MY BOYFRIEND HAS CHEATED ON ME AND GOTTEN THIS OTHER GIRL PREGNANT, SO SHE SAYS, HE SAYS DIFFERENTLY. NOW HE IS REALLY TRYING TO WORK OUR RELATIONSHIP OUT, HE IS BEING HONEST ABOUT EVERYTHING SO FAR, HE IS TRYING TO REGAIN MY TRUST. I JUST KEEP THINKING EVERYDAY, IS HE LIEING OR TELLING THE TRUTH, IT IS HARD TO BELEIVE ANYTHING HE SAYS.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.\n\nYou do not deserve sloppy seconds.  The baby can be DNA tested, and if it is his, then he will be supporting that child for the next 18 years.\n\nDo you see yourself celebrating that baby's birthday every year and being HAPPY about it?\n\nSay goodbye and move on!  You deserve better!


I'm curious if there were any FISA court wire taps issued at all since 9/11 or has the administration just ignored it completely?

I read an article on this topic some months ago. I will appreciate if someone can give me the reference or access to it.

if you narrow your time frame to the last 16 yrs... cisco is #1...rising over 20,000%


i am going to do a small project in biochemistry. please say some informations to do projects.

Study of "Mad Cow" disease.  Or maybe something on insulin and diabetes.


my friend wants to get a job at a local target but they only hire starting at 16. What's up with that??


Would you consider dating a larger person?  Even if you are skinny would you feel comfortable dating someone who is overweight?

Yes, I would date a larger person.  If I have things in common with the person, and I enjoy being with the person, then I wouldn't feel uncomfortable.


I told them at immigration in LA that I was staying for 3 months but after I left the airport and went to stay with my daughter I saw that they stamped 5 months on the visa...can I change my ticket for 5 months then even though I told them I was staying for 3 months?

Yes, you can change your ticket to stay for the entire period granted.\n\nYou can also apply for a visa extension, which, if granted, gives you a permission to visit for longer than 5 months.  However, be sure to only apply after the third month, but before the visa expires.\n\nWhatever you do, make sure to NOT OVERSTAY your visa (either the 5 months, or if extended, beyond the new expiry date), as doing so can result in your not allowing to re-enter US for TEN YEARS.


im only 24, but my muscles are slowly fading allready, sure i never have worked out, but dont you think it would take longer?

Plan a program of exercise and weight lifting for yourself and stick to it.  You will find the results amazing.


what is it? \nwhy are they important?\nwhat does it look like?

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions specifying the biological development of all cellular forms of life (and most viruses). DNA is a long polymer of nucleotides and encodes the sequence of the amino acid residues in proteins using the genetic code, a triplet code of nucleotides.\n\nIn complex cells (eukaryotes), such as those from plants, animals, fungi and protists, most of the DNA is located in the cell nucleus. By contrast, in simpler cells called prokaryotes (the eubacteria and archaea), DNA is not separated from the cytoplasm by a nuclear envelope. The cellular organelles known as chloroplasts and mitochondria also carry DNA.\n\nDNA is important because it is the molecule of heredity as it is responsible for the genetic propagation of most inherited traits. These traits can range from hair colour to disease susceptibility. During cell division, DNA is replicated and can be transmitted to offspring during reproduction. Lineage studies can be done based on the facts that the DNA in mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA) only comes from the mother, and the male "Y" chromosome only comes from the father.\n\nIt looks like an helix.


I'm in a pool at work where we're supposed to guess the score of the NFL playoff games each week. I was wondering if anybody knew a website which gave the vegas predicted scores. Thanks.

The Shows are all bad , I mean really bad....\nHas the imagination of the network writers died?\nWhat ever happened to those Neilson rating people?\nare they dead also? They just don't seem to notice\nwhen a show is really bad. TV today looks like the\nstuff MTV rejected... Whats Next, "NBC Pimped My Ride"?\nCan you name one show that is good? I,cant.If I were to \ntry to read between the lines I would have to say the answer\nis Money. They are even Cloning bad tv, there must be 10 different\ncourt/judge shows on at this very moment.and they just dont care.\nWhat do you think?

They must hand the Neilson boxes out to morons.

Do they have too many irons in the fire, or what? I've noticed for some time now, that their monthly cable guide is wrong almost every time I look at it.  And the auto pay. I was informed, that they are changing account numbers and I have to pay by other means untill it's done. So, I tried to pay check-by-phone and it's even turned off 'till the 3rd. I asked them once why the guide was wrong, they said because the networks change their schedules.  Not THAT often. What do you think?

Go with satellite.  I went that way, and have been very pleased.

Some people just copy and paste information from websites instead of putting it in their own words, and they don't even bother to put it in quote marks and cite the source. How should this be handled?

Death by shunning or cyber-stoning?\n\nTo some it is more importmant to appear to have all the answers than to let others know when they have looked up the answer.  Just because we cannot see them, they believe that most of us are as stupid and will not know even when we catch them doing this.\n\nI am afraid that this is the price the rest of us must pay to allow for anyone to use this site.  Perhaps if this is reported as abuse everytime they do this and someone catches them, Yahoo could kick them out?


I had this property for more than two years. I only paid off less than $3000 even though I was paying every month. It happenes because of ESCREW (includes quarterly portion of a property tax and Personal Mortage Insurance - PMI. This year my payments grew up from 1000 to 1350. Property value increased and so did taxes. I find it extremely unfair to charge those brave people who bought property in USA with property taxes. THEY ALREADY PAID TAX WHICH WAS TAKEN OFF THEIR SALARIES AND WAGES. WHY AGAIN? EVERYBODY TAKES MONEY AWAY FROM YOU: EDUCATION, HEALTH, HOUSING, DAYCARE. AND GOVERNMENT WASTES MY MONEY INSTEAD OF SPENDING IT ON MY NEEDS (EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, HOUSING). CROOKS !!!! I work 7 days a week as many hours as I can get, I NEVER WENT TO VACATION, I CANNOT GO TO DR (EVEN THOUGH I NEED AND NOW I STILL WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LIVE IN MY ONE-BEDROOM CONDO (BECAUSE OF TAXES).

Welcome to the real world.  They will take as much from you as you will allow.\n\nVOTE LIBERTARIAN!!


what is special about the company www.dell.com in terms of dis-/re-intermediation

Disintermediation means they cut the middle man and sell directly to the customer. Reintermediation would mean they would re-introduce a middle man, which I dont see Dell doing. Example: Levi Strauss & Co recently had to reintermediate their distributors (see source).


There is no "best" programming language.\n\nFor every programming task, there are languages that make it easier to write, and languages that make it difficult to write.\n\nFor example, some people think Java is the best language for everything. But, since Java doesn't have pointers, there's a whole class of programs that you can't write using Java.\n\nThere are programs that I can write in 5 lines of Perl that take 100 lines of C++, but I wouldn't want to write even a simple Window program using Perl.\n\nYou look at the problem you are trying to solve, consider the merits of each language, and pick the one that will give you correct solution with the least effort.


Years ago I learned a physics point when I was told that pure "heat" actually has weight.  \n\nIt was fascinating to me in learning that even though one pound may not seem much to us, in reality, that one pound of "heat" is quite immense and has huge amount of energy & force behind.  \n\nI can't find any reference to this physics trivia factoid.  Any takers?

reverie's wrong.  Most mass actually comes from kinetic energy, not rest mass.  you can correcly give energy (including heat energy) the same units as mass so it makes sense to say "one pound of heat"... but force is something different entirely.

I keep getting faxes from them at all weird hours of the day and early morning i.e., 1am, 3am etc...  I own a home business and this faxing is getting out of hand... Any help would be appreciated :-)

I just got the tout sheet faxed and called the 800 number to get off the fax which, in turn, allows them to sell your fax number to another boiler room to tout penny stocks.  This is only a boiler room set up - the SEC is so far behind the times that they cannot do anything to stop these guys - it is a waste of paper and time.  You are out of luck, just call the number to get off the list (and be prepared to keep getting a fax by the same group under another name) or accept the fact that you are on the list and will keep getting the fax.  \n\nWelcome to the world of corrupt investment scams.


im doing social studies so i need info about pioneers.


The monitor on my work computer switchs to the smallest resolution when the computer is rebooted, know how to switch it back but it would like to "save" the 1024 x768 setting can't figure that one out.

It should keep the setting you set when you reboot, unless your work is controlling/protecting the machine settings.  Consult the system administrator or helpdesk to get it changed.  You can tell them that you're having problems seeing it, and they have to fix it then because they wouldnt' want you to sue for unfit working conditions (i.e. they set the monitor resolution too high for you).  Remind them that it's an accessibility issue, that should do the trick.

My boyfriend sits around and watches porn with out me.  Is that normal or what...and yes he takes care of himself.

I think that it is normal in that lots of men do it...but it has lots of negatives as well.\nIt creates an untrue and unrealistic "image" - most women don't look like the women on the porn tapes.\nWhen he does it by himself - it's king of like cheating.\nIt can make the woman feel bad about herself and the relationship.\nHere's my advice - DUMP him - find a grown up that wants to live life with you - not play with his porn tapes.

The money I made was last year. I dont make much money now, so why dont they help me now? Is it because i want to work and help my family? Is it because I pay taxes, I need help like everyone else too. I dont thank its fare that if you dont work you get more money. If thats the case no one should work. They are no better than me, do you thank?

It is based on your previous years tax return. The logic is: if you are working, you have more money to help pay for your schooling. You can always take out a loan. The government is not obligated to pay for your higher education.\nGood luck!

I know there is obviously something i am missing here. Anyone out there willing to explain?

Some people and news agencies argue that labor strikes, hurricane threats to oil platforms, fires and terrorist threats at refineries, and other general problems are responsible for the higher gas prices. Critics argue that these problems periodically push price higher, but that they are not fundamental or long term enough to cause the large jump in gas price. A more fundamental problem that some believe is causing the price to raise is the probability of peak oil already or soon to be reached. Not only is there a limited amount of fossil fuels which have been burnt as fuel, but however much remains will be used faster by a growing industrialized world population and what remains will be more dificult to get since the easiest wells have been tapped and the remaining sources will be fought over in resource wars.\n\nOthers believe that the price of oil is almost entirely speculative, and that the increase in price is due to oil speculation extending into the long term. These people argue that speculators foresee increasing demand, decreasing supply, or both, leading to a long term increase in the price of oil. If these speculators are wrong, current prices may actually be a price bubble, and the price could thus collapse. A July 14, 2005 Morgan Stanley report suggests that opinions of the oil market could burst just like a bubble if indications of declining Asian demand continue.


Have a friend that i have know for many years,Well i been having a very stressfull life right now and wanted her to be their for me! But instead her answer to me was stop acting like a child and stop trying to be god! and not just u suffers from severe depression.I thought it was very rude! just wanted s friend to talk to.

because they were not a real good friend to begin with\n\nreal good friends go out of their way to help and do what's right.\n\nthey will either confront you with the problem so you can work it out\nor just hold it inside and not bring it up so not to hurt you.\nbut they will not stab you in the back..\nby the way you are awesome...totally awesome...

I know I have been suffering from depression, but I do not have insurance and cannot afford a doctor's visit or medication.  I do have a lot of support from family and friends...but behind closed doors i feel numb and very low...I have 5 children and my fiance is overseas in Iraq.  We are planning on getting married when he returns, and then I will have insurance, but between now and then how do I cope?  I'm so used to putting on a face, and pretending that everything is ok..and everyone is always telling me how strong I am when the whole time I am crying inside...any tips on how to cope with life in general???

Go to your local church and talk to the pastor. Find a hobby sometimes doing for others in need helps us to feel better. I am a retired military wife so I know some of your feelings. First you need to understand you can't take care of others until you take care of you.Call your boyfriends Ombudsman see if there are any groups through his company that helps deal with your concerns. Listen to people around you see if there is anything you can help them with and just keep busy don't sit and think to much sometimes that is not always a good thing to do.


They toured the country and helped out the departed. It was an hour long comedy.

I remember the show you're talking about - I thought I might recognize the name if I looked up "WB" on www.imdb.com but I didn't really see anything.\n\nDo you think it could've been called "Dead Last"??


like how do you turn two and one fifth into an improper fration?

2 1/5\n\n1. Write the mixed number as a sum:\n    = 2 + 1/5\n\n2. Change the whole number into an improper fraction by multiplying by 5/5 (which equals 1).\n    = 2*(5/5) + 1/5\n    = 10/5 + 1/5\n\n3. Add the two fractions.\n    = (10 + 1)/5\n    = 11/5


i am from saudi arabia i study in kfupm (king fahad universityfor petrolum & menarels) and i use the internet via the university but the university is blocking many web sites of many kinds?

Sorry dude! the access to external websites are monitored by your network administrators. \n\nThey set up proxy servers to block external access to some websites. like porn and games for example. \n\nThe best option you have is get some Network admin to be your good friend and ask him for proxy passwords. then you can bypass it. \n\nthe other thing could be that the blocking is done by your universities ISP and not the university themselves. in which case you'll have to contact their isp..

Currently ManUtd is eyeing Nemanja Vidic, one of the members of the Serbian and Montenegro ever famous defenders, also known as the 'famous 4'. ManUtd has been having problem with its defence lately, letting in quite a number of goals. If I;m not mistaken, Vidic has already agreed to join MU, passed medicals and are expected to start off sometimes real soon.\n\nThey have also been looking for someone to replace Roy Keane in midfield. Alan Smith has been playing great, but not as great as Keane I supposed. John Mikel Obi a youngster from Nigeria is among the ones MU interested in but is having some dispute with Chelsea over him.


My payment just went up $200 due to escrow shortage. Refi would be same rate, $31K cash out, $130 more a month. I've only been in home 2 yrs. but don't plan on going anywhere. I need to remodel kitchen and master bath - would do that with the $$. Is it smart to refinance and get the cash to upgrade the house? Or keep the mtg. I have - and keep the equity also... just in case I wanted to sell?

Refi may not be your best option. If you plan on staying in the house for at least 2 more years, get a home equity loan to make your improvments. Costs are less than a refi and you get the money sooner.\n\nYou say you may sell soon. It's important to note that it's hard to recoup your costs of selling in a two year time frame (depending on where your home is located). The East and West coast areas of the U.S. have appreciated alot in recent times.\n\n\nMaking improvements to a bath and kitchen are smart for resale. When thinking about improvements only make the ones that will pay you back $2 for every $1 invested.


Since they asre in water all the time, what constitutes a fish bath?

Fish have a what is known as a slime coat, or mucous layer all over thier body. This layer is continually rubbed off and worn off. It helps keep of bacteria and some parasites.\n\nSome fish with take a brief sabd bath or mud bath on the bottom substrate. While others enlist the aid of others. Many large marine fish will have a cleaner shrimp or cleaner wrasse pick off parasites.\n\nIn general fish do not get dirty, so there is no real reason for them to keep clean.\n\nThey have a slime coat for protection against cuts and scrapes and parasites, and that is all they need.


I can't post messages in adult Yahoo Groups. I can only post them through my email.

LOL. But not really out loud, more like a chukkle or two inside my mind...


In the header of the e-mail where does the Date and Time come from?  It never comes close to my computer date/time.

The "Date:" part of the message header does come from the email client. If you're using a web service to send email (like Hotmail or Yahoo mail) it will most likely reflect the time at the server itself and not from your pc.  (This may be where you're getting vastly different times reflected.)\n\nIf you're using an SMTP/POP service through Outlook or other non-web mail client, you should get something approximating your local pc time with a time zone indicator after the timestamp, like -0500 for U.S. Eastern, etc.\n\nHope that helps.


I'm doing a report on the book "A Separate Peace" by John Knowles. Theres a question in the report that asks what the idea of misplaced anger is. What I want to know is what would be an educational explanation for it?

A father comes home from work, angry at his boss for a dressing down he received. He fumes all the way home. He comes in the door, sits down to watch TV, the kids come running in, happy to see him and making a lot of noise. He screams at them to be quiet. He's not really mad at them, he screams at them because he can't scream at his boss without losing his job. That is misplaced anger.


Would your voice change or would you forget how to speak. I'm not saying if you never had contact,I'm saying if you hadn't spoke to a person for a long time. I'm thinking I would go crazy.

Do a search on "sensory deprivation".  Then you'll get the picture.


I'm 16 and getting ready to start college. I am going to get a bachelors in photography, however I have Always wanted to work with animals, i do not want to be a vet or in animal science. I just want to maybe own or manage a pet store or humane society and have the degree to be aloud to work with animals through animal nurseries. I saw in a class i took about animal nursery really being a career i just need to know what classes and type of degree i need to achieve this. I appreciate any help and suggestions.

If you are going to get a bachelors degree in photography, do you have to have a minor as well? I would think that you might want to consider minoring in business management (if you want to own or manage a store) or in animal science (you could learn about basic animal care, etc). \n\nAnother thing to consider is going to a community college or vocational program in animal science or veterinary science. That would give you the background in animal care. Some of these programs also give you some background in business management. The nice thing about community college programs is that they are often available part-time and at night, so if you are working as a photographer you can continue your education conveniently and at reasonable cost. I think if you look at small animal care programs that this is what you would find relevent and interesting.\n\nHere are examples of a two year program in small animal care:\nhttp://www.unh.edu/undergrad-catalog/0405/webtsas.html\n\nhttp://campus.devalcol.edu/smallanimal/index.htm\n\nThere are vocational schools that are private and offer non-degree programs in animal care. They are worth checking out, but I caution you to be very careful with reviewing the courses as there is less oversight of these programs and there isn't necessarily a national standard of coursework.


i do...i alway wondered if anyone else did....hmmmm

I don't. I used to though.\n\ni'm just not sure why you say 'i always wondered"....when 80% of the country is Christian. what is there to wonder?


IF I EVER NEED TO RELOAD WINDOWS XP HOME EDITON BECAUSE OF A CRASH OR VIRUS. I AM TRYING TO THINK AHEAD.........

Nowadays, most of the new computers come with Windows XP preinstalled or on "invisible" partitions on the hard drive.  That way, manufacturers don't have to provide installation CDs.  Due to this you will be unable to copy Windows XP from the hard drive to a CD.\n\nThe best way for you is to get a software installation CD from your computer manufacturer.  They provide with a Windows installation CD for cheap.  If you are a student, most big Universities also provide students with installation CDs for free or very cheap.\n\nFinally, you can buy it from a computer store like BestBuy, but it may be very expensive.  However, if you already own a Windows XP installation CD, you can make a copy for your own personal use.


Seriously, I see all these people in here that really want help with their problems and are seeking friendly and warm advice from others. What do they get in return? Answers like: Get a Life, You Are Dumb, You Suk, and whatever other nonsense you trolls like to do. I am just wondering...does it make YOU feel better about yourself to put others down? Why do people do things like that? I can if it was just a silly question that you KNOW is not serious, but this is happening to people who have heartfelt questions. Why? It's really sick, and it's not even close to being funny or interesting.

Actually yes, it turns my crank to make fun of people...and if you don't want people to answer your question the way they feel like answering it, then ask a friend the question, or seek professional help.. don't post it on the www.....It's what we call freedom of speech honey....I read a question and if it floats my boat to be a smart a$$ then I'm gonna be one aiight? So don't be a catty little whiny chic-a-boo....It's all in good fun,besides do you think that perhaps when someone is in a down mood, or sad about something and I answer their question using what we also like to call a sense of humor maybe if only temporarily it brings a smile to that persons face, even if only for a instant? So babygirl, Smile, grin and bear it...MUAH\n\nIf someone is suicidal then they need to go get them some prozac or something...And I'm sorry to say but people really do ask some stupid questions on here...I think that no matter what your feeling; If you ask questions on here you need to take the good with the bad, and if you can't handle it don't ask the friggin question....As I said it's freedom of speech...I ain't a Biotch and I sure as #$%* ain't gonna down people when they are being serious but c'mon now, if people read all the types of answers that are posted they would know to expect a crap answer at least once...and if you can't handle it then don't ask...plain and simple\nI geuss I should fix what I said, I AM A BIOTCH...and I will continue to be one, cause @ least I'm lmao on my end....To all you suicidal peeps look in ur local directory I'm sure there's a suicide hotline...IT IS CONFIDENTIAL to call


Our elementary school is thinking about departmentalizing next year.  We are now a building of K-5 and will be a building with 4-5.  My principal wants research to support this concept.  I have looked for hours.  I think I am going about it wrong.

I suspect that you will find very little research actually examining departmentalization. My fear is that this represents another "fad" in elementary education. While there are real benefits to departmentalization in the middle and high school, the behavioral characteristics of younger kids makes it less of a benefit. Many of the articles that you will see on this topic is likely to be based on opinion and not really on research.\n\nBurts, D., Charlesworth, R,. Hart, C. (1997).

I stopped cold turkey about 1 1/2 years ago. Let me tell you: it's a constant struggle, especially when I drink alcohol. You really have to convince yourself that you need and want to quit. It makes it easier when you can justify it by looking at your kids, family, etc and realizing that you want to be around them for as long as possible. That's about the best I can tell you. Good luck! If you really want to quit, you can do it without patches, gum, etc.

This is actually a very serious problem.  Microsoft just released a patch for it.  This vulnerability would allow someone to launch malicious code on your computer with your interaction.  All you would need to do is go to a webpage or open an email that has a properly crafted WMF image file.  There are a few tools already available that hackers and script kiddies are using to easily create these files.  \n\nI am just curious as to how many people are aware of this problem?

Yes. Most people having access to Windows update were notified of the vulnerability by security advisary. Lately Microsoft released a patch for the exploit which is available here : \nhttp://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/update/bulletins/200601_wmf.mspx

The population of this Earth at the present moment is over 6 billion people,the World ego systems can only substain so much.War may be bad,but it rids millions of people.If 100 millions die so that 5 million could live,wouldn't that be better than if everyone live in peace and die together because our ego system falls apart due to the stress on it?

It seems to me that natural disasters take a pretty good toll each year.  Perhaps you need to read the newspaper more often or listen to the news.  It's really amazing the knowledge one can gain by doing these things on a regular basis.  You might be amazed at the number of wars that are in progress, at any given, time around this unfriendly earth of ours.  Yet, the earths population continues to grow.  During WWII, Russia alone lost over 20 million people, yet here we are 60 years later and their population is as robust as ever.  War might resolve population explosion over the short term, but it doesn't take human kind very long to pick up the slack.  The ecosystem on the other hand, does need some immediate TLC.  The Icelanders may have found just the solution to a big part of the problem.  It seems that Iceland has a very short term timetable to convert all of its vehicles to hydrogen power.  Now as I understand it, hydrogen is the mixture of nitrogen and water which causes combustion.  It supposedly is not much cheaper than oil, however it is cleaner. Much cleaner. The problems this could solve are unlimited.  Just think, we could tell the whole middle east to blow itself to hell and take it's filty oil with them.  Sorry, I digress.  In summary, perhaps it is best to let mother nature take over the population issues, frankly I enjoy being there to help correct the problem when mother nature goes too far.


What can I put in my ear that is natural? Or any drugs.

I like Steelers but think its better if  a team that has never won gets lucky. Sentiment, Logic or LUCK, which criteria should prevail in choosing a team to root for.

logic..and judge is gay....lol..Steelers..they win , they can stop the seahawks run..did you see how SA was shining the second half against the pan?..steelers d is not gonna lay down like that...the hawks have an antsy QB ,the blitz will be perfect..HAHAHAHAHA.....they(hawks have alot of talent, i see how under a great coach they have strived to be better..they deserve to be where they are....but did you see RoeRoe(QB) on fire!!!???!!he was in the zone and the oc was pulling out all the stops...i look forward to the super bowl two great teams and two of the most emotional coaches in the game..since they both had 30 plus points in the last playoff games.... this Extra Large(XL)Superbowl should be one for the ages!!....now the superbowl wait begins!! ...Ben AKA RoeRoe..

i got hooked on self abuse and dont want to go on any more   please please imagine that i am your 22years old son or brother  please tell me

You've already taken the first step by recognizing the problem. My advice is to seek professional help. Get yourself a good therapist who will help you through the healing process. Realize that self abuse comes from an inner source of rage, frustration and self-doubt. When you are comfortable with yourself and everything around you the urges will stop. If you need more help IM me at roguefire28 on Yahoo Messenger.

Remember you only make money when you BUY a property, not when you sell it.  That means that you have to "make" your money when you buy the house.  Make sure you have enough equity in the house upfront to:\n\n1.  Repair the house for sale.  This includes all remodeling, landscaping, etc.\n2.  Carry the costs of ownership of the house while the repairs are happening.  If you take 45 days to repair the house, make sure you have 2 months worth of mortgage payments onhand.  This is called "carrying costs"\n3.  Pay the real estate agents.  Typically you will need to pay between 4-6% of your selling price in commissions to sell the house, depending on your area.  If you don't use a realtor, you can save that fee, but you might not get your property sold in a timely fashion and may eventually get less money for the house.\n4.  Cover the capital gains tax.  Remember, short term flips are taxed at 25% federal and (in CA) 9% state.  Make sure you get sound tax advice before you spend your profits.\n\nA good rule of thumb is to find out what the comps are like in the area, offer 70-80% of the comp value (this is CA, by the way .. if you aren't in a "hot" market, like CA, HI, FL, NY, etc, then offer 50-60%).  This should give you enough room to carry the loan, rehab the house and, to quote The Steve Miller Band, "Take the money and run!"

A guy who has owned a small shoe store near Union Square told me he doesn't even carry size 8 shoes anymore. Most of the women's sizes are now at least a 9. Any reasons for this?

It is likely because average height has increased over time, and feet grow proportionately to height. For instance, 20-29 year-old males were on average 68.9 inches and females 63.7 inches in 1960-62, but in 1999-2002, 69.6 inches and 64.1 inches respectively. It seems like a small difference, but that's a pretty large shift for a mere 40 years.


Have you heard that ICE CUBE doesn't pay his actors, such as Chris Tucker or any of the people who acted in his movies or has featured on his label?

I wouldn't think HE would pay them to begin with - that should come from the movie or recording studio, or whatever. I also seriously doubt that any of those people would agree to work for free.

How long should we use this antidepressant?  How many days, weeks or months?  Support your answer.

If your goal is to get well you should be on it as long as it is helping your symptoms. And remember the patient is not always the person who can best judge wheter it is working or not. Keep talking to your doctor, and if they feel your sysmptoms are not improving they will try something else. Another thing to consider is that it is best to fight depression with therapy and meds. Sometimes we can make our depression worse because of what we tell ourselves. Cognative behavioral therapy can help with that. And my final point is that in some cases the depression does go away so you don't have to take pills anymore, but yet again it is only the doctor who is capable of making that decision. Good luck.


What browser would you recommend?  My operating system is XP, 840Mhz(overclocked), 192 SdRam.

I have FireFox, IE, NS, and Opera installed as I do Web/Software  Dev...\n\n- FireFox...ranked number 1 WebBrowser...\nNice features and doesn't overload your PC...\n\n- IE - a Microsoft Product (lacks a lot of features) and has buggs)...the new version thoiugh (Version 7 Beta - which is part of Windows Vista) is Tab Enabled - supports Tab WebBrowsing...\n\n- NS simply uses the IE & FireFox Plugins to provide support for both NS & IE WebSites...its really slow though...\nA New release is now out - was out yesterday....just downloaded and haven't tested extensively, but comes with handy tools, as for speed wise, can tell now as I haven't tested that much to rate\n\n- Opera - for sure as they say, the fastest WebBrowser on earth, but has no support for ActiveX though...\n\n- As for SlimBrowser, NeoPlanet, and a lot of other Browsers, they simply use the Microsoft IE Plugin with their own interface and extra features...


What subject tests are needed for University of Pennsylvania and Babson College Undergraduate.\n\nAlso, when do you recommend that I take these tests...i.e. take MATH right after pre-calc, or whatever.\n\nI am reffering to College Board's subject tests.

I'd check the schools' websites or contact the admissions office. Generally, though, take the tests right after you take a class (like the math tests after or during your highest level math class) and take tests that accentuate what you're already good and and what you're interested in. For example, I took writing (before it was part of the new SAT), Spanish language, and Math (both the easy and hard ones) because I wanted to major in either writing or Spanish at the time and was pretty good at math, too. Good luck!


We have had Fidel Castro for a while now.  Then Hugo Chavez, Evo Morales and now Michelle Bachelet.    Does this sound scary enough:\n\nOn Dec 30th, 2005 during a speech in Cuba Morales describes Castro and Chavez as “the commanders of the forces for the liberation of the Americas and the world”. \n\nOn Jan 3rd, 2006 during a speech in Caracas, Evo Morales announces the consolidation of the “Axis of Good” between Caracas, Havana and La Paz, to counter the “‘Axis of Evil’ led by Washington ”.\n\nSource of quotes from wikipedia.org

No.What Fidel and Chavez are doing is to change the point of view about United States and they exterior policy to Latin Americans.This is achieving it, financing the campaigns to the socialist candidates of Latin America, such is the case of Evo Morales and Ollanta Humala, presidential candidate of peru.  Also the integration of Latin America manages to promoting the low " the dream of Simón Bolívar".  But I think that the intelligent leaders as Lula, the president of Brazil, the chosen president Michelle Bachelet, or the president of Argentina, Nestor Kirchner, the ones that agrees them to have relations with the United States, and although they share certain points of its politics with Chavez ó Fidel, they are but open and they will impede that Latin America become a species of Soviet communist block.

Headstrong, I grew up with a Mom that was like that.  Her opinion was the right opinion and she didn't even listen to other people.  I don't know where that need to always be right comes from but I do know a lot of people that seem to have that condition. : )


she is my best friend...and i am her bestfriend too...i know that she likes me more than a friend,and i love her from the deep of my heart...but..the problem is she is shy and i am scared to tell her the truth...we both are looking for you..please help

You should take her out to some quiet place, where you can talk. Tell her how you feel and that you wish to be more than just friends and give her some time to answer. Good luck

I think to get new teeth where my upper dentures are would cost me around $20,000, which I cannot afford.  I recently read in the newspapers that in 3 years, they will be able to grow missing teeth in someone's mouth. Did anyone else read about this and is it true?  If it is, I might as well wait three years.

They won't be growing teeth any time soon.  \n\nContact the local dental school.  They just may install implants for you, for FREE, because they are a teaching school.\n\nOr, save up for dental implants.  Start with the 2 front teeth, and work your way back, two at a time (one on each side), as you can afford them.

I live in SW France, and the climate has become too cold for me in winter and very hot in summer. Im looking to find somewhere to live where the property is good, but inexpensive.

Perhaps you may want to split your time between France and the US. Speaking french the area surrounding Lafayette LA may be a good choice especially in the areas such as Euncie, Opelousas where you can hear French being spoken.\n\nOne can buy a home starting at $60.000.\n\nLouisiana can be hot in the summer, but the fall winter could be ideal. last week the communties were in the 70 degree range.\n\nThe communities could use a good baker and with so much French cusine if you had cooking skils perhaps you could supplement your income and become an active member of the community.\n\nOther questions? mrtopproducer@Yahoo.com

That is wonderful that you have that much use!  My aunt has had 2 strokes & recovered from the first one greatly...the 2nd one not so much--can't do much with her left side.

Check with your doctor if there are any such groups in your area.\n\nThere is more info here too:\nhttp://info.stroke.org/site/PageServer?pagename=HOME\n\nThey have some ways listed to try & prevent another stroke.\n\nGood luck!


He refers to women as "girls" and "dames" and sometimes "broads". I have told him this offends me, especially "dames" and "broads", but he keeps doing it.He is also looking at a business to buy staffed entirely by women, and I have explained to him if he calls a female employee a "dame"  she might sue him, but he just laughed.

Ask him how he would expect men to treat you. Then explain how he treats other guys daughters, the women he is calling names.

Not really interested in why it would not be considered a science..just why it WOULD be..what are some of the arguments? Thanks

It's a social science; perhaps you might have a notion of it and other similar social sciences (philosophy, economics) not being a science due to a contrast between it and a physical science (physics, biology).  Social sciences deal with relationships between people and the world.


i am needing to know what a birth would be like in africa.

If the person can't afford a hospital - they would either have a midwife, or by themselves (maybe father of the child)with them. For the poor, a mother would have the baby wherever she is....


AS the parent of a sexual offenders, the seems to be no type of counselling available for me....I am the mother of an offender as well as\n the mother of 2 of his victims.

You may need just strait counselling .  I don't think your going to find any better help for that than a one on one w/ a doc and later you get your family in on it to.  This sounds like its going to take some time and work from you and your family


Why do some  people think that homosexuality is wrong because they can't procreated when the world is over -populated with not enough food to feed everyone in the world,other than the bible just saying so.there are gay animals.They go by instint alone.They are not doomed.It's in there nature,just like homosexuality is apart of nature,so why is it wrong?

You are correct the current growth rate of the world's population is unsustainable by any measure.  I wouln't be so quick to put the blame on religion, however.  It's hard to imagine living in a free country where there are some sort of authority telling you how many kids you can have.  It's a big problem.  \n\nThe part of the bible that says homosexuality is wrong also condones slavery and treating women as property.  I think it is sad that modern Christians cherry pick this homosexuality thing and hold it up as if it were something as important as what Jesus said, however they completely disregard the whole thing about a rich man having almost no chance to go to heaven, which scriptures said Jesus was extremely specific about.  \n\nModern christian belief is full of justifications and loopholes like the whole "love the sinner hate the sin" thing.  How many christians go to prison and tell the child molesters that they love them?  If you love the sinner, then how come it's ok to execute them?  Do you execute people you love?  In America Christians favor the death penalty more than any other group.\n\nThere are however, sects of christianity that are loving and caring and don't pick and choose what they like in the bible.  The salvationists (the salvation army) is one that comes to mind.  They are truly good people.


If you have bad credit and the balance hasnt been paid does it stay on your report waiting for you to pay it off and then 7 more years after that?

from what I have been told, most accounts in good standing,  stay on your credit reports for 7 years, while most accounts with negative history can stay on for up to 10.


i would have swore that up to a few years ago zone defense could not be used..

No, it has only been allowed since the 2001-2002 season, when they took the following determinations:\n1-Eliminated all existing illegal defense guidelines. \n2-Established a defensive 3-second rule, limiting the amount of time a defensive player may stand in the lane when he is not closely guarding someone. \n3-Reduced from 10 seconds to 8 seconds the amount of time a team will have to advance the ball past midcourt.\n4-Eliminated touch fouls by allowing brief contact initiated by a defensive player if it does not impede the progress of the player with the ball. \n\nHope this clarifies your doubts.


This does not revolve around me, but amongst my friends. Are these true, that once he/she has cheated on you once before, that he/she will always do it?? Or could they possibly change after doing anything in their will to get you back?? I'm searching for the answers to these questions . . . thanx.

its not a must but most probably once he/she did it then it will be easy and he/she will get another reason for doing it again and again


I'm catholic but i hear people talking about "the right relgion"  what is that? wouldn't he love me even if I wasn't a baptist, etc?

I'm planning on going into Public Relations and need a minor that will be useful.

Well, if you are majoring in Communications and are interested in PR, then why not minor in PR? If your college does not offer PR as a minor, then Political Science works as well. Another good minor is Sociology, since it provides the social/global issues background you're going to need to relate to the public as a PR representative. In short, anything that provides a background in public speaking, writing, and social issues is a good minor for a Comm major interested in the PR business.


yes I got pop-up protection that the ms explorer comes with but with else can I do??

there is a button on the toolbar that says "popups ok". click on that to block popups.  It will then say: "popups blocked."  u can also go into your start menu under control panel, go to internet options, in that, click on privacy, then u can increase the level, also u can block more popups by checking the box that says popups blocked/allowed on the bottom

Do you get more money back using a CPA or not? What advantages do they offer? Are they worth the money?

First off not every CPA prepares Tax Returns.  CPA stands for Certified Public Accountant, and like attornies or doctors they deal with certain specialties.  If you want a professional tax preparer who is up to date with the latest tax laws and is used to dealing with the specifics of your financial picture look for a CPA that specializes in Tax Preparation or find an EA (Enrolled Agent) who is licensed to prepare taxes and defend you in the event of an audit, CP2000 letter, or other tax concern.  Tax software is very generic and only useful for a very basic tax return unless you are able to keep up with tax law changes yourself.  Not much better would be a retail tax outlet like H&R Block who on the whole are less concerned with accuracy and more concerned with getting you in & out quickly with a refund rather you are due one or not.

Reflecting telescopes are popular because they're?\n\nA.more powerful than a refracting telescope.\nB.smaller than a refracting telescope.\nC.easier to build than a refracting telescope.\nD.more durable than a refracting telescope

C is true. The others don't really make sense.\nThey are also inherently chromatic, more efficient. Even small ones are cheaper for the size than refracting. \nHubble Space Telescope is reflector also it will work with Ultra violet light, and more precisely focuses than glass can.


cause i over heard someone saying that the pickups on samicks suck and that the play quality is really sucky i don't think so personally but does any one here feel that samicks are a bad brand of guitar?

Fender will always sound great and it maintains an excellent resale and trade-in value. If you need more distortion with a Fender, simply get a decent compressor or tube driver to plug your guitar into first. Fender is played by all the greats.

i have heard mention of him in several anti-war/military songs. including the grateful dead's "uncle john's band". was he a real person or a symbol of sorts?

For the grateful dead angle...\nIt is not truly known who "uncle john was".  It is believed that it refers to John Cohen, of the New Lost City Ramblers.  John Cohen's nickname was Uncle John, and the lyrics of the song GD Uncle Johns Band reference songs from New Lost City Ramblers (NLCR).  Also, Jerry was said to have attended many NLCR shows in Cali.  In David Dodd's book, there is a semi-confirmation of this theory from Robert Hunter.


it itches me most especially at night, and my skin is scaly, and dries up easily and its wrinkled.

When winter months set in, drier weather does also, causing your skin to become more dry and itchy. At my house, we use a humidifier to put moisture back into the house to counteract the drying air from heat.  Also try a body cream. Lotions are lighter but creams at night are heavier and lock in moisture better. \n\nIf this doesn't work, you could also try seeing your doctor. You may have a more serious condition such as exema.\n\nHope this helps!


Just a word of thanks for your responses to "Fighting for air".\nI am so glad i found this site. I felt so much better after reading the responses from people who have already been there. I have fought so hard to get to where i am today and you guys helped me realize that. THANKS AGAIN!!!!

I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I have around the clock headaches, extremely low energy, sore spots on my body, aching joints and muscles, neck pain, back pain, I have a hard time concentrating or focusing, have anxiety, and stay worried and stressed all of the time and I can't help it. These are all symptoms of fibromyalgia and everything I have tried hasn't worked. I have 4 children who need more of me than what they are getting due to my physical condition. What is the best cure for this?

I have had fibromyalgia for over 10 years and when I first got it, I felt pretty much how you described.  \n\nIt took me years of research and application to find what works best for me.  Every person is individual, so you will have to go by trial and error, but here is some of what I do...\n\n1. Take an antidepressant. I've tried many prescribed by my doctor and found that even St.John's Wort works very well.  The antidepressants raise your seretonin levels, (the feel good chemical in your brain,) and you just generally feel better all over.\n\n2. Get some exercise every day. Not too little, but not too much.  Too little will allow your muscles to become stiff and sore but too much will make them ache like crazy.  I find yoga and walking to be the two best exercises for me. I do them every day and my body feels 1000% better.\n\n3. Eat a healthier diet.  Too much sugar, white flour, fat and carbs, seem to exasperate the condition.  Try to stick to natural foods, whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables.\n\n4. Get enough sleep and rest.  Try to get 8 hours of sleep each night if possible. If you have what I do, and wake up each night and toss and turn, try taking a herbal sleep remedy.  Valerian and passionflower worked very well for me. They sell sleep remedy blends in health food stores and I find they really help. \n\n5.  Mediation and relaxation...even if it's only for 5 minutes a day, will make a big difference.  I know you said you have 4 children, and I have 5, all boys, so I know it's really hard to get any time to meditate or relax, but it's really, really, important if you are going to be any good to them.  You have to take care of yourself.\n\n6. Journalling. Again, I know this takes time, but it is the best way to get your feelings out of you.  If you don't have someone you can share you feeling with, then write about them.  Holding all your feelings inside causes a lot of tension, and I believe that's where and how Fibromyalgia starts.  Once I started writing, and crying, releasing some of my pain and withheld emotions, I really started feeling better.\n\nI wish you all the best of luck. You are living with a difficult chronic condition.  Take good care of yourself.  That's always the best place to start.\n\nTake care.\n\nKathy


How do magnetic stripe cards work (i.e. Hotel Cards) and how do you read/write in their "memory"?

Check this article out: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/question662.htm\n\nYou essentially need a magnetic card reader/writer to encode the data onto the strip.


My nails are like paper thin,and i've tried everything i know. HELP!

Try eating more Jello. Believe it or not, Jello or foods with geletin in it helps nails become more healthy. I play guitar with the nails of my right hand and learned of this and use it myself to strengthen my nails to withstand the stresses guitar strings put on my nails.


If you eat me, you can die if I am poisonous.\nHowever, you can live if I am good.\n\nEasy one!!!

Kids theoretcially have the same rights, but as minors can still be told to what to do by adults so it might not always seem like they have equal rights.

I'm looking for some good XP Tips Websites? Friends please post the links ,\n\nThanks in Advance

Here is my favorite tweaks site:\nhttp://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm


He's a really cute guy, and he sit rightnext to me in my last period class. And he talks to me everyday, singing songs for me when i'm not smiling. And then when he talks to me, it's really hard to talk, because i can't stop looking at him. it's HARD to go half an hour in science without looking at him. How can i go out with him? So, any romance answers?

It sounds like he likes you, so if he is too shy to make the first move, it may be up to you to make it. Try asking him if he has seen, or wants to see  a certain movie that is playing. Then say you want to see it too, but have no one to go with... He might just get the hint, if not, then say, "Hey, why don't we go together!?" That way he will know you are not adverse to going out with him and from there, he SHOULD take it. Good Luck.


my web site was working fine yesterday but today i cant load it. i cant load the site i used to built it too. how can i fix that?

Check with your host.  The problem may be there.  Could also be a DNS problem.  Go to internic.com and perform a Whois search on your domain to make sure the info is correct.


In Greek mythology, Elysium was a section of the Underworld (the spelling Elysium is a Latinization of the Greek word Elysion). "Elysium is an obscure and mysterious name that evolved from a designation of a place or person struck by lightning, enelysion, enelysios. (Burkert 1985 p. 198)\n\nThe Elysian fields, or sometimes Elysian plains, were the final resting place of the souls of the heroic and the virtuous. Two passages in Homer established for Greeks the nature of the Afterlife: the dreamed apparition of the dead Patroclus in the Iliad and the more daring boundary-breaking visit in Odyssey. Greek traditions concerning funerary ritual were reticent, but the Homeric examples encouraged other heroic visits, in the myth cycles accreted upon Theseus and upon Heracles (Campbell 1948; Ruck and Staples 1994).\n\nThe Elysian Fields lay on the western margin of the earth, by the encircling stream of Oceanus (Odyssey), and there the mortal relatives of the king of the gods were transported, without tasting death, to enjoy an immortality of bliss (Odyssey book iv: 563). Hesiod refers to the Isles of the Blessed (makarôn nêsoi) in the Western Ocean (Works and Days). Pindar makes it a single Isle. Walter Burkert notes the connection with the motif of far-off Dilmun: "Thus Achilles is transported to the White Isle and becomes the Ruler of the Black Sea, and Diomedes becomes the divine lord of an Adriatic island." (Burkert 1985, p. 198).\n\nIn Elysium were fields of the pale liliaceous asphodel, and poplars grew. There stood the gates that led to the house of Ais (in Attic dialect "Hades").

[Since we can't write anyone directly anyway....] In what manner is this addiction hurting you, or helping you -- why do you think you are? and do you wish you could do something about it? Does it bother you? Does it affect your relationships? I'm asking because I get the sense our culture is an "addict" culture, sex being one of those addictions.

Not addicted but I certainly think about it a lot. haven't experienced it in over six years (No small thanks to Zoloft!) but I don't particularly miss it. Only want it within the context of a loving relationship!


Why should we fear Him if we're trying to do what's right? Can someone help me out with that?

It doesn't mean to be afraid of him.  It means to respect him and honor his wishes and think of how much he loves and cares for you and what he has done for you.  A "fear" of God is basically just having a conscience.  Knowing right and wrong and knowing when God wouldn't approve of something.


If you've ever smoked a clove cigarette, you'll know the difference. I just want to know what the active ingredient or whatever in clove cigarettes that causes your body to react in such a fashion..

Contrary to popular belief, clove cigarettes, also called kreteks, contain tobacco — they are made up of 60 - 70 percent tobacco and 30 - 40 percent shredded cloves (a spice). Considering their tobacco content, clove cigarettes are probably as harmful and dangerous as regular cigarettes. As a matter of fact, kreteks may hold even more risk than ordinary smokes. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), clove cigarettes produce at least twice as much nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide as regular American cigarettes brands.\n\nPlus, there may be an additional risk due to their clove content. The major active ingredient in cloves is eugenol, which is a topical anesthetic used in dentistry. The short- and long-term health effects of eugenol are not well known, and little inhalation toxicology research has been done on this substance. However, when smoked, eugenol numbs the throat and impairs the gag reflex. This anesthetizing effect could cause some problems; for example, liquids and/or food could more easily go down the wrong pipe. Smokers may not feel the harshness of the smoke as strongly, so they are more likely to inhale the smoke more deeply and hold it in the lungs for a longer period of time before exhaling. As a result, it's possible, or even likely, that eugenol has the potential to facilitate lung infections, respiratory illnesses, or allergic reactions in certain users, especially in smokers with existing breathing problems and/or other sensitivities.\n\nAlthough clove cigarette smokers share some adverse health symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, allergic reactions, bronchitis, pneumonia, and coughing up blood, the cause-and-effect relationship between smoking clove cigarettes and these symptoms has not yet been definitively established. Regardless, it seems reasonable to assume that clove cigarettes are as harmful and dangerous or even more so than standard cigarettes.\n\nClove cigarettes are one of several kinds of alternative smokes. Others include bidis (tiny, inexpensive, flavored dark tobacco containing cigarettes hand rolled with a dried tendu leaf), herbal or vegetable-based cigarettes with no tobacco and nicotine, and additive-free, natural tobacco cigarettes. Often, alternative cigarette smokers are part of the under 30 crowd. People smoke the "alternatives" because they think that they are cool and/or safer, healthier, and more natural to smoke than standard smokes. Cool or not, smoking alternative cigarettes can be as harmful and even dangerous to one's health as regular ones.


I'm talking about the penis size.\nDoes the size of the boat count, or is it the motion of the ocean?

Yes, but it doesn't matter a lot.  \nGuys, would you turn down the girl of your dreams because her chest was not as big as you hoped? Of course not.\nWe're quite lucky as guys.  Women are emotional in what turns them on. It's possible to bring a woman to orgasm by whispering the right things in her ear. \n\n  We should all stop obsessing over this.  \n\nRemember these facts:\n1.  Even shallow women are more interested in the size of your wallet.\n2.  If a girl is really into YOU, you'll magically become the biggest dude she's ever seen and she'll tell all her friends - they're delusional that way.\n3.  A little gas changes the whole picture, and she'll be wincing in pain at your mini derringer.\n4.  Sadly, after 30 and a few kids, it won't make a difference anyway.  If she participates at all, she's just doing you a favor!


How do I get this one man I love so much tell me he loves me more?Plus I want to be with him 24/7.But we work different hours and live 25 miles from each other.Please help me figure this one out.

If he already tells you he loves you, you should be thankful. It takes a lot for men to admit to their feelings and just because they don't say them as much as we would like, doesn't mean they don't feel them. As long as he's showing you he loves you, you are good! And I can totally understand how you feel about wanting to spend more time together, but you just have to make the best of the time you do have together until you reach a point where things are better.


i think what i need is a friend who i could kick it wit and not have to worry about anybody or anything. i need someone who i could talk to and who will talk to me.

Well of course!  Unprotected sex even if the male does not ejaculate in your body can lead to pregnancy!\n\nThere is always a chance some sperm could have leaked out in you.


I frequently have trouble going to sleep at night. What helps you go to sleep when your brain just doesn't want to shut down and call it a night?

When your brain doesn't want to stop its chatter, it usually means that your brain is low on Serotonin (a neurotransmitter).  Foods that are high in Tryptophan (an amino acid) help you make serotonin.   Unlike other amino acids, the FDA decided they didn't want tryptophan to be available, so you can't get it over the counter. \n\nSome tips I have used:\n1. avoid exercising late in the afternoon.  It encourages your body to make adrenalin that keep you wound up.  Exercise earlier when you can use up that extra energy.\n\n2. Sleep in a dark room.  Do not do anything else in that room.\n\n3. Start a routine before going to bed.  The longer the better.  Say, brush your teeth, put on your pajamas, write in a journal (also good for relaxing), listen to some relaxing music.  It's a little like Pavlov's dog - you train your body that when you start your bedtime routine, you know it's time for you to get sleepy.  Like Pavlov's dog was trained (by being fed when the bell rang) to salivate when the bell rang.  \n\n3.  Try meditating at night.  Meditation and deep, slow breathing have been shown to increase the levels of serotonin.\n\nAs a silly measure - this is something I recently read:  when you can't get your mind to stop chattering, try making up your own nonsense language to talk in.  If you can't stop the brain talk, drown it out with nonsense.\n\nI have had very big problems with sleep disturbances.  I was actually diagnosed with narcolepsy for a time.  A really interesting (scary at the time) side effect was that when I was so exhausted that I fell into a deep sleep, I would almost immediately awaken, but my body would remain "asleep" for several minutes longer.  Apparently, your body is paralyzed from the neck down when in a dream state.  \n\nDon't let it get that far.  Hope you get lots of good ideas to try and that they work for you.


I completely forgot who sings it, and what it's called. All i remember is that it is just a little girl (dressed in a bumblebee costume) and she's in search of her bumblebee friends. And she finds them at the end. If anyone knows what im talking about, and posts it, that'd be great.

The music video you're thinking of is to Blind Melon - No Rain. It first appeared on the self titled album in 1992, and was released as a single the following year. Shannon Hoon, who died of a drug overdose in 1995 was the lead singer of the group.


In 1966 , South korea ,was a huge surprise .

I think Japan would do well this time. They really impressed in the last Confederations cup, especially in their match against the mighty Brazil. Moreover, with Zico as their Coach and with the determination and zeal from the players, South Korea's feat might just be repeated.

can you think of a contemporary criminal case where the defendant has argued that he/she was a victim of social forces?

Karl Marx once said: "A house can be large or small; as long as the surrounding houses are equally small it satisfies all social demands.  But if a palace rises beside the little house, the little house shrinks into a hut."\n\nIn other words, the value one places on their own material possession is relative to how that individual perceives the value of of the material possessions of others.  \n\nThroughout history and in all societies, there has always been some notion that society can be divided into the "high" and "low" classes, and, Karl Marx held that the primary social division was between a "ruling class" and a working class.  \n\nCriminologists, for their part, evolved early on in history from being poverty researchers into becoming inequality researchers.  Poverty and inequality are not the same thing.  The last "poverty causes crime" criminologists were Guerry and Quetelet in France during the early 1800s, and perhaps a few Marxist-inspired criminologists in the early 1900s. \n\nThese three quotes are from the paper, “Poverty, inequality, and crime.” At:\n\nhttp://faculty.ncwc.edu/toconnor/301/301lect07.htm\n\nMarx concluded, the malefactor, the cause of all this limitless human misery, was the capitalist. His crime, felonious by all canons of human decency and fairness, was the unrecompensed piracy from the defenseless industrial workers of most of the wealth which they alone created. No plunder in history, said Marx, could compare with the enormity of the offense of the capitalist who, without working himself, appropriated the products of the worker, leaving the worker with only the minimum amount paid as "slave-wages" to keep him alive and to enable him to produce.\n\nThis is a quote from an article at:\n\nhttp://www.cesj.org/thirdway/almostcapitalist.htm\n\nMarx blamed the capitalist, the class distinctions, the unequalness of people.  He completely missed the point that the capital of the capitalist creates new wealth and jobs for others.  That such creation is a ladder which people can climb on their own initiative to better their lot in life.  Where Marxist concepts ruled, people (except for a ruling elite) dropped to the lowest common denominator.  Where capitalism flourished the average standard of life increased as did the opportunities for one to change the direction of their life.\n\nMarx’s theories are interesting but not realistic.


Have a problem that asks to convert 3E7C from hexedecimal to decimal.....can you help me with this?

If you write the codes for 16 digits in binary out -\n\n0000 - 0\n0001 - 1\n0010 - 2\n0011 - 3\n0100 - 4\n0101 - 5\n0110 - 6\n0111 - 7\n1000 - 8\n1001 - 9\n1010 - A\n1011 - B\n1100 - C\n1101 - D\n1110 - E\n1111 - F\n\nThen take 3E7C, match the four digits on the chart:\n\n0011 1110 0111 1100 =\n\n11111001111100\n\nThats hex to binary conversion, to decimal, you just add your exponents of two, reading binary number from right to left:\n\n2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5 + 2^6 + 2^9 + 2^10 + 2^11 + 2^12\n\n= \n\n15996\n\nI admit there's a more direct path to the number, but rememebring the way above allows you do any decimal/binary/hex conversion neededed, so its all I've remembered.


It's stupid!  Yes you did, and you meant it.  So why don't just cut to the chase, and say it like you mean it.  Instead, of hiding behind words, trying to make it funny.

Yes, I hate it. It makes you just wanna hurt the person who said it.


Yes it does.  Always thought he was speaking in the voice of the "China Girl" there, and thought it in questionable taste.


Was he really the messiah? Some think of him as a Prophet and others of him as a very wise man. And Did he really die on the cross?\n\nBack up your answer.

i really dont know what it is said in your beleifs, but in mine it says the following\n\n\n"The Messiah, son of Mary, was no other than a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) had passed away before him. And his mother was a saintly woman. And they both used to eat (earthly) food. See how We make the revelations clear for them, and see how they are turned away! "\n\n005.075 \n\n\n" They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. Say: Who then can do aught against Allah, if He had willed to destroy the Messiah son of Mary, and his mother and everyone on earth? Allah's is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them. He createth what He will. And Allah is Able to do all things. "\n\n005.017 \n\n\nThe Holy Qur'an\n\n\nyes he is The Messiah, yes he is a prophet from almighty God and a wise man because almighty God gifted him with wisdom.\n\n\nanswering more of your question, No he didnt die on the cross the people that were after him to kill him found someone that looked alike to Jesus but was never Jesus, almighty God raised Jesus to the upper heavens\n\n\ni quote for you more from the Holy Qur'an\n\n"That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:- "\n\n004.157 \n\n\n\ni really hope that answered your question

i would say it has been "my experience" that women dont like sports because they dont fully understand them ... if you can sit down with her and explain stuff in a calm and very imformative way .. and answer ANY AND ALL questions she may have ... and when she begins to gets it just let her go with it .. then include her ... give her a drink of her choice wether it be soda or a mixer ... and then try and make it fun ... just dont brush it off as whatever ... ... \n\nDarryl Reeves\nDemopolis, Alabama


If someone on here takes a dislike to you, they could report abuse everytime they see your questions or answers. Is this fair? If your id and profile are removed, are they removed from all of yahoo? Is that fair? Sometimes I give answers that may offend someone. I don't intend to. Can't please all of the people all of the time, can you? A lot of the questions are offensive or just plain stupid. This is all for entertainment. No one is licensed to give advice here, are they? Do you disrespect your friends everytime you don't see eye to eye, or do you turn the other cheek?

If the content you are posting is fair, then you'll pass all or nearly all of the abuse reports and you shouldn't get kicked. Plus, when a report is agreed with, you get a chance to respond to the report.\n\nI would hope that if somebody makes enough failed abuse reports, that they would lose the ability to make them for a good period of time (I'd suggest at least 6 months). This would, of course, have to be coupled with giving people better feedback on the reports they made, and reporting borderline cases shouldn't count against them.

I DONT KNOW WERE TO START WHAT TO DO, HAVE NO PARENTS OR FAMILY MEMBERS TO HELP.

The college you want to attend normally has an admission application. Usually this admission application also has information for financial aid. You may also want to go in and talk to an admission representative at the school, or a high school guidance counselor.

I was taking a practice ASVAB, and one of the questions posed the question How much footpound will do? It completely threw me off and i need to know what is a footpound and how much will do.

Foot-pounds describe a force.\nUsually used to specify a turning force such as a lever.\nThe value is the distance multiplied by the weight.\nSo if you double the length of the lever, you will double the total turning force.


if yours is the funnyest you get the 10 points, make is short PLZ

I know its not short, but I couldn't resist:\n\nRed States vs. Blue States\n\nWith the Blue States in hand, the Democrats have firm control of 80% of the country's fresh water, over 90% of our pineapple and lettuce, 92% of all fresh fruit production, 93% of the artichoke production, 95% of America's export quality wines, 90% of all cheese production, 90% of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Amherst, Stanford, Berkeley, CalTech and MIT.\n\nWe can live simply but well.\n\nThe Red States, on the other hand, now have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans (and their projected health care cost spike), 92% of all US mosquitoes, 100% of all tornadoes, 90% of all hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, 100% of all Televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.\n\nA high price to pay for controlling the presidency.\n\nAdditionally, 38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually eaten by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44% believe that evolution is just a theory, 53% that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11 and, most difficult of all to grasp, 61% believe that Bush is a person of moral conviction!


will i get admission in oxford or any other good university?\nwill i be able to keep my parents happy?\nwill my fathers dream project work good?

It sounds like you're thinking too much. You need to relax.  \nYou'll get into a good university if you try hard enough, you're parents may never be happy but it's YOUR life! And only your father can make his dream project work good--life's hard enough without you worrying about other peoples' problems, regardless of whether he is your dad or not.  I'm certain that whatever his dream it doesn't include having his child stressed out over HIS life.  \nAnd by the way, you will NEVER find anyone who shares EVERY thought with you, it's impossible.  But you will find someone who will be able to ADD to what you already know and for whom you can do the same.


electric chair ,lethal injection,hanging etc. would age matter or the crime

I am absolutely against the death penalty, in all cases, no matter what the offender did, who the victim is, and so on.\n\nWe punish murder because we think (as societies) that murdering is wrong. So, we cannot simply kill a person just because this person has killed! That is plain revenge, not justice! It is doing to them what we're criticising them for doing! Remember this: "Do as I tell, not as I do"?\n\nLeave alone killing other criminals, who aren't killers themselves. In that case, we're doing to the offender something much worse than what they did in the first place.\n\nAnd what about people who are innocent? What about the political use of the death penalty? What about the fact that most of the victims are black or Latinos, poor and powerless? Don't Anglo-Saxon, wealthy and powerful people commit crimes? And even if they didn't (which is not true), doesn't anybody wonder what makes poor people commit crimes, in the first place?\n\nAs long as the death penalty is legal anywhere in the world, we're no better than animals. At least, they only kill when they're hungry. Humans make the state kill on our behalf, only because we are a very cowardly species.


this guy i like said he knows what im hinting what dose that meen ????

He means that he understands what you are trying to say(what you are getting at).


Me and my fiance have been together 4 6 years now and wants to get married.  He has his best friend 4 11 years now and when the friend comes to visit (which is a lot) he sleeps over and they play computer games the whole night while I lay alone in bed waiting untill I fall asleep.  Is it wrong of me to ask his friend don't sleep over any more after we get married and visit less often?

i think maybe you need to find a compromise between the two. You can ask him to not have his friend sleep over, but dont ask him not to visit. having close friends is really important, and if he and his bud are as close as they sound it will cause some tension between you and your soon-to-be hubby. Let him know that you feel left out when his friend is over, and that you feel like its causing you to have resentment for that friend, which is obviously something you dont want. hopefully he will take a minute to think about how things are affecting you, and alter his behavipr accordingly.


How do the distance-time graphs for these two speeds differ?

well Bus B travels less distance in the same time, meaning the velocity is greater for bus B and since velocity is the slope on a distance time graph, the slope of the graph would be steeper for bus B than for bus A.\n\nif you need a numerical answer, the slope for bus A would be:\nv= d/t= 300/12= 25 m/s\nand the slope for bus B would be:\nv= d/t= 200/12= 16.67 m/s


Andromeda, in astronomy, northern constellation located to the NE of Pegasus and to the S of Cassiopeia. Its brightest star, Alpheratz (Alpha Andromedae), marks the northeast corner of the Great Square in Pegasus. The constellation also contains the bright stars Mirach (Beta Andromedae) and Almach (Gamma Andromedae) and the famous Great Nebula, or Andromeda Galaxy, the only galaxy visible to the naked eye in the Northern Hemisphere. Andromeda reaches its highest point in the evening sky in November.


How important is the portrayal of Moria to the themes of the novel?

Have you actually read this book yet? It's really quite a good read. I think that once you've read it, the question will be fairly obvious to you.


Why does the Phillapeano Language have so much Spanish in it?

The Phillipines have been under the rule of the Spanish for 333 (1565 to 1898). Within that span of time, the Spanish culture have been immersed greatly with the native culture. Such had been the case with the British colonization of America as well.\n\nThe official language, by the way, is called Tagalog.


What is the exact source of the name America?  Who, when, where, why?

the name was derived from the Latinized version of the explorer Amerigo Vespucci's name, Americus Vespucius, in its feminine form, America, as the other continents all have Latin feminine names.


Is it lack of oxygen as some people suggest? And if so, does the physical action of yawning provide us with more oxygen, or is the yawn just an alert to let us know that we need more oxygen? Or is this whole lack of oxygen thing made up? It's bugged me for years! ;-)

It’s widely assumed that yawning occurs because we are tired or bored or because we see someone else doing it, but there isn’t any hard evidence to support these beliefs.\n\nThe most plausible explanation, and the one that is taught in medical school, is that we yawn because oxygen levels in our lungs are low. Studies have shown that during normal, at-rest breathing, we don’t use anywhere near our lung capacity; for the most part, we just use the air sacs at the bottom of the lungs. If the air sacs, called alveoli, don’t get fresh air, they partially collapse and the lungs stiffen a bit. As a result, it’s believed, our brain prompts the body to either sigh or take a yawn to get more air into the lungs


My friends always warned me not to eat while eating. I just wonder if it is scientific or not.

It isn't that it's bad for you--as it will directly hurt you.  But it does make you less aware of what you are eating & if you are trying to eat less, you might want to just eat without watching tv.
