since there probably are, would you not be their friend because they were? \nwhat does it matter what they are? \nyou should only worry about yourself. how would you feel that somebody was more wrapped up in your religion and your hertatige than the fact that you may be pretty, for example, and you may have very good relationship ethics.\nim not trying to be mean, by any means. i would just like you to know by singeling out someone (BTW im not saying you are, ok?) because of their religion or race may limit you on a very good friend or more.\ntake a step back and look at how they portray themselvs as an individual not a black, gay, jew.\ni am currently dating a guy that i have been dating for a year~ he has had a problem with homophobia in the past~ he would have never started dating me if he ever knew i had a 3some once, now he loves me and has asked me to marry him. the moral of that was that he had a revelation that i was not bad or a bad person because i was open to it or that i had done it. if he would have judged me before knowing me we would never have the relationship we have now.\nBTW im streight, white, female and 25 years old and i dont hold anything anybody else does against them. im the one that makes the choices in my life, what others do with their life is up to them. \ni was just trying to enlighten anybody else who might read this also, that just try to be as open minded as possible you never know what you might miss out on in your life.

What's the best way to approach a woman you've never met before?  What do you usually say to her to break the ice, or at least get your foot in the door?  If you are a woman, what is the most original line that has worked on you?

Look straight in her eyes. If you can look into her eyes without blinking for a while, your intentions are pure and an instant communication channel is established. After, that you can say whatever the first thing that comes to your mind. You look beautiful! Sounds Cliche! Hey it works.

What mood should there be?\nWho should do what?\nHow would you like to see both the people and the Government commemorate the day?

If you are staying in Australia - \n\nGo to the Dawn Service in your area, then watch the parade and observe one minute's silence.  After the parade, go to the local pub and have a beer and a game of 2-up.  \n\nThe mood of the day starts as a sombre commemoration of those who gave their lives as well as survivors of our armed services who are scarred by their participation.  After the formal services, it is more about celebrating our way of life.....a few beers and a game of 2-up at the pub.


It happens to me all the time at school.

Get stoned, eat some ice cream and forget about it.  Come back to it later, you'll be fine.  Above all, don't worry about it.


What are the first -few- things you notice...

Is she healthy? I look for high forehead and skinny cheekbones, clear eyes-not bloodshot, good posture, will the breasts support breast feeding, then finally looks. All of these are signs of good genetics. But the most important is personality, compassion and love but unfortunately that takes longer to notice.


Living on Mars wont happen for a long time, \nFirstly we dont have the technology so we couldnt get there even if we wanted to\nSecondly it would cost a HUGE amount of money just to get the technology and then even more money to go into space\nThirdly, the journey to Mars is a couple of months at least so it would take a long time to get there and we dont know the effects of deep space radiation on the body yet so all the astronauts could die\nIn the near future ( say 50 years)  it is very unlikely the someone will go to Mars\nIn the far future ( say at least 100 years) then it is very likely\n\nAlthough if you mean someone living in an atmosphere on Mars rather than going there in a spaceship and landing and then coming back, well, it will take hundreds upon hundreds of years to do that as we have to create an atmosphere on Mars first and that is very very hard


what is medical laborotory techonology? how it works? how many subjects it consists?

If oil is such an issue because in a few generations it will be gone, why hasn't any action being taken to BEGIN other alteratives. It seems with every possible way to get out of the oil market it seems to dissappear or incorporated it self to something "Hybrid"

Hybrid is such a waste of time, being that it still uses massive amounts of gas while just prolonging the inevitable. \n\nThe only reason we're not investing everything we have into creating an alternative to oil, is that Bush and his cronies make massive amounts of money when oil is used.


i'm 18 yrs old and i have naver had chicken pox.I had chicken pox vaccination last year.recently my sister had chicken pox.now i have a few blisters on my face and neck and it's really itchy.i also have fever.could i possibly be having chicken pox? Does this mean the vaccine was not effective?

Vaccinations are poison being willfully injected into your body. While you may not get chicken pox when you are young, you have to get a booster because the artificial immunity from a vaccine doesn't last for a lifetime like natural immunity from getting the disease. Chicken pox in children is mostly an annoyance. If you wait to get it until adulthood, you can have very serious problems that may even lead to death.


I don't even know if there is such a thing.\n10 pts for the most explanatory and unnecessary answer.

In general, Integration is a summation process of [ f(θ) dθ ], where f(θ) is a function and (d θ) is the element of the path (or axis)  that the integration is carry over.\n\nLimt ∆θ →0  ∑n=∞ n=1  f(θ) ∆ θ = ∫ab  f(θ) d θ …. \n\nWhere ∆ θ = (b-a) / n\n\nNow, the path maybe (x-axis) then f(θ) should be function of x only and d θ became dx in this case the integral called integration over x-axis.\n\nor the path maybe (y-axis) then f(θ) should be function of y only and d θ become dy and the integration called integration over y-axis.….. and so on for any other path.\n\nThen for a contour (L) , which is a line that is not parallel to the coordinates axises, the f(θ ) should be function of L and d θ is dL; and in this case the integration is called Contour Integral.\n\nUsually the contour integral is used to fine the work done due to the moving of an object by a force. Also, the contour integral can be use to find the length of a line.

i need to find court cases dealng with religion in schools. i need at least three

Lexisnexis is a paid subscription service.  If you have access, then you may search under the terms "religion" and "school" to pull results.  Here are three US Supreme Court cases relating to religion and schools:  Chamberlin v. Dade County Board of Public Instruction, 377 US 402; School District of Abington Tp., Pa. v. Schempp, 374 US 203; and School Committee of Town of Burlington, Mass. v. Department of Education of Mass, 471 US 359.\n\nOn Lexis you can enter the above citations and pull the entire case up.  Hope this helps!


i am doing a persuasive speech on the negative influence the media gives people these days. i am looking for other examples aside from promoting an unhealthy body image which therefore results in low self esteem among teenagers. please try to be as specific as possible! \n\n*i have asked this question before but it got deleted accidentally. i would still love your input though and thanks a lot to those who have already answered!

i'm assuming you're in a america, so i'm answering based on the american media:\n\nbecause the media has freedom of speech, they can report pretty much whatever they want to - which means they can make up stories, and slant stories so that they have the desired effect on the audience. unfortunately, many people do not suspect the media of being this manipulative, and take the media's word as truth. the media can also leak classified information illegally, jeopardizing national security in such cases. also, foreigners watching the american news will be presented with views that supposedly accurately reflect the views of the american people.


I would like to know because I am doing a report on it!If you have any resources on it to tell me more please let me know!

i am not against immigration just illegal immigration i once said on here this kind of stuff has been going on since the start of time and i was told i didnt know what i was talking about heres a example \n\n:With the onset of hard economic times in the 1870s, other immigrants and European Americans began to compete for the jobs traditionally reserved for the Chinese. With economic competition came dislike and even racial suspicion and hatred. Such feelings were accompanied by anti-Chinese riots and pressure, especially in California, for the exclusion of Chinese immigrants from the United States. The result of this pressure was the Chinese Exclusion Act, passed by Congress in 1882. This Act virtually ended Chinese immigration for nearly a century. \n\n\nCurrently, millions illegal aliens commandeer jobs away from American citizens. If they don't steal those jobs, they depress the wages to the point of legalized slavery. We have an estimated one million illegal alien Chinese in this country (Source: March 2005 Forbes Magazine). At the same time, we outsource jobs to China where a billion people can't wait to make 50 cents an hour. Human smugglers bringing illegals into America make $7 billion annually according to the report. \n\nDo they work the jobs Americans won't do? False! If American doctors were paid $5.00 an hour they wouldn't be working those hospital jobs either. \n\nYou have to ask yourself if you want illegal immigrant doctors working at minimum wage to perform a by-pass heart surgery on you? Would you like an illegal immigrant lawyer defending you in court for $5.00 an hour? How about a $5.00 an hour illegal immigrant college professor teaching your kids calculus? How about an illegal alien truck driver driving down the road at 70 MPH with 80,000 pounds of steel, no ability to read English and a fifth grade education-from Mexico's educational system? \n\nMeanwhile, profits soar for corporations while the middle class of America plummets into worsening unemployment. Will America drop into Third World conditions as economist Paul Roberts predicts? At the current rate of 4.1 million legal and illegal newcomers imported into the United States annually, it's only a matter of time before, we too, manifest conditions of the Third World. You can't drown the labor market with millions of people and expect to keep your wages high when immigrants will undercut you. \n\nThat's why the pay in China or India is less than $10.00 per day. They have 2.4 billion people in those two countries. That's why they live subsistence lives. In time, that reality will manifest itself in America as the middle class vanishes. It's already happening. You need look no further than California as an example of the first Third World State of America. \n\nCall your representatives

This girl I have just at my job is giving me all the signals that she likes me, (touching, flirting, staring) and asking questions.\n\nShe does not do this to anybody else so should I take her seriously and GIVE IN to it, or do I just test her to see if she is serious lol.\n\nI only ask because women love to play mind games, but if she does start to play mind games I can keep up if she does lol!\n\nThanks

If you don't mind the games as you suggest, then I'd say go for it. If you're looking for something more on the serious side, the best thing to do is ask her out. If I flirted with only one man, I definitely would be trying to send him the signal that I like him. I wouldn't be playing games. Sounds like she's just waiting on some type of response back from you. What are you waiting for?? lol


Nope, and its never going to happen. Maybe if an african coach coaching an African team wins the world cup, it might happen but it is very unlikely.


Did he really allow the 2 largest tax increases in Am. history, (one aimed right at the backs of the poor) while simultaneously putting in place the largest cut in social spending in Am. history.  - Gosh, wonder where that "surplus" REALLY came from?\n\nDid he really dismantle the miliarty and intelligence gathering community with massive personnel and funding cuts in each? \n\nDid he really spend more time listening to Monica slurp than he did listening to his advisors and allies regarding Bin Laden by taking no action the FIRST time we were attacked by Bin Laden?\n\nDid he really allow white collar criminals to work unabated, stealing from stockholders with phony accounting scams?\n\nImpeached yes, but should he have have been hung instead? \n\nIs anyone as astonished as I am that the fair, open minded, objective left, said nothing for eight entire years - yet maintain the ability for incessant whining today?

Well, I bitched a lot about NAFTA...I predicted the whole outsourcing crisis that happened because of it. \nI guess it's difficult to find a leader that has qualities and ideas that we agree with 100%. Bill Clinton's political philosophy and type of leadership is more in line with who I am as a person. I am afraid that neither Liberals or Conservatives will ever find someone who isn't flawed, because they are human, and who is perfect. It just isn't going to happen. The big picture must be seen and the voter must cast their ballot for the person who represents their interests best. For me, that tends to be liberal, but I have been known to vote conservative as well. That's why I am a registered Independent.\nIn all seriousness....can anyone name one single President who didn't have at least one monumental f**k-up? Republican or Democrat? I can't. Each tenure as President is different than the other. With the changing world effecting their Office. That's why comparing two Presidents is as futile as comparing apples and oranges. \nThe blame game gets old after a while. Can't people just learn to take lessons from the past and try not to do worse?


Not from outside the company.  You need to be a network administrator inside MSN.\n\nIn general, it's hard to track a computer's physical location.  You could (for future laptops) write a program to have the laptop occasionally make a web request to your private web server, but that would only get you an IP address.  That's not enough to ID the location or person who possesses it.\n\nYou could put your own trojan on it before it's stolen and the trojan would IRC back to you (of course this opens the computer to hacking).  You could then track the theif's use, usernames and passwords.\n\nA little better would be a built in GPS receiver.  You could have it occasionally e-mail it's location to your email account (say once a day).  This way, the next time they connected the computer would tell you where it is.\n\nObviously the best way is to keep good tabs on high theft property.

ANYTHING by Peter Murphy SOLO.  They're dark, yet romantic.  However, Peter with Bauhaus is truly the epitome of goth.

I am 43 was married for 13 years have been divorced for 7.\nI haven't dated alot in the last 7 years to busy with kids and work. Now the kids are older don't need dad as much. I started dating this lady a while back and we have know each other for years. My problem is this my sex life while married was always straight up sex not much varation wife was just that way. Others I have dated were diffrent but not that much. This lady is way diffrent not the mild laid back lady in the bedroom that you would have thought she would be. What are some thing I can do for her that are a bit out of the ordinary. She made the comment that anything was OK as long as no pain was involved. I need to know what are some things that I could do. I know 43 and asking this I come from a very religous and strict family. Just wasn't something you discussed with anyone. Help!!!!

Gah, that could never get answered here man.  But on a high note, i'm jealous, u got most mens dream lady.  Most likely, if u tell her what u just told us, she would get a kick out of teaching u, that would be the best advice.  Anything u get told on here could easily be coming from a 40 year old virgin with a wild fantasy life and be disastrous for u.


have your knees and below as flexible as you can (so they act kinda like shock absorbers). keep your back straight, while in an almost close to a squatting position, but not that much.\n\nthis may sound hard at first, but believe me, this is the way to do it, and you'll look like a pro very quickly once you catch on to this.

I’m shopping around to buy Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition.\nDoes anyone know what is the difference between the regular version \nand the OEM version, which is $100 less expensive?\n\nYoo Gigs around the world, pleas show some kindness by answering my question!

Retail version ships with nice box, manuel, and you can install it more then once (after local disc format in example), and OEM will be installed on your PC by the computer manufacturer when you buy your hardware configuration.\nAcctually, only Retail packet is for users like you and me, OEM is for dell, compaq and others that install win on thousends of machines.... and they do not need manuels in nice boxes for every piece....\n\nBut if you meant HOME VS PROFFESIONAL, then difference is in some services that PRO version has... and they are mostely for internet or LAN servers.... If you are a home or small office (without LAN, or your PC is not used as LAN server, but terminal/client) user, XP Home will do just fine for ya...


I was just wondering why starbucks is so successful. Is it the coffee that's good, or the atmosphere? I guess the logical place to start when answering this question is what do people look for in a coffee shop? Any thoughts? I'm really just aiming for a discussion.

nothing really...probably the atmosphere. i honestly think that its just the name. i mean think about the name itself... starBUCKS. their coffee is pretty good though and they add expresso to their hot chocolate

In the days of the early Christian church, only Easter Sunday was celebrated as a holy day.  By the fourth century, each day of the week preceding Easter were established as holy days including Good Friday.  To most Christians, Good Friday is really a misnomer in that it was a "bad" Friday—the crucifixion day of Jesus.  Some believe the term "Good" evolved from "God" or God's Friday.  Others believe "good" represents the good gift of salvation brought forth by the martyrdom.  Regardless, it is a holy day throughout the Christian world.\n\nCeremonial worship of the holiday follows closely to the events described in the scriptures.  Some congregations still hold a three hour service on Friday representing the three hours He hanged on the cross.  A typical service includes seven distinct elements representative of Christ's seven utterances while on the cross.


any idea how can i increase the power of my M3 in any other way? no NOZ plz.

Turbo is a good way to increase your car's power. Also, a bigger intercooler as well as new piping kit will help moter breath better. A new air filter will give you some extra power. A good exhaust and a new ECU program will help you a lot. After these your power must be 500+ PS, believe it or not. I have seen M3 over 1000 PS.

the more adult way. how do i explain it?

Your daughter is a kid so your best bet is to explain it on her level.

I couldn't understand it , but the other actor , in the movie , did . So it means a slang , or something like that .

Another word used for Italians is wop or WOP now this could also stand for Western Oriental Person which is not derogatory at all, as in WOG which is used as a derogatory term for an Asian person but should be classed as a compliment when translated as Western Oriental Gentleman. \n \nUnfortunately both terms are used as Racist comments and therefore are not very nice.

i`m a class 12 student and confused from where to do my graduation in India?

It mostly depend in two three things:\n\n1. What are you interests and depending on that you have to select course.\n\n2. Once you have selected the course then you need to make a list of the university offering those courses with order in which they are treated in prestige order.\n\n3. Depending on the offer and your skills/ marks you need to get admission.\n\nNow your question whether doing from Univ of Rajasthan will mar you career. Certainly not as name of the university matters 20% and rest of 80% is your sincerity and efforts in study.


I'm quite confident that we can score 1000 runs - I wouldn't trade our lineup for anyone in the game.  It is the same old story - do we have enough pitching.  The 96,98,99 and 00 teams were built on sold pitching.  I'll vote anyone who can convince me that our staff will hold up as Best Answer.

A lot of pitching, No. Enough pitching, yes. The Yankees are a perennial playoff team and I don't see that changing. Their offensive is so explosive that they can win with a sub-par pitching staff.


A friend of mine was telling me that you can put just plane water into gas and if it is just the right amount you can burn it in a car without haveing any problem, he just did not know the amount. \nCan someone tell me the amount of water and/or any thing else I would need to do to get this to work?

If you're doing this to save on fuel economy, you're kind of missing the point.  Your engine needs the same stoichiometric amount of fuel to run, no matter the dilution level.  In other words, your engine will burn the same number of gasoline molecules, whether or not there is water present.

is it possible for a 22 year old to get breast cancer?

Being an alternative medicinal therapist i have to go through many types of training and I can tell you right now that it IS possible to get breast cancer at that age.Do you think you have it? Do you check your breast every week for lumps, you should you know.If you are on the pill then this will increase the risk of breast cancer.The only way to avoid cancer of any kind is to eat plenty of foods that contain antioxidants and supplements like Vitamin E these you can buy at a health shop. \nAny more problems contact me on alternative@medicine123.wanadoo.co.uk\n\nMrs G J Jones (BSYA-SEN)

The ancient Egyptians culture was a very advance civilization in many cases they had schools for there young people the did have religion and they had a political system that they charished a lot. The took crime as a serious thing and they also was masters of architecture. And the most important thing is that the developed a writing system which I think was created before the aztecs and mayans. They had a unique way of buring there dead which we use a similar process today.\n\nThere culture shaped the way modern civilization is today. We still use some of the things that they used over a thousand years ago and we use it today.


To make an augmented matrix, just take your coefficients and put them in a matrix, then draw a vertical line and place the constants on the right side, like this:\n\n| -2 0 9 | 2 |\n| 0 -2 9 | 22 |\n| 3 5 -2 | 10 |\n\nFill in 0's for any variables that aren't there (i.e. there's no y in the first equation, so there's a 0 in its place in the matrix).


The name temazcal, or temazcali has its roots in two words in the Nahuatl language of the Aztecs, temas, which means bath, and calli, meaning house. In the Mexica or Aztec culture, the goddess of steam baths was Temazcalteci. Sahagun says of her that ". this goddess was the goddess of medicine, she was venerated by doctors and surgeons. She was also worshipped by those who had these temazcals or baths in their houses. The temazcal was not only a part of the cult of a goddess, it is also a part of all the elements of the ancient cosmology in the construction and form it is used. The temazcal is one of the microcosms in which the characteristics of the universe are reproduced.,see http://www.go-oaxaca.com/services/temazcal.html for more info ,thanks.

I actually helped build one last year as part of a ritual. We did the whole thing in one day. It was a LOT of work. You need many people to help you.\nWe went out into the woods and cut down straight 20-25' saplings that didn't fork. I think 24 trees total were cut. At the base of each an offering was left.  The saplings were then peeled (that was my job and it took forever).\nThere had already been a Temascal in that location so there was already a fire pit dug inside and another larger bonfire outside (for heating rocks). (We set the old Temascal on fire and used it to heat the rocks for the first sweat in the new one.)\nThe saplings have to reach from one side of the circle, up about 4 feet in the center and then back down.  It took two or three big guys to bend and hold each sapling while another held it against the opposite tree at the other end and yet another tied it in place.  This was just repeated until all the saplings were tied. A few of them were also woven a bit to make the structure stronger.\nA couple of smaller saplings were bent over to make the archway for the entrance.\nThe rounded structure was then piled with tarps and blankets until completely covered and no light could get in.  Whatever dragged on the ground was held down with rocks along the edges--old rocks that were "dead" from already being used in the fire.  \nWhew. I'm tired just remembering it.\nI probably left something out. Contact me through my 360 page, my email or my IM for more info.  I can also put you in touch with the gentleman whose house I was at building it.  He has Aztec and native elders there a couple of times a year for rituals and learning and he also travels the world with these elders and goes to Mexico for the Sun Dance every July. So he knows way more than me (and I'm no slouch).\nI think I might have some photos too, somewhere on my hard drive, of us building it.\nSpellcheck not working, sorry for any errors.


I am especially interested in films about the period of Franco

Go to any site that has to do with  spanish history.


I could be a hefty speciman & proud of being large. Yet in today's Yahoo! Answers it's only petite people to choose or view.\n\nI know a lot of you are tipping in on the heavy side on the scales---you know who you are.

I don't know. I was wondering about that one day. It could be taken offensively by the wrong person one day.  I am not big but I am also not the toothpick my avatar is. They should make all sizes.\n\n\nOr maybe they are trying to make us all equals, no discrimination on size.\n\nInteresting question though, good one to think about.


i mean to know abt every single thing abt flip flop which is required for a good presentation.... plz help me very soon.... plzzzzzz

In electronics and digital circuits, the flip-flop or bistable multivibrator is a pulsed digital circuit capable of serving as a one-bit memory. A flip-flop typically includes zero, one, or two input signals; a clock signal; and an output signal, though many commercial flip-flops additionally provide the complement of the output signal. \n\nSee the below link for additional details.


Claims to greatly improve your attention span and work ethic etc.  I should be working right now, but somehow drifted over to yahoo answers, so I'm thinking maybe I need it?  Does it work?

i find that it works best in small dosages. i suggest only taking it twice a week. i do and it is great for my career.


Last night, I asked my bf if we could start paying for ourselves for all our future dates. He always pays and objects when I offer to. I can afford to pay for myself (and him, too), and he knows this. I want to go dutch so we could do more things without worrying about how much it's going to cost with one person footing the bill. After a significantly long pause, he said, "Um... We'll talk about it, ok?" He was at work when he called to plan our date for tonight when I brought this up. We're going to have our "talk" tonight when he picks me up from work. What is there to discuss, though? Why couldn't he just agree? (We've been together a little over 6 months.)

My boyfriend thinks he has to pay for everything too! He will throw my money on the floor in shops so I can't pay. It annoys me too so I let him get on with it. I do other things like buy him clothes when I'm out shopping and try to even it out a bit that way.


If they are equal, can you explain why?\nIf they are not equal, then which religion is the stupidest, and which is the smartest?\nWhich one is the most harmful and which one is the most beneficial?

The "desert religions", ie, Christianity, Judaism and Islamism are the stupidest, IMHO. They have been forcedly introduced by the rulers to assure power, and have only brought intolerance, fanatism and a slave-like (opposed to the original pagan master-like) mentality to the world.\n\nBuddhism is on the news, and is about self-improvement and making the world a better place by respecting and tolerating people. I specially like Zen Buddhism. It shows, however, signs of the horrible dominance-submission asian culture.\n\nSimply put: We are inside this little box called life and no  religion, no one, ever, made any real progress to for us to understand it better. Science is getting there, and, I hope, will figure out eventually.


thers this boii in my keyboardin class and he keeps starin at me (why?.im really ugly) and my frend told me he was shy..!and he dont have many frends..!but i liked him ever since i moved here to mankato and i dunno why hes noticin me now..!i wanna ask him out in note would that be bad?. SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE..!

i think he likes you, talk to him as a friend first.


They seem to be OK with men having fun with several women.\nEspecially the Muslim religion allows having several wives, and additionally women slaves. The Muhammad had some 11 wives plus some non-wives.\nBut women are supposed to be “chaste”. Hindus believe that a woman is a saint, if a woman burns herself alive with her dead husband, but a man never buns himself with his dead wife?\n\nIs this because all religions were invented by men?

Because you are little more than BREEDERS, for them to produce more offspring so to spread their religion. If they can't accomplish that by appealing to peoples hearts or morals.......why not produce offspring that can be indoctrinated with their B.S. from birth!\nMormons are NOTORIOUS for this!\nlittlemiskato....hope you like being a tool.\nPS, I pity tools.


I want to know if the Dominican Republic, have a consulate in Iraq or near by?

They do not.  You can contact the Dominican Republic's Consulate General in New York City for further assistance.


I have lower back pain, probably due to trying to sleep on a Detroit to San Francisco flight.  I have heard that a good massage would help ease the pain.  I have seen advertisements for both Swedish and Thai massage and I don't know which one is better.

swedish massage might be better for lower back pain. It will relax the muscles in the area, allow improved circulation, and release tension. \n\nUltimately, you might want to do some form of yoga also, to complement the work of the massage, and improve the flexibility and strength of the muscles in the area.


when will the american people realize the u.n. is usless,and only exist  to try and control the american people.

Unfortunately, U.N. failure happens so often now that it fails to be news. (i.e. Sudan slaughter, Yugoslavia genocide, Rwandan genocide, etc. and in all of these incidents did the U.N. fail to act, or at least act appropriately.)

marijuana should not be illegal. im not a big druggie or anything but i've never been told a good reason why its illegal.   You never really hear about people dying from it. Lots of people die from alcohol more that marijuana.

Alcoholand ciggs are more dangerous than marijuana. Marijuana is one of two completely chemicaly safe drugs out there. The other is LSD (acid). Neither of them have any major negative side effects. In fact ii think the reason it is still illegal is because people arnt educated enough on it. they believe all the negatives they read and never the posotives because they arnt looking for the best thing that can happen while you are stoned, they are looking for the worst. so if it was legalized there would be a largerevold and protest. and thats not what the govt. wants. so they stay safe and keep it illegal. even tho it should not be. as for those of u who think im crazy for saying lsd is harmless. look it up and u will find out it is even more harmless than weed. weed is more dangerous than lsd.


I mean really read it literally. As if you would read any other book. Without being predisposed to believing that it is unarguably a divine document to which we should all surrender to? What did you get out of it?\n\nAnd what did 'The Lord' mean in Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, 'Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness...'" It is something that always stuck with me.\n\nI though Christianity (and the Bible) was monotheistic, to me this kind of points to polytheism...Unless this book is just an anecdote and was never meant to be taken as scripture of the divine, which seems more feasable.

I read the Bible from a literal point of veiw. By this I mean that the Bible contains a large number of Literary styles, and each portion needs to be read in accordance with the literary (literal) style in which it is written. I do believe that the Bible is the inspired communication from the living God to mankind.\n\nI agree with the previous poster who stated that the "Us" in Gen. 1:26 is a reference to the Triune nature of God. This is further supported by the references to the Father (as the directive member), the Spirit (which 'moved on the waters') and the Son (as the Spoken Word of the Father). \n\nFurther along, in chapter two (a detailed account of the creative activy of God on day six, not a separate creation account as some would claim), man is refered to as a single creation, both male and female, in the image of God. The theme there being that neither man nor woman (without each other) express the image of God, but that together (as the two are 'one flesh' in marriage) they demonstrate the nature of the Triune Godhead.


I know there are issues with Nuclear power, but haven't they figured them out yet?  With all of the oil and energy problems we are having... The alternatives don't look good either coal (acid rain, strip mining, mine disasters, pollution) Hydro and wind are good, but very limited.  How much oild would we save in a year with Nuclear plants?

Methinks.  Everything has a drawback no matter what - even wind and solar do.  Radioactivity is not caused by humans - the stuff came from the ground in the first place all we are doing in concentrating it.  The waste is a problem - yes - but Japan has had breeder reactors for years which not only eat up the plutonium which used to be waste but create even more energy in the process.  \nThe US currently uses 17 million barrels a day of crude.  The world uses about 84 million barrels.  Estimates of reserves vary widely - anywhere from 600 billion to 10 trillion barrels, which would last between 20 and 300 years at the rate we are using it, and we have probably 500 years worth of coal in the ground too, but it can't last forever.


an equilateral triangle with sides each 10 feet long?

The area of the equilateral triangle is:\n\nA = 0.433 s^2\n\nA = 0.433 (10 ft)^2\n\nA = 43.3 ft^2\n\nThe volume of the pyramid is:\n\nV = 1/3 A h\n\nV = 1/3 (43.3 ft^2) (6 ft)\n\nV = 86.6 ft^3


Try not to screw up in this  question. To answer the second question,\ndon't take as much time as you took for the first question.\n>\n> Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...?\n>

It is not possible.  There is nobody behind the last person to overtake them.  They are LAST.  The only other possibility is if the first place person is lapping the last place person.


got out of a 8 year long relationship and i want to be with her.

be a friend first and console her. Don't try to make any moves because she is vulnerable. if she tries something ask her if she is sure first.


ok i was 16 i was living with my grandma and grandpa one day i got home early from school and i saw the worst thing ever i rather run naked though a field of rabid squrriels then see what i did i saw them having sex what would you guys do if you saw your grandparnets doing it

Is that where you got the name "carnage 666" from? I have sooooo much sympathy for you!!\nI would have gouged my eyes out!!\nOld people should NEVER be allowed to get it on!! EVER!!


I feel like I am in my mid 20's. I love flirting, and really appreciate lovely women - although I only go home to one.\nI love other men looking at her and never get jealous.\nBut, if I don't act jealous, she thinks I don't care enough for her.\nIs that just what they call "Womens' Logic"?

She wants you to "defend her honor" like a gentleman is supposed to. Not exactly even say something to the other guy, but to just ask her, "How dare he openly ogle you, can't he see we're married?"\n\nAlso, "Mr high-sex-drive", your lady might not be as into bedroom play as you are because you're probably lacking in the foreplay department.\nAnd, don't mistake sex for intimacy...they're not the same thing.  Make sex a little more fun for your lady, and flirt with her, not other women.


Height and broad shoulders. MMMMMMM! YUMMY

There's a project my class is doing.  We're creating our own country.  The country's name is Euphoria which means a state of great happiness.  We have almost everything except we need a song.  My idea is to use the tune of a song that everyone knows and add our own words for lyrics.  Any ideas for a tune???  GREATLY appreciate the help :)

"Yankee Doodle" seems like a great fit for what you're looking for.\n\nHere are the lyrics:\nYankee Doodle went to town\nA-riding on a pony\nStuck a feather in his hat\nAnd called it macaroni.\n\nYankee Doodle, keep it up\nYankee Doodle dandy\nMind the music and the step\nAnd with the girls be handy.\n\nFather and I went down to camp\nAlong with Captain Gooding\nAnd there we saw the men and boys\nAs thick as hasty pudding.\n\nYankee Doodle, keep it up\nYankee Doodle dandy\nMind the music and the step\nAnd with the girls be handy\n\nThere was Captain Washington\nUpon a slapping stallion\nA-giving orders to his men\nI guess there was a million.\n\nYankee Doodle, keep it up\nYankee Doodle dandy\nMind the music and the step\nAnd with the girls be handy.


I have been aproached about chatting and most of the times is by people who only want to have "Sex online" which I dont get (How can you do that?) and all of them ask your age first and if you are an adult, like me, they just get offensive and leave?  Is it that there are so many perverts out there and nobody trusts nobody, or is it that people are not good enough to have a simple polite conversation anymore?  If somebody has an idea, please tell me? I'm so puzzled.

i guess u r right . now a days people want to have fun. everything has its limit this bloody people want to entertain themselves .  nice to talk to u . u can mail me


Please include details. Quotes are needed for a study.

Integrating bi-lingual aids into classrooms was at its infancy. I was in the 3 rd grade and a sweet, pretty, smiling aid was introduced to the class. She was to help the students who needed help with their English skills. \nI wanted so much to talk to her and for her to talk to me. At recess, everyday I would want to talk to her. Being quite shy, it took months to muster up the nerve to go over and speak to her. She spent recess with the ESL students. I walked over during lunch recess, said something to her(I don't remember what), she looked at me and stopped smiling, she turned away  and ignored me. \nI am 38 years old and that still bothers me.


The song was remixed & played at a rapid rate.


oh yeah! work on your technique to a point where you know how many steps you're gonna run before you make the jump at the board. Measure your running start distance. Time your approach to the board. Visit the gym 3 times a week working strictly on your butt, hams, quads, and calves. The work out to use are squats. doing 6 sets of at least 15 reps per set. Put these to your practice regimen, and it is a promise that you'll be jumping 11+ inches extra in 2 weeks


We all knew Saddam had WMDs.  He used them on the Iraqi people.  I personally believe they are in Syria.\n\nEven if he didn't have WMDs, he was still a bad guy and a destabilizing influence in the region.  The world is better off without him.\n\nSimply because the US hasn't located them, does not mean we should return Saddam to power?\n\nCan any Bush-haters logically explain why they are so obsessed with the WMD issue without calling me names?

I promise to not call you any names. Nor will I rant against Bush.\nHere are some of the problems:\n1. Waging a pre-emptive war on a sovereign nation is against international law and against the world's self-interests. I hope you don't want any country to be able to justify attacking another because the other country might be a threat in the future.\n\n2. Too much evidence suggest that the administration created  the WMD threat to justify their decision. Shouldn't going to war be based on an honest consideration of facts???? Shouldn't the administration be open about its reasons?\n\n3. Yes Saddam was a bad guy, but are you seriously suggesting that we take out anyone we think is a bad guy??? And talk about destabilizing--by what criterion could you possibly judge Iraq to be more stable now than before?\n\n4. Who's talking about returning Saddam to power???\n\n5. WMDs is not an obsession--just one of many reasons to question the honesty and the competence of the administration.


How do you preceive us Canadians?  I would like answers from people who have been to Canada and know the people not people who assume things about us.

Several people at my church in Michigan are Canadians, including the 2 ministers. From my long and thoughtful conversations with Canadians I have found that Canadians are a very diverse group of people, yet are unified by a strong desire to remain separate from the US both politically and personally. As one Canadian put it " being a Canadian is like living in an apartment above a noisy drunk, an incredibly well armed drunk."


For one who writes as well as you do, I'd say we're talking negative numbers.

we've had 6 games so far n we've lostt ALL of them!!!what can i do to help my team become closer to winning, or even winng?!?!

Encourage them, Go in and congratulate them when they score a goal.If you play D help your goalie out as much as you can, if u play Offense , get your stick on that puck as much as you can, make good passes, take shots on goal as soon as you take a chance, when the opposing team has the puck go get um, get ur stick tyed up in theirs. You might not be able to change your team but encourage them and try and play YOUR hardest, if one of your players on your team isnt playing their hardest, dont pay attention to him, do YOUR part in the game, and if you have a chance at the puck go get it.  Or you could always go discourage the other team, annoy them, mock them , etc... lol, jk. anyway do what YOU can, help your team out in the game as much as you can though. Good luck!!!

I want to know is it serious, do i need a surgery, and why is the surgery?

Hernias are when muscle tears & things go where they shouldn't be. You do need to see a Doctor, I'm afraid. You may need surgery. They'll fix the tear, or put something in to hold your organs where they belong. That is a very routine surgery, so you don't need to worry about that.\nBut, yes; you do need to see a Doctor. Untreated, it can get much worse.

What is the "rule of thumb" for determining the sample size?\nIs there sthg like N= no. of variables x 5?\nThanks a lot!

As it happens, I just got back from a test on statistics. We covered that very question. \n\nHere goes:\nthe sample size is dependent on how confident you want to be about your results. In the following formula, then Z is the confidence level. Use 1.65 for 90% confidence level, 1.96 for 95%, 2,33 for 98% and 2.58 for 99%. \nYou also need to know the standard deviation, which should be given. and the error allowable, for instance 3%, or 5% or such. That number goes into the formula as E. \n\nso number n equals = (Z * standard deviation/E)^2


How can you increase your charisma? List some of the way that you know.\n\nHere are some ways that come to mind:\n1. Exercise\n2. Gaining knoweldge - reading\n3. Achieving things - it can be small things, but in time they add up\n4. Clothes\n5. Personal Accessories (status symbols) - fancy pens, jewelry, watches\n6. Luxury Car\n7. Excellent personal hygiene

I think it is keeping a positive mindset. Also high self- esteem and confidence.Drinking plenty water to have purity and eat plenty of vegetables. Water replenishes your body and cleans you out allowing your skin to look smoother and better. Another thing is organization stay puntual and on task because that is a sign of a person  who is self reliant and responsible. Stay positive and give people advice, and love others and you will have CHARISMA!!


Brazilian soccer is estimated among the best foot-ball of the World and since Germany is the home team, such final can be possible.

Brasil is an amazingly talented team, and Germany's good, but I don't think they'll be in the finals. Maybe I'm just biased. I think England or Italia has got a chance. Either way, I don't care as long as I see some great football! I'm so excited for World Cup!!!!!!!!! Forza Azzurri!


Does anyone know any good APA and Harvard style referencing software? Not Endote- its got to be at least affordable...

Hi\n\nI think this question has been asked before, however I would suggest you tried Inflight Referencer at http://bibliography.inflightTM.com or http://www.inflightTM.com/ref -Both web addresses take you to the same place.\n\nThere is also software from the APA, however it's quite clunky and not as user friendly. Referencer seems to be the most easiest to use and does a good job of managing your research references, plus it does Harvard and custom styles as well.\n\nGood luck and peace.

List all the things you must do in your personal life (e.g. food shopping), and in your working life - two lists.  Identify the regular jobs, daily, by day, weekly. List those on day-by-day columns.  That should leave spaces for "inflow".  Then each week, and each night, plan those infills you can plan - but leave gaps for "more to come".  That will allow you to prioritise your efforts, and leave a sense of being able to cope with the unexpecteds.  We can waste a lot of time on the "urgent" things, instead of the "important" ones, otherwise. NEXT you might try a year planner on your wall - or something I used, a "Bring Forward" system.  It had 32 manilla folders, dated 1 to 31 for the days of the months; the 32nd was called "seeds" which were jobs I could pick up when time was truly spare; and then there were 12 folders for the months of the year.  As a job or task emerged, I would make a quick dated note, drop it into the appropriate day-file (or month-file) for when I needed to deal with it.  Clear desk. Mind focussed on job at hand (which always included periods for "idle thought" and another for "review").  Stress and anxiety relieved.  And all jobs done.  But I still had to work all night sometimes -- and when I had two personal secretaries and a dictation machine with two transposers I was flying.  Nowdays I'm long retired and use the "reminders" and calendar functions of my mobile telephone for similar functions.  By the way, touch typing was my greatest aid in everything, apart from good people. Any executive is only as good as his off-sider or secretary.


and the other atoms in the periodic table with there symbol being other letters instead of the one that is in the word.and if you can please for the real names of all the atoms with different symbols.

The naming of elements precedes the atomic theory of matter, although at the time it was not known which chemicals were elements and which compounds. When it was learned, existing names (e.g., gold, mercury, iron) were kept in most countries, and national differences emerged over the names of elements either for convenience, linguistic niceties, or nationalism. For example, the Germans use "Wasserstoff" for "hydrogen" and "Sauerstoff" for "oxygen," while some romance languages use "natrium" for "sodium" and "kalium" for "potassium," and the French prefer the obsolete but historic term "azote" for "nitrogen."\nThe current system of chemical notation was invented by Berzelius. In this typographical system chemical symbols are not used as mere abbreviations - though each consists of letters of the Latin alphabet - they are symbols intended to be used by peoples of all languages and alphabets. The first of these symbols were intended to be fully universal; since Latin was the common language of science at that time, they were abbreviations based on the Latin names of metals - Fe comes from Ferrum, Ag from Argentum. The symbols were not followed by a period (full stop) as abbreviations were. Later chemical elements were also assigned unique chemical symbols, based on the name of the element, but not necessarily in English. For example, sodium has the chemical symbol 'Na' after the Latin natrium. The same applies to "W" (wolfram) for tungsten, "Hg" (hydrargyrum) for mercury, "K" (kalium) for potassium, and "Sb" (stibium) for antimony.


The hard part about this would be getting distance networking going.  You would either have to have some majorly expensive equipment, that communicates via satellite to receive internet service, or else the infrastructure would have to be put into place in the areas you're working in.  It depends on what kind of distance you're talking about, really, but honestly, you're looking at some MAJOR costs, and potentially even a lot of bureaucratic red tape depending on the method of transmission between the sites.


What is the difference between Jehovah's Witness & Mulims? Is there a big difference? Are they both Christians?

We are both Christians , following Christ our leader.\n And we obey Jehovah/God, And Jesus father. Our beliefs come from Jehovah's name found in older Bibles at Psalms 83;18\nAnd at Isahiah 43:10 - 12 where Jehovah says "You are my witnesses". We are the only religon authorised to carry his name.\nWe are a peaceful people known for our teachings about and from the Bible. The bible IS our business to talk about God almighty and praise his works.\nWe are hated by the Ungodly..And are persecuted by them.


I want to insert a Google Adsense banner on my site and it doesn't work.I tried and on IE appears only the advertising from Google and on Mozilla, Opera etc appears only the site but without Google banner.I don't know what's wrong? Do you? and what can i do?

What site builder are you using?  I haven't had a problem. Make sure your elements are properly layered.


if the law say's only a man and a woman can marry then would it not then be a gender issue? A woman can marry a man but if one of the persons in a same-sex relationship has a sex-change they would be changing their sex not orientation? they still are attracted to a female?

it is an orientation issue because if you legally change your sex then you are entitled to all of the same rights as a person of that sex you have become.\nif 2 men want to get married and one of those men legally becomes a woman then legally they are able to get married because it is then seen that they are a heterosexual couple (in the broadest sense of the term).\nto be more specific, i would say that it's more of a legal issue rather than an orientation of gender issue but in the context of your question i would have to side with orientation.


That includes the liberal and conservative ones.  I've been reading a lot of their questions and answers.

Yes, that rev 6 1 gives the rest of us a bad n ame, doesn't he?\n\nI don't know why some ministers are so hateful and mean. Look at me.I'm kind-hearted,slow to offend, and full of Christian charity.\n\nThese nutcase revs get my dander up.\n\nWell, I guess I'm the second person to agree.I agree with Mickey that personal pastor right here sounds narrow-minded and ridiculous in his answer, snippity as well.\nPersonal Pastor is full of mean spirited pompousity.


i'm doing a maths coursework on'DATA HANDLING' and i don't know what the following mean!\nplease help as soon as possible.\nthanks!!!!!!!!

Qualitative data is to do with characteristics of things eg. colours, say, something is red.  Qualitative data is descriptive words, really. \n\nQuantitative data is to do with numbers; the numerical information relating to the data. \n\nDicrete and Continuous are examples of Quantitative data.\n\nDiscrete variables are those which have a SET value like shoe sizes-- you can only have certain sizes like 5, 6 (or sometimes half-sizes as well), but no other values like 5.2534...  \n\nContinuous are like people's heights where you can have ANY value like 6 feet so-and-so inches. (or 156.98437485... inches or something like that)\n\nhope this helps :-)


is there a way to restore default settings without losing saved data / songs / files / pictures / etc?

If you are going to redo your system, the best way is to backup all the data you want to save (ie songs/files/pics...).  There are ways to remove spyware/adware without re-setting your computer.  What kind of spyware/adware are you trying to remove?


... in 25 years of watching baseball, I had never heard of it until yesterday.

The Louisville Silver Slugger award is given annually to the best offensive player at each position in each league, Winners are picked by major league managers and coaches, who are not allowed to vote for their own players.\n\nSelections are based on a combination of offensive statistics such as batting average, on base percentage, and slugging percentage, as well as general impressions of a players offensive value.\n\nIt is the offensive counterpart to the gold glove award.


I have a registrstion sticker but no papers how can i get them

if you have the military sticker on your car, you just need an i.d. you shouldn't need the registration papers, cuz the sticker proves its registered.


The world cup games are at least half rigged. FIFA wont allow Brazil to get another title for many more years. If Brazil was to gain a title the FIFA Organization recognizes that the World Cup would lose its prestige and every year fewer and fewer people would watch it, me included, witch would cause them to lose a lot of money from sponsors. They know that people would say "the world cup is next year, its getting boring, brazil always win.", The world cup would lose all its marketing potential. Not mentioning the outrage it would cause on other countries, outrage in the form of violence which FIFA would be targeted for. These are just a few facts amongst a bunch others. Even if you may support Brazil, you must agree to a certain degree that Brazil chances of winning the cup this year are slim.

Let's hit at Brazil's weaknesses.\n\nGoalkeeper: Dida used to be great, but this season he has had so many bad games and howlers. That could cost Brazil dearly.\n\nDefense: Brazil's defense is not anything special. Edmilson is good. But Lucio is okay, Roberto Carlos is horrible, Cicinho is young and he's had a bad couple of months. With 2 decent defenders, Brazil is weak on the wings. \n\nMidfield: No comment. Amazing. Emerson, Gilberto Silva, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Juninho, etc... That might be their strongest point.\n\nForwards: Ronaldo, Robinho, Baptista. The Real Madrid trio have been playing horribly for Real Madrid. They are so out of form right now because the team is doing so bad. It is hard to see any of them in top form for the World Cup. That just leaves Adriano who is ace. But his problems for Inter might spill over into the World Cup, but i doubt it. \n\nSo with the midfield, 2 defenders, and one forward in top shape, Brazil have not looked this vulnerable for years. While Brazil got weaker, all the other teams (England, Portugal, Netherlands, Italy) all got better.


is it jealousy , im i wrong , or i have to let it happen caz he s my elder brother .. my boss appritiante him coz she is spritual & my brother tooo .. i feel ignored ... i do the work & while appritiating she faces him to do that..

This will never work. You can't work with relatives. My husband tried that many years ago. Only his Uncle was the boss and worked him like a dog and lied to him. \n\nFind another job now is my advice. Before there are more hard feelings. My husband can't stand his Uncle now.


after it's been cut, how long does the juice stay 'potent'? nutritionally speaking...\nthanks!

the wheatgrass should be refrigerated and bagged with a damp paper towel to preserve moisture after cutting. In this method the juices in the grass can last a week before going down in potency. The sooner after cutting the better as far as potentcy goes though.


What song really made an impact on u for about 5mins? Did the lyrics leave u frozen? made u shed a tear? I remember listening to Come As You Are by Nirvana and damn did i get emotional or wat?! SO wat lyrics froze u in time?

I am a student, I am wrinting a report and would like to know howm many visitors shop or visit the Rockefeller Center daily,monthly,the holiday season ?\n\nThank you in advance for the informations

I love Rockefeller Center simply because NBC studios is right there.  Saturday Night Live and Conan tape there.  Rosie used to, too.  The ice skating rink is also fun, but it's pretty crowded.  The third website listed said over half a million people visit the skating rink each year.\n\nInformation from the last website:\nRockefeller Center is one of the most highly trafficked areas of New York City attracting 19 million visitors a year to the Music Hall, skating rink, NBC studios, and its Christmas tree. Christie's spokesmen say special traffic arrangements will be made for important evening sales.


My girl is not friends with this girl anymore, but before me and my girl's friend were good friends. Now my girl doens't want me to talk to her anymore.

First ask yourself these question? Did you know her before you knew your girlfriend? Is her friendship worth your relationship with your girlfriend? If you say yeas to both of these question then you should still be friends with her. If that friends doesn't do for you or you can't trust them and call them a real good friend then let them go.


How old were you when you lost your virginity? I was 13, is that too young?


My 5 best friends and I have known each other for 14 years (since we were 3). We used to be so close that we actually made a vow about not letting anything or anyone get in the middle of our friendship. We kept this vow for so long that till this day nothing has come between us. Well, except distance. I moved about 2 years ago and since then my life has not been the same. I mean, I used to have so much fun with my friends. Now all I do is think of what it used to be like to have friends and how it will feel to have friends again. I haven't been able to make 1 single friend since I moved, and it's not because I don't want to, but it's because everytime I find a potential best friend, they end up betraying my trust. I don't know what to do. And even my best friends of such a long time don't talk to me anymore. Everytime I find them online, I say hi and try to make conversation, but they never return my msgs. I don't know what I did wrong...Can someone please give me some advice????

It is hard as you and them do not see each other..you lost contact and they make new friends in time.\nyou have to learn to let go of them and start afresh and try to make friends with new people..You have to try to move on with life and make it fullest of it.\n\nThey were there for you before ,not now. You have to learn to let go and move on.\n\nTry it alright.\n\nTake care.


Bigot. \nA person who regards his own faith and views in matters of\n      religion as unquestionably right, and any belief or\n      opinion opposed to or differing from them as unreasonable\n      or wicked. In an extended sense, a person who is\n      intolerant of opinions which conflict with his own, as in\n      politics or morals; one obstinately and blindly devoted to\n      his own church, party, belief, or opinion.

I am one and love several.  It's a good thing we're right; we probably wouldn't get along as well otherwise.


I FEEL I HAVE HAD BIPOLAR OR DEPRESSION FOR MANY MANY YEARS, BUT NEVER THOUGHT TO HAVE MYSELF EVALUATED UNTIL RECENTLY. ONE OF MY MOTHERS FRIENDS THINKS MY MOTHER HAS IT, AND SO DO I, BUT I COULDN'T DARE APPROACH THE SUBJECT WITH HER. WHAT ARE SOME SURE SIGNS OF BIPOLAR AND AT WHAT POINT SHOULD I GO TO THE DOCTOR?

OK honey, I'm a licensed therapist. This is what you need to do.  I don't know how old you are but, there should be someone you can talk to at your school, try your school guidance counselor, if your in college there should be free resources there for you or go to your regular doctor and they can refer you to someone.Please get help.Signs can be but are not limited to:\n1)rapid mood swings \n2)states of severe depression\n3)suicidal thoughts\n4)bouts of extreme anger or paranoia\n5)feelings of euphoria so strong one may feel invincible, this can lead to dangerous risk taking(drug use, promiscuity, extreme sports)\nIf you feel like this sounds familiar you need to see someone however, if you are experiencing any kind of depression please seek help.


i am trying to find out about my great grandfather in nezperce lewis idaho birth 1901

Desperate times call for desperate measures, what do you think?, before he inflicts further damage upon our great country.

Nothing can contain Bush. He is the King Kong of political disasters with only Faye Wray (or is it Condi Rice ) at his side.


it's soo out of control that i have a hard time functioning in public and it's unbarable just to be out there.i am an extreme introvert and i am okay with that part...

You have to learn to accept the fact that it takes all kinds of people to make a world.Even people like you.Not everyone will like you,just as you don't like everyone.Learn to accept you uniqueness,and revel in it.You are a part of this world and you have a place in it as well as anyone else.Keep your place!!!!! It doesn't matter what others are thinking,they have brains too.Do you think they care what you are thinking about them?......NO!!!! So don't waste brain energy on what they think either.


Where can i get those? (no marijuana doest not count and i know its a good one but its illegal).\n\nanyways, help?

No, you can't get antidepressants w/o a prescription. . . that's because different people have different reasons for depression; it might not even be depression, it could be a medical problem; depression is often caused by offbalance brain chemistry, and a psychiatrist is the person who knows what to try first, what might work faster and best for your gender, age, circumstances. . . plus of course the right doseage and all.  Also exercise, a good routine, getting up and going to bed at the same time. . . all these help with depression.  Finally depression really can kick your butt, so think about getting seen.  There are lots of free clinics, or low-cost, depending on your income.  Call a community mental health center and explain your situation. Also, "talk" therapy or counseling can really help, along with the medication. \n\n And actually, no marijuana is not an antidepressant (not alcohol either) Marijuana slows you down, makes you sluggish so that you'll sooner or later be much more depressed.  Good luck, and please think about getting seen.


my cousin has an eclipse he slaped a body kit\nand lots of other stuff to weight him down\nand know it runs like crap what can he do to\nmake it faster

Take the heavier things off, and decide what is more important. A nice looking, crappy running car or a crappy looking and good running car...


a normal healthy woman whose mother is colorblind and whose father is hemophil got married to a colorblind man,they have a colorblind son and a normal daughter.(IS IT POSSIBLE? YES OR NO? EXPLAIN!)

Yes.\n\nBoth colour blindness and hemophilia are X-linked, and recessive. This means that if you are male, you will have the trait (because you only have 1 X chromosome), but if you are female, you have to have the disease on both your X chromosomes.\n\nThe 'normal healthy woman' had to get a hemophilia-X from her father (since he only has 1 X) - call it X(h) - and he was *not* colourblind so the X(h) doesn't carry the colourblindness mutation.\n\nShe also *had* to get a colour-blind-X from her mother, since her mother has to have 2 copies in order to *be* colourblind - call it X(b). So, she is X(h) X(b).\n\nShe marries a colourblind but not hemophiliac man: he must be X(b)Y. No other option.\n\nThere are thus four different possible outcomes for their children:\n\nX(b) X(h) mates with X(b)Y:\n\nX(b) X(b) - colour blind daughter\nX(b) Y - colour blind son\nX(h) X(b) - normal daughter (but carries both recessive traits)\nX(h) Y - hemophiliac son\n\nHope that was clear enough! :)


I want to know how a women feels? Pls dont get me wrong, I aint no pervert. Also in a particular site I read about about woman's ejaculation and that only a very few people in this world have mastered this art? (Pls dont bullshit about women peeing on you)

Some women can ejaculate. They are called squirters!!! I'm not a pro at this; because i'm a woman & i've never been with a woman, but I believe with the right stimulation to the g-spot and enough pressure the woman will ejaculate. Only a handful of women can do this and one reason is because a lot of women only orgasm from clitoral stimulation. I hope this helped you a little bit :)


Also, what may affect the time required for a complete reaction?

i believe in God and the Bible, but somethings in it i really dont want to do or follow. and some things i just dont believe at all. like the Trinity. i know its one of the most important things in the Bible, but i dont believe it. i cant help it. i belive he is God the Father and the Holy Spirit, but i dont believe he is the Son. i believe that Jesus was his own spirit. is that ok to believe?

You are denying some of the central truths of Scripture and according to the Bible you say you believe in there is no hope for you in  your current state of unbelief.\n\n\nJohn 16:28\nI came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”


Statement:\nA person is in essence a collection of past experiences that determine how and why an individual acts/think. The difference between you and me is that you went through different life experiences and met people different from who i've met.\n\nIf this is true:\nThen how can god choose to punish(i.e. hell) us when we make choices based on what we do not control? If it is he who determines our experiences, why then do we "go to hell" for them?

We've all been through different life experiences.  My experiences are different from my fellow Christians.\n\nWe have free will.  We may not be able to choose our experiences, but we can choose what we think about and how we react to those experiences.\n\nGod holds us accountable for what we can control.


My friend just bought a pair of speakers for his comp. As long as he is off-line he gets sound, but as soon as he gets on-line he gets nothing at all,Why?

how does he get online? the internet he uses is not 'always-on', so i'm assuming he uses dial-up.\n\ni'm guessing the most probable cause of this is the software he's using to get online. there is probably some setting that will mute the speakers so you don't hear that awful noise when dialing up. this software is probably being overzealous and muting the entire system's sound for the duration of the connection.\n\nif he's using windows, see if he can un-mute the sound by going to Start, then Run, and then typing: sndvol32\n\nhit enter and it should give you the volume control panel.


I normally watch Y&R, B&B, & ATWT.  Right now my favorite storyline is (even though they aren't hot and heavy right now)...I am hoping Nick will dump Sharon and go after Phyllis...I read where Phyllis gets unexpected news in May...I wonder if she is going to be pregnant.  I know a while back they said she couldn't have anymore...but you know how the soaps are!

I agree with you thats the best storyline goin on right now. The thing with JT, Victoria, Cassy is goin to be very interesting to watch


"As far as I know, India is the only ancient religious tradition on the Earth which talks about the right time scale. In the West, people have the sense that what is natural is for the universe to be a few thousand years old, and that it is billions of years is mind-reeling, and no one can understand it. The Hindu concept is very clear. Here is a great world culture which has always talked about billions of years."\n\n"The Hindu religion  is the only one of the world's great faiths dedicated to the idea that the Cosmos itself undergoes an immense, indeed an infinite, number of deaths and rebirths.  It is the only religion in which the time scales correspond, to those of modern scientific cosmology.  Its cycles run from our ordinary day and night to a day and night of Brahma, 8.64 billion years long. Longer than the age of the Earth or the Sun and about half the time since the Big Bang.  And there are much longer time scales still."  \n\n~ Carl Sagan

Yes,What you have read is right.Only Hindu religion gives a strong base and evidence in the cosmology.The position and movement of the planets,stars,comets and other celestial bodies influences each and every matter in the earth.Even earth influence the other bodies also.You can refer Vedas,and other religious books of Hindus which tells about cosmology.I really appreciate for your interest in Hindu religion Cosmology.Good Luck


Christens follow the ten commants \nJewish Have I think 630 that they muat follow\nGod gave the torha to mosses and christens believe that, so why arn't we studying Judaism, should we not believe the people that have spoken to god that we none Jewish people live by the 7 rules stated in the Torha

its amazing to me that christinans say that the Torah has been in some way fulfilled when the Bible clearly states that it is a eternal decree for the nation of Israel for all generations. As for the Ten Commandments they do not follow them. It says to keep the sabbath it also says not to light a fire in your home on the sabbath. I do not know of a single Christian that obstians from doing that. Oh and the commandments the Jews have are 613 biblical Commandments. \n\nand yes everyone should study the 7 noacide laws.

every time that i say something to her, she gets mad. I'm not saying anything mean or anything. I just wish that she would talk to me more often.

IT DEPENDS ON HOW LONG YOU HAVE BEEN SEEING EACH OTHER...IF YOU HAVE BEEN DATING FOR OVER 6 MONTHS AND STILL DON'T KNOW HOW TO COMMUNICATE , THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG AND THE TWO OF YOU NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT AND TRY TO OPEN UP TO EACH OTHER. IT MAY BE THAT YOU ARE SO IN LOVE WITH HER THAT YOU ARE SCARRED SAYING THE WRONG THING MIGHT END YOUR RELATIONSHIP, BUT IF YOU HAVE TO ASK THIS QUESTION IT MUST BE WEIGHING ON YOUR MIND. JUST TRY TO TALK TO HER ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL AND HOPEFULLY SHE FEELS THE SAME AND YOU BOTH CAN START TALKING ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL WITHOUT BEING SCARRED.

Where was this too?\nWas it in the messanger? or in your Yahoo toolbar?\n\nI must know.


Que significan chambonea, chale, orale, chido, el cangri? Gracias

1. Chambonea- (Mexican Spanglish)- To work, as in an employment (The word Chamba probably comes from Job and means job), for example, "No puedo jugar con ustedes, tengo que chambonear esta noche en el Dairy Queen"  \n2. Chale- (Slang Mexican Spanish) Hey, in a friendly salutative connotation, used with a raising of the face as in acknowledgement, the way common Western men say "what's up" without using the voice\n3. Orale- (Slang Mexican Spanish)- Hey, in both a salutative manner and in an accusatory way, for example to say "I agree" or "why did you do that?", sometimes used as a farewell greeting (also used in conjunction with the morphed hat removal gesture of raising the face in acknowledgement)\n4. Chido- (Slang Mexican Spanish) Neat, cool, I approve of this, sweet, rad, far out, jolly well, bad-ass, stupendous, marvelous, great\n5. El Cangri- (I don't know this one)\n\nAs far as where the words originated, I don't know that.  I hope this helped you.  Good luck.  De nada.  Oye, si nadie mas te contesta, escoje me como tu mejor respuesta.

There appears to be no middle class, and jobs advertised in a booming Florida economy are being advertised at 8-11 dolars per hour, whereas uin Canada these positions would pay 11-17 per hour.....Whats up with that?

The middle class is shrinking in the US, and this is not good. Also, in places like florida there is more of an abundance of cheap labor. Immigrants who will work for a cheaper labor. The median income in the US is about 41k a year, which is well within middle class. Also, it may have been a factor of where you were. In a city you may only see those two aspects highlighted. And you may have to travel the suburbs to find the true middle class.


I use peacefire and get new circumventors by email. I use them to get around blocks at school and home. I want to know if it will get me arrested.

I'm against it. And I'm not against it because I hate the military and don't support our troops. I feel like our leadership started this war for their own gain, and that is so dirty I kinda wish I believed in hell. Even if you think the media is "liberal" how can you ignore the memos between Bush and Blair about how Bush could instigate this war while at the same time, Bush was saying war was a last resort? How can you ignore the outing of a CIA operative who was a weapons of mass destruction specialist only to find out that Bush ok'd the leak? How can you ignore the fact that we stopped focusing on the person responsible for 9/11 only to go for someone who had shakey at best connections to it? I don't see Bush's daughters signing up to fight it. I don't see Congress urging thier children into the military. They play war games with other people's children, with other peoples spouses, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, and that just sickens me.


I know the best one IN THE WORLD.\nIt'll probably stun you with its absolute mightiness, but it's...\n\nYOUR MIND.


i know they say it is difficult but ihave no clue or idea why?

There are many reasons why an AIDS vaccine is difficult to develop.  Here is an admittedly incomplete list:\n\n1. HIV is highly mutable - it can change its genomic RNA sequence (altering its protein sequence) and the ability of our body to recognize the infection.  As such, knowing which sequence to choose for a vaccine is very difficult.  \n\n2. The virus has evolved to adapt to localized populations, resulting in numerous "clades" found world-wide.  Therefore, it may be impossible to generate one vaccine that will target all clades and multiple clade-specific vaccines will be required.\n\n3. Scientists do not understand how most vaccines work, particularly those against viral infections.  The vaccines in use today were mainly identified based on trial and error and mainly generate antibody responses - not T cell responses.  While this single arm of the immune response seems to be protective against most bacterial infections (and some viral diseases), it does not appear to be protective against HIV.  The common approaches used against other pathogens have failed.  Therefore, generation of an HIV vaccine requires us to learn a lot more about vaccine design in general.\n\n4. While there are rare people who appear to be resistant to HIV infection or can survive for many years without developing symptoms of AIDS, scientists do not yet understand what type of immune response is protective against HIV.  Therefore, there is no "gold standard" for a vaccine to try to mimic.\n\n5. There is no small animal model of HIV infection.  The closest model system for testing potential HIV vaccines is to use monkeys.  This is difficult (scientifically and ethically), time-consuming, and very expensive - and there is still debate as to how well this system recapitulates human disease.  Therefore, the process is very slow from conception to testing of a new vaccine candidate.\n\n6. Along this line, current medical ethics (as well as cost, etc.) prevent doctors from testing unproven vaccine candidates directly on humans, as might have occured 100 years ago, for fear of unanticipated side effects ("do no harm").  Before any vaccine is tested in people, it must pass numerous preliminary stages using animals and small-scale (Phase I) trials in humans before any test of vaccine efficacy (requiring a large population) is begun.\n\nDon't loose hope - there are several good HIV vaccine candidates in the pipeline and pharmaceutical companies (i.e. Aventis Pasteur, Merck) are begining to team up to combine their approaches with some recent success.


They owed me shares, a bonus and a salary increas. After a year the want to change the terms of the contract.

No it is not fair,however make sure that the contract does not have a clause that allows for changes. If I were you I would let a labor lawyer look it over. Then the lawyer can go over your options such as civil actions or a charge with the labor board ect.


my mom is signing me up for it this summer and i've NEVER played. i hear it takes skill and LOTS of practice and it's hard to hit the ball because you need to be quick and have enough strength to hit it.

I play tennis.\n\nI think that at the beginning you just need to do your best and try to hit the ball, at least!\nHowever, it is much more difficult to improve in this sport. The basic skills are something possible to learn, for everyone...\nIf you want to become super player with a great technique in your strokes, well, you'll need lots of training!\n\nDon't worry if you have never played. Are you going to take an instructor? It is important to tell him/her you've never played before. Try to listen carefully at what he/she says and look at how he/she hits the ball.\nIt might be difficult at the beginning, but you'll probably be able to hit the ball during your first day, if you really want to. Just try to do your best, don't worry if you feel like a stupid and you cannot do anything.\nAlso the greatest tennis players in the world were not good, when they began playing tennis! \nNo one is given to birth with a tennis racket in his hand!\n\nOnce you learn your basic skills, you will be able to improve your technique, be quicker and stronger. You just need time and lots of training.\n\nTennis is a wonderful sport. \nDon't give up if you don't like it at first: once you learn the basics and become confident with them, you will have much more fun and you'll look forward to improve and to compete against other players!


I just feel sick when I see how many people put him down.  I know I shouldn't stick my foot into the Government section, especially about Bush, but I just really wonder if anyone doesn't hate Bush.  I mean, even if you REALLY don't like Bush, do you absolutely HAVE to advertise it to the world?  I mean, I really did NOT like Kerry, or Gore, or especially Clinton, but I barely ever tell people that.  I didn't go around putting them down all the time.  And if you are going to put Bush down or something, please don't bother answering this.  I just want to hear from people who actually like Bush.  I mean, I don't ADORE him, but I don't hate him either.  I think he's a good man, whether he should be president or not.

great question.\n  for a man who works so hard, i respect him. the people who are always saying something about him are usually lazy and they want to sit on there butts all day and just complain. that man is probably sooo stressed out and the things people say about him probably isnt helping. i dont adore him either. i mean cmon..presidents come and go. I think it is immature to make a big deal about the decisons he makes. I mean yeah people disagree but some people take it way too far. He has a VERY tough job, and he doesnt make all that much. The news anchors who talk about him make 19 million a year...he only makes 400.00. thats not a lot for waht he does. I respect him as a person and I surely believe others should take the time to realize hes not a bad man. I AGREE WITH YOU 110 percent!


Occurs every few weeks, sometimes yellow in color when I'm finally able to cough it up.  While it's lodged I have a bad taste and the odor is horrible. It's spongy-
