Why is it that the majority of theft in this country is done by colored people?  Not trying to be racist.  Just trying to understand why they have to perpetrate.\n\nIs it because the schools in the ghetto are inferior?\nIs it because they are economically disadvantaged?\n\n\nAnd why is it that they seem to be less discrimate about WHAT they steal than other races.  The majority of white collar theft in this country is done by white people, while the majority of bycicle theft is done by mexicans.  What about hub caps?\n\nNot being racist.  Just wondering if anyone has any insight into this.

It’s not a question of colour but financial status. Poor people are more likely to steal. In the USA the rate of blacks is high among the poor. This can be the reason, I guess. Well, in my country many more white people steal.


I've had this Compaq Presario 5000 desktop computer since 2001 and it came with 64 RAM. (I got it REAL cheap from Best Buy). I was told that I can buy more RAM to make my computer run faster, and that I should get 256 or 512. What do I buy? Is there a certain brand or something, or will anything do? I know NOTHING about computers. Please help, and how much will it run me?

Compaq uses proprietary ram it some of it's older computers and will cost you as much as an new entry level computer such as emachines or dell. Go to compusa or microcenter and see what is the cost of the new ram for your particular machine and go from there.


Is it true that there is one U.S. where it is illegal to get an abortion?  Which one is it?

Yes.  All states have limitation on getting a late term abortions.


Girls=Time*Money\nTime=money\nGirls=money*money or money^2\nMoney = Squareroot of Evil so\nGirls=Evil

You almost had me, but check this answer out.\nA square has 2 square roots, a positive and a negative.\nSo girls and money have opposite signs. Which one is\npositive is your choice. \n  But here's another point, when money squared is\nnegative, Girls are definitely imaginary.


I mean the way they walk you'd think if they fell over they'd be screwed, but then you never really know.They can't bend and have super short legs.

how do u think they get up from those awesome belly slides they love to do? they push up from the ground with their beaks and front wing things and they can stand up.


Serious answers only if you owned one and expierenced the machines to compare. Is Bowflex, the top of the line one, really worth the money and can it help us that have back problems and injuries? I see that the difference between the most expensive one and the others is more excercises, well are they the ones that don't put pressure on your back? Those of you that tried these machines, please help, need to build up strength and tired of all this pain.

I'm sure both of you should be on medication, right? Sometimes over exercising can aggravate make the condition worst. Try doing the cobra posture exercise which is supposed to be good for back ache. Lie down flat on your tummy and try lift up your head and chest. Do this exercise every morning before you leave your bed and every night before sleeping.You can also try the supplement, Glucosamine Chondroitin, people who have joints and back pains swear by it.Pound some ginger and boil it in water for 15 minuties (a piece thumb sized ginger to 1 cup of water, add a bit of honey and drink it 2 times daily, it helps to relieve rheumatism associated to too long periods of muscles and bone-aches, like back pains.

I understand exactly what you are experiencing.  I went in in 1966, went to Viet Nam and got out in 1970.  Everything I did for the next two years was hollow.  No sense of urgency, no real need for me, and I missed the JAZZ (to borrow a term from the A-Team).  I ended up going back to the Air Force in 1972.  You may be like I was.  If you are, nothing will fill that void except the military.  You need to be awakened at 0400 because someone needs you.  You need to work two or three back to back shifts because you are the only one with the skills necessary.\n\nThe only thing I really regret is the way the country is going.  There are people here who have no idea what is going on around them but they have the same rights as everyone else.  I was part of the mechanism that insured they could keep those rights.\n\nI have a friend who retired after I did, we communicate on a regular basis.  I have sent him dozens of articles about some dead head or another and all I ask is for him to tell me why we did the time.\n\nI sure this helps.  Best of luck in whatever YOU choose...


My friend said he gave her a card that says he likes her but everytime I ask him he says he doesnt. On Friday my friend told me him and her were behind an umbrella on the bleachers but were doing nothing. But they are always hanging out with eachother and I am really jealous. He never gets to call me because she calls him. One time he said he was going to call me but he never did. Then Kimberly (the girl that is always hanging with him) called me and said she just got off the phone with him. So he never gets to call because of her. Sometimes I dont like Kimberly. I am mad at her right now. Sometimes I wish she could move. That is how jealous I get.

it sounds like they dont care how you feel, is ther someone that she really like so that you all can hang out together so they can see what they are doing to you is not fair.  How long have you been goin with him. tell them you dont like it and you mean when you say it and if they dont listen hit them where it hurts be even dirtier then they are date someone else becuase he is cheating on you with your best friend


A geometric sequence has sixth term a sub 6 = 20 and tenth term a sub 10 = 320. Find the second term, a sub 2?  Can anyone do this or help me thanks!

x=2 and A=5/8 so sub2 = 1 and 1/4\nFirst we solve for X\n20 * x^4 = 320\nx^4 = 16\nx = 2\n\nThen we solve for A\n2^5 * A = 20\n32 * A = 20\nA = 20/32\nA = 5/8\n\nThen we go back and plug it in to sub 2\n5/8 * 2 = 10/8 or 1 and 1/4


My ex and I had a fantastic sex life, the rest just went downhill. We've been split up over a year now and still to this day, even when he's in a relationship with someone else, I still want and desire him sexually. Is anything wrong with that?

I would say those are natural feelings.  We all need fulfillment to some degree, and from what you descirbed, I wouldn't say that it sounds like you're thinking about enging in any type of experimentation that would be more harmful physically or emotionally.  Unlike other types of fantasies, since you had a previous relationship with him, you have more of a frame of reference to work from.  In time you may meet someone else, and these feelings might shift accordingly as you move on from him.  For now, it shouldn't pose any significant problems.

i have it in a cd right now that is about to mature, im looking for something that earns more interest.

a cd is really your best/only route if you want to borrow against it.


the relationship, he was heart broken over it, he hardly talked to me. After a few weeks since i ended the relationship he told me he met someone, i was like, ok. After a year he came back saying he wanted me back in his life, he's trying to do everything he can to win me back, i told him i needed some time to think. I really don't know what to do. what should i do? any advice?( should i take him back or not)?

if you really want him back too, i suggest you do..but if not, tell him straight out..i also suggest you rush thinking about it because if you take too long, he might pick up and leave, something you might not want to happen..


They started watching you the day before yesterday, when there were one-fifth the number of people watching you today. Yesterday, eighteen more people started watching you, but that was still only one-third of today's total. Tomorrow, there will be four times as many watching you as were watching you yesterday.\n\nHow many watchful people will be added between today and tomorrow?\nPS: It's okay without the working. It's even better without.

There will be 45 more people added between today and tomorrow! Simple mathematics!


Right..My next door neighbour is a woman, she knews both me and my wife. My wife and her go way back. This past week, she has been acting weird..\n\nEvery night right after my wife goes to work at midnight..without FAIL i hear her out in  her kitchen ( We live in apartments, so it is real close) making all sorts of noises..banging stuff, cluttering around, talking to herself..although she lives alone.\n\nWTF is up with that?!\n\nTo me, that seems like some really wierd s*it!

sounds like a cat lady... that doesn't have any cats lol.  na she just wants to make it obvious she's up and well be "social" and say hey come on over lets watch reruns of the price is right from 1972... I don't think i need to spell it out for you any more.


In addition to them, who else underperformed this NBA season, and why?

Sarunas Jasikevicius didn't have great numbers this year because of a lack of playing time.  When he was starting and getting minutes, he was producing and showed that he belongs in the NBA.  What probably kept him from shining was his adjustment to NBA rules and style of play as opposed to the International playing style/rules.  \n\nDanny Fortson has struggled with injuries all year.  His knee has given him a lot of problems and has kept him out for most of the season.\n\nWhen you think of under-achievers this year, you have to look at Ben Gordon, who has been very inconsistent.  He has increased his scoring average by only 1.4 points per game, while getting starter minutes.  Even though he blows up every now and then with huge games, he also has games where he can't even put up double digits.\n\nBaron Davis and T-mac have underperformed, but only because of struggling with injuries.


All I know is he was a Russian Mathmatician

"Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky (Dec. 1, 1792 – Feb. 24, 1856) was a Russian mathematician. His main achievement is the development of non-Euclidean geometry. Another of his achievements was developing a method for the numerical approximation of the roots of algebraic equations."

If you live in the above seven states, it is 4. If you don't it is 2.


I may be wrong and if I am please correct me, on the following thought.  If the Mexican people were originally indians prior to the Spanish conquering them and making babies with their woman, then that means that a good portion if not all by now are half breeds.  I don't mean this a mean spirited way, but if that is what happened according to history books, where were all the men when this was happening?  would'nt these mexicans who are crossing the border for some many years rather go to spain which is actually where part of their relatives are from.  Is this why I see so many beautiful woman on Mexican T.V  who have light colored hair and complextions and more of a european facial structure.  Do any of the Spanish relatives come back to visit or are they not allowed past the border of mexico. I know that there still are pure bred indians living in the mountainous regions of Mexico, but for some reason they do not get along very well with the mexicans, due to mistreatment.

One can imagine there was some mortality among the males at the time of the Conquest. Perhaps this has led to some resentment.


definite/indefinite better than a direct "no".  We really want to do this outting, but childcare responsibilites and work schedules are conflicting.  Would you feel rejected if someone gave you this answer and said to keep checking with him to arrange it because he is at the mercy of his ex and I have work.  Please don't say if you really wanted...these are legitimate conflicts.

I would think that most people have to be flexible in your situation. If the person is feeling rejected because of the situation I don't think that person should be in the relationship to begin with.


It is on the right and it kind of moved down my hip and now my thigh hurts too.  If this has happened to you what did you do to make it go away and how well did it work.

Yeah, sound like sciatica. A trapped nerve in the base of the spine. Lean with your back against something solid, like a wall & lift your body weight off the floor an inch or two with your arms straight. If the pain goes, it's probably sciatica.\nI've had it for 30 years. No problem if you know what you're dealing with.\nLie on your back, feet on the floor, knees up & gently move your legs from side to side about 10 times. It releases the trapped nerve.


It drives me crazy that it last that long and she does not like it also.

It's normal, you idiot.  She should be asking that, not you.

The thing is that I don't understand how come both  Christianity and Judaism follow OT, but the Jews don't accept the coming of Jesus as Son of God based on OT, and the Christians base the coming of Jesus as Son of God, based also on OT. See the contradiction?

The basic beliefs of Christianity about Jesus are against what the Bible says, and so Real Jews cannot believe in Jesus at all.\n\nThe Christian understanding is that the Messiah, Jesus, died for the sins of the people. The messiah is supposed to be a human sacrifice that is the blood sacrifice necessary for the forgiveness of sin.\n\nBut we are taught in our Torah that no one can die for the sins of another. In Deuteronomy 24:16 it specifically says this:\n\nDeuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not \nbe put to death for the children, neither \nshall the children be put to death for\nthe fathers: \nevery man shall be put to death for his \nown sin (eesh b’chet-o yumatu).\n\nIn Exodus 32:30-35, Moses tries to offer himself to atone for the sins of the people. To be written out of Gd's book, means to be written out of the Book of Life, which means Moses was asking to die for the sins of the People. Gd's response is No, it does not work that way, each man dies for his own sin:\n\nExodus 32:30-35 And it came to pass on the \nmorrow, that Moses said unto the people, \nYe have sinned a great sin: and now I will \ngo up unto the Etrnl; perhaps I shall make \nan atonement for your sin. And Moses \nreturned unto the Etrnl, and said, Oh, \nthis people have sinned a great sin, and \nhave made them gods of gold. Yet now, if \nthou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, \nblot me, I pray thee, out of thy book \nwhich thou hast written. And the Etrnl \nsaid unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned \nagainst me, him will I blot out of my \nbook. \n\nThe whole of chapter 18 of the book of Ezekiel is about this idea, that no one can die for someone else's sin. Further, this chapter of Ezekiel teaches us that all we have to do for Gd's forgiveness is to stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd will forgive us:::\n\nEzekiel 18:1-4; 20-24; 26-27 .....Behold, all \nsouls are mine; as the soul of the father, so \nalso the soul of the son is mine: the soul \nthat sinneth, it shall die. Eze 18:20 The soul \nthat sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not \nbear the iniquity of the father, neither shall \nthe father bear the iniquity of the son: the \nrighteousness of the righteous shall be upon \nhim, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be \nupon him. But if the wicked will turn from all \nhis sins that he hath committed, and keep all \nmy statutes, and do that which is lawful and \nright, he shall surely live, he shall not die. \nAll his transgressions that he hath committed, \nthey shall not be mentioned unto him: in his \nrighteousness that he hath done he shall live. \nHave I any pleasure at all that the wicked \nshould die? saith the Etrnl Gd: and not that \nhe should return from his ways, and live?.... \nEze 18:26 When a righteous man turneth away \nfrom his righteousness, and committeth \niniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity \nthat he hath done shall he die. Again, when \nthe wicked man turneth away from his \nwickedness that he hath committed, and doeth \nthat which is lawful and right, he shall save \nhis soul alive. \n\nSo, the Bible is clear, no one can die for the sins of another, and this means that Jesus cannot die for anyone else's sins.\n\nChristians also believe that one needs a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin, that one who does not have such a blood sacrifice will die in their sins, and go to hell, except for the sacrifice of Jesus.\n\nThis, too, is UnBiblical. The Bible describes blood sacrifices for the forgiveness of sin in the Book of Leviticus. But it is in Leviticus itself, in the middle of the discussion of the sin sacrifices, that we are taught that we do not need a blood sacrifice to be forgiven for our sins. Offering a blood sacrifice was an expensive thing to do for the family offering the animal. Was forgiveness then, to be only for the rich? No, because if one could not afford a blood sacrifice then one who sins could bring flour, which has no blood and no life as their sacri

I have a dark spot on my toenails.  One on each and only on the toe.  It doesn't hurt and there is nothing else wrong.  What is this?

You should see a doctor to be sure. You have not given enough details about them, how long you've had them, your overall health, etc., and only a doctor who sees them can really tell you. It's really important that you see doctor if you are a diabetic! For a diabetic, any foot problems, even seemingly minor ones like this, can lead to more serious complications.\n\nThe spots might be bruises from shoes, especially if you are walking/running in them a lot. When I was a marathon runner, I got dark spots on each of my big toenails. I went to a doctor and he said that they were brusises under the nailbed. They were caused by the toes of the running shoes hitting those spots over and over. They were already damaged, so he told me to try a different pair of shoes and/or run less. The spots stayed there a very long time. The nails "lifted" and I had to be very careful to keep them dry and use a solution to prevent nail fungus from growing under them. I did as directed by my Dr. and did not get nail fungus, but one of the nails eventually lifted off completely-gone! It took a long time (several months) to grow back-it wasn't pretty!\n\nIf your nails are also yellowish, you may already have nailfungus too. Best to see a doctor as soon as possible for a proper diagnosis.

Alpha particles are basically Helium atoms, so they are the easiest to stop. Air itself is enough to stop Alhpa particles from moving, or a piece of paper.\n\nBeta particles are negative charges ejected from the nucleus itself (a neutron becoming a proton), and is harder to stop (a piece of aluminium about half an inch will stop it). \n\nGamma particles are waves (I think) which can only be stopped by a thick slab of concrete, or a piece of lead. \n\nYour skin will NOT be able to stop them, but it will be burnt by all 3 types of radiation.

Toshiba has a list of suppliers on their website.\n\nFind "Click here to locate a premier service provider in your area" on the page.\n\nEvery manufacturer is different and keyboard covers aren't really in high demand. So you probably won't see a lot of stores carry them unless it's their niche market. You should contact them beforehand so you don't waste your time visiting them.

Bears, giraffes, okapi, and Chow Chows have black tongues.  Almost everything else has pink tongues.  Do these dark colored tongues serve a purpose.  What other animals have black tongues?

in the case of giraffes and okapi, they have very long, nearly prehensile tongues used to strip leaves and branches from trees.  the dark colour is due to higher levels of melanin in the tongues.  granules of melanin in the integument of the tongue help to strengthen and protect the tongue from mechanical injury to some degree, but their primary 'purpose' is to protect the tongue from sunburn.\n\nas you can imagine, a giraffe's tongue gets quite a bit of exposure to harsh African sunshine.  now imagine getting a sunburn on your tongue.  ouch.\n\nin the case of chows, the colour may have been bred into the dogs for some reason (i.e. aesthetics) by the breeders, or more likely, the genes for that colour were linked to another trait that the breeders desired.\n\ni'm not aware of bears having black tongues.  which species is that?

I use to use drugs for 2 years everyday 2 times a day, I use to also use to be an alcoholic too!  My parents never knew this, but i want to tell them cause I have soo much guilt should I tell them!  Also I have lately been wanting to go out and find some stuff to smoke!  Should I check into a rehab place or just beat this on my own?

Amy, I have a friend hooked on crack and he has been beating it on his own for 12 years and still doing it.You can't beat it alone. He is still addicted and will forever be addicted unless he asks for help. I hope you get help, we all have had to ask for it at some point in our lives. Help is GOOD!!!


Religion pre-supposes:\n1)God may love you, but you may do something that gives Him no choice but to stop loving you.\n2)God may not love you now, but you could do something that gives Him no choice but to begin loving you.\n\nThen religion supplies the list of things that you can do to get God to love you (ie. worship, pilgrimage, attire, pray, believe, etc.)\nReligion also supplies a list of things that you can do that causes God to disapprove of you (ie. sin, heresy, blasphemy, lie, cheat, steal, etc.)\n\nI am questioning the premise, that God is so easily controlled.

God does not stop loving you no matter what you do. God loves killers and homosexuals and republicans and everyone else.\n\nI do not understand why God chooses to punish us for sinning, but rest assured that he does not do it out of hate. God wants us to make our own decisions to worship him or not because God is very insecure and needs the unforced love of his creations to feel whole, but just as you can love or a child even when they have done bad, the sky daddy loves you.

I ran out of checks, and Diebold won't take cash.\nAdvice?

I think the election will boil down to which party nominates the candidate perceived as the most moderate.  The Republicans must nominate someone who can distinguish himself (or herself, nah won't happen) from Bush while not alienating himself from the grass roots conservatives, who are largely religious.  I think that Guilliani or McCain would make great general election candidates but neither will cut it in the primaries.  My money (but not my vote) is on former Governor and now Senator George Allen from Virginia.  He'll loose in the general election though.\n\nHillary will have the money to run an effective campaign and she's moved to the middle on lots of issues such as supporting the war and even moving to the right of Bush on some key issues like terrorism.  But there are enough people that will vote against her (not for someone else, just against her) that I think Dems may pause before selecting her.  I give her a 50-50 chance of making it to the general.  If she does make it to the general, she'll probably win the whole thing because the GOP won't nominate anyone sensible.  If I were a dem, which I'm not (I'm a very, very moderate Republican), I'd vote for Evan Bayh former Governor and now Senator from Indiana.  He'd stack up quite favorably against Allen and get a lot of the moderate Republican cross-over vote.


baseball and football most expensive and rare, also I would like to know which of the cards is most wanted

The best sources are those who have nothing to gain from you.\n\nI'd begin with the Beckett Price Guides -- they come out every month as well as a Beckett Baseball Plus and Beckett Football Plus, which is larger, (has more cards).   The Plus comes out every two months.\n\nBeckett also has an online service.   There's a fee, but you can do an inventory on your cards.   That's something to consider if you have a LOT.\n\nWhich of the cards is most wanted depends on how hot the player is today.   Mark McGwire today, is not as "wanted" as the year he broke Roger Maris' record.\n\nRyan Leaf was most wanted when he was drafted, and well, you know what he's worth today!\n\nOne final thing -- don't be so quick to sell your cards.  If you're new at this, you might get taken advantage of by an opportunistic dealer.   Or, you might price the card too low, or sell it before the athlete peaks.\n\nAnd, if you're like most collectors, you didn't start buying cards for the money.   They have sentimental value, and believe me, as the years go by, those rare cards will increase in value.


I have a 14' aluminium boat and most of the seam are leaking!I need to find something that I can paint on or someother way to seal it.

Look into a product called Alumaloy. It's like welding that you can do with an ordinary propane torch. They claim its stronger than steel and will bond to any kind of metal.

What a Police Officer or Army Officer Feels, when one or more of his subordinates die during any Mission or Operation? I have seen a movie related to the feelings of an Officer. What do you think? Plz. Serious Answers only.

I personally have never had that happen before but i know that when it happens to people who are officers rather in the military or civilian, they dont like to talk about the losses. They try to see the good in every situation. Being an MP in the military, we have to learn to trust each other and since we work with each other everyday we all tend to become like a big family, and when you loose a family member no matter how close you are to them, it hurts. It's like if you were a kid and you had a puppy that your parents gave to you and you loved it to death. Well, one day it got ran over and how would you feel? You would probably feel let down, and depressed and not want to think about it again after you barried it because it hurt so bad. That's how it is. It's just like asking a solider how many people he killed in a war? Its something you dont do because a true solider doesnt want to admit it. It's not something to keep track of a boast about.


Need the teams as they were listed in the National league and American league ... proper names at that time please.

I need to melt some butter and I need to know how much energy it takes to change butter from its solid to liquid state.


I heard that if you put eggyolk on your face due to acne, it will clear your acne up in no time

yes it does!\n\nAbout four months ago my grandmother sent me a newspaper clipping that contained a letter to Ann Landers. In the letter a woman explained how she had cured her acne using egg yolk as recommended by an east indian woman she had met. First, you separate the white from the yolk and then you smear the yolk all over your face; let it dry for ten minutes then wash it off. Do this every day for a month and then twice a month for three more months.\n\nAnyway, I started this process just after Christmas and now my face is almost totally clear. I didn't follow their instructions exactly;\n\nI did it once a day for two months and now I do it once a week.\n\nApparently egg yolk has large amounts of vitamin a in it, which is used in retinol and in retin a, and that is why it works, but the main thing is that it does. Smearing egg yolk onto your body is nasty at first, but don't let that deter you, you will be gald you did.


'Lie' is correct.\n\n'Lie' is an intransitive verb, meaning that the action is not being transferred to something else; it does not take a direct object. 'Lay' is transitive, meaning that the action is transferred to something else; it does take a direct object. So 'lie' is used to mean 'recline,' while 'lay' is used to mean 'put.' One 'puts' something somewhere. 'Put' is always used with a direct object; so is 'lay.'\nExample 1: He lies on the bed. (no direct object)\nExample 2: He lays a pillow on the bed. (pillow is the direct object)\nThe confusion, though, arises when using the past tense. 'Lay' is the past tense form of 'lie.'\nExample 3: He lay on the bed. (no direct object)\nExample 4: He laid a pillow on the bed. (pillow is the direct object)\n\nHope this helps!

Scientific Accuracy of the Qur'an Amazes University of Toronto Professor\n\nThis message is based on an article entitled "Highlights of Human Embryology in the Koran and the Hadith" by Dr. Keith Moore, Professor of Anatomy and Chairman of the Department, Faculty of Medicine, at the University of Toronto, 1982.\n\nDr. Moore points out that the study of how the human embryo develops in the mother's womb could not progress significantly without the use of microscopes. Microscopes were not invented until the 17th century A.D., and were not used in this field of study until the 18th century. Therefore when Dr. Moore studied certain statements in the Qur'an on this subject, he remarked, "I was amazed at the scientific accuracy of these statements which were made in the 7th century A.D."\n\nThe Qur'an in 39:6 states that God made us in the wombs of our mothers in stages.\n\nDr. Moore comments: "The realization that the embryo develops in stages in the uterus was not discussed or illustrated until the

i wanna be a surgeon but how long do you go to school?

It takes about 20 years, including Grade school, Middle School, High School, then Pre-Med School and then Med. School. Then you go into Internship. Normally, interns are paid in the form of allowances, though some hospitals do pay their interns regular wages.


Just wondering if anyone knew some signs or symptoms of worry, or worrying too much if that makes any sense to anyone out there.

yes...worrying too much is where you actually lose sleep or cannot concentrate on other things due to worrying about whatever....it can be a serious illness that leads to treatment! A little worrying is normal though...especially if you are under deep stress...I worry more when I am stressing.

Reply facility on Yahoo! Answers did not work. First it said that my answer was too long, which is impossible because it only allows so many characters, then I shortened it o less than 100 characters, and sent it, and I got another OOPS that it couldn't confirm Trevor's address, after I just received the answer one hour ago. Extremely frustrating, especially after spending 15 minutes providing a detailed technical response.

...when you're still just a friend. What's the difference between a compliment and all out flirting? When a girl (who has a bf) really wants to hang out with you, does that mean anything?

Maybe she sort of has feelings for you, even though she already has a boyfriend. It's possible to be with someone, and still be attracted to someone else, right? But maybe she just has really warm feelings for you as a friend, and isn't quite attracted enough to want you as a boyfriend. Sometimes if you're really good friends with someone, you might occasionally have stronger feelings for them, even if most of the time you know that they aren't really what you're looking for in a mate. I'd say you can probably tell the difference between a compliment and flirting by her body language. If she touches you a lot, it might be flirting. Or if she's attracted to you, she might smile differently--a smile that says she can't help smiling at you, instead of one that just seems polite and off-hand. Either way, what's the problem? Affection and compliments are nice, even if they come from someone you're not dating, don't you think?


I am thinking of buying a Toshiba Satellite Intel Celeron M 380 1.6GHz Laptop (M70-CL1), but the ram is only 512 and I want to add an additional 512 ram, can this be done without paying a computer tech guy? What would be the cost of the additional ram?

Yes, all laptops these days come with the ability to add/change RAM.  On the Toshiba's, there is a little door underneath that has to be opened (it's got one screw to keep it from coming open when you didn't want it to).  \n\nAlso, you don't need to buy the same brand of RAM, they are all compatible, you just need to buy the same speed & type (DDR or DDR2, PC3200 or PC2700).  Although, if your laptop has PC2700, you can almost always use PC3200, since you would be running it slower.\n\nHere's a link to quite a few SO-DIMMS (laptop memory): http://www.newegg.com/ProductSort/SubCategory.asp?SubCategory=381


i often get symptoms like pain in both sides of chest. not too severe. Also, on the arms and there is a full ness of the stomach. Breathing becomes difficlt due to bloated stomach and palpitations with mild giddiness follow. After several consultations, doctor has given me medicines that aid digestion. However, though there is respite presently, it aggravates as soon as medication is stopped. Why does this happen and is there a permanent remedy?


Hmm. I've been a year without a drink, and am finding that boredom is slowly tempting me back to alcohol... Any ideas?

Are you working your program? If your not doing any work, you will surely drink again. I got to a point in my recovery where i stopped doing the work. I relapsed (surprise, surprise) This time around, when I feel myself getting bored, I do something to help someone who is still suffering. It helps me remember where I've been, and where I don't want to be anymore. It also keeps me out of my pity pot. "Pour me, pour me, pour me another drink" This program is for people who WANT it. I had to take every drink I took to get here. You'll know when your truly ready. Have you had enough pain yet?\n"It Works If You Work It"

My best male friend who is 4 years older than me has just proclaimed that he loves me, but I don't love him back. I've only ever liked him as a friend. I told him I loved him too, so I wouldn't hurt his feelings. He moved about a week ago, and lives 2 hours drive away. I see him once a month. But recently, I have really liked this guy at my school. He seems really shy, and so am I. I fear if I go out with this guy, my best friend may find out and he would be heartbroken. I have not yet found the courage to even talk to the guy I like, I'm seriously that shy. I guess I'm kinda feeling guilty for having feelings for this guy when my friend loves me, and I guess I feel I should love him, but I don't. I'm sorry if this is really confusing. I'm only 14, and my life has been really confusing lately. Any suggestions/advice on who to go out with or whatever?

Life is confusing at 14. It's confusing at a lot of other ages too. Just look at all of the different answers you have and you will see what I mean. Here's my best advice.\n\nWrite your friend who moved and tell him that when you told him that you loved him it was true, but your love for him is a friend's love, not a romantic love. Tell him that his friendship is important and that you love having him as a friend, but the romance is not there for you. \n\nFind some ways to be around the new shy guy. It's ok to be shy at 14 - for guys and girls. If you get into some of the same activities you will have some chances to find out if there is a spark between you. Be patient. If you are both shy it may take some time. At 14, it's ok to use friends to pass along the message that you might be interested in getting to know him better. That can work pretty well sometimes.\n\nI like that it matters to you how your friend feels and that you are honest about your fears and feelings. That makes you a lot more special than some of the people who have answered you. I hope it goes great for you and that this works out just perfect for you. Good luck.

My Bp went to 236/168 on a treadmill exercise test today. I had no chest pain but a pain up the front of my neck. Was this blood pressure high? Also was the pain in my neck related to the exercise or could it have been my heart, as i have this pain after i have chest pain.

Was this a "self test" or one supervised by a doctor or cardiologist?  If it's a self test I would advise you to see a doctor before getting on a treadmill again.  In fact, see a doctor anyway.  That's a very high blood pressure.  An increase in diastolic blood pressure of more than 10 mmHg (optimal is <120) during or after exercise represents an unstable form of hypertension, and may be associated with coronary artery disease.  At 236 you could be classified as well above third stage hypertension.  Really, see a doctor.


Just for background. I am currently dating a man I thought I would spend the rest of my life with(John). He is great and I did love him once. I just don't think I love him anymore.We are both not happy but are trying to get things to the way they were. We have been together for almost 6 years. Eric came back in my life about 6 months ago via emails. He travels alot and I have not seen him for 5 years. He has no idea how I feel. But I am madly in love with him because of how I remember him. We had feelings for each other at school but never got together. He is my age where as John is 6 years older. What should I do? Do I leave john and start out on my own, or try and try in a relationship which I don't think can be saved? Please help.

if the now relation is doomed --walk away.\nbut don't expect miracles!!, like living happyly ever after with eric.\n..live real!!, be well..


or the difference between a:\nadjective phrase and adj clause, an adverb phrase and adv clause, an infinitive, apositive and gerund?

I bought a pair of sneakers on eBay a few days ago, and it turns out that they are a mixed pair (the shoes are 2 different sizes). They were not described as this and the seller admitted her mistake but only wants to refund the price of the shoes and not the shipping. Is there any way I can get a refund for the total price of the shoes, including the shipping? Thanks!

With it being a mistake on her part, you can file a complaint on ebay.  Unfortunately, nothing will likely come of it.\n\nYour best course of action is to threaten with negative feedback and she may credit it back

You have an excellent short-term memory and live in California. You go to your girlfriend's house for the western edition every night and can answer 90% of the questions before the contestants do.

What reason do you give her that you don't want to go on the show and earn a lot of money for the both of them?

What you are discribing is a complex way of lying - "bearing false witness" - so yes, by definition it would be a sin.\n\nIf she wants to marry you because of a lie you keep telling, you're both in trouble.

Intelligence: She needs to be conversant on a wide range of topics...no Valley Girls need apply.\n4.

When did America become the police, finanical support and responsible party for the whole freakin' world?\nPeople expect us to sit here, hand out money, take care of their problems, support them when they have problems AND sit here and not respond when they attack us! We give money, send soldiers when asked and politically support them but we aren't allowed to express our opinions? Or protect our borders? Or retaliate for the 3000 people who were killed simply because they were in America?

After we broke our isolationism and joined World War II.  We've always been imperialistic though, just look at Manifest Destiny and TR's Big Stick corollary to it.\n\nWe go to all these countries to help out and many extremists assume that we are there for other than alltruistic purposes.


OK I have fair skin and dirty blonde hair. I have very mild acne and I have a GPA of 3.6-3.8. I am in a club, have lots of friends. I come from a big family and I will admit that I'm fat. People say I have an amazing personality too and am not afraid to speak my mind. So why do all of the guys I like just like me as a friend?

Nothing's wrong with you, girlfriend. It's the men who have the problem, not you. I fthey don't like you for being you, they are definetly not worth it.  Stay true to yourself and you shall be fine. I think that men who aren't interested in a girl like you who seems very nice are just idiots, jerks, and stupid guys who aren't willing to look inside of you to get to know that person inside of you that makes you, you.

This Ad campaigns will help you earn some money if you & your freinds can spare some time during weekneds or evenings. Hope this helps

I'm doing an essay paper on it for english.

Buddhism (Pāli Buddhadhamma or Sanskrit Buddhadharma) is a religion and philosophy based on the teachings of the Buddha, Siddhārtha Gautama, who lived in the 5th century BCE. Buddhism spread throughout the ancient Indian sub-continent in the five centuries following his death, and propagated into Central, Southeast, and East Asia over the next two millennia. Today, Buddhism is divided primarily into three traditions, Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Buddhism continues to attract followers worldwide, and, with around 376 million followers, it is considered a major world religion. It has attracted many intellectual followers and supporters such as H.G.Wells and Albert Einstein who stated that 'Buddhism is the only religion able to cope with modern scientific needs'. Buddhism has been accepted by many as the religion that does not conflict with science.\n\nNumerous distinct groups have developed since the passing of Gautama Buddha, with diverse teachings that vary widely in practice, philosophical emphasis, and culture. However, there are certain doctrines which are common to all schools of Buddhism.\n\nThe enlightenment (Bodhi) of the Buddha Gautama was simultaneously his liberation from suffering and his insight into the nature of reality. What the Buddha awakened to was the truth of dependent origination (Sanskrit: pratītya-samutpāda, Pali: paticca samuppada). Any phenomenon ‘exists’ only because of the ‘existence’ of other phenomena in a complex web of cause and effect. For sentient beings, this amounts to a never-ending cycle of rebirth (samsara) according to the law of karma and vipaka. Because all things are thus conditioned and transient (anicca), they have no real, independent identity (anatta) and so do not truly ‘exist’, although to ordinary minds they do appear to exist. All phenomena are thus fundamentally insubstantial and empty (sunya). Wise human beings, who see things as they are (yatha-bhuta-ñana-dassana), renounce attachment and clinging which cause suffering (dukkha), transform the energy of desire into awareness and understanding, and eventually attain nirvana.\n\nIn the sixth century B.C., Buddhism was founded by Siddhartha Gautama.  A biography of Siddhartha Gautama was not written during his lifetime and the earliest accounts of life were not recorded until some three hundred years after his death.  Because there has been much debate by historians on where to draw the line between history and legend, the history probably contains much myth.  However, this is the history is accepted by most Buddhists and forms a model for all Buddhists to live by.\n\n \n\nBorn around 563 B.C., Siddhartha Gautama was son to King Suddhodana Gautama, a raja (or chieftain) of the Sakya clan and family of the Kshatriya caste of ancient Bharata.  His father reigned over a small district in the Himalayas between India and Nepal.\n\n \n\nAt birth he received the name Siddhartha, meaning "he who has accomplished his objectives", but was also called Sakyamuni ("the wise sage of the Sakya clan"), Ghagavat ("blessed  with happiness"), Tathagata ("the one who has gone thus"), Jina ("the victorious"), and, probably most common, the Buddha or "the enlightened one".\n\n \n\nWhen Siddhartha was an infant, a sage visited the King's court and prophesied that Siddhartha would become either a great ruler like his father if he remained in the palace or, if he went out into the world, he would become a Buddha.  The King believed that if Siddhartha was exposed to any human misery, he would leave his home to seek the truth.  Therefore, he ordered his subjects to shield Siddhartha from any form of evil or suffering.\n\n \n\nAt age sixteen, Siddhartha won the hand of his cousin by performing 12 feats in the art of archery.  He may have taken more wives during his life, but his cousin Yashodara was his principle wife.\n\n \n\nDespite his fathers attempts to kee

The codeforcement officer and my neighbor are friends, and the neighbors feel like we are all being victimized by the local athorities. There are much more important things that the athoritys can be doing, but instead they perfer to harrasse the good tax payers of this comunity. What can be done?

That doesn't pass the smell test. I would go to the police with this and file harassment charges.


I want to know all about the molecules and atoms and atomic numbers.

Atoms consist of protons and neutrons in a nucleus, with electrons in shells round it. \nIn an uncharged/neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons are equal and this is the same as the atomic number. In the periodic table, the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. \nA molecule is two or more atoms chemically bonded together.\ne.g. Ne is an atom and H20 is a molecule.

Thierry Henry is the world's best striker.\nRonaldinho is the world's best midfielder and all around player.\nDavid Beckham is the world's best free-kicker.\nManchester Uniteds backfielder, Rio Ferdidnand, is terribly over-rated.\nChelsea's defender, Terry, is awesome.\nJust some of my opinions.\nDo you agree...disagree...why?

Henry is the world's best striker.  no question.\nronaldinho is the world's best player.  you don't become fifa player of the year two years in a row if you're not the world's best player.  but i wouldn't call him a midfielder.  he's the best forward in the game hands down.  it's just that as the forward who usually lines up behind the striker, he has to do more than just score goals.  his passes and dribbling are sick.  if you want great midfielders, look at the likes of figo and zidane.  but they're past their prime, so take a look at those up and coming superstars...frank lampard, steven gerrard and michael ballack (if 29years old is up and coming).  they won't score goals like ronaldinho (maybe lampard), but they control the flow of the game better.  \nas for beckham, he used to be the world's best free-kicker, when he was with Manchester United.  He still is, and his long balls are beautiful.  but he's a much better player now.  he's a better all around midfielder than he was five years ago.\nRio Ferdinand cost Manchester United alot of games this year.  without him, they could've had a better December and maybe even the Premiership title.  \nJohn Terry is awesome.  You don't win the PFA award (last year) as england's best player, especially as a defender, unless you're fuckin awesome.  he just might be the best player in a stacked chelsea squad.

when i go to my windows task manager i see a bunch of numbers that i don't understand.  i think if i had a better understanding of what they ment, i would be able to use my computer more efficiently.

pf usage is "page file" usage, which is a variable amount of hard drive space that is dedicated to your total system memory.  When your free RAM is low, the computer will start using this space to store RAM instructions.  Because hard drive access is much slower than that of RAM, this can reduce performance - but reduces the risk of your computer locking up due to low amounts of free RAM.  The page file is also referred to as 'virtual memory' or the 'swap file'.\n\nThe size of your page file can be changed by going to Start - Control Panel - System - Advanced tab - clicking 'Settings' under the 'Performance' section - Advanced tab - and clicking 'Change' under the 'Virtual Memory' section.\n\nWindows XP uses the page file differently than other operating systems, so it is not rare to see significant usage.  However, because the page file is significantly slower than your RAM, it is best to keep it close to the start of your drive and make it a set size, not variable.  Generally, a system total of 2.5GB should be good for recent applications.  For example, if you have 1GB of physical RAM, setting your page file to 1024MB will give a total of 2GBs of available memory space.\n\nIncreasing the size of the page file is not an alternative to adding more RAM.


Sorry to sound dumb but we do not use this phrase in Australian politics.

Two U.S. Presidents have been impeached (Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson).  Neither were convicted.  An impeachment is the same as an indictment, where charges are filed against the President or a federal judge.  Congress votes to impeach and then the Senate tries the case and votes on his innocence or guilt.


questions that say \nhow do i know if he likes me?\nhow do you talk to your crush?\nwhat do i do, i like this boy but...?

It's annoying cause you'd think they'd just read other questions like it. I mean when you ask a question, it lists other questions like yours right under the box you're typing in. You'd think they have enough sense in their heads (even if they are teenagers) to just click on the other questions and read what advice they're giving there. No, they have to make users retype the advice. I've just learned that there's nothing you can do to stop the 200 questions that are asked like this a day. So I just put the link to another question like it in my answer...and still get my two points :D. If they want to be stupid enough and not look at similar questions, I'll keep sending them to where they can look for themselves, while trying to be nice about it. When all I want to say is "Look at all these other questions and answers you f*cking stupid pinhead!!" :D


please could you tell me if it was a hacker

I've tried internet searchs with little success.  I know they were in bankruptcy, with several lawsuits against them, but never heard the outcome.  I think they may have been bought out, but inquiries have gotten no response.

Here is what I have found:\n\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=TCAHQ.PK\nhttp://www.marketocracy.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Portfolio.woa/ps/StockGraphPage/source=BmPlAoCbDjAlCaFoMaKiAbBg/maxDays=90\n\nIt appears to still be trading but, Touch America Holdings, Inc. filed for Chapter 11 liquidating plan in July 2004, which was confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware in October 2004. The company sold substantially all of its Internet services, private line, and dark fiber assets to 360networks Corporation, as well as certain dark fiber assets to Qwest Communications, Inc. in December 2003. With the exception of certain wireless services, Touch America ceased operations, as of February 29, 2004. Previously, the company, through its subsidiaries, operated as a broadband telecommunications company, providing customized voice, data, and video transport services. Touch America was founded in 1961.\n\nHope this helps


How many people have you met online that you will never really get a chance to really meet in person?  I mean, let's say you are totally compatible with someone that you've met online but they live in a different state or even a different country than you do.  What is the point of forming a bond with these people online if there is such a small probability of actually being with them in the future?

Depends if you want friendship, or a close relationship.\nI guess you're talking about a relationship.  You might communicate with someone who you get on so well with that you go and meet them, and it goes on from there.\n\nI guess the flipside is that there are probably people you'd be compatible with who leave very near you, who you don't get to meet at all.\n\nIsn't that funny (or annoying)!


I have norton installed which picks up Dialer.GBdial and Dialer.DialPlatform which it promptly blocks and deletes. But no sooner has it done that it reappears. I have used Adaware and spybot. And many other free programmes but to no avil. Pleas help me

You are most likely running Windows XP.\nThis operating system has a neat little feature called system restore, and what is mostly likely happening is that the dialer is also saved in a system restore file, and getting restored.\n\nDownload Crap Cleaner and install\n\nhttp://www.ccleaner.com/ccdownload.asp\n\nAlso grab Spy Sweeper and install it's free trial product. Many tech forum indicate that this will get rid of the infection. You may still have other nasty stuff on your computer, and those will have to addressed individually, sorry.\nhttp://www.download.com/Webroot-Spy-Sweeper/3000-8022_4-10405877.html\n\nRight click your "my computer" icon and left click on properties. Click the system restore tab. Turn OFF system restore.\n\nDisconnect your computer from the network/modem by unplugging the wire from either the phone jack or your modem in the back of your computer. If you dial up, just don't dial up.\n\nRun Norton, Spy Sweeper, and Crap Cleaner. They should also be getting rid of your infected System Restore files. Once the scans are complete. Restart your computer. Make sure that the dail is indeed gone. The go back and turn back on System Restore. (I would recommend a REAL back up tool, like one of Nortons back up utilities)\n\nYou should be all set, and can now uninstall Crap Cleaner and Spy Sweeper, plus whatever else you installed to get rid of it. Many antispy/ad/malware programs run at start up and this can hog system resources.\n\nGood Luck


I can access the site but no where is there any way to download the stuff they promised.  I called customer support and they "cannot find my phone number".  They also cannot look up my account with the "customer id number" that THEY provided.

Can you try to go back to the website & try again to download the show? Maybe your internet setting have diasbled downloading & you need to download via FTP. Of course, that is if the company is legit. \n\nIf you have a problem with missing TV shows, TIVO is the absolute best!!! We have had it since it was first released, so we've had it for at least 5 years now! There is no problem with recording shows, and all shows are copyrighted. The new TV probably has a DVD recorder, so my guess is that maybe you can't save the shows onto a DVD for redistribution but I'm sure that you can save them to the Tivo hardrive for your future viewing. I could NOT live without my Tivo!!! You'll never try to have to buy a missed TV episode again. (: Tivo even records shows that I might like due to it having artificial intellignece. A regular recorder probably doesn't have this feature. In the morning, I wake up to find shows that I like and shows that I've programmed as a Season Pass. I never miss the Sopranos again. plus I get other shows I like. Tivo has so many features, it really makes watching TV enjoyable. \n\nNOTE:\nI was listening to the Kim Kommander Computer Radio Show, and a caller answerd a POP UP ad on the Internet for a TRIAL MOVIE. He had three days to cancel and he forgot to. Now the company who gave him the trial movies wants their money and they have messed up his PC. They will continue to mess up his PC even LOCK it up until they get the $$$. So, be careful of POPUPS and do have a Firewall, AntiVirus & Anti_Pest reunning on your PC. Be careful about offers for TV shows or movies unless you know who the company selling you the service is. Did you get ripped off? I don't know. Is there a phone number or website that you can go to to ask this company for help.

When this man was "talking" in the video, DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT IT WAS REALLY A PERSON WHO SUPPORT AN AMNESTY OR MAYBE A MINUTEMEN PERSON TALKING JUST IN THE PLACE OF ANOTHER PERSON.I think that this video is some how not true.\nIf I want a amnesty I would not say what this "person" was saying. I think that is some else talking maybe a minutemen supporter who wants put usin a bad position.\n\nThere were also many Americans flags in the protest, Why didn't they showed them.THE SIDE OF THE PERSON WHO MADE THIS "VIDEO" IS CLEAR.\n\n\nWHAT DO YOU THINK?

Since it was taken from the watchdog website I belive it was tampered with.The audio is old and the pictures are from the recent rallies.

hi friends, in one sitting, how many glasses do you drink of wine on any given day/night...is drinking a bottle (750ml) in one night be considered alot for one person? would this be unhealthy to have one bottle of wine once a week or twice? thanks..

For the average size man, 2-3 glasses (5 oz. each) is considered healthy and for a woman, it's 1-2 glasses. Drinking an entire bottle alone probably shouldn't be done any more than once a week, because it does more damage to your liver.


I am working with Fireworks in creating a website, and need to know how to place other images from My Computer onto a Fireworks MX document, since it is a .png file.

Why do we celebrate good friday (I don't) when Jesus was not put to death on that day?

Jesus Christ was executed on the Friday before Easter.  He was executed on a Friday.  That's why it is called Good Friday.


I'm planning to study law in the states and I'm not sure how things work as I am from New Zealand, abit confuse there when it comes to choosing law school, as some non ABA law school do not require LSAT, and most ABA law schools do requires LSAT.  Can someone please clarify? Thanks

If you want a law degree that will actually allow you to practice law in the United States, you should look solely at ABA law schools. \nHere in the States, actually practicing law requires that you take (and pass) a 'bar exam' after completing law school (you actually take a portion of the exam while still in law school, but the big part is after). These exams are administered on a state level, so that if you want to practice law in California, you must pass the California bar exam. Some states have what is called reciprocity that makes it so states will accept a bar exam  score(or a certain amount of legal experience) from another state. You can find out about a state's reciprocity bydoing a quick search, or visiting the website for that state's bar assosciation. \nThe problem with non-ABA schools is that only two or three states will even allow you to take the bar exam unless you attend an ABA accredited law school. That said two of those states are California and Florida. You should look at the bar pass rates for the schools as well, since unless you pass the bar you can't practice law in the states.\nIf you do end up having to take the LSAT I have heaps of advice on that (I scored in the 99.9th percentile).\nyoungnedofthehill@yahoo.com

I have stopped using perfumed detergents and not significantly changed my diet.  Are allergies easier to catch as you get older - I'm 35.\n\nJ.

Some allergies DO develop as you get older.  That happened to me and I have been told that it is not unusual.


To all girls, I tell you, you’re the best creature on earth. The problem is sometimes I see girls kissing, hugging, and sitting on each others hips. A lot of my friends do it and a lot of girls do it. No offence girls but isn’t that weird, isn’t that the way lesbians act??? I mean I cant hug a guy for more than 2 seconds

Some girls are lesbians not all girls are lesbians.\nBeing affectionate to others of your gender doesnt make you homosexual.\nIn some cultures hugging and kissing is very normal boys with boys, girls with girls.\nThere are different ways of kissing and fondling and I think the difference is very obvious.\nA warm hug and a big kiss in the cheek is a natural, normal and nice way to let the other person you are fond of them.\nI am argentinian and in my country we all greet with a kiss, and I think it is wonderful!

Did anyone actually read the book before the movie even came out?  I read it, and i must say, it is a really good book, so when i found out it was going to be made into a movie, i was ecstatic.  Did you all know that it was also an actual true story?  It was told to the auhtor through an interview with that woman.

wow i didnt know the book was baised on true events... i thought it was totally fictional.\n\ni was impressed with how well they stuck to the book. i really enjoyed the book myself, although, it lost its furvor in the end, after the war, it just seemed like all the passion was gone and they ended it too quickly. The movie was the same.\n\ni had heard reviews about how horrible the english was and it ruined the movie and blah blah blah. but considering they were teaching people from 3-4 different language a form of english they could all sound united in... it was pretty amazing.\n\ni was impressed. but i just like that genre of film.


My 20 month old has had one brown spot on the side of his face for several months now. I figured it was just going to become a mole someday. The other day I noticed that he had 4 of these spots on his torso. This morning I noticed 7 on his torso. Does anyone know what causes these? Is he just going to have a lot of moles or could it be something else?

You should ask his doctor .... it could be different skin pigmentation . I had a friend in high school that had these spots, on her arms & hands, back and legs.

I submitted my application 2 yrs ago. 6 mos ago I passed my interview but had to submit additional paperwork & get refingerprinted for the 3rd time.

yes you should contact your Local INS office!!


Do we guess that you're the father then?  Good luck, and good for you for doing it on your own!\n\nI'm sure you get the basics, but perhaps you should get a book for you to read, so that when she has questions, you can be prepared to answer them - my guess is that you weren't given the whole story on what happens to girls.\n\nThere are also a lot of books out there that could be good for her to read, at least to get the conversation started, and give her a basis of knowledge to build on.  \n\nYou don't mention how old she is, but I would recommend that she get the basic lesson by about age 10.  I know it seems young, but it's not necessarily uncommon for girls to start menstruating by 10 or 11.\n\nMy biggest recommendation is to always be honest, and always be willing to talk with her about the difficult stuff.  When my daughter was young, I actually took her with my to my annual exam...She knew that it made me a bit uncomfortable, and she really appreciated that I would do this for her even though it was a little weird.  That went a long way into our future, in allowing her to feel safe asking questions even if the subject matter was no fun.\n\nI might also recommend finding a trustworthy female adult for her to connect with.  Sometimes this is Grandma, or an aunt, or even a neighbor you're close with.  Alternately, Big Brothers Big Sisters is a great organization that connects kids with caring adults...As an addition to your excellent parenting, another grown-up to talk to can sometimes be a good thing.


for school i have to find the definition of the law of supply and demand but i couldnt find it please help.

If there is demand, there will be supply. They work side by side. One cannot exist without the other. As one increases or decreases, so will the other. Not always at the same rate of increase or decrease. This rule determines cost of production & selling price. On a simple grid, using a X & Y axis; where they cross is the selling price.


I do! Of course Satan has been circulating since his fall, time is getting worse and the days are getting shorter. I just want to know who sees the truth?

I believe that we are living in the end times.  Jesus will be returning soon, I can feel it deep in my soul.  Many Bible prophecies about the end times already have happened, and more are still coming true today.  Such as "there will be wars, and rumors of wars".  Well, we're in the middle of a war with Iraq right now, and there are rumors of other wars in other countries.  It's happening, and it's happening very fast.  Therefore, yes, I believe that the Antichrist is alive somewhere today.  It would be a scary thought for me, but since I've already accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior, I know that I won't be here when the real suffering begins.  Once Jesus comes back and all the believers are taken to heaven, everything on earth is going to start getting much, much worse.  I thank God that I won't be here to see it, and pray that the ones I know and love won't be here to see it either.


I have Mic and a pair of speaker I want to talk to my online friends

Download Skype, open an account, and then have your buddy do the same thing. Or you can call regular telephone numbers if you pay for them via Skype. You can also video/audio chat via most old chat programs now - like MSN/Yahoo!/AIM - just right-click on your buddy's name in there. Also google Trillian - it's a better program for regular chat.

I'm sort of a nerd, and I spend more than half of my day just trying to figure out how to fit in with the cool kids since the nerds are really annoying. When the kid in my class over the summer got contacts and lengthened his hair, he was suddenly popluar.\nPlease don't post something like,"Just be yourself"

You know, as someone who hated high school (in the 80's), I can tell you - what those people think about you won't make one bit of difference after you all part ways. Don't bend over backwards trying to "be cool" and stop worrying about the popular kids. They're all just as insecure as anyone else. \n\nDo be yourself. Working out is good - if it's for good reasons, like wanting to be healthy. Don't force yourself to give up things you love to join a sport or other activity that you'll hate. For Pete's sake, this is your youth. Live it in a way that will make you happy - not other people.\n\n(P.S. I hung out with the "geeks" and the "cool kids." Guess who I liked better?)

We have low taxes and  a healthy economy BUT we also have free healthcare, and a safety net to ensure those that can't work still gets a decent standard of living.\nBest of boths worlds :-)

You could say that the British *way* of government is the best but not necessarily that the British government itself is the best.\n\nOur parliamentary system is known as the mother of all parliaments and has been a model used for centuries throughout pretty much all the demcracies in the world.  Each country has of course, it's own rules and regulations and it's own way of doing things but the system is based on the British system.\n\nI wouldn't necessarily agree with your comments.  You say that we have low taxes, in fact, we have higher than average taxes paying 41p in every £1 earned as tax.  This compares quite well to the EU as a whole (48p) but quite poor in comparison to other countries (29p in the US for example).\n\nOur economy isn't particularly healthy and today's announcement of thousands of job losses at Peugeot is a good example.  If it weren't for the trillions of dollars worth of north sea gas and oil that's been keeping the economy afloat for 32 years then we, as a nation, would have been bankrupt a long time ago.  We used to be world leaders in textiles, ship-building, steel, electronics, engineering, railways but all these industries have long since declined.\n\nWe do have free healthcare but the NHS, which was once the envy of the world, is in crisis.  Huge sums of money have been pumped into it yet we can only staff it by draining the resources of other countries by paying their doctors and nurses to come over here.\n\nThe safety net you mention costs over £100 billion a year, that's the equivalent of £5,000 for every single household in the country.  Considering that the average household gets nowhere near this amount it demonstartes just how much is wasted on bureaucracy.  To give you one example from when my Dad worked for the government... It was decided to look into the possibility of moving one of the government departments to new offices, it cost us (the taxpayer) £94 million for them to decide to stay where they were.


I am laying bets if he is indicted, he will squeal on the Chimp.

I wish I could say yes but I honestly don't believe so. I realize it sounds deeply cynical to say this but some people truly are above the law. Like "all the president's men," this hateful, evil, utterly despicable fat piggy-man has been getting away with murder for so long now I've lost count. And why is it the really right-wing neo-con republicans always seem to have such porcine features? I am reminded of Orwell's brilliant 'Animal Farm' every time I look at these vile scum... which I try to avoid doing without a silver crucifix extended.\n\nSorry, I digress. No, I don't believe this evil swine (get it? swine? fat piggy-man?) is going to be indicted. I sense another impotent plea bargain, perhaps something comparable to rash lameblow's recent dirty deal with the state of Florida over his illegal prescription drug addiction. I repeat, these hateful people appear to be above the law and are thus not subject to the same rules and regulations as the rest of us. Honestly, I no longer recognize my own country....


Can anyone pls tell me how to multiply two sparse matrices using doubly linked lists?

I assume that since you're asking about linked lists, you can probably read code to some extent. =)\n\nAnyways, here's a link to a project on CodeProject that does exactly what you're asking for; along with source code so that you can see how it's done.


i know hoo ah is army and hoo ra is marine but what do they really mean?

They are like all-encompassing ways of us just uttering who we are and our ideals in a single word. It's from the gut and there's no real way I could ever describe it perfectly, you'd just have to suffer throughboot like the rest of us to really grasp it.


Also if it is illegal, who can i contact to turn them in.  Also does anyone know of OSHA laws regarding radiation.  They get mad when employees insist on wearing lead lined gloves and they only have 2 pairs of lead lined gloves yet there are often 3 people exposed to radiation at one time.  Is the employer required to ensure that employees wear appropriate protective equipment.

Absolutely not. I strongly encourage you to get a hold of OSHA as soon as possible. Don't forget where those drugs are ending up by dumping them down the drain. The employer is 100% responsible for the safety of his staff and the animals that are in his care. If anyone gets sick because of the exposure to radiation, he is criminally responsible, infact, he is criminally responsible for the dumping of drugs down the drain. This veterinary clinic needs to be reported for illegal practices as soon as possible. Don't let your health be compromised by a vet who seems to be too cheap to properly equip his employees with the proper gear needed. Remember, this is your life, don't let someone else decide if you will get sick or not.
