11.  Victor Malaba has a net income of $1240 per month. If he spends $150 on food, $244 on a car payment, $300 on rent, and $50 on savings, what percent of his net income can he spend on other things?\n\nA. 300 percent\nB. 64 percent\nC. 43 percent\nD. 40 percent\n       \n    \n12. John and Mary Billings own a condominium with an assessed value of $110,000. If the tax rate is 25 mills per $1.00 of assessed valuation, how much tax do they pay?\n\nA. $2,750\nB. $1,840\nC. $1,420\nD. $1,200\n\nI was thinking that 11.C and 12. B Thanks

11.  If you add up the things Victor is paying for (savings, rent, food, car payment) they total $744.  That means that 1240-744 is what's left = $496.\n\n$496 is 40 percent of $1240.  The correct answer is D.\n\n12.  A mill is one tenth of a cent.  25 mills per dollar is 2.5 cents per dollar.  2.5 cents per dollar times one hundred ten thousand dollars is:  $2750.   The correct answer is A.


I just learned of this group and I wanted to know something about it.

I am not one but i have also been very curious about this and will keep looking at your question for responses\ni wanna wear one of those cute red hats one day too


When you hear it,you can't help but to think of him/her.


In Jamaica how did the government come to be and what affect does it have now?

I am depressed a lot, and feel I would benefit from therapy from a psychologist, but cannot afford it myself. Does anyone know if a GP would refer you to a shrink on the NHS?

Go to your GP and explain how you feel. They should refer you to one of their in-house councilors, which is free. Good luck


again, i asked this earlier, but no liberal responses.\n\nDid these people influence Bush's decision to go into Iraq for oil?\n"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."\n-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003\n\n\n"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."\n-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002\n\n\n"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."\n-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002\n\n\n"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do"\n-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002\n\n\n"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."\n-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002\n\n\n"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."\n-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002\n\n\n"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."\n-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002\n\n\n"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."\n-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002\n\n\n"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."\n-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002\n\n\n"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."\n-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002\n\n\n"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."\n-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002\n\n\n"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop l

And the Bush haters still don't get it....good try though.\n\nYou can not educate a liberal, their mind is made up and nothing you say or do will ever make them think for themselves.\n\nClinton could have had sex with an eight year old on CNN and they wouldn't change their mind "it's a republican conspiracy."


I would like to be able to check my cholesterol like people who have sugar do.

I recommend the Liftestream monitor- it is a regular monitor not a disposable, and studies have shown that it is only 1-2 points off then a regular blood test.  The strips are a little expensive, but it is worth it if you want accuracy at home.  It's about $20 for 6 test strips.  You can read about this model here\nwww.knowitforlife.com


We have a child together and when he is in his mood we would b the swetest guy in the world but then sometimes like d devil does kick him and he just keep quarreling.but we r engage.

You deserve devotion and caring from the father of your children. If he cant be a loving husband then you need to move on. You need to protect your child. \n\nGood Luck and God Bless!!


i am doing my chartered accountancy now in India. please suggest what will i do after completing the course to reap maximum satisfaction out of the profession?

The role of an Accountant may include aspects of the following:-\n\n- Tracking company expenses\n- Writing, error checking, analysing financial documents\n- Identifying problems and inefficiencies with the way the business is run\n- Ensure the correct tax is paid\n\nDepending on the job, the accountant may also perform audits of any client companies.\n\nA management accountant works at the cross-company level, looking at budgets, costs, assets, yearly targets, tracking year to date against and highlighting issues and areas that can benefit from streamlining efficiencies.\n\nYou will need a good head for figures and numbers, enjoy analysis, and will need a BA degree.\n\nJob prospects are good for graduates - lots of large firms hire many trainees every year. Training salary is low but once qualified the rewards can be very good.

i no a gay who wants tobe straight..help nd plz dont say be himself bc those answers r total bullshit to him

A gay person can not be talked into being straight any more than a straight person can be talked into being gay. If you're a straight person reading this, ask yourself honestly, could any amount of prayer or counseling cause you to wake up one day and decide that you prefer the same sex? I didn't think so. Your friend can either go through a lot of misery denying who he is or he can learn self acceptance, perhaps with the help of counseling.


Thats it. I can't take it anymore. I've been through doctor after doctor...dentists charging me out the wazoo for nightguards that don't work...grinding away on my teeth trying to fix my bite. Tried acupuncture. NOTHING WORKS. I have terrible pain every day because of the TMJ. Has anybody had success with a particular kind of treatment?

The most relief I found was with taking Celebrex.


It's something that runs in my family.I've tried E45 cream and aloe vera and propolis.

i have eczema and we find there is no cure for it but i have steroid medication that i use (sometimes i have to take pills but other ointments)  go to your doctor and she can look into prescribing you triamcinolone which is an ointment that helps me a lot.  (try eucerine or aquaphore) also if possible use color and scent free detergent and try dove soap no dryer sheets avoid skin contact with lotions that have scents in them  (shae butter is good for your skin) and since i'm only 15 and i still amaze doctors with how bad my eczema came out  they put me on the wet pj treatment which you get your clothes wet like dunk them in water and ring them out.  then take a bath and soak with nothing don't wash your hair or body and just soak for 15 minutes when you're done put on non scented lotion or your prescribed treatment while you're doing that put your clothes in the dryer to warm them up and then put them on and go to sleep it works wonders because the moisture stays on your skin   \n\neczema is a non curable disease and it is caused by a build up of dead cells since the cells reproduce more rapidly than others peoples skin\n\nlike i said i'm 15 and mine is terrible but that does help your skin.


Here are a few lateral thinking puzzles. See if you can figure them out (without cheating)!\n\nPUZZLE 1:\nA man drives his car up to a hotel and stops. He looks up and realises he's bankrupt. Why?\n\nPUZZLE 2:\nA man lives on the tenth floor of a building. Every day he takes the elevator to go down to the ground floor to go to work. When he returns he takes the elevator to the seventh floor and walks up the stairs to reach his apartment on the tenth floor. He hates walking so why does he do it?\n\n\nFirst one to work it out (or gets the closest) will get 10 points!!

The dwarf from your second question must be retarded or something if he can't find a stick or something to reach the buttons with...hell, he could put a lttle stepstool in there to stand on if it would save a three story climb everyday, no?

Ok i have a friend who gets mad all the time cause this guy she likes, likes me and ive told her over and over again that i dont like him and ive even told him! what can i do now?

The only thing you can do is keep reassuring her that you are not interested in him.  Tell her that she shouldn't get mad at you for something you have no control over.  You can't make him not like you and like her...it's his choice.


doew anyone have any court cases or information that could help argue the constitutionality of indian mascots? we are doing a moot supreme court at school and that is the case we have to argue.

Here's always been my thought: I'm Irish and don't complain that Notre Dame's nickname is the "Fighting Irish."  I don't go around saying my heritage is being mocked or that I'm offended because "people think I like fighting."  It's ridiculous.  If any Native Americans are really concerned about this issues, why not look at poverty on the reservations, poor schooling, etc?  There's so much more to worry about than school mascot names.


it is better to have a nice chating with girl but no one tries to ask about sex , so to get awereness  i try for it

its nice to hear a guy talk about more then sex but sometimes fun to talk about it to see if she wants to have sex with you and how if she likes you how you will treat her  after you all have sex. also we like to be listened to as well.


most people always worring how they look when it dont really matter at all. its like most people want others to talk about them and say something its just something that i dont understand cause my boyfriend is always worring about what others say its like he's trying to impress others ("girls")

Tough question.  People say you should just be yourself, but once you get to the point where you're trying to enter the professional world, you still have to maintain a certain image.  You don't want to dwell on what people think about you, but you also don't want to look like such a circus freak that no one will hire you, either.  I think you can express yourself with your appearance & still look professional, & it's never too early to start learning how.  I mean, when I go to McDonald's, I don't want the person behind the counter to have hunks of metal all through his or her face.  Talk about making me lose your appetite, & that's one thing the bosses don't want me to lose when I'm there.  So, don't worry about what your peers think.  Worry about the people who matter, like your parents, boss, & even your teachers (who can write you good reference letters for college).


I always enjoyed drinking Rolling Rock and felt that it was the anti-Bud.  Now that RR has been bought out, I feel like Luke Skywalker has sold out to the Evil Empire

Yes, I am saddened by this news.  I went to college just down the road from the Rolling Rock brewery, so I consider it to be my alma mater beer.  In my opinion, Rolling Rock that isn't made in Latrobe isn't really Rolling Rock.


I have been unemployed for 2 months.  I hate not working.  I'm staying with friends because I can't afford to live on my own while I'm not working.  I can't seem to find a job in my chosen career.  If I suck it up and get a crappy job for minimum wage, I'll have to stay with the friends until I can get something else 'cuz it's not much better than unemployment.  But is job hopping worse than unemployment?  Anything temporary job I get would be just that, temporary.

Have you put in for unemploymen? If not, do so immediately. Then get down to the unemployment office and use their resources to help your job search. Here we have computers, copiers, and free want-ad copies.\n\nAlso, don't sneer at temp positions - a lot of companies to temp-to-hire as a way to vet their new-hires. If they don't work out, they let them go. If they work out, they hire them permanently.\n\nAlso, depending on what your speciality is, start contacting head-hunters. DON'T go to the ones that charge you, go to the ones that make their money from the companies. I got a year contract-to-hire that way just recently after being laid off over a year ago and unable to find a job.


Is WWF a stunt or a real game show? what the players would get it from? Any bodys life damaged means who is responsible?

I find that I can take some of it literally and some figurativly and make it say whatever I want it to. Like did you know that Jesus digs booze and hates businessmen and ministers. How do you twist the bible to fit your agenda? Any suggestions?

Sure, take a course in liberal theology, then you can discount all of the teachings you don't like or put them in a cultural context so that it seems like the eternal Word of God is either a figurative myth or it doesn't really apply to YOU at this point in time.\n\nThen you can join all of the other people who are on the highway to Hell and have a merry ride until you find out that it ends at a cliff overlooking the Lake of Fire!\n\n"Enter by the narrow gate.

I want to invest in stock market with a certain amount so my money will replicate. I want someone knowledgable or some with expertise on stock market to help me with this.

The first thing you need to do is read.  Ben Graham's the intelligent investor is a good place to start and then look at books on Warren Buffets methods.  Dont do momentum investing or day trading its to risky and the commisions will kill your returns.  The best way to go is value investing all the way.  I usually look intially for companies with 15 percent return on equity for at least 5 years and a p/e ration of between 5 and 15.  Also look for a history of positive earnings.  Thats real basic and then you will need to learn to read income statements, balance sheets, and understand cash flow and stuff but thats someplace to start.\nIf you dont have an ira you should get one a roth ira is best if you qualify.  I recommend putting your ira in mutual funds and vanguard is by far the best company.  Their expense ratios are way lower than other companies and this will pay off big in the long run.  Well, I hope that helps.  Good luck.


Biblical source (these verses are also contradictory, why?):\n\n"The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father..." -- Ezekiel 18:20\n\n"I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation..." -- Exodus 20:5\n\nSo why are children four generations away being punished for crimes of their ancestors?  Does these seem right to you?

Dude, if you would have read two verses earlier, you would have answered your own question:\n\n 18"As for his father, because he practiced extortion, robbed his brother and did what was not good among his people, behold, he will die for his iniquity. \n\n 19"Yet you say, 'Why should the son not bear the punishment for the father's iniquity?' When the son has practiced justice and righteousness and has observed all My statutes and done them, he shall surely live. \n\n 20"The person who sins will die The son will not bear the punishment for the father's iniquity, nor will the father bear the punishment for the son's iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself.

You'll be OK, being jittery is all part of being pregnant too, you've been given too much to cope with all at once; just think of that baby  and how proud you'll be. But ..... put yourself first, others will go on and on about the babies health but you have to be OK too.


it funny but the only people who ask me out are gemini.I know virgo and gemini are not compatible help.

I ask a simple question and it's either your being told your bragging (which you were not trying to do), or they don't like your question just because you spelled something wrong!\nThey cuss at you  and speak in all caps to yell at you! It is not right or being polite! We should all be fair and treat all people with respect! So why do they still do it? Does it give them pleasure to hurt someone or to belittle them? Do they even think about what they are saying before they say it? What happened to the saying, "If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all"? I just want an honest answer with no caps or cussing! Thank you for your time!


An emotional affair to me is being in love with someone else. A physical affair is just that, physical.

Emotional is far worse than physical.  A spouse may go through a period of weakness - and seek outside physical contact - but that betrayal does not in any way mean that he/she has stopped loving their spouse - they just have a period of weakness --- However when you get involved emotionally outside the marriage, that means something else again ---- many spouse that cheat confuse emotional attraction and just physical attraction --- and the spouse may be temporarily ( 1 day 1 week or months) "addicted" to the outside influence that they think is emotional when it is only passion for physical contact with someone else --- In time a spouse that cheated will return and the love he/she has for their spouse remains ----  Love in a marriage means MUCH more than physical contact -- and that is not to minimize the hurt and brtrayal caused by a spous that cheats ---- but cheating by and of itself DOES NOT need to mean the end of the marriage ---- obvioulsy, there was something missing in the marriage for the betrayal to occur

what was kurt's house address, and what happened to the rest of his band? did they go their own ways and form new bands or what?

Not sure on the address of the house.\n\nKrist Novoselic is mostly involed in politics these days. For awhile he was very active in JAMPAC (Joint Artists and Music Promotions Political Actions Committee) and during the election year was a delegate for John Kerry.\n\nDave Grohl (the drummer) went on to form The Foo Fighters. They have earned much success and while Grohl played the drums for the recordings, his main role in the band is lead singer. He also started a spin-off heavy metal band named Probot as well as drummed on many Queens of the Stone Age songs.

I used to work at a computer store and we repaired a lot of laptops that had the exact problem. We usually charged anywhere from 100-200 to fix it because tearing most laptops apart is a real pain.\n\nYou should be able to take it to a mom and pop computer shop (not the local geek squad) and if they're any good should be able to resolder and fix the contacts.\n\nIf its under warranty just have Toshiba fix it but if its more than 4-5 years old don't bother.

President Bush is patriotic, honest, sincere person. No president is popular during turbulent times of national disasters caused by terrorists. His is human. He is doing his best for this country and humanity. Democrats hate him for only political reasons. They want to grab the power in the coming election.

He's my bud, a fellow Texan.  I voted for him twice and still stand by him.  I am a little miffed about his stance on the illegal situation and I want him to be tough on this.  But I have been thinking and I feel that he has sincere compassion for these people.  He's in a very tough spot.  Actually, he's been in a tough spot since election day in 2000!  Poor guy has been plagued by everything imagineable.

if (3 ohms)  6  resister r connect in parallel then the effective resistance is

The general formula for finding the equivalent resistance when the resistors are connected in parallel is:\n1/R=1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +.........+ 1/Rn.\nWhere, R=equivalent resistance\n       R1=First resistance\n       R2=Second resistance\n       .............\n       Rn=Last resistance\n    Therefore answer for your question is:\n1/R=1/3+1/3+1/3+1/3+1/3+1/3\n1/R=6/3\n1/R=2\nTherefore, R=1/2=0.5 ohms\nThe formula for finding the equivalent resistance when the resistors are connected in series is:\nR=R1+ R2 + R3 +........+Rn\nWhere the quantities are as above.


sometimes i have pain in my lower abdomen

Pain in the abodmen is usually refered pain from a region of your gut or viscera surrounding it. Pain around the umbilicus is usually associated with appendicitis. As it progresses, the pain shoots downwards and right to your appendix. \n\nHowever pain in the lower abdomen is usually referred to as colicky pain. This could be due to overproduction of gas as a result from bacterial metabolism in the gut. This could be due to problems such as lactose intolerance or indigestion. Stop drinking milk or milk based products and refrain from legumes ie long beans or any kind of beans. IF THE PAIN PERSISTS, REFER TO YOUR PHYSICIAN.

What do hickys signify? And do girls actually like them? I mean what do you girls like when your makin out with someone?

Hickeys are OK as long as they are not going to be in a visible place. hickey's can come across as trashy if they are flaunted about and where most girls like getting them, they don't like showing them off. A hickey is kind of a private thing. When giving a hickey, try not to suck so hard it hurts...the best kind of hickey is the kind that felt good when it is was given. Good luck!


Benin. Burkina Faso, Chad. Congo rep., Ethiopia, Guinea-B issau, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Yeman, and Zambia.\n\n Mexico is High Middle----We all have poor (so don't use that excuse) -We have them here too. But Mexico is not anywhere near these others!!! \n\nSo just because you can jump across into this country illegally-doesn't mean you deserve it more than them. We have laws like you do-follow them. Our poor are not using that excuse  for breaking laws-and they have it bad too.

I agree.  There's no excuse to commit a crime.  If those illegals don't like the way their life in Mexico is, then do something about it and protest to their own govt, not jump the border and protest to ours. The only reason why America is what it is today, that's because of the great heroes back then who fought the war and the great individuals that struggle to make this place a better place to live--through deaths, sweats, extra hard work, and education.\n\nThe illegals can't just take what we already established demand they should equally get the same thing.  If Laws and Procedures weren't established, then this place would be chaotic and corrupted.  \n\nBTW,\n\nPlease protect our borders!\n\nhttp://www.sosborders.com/cgi-bin/sosborders.pl\n\nhttp://www.numbersusa.com


helpful tips to build a good relationship for life?  I have tried twice with no luck, just made the lawyers pockets BIGGER!

holding out in the beginning, is ok.  Relationships that i have had that started out with sex right away has always ended sooner, blast at first but after that, it gets dull. The building blocks for a stable relationship starts out by becoming friends first.  Looking at eachother, respecting eachother and wondering what it will be like when you do have sex.  That anticipation makes it  more special ( and hot) and by doing that each can feel more comfortable and be more open.  This makes the relationship stronger in the long run. Good luck


I honestly know that there are alot of blacks who are out selling drugs but if you honestly think about it society dont want them have anything going for their life. If you go to "the hood" all you will see is bad houses and liqour stores then if you go to the suburbs you will have to look real hard to find a liqour store, and its not like half of black want to be in the situation that they are in they grew up like that and thats all that they know and sometimes all it takes is one good person to change they life.

i think its becuse of the image of the black society that the television, movies(mass media) is projecting. cant explain it too much. have a bad day. maybe ill try to modify this later or by the time i wake up


i installed norton 2006 trial (15 days)how i can use it for longer time?any help available?

If you want to stick with Norton, you have to buy a subscription via the Symantec site. This is normally pretty expensive. I had the trial version of Norton Internet Security and when I went to the Symantec site when my subscription was running out, they wanted £28 for the upgrade plus a further fee for a new subscription to AV updates! Check eBay. In my experience it is cheaper to buy a new Norton package via that route (the genuine product costs between £16-£20) and each new package comes with a year's free updates!


After 8 years of employment 7 direct manager changes and 3 station managment changes I was termninated.  I have been told that this last group of management was restructuring our deparment and found a reason for termination that should have stayed at desk level and not escalated to upper management.  I am 49 years old, on the high end of pay for this department.  The practice had been to replace the people that had been with the company for a while with much younger therefore cheaper employees.  Again, how do I convey this without sounding bitter or that they were not justified with in my dismissal?

It sucks to lose a job after being there for 8 years and really not having a say as to who would be coming in after all the changes, etc.  Stick to the facts.  Leave out the emotional part of it.  All you have to tell them is that you were downsized, right-sized, or restructured out of a job.  Don't talk about the things that were not in your control, like the changes in management or being on the higher end of the pay-scale in the department.  Good luck!


Also does anyone know why the young lady had to leave the task this week , because she was bleeding from the nose and coughing up blood ? what is wrong with her ?

We'll all know tomorrow, but I think it will be Sean.\n\nI wrote a blog entry on Andrea.  The basic jist--  I think it will most likely turn out that she had a nosebleed that was draining down her throat.  There are lots more serious things it COULD be, but I bet that's it.


Before The Rose Bowl they were all in my face about how USC was going to demolish Texas.  They were predicting victories of 20, 30, 40 points or more.  Then Texas goes into their house and wins.  Texas beats almighty USC in Southern California.  Now all they do is cry.  Wah-wah-wah!\n\nNorthern California = wine country\nSouthern California = whine country\n\n"Vince Young's knee was down." "Jamaal Charles fumbled that pass." "The referees didn't put more time back on the clock when the game was over like they did in October so we could beat Notre Dame." Wah-wah!\n\nI'm sure there are some mature Trojan fans that can lose graciously, but most of them are major crybabies.  Can anyone explain this?  Too much success?  Too much press?  Too much sunshine?  Can't stand a little rain?  \n\nI waited 36 years to see Texas win the championship.  I wasn't griping about every bad call that came our way.  The only thing you heard me griping about was Chris Simms.  Not anymore.\n\nHook 'em Horns!

how one can increase his sex libido. is there any technique.

Yes there are many books, health magazines and websites on the subject. Food and diet are one way to improve but regular exercise is another key factor. By regular exercise you need to exercise your penis for up to 30 mins at a time/per day that will allow  you to last longer and keep your penis erect longer. This can also keep you from ejactulating too early as well.\n\nAlternatives probably include little blue pills and artifical methods including tools such as pumps but your best best is just regular exercise, something that is neglected by many males.

I have a PC with windows XP and song files from different sources and used Windows Media Player to burn a CD. I was listening to it on headphones and forgot that a couple of the tunes were recorded really loud and others were soft then nearly blew my brains out when the song came on. How can I get them all at the same volume?

There are two ways:\n1. Use any audio editing software, such as iTunes or Cool Edit Pro. In iTunes it's called 'Sound Check'. It's right on the: Edit - Preferences - Playback, and click on the 'Sound Check' icon. This will adjust the volume ABOUT the same level.\nOn Cool Edit Pro it's located in: Edit - Group waveform normalize, then you can follow the instruction inside.\nThis will also adjust your music at ABOUT the same level.\nThe key word was ABOUT the same level. This method is only practical, but sometimes some songs is still louder than the other, in this case you should go with option...\n\n2. Trust your ears.\nAdjust every track in your CD manually using the most sophisticated sound check ever, your ears!\nThis method will take some time, but it is worth it. You must be patient. Cool Edit Pro is my weapon of choise when it comes to sound editing.\nGo to: Effects - Amplitude - Amplify - Constant Amplification; Then adjust the volume track by track, using your ears as a measuring tools.\n\nGood luck!

Is he gay?  The ONLY reason I ask is because on the last episode he made a comment about calling his "partner" and mentioned a male name.  I may have taken it out of context, but I missed a few previous episodes and wondered if I missed anything.

Could anyone please help me find statistics for minorities in Japan? I mean people who have Japanese passports, for example the Ainu, the Burakumin etc.. Appreciate it.

Japan is surrounded by sea.\nJapanese ancestor came from China, Korea peninsula, from southern islands.etc.\n\nThey had mixed the origins in ancient time and formed Japanese people today.\nWe don't say "Japanese race" usually. We say "Japanese people". cos our society is homogeneous as Japanese. I think it is hard to recognize who is Japanese race. so we say we are "Japanese (people)".\n\nHowever, there were several minorities in some part of Japan.\nAinu and Ryukyu people (Okinawan) are famous.\n\nAinu\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ainu_people\n\nRyukyu people (Japanese do not say Ryukyuans)\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryukyuans\n\n\nJapan is close to Russia as well. So if you visit northern part of Japan, some ppl's face is like Caucasian. However they also mixed with Japanese. They didn't form minority group.\n\n\nsee also Japanese.\n\nJapanese people\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_people\n\n\nOf course there are many Chinese and Koreans live in Japan.\nHowever they usually keep their nationality and passport.\nYour question is "Japanese minorities", not "minorities in Japan". so I didn't add them to my answer.\n\nAinu and Ryukyu people (Okinawan) hold Japanese passport because they are Japanese (I don't know how they feel.).\nToday the Ryukyu islands is called Okinawa prefecture of Japan.\n\nIn the data in 2000, foreigner in Japan was 1.03%. It means the other 98.97% is Japanese.


i wear size 38 back in shanghai.. \nbut i dont know what size i should wear here in sydney..???\nplease help!


The speaker has no parliamentary vote (except in rare instances where a casting vote is required). Given that he is nevertheless an MP, doesn't this leave his constituents under-represented?

As you said, if it comes down to a crucial vote, the Speaker has the decisive vote.\nOtherwise, there is a system in place that is called "pairing off".\nThis means that an unwritten agreement allows members of the opposite parties to "refrain" as opposed to "abstain" from voting, on a one-to-one basis.\nThis usually takes place in cases of illness or work elsewhere, when they are not able to vote.\nIt works very well.\nBut in a case of a very close vote, it has been known,on a number of occasions, for an MP to be taken from hospital in an ambulance, in order to cast his/her vote.


I think that is nasty than ppl admit to it especially the boys they r like so proud...and when they pee outside...i think this is nasty...What does everyone else think?

That is a male thing, I for one certainly don't do it cause it's disgusting. If we want or need to pee, then we should use the toilet which is what it was designed for, not the bath or shower! Yes, you're right, it is nasty.


Philip Seymour Hoffman is probaby the greatest actor of our time, and deserves to be up there with some of the all time greats. Anyway, how did you like this movie? If you haven't seen it and you are into cainos or gambling, or even banking you have GOT to see this movie. It is unreal, and the crazy thing is that I think it is a true story!!! Anyway this is one of those kinds of movies that most people never heard of and was curious if I am the only one that thought it was great.

its not too bad, i really like his work with p.t.anderson and t.solondz\n\nthe only two i haven't thought were as good were flaw and love liza, although he did a great job.  story wasn't the best (which i'm guessing is what will go down in mi3.) \n\ni agree though--i think he is pretty decent as well....definately one of my faves. \n\ni put him up there with kevin spacey, who has made some decently bad movie choices, but his performances within them were really great.

I think instead of getting handy cap parking they should get the farthest spots and not take those stupid motorized carts everywhere, etc.

We live in the time of ( Poor Me ) . Its not that they wanted a free check and parking place because they are fat. Thats just the only thing they could think of to convince the govt. to get it. I think I am going to try and get the same by saying my teeth need some work. Everybody is getting everything they can for nothing. Good Question I agree.


When he breaks up with me, all he does is stalk and tell me off, cries and states how much he loves me and promises to change.. then he states as to how much better he is than me.. and will not go away... I had to get my phone number changed as he kept flooding my voice mail... I had to switch email accounts as he kept sending me nasty notes on how he has all of these new girlfriends that want him... But yet, he wants to marry ME and is anxious for me to have his children!!!! \n\nI just don't know how to get clear of this guy... I'm totally fatigued by all of this.. he is so jealous and possessive that I ended up losing a scholarship and ended up with two F's... (and here I only took 5 courses that semester). Then I had to give up my job (as we worked together) as he was jealous of me talking to co-workers... \n\nI have caught him in a bunch of lies.. he tells ppl that he pays my bills, but yet he doesn't. Tells ppl that I want his children.. EWW\n\nAnd I still can't get clear of him..

if you have any of the messages (e-mail and phone) take them to the police....(if you don't its ok but its good to have that as evidence) ask to get a restraining order put on him. they will give him a warning and issue the order telling him he cannot contact you in any form or he will be arrested...make sure to tell them you fear for your life to expedite the procedure...

as a 18 year old i had signed a contract with fitness club...the salesperson had lied or misrepresented something in the contract.  i wanted to cancel but they would not allow it......so, as 18 year old, i just ignored the importance of signing the contract and did not pay my debt not knowing my credit would be affected.  they had sent it to collections, but i just ignored the debt since i felt conned by the club.  i lived with that bad credit to my name for a few years...it cause me alot of inconvenience.  i had reestablished my credit to 700+ with a couple 0 balance credit cards along with a car payment which is almost paid for.  just recently, a credit agency has been calling about the collection item i had 12 years ago.  what are my obligations to them?  can they take any actions against me? its not like i like to cheat my debt, i felt i was a victim in my case at the time as an 18 year old.

It sounds like the collection agent purchased your debt from the creditor.  The do it all the time, and they depend on harrassment to get you to pay.\n\nFirst, you do NOT have to deal with a collection agent.  Send them a Cease and Desist letter.  That will stop them from bothering you.\n\nNext, read up on the Statute of Limitations (see the link below). All states have them, and none of them are longer then 10 years.  What it means is that you no longer have a legal obligation to pay the debt.  If the creditor files a lawsuit against you, file a motion to dismiss based on the SOL, and the judge immediately dismisses it!\n\nThe way I see it, you have had your credit trashed by these guys for 7 years.  You paid the debt.  If the collection agent keeps pestering you after you sent the cease and desist letter, sue him.

I was told that this pill is a generic vicodine but i dont know what it is

I'm not sure about that tablet specifically, but a vicodine is supposed to be a hydrocodone, a type of pain reliever.


I was studying digital chips and I was trying to understand the problems behind directly connectina CMOS chip to a TTL and how to solve that problem.

TTL is weird in some ways; its range for detecting 'high' and 'low' signals is significantly smaller than that of CMOS. (its low is the same low as CMOS, but its high is only half as high).\n\nSo, if you connected a TTL to a CMOS, it would not work, since the TTL would not be able to push a "high" signal through.\n\nOn the other hand, a CMOS -> TTL works well, since a CMOS high is way higher than a TTL high, and there is no such problem.\n\nThe issue with that is no one wants to go from CMOS -> TTL,  the only use of such a conversion would be TTL -> CMOS, if you were to upgrade old equipment for example. There exist special chips that bridge the gap, but I forget the name (sorry).


you are in the  restaurant and you notice that someone is grasping his neck what will you do?

First of all, people really DO turn blue when they're choking. If they are NOT coughing, then you should help. If they are coughing, they are just fine. Let them cough it up. I would perform the Heimlich Maneuver. Read about it online and take a first aid class. It's very easy to perform and works quite well. It can even be used on newborns.


I want to make a document starting from a "blank sheet".  I do not have Word, Excel or ANYTHING to do this with.  I have tried OpenOffice & it will not open.  What can I use?

I recommend you get http://www.textpad.com I use this for EVERYTHING and Im a IT Tech and Web Programmer. You can use it as a word pad, you can develop on it and sync with your JAVA classes for compilation. Its the perfect writing tool.

I want a science answer, and try to be specific

Most fishes do have a 'tongue'. Fish tongues however do not resemble the muscular tongues of humans. The tongue of a fish is formed from a fold in the floor of the mouth. The tongue of the lamprey can be protruded from the mouth. It has horny teeth and is used to rasp flesh from its prey. Most fishes however cannot protrude their tongues. \n\nThe tongue and inside walls of the mouth of the Cottonmouth Trevally, Uraspis secunda, are brilliant white. \n\nSeveral species of parasitic crustaceans (isopods of the genus Ceratothoa) are known as tongue biters. These parasites are sometimes seen on the floor of a fish's mouth 'replacing' the tongue. Current evidence suggests that the tongue is pierced at the base by the pereopods (walking legs) of the isopod, resulting in it eventually being physically detached, or atrophying and then dropping off. \n\nSome species of tongue biters feed on the host's blood and many others feed on fish mucous. Tongue biters do not eat scraps of the fish's food. Most evidence indicates that these isopods do not kill the host.

I believe it simply gained popularity with the increase in popularity of West Coast Choppers, and the whole biker movement. Here is a link to a picture of their logo...                                       http://www.american-store.nl/west_coast_choppers.htm


A boy in my class is my best friend (%), and I like his best friend (*), but now my guy best friend likes me (%), I don't know what to do. My best guy friend is like my brother, and if he asks me out, I don't want to crush his heart and our friendship.

I'm a guy, so trust me with this answer. Tell him how you really feel, but DON'T ignore him or act awkward when you're around him. This will only hurt him more. Establish the fact that you're JUST friends, but continue to give him attention and treat him like the best friend he is. Maybe even introduce him to another friend of yours to get his mind off you.


Ok,i have a friend i met a year ago. I used to have a crush on him when we met, but he said i wasnt the type of girl for him (his lost, jaja) anyways time has passed and now we are like best friends, he moved and we dont see each other much, but he used to write to me often. Though i dont have the feelings for him anymore, and he knows that, he came to my house about 3 weeks ago and mmm we had something (sex), just as friends (i know its weird, but is was cool). I dont have any doubts for my feelings, he is my best friend. But mmm after that he has been very distant with me, i know he is not mad, because we are still in contact....once a week he writes me a 20 word email saying he is fine.....The last email he sent was telling me that he isnt going out with the girl he liked, but he made it very clear that he was still single and available.....he mention this twice in the 20 word email....He hasnt said anything about meeting us again...but is there a reason that i should worry about?

he probly feel that he made a mistake and is scared that he doent want to lose you as a friend

Should I be concerned at the fact that I haven't met my boyfriends mom...let alone anyone in his immediate family? I mean, we're 100% happy. There's never a question of cheating. TRUST ME. But we were friends first from march 05 to sept 05. And have been together Since Sept.....what do you think? I mean he's met a couple of people in my family...sooo Is there anything for me to worry about?  Thanks!

I don't think so.  Maybe he is afraid you will not like his family or maybe he thinks is family is embarassing.  I don't think there is anything to worry about as long as the two of you are happy together.\n   It would be okay to ask him why though and find out the answer from him.  All we can do on here is postulate guesses when only your boyfriend knows the real answer.\nGood luck\npeace and love


I found out my ex was cheating on my space and i called him and asked him what the hell was going on and he said that he liked both of us and told me to give him a week to decide!!! wat is up with that?

Jocks are alpha-males. They can do almost anything and still get enough sex from a willing partner......you or someone else.\n\nNice girls are ruined by this behavior and will really suffer if they get stupid and marry one of these jerks.\n\nBut it happens thousands of times every year.\n\nJocks don't HAVE to cheat.......they LIKE to cheat. You put up with it and the other women put up with it......so you only get what you ask for.\n\nJust PLEEEEEEZE don't blame all guys for what jocks do.


Why is that after a year relationship with my ex-fiance its such a bad thing to move on and get into another relationship. He did it... Well he did it 2 days before he broke up with me, but thats beside the point. But why is it that everyone is telling me not to get into another relationship so fast. The man Im with now I have known longer than I knew my ex and he has been my best friend for almost 2 years. I have really always had feelings for him and I wanna see where this goes. But tell me why does everyone keep telling me that its a bad idea. Its not a rebound or anything cause trust me... Im over what happened between me and my ex.. So help me please

its such a bad thing to move on and get into another relationship=said who? dont listen to that idea, if you please all, you please none. follow your heart and mind, it has always the right answer then believe what you have decided and choose to be happy :)


what was you altime favorite date and what did you to do

the first time i went out with a girl i really like, and i could tell she like me too, we were both grinning like idiots, and i finally just grabbed her and tounge kissed her...we went to some really lame open air market that sold furniture, but that didnt matter, what mattered was that we both realized we really liked each other


After all, both require faith...which involves religion... Since CREATION, which requires faith to accept, can't be taught in school,why should EVOLUTION, which also requires faith to accept, be taught? Kinda sounds like a double standard to me. Agree or disagree? Thank You for your thoughtful responses...

Because every twenty years things come back. It's syclical as the correct terms would be for it. And I completely disagree with the first idiot who answered this. I grew up in the 80's and loved it! It was a happy and simpler time and the music was great back then. Not the crap they serve up today, or in the 60's-70's we're absolute jokes.\n\nFrom the politics, all the way down to the crappy clothes and music. You kids today really missed out on a great time in our country. But it's not your fault, you didn't have a choice in the matter or know any better. But believe me, it was so much better back then. Any if you think twenty years back is old, wait till you are actually old in your 80's if you live that long and people tell you your generation is old. What goes around comes around. Long live the 80's !!!

Let's see who can come the closes to who will win the Indianapolis 500 and who comes in second? Do not just go by your favorite-look at their history-cars-owners-practice-experience-past races-time trials and so forth.  Please include some back up information including the above to help support your answer.

Ignoring the misinformation posted by trydave1ce, the Indianapolis 500, open to any qualified driver and car  that meets the technical specifications, I believe the race will be won by either a Panske or Chip Ganassi driver,\nI'm leaning towards Penske's Sam Hornish (he posted a top speed of 228.220 mph during practice on Sunday) to win the race. I believe both the Penske and Ganassi teams have benefited from the switch to Honda engines and I believe Penske has done a better job developing the Dallara chassis. I'll go with Dan Wheldon for second; he's also been fast during practice and I think he has a huge incentive to prove he can perform well for a team other than Andretti-Green.

Note, too,\nthat you'll get other trash in your script file -- for\nexample, any backspaces you type as well as any control\nsequences that you put in your prompt (ie. to control the\nbanner of your xterm).\n\nYou can manually remove them with your text editor\nor you can filter them out with "sed".\n\nThe only catch to using "sed" is that the control-m\ncharacter would normally be interpretted by the\nline driver as a carriage-return (which would end\nthe current line and garble the sed command).\n\nTo avoid that, you need to "escape" the control-m\nby preceding it with a control-v.  In the following\ncommand, there would only be two characters typed\nbetween the first two slashes.  All it does is\nreplace all control-m characters by "nothing".\n\nsed "s/control-v control-m//" < scriptfile > fixed_scriptfile\n\nWhat you'll see echo'd on your screen will look like:\n\nsed "s/^M//" < scriptfile > fixed_scriptfile


it is the new one out on the market does anyone own one?\nif you do is it a good gun as an anti-bear weapon?\nhow accurate is it? \nis it smooth firing?\nhas it jammed before?

I own an XD .45 ACP.  I have not had any problems with it at all.  I actually shoot better with that than with my Glock 21.  It's a good all around gun.\n\nI think it would be a good gun for self defense, especially against a bear.  The external grip and trigger safeties allow you to carry it fully loaded, but allow for easy "point and shoot" firing if the situation arises.


For the religion believers, can Adam+Eve produce so much? Why are we still seperated by races? Aren't we supposed to be one?\nFor the non-religion believers (scientist), Where does apes come from? If u say evolution, why does the evolution stop at this stage?

origins are hard for small minds to wrap around.  Modern minds are conditioned to getting answers in a few seconds of a soundbite, otherwise they are bored.  Some teenagers still believe in the easter bunny and santa clause. It wasn't Adam and Steve.  Yes, evolution is a process that takes millions of years, not a soundbite of a few seconds. Evolution may seem to have stages, but they never stop. If you don't believe in the concept of evolution, you don't believe in the concept of graduation and may have to get a job at the level of the rest of us apes.

You'll only lose water, so there will be an initial drastic loss, but once you drink water, your body will absorb it again and the weight will come back.  If you don't replenish the fluids, you risk damaging your liver and kidneys along with a constant thirst.  It's not a healthy or lasting diet alternative.

Antioxidants are substances that may protect cells from the damage caused by unstable molecules known as free radicals. Free radical\n damage may lead to cancer. Antioxidants interact with and stabilize free radicals and may prevent some of the damage free radicals otherwise might cause. Examples of antioxidants include beta-carotene, lycopene, vitamins C, E, and A to name a few.\nWhen you have too few antioxidants to counteract your free radicals, significant damage can occur, leading to a variety of chronic degenerative diseases, ranging from stroke and fibromyalgia, to sinusitis, arthritis, vision problems, and even Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. A poor diet, cigarette smoking, environmental pollutants, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun also increase the free-radical load, creating a situation known as "oxidative stress."

Antioxidants are essential to maintaining a healthy body.  I don't think you would actually know that you are low in antioxidants itself but if you were low in certain vitamins I'm sure your body will let you know, different signs for different vitamins.  I hope that helps?  Most people aren't concerned about low levels of antioxidants when their body is lacking vitamins.  I think you're more concerned about what vitamins youre body might be lacking.

On how much it would cost to have the sound card in my computer replaced...

When we  love some one we love by all means but after break up where those emotions fly?and even sometime turns into hate

Hmm . . thats a good question \n\nThe answer is that the Love goes no way . . . Its just transformed . . . into hate most of the times. \n\nPeople or mates with broken hearts tend to keep that love in them for a certain period of time. Some take more time and some take less (YES i am talking about the Guys here) \n\nGals in most cases are devastated, thats if they didnt make a MAJOR SCREW (by that i mean like get drunk and sleep with a good frnd of his . . i mean cmmon . . who would belive that story if it has happened to u 2 or 3 times already) . . \n\nGuys, well not all of them forget so easily . . but most of them do. . others sit and analyze the situation . .

hey ya'll. did u guys change ur top 8 on myspace.. how do u change them? and the piks as well.. can anyone help?

Click on "Home" then click "Change Top 8" and move their pictures around. The pics on the top row are in red...those are your current top 8. If you want a different person in your top 8, move one of the pictures that aren't in red to the top row. It will remove the end person in red down to the list of your regular friends. Hopefully this helps. Check out my page if you want. Add me to your friends list! I have more than top 8 because I got a code off the r4wr site.

Be careful about sleeping with someone you work with. If it doesn't work out, it will become very awkward for both of you. I'd say date awhile as friends first, and hold off on the sleeping together until you're both ready to make a long-term commitment.

I have many years of job experience but never got my MBA. Almeda offers to give credit for studies and on the job training.\nDoes anyone know how valuable a title from Almeda U. in Idaho can be?\nPlease only serious answers

Check to see if they are accredited, first off.  If they aren't, don't even bother wasting your money because the degree will not be recognized.  Be very careful of any online school.  The are propriatary (for-profit) and most just want your money and don't offer quality in return.  Look to see if your local state college or university offers an MBA.  Many schools tailor those programs to working adults so people can maintain a job while earning an MBA.  \n\nGood luck!

After heart surgery my husband needs to wear pressure stockings.  They are VERY difficult to put on him. Have any tips?

Pressure stockings are definitely tricky! The best way I can advise is before you put them on, roll them all the way down in your hands and put his toe in. Try to roll them up, stretching the stocking as you go up. Make sure the legs are not damp.  I have heard that putting a little baby powder on the legs beforehand also helps. Once they are on, it is very important to make sure that the stockings are free of wrinkles and don't overlap anywhere up the leg. This assures that the same amount of pressure is being placed on all parts of the leg. Hope this helps!

Under what circumstances will your average life insurance policy not pay a claim for your death?

Life insurance policies are contestable during the first 2 years for suicide and for insurance fraud.  After 2 years, the policy will pay the death claim.\n\nSuicide - during the first 2 years - company will contest claim.  Suicide after year 2, company has to pay the claim.\n\ninsurance fraud - during first 2 years, company can contest. after year 2, claim will be paid.\n\nthe other comments about plane crashes, sky diving, drug abuse are not true, unless fraud was committed to obtain policy in first place, AND you died in first 2 years.


i dont jump based on the time, rather i count the number  of jumps that i do. about how many jump should i do to amount to a substantial work out time?

Time is really based on your fitness level. Maximum rope\njumping time is 30 minutes but if your best is 10 minutes\nthen that is also good. As an individual, you have to see how you feel while you are jumping. Don't over extend yourself if you feel very weak. Push yourself to do one or two more jumps each day. Right now you are doing the best thing. Go by how you feel and count your jumps rather than check the clock however, it is not safe to go over 30mins.


I'm 16.  I've been worried a lot about my weight lately.  I've been stressing and dieting and exercising and stuff.  Because of certain things I'm scared that I might get an eating disorder.  I sometimes feel so guilty when I eat lots of sweets that I cry. \n\nThis is not one of the main things, but... My family was just eating dinner.  I was hungry, but I only ate a few bites of food.  I haven't had much else to eat today.  I was hungry, but I just COULDN'T bring myself to eat more than a few bites.  I don't want an eating disorder, but I realize that some of my behaviours of late are getting there.  What should I do?  I can't talk to anybody about this, because they'll freak out on me.  It's really not that big of a deal.  So what can I do to help myself?

PLEASE talk to someone like a school counselor or doctor. I have had an eating disorder in the past and it SUCKS! From time to time it comes around again and I have to fight it- and its not easy. There is obviuosly something going on inside your head that is causing you so subconciously not want to eat. Try keeping a journal and writing down all your thoughts surrounding this. It will help and sometimes you will write down your own answer. If you need to talk more to me about this please email me- I will respond. I know all to well the dangers both mental and physical of eating disorders and I would hate to see someone else fall prey to this crap! LOL.


Has any one else had this problem? I am a experienced computer user and have tried all the obvious remedies. If you had this problem, where did you get it repaired, and for how much?

Ugh, the monitors are the number one reason I'll never buy a laptop unless I absolutely have to have a portable computer.  Those screens break all the time and all you can do is replace them, and worse yet the factory or an authorized repair shop is the only place to have it repaired at.  And it's pricey depending on how big or new your screen is.  When you buy an extended warranty for your laptop at Circuit City or whatever they charge you extra to protect your screen because of the cost involved.  IT SUCKS!  You can ususally plug your laptop into a regular monitor as well as a normal keyboard and mouse and use your laptop as a "tower" like a regular computer.  You can do that to make the most of your laptop, but when you do get your screen replaced, do it to keep your screen use to a minimum to avoid replacing it again any time soon.


how the counselor advice the family, when a relative death

They help you decide on the details for the funeral and burial (or cremation), the obituary, choosing a casket, arranging for flowers, and who will officiate.  All of this happens at a time when it can be very difficult to make decisions, and "little things" can be easily overlooked.  At my mother's funeral, my sister had forgotten to make copies of the directions from the funeral to the house (where people would be gathering afterward), so the funeral director had someone run off the copies for us.


Am I sick? Depressed? I seriously would sleep forever if i didn't have to keep a job. It's not so much of a "I don't want to get out of bed" thing as it is a "I'm so tired. I think i'll go back to sleep" thing

Babe, obviously you are the one and only sleepy vampire. You should just find a job that requires sleeping.


ok there's this girl and i love her... like seriously and i recently told her. So then like yesterday I was all "wanna go to the movies" and she was all "sure" so then i get there and shes not there yet... then i see her car and she parks like a mile and a half away and i was all ok and she gets out, and the passenger door opens and her freind comes out. and  i was like ok then... so then they were all where is he where is he. and i was like right here. and then they looked at me funny. and then they were all not you! so then i was like who? and they were like "nic" so i was all... ok. Then he gets there and he this pretty boy fag. So then like we are the only 4 in there. And i sit down and then her, then friend, and then nic so we move to be closer and then i end up sitting by him, not her, and when ever a dead body comes on he's like huggin her and stuff so i like didnt say anything the rest of the movie. So now i cant talk to her w/o getting mad and stuff... what do i say to her?

What does it take for you to see that you are being treated like a fool? She doesn't like you and you need to find someone else.


I see many of you complaint because many rich people and bussines men hire immigrants instead of natives, obviously because they dont have to pay them the same money and that way avoid paying taxes, it is clear they dont care about their own people, my question is would do the same if you were they, and what would you do if you were immigrant. whose the fault?\n\njust one thing, i am in mexico, i am not an immigrant and i have never been interested in visiting your country but i understand many people that go illegaly dont have any education nor a decent job, i am not proud of them but i support them because of the big effort they do there for their families.

In today's society, money drives everything else, including moral values, which is why ALOT of business owners (especially if their business is not doing so good) would turn their backs and hire illegal immigrants to reduce costs. \n\nEven though this is highly unethical from one point of view, they will make an excuse for themselves: "These people have nothing better and I am helping them and their families by giving them work."  And so, they will have less of a problem with the ethical side of the issue, which is why they're prone to accept hiring illegal immigrants.\n\nTo answer the rest of your question, If I were in a businessman's place, I would probably try to keep my business running legally. If it has problems, it is not 2$/hour that will turn it into a profitable business. If it's being ran into the ground, there are much bigger problems with the administration of the company than just salaries.\n\nAnd if I were the immigrant, well I don't have much of a choice. I cannot collect welfare from the government, I cannot pay for medical bills, I cannot get a legal job, and I need to eat. If I came to this country, it's because unfortunately I had no chance for a future in Mexico. And thus, I am forced to work for whatever wage is offered, because anything is better than nothing when you're trying to eat.\n\nThere's too many people and issues at fault to blame it on just one. There's the way the government is handling the problem, there's the way our society changed and is ready to stomp over moral values and human lives to gain financial wealth, even the way the businessman's mother raised him could have something to do with his choice between hiring or not hiring an illegal immigrant. There is no clear answer or solution to this, it has been a problem for far too long a time and cannot be solved rapidly.


I'm madly in love with the wrong man.  Wrong because he can pretty much "take me or leave me."  He does nothing to make me feel as if he's interested in me.  It appears to be more of a convienence that anything.  It's been 5 yrs and I desperately want to move on.  HELP!!

The best thing to do is simply face him in person and tell him that you're no longer interested in him and that for the both of your interests to move on to big and better things in life.  Hope this helps you out and may this be a good learning experience for you.  Ciao bella!!!


Also, is that the kind they sell at GNC?

Hoodia is just a new diet pill, like all of the others.  These diet pills like Hoodia, Xenedrine, Metabolife, Hydroxycut all have a great deal of ingredients which are not safe.  The majority of their ingredients are herbal and plant based but there safety and long term effects are just getting to be discovered.  And when taken in large doses, these ingredients are not safe.  Also, many diet pills are not quality assured, so what is on the label is not necessarily in the pill.  You should be highly cautious of such supplements.  Anything that claims loosing inches in a very short amount of time, or guarantees results or your money back is a gimmick-just be aware, and be safe.  Before taking such supps, you should know your family history of heart disease and stroke because these supplements will increase your risk for these.  Proper nutrition and exercise are your best bets.


Okay, I've taken Proactiv for about 5 weeks now.  I haven't seen a big improvement.  At times, my face looks clearer, but for the most part  it doesn't.  And according to some people, it just looks completely worse.  So Now, I'm considering visiting a dermatologist.  Should I visit them, or wait out the process of Proactiv?

First of all i ve to ask u why u take proactive,for treatin acne or something else,and whom advise u to take that ur self or ur G.P ....if u have acne and wanna treat that its better if u go to a dermatologist cuz we have many kind of acne and every one of them has his own treatment and drug....\nGood luck

I've noticed several approaches that are common in this forum.\nQuestions:\n*Ask disengenuous questions, to get a rise out of someone, confuse them or make them look foolish.\n*Ask questions with a particular answer in mind.\n*Ask thought provoking question that have no one correct answer. \n*Ask questions that seek information only. "Just the facts please"\n\nAnswers:\n1)Provide a straightforward peresentation of one own point of view.\n2)Explain a little, anticipate a lot.\n3)Attack the person or sincerity of those you disagree with.\n\nI'm not trying to advocate a specific approach. I'm just curious about the motivation behind each. I also wonder which approach the writers would consider most effective to meet their personal goals. (Even if that is to rattle cages or cause angry or closed-minde reactions in others) several

There are, of course, many humourous and also silly questions. But the interesting part of "Answers" is to ask something you really want to know, be it a clear answer or just opinions, and thus get inputs which are interesting or of help to you.\n\nTalking about my experience, I have asked several questions about something I wanted to know precisely, and got  the right answer, which was really helpful and I appreciated.\n\nAs far as the answer one gives to other's questions is concerned, for me its the same procedure. To me it makes no sense at all to want to impose one's opinion to others. For such purpose you would need a chat procedure having a dialogue, and not just your answer to the question.

Should you look for find a friend and build on to that relationship or should you go right for looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend.

Single is good for awhile. My guy friend reminded me of the concept of "dating". You are going back out into the social scene and just meeting new people. Forming a friendship is the most healthy way to building a romantic relationship. Your giving yourself and your friend, time to really honestly, get to know each other inside and out. Jumping in is never healthy. If your jumping in for the wrong reasons (lonliness, a "need" for a mate), then you will soon find your relationship ending in a firey crash and burn. Practice patience with your new friend. It's ok to be attracted to him/her but keep a level head and don't let your emotions rule your decisions. I am experiencing this very phenomena about building a friendship first. Together, we are keeping level heads, (even though he is just so dang hot), and it is much more fulfilling and healthy, than any relationship I've had before. The communication is great, we understand and accept where we stand with each other, and we're keeping the door open for the possibility of a wonderful, romantic, relationship to develop. I admit, it's not easy. I am still learning the whole patience thing myself. But this is so good, and healthy. I wish you luck, and hope that you will not jump in to something out of desparation. Be positive, be patient, and ask God to help. God Bless you friend.

I have been  with my boyfriend for 8 months and i am 16. I want to have a kid with him so i know he will love me and be with me. what can i do

First, read what you just wrote.\nI want a kid so he'll love me.\nI want a kid so he'll be with me.\nThat is putting alot of pressure on that kid. And if married people with kids don't stay together, why do you think he'll stick with you? It'll get hard and he'll run. Did you ask him how he feels? Does he want a kid right now? Yeah, its your uterus, but its his sperm! Its not fair or right to try and trap a guy with a kid. And speaking of, you are still a kid. I know 16 year olds don't like to hear that, but its true. I thought I was grown. I had a kid at 18 and married the Daddy. I found out just how much of an adult I wasn't REAL FAST. If you love yourself, wait till you turn 18 and finish highschool. If you love him, give him the chance to become an adult and decide what he wants. If its real love, he'll still be around at 18 and you can marry, THEN have the kid. Usually, teenage fathers HATE the girlfriend that got preggy cause they aren't ready to be Dad's. Do you really wanna take that chance?

DON'T YOU DARE SAY PRESIDENT BUSH. I will completely disregard your opinion. He has done nothing comparable to the traditional favorite presidents like JFK, Lincoln, Washington. \n\nI'm not sure who my favorite president would be. Definitely one of our earliest ones. It may well be between Jefferson, Washington or Lincoln. Some people honestly don't realize how important Washington was in setting many important precendents for future presidents. \n\nAll I can say is that my favorite people in all of American history are Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Nicholas Biddle (famous master of the [first] Bank of the United States before Jackson killed it). \n\nI'd just like it to be known that I am liberal and don't approve of Alexander Hamilton's ultraconservatism at all. But as it was, he appealed to me in many other ways: he was an excellent writer and a genius (financially and otherwise). \n\nAnd yourself?

I would have to go with FDR.  Apparently many people of his time agreed with me, because he is the only President to have been elected four times. He served just over 12 years.  He brought the country out of depression, creating many jobs, such as the TVA and the CCC (Tennessee Valley Authority and Civilian Conservation Corps.) He was a rich man who was truly for the poor people. I think he is just about the greatest President we have ever had, with the possible exception of the first George.\n\nOutside of Presidents, I would have to say Martin Luther King.  He was such a great man.  He worked so hard to establish civil rights and to work out good relations between the races.  I think the worst thing that ever happened to race relations in this country was his assassination.

The router has inputs for the the modem in and for a printer. Can I hook up the printer to the router and then print from my labtop to the printer? That is, the printer info goes wirelessly to the router and then the router through a wire gets info to the printer to print? Is that how it works?

yes ... set up a workgroup .. then you will be able to print wirelessly ... and another thing ... its a LAPTOP ... but ... make sure your printer is network capable ... have fun ...


Bush Signs $70 Billion Tax Cut Extensions, do the tax cuts,  help middle-class American families, or widen the gulf between the rich and poor?\n\nFor a family making between $40,000 and $50,000, the cuts will mean an additional $46.

Not at all.  In order to spur economic growth it is best to give tax cuts to the poor.  They will spend it all which enlarges the econmy.  Giving tax cuts to the rich does not do this.


something just showed up on the inner corner of my upper eyelid... it's kind of like a bloodblister, that general coloring, but it's not raised or anytying. i'm a little bit concerned with the new contact lens infection stuff going around (i'm a contact wearer)... any ideas?

I don't really know what a bloodblister is so if you think it might be an infection you should really go and see an optometrist, not a doctor because they don't have the equipment to check out your eyes properly. I alsp wear contact lenses and I suffer from dry eyes and sometimes I get little spots (they look like little pimples) on my bottom eyelid among my lashes or on the inside corner of my eye due to blocked tear ducts. I stop wearing my lenses and get drops but also try to clean out the ducts using hot water and a cotton bud and try to squeeze out the mucous like stuff. It really isn't pretty but it works.
