i'm having trouble mantaining my weight! It's like a roller coaster. It could be 150 one week then 165 another!!\nI need help getting back to 125! i'm 170 right now!!! :(\nI've tried exersise, and dieting. It doesnt work.

Exercise and diet together usually work the best. Have you had a physical lately? Perhaps your doctor can give you some insights on your weight fluctuation--15 lbs from one week to the next is quite high. Are you succeptible (sp?) to water retention? \n\nOne of my doctors mentioned recently that accountability is a big help when trying to adopt a healthier lifestyle. Have you tried joining Weight Watchers? Having the weekly meetings and weigh-ins is helpful to many. There are also a number of online groups, message boards, and websites that offer ideas and support.\n\nTime and consistency are also important. It may have taken you a while to put the weight on, and it may take you a while to take it off.


I saw a site recently that walks you through some questions to see which medicines you take and if you can get help from the drug manufacturers to get your medicines for free.\nAnyone have the URL of it?

Are you thinking of the plan that Montel Williams has been endorsing?

There have been two "gentlemen" who evey question they answer, every question they post, has to do with the hatred and/or alienation of a group of people. I feel that if all you are doing is making people hate another group of people and it's not even a question because they don't want the answer, they souldn't be allowed on Yahoo Answers.

I believe all you can do is report them every time they are on here, hun.


i have a IBM lab top. the screen has lines in it and the mouse won't work. if i touch the screen and play around  it goes back to normal again. what is wrong with it. how much do u think it would cost to fix.

Sounds like something is loose inside. I had a loose connector for my plug in on my laptop and they told me at the shop that to replace the motherboard it would be $800 and to re-solder it would be $300. I just put duct tape around the plug to hold in in place instead~!\nDepending on the age of the laptop, it would probably be best just to get a new one.


My ex boyfriend and I broke up 5 months ago. I did the breaking up. Now he wants to hang out and have sex. I still really love him alot, and it feels like he still loves me. But I don't know if he is using me or really misses me. Does anyone have any insight.

It's been 5mos. and you must have forgotten why you broke up with him in the first place.  I think if you read your question over especially the part about him wanting to hang out and have SEX, you could really determine yourself whether he, after 5mos., really loves and misses you or ain't having that much luck elsewhere.  Sex will make the feelings you still have for him arise but then what after that?

Wanted to get the London Times to print the newspaper from the date when my Sister-in-law was born, but they don't offer those services.  I hear they do it in the US and it makes a great b-day present.  What can I get my sister-in-law, because she's always sending me stuff on my birthday, even when I'm in Canada or Pakistan.  She's in the UK, and I'm right now in Pakistan.  What do I sent?!  I'm out of ideas!  Need something thoughtful.

I say porn is always a nice gift, but since this is your sis in law I wouldn't try it. I think one of the most thoughtful gifts is to get her a gift certificate to her favorite restaurant, just call them up and have them send it to her address.


I gag and throw up everytime I give a guy a blowjob?\nI am female and it not like the guy has even come,I do it for a few seconds then I throw up all over him? HELP,this is ruining my sex life and I am only 19

I do it because often in those places many people are too sloppy to even wash their hands after using the facilities. Isn't that disgusting that they do that?

yes. i'm not a germaphobe with anything else, but public restrooms are used by the masses and better safe than sorry.


I am 40 years old but still feel like I'm 20, I am going bald and I hate it when young people are always calling me sir ! Does this annoy any middle aged people like me ?

So I got this band and we just finished our first cd, and I want to send the songs to all my familiars, but attaching them to an email is too friggin' time consuming. Is there a better way to get my songs to my friends?

Why not set up a home server? Just download the free software from http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/sswww.htm\nthen open the files to the web!


I'm a real rock concert tees collector. Especially those old school 3/4 sleeve style. back to 80's great moments and great bands, as well. Some of them are rare to find items. like iron maiden, judas priest, metallica, anthrax or even the monster of rock tour.

yes, go to Wolfgangs Vault for vintage rock stuff, pretty good site, but not cheap.

Before the flood, we weren't supposed to eat animals. After the flood, God gave us permission to eat them. Why?\n I'm looking for a serious Biblical answer, but I'm think it will come down to: Nothing tastes better than steak after a good rain.

Actually,God never gave us permission to eat meat. And we do not have control over animals , we force control over them. If we had not killed so many predator animals and they still lived everywhere around us and we were all stripped naked and dropped off without modern luxuries the Grizzly, Gator, snakes and more would control us !!


(ex. how many genes make the difference)

Its true that melanin controls the color of the skin, but I assume you are asking the entire genetic difference.  First, there is no definition in science for a black or white person, and even individuals would differ in what they consider dark enough to be black, or light enough to be white- But even assuming you had a definition, based on how dark a person is, there isnt any clear genetic difference.  In fact, people from Ethiopia and Somalia are more closely related to European caucasians then they are to west African tribes.  Extremely dark people from the Indian subcontinent are closely related to Europeans, and are genetically considered nearly identical-Native Australians are not very closely related (relatively speaking) to African blacks.  The skin color of a person is only one aspect of thousands of characteristics-it just happens to be one that we can easily see.  If you look at blood types, certain african groups are more closely related to Ethnic Slavs than the slavs are to other European groups (even though the slavs "look" like other Europeans)- this is only one example of many that have been found...what a person looks like appears to have very little to do with genetic relatedness.


What did they do to treat syphilis in the baby after delivery when mother was infected with Syphilis?

In the US: Incidence of primary and secondary syphilis was about 100,000 cases in 1940, prior to the introduction of antibiotics.\n\nT pallidum is sensitive to the penicillins and is easily treatable in the early stages.\nBoth of these statements came from:\n\nhttp://www.emedicine.com/EMERG/topic563.htm\n\nDepending on when the baby was born he/she may not have been treated (congenital syphilis) or had antibiotics.

thick to obese.they don't work out,so they don't expect you to,there is ALWAYS food around and they have almost always had to take time to educate themselves and develop a personality.most of the time they are just funner to be with and they usually will do more to please there partner than those so-called hot chick with the bad attitudes.I'll take a big girl with a sense of humor over a skinny girl that complains anytime.

I'm so glad there was no "whinning" going on during those evil Clinton years... Remember the cry of Rush Oxycontin Limbaugh... "America held hostage" or "the rule of law" or this ol gem... "what will we tell the children"?\nSo, let's put the shoe on the other foot... Hypothetically speaking, let’s say the Democrats (hopefully) win back the White House in 08’. And this administration decides to spend 400 billion on a national health care system instead of 400 billion to supposedly liberate people who consider us infidels. Now, lets say they give all the legal work involved in this new health care program in the form of “no-bid” contracts to a particular law company, and this company’s former CEO and major share holder is now the Vice President. And let’s say this law firm can not account for close to 9 billion of the taxpayer’s money. They post handsome profits in the process as well.\n\nI wonder if the Republicans would have a problem with this… would they whine?

The 'Whining Liberals' label is just another way the neocons innoculate their audience into not listening to issues deep enough to realize that the facts are on the side of the Democrats.  That, plus, "Liberal Media" and one-line counter-labeling keeps 33% voters in the dark, where they must want to be:\nNO CHILD LEFT BEHIND - takes resources away from needy schools\nCLEAR SKIES INITIATIVE- delays air pollution enforcement\nWAR ON TERROR - Osama bin Forgotten?

I want to open a call center in S.A. and I am looking to find Companies that are interseted in this. I've tryed to goolge it i've tryed ever search engine but I can not find anyone that can give me this info

My brother takes everything I say the wrong way and gets mad at me and I don't know how to stop it because I truly don't know what I do wrong most of the time. He seems to be mad at me at least once a month so I'm starting to not want to talk to him now. He's family so I can't really write him off. Any advice?

Carefully, He might be over-anazlying situations and responses way ahead of its arrival; in other words anticipating what you will say istead of what you do say.\nHe may even manuever around your responses should he find\nhimself looking sheepish. \n\nJust remind him that he's not on your enemy list and you\nshouldn't be on his enemy list either and when he starts jumping with words or hands remind him that you love him.\n\nYou state "once a month" can you remember if its at the same time or around the same situation when he gets angry?\nThe same subject such as "report card"? \n\nExample: When he has to make a car payment or has tests.\n We could then say maybe he has alot of anxiety about giving\n large sums of money to someone else or that tests might    \nmake him nervous.

Hi, To find out if you have an anti virus program and its name; right click on any file or folder and see if the option\n-- SCAN WITH....(name of antivirus program).....is available.\nIf it is there, then you have an antivirus program.\n\nIf you need to download one-- AVG is an excellent choice.\n\nAll the best


I like to buy a Convertible with Retractable Hardtop, except Pontiac G6, what other convertibles have Retractable Hardtop?

Lexus SC430, Mercedes SL class are probably the two most popular.  Next generation of Infiniti G35 is suppose to offer one.  Recommend the SC430 for a daily driver, well built super smooth car.  You can pick up a couple of year old one with low miles for low $30s

what do guys think about when they are thinking about females?  do they litterally think about having sex with a woman they see.. and what she looks like naked?  i know my bf always looks at females, so does he think about actually getting them naked and having sex with the woman?  the only time he sees a woman is at the store or something.

Remember this: No man is invulnerable. Because its in our nature, in our genes. Its only the love and affection that arises out of a relationship that keeps us bound with one woman/man.\n\nComing to your question. EVERY man will see other women, particularly the ones who are attractive or dress very "sexy". Very few will actually imagine that woman "nakid" or having sex with. \n\nYour BF might look at sexy ladies/girls and might admire their "assets". But Im sure he hasnt/wont do what u think he is doing. Ofcourse it depends on how deep is your relationship... \n\n.:Fishie:.


I think I am a sex addict but don't really know what that means.  I seem to end up in sexual relationships with way too many people.

obviously you might have an issue with your self esteem or depression, bad experiences as a child, and its causing you to play it out by having so many different sexual partners.  think to yourself are you just trying to feel more love, attractive, or, it could be that you are hooked on finding the right partner and cant live without sex.  it could be a lot of things.  get some help.

Been there.  Uhh, well the girl i like eventually just found out, she didn't act that weird though.  You could try asking him to something simple, like the movies.  Think about how important your friendship is and how important it is that you want to be with him.  Try asking some of your girl friends.

i got ink in my finger today, i think. so i told my biology teacher and he told me that he doesn't know what would happen. so he said if i can find out the answer to my question on the internet, he would give me extra credit in biology-which i really do need! but also, i want to know for myself. please answer my question, i kinda need to have it by tomorrow-march 22, 2006! thank you!

not too much, ink is water and pigment. the water will be harmless, so if you figure out what exactly the pigment in your ink is, you can look up its dangers, but normally ink pigment should be OK\nAfter all tatooing it getting pigment deposited into the dermis layer of your skin. And tatooed persons don't die early...so look up inks for tatooing as well.


I am 23, soon to be 24, years old. I'm very intelligent, and I know how to treat a Good man. This is the first I have ever been involved with a man of his statue. I need to stay 1 step ahead of the game. Keep him interested and coming back for more. I'm not just talking about sex. Can any of you give me any suggestions on sex, communication, or anything I need to brush up on?

I've been out with lots of men who were older then me... much older. They all seem to be interested in the same aspect of the younger woman... our vitality, our fun loving nature, and what innocence we still have.\n\nMy suggestion is "be yourself", because if you aren't some day you could wake up and relalize how much time you've wasted.\n\nAs for sex... the best part about sex, at least in my opinion, is the experimentation with each other. Communication goes right with it... talk about your sex life, see what you like together, see where you might like to experiment a bit more. Buy a karma sutra book if it comes to it, but don't try to cram it all into the first few months... Believe me, you want something interesting later on down the road to try.


How come people didn't try to stop the terrorist from taking over the planes for the only terrorist had plastic knives! i mean if they had guns or something like that then i can understand, but for god sake they had knives, and they were only 4....compared to alot of people on board so how come people didnt stop them caz i know i would.!

They threatened the people on the planes with boxcutters (not plastic knives), but they claimed they had a bomb, and we will never know if they actually did. \n\nWhat's more, the people on board probably thought there was a good chance they'd make it out alive. After all, in the 70s, tons of planes were hijacked and the crews and passangers rescued or returned safely. People used to hijack planes all the time to make political points, particularly Palestianians.\n\n9/11 also happened because law enforcement got too lax, encouraged by a lazy, fat American public. We got complacent, and they hit us bad. \n\nYou know you would? Listen up, buddy. When someome has a boxcutter to your throat, you're in a plane flying at 300 mph thousands of feet high, you're not so brave. Especially if you think that they might have a bomb, and you rush them, they'll detonate it and kill everyone. Also, you'd have to rush a small cockpit, and the pilots could be killed, which would make the plane crash.\n\nThink and gather facts before you talk, please.\n\nThe Wise One\n\nP.S. eva the diva, you are a sad, pathetic, horrifying person. You talk of human life like they are nothing more than objects. You should be ashamed of yourself. What has made you so cynical? Where is your proof of this "New World Order"?\n\nNutcase.\n\nP.P.S.

you can play DVDs if you have a DVD/CD-RW combo drive. I have not seen any DVD/CD-ROM combo drives, usually they can write CDs but not write DVDs but they can play DVDs.\n\nOr they are just saying "CD drive" when it really is a DVD-rom drive.

I've seen the definition of it but could someone explain in everyday words? I can't picture it in my mind (I'm not very good at abstract thinking...)

Let's talk about parallax first - this is where parsec came from. Suppose that you live in a house on a beach and you see a beautiful island and the see and you would like to know, how far the island is. If you look at tiny object on the island (e.g., a light house) from your bedroom, which is on one end of the house and then you look at the same object from your kitchen, which is on the other end of the house, you'll notice that the viewing angle has changed slightly. If you measure this change of viewing angle and if you know how far you kitchen is from your bedroom, you'll be able to figure out the distance to the island without getting there. This is how astronomers measure the distance to stars (island) by using Earth's rotation around the Sun. The difference is that instead of walking from kitchen to the bedroom they have to wait for six months and the distance is the diameter of the Earth orbit. Reciprocal of one half of this change in angle is the parsec.


I'am going for an interview tomorrow for a job with management in mind. I don't want to look or sound incompetent. I do have the ability but nothing comes out right when am sat there,(interviews are the only thing am bad at) so any good answers I could use in my interview would be of great help.  With kind regards - Miss Annie xx

The best way to prepare for an interview is to tell stories and share experiences.  Review and know the things that you have put on your resume or job application.  That is the starting point.  Now during your interview expand on the information that you have already provided to your potential new employer.  Provide examples of how you may have handled a problem with an co-worker, or resolved a business process within your department.  Find examples that started out negative but you turned into a positive.  Be specific during the interview on how you accomplished the positive.  Examples would be a negative customer(external/internal) that you helped turn into a positive.  A good thing would be to write all this down and then review your notes before going in for the interview.  Be as detailed as possible during the interview.  And one good question to ask before you wrap things up is, "What kind of individual are you looking for to fill this position?"  This question is hardly ever asked.  What it allows is for you to hit on any points that you may have missed while you were interviewing.  You make a mental checklist while they tell you who they are looking for.  This little bit of preparation will help you ace that interview.

At around the same time that the Sanger sequencing method was introduced, Maxam and Gilbert developed a method of DNA sequencing based on chemical modification of DNA followed by its subsequent cleavage [2]. This method was initially popular since purified DNA could be used directly, while the initial Sanger method required that each read start be cloned for production of single-stranded DNA. As the chain termination method has been developed and improved, Maxam-Gilbert sequencing has fallen out of favour due to its technical complexity, the need for use of hazardous chemicals, and difficulties with scale-up.


Is there any tennis player who started training tennis in his teenage years and still was succesful

I've known a huge number of players through the years, and I can't think of a pro who started that late.\nOn the other hand, if by successful you mean someone who plays college tennis and does well in open tournaments, then yes there are such players.\nI didn't begin to play until the summer before my junior year in high school, but I was still able to get a scholarship and play #1 at a Division I university, and subsequently win numerous local and even national tournaments. Naturally, I wonder what I might have done had I started earlier, and been given lessons, but you play the hand you're given to the best of your ability.\nYou have raised a good question, and most experts would believe that tennis players would have to start much earlier to become a pro. I'd like to take a top athlete at age 14 and see what he or she could do with intensive training and instruction. I think some could make it in the pro ranks even with such a late start, but they would have to be highly dedicated and have superb coaching.


i heard it's a knee sickness, but i'd like to know a liitle bit more.

Osteochondritis dissecans occur most commonly in the knees and elbows.  What happens is a tiny bit of the bone inside the joint, just under the cartilage (subchondral) dies off (necrosis).  This usually causes some of this dying bone or some of the cartilage over it to come loose inside the joint.  This free fragment, sometimes called a "joint mouse" can cause further inflammation or irritation in the joint if it gets stuck between moving parts of the joint.  \n\nIt occurs most commonly in boys from 10 to 20 years old who are athletically active.  However, it is occurring in more athletic girls as well.  Decreasing the inflammation and rest from athletics for 6 to 8 weeks helps to get rid of the pain.  If it happens in adults, there is usually more joint damage, so surgery to remove free fragments and to clean up the joint surfaces is sometimes needed.\n\nNatural treatment options would include joint support with glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate.  This will help to decrease inflammation and to build up the cartillage.  Also, proper mechanics for whatever athletic activity is needed to decrease stress on the joint.


I wish to know the distiction between mammals and rodents and also their types.

All animals that have mammary glands to produce and feed their young ones with MILK are mammals. So Rodents like rats,mice and bandicoots are all mammals.BUT all mammals are not rodents. Lions and Elephants ARE mammals but they are NOT rodents.All human beings are mammals.But are they rodents? The last example will clear any doubt in your mind.\nRodents have their own peculiarities, which set them apart from other mammals.\nThey have burrowing habits, the front teeth or the incisors are longer than the others, sharp and pointed. They continue to grow for long. Therefore. The animal must constantly ‘GNAW’ at something to keep them trim and sharp.\n Besides the examples quoted above; the others in the category of rodents are rabbits, hares, squirrels and otters. They all come under class- Mammalia and order-Rodentia.

I dont know how to get songs for my ipod i have iTunes but need to put songs on it i tryed bareshare so what should i do

Worst type of marketing is this which is made by an experienced marketer.\n\nIn other words, marketing is not only tools of advertizing. Customer communication is a big subject but is part of marketing how to use it and how use effective communication tools is not that easy it needs an experienced marketer.\n\nThe marketer will first audit the market and put marketing strategies to fulfill objectives then plan, upply tactics etc..\n\n So it is not only a matter of advertising, it is a matter of researches long complicated ones that at the end will lead to choosing the tool of communication. Advertizing is just a little drop from the sea of marketing.

It came with my eMachine and i have no clue why i might even possibly need it.

I had an eMachine laptop that came with Bigfix as well.  One of the first things I did was uninstall it.  One, I am quite capable of installing Windows updates, two, I am quite capable of managing my own security settings and three, it was just damned annoying.  You don't really need it... if you are comfortable handling your own security settings, updates and OS patches.

Im not really sure if limewire is legal, it says it is..but im not sure...

yes it is, it is perfectly safe, it just another version of bearshare which i used to have and that was free, but i wasnt sure if bearshare was free, so i asked someone that would know because they have worked in the government for many years, and they just had a case about it, and it was found legal so I think you're all set!

I have visited so many doctors over a period of 10 years and I have not been given any diagnosis.I have started to believe that I may have a cancer. What should I do?

If it was cancer, you would definitely know it by now. You probably have a less serious condition. Gall bladder disease is painful in the upper right part of your back. (I know... the gall bladder isn't even located there. But that's where most people feel the pain.) When you say it's your stomach, what exactly do you mean? Behind your breastbone? That's where your stomach is. Lower in your belly? That's where your intestines are, along with your liver and other organs. I'm surprised that nobody has given you a diagnosis -- even to tell you it's acid reflux or ulcers or an irritated colon. Do you get relief from taking anything such as antacids? Do certain foods make it worse? Does it happen only after you eat, or is the pain evident all day?? Are you constipated all the time? Do you have gas with it? Write down all the details... whenever you get the pain, write down the time, what you ate, what makes it go away, what the intensity is (on a scale of 1-10), etc. The more details you can provide your doctor, the better. Also, ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist. That's a doctor specializing in digestive tract problems. You also might consider that it's nerves. But see a specialist first.

Live example of improving customer service regarding IT in business

Here is a link to an article at Internet Retailer Magazine showcasing an example of improving customer service in a company:\n\n“WISMO” is more than just a funny acronym to women’s footwear brand Aerosoles. It’s its own cost center at Aerosoles’ call center, where “Where is my order” is the subject of about 11% of all calls. “And we handle hundreds of calls a day,” says vice president of direct marketing Robert Garris. “Thousands in peak seasons.”\n\nDo the math, and it’s clear that even a relatively small 11% can add up to a big headache. But Garris says he expects to reduce such calls by as much as 15% with customer service technology from Escalate Inc., which automates the online order process at the multi-channel retailer’s web site. Among functions, the software allows customers who’ve placed an order online at Aerosoles.com to track its shipment progress online without human intervention. \n\n\n\nhttp://www.internetretailer.com/internet/marketing-conference/83752-The-upward-path.html


Three boxes A,B,C each conains respectively 2 yellow and 3 red ball ,2 yellow and 1 red ,and 3 yellow and 4 red .A box is selected at random and a ball is randomly drawn from the box .what is the probability that \na- a ball is selected from box A if the balls is red.\nb- a ball is selected from box C if the ball is yellow?\nc- a red ball is selected if the ball is from box B?

Remember that AND implies multiplication of probabilities while OR implies addition. This can be derived from the fundamental law of counting.\nConsider question (a). In conditional probability, the probability that two independent events A and B occured is the product of the probability that A occured and the probability that B occured given A's occurrence. Consider this definition logically (Use Venn diagrams). In symbols P(A AND B) = P(A)*P(B|A).\nThe statement (a) is saying that you know you drew a red ball, but you want to know the probability that you drew it from box A. Thus, we want to know the conditional probability P(I draw a ball from box A | I draw a red ball) = P(I draw a ball from box A AND it is red) / P( I draw a red ball ) = [(1/3)*(3/5)] / [(1/3)*(3/5 + 1/3 + 4/7)] = (1/5) * (3*3*5*7)/(3*3*7 + 5*7 + 3*4*5) = 63/158.\nNote that this is not the same as the probability that you draw a red ball from box A, which is just (1/3)*(3/5), because the implicit condition of that statement is "if I draw a ball" whose probability is just 1.\nThe other questions are similar.

I suspect I have a dynamic IP and need to adjust something here so that the wifi net stays intact on IP change? \n\nHere's my specs: modem connected to windoze XP home desktop PC, XP media on wireless laptop, Lynksys 2.4 g wireless router, yahoo dsl modem (Siemens SpeedStream 4100). \n\nSo far I just stick the install CD in the desktop again and go through the process again, but it's getting old. ;)\n\nThanks a million in advance,\nEric

Ok. Here is what I think is happening. Your router is assigning dynamic IP's to your PC' within the network. That should not cause any kind of trouble. \n\nHowever, If you want to assign static IP addresses to the computers, then there should be a setting within the router's configuration where it says "Reserve IP...."\n\nYou will have to enter the MAC Addresses of the 2 PC's and then reserve IP's. \n\nI hope that helps.\n\nYour router, also has an IP address, but that IP address will be assigned by your internet service provider. The router IP is generally dynamic and is governed by the DHCP servers of the ISP. If you want static IP on the router, you will have to contact your ISP and tell them that you want a static IP assigned to your connection. They may charge you more for that.


I loved him and he cheated behind my back. I can't sleep, eat, think, or anything. All I can do is cry. Someone help

Hang in there. The best way for us to heal from our problems is to help other people heal from theirs. Do some volunteer work at a hospital.  I just went through this myself, I know how you are feeling. Geting your mind off yourself and focused on the needs of others not only speeds up the healing process, but helps us learn from the pain.

what position is saturn from the sun exp: 1,2,or3 etc


Small, intact blisters that don’t cause discomfort usually need no treatment. Nature’s best protection against infection is a blister’s own skin. \n\nLarger or painful blisters that are intact should be drained without removing the blister’s own skin or roof. First, clean the blister with rubbing alcohol or antibiotic soap and water. Then heat a straight pin or safety pin over a flame until the pin glows red, and allow it to cool before puncturing a small hole at the edge of the blister. Drain the fluid with gentle pressure, then apply an antibiotic ointment and cover with a bandage.\n\nBlisters with large tears should be "unroofed" carefully with fine scissors, and the base should be cleansed thoroughly with soap and water or an antibacterial cleanser. Apply antibiotic ointment and bandage.

I would just like to know what the proper definition is.  I have heard it used before, but I'm sure someone out there can give me an educated definition.  Thank you!

It's a black on black insult used to accuse a black person of selling out or otherwise betray his race. It's a reference to Uncle Tom's Cabin by Hariet Beecher Stowe. \n\nIn recent times, it has been used by blacks or whites to refer to those blacks who might be conservative or Republican.

My daughter is working on a school project asking why the brain has wrinkles?

Many people have given the correct answer--it's to increase the surface area--but that doesn't really say *why*.  Your brain is divided into white matter and gray matter.  The white matter makes up the interior.  It's white due to a fatty insulator created by astrocytes which wrap around the axons of neurons (the axons are a lot like wires that move information from one place to the next).\n\nThe exterior is called the cortex, and it's known as the gray matter.  It's a thin layer around the outside and the surface of the "wrinkles".  BTW, the term for the "wrinkles" are fissure for the really deep ones, and sulcus (plural sulci) for the smaller ones.  The gray matter appears gray because there aren't any of the insulators.  The insulation in the white matter makes nerve impulses travel quicker, but it gets in the way of the neural connections (and the way nerve cells work is by making connections to eachother and sending chemical messages between cells).  So in the gray matter, we find no insulation, but that's where all of the connections are made.\n\nThe more connections you make, the more complex your behavior can be.  The patterns formed by the connections are what dictate the complexity of cognition and perception.  Less intelligent animals have smaller and smoother brains.  In order to have a large cortical area, the brain folds up.\n\nHope that helps a bit.

If yes,How do they use social responsibilities to increse its profit?

of course! every corporation has to be responsible with everything that it does.  it should, as much as possible try to see to it that each of its stakeholders (people affected by its actions, from investors, employees, suppliers, customers and many others) are benefited with its actions. it should always try to consider the welfare of these stakeholders in making its decisions.  \n\nthis responsibility is intrinsic to every corporation... however, the big question is whether corporations are aware and working towards the fulfillment of such responsibility.\n\nwhen a corporation is fully aware of its social responsibilities and it is able to satisfy them, then probably, fulfilling the said responsibilities will surely increase its profits.\n\nfor example, if a corporation care for its employees, then its employees will be more willing and loyal to do their best in performing their tasks....\n\nif a corporation makes products that are proven to be beneficial to its customers, then it will be able to enlarge its market, thus increasing its profits.\n\nif a corporation has a good relationship with its suppliers then it will be able to get only the best raw materials at lower cost, thus increasing its profits...\n\nand so on....

I have a friend who had a gastric bypass surgery, a couple of years ago. She looked great for a while, but still felt like she was fat, even though she was at her ideal weight. She became anorexic and became very ill. She has been in therapy for quite a while, but I don't think she is out of the woods yet. She is very much underweight now, and it will take her a long time to get back to being healthy.

In a fireplace or outside?  Outside, gas usually get things moving quickly, although, if the wood is wet, gasoline doesn't do much.  When I have started bonfires outside with wet wood, I've made a big pile of wood and put one duraflame log on each side of the pile.  That helped to get things going and the duraflame logs burn long enough to really keep things going.\n\nIn a fire place, you really need to start with small kindling, like pine cones, small dry twigs, medium sized dry sticks, and then let that catch on.  Put large pieces of wood around it, but not big logs.  You have to start small and build up around that.\n\nOther things that work good to get a fire started, you can roll up newspaper, soak it in molten candle wax, then let it dry.  That works out as a good, solid way to get the fire going.  They also sell things in WalMart and places like that that are like Duraflame logs, only much smaller.  Its really just sawdust soaked with wax.  It gets a fire started pretty good too.


my bfd has been acting weard when he comes around me, for the past couple days he has been acting strange. it is starting to scare me. i dont know what to do.

I gained 15+ pounds while taking paroxetine over a 6 month period.  I have been off the medication for 2 weeks now and have not dropped weight.  I want my old body back!

I was on Paxil too and had the same problem. Unfortunately the weight didn't come off as fast as it went on. I'm not sure if weight gain was your reason for stopping the meds but if it was then there are other alternatives. If you talk to your doctor about your concern with the weight gain I'm sure he/she will come up with something for you. Paroxetine is notorious for weight gain.

My girlfriend was raped by an acquaintance of hers while on vacation with her friends.  Unfortunately, I was not there to protect her.  She is reluctant to report the incident and seems to deny the seriousness of what has happened.  How can I be supportive without being pushy?  Obviously, I would want to see this @#$%er behind bars, but I don't think it's my place to force anything. What would you expect from your boyfriend in a situation like this?  Also, how can I deal with my personal feelings of guilt for not being there to help?  I would prefer that those who answer this question either have firsthand experience or training regarding rape or mental health.

I had a friend that was raped, so believe me I know what you're going through.  I know the first thing you want to do is kill this guy, but you have to stay calm and keep yourself together.  Feeling guilty that you weren't there to protect her is natural, but you can't beat yourself up about it.  It's NOT your fault, at all.  You had no idea that she was going to get raped, so please don't feel like it's your fault.  That is the worst thing you could do in this situation.  Your girlfriend is probably reluctant to report the incident because she is terrified.  Being raped is one of the most terrible things that could ever happen to a person.  She is probably still in shock from the incident.  I believe that she is scared to report it because she actually knows the person who did it.  It isn't a stranger, it is an acquaintance.  I'm sure she knows how serious it is, but she might just be scared and embarassed.  Don't force her, just be there for her and comfort her.  Her feelings are very fragile right now, and she will make the decision that she feels best, whether it is reporting the incident or not.  I know you want to help, so support her and talk with her, don't push her to do anything drastic at this time.  I hope this helped even a little bit.\n-L

Bukhari 4:52:220 Allah's Apostle said "I have been made victorious with terror

Well, the translation of Arabic words doesn't communicate the way Arabic does. And, here, yes the meaning might be "terror" but it's not terrorism (or the meaning you are trying to allude). In Encarta dictionary "terror" has these meanings: \n1. intense fear \n2. terrorism \n3. something causing fear. \n\nAnd the situational plot of the hadith was clearly made to the enemies of Islam at that time who continuously worked against Islam, attacked Muhammad, terrorized Muslims & even tried to kill the prophet just because they couldn't accept the truth of Islam. But later, most of the enemies converted to Islam. Muhammad was illegally expelled from his homeland, but later he conquered Mecca. He didn't kill anybody to conquer his homeland. Even when all the hostile enemies were defeated, and Muhammad was asked what to do with those enemies, he just said "they are forgiven". \n\nTo win the war against the aggressive foes, it was necessary to cause them fear. They were scared because they were weak from inside. The hadith above mainly means that.\n\nPlease note that Hadiths are not only quoted in books. They are scrutinized by highly educated scholars according to sitauational plot, time, logic, stress & other subjects. If someone (who never knew arabic) just picks one hadith out of 10,000 & say that Islam is terrorism then won't it be erroneous? I hope you will say "yes".\n\nMay God help people to understand right from wrong.

and your love one(s) (family or significant other) smoked?Would you try to make them stop smoking?

Tell them how you feel about their smoking however pushing them to stop cold turkey is not the answer. Tell them what happens to smokers and go from there , besides is it really worth the relationship that you have with them?

this is the result of a pathology I need to know what it means

It means that you have melanocytes in the dermal layer of the skin.  Nevus means that it is a mole.  THIS IS NOT CANCER.\n\nBasically there are a few types of moles.  A compound nevus refers to a mole in both the epidermis and dermis. An intradermal nevus means that it does not extend up into the epidermis.\n\nMelanocytic means that the nevus is made up of melanocytes.  These are the cells that give moles color and give darker skinned persons their color.  Since it does not say "melanoma" it is not considered to be malignant.

ST JOHN'S WORT - a patient's guide \nNatalie Gauld - Pharmacy Educator \n\n\nUse: mild to moderate depression \n\nSt John's Wort is a herbal remedy, also known as hypericum. It has been used for centuries for depression and anxiety. It is commonly used in Germany and other parts of the world.\n\nThe flowers and leaves of the St John's Wort plant (Hypericum perforatum) are used to make the herbal remedies. These flowers and leaves contain many different compounds including hypericin, which is thought to be one of the compounds that makes St John's Wort helpful for depression and anxiety. These compounds are extracted from the plant matter using alcohol.\n\nSome of the products available are "standardised" for hypericin. This means that the amount of hypericin is measured and should be the same in every single tablet. Therefore, standardised products are more consistent than products that are not standardised. Because there are many different compounds in the plant, it is thought that other ingredients will have an effect on depression also, but because they are not "standardised" they may vary from tablet to tablet. Different brands will have different amounts of hypericin and other ingredients, so it pays to stay with one reputable brand rather than switching from one to another.\n\nSt John's Wort looks very promising as a treatment for mild to moderate depression. There have been comparisons of St John's Wort with other medicines for depression such as imipramine and amitriptyline (tricyclic antidepressants) in tests. These studies have been fairly positive for St John's Wort, indicating that St John's Wort helps with depression and does not have many side effects. Unfortunately the trials have been only for short periods of time (e.g. 4 or 8 weeks), so it is not certain how well St John's Wort will work or whether there will be more side effects over a longer period of use. These studies have usually been carried out with only small numbers of patients, which is also a disadvantage.\n\nSt John's Wort has been compared with older tricyclic antidepressants (e.g. imipramine and amitriptyline), and has generally shown fewer side effects than the tricyclic antidepressants. It would be useful to compare St John's Wort with newer antidepressants such as fluoxetine (Prozac) and paroxetine (Aropax) to see if St John's Wort works as well and if St John's Wort has as few or less side effects, as these medicines are used so commonly now.\n\nIt is not known how St John's Wort works. It is thought that St John's Wort may affect serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine uptake.\n\nCautions: \n\nDo not use if pregnant or breastfeeding without talking to your doctor first. \n\nIf you are on other medicines check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking St John's Wort. \n\nIf you have liver or kidney problems, or other serious medical conditions it is very important to check with your doctor before taking any herbal remedies. \n\nIf you think you are depressed it is important to talk to your doctor about how you are feeling. More severe and persisting depression may not be responsive to St John's Wort, and it is important to talk to your doctor to discuss if your feelings are due to depression. \n\nSide effects: \n\nThis remedy does not seem to have many problems with side effects, however possible side effects are listed below:\n\nAllergy. \n\nIncreased skin sensitivity to the sun is extremely rare. \n\nSt John's Wort generally does not seem to cause drowsiness and affect the ability to drive, however a very small percentage of people taking it may feel tired. \n\nIncreased sensitivity to touch, temperature and pain is a possibility. \n\nThere may be other side effects, so if you have any unexpected symptoms while taking this medicine, tell your doctor or pharmacist.\n\nInteractions: \n\nThere is a potential with any herbal product or medicine for

Why does hot water freeze quicker then cold water?  I have noticed that hot water in a ice try freezes faster then cold water, why is this?

Because the atoms in heated water are farther apart.  It actually makes the water less dense.  It then becomes easier to freeze less dense liquid.

I am a new lender. My first loan shows a purchase price of 298,000. 100% financing. Of course, mortgage insurance is required. The mortgage insurance is .85% of the purchase price. Should I get this client a loan for 298,000 + the cost of the mortgage insurance? If so, how much should I add (i.e one year, one month)?

Hi and congrats to becoming a new broker. \nTo show PMI(private mortgage insurance) on the the GFE it would probably under the 1002 section on the GFE. No you do not need to add in the mortgage Insurance. It will be calculated into the first payment along with the PITI. The PMI should be around $210. \n\n:-)


Today I've purchased an HP OfficeJet 4215 all-in-one at Staples.  The printer [as well as it's other functions] work great.  However, in my tray Windows is displaying the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon in the system tray.  I would like to know how I can make windows not even offer me to "Safely Remove" this particular hardware [printer].  The printer is connected via USB.

to the best of my knowledge 9 times out of 10 if any device is connected via usb then there will always be the option to safely remove hardware, but there is a way to make that icon disapear, if you right click on your task bar and select "properties" then when the new window appears click "customize" on the "taskbar" tab and then a list will appear. Scroll through the list until u find the icon for safely remove hardware and choose the option always hide (please note doing this will always hide this icon no matter what hardware u connect to your computer)\n\nI hope this helps!

That's easy many people in society seem to act like animals and appear to have adopted "a survival of the fittest" attitude. Such as not caring about others, not giving up seats to the elderly on the train, pushing past people on escalators, no please, thank-yous anymore.\nSurvival of the fittest is fine if you are a gorilla living in the middle of the jungle, but surely humans have evolved past this.


The current military retirement system is such:\n-Be in the military for 20 years and you can retire. You get 50% of the pay you earned while you were still in the military. So if you join when your 18 years old you can retire when you are 38, plenty young to get another job. If you are enlisted you should be getting a retirement check, on average, $of 1,700. That’s plenty of money to retire on.\nDOD wants to change all that. They want to make it so you don’t get a retirement check until you turn 60 years old! So if you retire at 38 that’s 22 years with no income from the military.\n-More detailed description if current retirement system: http://usmilitary.about.com/cs/gene...\n-I joined for the education and retirement benefits. If I knew that I would not be able to collect retirement till I was 60, I would not have joined. Will this suggested change discourage people from joining? Is this change a bad idea?

It will change the amount of pencil pushers who want to be in the military. But for those of us who joined to fight a war, it makes no diff

what r d enzymes needed for the fermentation of alcohol(ethanol).please write the chemical equation

The step from pyruvate (CH3COO-) to Acetalaldehyde (CH2CHO) and CO2 is done by the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase.  The step from Acetalaldehyde to ethanol (CH3CH2OH) is Alcohol dehydrogenase.  I do not have the chemical structures for the enzymes, because they would be way complicated, but I think what you are looking for is.\n\nC6H12O6 + 2ADP + 2 Pi = 2 CH3CH2OH + 2 CO2 + 2ATP + 2H20

subject. Suppose we randomly and independently selected 38 students from the population.Suppose we observed fewer than 5 in our sample that consider statistics to be an exciting subject. Make an inference about the belief that 79% of the students consider statistics to be an exciting subject.

Wouldn't the probability than 5 of the 38 thought it was exciting be\n\n38C5(.79^5)(.21^33) = 6.63x10^-18 : basically impossible?  Even if you added in the probabilities of 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0, it's still tiny.\n\nSo I would infer that either the 79% is wrong or the sample was not independently chosen.

I had a Lap done for my Endometeriosis and I wish I had Laparaotomy. The latter is open and they are able to find more when they do that. A good surgeon can do surgery and cause very few adhesions(scarring from surgery). And yes there will be scarring inside and out. But like I said a good suregeon will try to minimize scarring.

I am in love with a much younger person! He is of legal age...Do you think I should let him know how I actually feel for him or just continue to be friends with him? It is not often that I get to see him, but the time is well spent when we are together!

you can tell him about your feelings and also clarify that if he does not have such feelings for you, you people can still be good friends.\nAtleast you will feel good that you told him about your feeling.\nCheers !!!!

Being British and therefore absolutely clueless as to most American laws, I was curious when I came across an article saying a foundation called Mothers Against Hard Rock wants to outlaw new punk rock, metal/Rock, hardcore, etc. bands in the US.  If they succeeded, wouldn't that violate the amendment on freedom of speech?

Haven't heard of them.  Anyway, free speech is a two-way street - they are entitled to voice their opinion.  Just because they're calling for law, doesn't mean it will happen.  They very likely know such a law won't pass, and they're doing it for publicity, press, hype, airtime, and public discussion (just like this!) for their point of view.

thrust faulting, narmal faulting, folding and faulting, vocanism, or compression

As I recall, Nevada has no special or extra ordinary geological heapening. \n\nIf it has any please do not go to my reply. \nYou need to read the relevant text books or special papers/articles on the subject.\n\nI consider its study will go like a general study of mountain formation and vally formation.\n\nNevada basin and mountain range is likely to be like others.\nIn the first step volcanic eruption forms the igneious rock.

Most were released.  The major criminals, like Goering were executed (poor example, he committed suicide just before his execution).  Guys like Eickman were captured later and executed.  Guys like Speer served long prison terms. The majority of Waffen SS were released, except for some of the generals....anyway, the long and short of it, the Nuremburg Tribunal tried the top Nazis and executed at least half of them, giving the remainder prison terms.. . Others were tried in abstencia and captured or remained free.  As a side note, not all the German prisoners of war were in the Nazis party, in case you were asking about these prisoners.


I need to know this composition thing (fog) and my textbook doesn't explain it very well.  i was wondering if someone could explain it with more detail.

Here's what you have to do.  Each function has its own rule: f(x) and g(x).  The composition fog (read f of g of x) means you have to do g(x) FIRST, then take the ANSWER you get and find f of that answer.  It kind of works backward.  Here are a couple examples:\n\nIf f(x) = 3x and g(x) = x-5, find fog(4)\n\nDo g(4) which is 4-5 or -1.\nThen do f(-1) which is 3x-1 or -3.\nSo fog(4)=-3.\n\nNow try gof(4).\n\nNow you have to do f(4) first: 3x4 = 12\nThe do g(12) = 12-5 = 7\n\nSo gof(4) = 7.  So you can see the order makes a difference most of the time.\n\nIf a variable or expression is there instead of a number, do the same thing, just plug in the variable or expression.  Example:\n\nIf f(x) = x^2  [x squared]  and g(x) = x-5, find fog(x+2)\n\nDo g(x+2) which means replace the x with x+2: G(x+2)=(x+2) - 5, or x-3\n\nThen replace the x in f(x) with (x-3), the answer to the first part\n\nf(x-3) = (x-3)^2 = (x-3)(x-3)= x^2 - 6x + 9\n\nThe other way around, gof(x+2)\nNow do f first: f(x+2) = (x+2)^2 or (x+2)(x+2)=x^2 + 4x + 4\n\nThen do g(x^2 + 4x + 4)= (x^2 + 4x + 4) - 5, or x^2 + 4x - 1\n\nThat's how it works, hope that helps.\n\nPS Some books write f(g(x)) instead of fog(x).


he's become distant. never spends time with us (me & our kids). makes calls and walks away so i wont hear. girls call his phone but he says they are just friends. but they both lied about how they met.We've been together for 10 yrs and have kids what do i do? not to mention he has hit me before and is always verbally abusive and yes i do still love him! Should i leave him or should I stay?

First of all he is lying to you so that is a red flag. The phone calls from other women, him talking on the phone and walking away is enough of a hint that something isn't right. You have a lot of red flags in front of you and the fact that he is physcally and verbally abusive doesn't help either. I know you love him but you have to think of yourself and your kids wellfare. You should leave before you or your kids get hurt. Try to get some professional help too.

Yes, even a cloned being has a heart, blood, nerves, brain, feelings, emotions, capabilities, etc. He should have the right to live no matter how he was brought into being.


all men think about is having sex with girls

I have enough stuff going on in my head to know the difference between "their" and "there".  Enough with the pointless misandry.


I've also been inhaling sec-han-smoke too for the past 7 months. Just how much did I injure myself if I inhale for about 30mins (10 min interval) over one week? Should I seek medical attention now before it's too late?

Yes, I am a daughter of two smokers and a Respiratory Therapist. It decreases lung volumes, making you more short of breath, can cause asthma attacks, make you more suseptable to catching respiratory infections, and so on...its just as bad as for you if not worse than the person smoking


I watch the ABC soaps.  I have watched General Hospital since I was 9 years old and I am in my thirties now.  My favorite characters on each soap are Ryan AMC, Nash and Tess on OLTL and Carly and Luke on General Hospital.  Some people smoke or drink, my guilty pleasure is watching the soaps.  I Tivo them and watch commercial free later.


We just bought a house in Nov. last year with an intention to expand it and move in. Before expansion, we did lots of improvement. Now we have buyers for it and we could gain a handsome profit. Though lease-to-own option will lower our capital gain tax rate when we sell this coming Nov., we prefer to have it sold right now instead of waiting for another half year. \n\nAny suggestions on how not paying tax on the gain? Can we create a Family liability partnership (FLP) or LLC and transfer the title from under our own names to the FLP or any other corporation type before selling it? Any creative thought would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Have you checked to see how much tax you'll actually have to pay? It may not be as much as you think.


Tavist-D was the worst (before it was OTC), but ibuprofin, amoxcycillin, eurythromyacin, hydrocodine ... after the first dose, I'm lucky to get more than two hours of sleep a day until I'm finished. The only exceptions are penicillin (which makes me dizzy) and sudafed, which makes me groggy. Am I just an anomaly, or what?\n\nP.S. Sorry if there are some misplellings in the above. I'm on Sudafed. :)

Recent activity in the pharmaceutical industry has changed the makeup of many of these drugs. Most of them used to contain pseudoephedrine which is used in the manufacture of methamphetamine or as an energy supplement. No wonder it keeps you up.\n\nMost of these drugs have had the pseudoephedrine removed in an attempt to stem the creation of dangerous recreational drugs. That's good news for you, who seem to be exceptionally sensitive to it.\n\nIf ibuprofen is keeping you up at night it is possibly because sometimes ibuprofen tablets contain caffeine. As far as I know, advil does not contain this additive, so it might be a good choice for you.\n\nAlso, NyQuil no longer contains pseudoephedrine and will probably put you right to sleep. It might leave you groggy the next day, though. It also contains alcohol.\n\nYou might try taking any of these medications with a side of valerian root tea. It honestly smells like dirty socks, but I've had luck with it. \n\nYou're probably just sensitive to one or more ingredients, so stick to the stuff that isn't multi-symptom and only contains one drug. Or turn to NyQuil, but again, not the multi-symptom version, as that still contains pseudoephedrine.\n\nGood luck. See, I'm not such a bad guy.


Not the fox jumping over the dog, I mean that one letter can not be put in twice.\nSo there would be a total of 26 letters in one sentence.

No, because it has only like 5 vowels. Which means the sentence has to have no more than five words. To make 26 letters with five words means they have to be long words. Long words usually have more than one vowel.


Yes, and he is still doing it all over us Americans all the while with his silver spoon in his mouth!


The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health and is being presented Friday at an American Heart Association conference in Phoenix showing the merits of weight training in women to reduce adominal fat(Web site article below). My question is does this also apply to men? I am overweight and walking a good amount(1 hour 5 days per week). Do I integrate weight training for 2 or 3 of these hours?\n\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060304/ap_on_he_me/fitness_weightlifting_women

It is easier for men to lose the fat on their stomachs then woman. try to incorporate jogging into the walking. Defiantly do weight training and start doing Ab exercises they will help tremendously. But running and jogging will help burn up those calories. And if you have a bad diet start changing that to you will then have less calories to burn and then the exercise you do will help focus on the stored fat on your body.


I'm 57 days from graduation but at this point I just don't know that I can practice social work.  It's absolutely exhausting emotionally, physically, mentally...and I'm only working as an intern with 5 cases and I'm already tired!  What am I going to do?

I WAS IN THE SAME PLACE! But instead of giving up I finished and did a master's where I'd never have to do casework and deal with people's problems. Now I'm a well-paid administrator and develop programs. I have no cases! It just took a year and a half more of school, I got to stay in social work, put have none of the downsides.
