And what brought the Universe into the state from which the Big Bang arose?

No one knows.  There are theories.\n\nI find the articles in Scientific American to be fascinating reads on the theories and models that physists and cosmologists are developing.  Check out your local library and read, read, read.\n\nIn particular, this article seems to offer information on the latest thinking regarding the state of before the "Big Bang":\n\nThe Myth of the Beginning of Time, May 2004\nhttp://www.sciamdigital.com/browse.cfm?sequencenameCHAR=item2&methodnameCHAR=resource_getitembrowse&interfacenameCHAR=browse.cfm&ISSUEID_CHAR=CB826BAE-2B35-221B-6E2587F29CF2C88A&ARTICLEID_CHAR=CB9AD5CD-2B35-221B-6E241183ECE7749E&sc=I100322\n\nThe other really interesting one is:\n\nMisconceptions about the Big Bang, March 2005\nhttp://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?articleID=0009F0CA-C523-1213-852383414B7F0147&sc=I100322\n\n\nThe universe is too wonderous a thing to limit your thinking about it.


how is this electron configuration lower in energy than the doubled bonded configuration?\n.O-O. instead of O=O

Oxygen atoms like to form two bonds with other atoms. They will be more stable that way. It is related to the outer shell of electrons(valence electrons). Individual oxygen atoms have 6 valence atoms and would prefer to have 8(it's called the octet rule!)


i want to do a ski season in november and want recomendation of good resorts or specific jobs with good benefits? im a 22 year old female!

Ski hill jobs arent really known for benefits.  The benefit is you get to ski a lot more than anyone else.  Good resorts- depends what you want.  Jackson Hole like other guy mentioned is known for being one of the best expert hills... Whistler is a mecca for skiing, got a lot of everything... Utah gets hammered with snow (Alta, Snowbird)... Colorado has big resorts and expensive crowds (Vail, Aspen, Breckenridge)...


Will he improve accountability in government? How about that GST? What are your predictions?\n\nIn general are you happy with the election results and with a minority government?

Well, his first task will be to get a majority. As we have seen minority governments can be defeated on the slightest whim. Then he can start to tackle the problems.

see md and go to a physical therapist. increasing the strength of the muscles around the joint will allow them( the muscles) to absorb more compressive forces; thus taking stress off the joint. I have seen many people who have had great results from glucosamine but see MD first! you may have a condition that could be made worse by taking a herbal supplement.


He won't tell me over the phone or in letters because everything is monitored.  He is in Salinas Valley State Prison in California servin 6 years

If he is in prison already then it wont matter if he tells you what he is in for. They already know, they put him in there. The only way that will make a difference is if there is more to the story than he wants them to know. You can find out why hes in there according to the court records by searching the california court district court records which are public knowledge and free to browse. One surefire way is to go to the local courthouse in that area and ask to see the court records for that county/area and give his name. They will charge you for copies in the pennies. Also you may be able to do a search to find the official california district court records site. There will be some that will try to charge you. Dont pay there is a free one out there somewhere. It might be hard to find though. In Oklahoma the site is odcr.com "oklahoma distric court records.com" I dont live there anymore but thats what it is and I know that every state has one. You will find a link similar to offender lookup or violator info and click on it to type in and search names.


if men could handle stress more than women, they would be the ones giving birth. just think about it, what is more stressful than weight gain, mood swings, aching feet and backs, etc.? nothing. men get off easy and try to say women can't handle stress because we are emotional. btw that is our way of handling stres.


we have builders/ developers coming into our twon and throwing up homes with a lick of brick that will not have much durability that brick homes have.  The will also bring down the property values of the homes in the surrounding neighborhoods.  HELP!

Find out what city council and the mayor are doing about this situation, call them.  If they're not doing anything then organize community members, call a town meeting to speak about yours and others concerns of the buildings going up.  Get a petition of the parties who wish to be involved or are just in support of your views.  On the petition, ask for phone numbers and or emails or even addresses in case you need to raise funds to support your concerns.  Seek out a Political Analyist or lobbyist to represent your concerns, this part might take money.  If you are a small/medium sized town then just take your petition to the mayor or city council members to address the situation and pass laws accordingly.  If you feel the mayor and council are not doing a good enough job, organize the members of the community to organize a protest at the next city meeting.\n\nFor further inquiries and questions email me at\nwatty_ofthe_wattykins@yahoo.com

Paper towels or the electric hand dryer?

Electric hand dryers are environmentally better, but they're also more sanitary.


Should not all children at the age of 18 (or earlier if they drop out of school) be forced to serve their country in some capacity? This way, everyone’s children would be able to experience the war in Iraq first hand. No exemptions. No deferments. If this were a 2 or 4-year deal then after the first cycle everyone would be the same from then on.\n\nAs a Vet I feel this would take care of the issue of the war in Iraq and future wars. The yellow republicans will surly blast me on this one.

All children should be taught to and made to serve HUMANITY not just their individual countries.

i want to buy a home, but i can only get a loan for the amount of home, but we need 10,000 to buy refrig.,furniture,etc. but don't want a 5 year loan to pay off $10,000 because then \nwe'd probably be paying the same monthly amount as our mortgage payment and we can't afford that. any advice?

Try to get a consumer loan at MBNA (www.mbna.com), or bank of america (www.bankofamerica.com) and they usually have loans for that reason and amount. MBNA has gold consumer loans and you will be paying about $200-300 a month for a $10,000 loan. Also check local banks in your area. They may be able to work with you to find an affordable amount. If not try to do little by little shopping and try consignment stores until you get full approval.


how can Angel be locked to a closed space? or die?

Celestials is the best name for angels... they are not all messengers to humankind.  People do not become angels when they die.  \n\nElect angels will never die.  Fallen angels do not die as the human body dies.  Fallen angels can go to hell, and in the end they will all get cast into the lake of fire.  No one really goes out of existence, not humans or celestials.  unbelievers and fallen angels will suffer in the lake.

What is Denvers all time record at home in the AFC Championship game?

THE BIG PICTURE\nThe Steelers survived this time, but they have to craft a go-for-the-jugular game plan next week at Denver, because getting up 21-3 and then taking the air out of the ball nearly proved disastrous against Indianapolis. Cowher's Steelers have only lost once in his entire tenure when they've had a lead of at least 11 points in a game, and Pittsburgh is known for putting teams away with the running game once it gets up. But the Steelers are going to need every point they can get in next week's AFC title game, because the Jake Plummer-led Broncos can score in a hurry, as the Patriots found out first-hand on Saturday night. You've played it safe in past AFC Championship Games, Bill Cowher, and most times you've been sorry.

Anyone know any good ways to fade and or remove stretch marks?

cocoa butter stick is the best thing ive found.....pregnant woman use it....my fiance used it during her and they completely vanished....remember it takes a little time


Yes I do think he is by a mile. He is so good, my favorite goal of his was when he was with Everton and scored that late goal against Arsenal, even though I am a Manchester United fan. My second favorite was his volley for United against Middlesbrough in the F.A cup quarterfinals last year. But Robinho is closing the gap.

A friend just recently told me she was raped and she was impregnated but had  miscariaged. What should I say or do? She doesn't seem like she is hurting but I know she is.

This is a very sad situation.  It's hard to know what to do.  I guess the best you can do is to show your friend that you care about her.  This can be done in a number of ways, such as those suggested by the previous answerers, or just by hugging her, telling her you love her, and doing nice things for her.  I'm sure you'll figure out a way.


The bible says not only is it a sin to eat unclean meat, which I can prove is still an issue, but it is a sin to even handle the carcuss of an unclean animal.  I quit my job 3 months back (Quiznos Subs) because I felt like a hypocrite serving ham, and then there is the whole handling ham situiation. Does anybody know weather it is sin to handle unclean meat as long as I'm wearing gloves.  For the Record I'm a Seventh-Day Adventist...we believe the bible in the whole.  I might say when in doubt do without, but this is really based on a technicality, the definition of that verse hangs in the balance, we can't just delete it!  WHAT DO YOU THINK?  I'm trying to decide weather to go get my job back or remain unemployeed seeking a job...Job hunting can get very depressing.  Your opionions would be VERY helpful!

If you have a problem with it or feel uncomfortable, it probably isnt a good idea to get that job back anyway. as for gloves, that is an article of clothing, is it not? clothing rules are in there. look 'em up. (the clothing has to be washed and such)\notherwise, no i don't think its a sin. if you are so tied up in legality that you miss the point of a relationship with God in Christ, then you should re-evalue. That is what Jesus got mad at the Pharisees for. It isn't what goes into your mouth that makes you unclean, but what comes out. but, i don't suggest you go eat it. i try not to, but honestly it is pointless to argue about that if you aren't keeping ENTIRELY kosher anyway. Pray about it. Read your Bible. God will answer your question satisfactorily for you. Go by your Bible. \nIn the meantime, get a job. ;D


They were American citizens forced to leave there homes and live in a prison like situation when they did nothing wrong. Don’t we have some kind of law protecting us. If not that is scary it could happen to anyone.

I am a history teacher and could give you a laundary list of reasons and history behind the whole event, but I will leave you with this . . . they are the government.  If the U.S. government feels there is a threat to the interests of the nation, it is going to act upon that by whatever means necessary.


this guy i like only wants to go out with better looking girls. i try to get his attention,but it never works

If he's interested in "better-looking girls" then he's probably better looking himself.  Why don't you go after a not-so-good-lookin guy and you won't have that problem.  There's many out there, trust me :)


if you start with 10 lbs., how many sets should you do, how many per set, and when should you move up to 15 lbs.? And when you get to 15, how many sets and how many per  set an so on.

The Most important thing to remember is drink lots of water.  You have to "shock your muscles" dont do the same workout over and over, and sporatic variances in intensity really make your muscle react.\nIf your muscle gets used to a certain weight you need to increase it...and in some cases just decrease the weight and do more reps.  This is mainly for getting "cut up".\nOnly you can judge weather or not the weight you are starting at is the right one.

I started a new job about 2 months ago.  One of the first days on the jo this man came in to asked something.  He is friends with my boss.  Since then he only comes in when it's just me working that day. He is friendly and we make small talk.  This last week he visited me (as usual) on my boss' day off.  It started with small talk then lead to more personal stuff like, am I married? Did I have kids? Was I seeing anyone?  \nIt's been bugging me since then and I just want to know what others think.  Was that his way of seeing if I was interested in dating him? Or was it just being friendly?

If you are interested in him then go for it, because he is deifnantly trying to get somewhere with you.

Yes, but they have to beat the black cat first.


There are some horses and their owners.\nOut of the total number of horses, half of them had their owners riding on it. The rest horses where found to gallop with their respective owners who were also running along.\nIf there are 70 legs running on track,find the number of owners. riding on the horses.

Okay, let X = number of total horses.\n\n4X+ 2(X/2) = 70\n\n5X = 70\n\nThere are 14 total horses.\n\nHalf with owners riding, so it'll be 7 owners riding.\n\nChecking my work:\n\n14 times 4 plus 7 (the OTHER half) times 2 = ....\n\n56 legs (horses') plus 14 legs (owners' on track) = 70 legs.\n\nSo the answer is... 7 owners a-riding!


I have a Dell computer w/1GB RAM.  It's upgradeable to 4GB. The Dell website says to use DDR2 SDRAM, PC2-4200/533 Mhz.  I'm fairly knowledgeable about computers, but I admit that this confuses me.  Must the new RAM be DDR2?  Must it be SDRAM?  Will different speed chips have a negative (or fatal?) effect?  Do chips need to be placed in pairs?  Can different size chips be used at the same time?

Your new RAM must be DDR2...Besides, nothing else will fit as DDR2 has 240 pins, DDR has 184 pins and older SDRAM has 168 pins (for desktops anyway...laptops have a different number of pins than desktops, but each type still carries a separate number of pins from the other types).  Use the recommended speed as Dell computers are built only to handle a certain speed and, generally, are not upgradeable much less downgradeable.  Using memory of a different speed can cause your computer not to boot up and could possibly cause damage to the memory and/or motherboard.  Placing them in pairs is not absolutely necessary nor is using identical memory size chips, however, if you do use 2 sticks of identical memory, it gives the added benefit of using Dual-Channel which significantly enhances the performance of your memory and processor and, thus, your whole system.


Please show  the process so I would understand also.  Thank you very much.

There are two ways.\n1.  Find an equivalent (equal) fraction with a denominator of 10, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc.\neg.  7/40 = 175/1000 = 0.175\n(Divide 1000 by 40 and if this is a whole number then use 1,000 as the new denominator and multiply the answer (1000 divided by 40 = 25) with the numerator. 7 times 25 = 175.)\n\n2.  Divide the numerator by the denominator.\neg. 7 divided by 40 = 0.175\n\nAnswers for you to check:\n1/16 = 0.0625\n5/32 = 0.15625\n9/64 = 0.140625\n87/50 = 1.54\n273/250 = 1.092\n\nWhen the numerator is bigger than the denominator the answer will have whole numbers and sometimes decimals.

I have alot of good job offers down there. I've been accepted to a college down there to get my bachelor's degree. My family disapproves but I got to go somewhere if not Miami. They are negative people and I must surround myself with positive things.

NO! The people in Miami are very diverse and most of them are not very nice. I live in Georgia and my last job involved mostly customers from Miami and they were the nastiest people I have ever dealt with. They range from "ego maniac" Latin men to elder, retired, and extremely rich. People are very self-absorbed in Miami much like California. Lots of Botox and bikinis and fake boobs! You have just as many job opportunities here in Georgia (Atlanta) as you do in Miami. I cannot imagine a Georgia Peach like you or I integrating into Miami, which is not really the "South" as we are accustomed


I think that when Jesus said to Peter that all those who use swords will be killed by the swords. He gave us the guideline that we can not achieve anything POSITIVE WITH SWORD.  What you think?

Hey Brother!   Its Heb. 4:12\n\nFor the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Related to previous questions:\nCan a categorical variable such as sex have a confidence interval? \nWhat is the difference in interpretation of 1-sided and 2-sided confidence intervals?\nAre confidence intervals "1- or 2-sided" or are hypothesis tests "1- or 2-sided"? (or both can be either?)\nAre confidence intervals symmetric or asymmetric? (or could be either, how to interpret either way)\nHow to interpret confidence intervals vs. hypothesis tests?\nHow reliable are descriptions of confidence or probability that a particular respondent is in one category or another (or categorized correctly), and based on what information?  \nTo stay with same example for both questions\n48% of population is male \n95% symmetric confidence interval 43%-52%\n(please illustrate sideness of confidence intervals or hypothesis tests with examples in responses)

Two sided test is for coefficient to be equal to a number or another coefficient. One sided test is for coefficient being greater or less than another coefficient or a number. Categorical variables can have confidence intervals. If you find that your estimated coefficient is outside confidence interval (-inf, number) then it's significant, you explain it as any other variable, but comparison group is the other gender. For example, if sex =0 for males, =1 for females, its negative and significant, and the dependent variable is income, then females earn less than males and the amount of loss is estimated by the coefficient.\n\nPS. Your question is more for statistics or econometrics than math.

Is this an offical phobia?  Is ths common in men?  I'm serious...I'd rather pull weeds.  I think people look like total idiots dancing.

Part of why you don't like it is because you haven't learned how. It probably wasn't somthing done very often in your household when you were growing up. But this practice has been around for centuries. Back ages past it was a way to get close to a woman you were interested in, and if you could move at all and still smile sweetly as you gazed adoringly upon her, then you were the object of all woman's affections.\nLearn some older steps first in a classroom setting. It will give you a good foundation for learning more moves and modern dances. Once you've got the hang of moving your feet to the beat, and not being stiff kneed or staring at your toes... then you can learn some dances in a more social environment like a country bar and pick up some of those fun line dances.\nBelieve me a man who knows how to move on the floor will have more successful moves off the floor if you take my meaning. Plus it's a great excuse to hold a woman close, even strange women!\nEnjoy!


Have you told someone, "I dont want to be with you anymore" without being honest and straightforward?

I have done that.  I hate to hurt someone's feelings and to say "I'm just plain tired of you" or I'm sick of your whining about everything", would do that so instead I've told him we need time apart to reevaluate our feelings. \n\nThe better way for me seems to be to say "I just don't feel we are meant for each other". "There are just too many issues we disagree on".  That seems to work without doing too much damage.\n\nIt isn't hard for me to make the decision to end a relationship because if I really want it to end, there is a reason and I just remember that reason is important to me.


Good or Bad effects? It is highly debated now that each of these programs has caused harm by directing children to be afraid only of strangers, which amounts to an example of (1% of abduction/molestation by stranger and left them open to 99% of possible real dangers) and has brought the curiosity of drugs to those that othrwise would never have come into contact with it, or been aware of drugs in their daily lifestyles. Opinions?

I actually learned a lot from DARE. But I also was taught about it in the mid 80s. But I have stayed away from drugs. And I was almosted kid napped but I remembered the training I learned from the program and I did what I was taught. I don't know how the program is set up now though, but in the 80s I think that it was a good program and taught a lot


trying to get a domain - several maybe, but my OLD credit card is on file and I need to change it in order to pay for domain names.  Where do I go to change the card number?

Stop using your credit cards.\n\n \n\n“People change their lives only when they say, ‘I’ve had it!’” – Les Brown\n\n \n\nThink you can’t exist in the 21st century without credit?  Do you have at least one credit card?  Did you sign up just for the bonus miles or cash back?  Sounds like it’s time for you to perform a plasectomy.  (That’s what Dave calls cutting up your credit card.)  You’ve heard all the lies, now here are a few facts about credit.\n\n \n\nMyth: No on can live without credit cards.\n\nFact: Actually, 24% of American households are getting by just fine without any type of credit according to a Federal Reserve survey of consumer finances.  Try using your debit card or cash instead.  If millions of Americans can live without credit, so can you!\n\n \n\nMyth: Credit cards help me get airline miles, cash back and other discounts.\n\nFact: Yeah, credit cards also help you get into debt.  Consumer Reports say that only 25% of airline miles are ever redeemed – and credit card companies know it.  Earning a few airline miles is not worth thousands of dollars in debt.  \n\n \n\nMyth: I can just pay off the balance at the end of every month.\n\nFact: You’ll be in the minority.  According to CardWeb.com, only 40% of credit card users pay off their balance when they receive the bill.  Plus, overspending is inevitable when you use a credit card.  It’s just easier to swipe a piece of plastic than it is to flash the cash.\n\n \n\nMyth: “Ninety days same as cash” is the smart way to buy.\n\nFact: “Ninety days same as cash” is a scam.  Retailers know that most consumers won’t pay their balance in 90 days, which means you get stuck with outrageous interest rates and back charges to boot.\n\n \n\nMyth: I’m required to have a credit card to buy a house.\n\nFact: Several quality mortgage companies provide underwriting which allows you to purchase a home without a credit card.  If your mortgage lender requires a credit card for your home loan, run – don’t walk – to a lender who will actually help you achieve freedom from credit.


I went out with this guy last week. he told me saturday that we would get together this saturday, but he still didn't ask me yet. do you think i should ask him out. To remind you he is married and a have a boyfriend,

I think you should leave him alone. How much do you like (love) your boyfriend? How long have you two been dateing? How do you realy like(love) your boyfriend? This married man will never be able to give himself fully to you.

I am a 25 year old woman. I have never masturbated or anything of that nature. I have several friends that do on a very regular basis from what they tell me ( some of which are married). They all tell me that I don't know I am missing. So, is something wrong with me that I don't have the desire to do this when I am all alone? Or should I just go ahead and try it for the hell of it?

Please do!  Masturbation is  a wonderful  tool for your own sexual health.  You will be surprised to find out how differently sex with someone else feels after you have masturbated, and have a different understanding of your  own body.  Be creative with yourself, fall in love with YOU first!!!!


so what next,if one is diagonised with one?

Ovarian cysts form for numerous reasons. The most common type is a follicular cyst, which results from the growth of a follicle. A follicle is the normal fluid-filled sac that contains an egg. Follicular cysts form when the follicle grows larger than normal during the menstrual cycle and does not open to release the egg. Usually, follicular cysts resolve on their own over the course of days to months. Cysts can contain blood (hemorrhagic or endometrioid cysts) from injury or leakage of tiny blood vessels into the egg sac. If a woman is in her 40's, or younger, and has regular menstrual periods, most ovarian masses are "functioning ovarian cysts," which are not really abnormal. They are related to the process of ovulation that happens with the menstrual cycle. They usually disappear on their own during a future menstrual cycle. Therefore, especially in women in their 20's and 30's, these cysts are watched for a few menstrual cycles to verify that they disappear. Because oral contraceptives work in part by preventing ovulation, physicians will not really expect women who are taking oral contraceptives to have common "functioning ovarian cysts." Thus, women who develop ovarian cysts while taking oral contraceptives may be advised against simple observation; rather, they may receive closer monitoring with pelvic ultrasound or, less commonly, surgical exploration of the ovary. Functional ovarian cysts cannot be prevented if you are ovulating. Anything that makes ovulation less frequent reduces your chance of developing an ovarian cyst. Birth control pills, pregnancy, and breast-feeding in the first 6 months following birth prevent ovulation. Ovulation ceases when menopause is complete. Women who use high-dose birth control pills have a modestly decreased risk of developing functional ovarian cysts; low-dose birth control pills seem to have a less preventive effect.


I am planning on buying a new computer. Should I go with Dell, or maybe Compaq, or even Apple. Tell me what you think. Thanks!

Well, you might get good deals on Dell.  But I wouldn't recommend a Dell to you.  All my roomies have been having problems with their Dell laptops (maybe the Made in China stuff infuses cheap electronics and bad quality).  If you want a cheap system, go for a Dell, but their quality isn't up to mark.  Secondly, they have been having hardware problems lately, especially with laptop batteries.  There was a huge notebook recall.\n\nI would recommend HP (and Compaq) or Toshiba for good performance and decent prices.  Apple is awesome for looks and build quality and battery life.  But you won't find a lot of Windows application on the Mac OS.  You can get good reviews on CNETReviews or Notebook Review (if you want to buy a laptop).


Scottrade is the way to go. Their commissions are flat rate and cheaper than everyone else's. I've researched this extensively. They charge 7 bucks for live trades and give you free streaming quotes. Most other places have delayed quotes and charge upwards of 10 dollars for live trades. Sharebuilder claims 4 dollar trades but those you have to schedule a week in advance!!! Their live trades are 14.95!!! Scottrade only requires $500 initial deposit and as you put more money in, they give you A TON of benefits. They have been rated as the best online trading company like 6 years in a row!!!!\n\nHope this helps

i have a potential customer that would liek to purchus my online skills in webdesign and hosting.... problem tho... the dude lives in bahrain. its a small country / island off the coast of sadiarebia. Im gonna be charging the dude 140$ american per month. other then creditcards, what are my options to get money from him? ive tried paypal, but come on, barain is not listed for him to join. \n\nAnyone know of anything else we could do. soposidly checks are out of the question for him. \n\nIf he shipped me cash (dangerous i know) where would i be able to conver to USD from Bahrain Dinari

Money Orders are always an option. Your bank would charge YOU a fee for converting into USD or you could insist that he pay you with USD.\n\nCash (DANGEROUS) or Check is an option again with you having to pay to transfer (and check with your bank what they charge and what the transfer rate is there. It will be much lower than what is actually posted.)\n\nInstead of charging monthly I would charge him for a whole year and then give him a small discount for his 'inconvenience'. This will make things a lot easier than having to do this every month.\n\nIn any event the link below is a great place to get started.


what does the word triskadecaphobia mean?

Triskaidekaphobia is a fear of the number 13. It is usually considered to be a superstition. A specific fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia.\n\n\nOrigins\nThe superstition has been linked to the fact there were 13 people at the last supper of Jesus. It has also been linked to that fact that a lunisolar calendar must have 13 months in some years, while the solar Gregorian calendar and lunar Islamic calendar always have 12 months in a year.

Can anyone suggest anything that ISN'T law enforcement for a criminology major? I'm currently working in a hospital OR and I'm not too sure that I want to stay there. I just don't want to be a cop and most people DO NOT differentiate between Criminal Justice and Criminology. They are TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STUDIES!! I'm thinking about going back to school for a second B.S. in Psychology, or something similar, because my current employer will pay for it, as long as I'm working towards a degree. Any ideas about what I could do?

Hi i am a cadet from philippine national police academy, before i become a cadet i am in criminology degree here is the definition for criminology\nCRIMINOLOGY is the entire body of knowledge regarding crimes and criminals in order to prevent or repress them and about the criminal justice it is one of the major subjects in criminology


What does it intail to go about getting a passport,what all do i have to do?

Yes. We are, but we are not treating each other like we are. It is interesting to know that MOST people I met think (if you look latin) That you are Mexican and like mexican food (hot sauce), chillies, and blah, blah, blah and on top of that you are not educated and don't speak English...\nI am not Mexican. I like 'some' Mexican food nothing 'HOT'. I am educated and speak English, but it does really hurt to see 'people' been SO ignorant. America (the continent) is mostly latin with the exception of Canada and the US.\nWhat should we do to change that mentality? What should we do to be more open to new things that can be good for us as human beings?

It is true we r all created equal but many ppl seem not 2 care.\nRacism has been around since the begining of time. We can't help that; but in a sense "people" don't learn til it happens to them.\nI knew a girl who said nasty things bout me because of where i lived. a few days after the same was said to her cause of her skin colour. Only then did she learn.\n\nIf America is know as the land of the free, why r ppl still "enslaved"!\n\nWe must 'do onto others as we would have them do onto us'.


My husband says that I should open up to him more.  He does things that he knows are wrong and then wants to kiss and make up.  I try to talk to him about it and he says that he doesnt want to talk about it and makes every excuse not to talk about it.  For instance, he went out with his friends but said that he would be back by 11 pm to take me out.  It came to be 12:30 and no call no husband.  I call him on his cell and get no answer.  At 1:30 am i call him again and he says that the party we were supposed to go to was the next weekend.  I felt he was rude because not once did he call to say that we werent going or that he was going to be late, he just stayed out.  He ends up not coming in the house until after 3 am and wants a kiss and says sorry.  The thing is that he does this all the time and when i say something about it, he says that i am starting an argument and then begins to ignore me.  What do I do and how do i get him to communicate with me?

Read your first 2 sentences.  Your husband wants you to open up to him more.  Then he does things that make you angry.  \n \nHe is doing these things to elicit a response from you that reaffirms your love for him.  It's like a cat & mouse game for him.  He's doing what he wants to do, while you wait & worry for him.\n\nTurn the tables...go out with your girlfriends; don't call him back; tell him you'll be at one club, but go to another in case he tries to find you.\n\nThen later, when he's pissing & moaning about how you mistreated him, tell him "Now you know how I feel when you do this to me".  Sometimes guys need this to open their eyes.


he dosent want to dress like a guy.and the more he dresses like a girl the more he likes guys and thinks of guys more and more.and now is thinking of taking breast pills to make his breast grow???????his he going gay???????????

Yes....sounds like someone has a little sugar in their tank.  Plan a speech for your parents..your gay.


What is the best way to deal with PTSD? The panic attacks and flashbacks are horrible and are becoming hard to deal with. what can I do to get through the irrational thoughts and such?

While job searching a few months ago, about 95% of the jobs that I applied to on Craigs List for Graphic Design were not responding.  I am at mid level in my career, so I am not just "starting out"  I have gotten a job since on Career Builder, but now I am on the search for some freelance work and I have not gotten any responses back again.  Has anyone else had this problem?

People who post on craigslist are 95% retarded. Remember the posts are free so they have no value or meaning to the people who post them. They get flooded with replies and are ALWAYS looking for the most for the cheapest. If you are a mid level designer you will find it harder and harder to get jobs off of craigslist because you are moving in to a higher bracket then these people are willing to pay.\n\nIf they see your portfolio, or you include your rates 9 times out of 10 you are scaring them away. They want college students for slave labor.\n\nSo my suggestion would be to pick and choose the postings you reply to, or go on a massive reply bender and hope for the best, but remember 90% retarded..  ;)

Some examples...\nKenedy Assasination\nMoon landing\nKatrina etc...

Most are false, including all the ones you suggested.\n\nKenedy is the most 'grey' because, while Oswald shot Kenedy, we don't know who (if anyone) he was working for.\n\nMan definitely landed on the moon.  Period.\n\nKatrina disaster could've been lessened if some of the 'must renforce stuff' people were listened to.  That being said, however, neglegence does not equal a conspiracy to kill people.


The part of Romeo and Juliet by Shakespear that says," They grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night." is that an allusion, symbolism, personification, inversion, or paradox? Please help! I am very confused!

Personification. The morn does not have eyes nor does it smile, and the night does not frown. Causing inanimate objects to have human behavior is personification.


Benjamin Franklin is quoted as saying, “A people who chose security over liberty will receive neither nor deserve either.”

There is a price for our freedom and security. I will have to go with freedom. In freedom comes the security and stability our great nation needs. However we need to stand by the decisions that have been made. Children need to feel free and secure. And as parents we need to set that path for our future. Well the only way we can become the greatest nation is for us to pull our heads out of our 4th point of contact and really desire and respect the sanctaty of respect for our leader(s). How can we expect other nations to respect and to fear us when we dont respect our leader? We belittle him and make fun of him. Why? because we know that we can't make the right decision. This world is about damn if you do and damn if you don't. Either way someone isn't happy. As a nation we need to become one and support our freedom. Let those know that we are greatful for their sacrifices.

Being disabled is no big deal. I am no different than anyone else in this world. My family has disowned me and so have my friends because of a work related injury. The drugs changed my complete body to the point where I cannot look in the mirror. I love me. I am a crazy, silly grandma. what do you think of disabled people?

I have whats known as hidden disabilities.  I have also been in a wheelchair from time to time due to injuries and I can totally relate to what you are saying.  People that are ugly towards you because of your disability are not only mis informed, but incredibly shallow.  If they cant still see the real you inside, as much as it will hurt, I say dump them cause they arent worth your time and never were.  I have had to do that to a few people and while it hurt like hell, it made them look like idiots in the process.\n\nGood luck to ya, sweet person.


I have read that it was against Muslim's law for a Muslim to live a non-Muslim country, unless this is for a short period of time or in case of absolute necessity. Is this the case?\n\nAlex

I'm from East Tn and I hear so many prejudice people around don't think races should inter-marry. I think if God had a problem with it, it would be like incest where the child has defects. There are no defects that I know of from interracial couple, people say its hard on the kids to which I say with proper parents persocution will only build strength and character. What do you think? This is religious section so I would like reasons based on your religious beliefs if any.

I totally agree. God isn't worried about what race a person is, but he does care what people believe. There are many places in the bible where God warns people not to marry a Canainite woman or a person from whatever country. But the only reason for this was that the specific people God was talking about worshiped other Gods. God did say not to be unequally yoked, meaning believers should not be married with non-believers. But it has nothing to do with race.

My mum just had a bad fall and her teeth hit the ground and there are not steady. I'm so hurt and worried about this. Please advice me what can we do now. I’m also a reason for her fall, today my wireless internet is not working and I took the telephone wire to my room and I was answering here all the time. And she stepped into the wire and had a fall. It’s my mistake.

Try to talk her into going to the hospital, particularly if she shows signs of sleepiness since the fall, (could be from a concusion).\n\nTell her you can't relax unless she takes care of this some way or another ...\n\nYou can permit yourself only enough guilt to help you remember not to repeat the error which caused the incident, any more guilt than that will make you twisted - for real!


I think my mother is the most importand person in my life. Nobody can take her place.

well in my family it would be my mommy because she created me and took care of me. in the friendship way it would be my boyfriend uziel because he loves me and understands me.but both of them love me and protect me. and i cant forget my best friend raema she always has my back


i have freinds and they say that they love me but they dont show it, should i believe them?

People have different ways of expressing their love, just because they don't openly show doesn't mean they don't.  Think about it really hard and you will find something that is gonna show a way that person has proven their love to you. Hint:  it might be something totally insignificant but meaningful all the same.

hello to all,\n\n\nI am a student and i am doing a research regarding the right to privacy\n\n\n\nand bloggers.\n\n\nso i am asking for your help and your opinion and would like to post a\nfew questions.\n\n\nfirst, i guess none of you believe a right to privacy even exist for\nthe blogger. if any one object i would like to hear\nsecondly, think about it, yes, as a blogger, you published your blog on\n\n\n\nthe net, but can someone/or a reoprter quote you or criticize you on a\npublic or well know newspaper?\n\n\nmoreover, if a blogger concider himself a journalist, is he obligated\nto the right to privacy of the person he writes about?\n\n\nanyother question and answer will be more than welcome \n\n\nthank you

In my opinion if you put something out in public space you should expect it to be public. Also since it is not copyrighted it is not protected in the fact that someone can come along and use what you say in another public forum without giving you/blogger credit. \n If the blogger has any common sense/civility he should let his friends know that what they say could end up on his blog just like a journalist should be letting his quotes know that they will end up in print/ public view.

The question is pretty straightforward... how does the computer clock keep time when the computer has no real understanding of dimensions?

Computers are very good at counting.\n\nThe clock inside the computer is just a counter.  The speed at which it counts is measured in Hertz (that is, cycles per second), or more commonly on computers GigaHertz (Billions of cycles per second).  For each cycle, a counter is incremented.  When the appropriate number of cycles have passed (based on the speed of the computer), then the computer knows that a second has passed.\n\nWhile machines CAN measure time very precisely, your typical PC will only measure it accurately to maybe the 100th of a second.  This is sufficient for most uses.


There are at least 200^9 (that's 200 followed by nine zero's) stars in our galaxy alone. There are at least 200^9 other galaxies in the observable universe, and an untold number in the entire universe. Each of those galaxies has more or less the same star count as ours (200^9) That works out to something like AT LEAST 4^22 stars in the observable universe. It's almost a mathematical impossibility that none of those star systems have alien life.\n\nJust for kicks, you might want to play around with the famous Drake Equation. With it, you can guesstimate the number of alien civilizations in just our galaxy -- http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/origins/drake.html

People always talk about abortion laws that fail to exempt if the 'health of the mother' needs it.  I don't understand.  As such an invasive and potentially dangerous procedure, how can an abortion be considered emergency medicine?

A pregnancy that implanted in the fallopian tube is a major one.  If allowed to grow, the fetus would burst the tube and both the fetus and mother would die.  There are many other medical reasons why a abortion might be necessary, like incest, malformation and fatal pregnancy induced conditions in the mother.

She had two ear infections and we're on day 3 of 10 of 800mg total of liquid Amoxicillin.  The infection went away on the first day and the fever went down, but she's having hearing trouble.  Any advice?

Give it time. With an ear infection you usually have some fluid build up behind the eardrum. Even if the fever is gone, the fluid (and the bacteria in it)can still be there. So the hearing should improve as the fluid goes away and make sure your daughter finishes the full course of the Amoxicillin, or the bacteria in the fluid can start multiplying again and she can end up even sicker than before. I learned this the hard way.


I have a large collection of Cassette tape recordings that I would like to incorporate into my CD/digital library.  I have burned a few by sending them through the sound card on my computer, but the input is mono, and the recordings sound really bad- muffled, half the harmonies lost because the send wasn't stereo.  Can anyone out there offer suggestions?

If your sound card only accepts mono you will need to upgrade the card. Try this program first. It will automatically detect your sound cards capabilities and configure itself for maximum performance:\nhttp://www.soundrecorder.net/


Maybe, it depends on what kind of debt it is.  There are a number of different time frames for items to be removed from your credit report.  Inquiries remain on your credit report for 2 years. Delinquencies, collection accounts, charge-off accounts, chapter seven bankruptcy, and paid tax liens remain on your credit report for 7 years. Chapter thirteen bankruptcy remains on your credit report for 10 years. Unpaid tax liens remain on your credit report for 15 years. This information came directly from the credit bureau.

for someone to get started with very little I would suggest them to first have capital. a freind is on his way by making first a go with  with e-bay by just knowing a few people with items and has blossumed like you would not believe.it can be a money maker for some and some excellent finds for other, whichever you choose.\n\nfor some that may not know how much fun it is to browse and/or shop on e-bay-here are some instructions to a very good spot to start out finding excellant products at very reasonable prices. this fellow starts out at very low starting bid prices on knives, i-pods, all tools, fishing equiptment, computers, printers and changes his items maybe every other day.how I think he makes it so good on there is he guarentees his items, sends to any country, and he keeps a 100 percent feedback which means the customers have all been happy.\nsome folks dont know how to dig in there so here is how to get to his site fairly easy and from there click around to an entire new trend for shoppers and sellers alike and.b.t.w., (2000canary is his i.d.)--just get to e-bay and click "buy" then under "buy" theres 2 boxes (go under them)is a search option--click "e-bay stores" search and put in the "2000canary"(dont worry about filling in the other blanks)then click search again. you will notice that its also known as his "liquidators companys" because he has done so well hefeatures a store spot on ebay as well. then happy hunting!!gradually you will learn to watch on ebay and deal with folks that have lots of great feedback to avoid problems, which is tricky at first until youve learned the ropes. this I know, will at least send you to an awesome spot to start with some great deals daily.\nthe items also display a current picture of the product that is up for sale as well. I have alot of fun in there myself. I love to buy fitness c d's because I get bored so easy and I mostly pay 2-3 bucks for them if you catch them on a good day where theres few bidders on line. thats when you can scoop up on the deals, my freind!! \n\niso it seems to me that perhaps to buy and resell if one is agressive enough could prosper well. ywe all have to start somewhere!!\n\n\n \n\nWhat kind of company (with the minimum investment) would be successful ing some type of capital backup.


Me and my ex lived together for 4 yrs and I finally got fed up with his lies and moved out. I couldn't get all of my belongings in one trip and he told me I could come back to get the rest. Now he is playing games and is never around (so he says) so that I can get the rest of my things. I have been trying to get him to give me my things for almost 5 months now. What can I do? Or where can I go to get help with this and get my things back?

You could always call Non-Emergency 911 for your area and ask to speak to an officer.  Tell them your situation and ask for a police escort.  They will assist you.

that girl lying in bed having mononucleosis

Mononucleosis is what my boyfriend gave me for Christmas, but it could have been worse: he could have given me clamydia.\n\nOkay, that was grosser than I intended.


My friend was the victim of vandalism.  When calling the police, we learned that we had to go to the police station, the police were not coming to us.  #1  We were given wrong directions #2 When we arrived, NO one acknowledged us #3 When asking where to go or who to see for help, an officer began yelling about how busy they were and pointing out the problems of the other waiting citizens #4 another office who eventually took our report was sarcastic, not helpful with questions and discussed lunch coverage, who was eating what, where and when while we waited, he deliberatly made smart remarks and strolled the room in slow motion between filling out the report, talking to colleagues and discussing lunch time. #5 This story only gets worse and longer....it's sad when THE POLICE who are to protect and serve treat you the way we were treated yesterday.  Who /Where should this be communicated to where it may have a positive impact/change for citizens who visit that precinct in the future?

Sounds like you were treated very poorly indeed.  I agree with contacting someone with some juice at the department, but likely the best you're going to do is reach someone in lower management to take your complaint.  Probably not going to get much satisfaction there.\n\nCertainly can write the paper, though it's doubtful a letter in the paper is going to change the way they do business.\n\nTry making an appointment to talk to the highest-ranking person in the department.  Tell them you don't want to make a formal complaint (formal complaints probably have a "process" they have to go through, and that's likely going to involve talking to someone who can't make the kind of changes you want to have made), you only want to alert this person to the situation you experienced.  You may have to be insistent, because it's likely the minute they hear the word "complaint", they're probably going to want to run you through the complaint process.  \n\nAnother option is to try and talk to someone within the City (you didn't say where you are, but if you're in a city, you probably have something like a mayor's office).  If you can get to someone there, you'll probably be talking to someone who at least has the ear of the person who hires/fires the Chief.\n\nGood luck.  I'm very sorry you had such a terrible experience.\n\nPS - someone is bound to get on here and tell you to run for the hills, hide from the cops, don't tell anyone until you've delivered three signed copies of your statement to an attorney and a priest, and be extremely paranoid of the police from now on if you make the complaint.  \n\nWhatever.  You've got to do whatever you think is right.  I think you need to be heard and then move on with your life.

I'm a junior high student who will graduate in December 2006 and go to college in Spring 2007. Should I apply for financial aid in this spring or in spring 2007? Now is too early but next year is too late? Thanks for your time.

You should check with the financial aid offices of the school(s) you want to attend. The likelihood is because you want to attend in the 2006-2007 school year now is a good time to apply for federal/state aid. \n\nAlso, you should also check to see if the school accepts new freshman in the spring (lots of school only accept students for fall).


Only law imputes sin, which imputes a "death" sting.\nIf "in him there is no sin", where in him such "sting"?\n\nTo=>wit: "that God" in "Christ" didn't law-impute sin.\n\nThat God(good) is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.\n\nMt 6: Our Father, deliver us from "evil".\nRom 7:6 We are delivered from the "law".

Are you back?  \n\nSin is a creation of man.  Death is a misunderstood phenomenon commonly believed to be unavoidable.  \n\nChrist was just a guy.\n\nWe are all god.

if i have daily sex is it bad for heath orr good? if bad then tell me why the reason? waiting for your reply!!!

if you do it w/ the right person,it's generally good. It's a good and fun way of excercise. You can have the best sleep after sex. It's good for your nasal congestions, it helps soothes.It's good for the skin, cause of the sweat that unclogs the pores.They say ur skin radiates when you have enough sex. And also because your body secretes dopamine, hormone secreted when you're happy. but DAILY??? i don't know if it's good to have that much. I say just enough.Twice a week?? haha!!!

I just saw someone asking a question about if Lucinda Basset was real and I have no idea who she is. Please explain.

Lucinda Basset is an expert (or supposed expert) on stress and how to deal with it. She sells self-help programs for dealing with depression and anxiety.


I love her but am worried she will not appreciate my nosing in.

mary,\n\nYou know your child better than anyone else.  Knowing what sets her off is your key to letting her know anything.\n\nIf she needs to be handled with kid gloves, put them on.  If she appreciates the direct approach, let it fly.  \n\nIt's something that needs to be discussed, though.  Perhaps she doesn't know about her little problem.  You're being a good mom...she should be happy to have a mom like you.

i want to be able to give weaknesses without putting myself down or making myself seem unfit for the job.

An example of the best way to handle this question: "I tend to be a bit disorganized, so I compensate by keeping a priority list of everything I need to do and don't allow myself to ignore it." Any time you admit to a weakness, make sure you explain how you've overcome or compensated for it.

I created a dll with VB .NET Class Library Project Type. The DLL will show one dialog window when client program calls its function. I used regasm executable to register my DLL in the target PC. But the DLL didn't work. I have to compile the dll in the target PC, then it works. It's ridiculous to recompile the dll in the target PC before using the dll. Even in my PC sometimes it works and sometimes not. Can somebody help me with this, \n\nDLL Apprentice.

It sounds like you are running into 'versioning' problems with .NET.  First of all, to register your assembly in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) you have to sign your assembly with a strong name.  Your applications that use that assembly then reference the assembly.\n\nThe problem comes in if you do not specifically designate the version of your assembly.  Look in the AssemblyInfo.vb, most specifically at the AssemblyVersion attribute.  If this is set to something like "1.0.*", that will direct the compiler to update the version number each time you compile.\n\nChange the version to a specific number, like "1.0.0.1" and leave out the '*'.  Even if you have a strongly named assembly with the same key, it will not work with other applications that have been compiled against a different version, which is changing every time you compile!

How can I stay awake if I have to finish a term paper or something. I already been trying caffiene but its wearing off.

I try staying awake to finish term papers a lot.  Keep the lights on so that you don't think of it as night time.  Too much caffine will make you hyper, but just enough will keep your brain stimulated enough to stay awake.  Try sleeping a lot the night before and take a nap that day so you aren't as tired at night.  Try to do all your research before hand so that all you need to do it put it all together.  Do your citations and stuff the next day.  A lot of people say power naps help, but for me if I were to lie down I would stay asleep all night.  Whatever works for you.


You've been married 16 years, tried everything to make it work, and still there's this distance between you that's like the Great Wall of China.  No attraction, no connection...so how do you just say, "it's over"?

Your partner might feel the same way.  Don’t be afraid.  Try to have a leave headed discussion.  Don’t drag in past fights.  Be fair, let them know you still care but that you are suffering and you know they are too.  You want them to be happy and you want happiness for yourself.  I hope this helps.


Hello,\nI am the editor of a newsletter. I mail the newsletters out by snail mail. Many members of our group have requested the newsletter be emailed. How can I email to a group of people and have it sent out to each person individually and not by using BCC?\nThank you,\nNewsletter Lady

Yahoo e-mailing actually has a new feature that allows you to create groups of contacts.  Go to address.yahoo.com, then add all the contacts to your address book.  Then click add list in the menubar and then all you have to do is use the window that pops up to put all the people you want in the list.  Now whatever you title the list is now what you type into the address field in the compose window.  Hope that is understandable and that helps you.


as for me i considered a man lucky if he/she has been loved...whats the prize of winning a lotto if u dont have someone to share with??whats the use of being a rich man if u feel alone and unwanted? i want to hear ur side

Man is lucky...when he loves and is loved back with equal emotion and reciprocation. He's lucky even when he doesnt have the material riches in the world but has someone who can love, trust and believe in him, eternally, boundlessly!


2 million Ecuadorians reside in the USA, most of them are illegals.  If there could be an Ecuadorian referendum on statehood, I believe the majority would vote in favor.  Will the USA then be interested in Ecuador?  Its strategic location in South America might be an enticement.

A super majority of congress would have to vote in favor of annexing the country.  This would never happen.  Also, the government of Ecuador would have to agree.  That would never happen either.

Those big MRI machines made me wonder about the construction method of a magnet.

There are some natural magnets. For example, the mineral magnetite is magnetic, and is found in lodestones. \n\nIf you have a magnet, you can stroke a piece of metal (not all metals, but some) and magnetize it; that is, turn it into a magnet. You line up the magnetic domains when you stroke it so it has a net magnetic field. If you put a radio reciever nearby tuned to the right frequency, you can hear the domains flip as you do this; this is called the Barkhausen effect. \n\nThere are also electromagnets. Passing an electric current through a coiled wire wrapped around the right kind of metal (called a shunt) produces a magnet. This is the kind of magnet one finds in MRI machines.


I am searching for an inexpensive adhesive that can be used to glue paper and nylon. It must be pressure sensitive.

Gorilla Glue is a water activated, solvent-free polyurethane glue (for additional info, see first site below).  The closest adhesive to it in chemical properties is Titebond Polyurethane Glue (see site below).


Let's say, I found an opportunity and I quit my job, my country, my family, relatives and friends behind and moved to Chili. Is this a new beginning or an effort in vain as I would be the same person as I used to be!

'No matter where you go. There you are."\n\nIf you are REALLY looking for a new start and brand new life. You need to be "born again". Don't get caught up with that term. Read my study below and you will understand.\n\nMy life was going down, fast. Everyone I knew just wanted to rip me off or use me. My parents were in to drinking and going off to parties or going to Europe and gave me no direction or support. I was dying inside and tried drowning it in Rock music, booze and weed. All that changed in 1971 when I became "born again". 35 years later, my life has been getting better and better. And no matter where I go, I am at peace and full of joy!


- "allegory": Gal 4:24 (to "bewitched" churches)\n- triple "mystery": Col 2:2 (of God, Father, Christ)\n- written aforetime: Rom 15:4 (for our "learning")\n- a "shew": Behold, I "shew" you a mystery\n- Shew is plural of show. \n- Scriptures are plural of the script-u-are\n- "their part" vs "your part"? Your part?

I wouldn't take anything in the bible literally.

Not too detailed but have good information.


if a PR executive is forced to rely on only one meium for all of his news, which one he will rely on, TV, newpapers, magazines, news and radio. his concern should be only with the medium's presentation of the news and not with other information it transmits. indicate which of these media you would choose to rely on. explain the reasons of the selection and indicate concerns that would have about being limited to the medium you have chosen.

Well, you forgot to list the Internet, which trumps these hands down in my opinion, but if I did have to choose, I'd say newspaper. Its a little slower than the rest (most only have 2 editions), but the sheer number of words allows for a breath not capable on television or radio.  Magazines aren't regular enough (unless you were including daily bulletins).  Like I pointed out, the newspapers' limited frequency would put me at a slight disadvantage, but if I read it every day, I would be able to anticiapte most marketing and business trends (breaking news excluded, of coures).

drugs but my blood sugar is not under control.so what should i do.

I to had diabetes type 2 and I beat it..I had caught it just in time..I was taking a pill called actos .There are many ,many sights you can go to for better advise,diet,and excerise on the web..just type diabetic in your browser and look at all the information you have at your finger tips.I wish you the best of luck with this type of condition..it is a tough one go battle.


I don't want to tell me doc I smoke grass, so i can't ask her. Also, most sites will tell you it's not OK, but the fact is, I'm really fine even after three years of mixing pot and antidepressants... am I GOING to get crazy later or what?

Unless you live under a rock, you must know the dangers of cannabis, and you certainly should know the long-term dangers of antidepressants. Whether mixing them together has any effect on you I doubt if anyone really knows. (Cannabis can actually cause depression in some people so it begs the question: why use it AND take an ANTIdepressant at the same time? Come off the grass and you may find you really don't need to stay on psych drugs at all!)\n\nCertainly, the longer you take Cannabis, the more likely it is you will suffer from its harmful long-term effects (including the possibility of paranoid disorders including schizophrenia). The longer you take antidepressants the more likely you will suffer from their harmful long-term effects (including an abnormal brain chemistry, brain damage, severe liver damage, sexual dysfunction, tardive dyskinesia).\n\n--\nhttp://groups.msn.com/psychbusters\nDecoding Psychiatric Propaganda

Some are show in the media and by other currupted peers; that being snobby and stuck up is cute. That men are just for good times and treated like status symbols (money bags)?

Have any of you noticed that people who are trying to turn their headlights on as they approach the speed of light are always driving a car? It's never a bike, motorcycle, or locomotive. Is there are reason for that? Are all these people trying to replicate the same experiment?

I would guess that we use a car,because we all know what they are. We also know that cars have headlamps located on the front. We further know that the light is projected so as to illuminate the area in front of the car. What we DON'T know, is how to get one of them to move at C...No, not even your best chevvy.


I just need an address that shows his stats and/or records. Any help is appreciated. Thank you very much.

I think his name is Yukio Nishimura. He only played for three years and got elected to the Japanese hall of fame in '77. You can find his stats at the site below - but it's not an official site and it is in Japanese.


Of course I'd need free software for it (it should be a Win XP SP2 compatible one :-) ). The manufacturer said, this equipment (Pinnacle PCTV 100e) is very hardware-demanding. (At least 2 GHz CPU, etc... Mine is a 1,8 GHz Celeron P4.) With some other softwares, the picture was good, but there was no sound, and the original software used my CPU so much (100%), that it made my PC almost completely useless (it took 1-2 minutes for it to close the application) and the picture and the sound was very jerky. If there are no other options, I'll buy a better CPU, but I'd prefer not to buy another.

I actually have the exact same tv tuner as you. When I first installed the software, the programs were jerky as well. What the problem actually is is that you need more RAM for your computer. RAM helps with loading and running multiple programs at the same time. The more RAM you have in your system, the smoother it will run. Just about every brand of computer has a customer support website that you can look up specifications of your particular make and model of your computer. Look up what type of RAM you need and buy that particular kind for your system and follow the instructions on how to install it into your computer. Your tv tuner, as well as your other programs will operate a lot smoother then. Good luck in getting it to work!


i know he likes me,he show me many times but i want him to tell me straight.he knew i love him coz i told him many times.what can i do?

If you KNOW he likes you, then WHY is it so important for you to actually hear it from him?  He sounds shy - I wouldn't suggest pushing him into saying anything until he's comfortable doing so.


is he coming back and making new episodes or are they just airing the episodes they alreasy filmed?\nwhen will they be showing these episodes?

No one knows if and when there will be new shows except Dave himself. He is going to be on Oprah on Friday Feb 3, his first TV interview since he left the show, so maybe we'll find out then. I really hope he does!\n\nThe link below will take you to the website for the Oprah show. Click on "See what's coming up!" then click on the Friday tab on the window that opens for more info. http://www2.oprah.com/index.jhtml


My power cord for my Balance Technology laptop is overheating.  Can I use my old HP power cord with the Balance?

The plug may or not fit as they are usually differebt from mfg to mfg. If it does fit, make sure the voltage info is the same for both units before plugging it in as it may damage the unit.

With most professions, it's a compliment to say that their work is unparalleled. But what if the person is an architect?

[chuckle]\n\nReally, it's still a compliment. In the idiomatic sense, of course, it's a compliment to say their work is unparalleled (unique). In the literal sense, a lack of parallel lines in an architect's structure may contribute to this uniqueness - look at the unique geometry of Frank Gehry's works, for instance. To construct a functional building without typical straight-line geometry is a challenge, and anyone who undertakes that challenge and succeeds deserves a hearty compliment.\n\nYes, I know, I have no sense of humor.
