Friends with the cruel impatient B!TCH !

sadly your friend is the victom of a good christian upbringing! jesus brought the word of love and pease. man, invented a religion! in this religion a bunch of wackoos got together and dreamed up a lot of sick ideas and made them law. so for 2000 years people fearing eternal damnation have followed these sick laws. now that people have out grown the need for self punishment, a lot of these sick ideas are now criminal offences. for example, your freind was referring to the old addage, "spare the rod, spoil the child" this means you can beat the hell out of your children and feel good about it because," GOD demands it!"  now days, IT'S CALLED CHILD ABUSE!!  a hopfully  the bitch will get turned in and have to sit her ass in jail or at least have her kid taken away from her! don't you just love that old time religion?


dont diss me for spelling when you dont use upercase letters when your suppose to and peroids!!! i spelled bass guitar base guitar so what i still got the point across!

I love The Cure! Your avatar caught my eye, not your comment. \n\nSounds like someone was being a weenie. I notice a lot of people don't ever say anything useful on this site, they just run around slamming other people for spelling/grammar/punctuation mistakes. Just ignore them, please.


I have been married for 7 years, and I finally got my wife to try some things sexually.  We had anal for the first time just a month ago.  I loved it and she was open to it.  But I think that this is going to cause problems because now I want to try other things.  I want to ask her but I don't want to make her mad.  I do love her and I don't want to leave her for another, but I just want to experiment.

Just tell her how you feel. Tell her that you are glad that she is willing to experiment with you and you are happy that she has been willing to try new things. Then tell her how much you love what she does to you and slowly bring in to the conversation what you want to try out. Good luck! Have fun!


I think if he had a different face he could be totally hot. Something about his face I just don't like. \n\nUnfortunately, that's kind of a big thing! So no, I don't think he's hot.


I'm sick of bad real-estate people ... I need a good one, and was wondering if anyone had good experience with this group.

They buy houses at a DEEP discount so you have to consider how low you are willing to go with the price of your home if you are looking to sell.  If you are buying one of their properties, they usually do a good job of refurbishing homes so you can pick up a house with nice upgrades at a good value.  \n\nIt is a franchise so the people who run each individual branch may vary.  I have a friend who does it, and I have seen the homes they work on. They do a nice job.\n\nBack to my first point though, if you are selling you are probably better off with a Realtor, shop around your area and find someone who you can work with.


ok, if you go back and read my last question relating to my period and get the ndetails then you can probably answer this better. \nanyway, that was in march, didn't have a period since then. well,  i woke up this morning and had some dark brown spotting on my underwear and thought i was going to start. i was out of tampons so i put a pad on and went to work. 5 holurs later i went to the restroom and there was not a drop of anything . when i wiped there was a dark smear like dark blood. i have been home for 3 hours now and there is still no sign except dark when i wipe. and it's just a smudge. i have taken 2 peg test and they both came up neg(no surprise). do i count this as a period? do i talk to the doc now or wait a couple of days to see whast happens? what could be going on? i'm 22 so this ive been having periods since i was 11. please help. i don't have insurance and i'm wotried- should i be? ovarion cancer runs in the family and mom just got diagnosed with cervical cancer.

yes. i think that you need to go see  a doctor. As for insurance, talk to planned parenthood and they should be able to refer you to someone who will either check you out for free or resonably. I wish you the best of luck


how can paper burn without suffering damage

rub the paper on your arm until it burns you. the paper will be undamaged.\n\nthere is also an old trick where you stretch a dollar across your hand, and someone tries to burn a hole in the dollar. It will burn your hand, but not the dollar because moisture from your hand is drawn to the paper.


I've tried a lot of stuff and most of it is either a 21st century chain letter or a thinly-veiled fraud.  I've spent far, far more money "getting in" to these things than I've ever gotten out of them even when I continued to "work the system."\n\nIt is such a shame that the old and simplistic ad is now disallowed, "Send me a dollar", that way we don't get over this business: "Want to work in your jammies?  Email me, send me some money for me to tell you to place innocuous little ads that say, 'want to workin in your jammies? send me some money so I can tell you to make these little ads....\n\nIf I just clicked on "report abuse" it would be good, but spilling the beans on these chain things might be better, maybe.


i've been in front of the computer most of the time and my eyes seem to be very tired, plus my back is aching terribly.  hope you could give me a wise advise on the matter.

Hi there,\n\nThe viewing distance from the screen to the eyes should be seventeen to twenty-six inches. \n\nSome eye relaxation exercises would also help.\n\n:)


Is it the total ground distance covered, or the direct distance from the batter (ie if it lands high in the stands, is it the hypotenuse between the ground and the height). Also, how exactly are they measured? Are they estimated, and who estimates the distances (MLB?).

The distance from the home plate to the potential landing spot of the ball if there were no obstructions.


for example, one us (local) time one china time.

Check out Yahoo widgets, I think there is one there that has a clock like that.


How cool would it be to have no disputes over religion?\n\nNo hurt feelings?\n\nNo lives taken?\n\nJust peace and brotherhood (and sisterhood)?

Like communism, it sounds great IN THEORY. However, there is the small detail of how could anyone convince people that the things that they've held in such high regard their entire lives to be false. And keep in mind these aren't just theories about what COULD be to them, they are FACTS. Like gravity or mathematics, for some people belief in some higher being is just as constant and valid. But if you can think of a way for it to happen, I'm right with ya.


How long were you separated ?  How did you get reaquainted ?

Yes.  None of your business.  None of your business.


I have a blog  http://theroadaheadnow.blogspot.com/ and I am stuck with the boring templates given by blogger.com . Since I love warcraft, I want to use that games template for my blog. I tried blogskins.com but it is very poor there. Please help!

Warcraft publisher Blizzard has a fansite kit that you can download that might help you create a template or a new look for your blog.\n\nIt's almost a 21 MB download (zip file), but it has a ton of graphics to use (which you could photoshop to your liking) and  a simple site template.\n\nYou can find the fan kit here:\n\nhttp://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/other-downloads.html\n\nHope this helps!


I'm looking for lyrics for Weird Al Yankovich

When you get this, you'll thank me, have used them for 2 years, and my friends keeps thinking i'm a song freak :) :p\n\nThere is no song they do not have and they are current, accurate and up to date.\n\nhttp://lyrics.astraweb.com\n\n\nCiao!


There are 2 girls one at my school and one in my neighborhood and they dont like me. The thing is I have never talked to them and their shit is getting on my nerves. Should I fight them so theyll shut up or what???

dont start the fight insult the hell out of them then when they throw the first punch make sure you have friends to back you up any way when they throw the first punch you go into self defence mode and beat the hell out of them but when you do use the palm of your hand elbow or knee never your fist it will hurt you more than them and i stress that i just got into 2 fights in the last year and the first one i broke a knuckle but the second i used the palms elbow and knee and he wasnt able to get up afterwards try practicing on a door or somthing you will see a difference in strength too im telling you this because i hate them dam preps that think they are tough shit


This is a new type of home loan.  HOAP for short.  If you have one, are you glad you have it instead of a traditional mortgage?

You can accelearate it yourself by making an extra payment every year.


i have already let her know how i feel and she has told me she likes me but she kinda has a rough life and i dont think she knows what she wants. is writing and mailing her a letter corny or a turn off.

Oh yeah, write her a letter Shakespeare. Also make a photo montage of you and her along with an original poem and a hand knitted macrame pot holder.\n\nLesson #1. Never put it in writing. HR will love to fire you for it when it all goes south.\n\nLesson #2. Be cool. Chicks dig guys who are masculine and appear to have it together, dont blow it by acting like a wimp. If she tells you it wont work out, say, "that's cool, let me know if you change your mind, I'll be around." then walk away and do not look back.\n\nLesson #3. If you talk to her again, keep your inner child and feelings to yourself. One woman in the relationship is all you need. Get in and get out. Fast.


I am attracted to a Women who I know is older than me. I think she is around 26, as far as i know, she is finished college and already has a career, and apt. etc..  \n\nnow, i'm 21 and in college.  \n\nshould i go for it?

AGE REALLY DOES NOT MATTER!  ALL THAT MATTERS IS IF YOU RESPECT HER AND SHE RESPECTS YOU, THAT YOU CARE ABOUT HER, AND THAT LOVE CARRIES ALL RELATIONSHIPS!  IF SHE FEELS THE SAME WAY, JUST MINGLE YOUR WAY IN!  IF IT WORKS OUT, THEN EVERYTHING WILL FALL RIGHT INTO PLACE!  GOOD LUCK!


it keeps saying code 20 what ever that means.

YOUR PRINTER SHOULD HAVE COME WITH A MANUEL. FIND THE SECTION LABELED TROUBLESHOOTING OR PROBLEMS WITH PRINTER.\nTHERE SHOULD BE A SECTION IN THERE FOR CODE 20.\nIF NOT, CALL THE MANUFACTURER.  GOOD LUCK.


who cares.  if he doesn't like you for who you are, forget him!!! it doesnt matter how small your hooters are, its okay.  it just means he's a pervert.\ngood luck!


please tell me, if not I'll scan my own witch I payed for I just want scans so I can make a music video and scanning your own takes too long.

I asked a math question to my uncle who was a math teacher and he couldn't understand the idea of an unfixed varible\n\nthe question was if x were assined a small value and in each cycle x=x^.99 how many cycles would it take to equal .999

To me it means an unfixed variable can be a wide range of numbers, and to solve for it, you are looking for the most optimal value.\n\nX=X+1, to me means, the value of X will be changed each cycle by adding 1 to it.  That will change the solution to the equation to which X is a part.\n\nYour math teacher uncle probably doesn't have experience with cycles, and saw X=X+1 as an illogical equation.


I've had problems with my IT-bands for the last couple of years and haven't been able to run. I do a million different exercises for them and ice and take time off from running but they won't get better. Any suggestions?! Please help.

Go to your doctor and have them take a look at it, two years is a long time for a nagging injury to be around.  you definitely need to have someone check it out, and maybe end up going to physical therapy to strengthen your core.


tried three got one to do it, not married but have a beautiful son together

Now he's cheated on you, so if you marry him he will still cheat again and again. Next thing you know you have a woman\ncalling your house saying your husband got her pregnant. Or\nladies caling hanging up in your face because he didn't answer the phone. Is this what you want to put up with? \nDisrespect in a marriage? No you don't. You need to think twice before you marry him.


The idea is to gather the reasearch myself, rather than having to hire a marketing research company or spending lots of money to access industry information.\nI'm looking for sources to turn to when one wants to quickly learn about an industry. I understand that industries may vary dramatically from one another, but there must be some simple universal steps to take when wanting to learn about a particular one. For example, seeking out associations and organizations within an industry could be a valuable first step.

Some sources of information:\n\n1. Industry association - they often have papers or studies about the industry\n2. Bureau of Census - you can check the retail surveys they have for information on the sales generated by the industry\n3. Books on the topic - check with your library for books on the specific industry you are interested in\n4. Websites such as Bizstats.com and other free industry information\n5. Trade magazines - check freebizmag.com, amazon.com or tradepub.com for listings of magazines in particular industries\n6. Attend trade shows - go to tsnn.com for listings of trade shows in that industry and if possible, attend so you can meet with industry players, manufacturers and suppliers. Often trade shows have seminars that talk of industry trends, among others\n7. Buy market research reports - expensive with many selling upwards of $650 but they are often comprehensive


I would like to try selling some sort of fast moving electronic on e-bay but I dont know where to buy high volume of something to get a better price.  Do manufacturers such as Canon or Apple sell to this small level or would I need to find an associated distributor.

You gotta find businesses that are liquidating their inventory. Say you go to Circuit City and talk to the manager and ask him if they liquidate and tell him you would like to be on the list of bidders. Then when they liquidate you will make a bid on for example, 45 Sony Cameras, if you have the highest bid, then you take your cameras and sell them on ebay individually for a profit.


i really wanna do tis i'm jus not sure if i wanna be on bottom or top. i really do wanna try top but i might know wat i'm doin

Your first time should probably be on the bottom if you still have your hymen. After that, be on top, it allows you to control the action and frees his (or her) hands up to roam around your body.


1. this is clearly a continuing, without end, brutalizing war of aggression, dehumanizing all participants. in the end, a total waste of people, energy, time and vital material.\n2. an oil pipe line through afhganistan is of no particular value to the canadian people, would it not make ever so much more economic sense to secure our own resourses, or is this a trade off game we play with our insatiable southern neighbours, in hopes that they will not take all canada's oil and water, once it comes home to them what all this bush and company madness is all about.\n3. peak oil is apon us, global polution and warming is a reality. what are we doing using up oil as quickly as we can\nto do little more than create massive polution as quickly as we can,  shattering lives and social infrastructures as we go?\n...pure madness.  \nbring the children home, learn them to be responsible human beings by having them do things of real consequence and value. what are we doing in afganistan?

We'll never know the real story right now because:\n\n1) Its Afghanistan and its a very very complicated place.\n2) In war, truth is always hard to find.  (in part because of the chaos of war but also on purpose because controlling information is an important part of military tactics)\n3) Even if our decision makers knew the real truth of what is going on, which is doubtful, they still wouldn't tell us.\n4) There are more than one or two story-lines happening at the same time.\n\nSo if you want a long factual based answer, you're not going to get one no matter who responds to your question.\n\nIf you want opinions, there's lots to go around.\n\nIf you want the truth, go there yourself and keep searching but even there it will be hard to find.\n\nIf you want my opinion, its simply because the Taliban were very very bad people and some of us nice Canadians are willing to risk our necks to help people get out from under their boot prints.


ive tried everything from exercise therapy positive thinking but nothing makes me feel good at all there have been loads of times when i have been on the verge of suiside i really dont want to be lke this and im wondering if there is anything else i could try i dont want to do anything stupid and i dont want to hurt my family

There is a lot of mood disorders and causes of depression that could be the source of your problem.  Many of these are caused by brain chemical or harmone imbalance. The only way to correct those imbalances is with medication. Therapy, diet and exercise can be helpful but are not enough alone. You need professional help to diagnose, treat and maintain your bodies chemical communication systems.\n\nI suggest you see your family doctor to start with. Your problem may be something he/she can help you with. If not, he/she will know what to do and where you can get the help you need and deserve.\n\nPlease do not do anything rash. When you feel like you may harm yourself make sure you have someone with you at all times. Call a hospital emergency room or 911 (if you are in the US).\n\nI don't know what more I can tell you. Just please get yourself checked out.\n\nSincerely,\nTerry


about patrick swayze, i just stopped talking about that piece of fruit, now, i don't know how to act, patrick swayze, doowop doowop, patrick swayze, doowop doowop, i know, i'm no artist at singing, but it's my little omage to sir patrick swayze.

When i highlight a word and press backspace nothing happens, and it doesnt get deleted. Also when i highlight a word or phrase and try to replace it with another word the new word appears but the old highlighted part just stays there and doesnt get replaced. I dont know if this makes sense of not, but anyone know whats wrong? do i need to press some button to fix this?? \n\nALSO the backspace does work when i just go backwards, but when i highlight words it doesnt delete them when i press it. ONLY does this on Microsoft Word


what did he do to build up global warning/war

He expoited the terrorism threat to all.


There is no official period for starting & ending the season but usually it begins from June-July and ends in February-March the next year.


Our family lives 1,300 miles away.We're going to visit in a month and we have decided to get married while were there.I'm pregnant and we were planning on getting married soon and I would rather do it when my family could be there so this is like my only chance.Its just going to be a small wedding outside but other than that I have no clue as to what I need and what I need to do.We dont have much money to work with so its making things harder on me.Ive asked friends and family the same questions and no one can seem to give me any answers.  So my questions are...where do I start and what do I need to get???

Well, I'm not married myself but I have already planned two weddings for friends of mine.  First you need a minister or justice of the peace and arrange a time to be married.  You need a spot, someone's back yard, a park, the beach anywhere the scenery is nice and doesn't come with a rental fee.  Of course you need a dress and the accessories and your groom needs something to wear as well.  You need two attendants to witness your marriage and sign your marriage certificate--and of course you need a marriage certificate.  You need to apply for this in the town or city you are getting married in, and you need your birth certificate when doing this.  Now comes the memories part.  I would believe you would want pictures of your big day.  Have a friend who owns a digital camera and a steady hand to do this.  Have he or she research on the internet about different poses and styles.  When you wedding day is over and you go back to the normal way of life you can just take you digital memory card to your local department store (WalMart) and have pictures printed, enlarged, and thank you cards done!!  Real Cheap!!  Also, you may ask a family member with a video camera (perferably digital) to do a video for you and if you are knowledgeable with computer software, you can incorporate childhood pictures and make a very professional video-CHEAP!!  As for a reception, you can ask family members to bring a dish and serve a buffet style meal.  The dance is totally optional, but you would run into a d.j. fee and a rental hall fee and so on.\n\nThis in a nut shell is a wedding!  Good Luck!!


Is it true that honey in tea, or just eating it will make your throat uhh either feel better be get better? \n\nAnd Does anyone know any remedies to get your voice back?\nI just pretty much got a cold and i have to go to prom on tuesaday.. :( I'm already going to be drinking water and sleeping.. but i still want to kniw some other ways.. Thanks!

Any thing hot will clear your throat, honey just "oils" your throat. May I also advice you to gargle in warm salty water. Salt cleanses and will help get get your voice back ;)


I just bought a home that needed some serious remodeling before I move the family in. Come tax time, what can be deducted, other than the interest on the loan?

The other two people had hit the nail on the head in response to your question, however, there is SOME remodeling expenses that can be claimed, however, there are some limitations; which consist of the fact that they have to be related to a disability; for example, if you were to add a wheelchair ramp or something of the sort, you may claim that.  Also, if you had sustained damage to a house and/or garage or something of the like due to a natural disaster such as a hurricane or tornado, you may claim those expenses to repair those as well.  Good luck!!


if so, which & why do you like it???? how long have you been playing this sport for???? how did you get started???? do you ever think about becoming a pro????

Yeah, I play beach volleyball. It's sweet coz I can do what I love and I can get a sweet tan. I've been playing since I was about 13 when my dad dumped some sand into our old garden. I'm not good enough to turn pro, but I can dream.


Myself, I think I would probably bring back Martin Luther King, Jr. or either Richard Pryor. Both would make the world a better place. Everybody needs a laugh nowadays and I think we all need to be conscious of brotherly love as human beings with so much going on in the world today.


So I would think that the average of4,2,-3,6,5,-3,-2,0,-1,-4,3 would be .636363 but some so called math genious says it is 1.18 no ClUE! I came up with an answer of 1.18 by adding only the negative numbers and dividing by the whole total of numbers! but WHY! and is that the way it is supposed to be done.

add them up like this \n4+2+(-3)+6+5+(-3)+(-2)+0+(-1)+(-4)+3\ndivide the result by 11 because that is how many numbers there are in your list.  That will be your answer!


I want to learn to operate heavy equipment. I have some experience but want more, I need a school close to Sonora, CA. (Sacramento, Modesto,etc)

Your best resource for this information would be to find a large excavation Co. in your area and speak to the owner, or person in charge of personnel, and tell them that you are serious about get trained to work in that field, and you need their advise.\nI search the web for about an hour and found everything that I didn't want to know. Good Luck.


There are many pros and cons for both sides, I just was curious what you guys thought.

Duh, what do you think Los Angeles is?\n\nThere would be no pros for the USA.


All four Black Boxes were supposedly destroyed and rendered unusable on 911 in spite of the fact that they are designed specifically for plane crashes which result in insurmountable conditions.Yet one of the hijackers' passports survived fire and heat of over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit and was found in perfect shape in the rubble around the WTC towers, allowing the FBI to link the terrorists together and prove who did it.\n\nSince each plane has two separate Black Boxes which are designed to be indestructible in the event of a tragedy, that makes a total of EIGHT BLACK BOXES. We are to believe that all the Black Boxes were damaged beyond use, while a paper passport survived.\n\nAside from the idiocy of any suggestion that a passport would survive a plane crash that destroys the virtually indestructible Black Boxs. A passport in someone's pocket who is sitting on a plane that explodes will suffer the same fate as the person whose pocket it is in.


Here is the problem: Ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) is the principal ingredient in antifreeze. How many grams of ethylene glycol will be needed to lower the freezing point of 2100 g of water by 20 degrees Celcius? Kf for water is 1.86 C/m. \n\nthe answer i received is : 3495.8.  Is that correct? if I used sig figs, is the answer 3500?

Assuming the volume of Ethylene and water is NOT additive and the calculation is done in STP.\n\nDensity of water = 1g/1ml therefore 2100g = 2.1L water\n\nUsing Equation: Delta T = i(Kb)m\n\n22C = [(1.86C/m)(x)]/2.1L\nSolving for x = 22.58mol Ethylene glycol\n\nSince Molar Mass of Ethylene glycol = 62.06g/mol\n\n22.58mol(62.06g/mol) = 1401.31g of Ethylene glycol Needed.\n\nConverting to correct Sig Fig: 1401.31g = 1400g Ethylene.\n\n(Technically your answer should be 1000g due to One sig fig in 20 degrees in Celcius, but you usually never want to put any answer in 1 S.F., so I would leave it with 2 S.F.  I hope this helps.)


Imagine two goblins, each standing in front of a door. Now use the following dialogue:\n\ngoblin 2-one door leads to the castle, and the other door leads to certian death.\nyou-Which one's which?\ngoblin 1-You can only ask one of us, and one of us always tells the truth, and one of us always lies.\nyou-Alright, answer yes or no. Would he tell me that your door leads to the castle?\ngoblin 2-Yes...\n\nWhich goblin is standing in front of the door leading to the castle, and which goblin is standing in front of the door leading to certian death?\n\nThis is loosly adapted from the film script the labrynth. here's the site, so i don't get sued...http://www.astrolog.org/labyrnth/captions.txt

You can't figure out anything from this dialog.\n\nIf goblin 1 is lying when he says "one of us always lies and the other always tells the truth" then it must mean that both goblins are liars, and thus you know nothing about the destinations beyond the doors because goblin 2 is lying about them, they could both go to the castle, or death, or neither.\nIf, on the other hand he's telling the truth, then it again means that goblin 2 is lying and you STILL don't know anything about where the doors lead.


I live in an European country and I'd like to do the Student Exchange thing but I don't know how or on what terms. Can anyone help me out? Can you give me some sites or information?

My sister for several years hosted exchange students.  Here is what is done.  You need to go to your schools administrators and let them know that you would like to sign up for it.  I am not sure if there are any academic requirements.  If they support the program there, they will match you up with a host family in the country you choose.  My sister hosted only Japanese students (I don't know why).  As far as sites try Googling Foreign student exchange program.  It should give you the info you need.


The older I get, (I'm 28), the more I realize that when I dwell on the negatives in my life, I feel negative and vice-versa for positive. Just wondering how you feel?

I completely agree...sometimes there are things that affect our feelings regardless of what we do, but for the most part, it is the way you view the things that happen.  Sometimes it's hard to remember this, but you are completely right...positive attitude=positive day; negative attitude=negative day. :)


All the pictures shown by nasa never show the dark side, has any one seen films, pictures. Is nasa hiding something, because we are only able to see the bright side, if your lucky to own a telescope. You'll never see the dark side therefor it would be a great hiding spot, since noone can ever see. Also just like when the space shuttle was filming earth there were two objects that flew past the lens almost into the earths atmosphere went back into space the second object didn't stop but went right after it at light speeds. Nasa doesn't show this anymore and nothing on earth travelling thousands of miles per hour can stop dead for a thousandth of a second then go reverse. In todays migs fighter pilots would be killed by the g-force and if he/she wasn't then surely the jets would disintigrate.And what about area 51 maybe I'll stop asking questions to much information is no good. I don't need MIBs looking for me. What about Roswell! Oops maybe I'll shut up before I disappear.

Yes, there are pictures.\n\nThe Russians sent up the first unmanned ships in the 1960s, took pictures and named most of the features.  The US astronaughts in the Apollo missions saw them and took pictures also.


Aw you shouldn't be thinking that stuff, we are not as easy as advertised, we demand some foreplay.


Analytical is your understanding of things, practical is your skills at doing things, and creative is your ability to think up unexpected things and be original.


My boyfriend pisses me off and I am not getting over it, I keep saying I am gettin out of this relationship but is is harder than I thought. I have been busy with finals,work,kids housework, (stress) and my bf gets mad because I haven't paid "attention" to his needs. Tonite he made some joke about tonite is his turn with me, I ignored it because it was in front of the kids, when i ignored him he threatend to throw a drink at my white pants. What do you think?

i think you need to get the hell away from him if he is already threating things like that he is abusive


We have AOL Gay Cable and my mom might change isp if i clean the kitchen everyday for $10 a week, and i want to know the best and also some of the best ones and websites to go to so i can get a better isp and show my mom why its better?

I have Verizon DSL. It's ADSL and it's fairly cheap. I've never had any problems with reliability either.


Flipping through my congressman's essays, I came across a very interesting passing remark he made.\n\n"But could America exist without an income tax? The idea seems radical, yet in truth America did just fine without a federal income tax for the first 126 years of her history. Prior to 1913, the government operated with revenues raised through tariffs, excise taxes, and property taxes, without ever touching a worker's paycheck.  Even today, individual income taxes account for only approximately one-third of federal revenue.  Eliminating one-third of the proposed 2007 budget would still leave federal spending at roughly $1.8 trillion-- a sum greater than the budget just 6 years ago in 2000!  Does anyone seriously believe we could not find ways to cut spending back to 2000 levels?" - Ron Paul, R-Texas\n\nfull text here:\nhttp://www.house.gov/paul/tst/tst2006/tst041006.htm

The original income tax system established by the New Deal was necessary to provide federal support to thousands of Americans during the Great Depression.  At the time of its institution, it greatly assisted in spurring the American economy out of the desperate times.\nThe prior 126 years of American history details a financial different picture than today's America.  For one, the country was a lot smaller with few people.  The great immigration boom did not occur into the earlier part of the 20th century.  Governmental obligations were not as substantial as today's responsibility, and this is not just social programs.  We could not raise enough money through tariffs, excise taxes, and property taxes, to overcome our current debt obligations.  Furthermore, if this was the only form of tax, it would place a substantial burden on the middle class and imports.  Considering our current export/import ratio, foreign importeres would simply have to cease distribution to stall the American economy.\nI do however feel the system created by the New Deal has been bastardized into the current system, which is excessively in equal towards corporations and wealth Americans vs. middle/low income Americans.  I believe the system could be streamlined at both the federal, state and local levels.  Currently, although we do not pay high income tax (countries in Europe fair a lot worse) we pay additional taxes and government surcharges every day.  Ex. total taxes and fees on your personal cellphone bill average approximately 24% - 28% over your usage charge.\nNow, as to find ways to cut spending....yes, there are definitely areas in our budget to cut spending? will this get done?...only by the perservenence of the American people and the general understanding of what are taxes are paying for.  The "pet projects" or massive government failures (thing Boston Big Dig) continually drain our economic resource, and when our governmental debt is so strangulating that we have to keep increasing our cap, we will never be able to recede our government spending to levels able to sustain our American People.\nSome of the solutions presented: flat tax, purchase tax, etc, all sound equitable but each do have their own loop hole.\nPersonally, I would like to have a flat tax.  I would like to at the beginning of each year write a check for a fixed amount of money to the government for a percentage of my forecasted earnings for the upcoming year and not have anything come out of my check for the rest of the year.  But with this money that comes out, I would like programs which make sense - good education, good healthcare, good social security.  Our children should not have to suffer, our elder should not want for anything and every American should be able to get quality healthcare/preventative maintenance to sustain life.


In fact, "illegal aliens", is the ONLY term used in federal laws and regulations to describe criminals (and they ARE CRIMINALS!)who come into our country ILLEGALLY!! They are NOT "illegal immigrants,"undocumented immigrants","migrant workers",OR "day laborers"!!! THEY ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS=CRIMINALS!!! And MEXICO is NOT a "poor country!! It has the FIFTH richest economy IN THE WORLD!!" And,THANKS TO ALL THE ILLEGALS,mexico is getting RICHER off the U.S. taxpayers!!!!

Yep.  I got this email today.  Sums it up nicely.\n\n"Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.  Certain people are angry that the U.S. might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.  Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.\n \nLet's say I break into your house.  Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.  But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do.  I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house)."\n \nAccording to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he too is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part).  If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.  It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better \nmyself.  I'm hard-working and honest . um, except for ... well, you know.\n \nAnd what a deal it is for me!!   I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being anti-housebreaker.\n \nDid I miss anything?  Does this sound reasonable to you?  If it does, grab a sign and go picket something.    If this sounds insane to you, call your senators and enlighten them because they are stumbling in the darkness right now and really need your help."\n \nLinda Myers\nApril 10, 2006 -  New-Sentinel


AFTER ALL THE SCANDALS AND INDICTMENTS AND CONVICTIONS OF NEOCON POLITICIANS, I THINK THEIR REIGN IS OVER.

I think that anyone that says dems have screwed up as much as Republicans needs to actually pay attention to what's happening...\n\nbut to answer your question... I'm not sure... there are a lot of Republican states out there that are going to vote for their republican Representative, even if the Representative is skull f*cking the decaying corpse of Jesus Christ himself on national tv... just saying...\n\nSo I think the dems are going to make progress... but it's tough to fight that kind of blind loyalty overall


there is only one meaning to everything.

Motivation and education. \n\nSome people want the Bible to endorse their views or their behaviors and so they cut and paste a verse here or there like they are some kind of fortune cookie sayings, and then force them to mean what the Bible really doesn't. \n\nPastors and seminary professors help people get the context or the point an author is making, which they learn by lifelong study. But average people would likely come to similar interpretations if they would just read a whole context of a passage, and the whole portion of the Bible where it is found. \n\nThere will always be differences in opinion regarding minor doctrines, just because there is not crystal clarity 2000 years after the fact, but no Christians should be interpreting the primary doctrines of the faith differently, or they cease to be genuine Christians. \n\nFor example, the Bible teaches that Jesus is God incarnate. That is not disputed by any Christian. Only the cults would deny what the Bible teaches in this matter because they have an agenda or some additional writings which they allow to trump the Bible's authority. \n\nThe Bible teaches that we are to baptize converted people. How do you baptize, where, when, etc, is the kind of thing Christians can differ on and still be brothers and sisters in Christ.


I would like to know if Rain Dances are real or just an invention of Hollywood

They work if you do them long enough.  Timing is really important.


i saw a G&A in a text book asking if 2 men take 4 hr to do a job how long will it take 5 men. the answer in the back of the book said 1:36 mins i got 1:30 mins if you got the text book answer how did you get it

All right, start with the basic formula of Jobs=Workers*Rate*Time.  (J=WRT).  First, you need to find the rate.  For J, put in 1 because it says they did a job.  For W, put in 2 and for T put in 4.  If you solve that (1=2*R*4), you get that R=1job/8hours per worker.  Okay, so go back to your equation of J=WRT.  You still want to do 1 job, you have the rate of 1/8, and you have 5 workers.  Your equation is now 1=5*(1/8)*T.  Solve for time, and you get 8/5 hours, or 1 3/5 hours.  1/5 of an hour is 12 minutes, so 3/5 hours is 36 minutes.  Time is 1:36.


i know there are a lot of doubts about this because the energy required would be close to infinite, and opening up a wormhole would also be next to impossible, even in the next 200 years of scientific advancement.  But, are there any scientific optimist out there who truly believes that we'll be able to achieve FTL in the next century or so, and why?  Give some minor facts to back up your claim.

There is a big difference between predictions that the speed of sound could not be broken and that the speed of light cannot. It was always known that *some* things can go faster than sound. Bullets for example. The question was whether we would have the technology to get people to that speed.\n\nThe speed of light is very different since we haven't seen *anything* go faster than light in a vacuum. Nothing. Ever. Furthermore, the predictions of special relativity have been verified in particle accelerators when the particles are going to within a hundred thousandth of the speed of light.\n\nAs an example, at Fermilab protons are accelerated to energies of 2TeV. This is over 2000 times the rest mass of those protons. To accelerate something the mass of a *gram* to an equivalent speed would take about the energy of the largest hydrogen bomb ever exploded. This amount of energy would be needed for each gram to get to that speed, so multiply it by 75000 for a medium sized human. And that doesn't count the spaceship they would have to travel in!\n\nNow, this is how much energy is needed to get to speed we *know* about. To go faster would require even more. Unfortunately, we have never seen a wormhole of any type. But the predictions are that the energy requirements would be even more prohibitive than what I just described.


Most certainly not! That is completely ridiculous and people like that all need to be punched in the face (figuatively speaking)! That way of thinking is too insulting for words. I cant believe how ignorant and closed minded people are today. It truely is a sad, sad thing.


I believe that 666 means, 6th seal, 6th vial & 6th trump. If anyone can count, 6 comes before 7.

In Ancient Greek it is the  Fifth & sixth letter of the Greek Alphebet and Stigma . "Not Sigma!" Chi Xi Stigma.\nFind the ancient Greek look at the 5th & 6th letter and you will see it is not Hex Hex Hex, which would be 666. This Stigma is the Mark of the Anti-Christ or Anti-Anointed. and Anointed Christians are all who will understand because this Mark cannot touch them.


i only have 2 friends on my messanger list that supermode will work with, the others it won't work any idea how that can be fixed if it can??????

It all has to do with firewalls - Supermode requires a direct path from you to your friend.  If you have no firewall but they do, their firewall will see the connection as a type of intrusion thus causing it not to work.\n\nYahoo uses the following for Supercam:\n    * Protocol: TCP\n    * Server: webcam.yahoo.com\n    * Port: 5100\n\nSo make sure you and your friends have TCP port 5100 forwarded to your computer.  This is usually done by logging into the router or opening the firewall's options and looking for a function called "Port or Service Forwarding".


I constantly hear a hissing sound in the right ear. (since 2 years). All other body parameters are normal. I do not suffer any other disease.

In most cases, there is no specific treatment for ear and head noise. If your otolaryngologist finds a specific cause of your tinnitus, he or she may be able to eliminate the noise. But, this determination may require extensive testing including X-rays, balance tests, and laboratory work. However, most causes cannot be identified. Occasionally, medicine may help the noise. The medications used are varied, and several may be tried to see if they help.\n\nThe following list of DOs and DON'Ts can help lessen the severity of tinnitus:\n\n    * Avoid exposure to loud sounds and noises.\n    * Get your blood pressure checked. If it is high, get your doctor's help to control it.\n    * Decrease your intake of salt. Salt impairs blood circulation.\n    * Avoid stimulants such as coffee, tea, cola, and tobacco.\n    * Exercise daily to improve your circulation.\n    * Get adequate rest and avoid fatigue.\n    * Stop worrying about the noise. Recognize your head noise as an annoyance and learn to ignore it as much as possible.


I bike quite often, but i'd like to help exercise various parts of my body. I'm thinking of getting a medicine ball (or a fitness ball/stability ball). I'm also thinking of getting a toning tube set. What do you think would be best?

I would get the toning tubes first.  The resistance bands are good for working out all parts of your body and you can do many exercises with them.  Next, I'd get the stability ball.  You can use that in combination with the toning tubes and do even more exercises.  A medicine ball is different than a stability ball.  The stability ball is the big inflatable ball that you sit or balance on.  A medicine ball is a smaller weighted ball.  It is good for doing weighted crunches and other weighted ab/core exercises.  I'd get that last just because it has the least uses of the 3.

What does it mean to keep the Sabbath Holy......Should i go to church on Saturday and rest and do what the Seven-Day adventist do....or is it okay to Go to church on Sunday...I'm Confused please explain in depth what does keep the Sabbath HOly mean

If your Christian you don't need to do anything but believe Jesus is G-d. Ten Commandments Jesus fulfilled them, Sabbath observance Jesus fulfilled, 613 laws Jesus fulfilled.\n\nIt was actually brilliant on Paul's part make a religion that all you have to do is believe. The perfect marketing plan. Want eternal salvation Just believe want eternal damnation don't believe

Does it mean anything in your religion? One of the signs of the end of times in Islam is that earthquakes and natural disasters will increase.

It is true that when asked for a sign that would mark his presence and the nearness of the conclusion of this system of things, Jesus gave one to his apostles.  But it should be remembered that the sign given by Christ in Matthew 24 and Luke 21 is a composite one made up of different facets.  The sign takes on significance, not when some facets are seen as isolated events in isolated areas, but when all facets are seen globally and within the same time frame. It may be likened to a finger print – unique in character.  One characteristic of the sign is earthquakes.  While it is certainly true that earthquakes have been occurring for millennia, in the context of the entire sign, something radically different occurred in the 20th century and is occurring here in the infancy of the 21st century.  So what about earthquakes, mentioned in Luke 21:10 and Matthew 24:7?\n\nThe U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reported that  “2003 closed as the deadliest year for earthquakes since 1990, 25 times more fatal than 2002,” according to a press release from the agency. “In 2002, 1711 people died in quakes around the world,” while 43,819 perished last year. About 41,000 of those deaths occurred in Iran when a magnitude 6.6 earthquake hit the city of Bam on December 26. The most severe quake, and the only one to qualify as a “great” quake, was the one that struck Hokkaido, Japan, on September 25. It had a magnitude of 8.3. According to the report, “the USGS locates about 50 earthquakes each day. . . . On average, there are 18 major earthquakes (magnitude 7.0 to 7.9) and one great earthquake (8.0 or higher) each year worldwide. Several million earthquakes occur in the world each year, but many go undetected because they occur in remote areas or have very small magnitudes.”  \n\nCertainly many say that the number of earthquakes has not substantially increased in recent decades. In this regard, the U.S. National Earthquake Information Center reports that earthquakes of 7.0 magnitude and greater remained “fairly constant” throughout the 20th century.\n\nBut take another look at Jesus’ prophecy.  The fulfillment does not require an increase in the number of earthquakes or in their power. Jesus simply said there would be great earthquakes in one place after another.  Moreover, he said that these events would mark the beginning of pangs of distress.  Matthew 24:8  We do not measure distress by the number of earthquakes or how they rate on the Richter scale; we measure distress by the effect those earthquakes have on people.  Can anyone reasonably suggest that earthquakes have not caused great distress in our day?\n\nIt is noteworthy that when giving this prophecy, Jesus also said that, just as in the days of Noah before the flood, many would take no note, carrying on their lives as if nothing at all were different.  Matthew 24:39.  This failure to take note and keep on the watch would not only be a part of the sign itself, but ultimately, would cost them their lives.\n\nEarthquakes are but one facet of the sign. Taken by themselves, they mean little.  Taken as an integral part of the entire sign, they mean much.  We all do well to consider the sign in its entirety.


i looked into halls institute in the keys of florida and found it to be to expensive plus you had to live there and i work to much to take the time off to go to the school, i want to know if there is another way to work in the scuba field as a career. i need help and direction on how to get started with the best teaching at the right price

For most people who are interested in becoming a dive professional, they actually don't look to go to a specialized school like Halls Institute.  The first thing is to go to your favorite local dive shop (LDS) and inquire about the Dive Master course.  Find a store and more specifically an instructor that you like, respect, and want to work with.  Sign up to become a dive master (DM).\n\nDive master programs come in a variety of flavors.  Depending on structure, these programs can last a couple weeks of intensive training or a few months of weekend sessions.  \n\nPersonally, I would chose the most rigorous and time intensive program available, since this will typically prepare you the most as a professional.  There is nothing like seeing and helping students in real life situations, and gaining the knowledge first hand.\n\nDepending on LDS, the agency, and the instructor, prices can range from $500 to $800 for DM training in my area.\n\nUpon completing your DM, you can then decide whether you want to continue to becoming an instructor.  A larger commitment, both in time and money, but the diving world can always use another good instructor.

Kernel32.dll is the 32-bit dynamic link library found in the Windows operating system kernel. It handles memory management, input/output operations, and interrupts. When Windows boots up, kernel32.dll is loaded into a protected memory space so other applications do not take that space over. \n\nOn occasion, though, users may encounter the "invalid page fault" error. \n\n\nThis error occurs when a program or application tries to access kernel32.dll's protected memory space. Sometimes the error is caused by one particular program or application, and other times it is provoked by multiple files and applications. \n\n\nIf the problem results from running one application, then the application needs to be replaced. If the problem occurs when accessing multiple files and applications, the corruption is probably caused by faulty hardware. \n\n\nThis website has the missing file for download: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?kernel32

I've read that the sound comes from the release of gas bubbles. If so, what sort of gas bubbles are they, and how can releasing them possibly make so much noise?

Escaping gases: Scientists explain that synovial fluid present in your joints acts as a lubricant. The fluid contains the gases oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. When you pop or crack a joint, you stretch the joint capsule. Gas is rapidly released, which forms bubbles. In order to crack the same knuckle again, you have to wait until the gases return to the synovial fluid.

the way we live and our culture would come to an end.They are already here.So any effects that you would feel,you have already been feeling.

The problem is that the legalization elements have been all entwined in the guest worker program which is a really bad program.  One Senator ran projections of how many poor immigrants would come here under the program (on TOP of the current rate of immigration and on TOP of the current illegal immigrants) and he came up with 185 million to 217 million poor immigrants in the next 20 years.  Even California Senators Boxer and Feinstein who have been pushing for legalization as their main goal in the program voted against this element of the program. (They lost.)\n\nCan  your school and neighborhood fit and support that many poor immigrants?  Mine can't. Do you see that many jobs around? I don't.  This is a big business idea to keep wages depressed for unskilled and semi skilled labor into the indefinite future.\n\nIf the border is truly secured, I want to deport felons and want illegal immigrants to actively start learning English as a condition of legalization.  However, as you say, they are already here.  The problem is that if you say you want legalization people now say 'I want the guest worker program' and most of them don't have a clue what is in it.\n\nIf there is a way to frame the bill during conference into qualified illegal legalization plus MAJOR border security, I would be in favor of it.  To tell the truth, though, I'd rather have no bill at all than the Senate Bill in its current form.

what do u people think on this matter about whatever is going on in india about fight for reservation ? see the reservation in our country is for some backward class people who are very poor who cant even afford to buy books but as they also wana be with every 1 and they also love to study government has kept reservations for them ,  great leader Dr. ambedkar has made rule for reservation and he has fought for backward class and give them equal rights in this society now when this backward people are well educated going a head then upper cast people so these issiue is being arised and once medical students strike was sucessful so they are trying to be sucessful next time also but bcoz of this patients are suffering , 4 people died during this reservation issiue bcoz doctors were on strike , so doesnt backward community people have the right to survive and learn , if yes then why this people are careating a issiue out of this ? what would u say regarding this matter ?

simple.. vote bank politics. and why only the congress. no other party has opposed it. they don't want to loose their share of obc and sc st votes. even the bjp has not spoken on it. clearly shows that the parliament at present is full of rotten demented politicians who care only for their power\n\nnow coming back to the main point ; -\n\nreservation as such should not completely be removed. i agree with you. the basis should be monetary as i have stated in one of my earlier answers on the same topic.\n50% is not required considering the fact that so many seats remain vacant. \nit should be ensured that once a person from the backward class gets reservation his following generations should not be allowed to avail this opportunity because that is gross injustice. and once in office he should not be given the privilege of early promotion which is extremely unfair. and also people from the backward section earning decent money should not be given reservation (unlike one of my friends who is an sc and is in iit.. he didn't deserve reservation beacuse.his parents annual income was 7 lakhs.. imagine!!)\n\nthere are olny two sections rich and poor. extend the reservation to the poor.\n\nand also reservation at each and every step will handicap the person mentally and he will never put the best effort into his work beacuse it will be at the back of his mind that he has an advantage over others..

V=UG >> a code word = input which is of 2^k different values\nG=[P I]>> G =generating matrix \nH=[I P']>> H=Parity check matrix\n\nso using some row operations \n\n1. switch places of R1 and R4\n2. add R3+R4 place it in R3\n3. add R2+R1 place it in R2\n4. add R1+R3 place it in R1\n5. add R1+R2 place it in R1\n\nyou'll get \n\nG = 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 \n    1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 \n    1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0\n    1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1\n\nthus \n\nH=  1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1\n    0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 \n    0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 \n    0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 \n\n\nRegarding the required to prove:\n\nit's simple \n\nyou have k=4, then you'll have 2^4 inputs which are multiplied by your generating matrix ,for example if u=0011\nyou'll sum last two rows of G to get V\n\nthen any V(codeword) is only a summation of a number of rows of G\n\nand since that the weight of any row of G is even that's why the output V's will always have an even weight ...!!\n\nsee i told u its simple... :)\n\nhope i ve been of help


FYI: I reply to the answers that I receive.

I hate it when people are negative all the time. It makes me wonder what they have missed in life because of that. If you constantly think something won't work or won't be fun, etc.. it only limits the opportunities in life. I say be happy, try stuff and if it ends up "sucking" then oh well, move on!\nWHY DO PEOPLE COME ON HERE AND WRITE A BOOK FOR THE ANSWER? JUST GET TO THE POINT. NO ONE WANTS TO READ A FRIGGIN ESSAY ON THE SUBJECT.


Some of the documents contain job application packages, etc

well dont open them, unless you want to take the chnace of your computer crashing, request new app.s


I have been with my girlfriend for seven years. \n\nWe used to be great together and I was completely in love with her. But we had to move apart for more than one year due to our jobs. \n\nWe have only just moved back in together and I don't feel the same way as I used to. I'm not sure that I am in love with her anymore. But we still make a good team and enjoy each others company.\n\nShe wants to get married this summer and I am really feeling unsure. How do you know if she/he is the one? And do you need love or just a good partnership to make the marriage work?

I think there is a difference between being in love and loving someone. Loving someone is more enduring and is a better basis for a marriage since most couples find that after years of marriage they need to have a good partner and friend. Since you have had an attraction to this partner and were in love at one point, I think you have a good chance to have a solid marriage. However, you really should look at your own feelings about marriage in general and ask yourself if you are ready to commit. Otherwise it won't work. Don't worry about not feeling the same a little less romantic feeling is normal over time and to keep a more romantic outlook requires more work. \nGood luck.


3 people go to a hotel, the bill is 30 dollars so they each pay 10 dollars.\nafter some time the deskclerk realizes that he overcharged them because the room was actually only 20 dollars, he give the bellboy 10 dollars to return to them and he does. the people each keep 1 dollar and give the bellboy a 7 dollar tip.o.k. \nSummarry: they each pay 10 dollars but each get 1 back so that means it cost them 9 each---3 times 9 is 27 plus the 7 dollars for the bellboy is $34. \n\nDo anyone still miss the missing dollar? If possible help me explain to whatever this info. That because the last case two dollar tip was small unlike this case $7, its just a brain trick.(read my answer in 3people $30 again). \n\nWhat do mathematicians do anyway?

the missing dollar is in the till and the bellboy has the rest


What are the pros and cons of it (personal views). And does any one have any articles on this topic?\n\nThanks

are you talking about school coop programs.  if so, they are a good idea especially if you can gain some experience in a field that  you are interested in or are planning to enter after graduation.  coops give you the ability to see what a day to day existitance inthat field is like.  it also quickly lets you decide if you want to be in that field with little loss to yourself.


The world has always had the Haves, The have nots, and the have nothings.Even nowadays, with all of our technology, there is no real steps being made to even out the balance. Will we ever evolve beyond this state of quasi-natural law?

I don't think you need an underclass for society to operate. A country like Sweden for example provides a reasonable level of education for all it's citizens. They as a result don't have much of an underclass and they are very prosperous.\n\nIt's obvious there are people with a vested interest in maintaining and underclass to provide cheap labor.\n\nThey have a lot of people fooled.


Can Muslims tell me if you agree with this!?\n\nA) America has helped Muslims through out the years.\nExamples: Tsunami, Bosnia, Kosovo.\n\nB) It is NOT America or 'The West' that are Anti-Islam, It Is the Terrorists!\n\nC) It is NOT America or 'The West' that are making people Hate Islam and Muslims, But IT IS the Terrorists!\n\nD) Israel is NOT a 'Nazi' State! First off, Where are the Gas Ovens??? or the Concentration Camps???\n\nE) Israel has Every Right to Exist! As Much a Right as Egypt, Jordan, !\n\nF) The Holocaust is NOT a 'MYTH'. Millions of Deaths are Recorded. Many Eye Witnesses. Much Evidence.\n\n\nG) Israel does Not Control The World! (Besides, How can less than 6 Million Israelis control the globe????)\n\nH) Real JIHAD (Struggle) Is Helping in the Fight against Terror!\n\nTo finish off, Its always important to differentiate between the Government of Israel and the People of Israel.\n\nIts Also important to Differentiate between the US Government and the American people.

okay lets answer each point:\n1.a. The Tsunami was an obligation to the world and all nations not just ours! they were a ppl in need.\n   b.Bosnia- we waited until they were massacred and as we did in Kosovo so that doesn't count as humanitarian or anything else.\n2.Granted terrorist are too blame for their actions but so are Americans and if you think that we as Americans don't promote hatred of ppl and religions.  You are either crazy or just plain naive.\n3.I ask you this:  Did Iraq have anything to do with 9/11?\n4.You don't need all of that to be a Nazi state,just deny ppl work,medical care,food water,and schooling for their children. How about mowing down their livelihoods (olive trees) or maybe bull dozing their homes so that Jews can move in and build their homes.\n5.So Do Palestinians!\n6.Then why deny how many Palestinians they have put into refugee camps or murdered on the streets (like the little girl that was riding her bike).\n7.When you own/or are part of the most important things like the federal reserve and the media you CAN control the world and ppl perceptions.\n8.Maybe if Americans didn't feel the need to  control ppl maybe we could be the nation that our fathers thought we would grow into.\n9. It is very important to DIFFERENTIATE between Muslims, terrorist, Palestinians ,Christians who live in the same area!\n10. The US government is supposed to be for the ppl and by the ppl,so their is no difference...... remember?


do you agree this !!! who do you think is the most beautiful girl here ???? \nno rude or mean answers plzzzzzzzzzzzzz !!!!

I'm a wizard because... 5 years ago i was cathlic. I was happy then. One day some men came to my front door and broke it down. my mom was scared then and said shed pay them. they said it was too late. they pulled out knifes. i watched as they gained ground on her. i prayed to god and jesus to save her but the didn't. they killed her even though i still prayed and prayed. when i saw her dead on the ground i cursed him. u want to know y? its because even though i told god to save her he didnt! he let her die like she was already dead. he didnt care. thats why i cursed him. that night i vowed to avenge my mother and to kill anyone in the way. i became a wizard and am now being taught to bewitch people. im already skilled in every weapon u could think of. thats why im a wizard. thanks for listening.

WOW DAM MAN SORRY BOUT UR MOM... I HOPE U CAN GET REVENGE SOON... YEAH GOD SUCKS... H NEVER HELPS US


I have a card with my name under my mothers account, (she pays the bill) so I was told that it doesnt count as anything. She has very good credit, and so will I, although how do i prove it? Its time for me to get my own credit card, although I have no credit (no good or bad credit) so who would accept me?

Just get any credit card, doesn't matter what the interest rate or anything is. Just make sure you pay it off every month then the interest won't matter and it will help your credit rating. Make sure the card doesn't have an annual fee either. Then eventually you will be offered better credit cards. I currently have 7 credit cards because i opened four credit cards when i was 17 then went from there and now i have better credit cards with rewards.\n\nDo not listen to the people that are telling you to get debit cards, if you want a credit rating you need to have available credit which doesn't apply to a debit card.\n\nAlso, getting a credit card from certain stores such as Victoria's secret don't necesarily work as a real credit card, they are only limited to that store.\n\nCiti card would be a good card to start out with, you just have to be responsible with it, if you want a good credit rating you can't abuse it.


The Bible...  the most well-known book to mankind.  What do you believe?  Fact or fiction?  Why do people fight and die and push their beliefs of this book onto so many others?\n\nMe personally...  I'm a Christian.  I believe Jesus is my Savor and that god is real.  But, this book is written with the hand of man.  Its been published by man through thousands of centuries and yet we still believe each word is the word of God?\n\nDon't get me wrong folks.  The bible is something everyone should read.  Regardless of religion due to its morals and stories.  Like Asope's Fables.  But why fight so hard for something written by man?  Why quote scripture after scripture of bubbling garbage and expect me to fall for your brainwashed Christian beliefs.  \n\n(For those closeminded people)\nIf you follow the Bible to such a high extent, then why do you sin, so?  Lead by example...  don't judge me of my sins if you have your own.

This is a year long project where high school students research a topic and work on it throughout the school year and present it in front of a panel of judges at the end of the school year.  Anyways, I'm looking for some interesting & creative research project ideas I could do.  Topics could range from writing & illustrating a book, forming a band and recording a song and making a music video, convincing the school board to add a tennis program at the middle school and even re-landscaping an old park.  Any ideas are appreciated and thanks for your input.

First, you have to do what you are really into!  Then, choose something very broad, like an entire subject, animals, art, etc.  Then, brainstorm on what you can research on.  For example, if you like history, then choose a big subject like the pyramids or an entire culture.  Then keep going deeper and deeper into the subject.\n\nWhat I would do is research on the theory of the book "da Vinci Code" there are many things that you can discover in the book that are real and some that are not true, other things can be put into discussion and that would be pretty interesting to have your own views and ideas.  You can also talk about how you would change parts of the book and why


Personally, I don't think it is appropriate because to me flowers are so intimate. Blind dates are casual, no? Unless it's your signature, something you personally do all the time, then maybe. (Like you own a flower shop or arrange flowers or grew them yourself.)\nBut if you feel compelled do it right: Roses are really admired by most but the color means different things: Red roses mean romantic love; Purple=love at 1st sight coral and orange mean desire. Yellow=friendship Pink appreciation and white=purity well black ususally=death


A mother have two kids. One kid is constantly rude, nasty, and annoying to the other kid. The other kid is very nice, generous, loving, and understanding of the that kid. \n\nThe mom knows about it because she is always behind their backs and knows the situation. She knows it is unfair for the nice child. She loves both kids equally. She kept it inside of her for years and don't discipline the rude child to stop. The kids aren't gifted or disabled. Why are some parents this way? They are home every night to cook and spend time with this kids.

It could just be that the parents are letting their growth take a natural path to begin with where both the kids have equal love and are open to making their own statement.\n\nIn a way it's a good training ground to prepare you for the real world.\n\nIt would be wonderful if the timid kid learns to defend himself voluntarily rather than just be protected and shielded by the parents. If he learns to stand up for himself it’ll help him when he really goes out in the real world because it’s a rough world out there.\n\nThough if this pattern continues without any change for the better then the parents must intervene to settle the issue. \n\nHope my perspective makes sense.\n\nTake care.


How many calories should I be consuming as a runner?\nAs an 18-year-old girl who runs 20-30 miles a week, about how many calories should I be consuming per day? I live a fairly active lifestyle: I go to school and then either swim or play tennis recreationally afterwards (in addition to running).\n\nOh, and I'm about 5'2" and weigh about 112 lbs if that helps.

well, the question is: are you gaining weight, losing weight, or maintaining the weight? If you're neither losing nor gaining, then you're consuming the right number of calories for your metabolism.


I owned property through a commissioners sale , Got a deed and writ of pocession through the circut court ,Previous owner who lost the property .reedemed it , Got a deed .\nHowever I had filed an appeal in the court of appeals before his deed was made . Question , Is his deed any good?\nDoesn`t my appeal stay further action until the court of appeals makes a descission ,If so what can i do\n\nThanks\nshakespeare

i would think ur deed is enforceable since the previous owner lost the property, but then again it all comes down to ur own state constitution, n the laws of ur state. however, the court of appeals might give u the right to the deed.

Hi Honey,\n\nI too suffer from depression, and have now for about 17 years.  Recently I did something about it.  I stopped looking at it as a flaw I have in my personality and started looking at it as a flaw I have in my medical health.  I went to the doctor and let her put me on antidepressants and mood stablizers.  And guess what I discovered?  I'm not flawed and depression is not hopeless with no cure.  YOU CAN TREAT THE SYMPTOMS!  You have to let someone help you, please.  Go to the doctor explain whats wrong and let them give you medication.  My medication helps me alot: I can sleep now, I'm less worried about things, and every little thing doesn't just disrupt my life.  There is no magic pill that can make it all go away, but if you take your medication consistently and be patient some of your symptoms will be alieviated.  I'm living proof.


It's itchy, swollen and red, about the size of a quarter.  Didn't see the spider.

Ice cube, cold washcloth, baking soda, or hydrocortizone.. if you think it was poisonise then go seek medical treatment.  Or if it worsens to seek medical treatment.


an interesting fact that u think i dont know.\njust got it a couple months ago and i need to\nlearn some more.

He was the Emperor of Japan during WWII. He surrendered to Harry Truman after Truman dropped the bombs on Japan. That's what he did.

I have been considering for some time that I should have a plan incase of zombie attack. I was thinking of a shotgun. If I had the money I would definitly consider a self-sufficient anti-zombie compound to live in. Does anyone else have a plan or basic idea of how they would handle a zombie infestation?

Ive thought of a paint ball gun...and all the accessories with it...

I don't want to hear, "Cause they're takin' my freedom man" or "because the government's ran by old people" I would like to get some links about the real reasons. One i heard was back in 1930 something that hemp was going to put Dow Chemical out of business so they payed off politicians to make it illegal. Just real facts with something to back it up please, no 14 year old i just smoked pot so i'm cool comments plz.

Let me first start by saying I have never smoked any pot or done anyother type of drugs in my life. Not because I have any religious beliefs against it or anything, but just because I like having control of my mind and thoughts. I also do not drink by personal choice. (not that I look down on you if you do.) \n\nI believe the main reason that pot is not legal is because of voting pressure against our leaders. They know that there are tons of groups such as M.A.D.D. and others that would make sure that they were never re-elected. However I feel that if we ever have leaders with enough balls to do it, it would not only lower the crime rate but it would overall help our country finanially.\n\n\n\nIf they legalized drugs it would...\n\nA. Make room in our prisons. Our prisons are overflowing with so many people that they are constanly having to turn guilty criminals loose on the streets to make room for more. About 73% of people in jail are there on some type of drug charge or another. If they legalized drugs there would be more room to house murderers, rapists, and other serious criminals in this world.\n\nB. It would lower the persentage of roberies everyday in this country. If drugs were legal, the price of them would drop jurasticlly. Therefore there would not be as many desperate people out there who are willing to steal to feed their habit.\n\nC. It would bring more economic opportunity to our various states. If it were able to be purchased the same as you would a beer (which by the way it does absolutely no more harm than beer does) then any store could aquire a license to sell and it would hence bring more money for our honest local buisiness owners, instead of into the pockets of lowlife scum dealers.\n\nThese are my thoughts on this subject.


My daughter plays Lacrosee for her High school, her coach wants her to put together a Lacrosse Resume. Are there any sites, etc.. where I can go and find examples on how I put together a Lacrosse Resume'?????

I think that the coach might want a list of her stats, her experience (all the teams she has played for and camps attended), awards, and I would also create a highlight tape.


And in his room there sits a Manikin head that looks exactly like you... What do you do??

I would ask a  question..\n WHY does he have a maneqquin head in his room (or own one at all)???\n if it really does look like you, and that's his answer...offer to give him a picture of you\n That is a VERY strange thing to find in a guy's room.. or anywhere really..I don't know what I'd do... I think if I REALLY liked this guy, I'd find out why he has it... And if the answer was still a bit strange (which most likely will be unless he's an aspiring hair stylist),I would first let him know it makes you a bit uncomftorable.. And pay attention and see if he has any other "fetishes" or whatever that may make you rethink this relationship.


They call, and call and call.\n"Your number have been randomly selected to win a free phone"\n"Congratulation, we can help you with a new phone package"\n"Would you like to complete a survey, and we will promise to this is a one off cal"\n\nI was once polite, and told them sorry im not interested in changing my phone plan/mortgage/car insurance/anything. Then they kept on calling and calling. Its now at the point, where every time an Indian voice is heard, I tell them that their mother is a dog, and go rape a cow. I am simply sick of Indian call centres. I’m pleading with my SP to block all traffic from India, but that may not be possible, and records show that I am receiving calls from that region. \n\nAre Indians simply THICK and don’t get it?\nOr \nAre they to stupid and don’t understand that Australians aren't going to agree to anything, over the phone from some foreign (Indian) voice in the middle of the night.

Alot of Australian companies outsource call centres to India as they labour is cheap and most of them can speak, read and write English (albeit badly). A new Do Not Call register will be set up as of June 06 in Australia- so register on that. It lists it on the website of the telecommunication ombudsman!


Do you keep it in a jar?\nunder your bed in a shoe box?\nor give it to a friend to keep?\nor have you lost it?

and my friends want me to pass to the 8th grade

First, talk with your teachers and get your exact average.\nSecond, if you don't have an agenda, get one and write down all assignments.\nThird, never say you don't have homework. You do -every night until school gets out you have to be studying.\nThird, see if you can get someone to tutor you if you don't understand something.


You cannot get along well with siblings. Parents fail to understand you. At school you are being target by the bullies, and teachers seem fail to reach out to you. At workplace you seem being isolated by your fellow workers or employees. You are alone to face these constant bombardment everyday.\n\nHow well can you cope with these things? You managed well or you are in depression?\n\nWelcome for all introverts of different age group. Please, if you feel to give me a long answer, go ahead and give me a long one. Thank you.

I have been chief among the introverts all my life. All that you mentioned I have experienced, and more. I thought for a time that there was nothing more than loneliness and pain for me for the rest of my life. A time or two I wondered who would care if I just folded my tent and went home. Who would even notice I was gone? Maybe Mom and Dad, no one else.\nBut I was not willing to give up. You know that feeling. You know there is something more for you, somewhere, somehow.\nCall it stubborness, call it tenacity. We introverts have it deep within us. Deeper and harder to reach than in our extroverted counterparts, but stronger too. I finally recognized that my life as I knew it was simply not all I was meant to be. There were things that burned deeply within me that were screaming to get out. We have talents that no extrovert could imagine. We have a passion for life that they only dream of. No, they don't even know it exists! We have gifts that stir our souls every day. No one knows they are there but you and me. I have been there at your side my friend, I've stood in your shoes. The pathway we walk as introverts may be rugged and narrow, but it is rutted and worn from those who have gone before us when the way was far less traveled.\nTake a look within yourself this weekend. Consider what you want to do for the rest of the world that so desperately needs your help. Is it you who insults and bullies? No! Is it you who won't reach out to the quiet kid? No. Is it you who is blinded by all that is flickering and buzzing around in this fast paced world? No. Does your mind fly from one thing to the next without ever acknowledging the simple and quiet things of beauty? No! It's others who do that. Not you and I. We see the subtle changes in the shadows on the mountainside as the Sun moves across the sky. We smell the faint fragrance of a tiny flower others would simply trample. We think, and consider, and imagine. Others only respond to their environment. We see, and taste, and smell, and know what can be. We are the ones who consider, and dream, and invent, and design, and write, and bring tears of joy to others. We weep for the beauty of a piece of music. We must touch and absorb a work of art. We experience life. Others just live in it.\nWe need them. Don't get me wrong! But we are needed more! Our talents are needed more! Our vision is needed more!\nSo look inside. Do you want to write? Take up your pen. \nDo you want to create a work of art that will bring others to tears? Take up your brush! Do you want to help them understand what they could have been? Show them what you are. \nI have learned that I can stand before a room full of people and have them screaming with laughter at my humor. And with my next sentence have them weeping in acknowlegement of some thought or situation. I've done it. And not just once. I have another series of meetings to present next week that I volunteered to lead. Every morning next week the conference room will be all mine for an hour with seventy plus people each day. Managers, engineers, craftsmen, project leads, superintendents. And only me up front. Scare you? Me too... every time I've done it. Many, many times now. But people always shake my hand and pat me on the back and tell me they wish they could do that. They have no idea what it took to get up there. But when it's over I feel absolutely alive.\nI'll be wringing wet with sweat and exhausted when I'm finished, but they don't know that. All they know is they had a blast and want to know when I can do it again. How did I get there? Stubborn tenacity! I have suffered through too many presentations from flighty and disconnected extroverts. I love extroverts, I do. But I knew I could do better. I just had to get up and do it!\nAt church I can kneel down with someone in prayer and bond in complete unity with them in God's spirit for a few moments. I know exactly what they are feeling and what they

I used to do a lot of analysis on this particular topic a few yrs ago and we took either 70 or 75% for "meeting meals".  It was considered this if it was held for company purposes, etc.  But I cannot seem to find any information on this now.  I know I am not going crazy!

all of our clients only get 50% for both travel and entertainment.  \nperhaps the numbers have changed??  \n\ndo you work in a special program, ie. dept of transportation allows up to 70% deduction\n\njoe

i want to know what is the phytotoxin or plant toxin,how it effect on human being and other living organism,is there type of phytotoxin ,what is it?

phytotoxin is a poison.  It's mainly in plants.  Ricin is one of the major phytotoxins.. it's a protein poison. It's made from the waste left over from processing castor beans.\n\nAlso it's aerosol.  So if a human inhales it, major changes will happen within hours effecting the respitory system.   \n\nIf eaten, ricin causes severe pains int he stomach and can cause a person to collapse and die.


have 2 kids that i would be moving also. Is quality of life better there?

I would suggest you come over for a holiday so you can check out the property scene and the areas in general.  Depending on the job you might want to live just outside Edinburgh - property is much cheaper and, if you think it out, the commute is not bad (many companies are now location outside the city centre anyway).\n\nEdinburgh has the same issues as most major cities - you just need to check the culture fits with how you want to live.\n\nOne point that I cannot stress enough - unlike the poster above DO NOT (I repeat) DO NOT refer to the Country as England ... this is a massive bugbear to Scottish people and actually quite insulting (think of calling someone from the deep south a Yankee [then multiply the insult by 10!).\n\nI am sure you know but the whole country is Great Britain/UK, with England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales making up the different parts.  \n\nEdinburgh is in Scotland and the UK, Edinburgh is not in England\n\nGood luck with it - drop me a note if you need any more.


There is a woman in my store right now. Her pants are hanging down in the back and her granny panties are showing. Should I try to be helpful and point out the fashion faux pas to her? Or should I just attempt to "wedgie" her?

I'de go for the wedgie myself....turn them granny panties into a thong dude....do it!!!


Well me and this guy went out my friend hooked us up. We broke up because I was shy and someother reason. But I still like him and I think he might like me but too afraid too ask me out. Should I be the one asking him out?

Well, before you make a move, look back at the main reason why do you broke up at the 1st place.  Is that problem settle? Or did you overcome it?  If your answer is YES.  Then go a head.  Take a shot.  Who knows, like you said he still like and waiting for you.  But better be prepared for the NO answer from him, as you the one who end your relationship last time, right?  Anyway, GOOD LUCK!!!!

a placekicker for the redskins (1988-1994)


My son just turned 18 and wants to get into a fight club. He's like 6'4", and weighs like 245 lbs. and knows boxing, and  street fighting. Knows he has alot to learn, and is willing to go through it all.

His best bet would be to enter some "open" tournments in the area. EX: The N.A.G.A. holds grappling tourments where one does not need to be part of a club to participate.  If he does well there other's that are part of clubs will attempt to recruit him.  From there he will train with others and when skill levels raise they will support him into UFC events and or Pride events.  Or look for any training facilities in your area that specialize in martial arts but make sure they are endorse by a national agency. If your located out in the lost lands it might be tough but worth the effort if he's really serious about it.


I haven't heard much about him since he shot his lawyer in the face while under the influence.

he is a person of interest in outing CIA agent, Valarie Plame, Karl Rove indited
