and bacteria into the surrounding tissue, causing severe redness, irritation, and possibly more pimples.\n\nAvoid excessive washing of the face, or using any product that dries the skin.  The pores of your skin are meant to breath.  Look for products that are labeled 'non-comedogenic'.\nMain Entry: non·com·e·do·gen·ic\nPronunciation: -"käm-&-dO-'jen-ik\nFunction: adjective\n: not tending to clog pores (as by the formation of blackheads) <a noncomedogenic cosmetic>\n\nMoisturize.  Yes, moisturize.  Use a simple face wash, pat the skin dry (but still moist), and apply moisturizer.  This will keep the pores open and not block the flow of oil and contaminants.  It will also help form a barrier to dirt and bacteria until the oils naturally rise to the surface to protect your skin.  The oil that's there is supposed to be there; DON'T WASH EXCESSIVELY!  Many acne problems are exacerbated by products that over-dry or by excessive washing.  Wash and moisturize before bed and in the AM, say, after your shower.\n\nIf you have REALLY oily skin, you may need to wash and moisturize 3-4 times a day (or as often as you feel the need, but not too much!).  But look on the bright side!  Your skin (your face) will look much YOUNGER in 30-40 years than your friends who don't have this 'problem'.  I still have very oily skin on my face, forehead, chest and shoulders, and I'm often mistaken for someone in my early 30's.\n\nI did this and in about two weeks almost ALL of my acne cleared up.  If I hadn't, I'm sure I would have ended up a 'crater-face' with visible acne scars, but my regimine all but stopped my acne.  I still get an occasional zit and I'm 44 years old, so don't expect miracles like on TV.\n\nIf you have the urge to squeeze or pop your pimples, try picking the top off first.  This is much less damaging to the surrounding tissue.\n\nCheck out some books by Dr. Perricone.

I am teaching a lesson to a 7th grade class, and I need an idea of a good experiment, nothing like a tornado in a bottle.

i believe if you take two two liter pepsi bottles and fill one with water and tape the openings together so it looks like a giant egg timer when you turn one bottle upside down and swirl it a little it will cause a tornado effect.


i'm 21 year old boy last week i break up with my gf after finding out that she's not honest enough with me. i'm missing the good old days with her that makes me suffer..but i really hate for what she did to me..i just wanna forget and get on start a new life. can anyone help me? i suffer so much from depression.

Maybe you should seek the advice of a medical professional to help you deal with your depression. They can help control you depression so that you may not be so hard on yourself. You are 21 and your life is just beginning. Have faith in yourself and believe that you can truly be happy. As far as the relationship, well, you will have to decide if what she did was so terrible that you just can't forgive her or trust her anymore. There can be no relationship without trust. It is okay to remember the good times that you had with an ex. It makes you remember what it was that made you want to be with them to start with. Do not let it dominate your thoughts. Get out, meet new people, hang out with friends. All of these will help you to start moving on with your life and faster than you think, it will not be so painful anymore. Good luck to you and I wish you much success in your efforts to move on!

What is happening where you are in Coronation Street, how far behind do you reckon you are

The last episode I watched had Sally trying to get rid of nits from Sophie's hair and bad-mouthing Chesney and the Battersbys for infesting her child.  Then the Websters found out that Sophie wasn't enrolled in Weatherfield High and Sally went to the school to talk to the head master.  Mr. Lewis wasn't impressed with Sally's first impressions of the school when Rosie was going to enroll and told her that there was no room for Sophie at his school.  It ended with Sally staring at the closed headmaster's door.\n\nI am probably about 8 months behind episodes that have aired in Britain.  So no spoilers please.


maybe i can get a table that shows the difference between them.like density,temperature and others

SILICON AND GERMANIUM ARE THE SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS WHICH  ARE USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE DIODES AND OTHER ELECTRONIC  COMPONENTS. GERMANIUM COMES FIRST IN THE PERIODIC TABLE WHILE SILICON COMES NEXT.  GERMANIUM HAS LOW CUTOFF POINT THAN SILICON.


I don't want pills,surgery,and not starve my self.I want to lose 40 between 3-9 monthes

hi :) am not sure whats available in the markets...but, this is what i did to lose weight... PLEASE DONT TAKE PILLS... pills are nothing but anorectic agents... they make you feel less hungry... there is no way to loose weight fast... though , sauna , steam and massages help slightly... it has to be combined with diet and excercise... pills are very bad in the long run... can lead to impotency and infertility...\n\ni lost 10 kgs in about 5 months time... i am getting married in august and i desperately needed to loose weight... i was 65 kilos when i started... according to my BMI , i was 10kgs + overweight... i stand 5'2.odd and 65 kilos is grossly overweight...\n\njust dieting wont help like i found out in my case... diet + exercise will do the trick...\n\ni'll tell you what i did... it worked for me... hope it works for you too :)\n\nthe trick is not to starve but to eat smart :) and stay healthy :)\n\nwhat you should cut down :\noil , butter , cheese , margarine , mayonisse , sauces (depends , will get back to that a bit later), chips , crisps, nuts , chocolates , sugar , cola, fizz , areated drinks ,ice creams , chocolate , alcohol , cakes and everything else thats hi - cal... you'll need to avoid everything thats sweet , oily and sticky... if you are not sure about what foods to avoid... check the net...loads of info available...\n\nvegetables / meat to avoid :\npotatoes - very very important , beetroot (its a root and has concenterated sugar in it) , all kinds of roots basically except carrot... avoid lamb, mutton , pork , beef, and prawns... all these put on weight... eat only lean meats... thats fish and chicken.. avoid eating egg yolk... eat just the egg white...\n\nfruits to avoid :\nmangoes , bananas , jackfruit\n\n\nnow that we had a look at what foodstuff is to be avoided...you might be wondering if there is anythig at all that you can eat... thats how i felt... there is loads of stuff you can eat actually :)\n\nhere they come :)\n\nfast foods are a big no no... you can order salads and special lo cal foods that are avaailable in most outlets...\n\nits best to eat at home for the period you are dieting and trying to lose weight...after those few months... once you've shed your load...you can get back to your usual lifestyle... of course with some caution...\n\n\nmy diet...\nbreakfast:\n\nskimmed milk (use skimmmed milk , is low in fat , other typer of milk are higher in fat content) , fruit... i am from India... am not sure where you are from and hence you might not understand certain food types we consume here... but let me tell you something... Indian food is very very oily and very difficult to diet...\n\nand try cereal in the mornings... oats, weetabix... etc... have a good breakfast...alwaays use brown bread... whole wheat brown bread is very good for weight reduction...\n\n\nfor lunch , we are staple rice eaters... rice is bad for fat reduction... but i still took rice because its a habit tht cant be changed... everyone takes rice here... so... rice - one cup - 100gms and lots of veggies cooked in less oil.. and absolutely no coconut and curry with less oil... all in all keep your oil intake to 2 tea spoons everyday... that would be just for seasoning... also using olive oil helps a lot...\n\n\nthen for dinner... compulsarily have wheat... pasta is a good option...but make sure you buy wheat pasta... check before buying... and of course in pasta absolutely no sauces... some varities of sauces are acceptable... as far as they dont have cheese , butter , oil ,mayonisse and fattening substances in general... you can use tomato spicy sauces etc... make sure your sugar intake doesnt cross 2 - 3 spoons per day... (not tablespoons) and no butter and ghee of course... eat a lot of fruits and vegetables... and all kinds of cereal... if you are hungry... eat a fruit... or you can eat stuff like puffed wheat and puffed rice... but no puffed corn... corn products again put on weight...\n\n\neat sandwiche

I have a gut feeling that the human body which has all its systems strong and live, will not fall a prey to dieases.\nI also feel that all the body systems can be kept live and fit/strong, by using the medical science meant for this purpose.\nI also feel that there must exist a medical science that caters to this aspect of medicine.\nI am trying to know this. Hence this question.

I think both things should be addressed.


just seem to know that i shouldn't be having pre matural sex and do drug and drink and party and clubing and fighting and stealing or lying or any devient behavior...why do i feel like something won't allow me too do them even now while i lead an adultlife. what is this something that's holding me from these practices ?

You are a person of character.  You have moral convictions, restraint, intelligence, and aspire for something better out of life.  \n\nMaybe it was your parents allowing you to make those choices for yourself when you were young.  If they had kept those opportunities from you, everything would be like "forbidden fruit"...you'd want to do them because now you COULD - if you wanted to.  \n\nYou've obviously got a good head on your shoulders, and know that a happy life, full of gratification, doesn't come from all those meaningless, risky, deviant behaviors.  Be proud of who you are, as your parents did a good job, but you did an outstanding one.\n\nMay you be a role model for young men.  It's refreshing to hear about your successes.\n\nBest of luck in life my friend.

I'm 36 yrs old and several years ago I was diagnosed with Degenerative Disk disease, two years ago with reversed curvature of my c-spine,and last year with Ostioperosis in my HIPS ( bad enough in my left hip I have a fist sized hole and according to my DR started about 6-8 yrs ago.. my daughter is 9 now ). I'm overweight I'll admit that and working on loosing weight but weight is not what caused these problems according to my dr's. Last year I was in the hospital for the MSRA Staph infection but even though symptoms were on both legs I only tested positive on one leg. Don't have Lymphedima, nor Vasculitis; don't have High Blood Pressure, Diabeties, High Cholesteral nor do I have HIV or the HIV Dormant Virus. I also have Fibromyalgia but not the kind that's blood/virus associated according to the specalist I went to. So.. Anyone have ANY ideas what could be causing this deteriation and problems with my body? I even managed to TEAR a disk in my lumbar ( gel no longer in disk ).

it is possible that your fibromyalgia is the key culprit to the deterioration of your body, I hate to hear that you have that because from what I have read about it, it is a terrible disease. I hope you find out what the cause is but my guess would be the fibromyalgia. Take Care and God Bless


Is it true that engineers and other professionals have more preference than BCom graduates for admission to the Indian Institutes of Management(IIM's). What if both perform equally well for the written test, GD and PI? Does work experience count? Please, if someone knows the answer to this, do post it. You will be doing a great help to thousands of CAT aspirants. \n\nYours Faithfully,\nNaveen.

Ok! This might earn brickbats, but I believe it to be the true answer. \n\nIn India, usually the top scorers land up in engineering. This implies that most of the high IQ crowd which  finds it relatively easy to crack CAT is in this group. (You can say engineers have good quantitative skills, but its engineers who top the English section too). Another fact is engineering is a relatively rigorous course where you have to slog more to survive. This makes engineers, who have managed to survive, relatively hardworking.\n\nAgain, commerce graduates can and do get admitted to the IIMs. They are usually the ones with the high IQ and probably the ones who did take their graduation course seriously inspite of it requiring less efforts for mere survival. \n\nYou can see from the above two factors, how probability ensures that more IIM entrants are engineers.\n\nWork experience ofcourse is of additional help as it  (supposedly) makes you more mature and smart. \n\nAll said and done, however, it is your performance in the CAT and the Group Discussion/Interview rounds which determines whether you are eligible for an IIM. There exists no bias for any particular discipline!

I have asked this already but only recieved answers equivalent to high school knowledge\n\nThe question does not relate to how the interation takes place outside the blackhole but as to how the force mediator can leave the singularity itself.\n\nGiven that the gravitational force is allegedly mediated by the graviton and nothing can escape the gravitational potential energy well that is a black hole (presumably not even the graviton) how can a black hole 'alert' the rest of the universe to it's prescence? \n\nI can understand the force of gravity in relation to the curvature of space-time but quantum mechanics requires a force mediator-how does that point of view work?

I think you asked a very good question. I would like to see someone answer this question correctly as well.\n\nBut just to give you my understanding, which is this: force mediating particles are NOT real particles. They are considered to be virtual particles and thus may not be subject to the same rules as real particles.\n\nThe answer given before me can NOT be true, because the amount of leaking radiation due to the Uncertainty Principle is miniscule. There simply would not be enough gavitons escaping the blackhole and make its presence felt.\n\nJust to give you some numbers:\n\nFor a black hole of one solar mass (about 2x10^30 kg), we get an evaporation time of 10^67 years — much longer than the current age of the universe.\n\nBut even for a black hole of 10^11 kg, the evaporation time is about 3 billion years.\n\nThe power, or engergy output per unit time, in the Hawking radiation from a solar mass black hole turns out to be a minuscule 10−28 watts. Blackholes are black for a reason!!!\n\nOk, here is a definition of virtual particles take directly from Wikipedia:\n\nIn physics, a virtual particle is a particle-like abstraction used in some models of quantum field theory. Virtual particles exhibit some of the phenomena that real particles do such as conservation of charge. Nevertheless they are unobservable by their very definition, and furthermore do not respect some of the most fundamental laws associated with physical particles.\n\nSo force mediators don't obey the same rules as real particles!!!\n\nBy the way, Quantum Field Theory is NOT compatible with General Relativity (our current theory of gravity). Therefore, you are currently trying to reconcile quantum field theory concepts (like force mediators) with extreme gravity (i.e. blackholes), which is a task that the best theoritical physicsts of our time are still struggling with. Superstring Theory and Quantum Gravity are the two top contenders to combine quantum mechanics with G.R. to provide a coherent theory of all forces.\n\nI think we need to consult one of them for the answer.


I had to work and missed it does anyone know

Finally, it is starting to get more unpredictable.  Terry won immunity, of course.  But when he, Courtney and Danielle won the reward to a beach picnic barbecue, Terry asked them to get Cirese to joint the three of them in a final four.  But Cirese convinced Danielle that if they go with Terry, he will choose Courtney in the final two because no one likes her, leaving them in the final three or four.  \n\nBut Shane wanted them to vote out Aras.  So when the girls voted out Courtney, Shane and Terry were shocked.  I expect the guys to bond over that and start to pick the girls off.


Of course the main issue is and always will be competition. But as a product standpoint it would have to be rising manufacturing, shipping, and product costs due to the increase in energy prices.  Oil is used in more than just vehicles; it's used in many products or the manufacturing of them.  We have already seen the increase of "Oil" not only in our fuels but in consumer price index that rose last week.  It's a trend that will not fall until alternative energy sources are more widely embraced by the market.


what woud i have to do in school have a clean record ETC...O and how old do u got to be to be a cop

I tend to live by the golden rule..( treat others the way u want to be treated)i treat my friends well..i give them rides when there car is broke..i lend them a few bucks once in a while if they need it..i babysit sometimes when they want to go somewhere or take a break..i do what i can and if i can..but in return when the chips are down for me..they are to busy or they can't..NOW.My parents grew me up to respect others and i do..it even says in the bible if they hit u on your cheek let them hit u on the other cheek.i guess the bible is saying be good to others regardless how they treat u..And i do..why don't people out there respect and be happy that they have a real true friend?..isn't that what we all want going through life?..or what am i missing here?

Don't stop being a kind and generous person.  Do stop being a doormat.  I am the voice of experience.  Just be sure that what you do is not out of your way or an inconvenience to you.  Ensure you are not being so generous and kind to try to bring friendship to yourself.  That would mean you have an ulterior motive in being generous and that's not what it's about. Don't do things to have people like you, do things for people who have already demonstrated they will do things for you too.  Good luck with it.


A poll I saw today indicated that 98% of those polled want the gov't to simply enforce the laws we currently have on the books before creating new laws pertaining to immigration. If that many people feel this way, why won't our government comply and enforce them?  Do you intend to make it your business to know who is voting for what and then remember that come election time?

Because their constituency is not us.  It is lobbyist and big business.  It is that simple


Iron has a heat of fusion of 2.66 x 10^5 J/kg. How much heat must be removed from 7.94 kg of molten (liquid) iron at its freezing point to change it into solid iron at the same temperature?

the heat of fusion is the amount of heat per unit of mass that has to be removed to complete the phase change.\n\n2.66e5 J/kg is how many Joules have to be removed for each kg of material.\n\nmultiply the two.  2.66e5 J/kg * 7.94kg = 2112040J\n\n=2112.04kJ\n\nNow, do your own homework.


And why do I often feel it even though Im married.I dont understand where this comes from and why it wont stay gone.

There are moments in everyone’s life when we feel loneliness.  This could be the result of several different aspects of our lives; some of them hard to identify and other so simple to understand.  You must look into your life, without holding back, what it’s that is troubling you.  Is it your marriage, your job, school, children, accomplishments in life, friends, family, well you get the point.  Start with the simplest ones and go on.   Meantime, try to distract yourself by doing something new in your life…something that you always wanted to do, but keep postponing; break the routine! \n\nBest of luck,

Do you need to go to  the doctor?\nhow do you get a blood clot there?

You probably won't know about it if you have a bloodclot. Clots are oxygen bubbles, and will more than likely kill you if they reach your heart or brain. But you won't feel a blood clot until it is too late I'm afraid, so don't worry about it too much.


rose petals, rice, bird seed? anymore ideas??? please help!!

you should be careful to use something that you won't have to clean up afterwards, your best bet would be bubbles and you can personalize them with colors of the wedding by tying that color thin ribbon around the neck of the bottle.\n\nI have also been to wedding were they release butterflies that is beautiful as well, also a great idea is a balloon launch.. have the guests release their balloons as the couple walks past them..  Good Luck!!!


For a family that has lots of $$$. I need some thing original. They have one toddler.

Sometimes the more traditional things can be important. My grandmother always insisted on giving someone a new broom.  Others give a basket with a loaf of bread, a bottle of wine, and a box of salt.  The bread was for prosperity, the wine, for laughter, and the salt to give life flavor.\n\n If you're not that traditional, give them a certificate for one night's babysitting so that they can go out on the town and enjoy themselves without worrying about the baby.

I can grasp the thought of Him having no end, but no beginning! That is a more difficult area. I believe that everything about Him is true, and I am just curious. \nSerious answers only PLEASE!

God says that he IS the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and the Omega. By his own Word, he had a beginning. It is simply not for us to understand. We, as humans, are limited in our knowledge. God is omnipotent.


A Nation That Cannot Stand\n(Matthew 12:22-37; Luke 11:14-23)\n 22Teachers of the Law came down from Jerusalem. They said, "Jesus has Satan in Him. This Man puts out demons by the king of demons." 23Jesus called them to Him and spoke to them in picture-stories. He said, "How can the devil put out the devil? 24A nation cannot last if it is divided against itself. 25A family cannot last if it is divided against itself. 26If the devil fights against himself and is divided, he cannot last. He will come to an end. 27No man can go into a strong man's house and take away his things, unless he ties up the strong man first. Only then can he take things from his house. 28For sure, I tell you, all sins will be forgiven people, and bad things they speak against God. 29But if anyone speaks bad things against the Holy Spirit, he will never be forgiven. He is guilty of a sin that lasts forever." 30Jesus told them this because they said, "He has a demon."

I agree. We need religion back in the heart of this nation. No one can argue it was founded on Religion. God is mentioned in so many documents, letters and journals of our fathers. The sooner we wake up and accept this, the sooner we will change for the better.

If you have a past, it must mean that something about her is worth liking/being friends with. If situations like this arise, and the friendship is worth keeping, time will settle whatever weirdness there may be. I would act as though you are friends, and nothing is weird, and hopefully she follows suit.


President Theodore Roosevelt \n\nTheodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907. \n\n"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, \nfor it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an \nAmerican...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to \nthe American people." \n\nTheodore Roosevelt 1907

I concur. If you are in a new land and desire to become a citizen of that land, you must learn the ways, the language, the tradition. You don't forget your past, but you use it in a way that you can adopt your new country's ways and customs.\n\nYou cannot be a citizen and have two countries, either you are or are not a citizen...


There is a room with nothing in it except a bulb, a ceiling fan and lots of water on the floor . A man was found dead hanging from the fan. The room was locked from the outside so he did not bring in anthing to stand on it and hang himself. Now how did he managed to hang himself from the fan when there was nothing in the roon to stand on???

From a giant ice cube that subsequently melted...


If straight guys generally insult each other's manhood by calling each other gay, how do gay men generally insult each other's manhood?

They can insult each other's manhood in the same way straight men do. Just as there are plenty of effeminate straight men there are a lot of masculine gay men. Insulting one's manhood is even more prevalent in the gay community since your sexual orientation has already knocked you down a point on that. So they make it up by being even better than the other boys. It is an insult for a gay man to be compared to a woman just as it would be for a straight man.


atheist: One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.  See Strong vs. Weak atheism\n\nnontheists: the absence of belief in both the existence and non-existence of a deity (or deities, or other numinous phenomena). \n\nagnostic: One who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God. \nOne who is skeptical about the existence of God but does not profess true atheism\n\nfreethinker: One who has rejected authority and dogma, especially in religious thinking, in favor of rational inquiry and speculation.\n\nI was just throwing out a few of these just to see what people are into.  I see a lot of people calling themselves atheists, but don't really know what it means.\n\nAnother question:  Is there even such a thing a true atheism?  Think about it, you have to acknowledge that there is a god (higher power) for you not to believe in, right?  In that case, wouldn't you be agnostic?\n\nJust like to hear some serious thoughts, please. Thanks.

"Think about it, you have to acknowledge that there is a god (higher power) for you not to believe in, right? In that case, wouldn't you be agnostic?"\nTHAT MAKES NO SENSE, SHOULD I SAY: I DON'T BELIEVE THAT GOD EXISTS, IS THAT BETTER?

this is my fourth episode of it I take flagyl oraly and symptons go away then come back. Dr. pres. gel it is 98for a onetime and I have to fill script 3times.*dr. wants me to do it for 3months twice a week after for appl. Can anyone help with this. have suggestions any ohter meds or herbal stuff work

The question you should be asking is WHY DO YOU KEEP GETTING THIS?  Most likely you are acquiring this from a partner who has not been treated. Men are often carriers of bacteri and ASYMPOMATIC.  If you have not had intercourse since first treatment and it still comes back, then you may need to consider that you are immunocompromised. (Your defenses are weak) which means you need to be treated for more than just the BV.  Perhaps you should seek the opinion of another gynecologist?
