I'm 17 and will be 18 in february 2007.  Me and my mom just can't and don't get along.  My parents are divorced so if I leave her house I can live with my dad.  so I wondering if a judge would allow for me to go live with my dad cuz my mom won't just consent to it she would want to go 2 court.  But i just cant live with her anymore because she never listens to me and is too controlling and strict.  Would they consider letting me in with my dad and if so what do i need to say so that they will allow it?

First off I know you love your Mom. Sorry to say your stuck with your Mom. Find out the judges name and write the same letter to the judge as you did here before you go to court. The Judge is bound by law to read it and consider it. It's worth a shot. Clean up the slang and mail it to the judge before your court date. BTW, My MOM was a waitress all her life she worked very, very hard for low pay to support me and my 2 brothers. She put food on the table and gave us all love and yes rules. My dad was a drunk and would not work. He would often hit my Mom. I loved my Mom soooo very much and when she died a year ago, I was Heart broken. She always gave me all she had and more, even her last dime. Now that my Mom is gone, I would give all that I own and every freedom I have to spend more time with her. BTW, the grass always seems greener somewhere else but it seldom is really. Being only 17 you will learn later that the sting of death hurts far more than the sting of life.\nI lost two brothers and two fathers before my Mom, I know.


thiery henry has realy proved in recent time that he is all out for any task in soccer.his tremendious form in the english premier league and the european champions league is just too great

Henry will not lead the french national team as a captain but will be part of the team to the world cup if he does not sustain injury before then.\nHenry is a great player but Zidane is the captain of the team and will lead the team to the mundial.

i m painter, but we are allowed to build something for ourself, so i was buildin something using a table saw  , i finished  my work ,so i said to build something on campany time,everybody does it  so i cut my fingers , happend i cant explain and i have some experience in table saw , and today i got a paper in mail i fired , they said , i use the company time to build something and i was not allowed to use table saw,everybody does it, and other complain, what i can i do??????

They have to prove you weren't allowed to use the saw, plus if you weren't it was their obligation to keep it locked up. Contact the office and get worker's compensation papers. This will pay for your medical. Do this!! THEY CANNOT FIRE YOU!!!!!


Assimilation is a cultural thing. Culture is define by the behavior, traditions, customs, religion, and language of a civilization. The Mexican culture has no similarities to the European. This is why it is a difficult process and takes several generations to partially assimilate to the American Culture. The American culture is a combination of many cultures and differs from region to region. The technology you mention has nothing to do with a human condition. And if talking about globalization, these social problems were foreseen and it is all up to us to solve them with tolerance and be more objective instead of personal. Globalization means the globe will close in and we need to share what resources we have, protect what we have left of them and be reasonable or  we can help destroy it, it's our choice.

HER HUSBAND HAS BEEN UNEMPLOYED FOR A YEAR AND A HALF; SHE HAS BEEN WORKING FULL TIME OUTSIDE THE HOME PLUS DOING EVERYHTING AROUND THE HOUSE (LAUNDRY, CLEANING, COOKING, ETC); THEY HAVE TWO CHILDREN 4 AND 5 YEARS OLD WHO HE YELLS AND SCREAMS AT ALL THE TIME; MY FRIEND NOW NEEDS SURGERY ON HER KNEE TO REPLACE SOME CARTILEDGE BUT HE REFUSES TO GET EVEN A PART TIME JOB SO SHE CAN TAKE THE TIME OFF OF WORK; HE IS CURRENTLY TAKING A COURSE THROUGH OUR UNEMPLOYMENT SYSTEM AND UPON ITS COMPLETION HE PLANS TO GO TO CALGARY FROM WINDSOR TO WORK, LEAVING HER AND THE GIRLS HERE!!; SHE IS ALWAYS UNHAPPY, COMPLAINING, CRYING, STRESSED, DEPRESSED ETC.  HELP PLEASE

Truthfully, you can tell her everything and she may not change a thing.  Let her know that you care for her and you want the absolute best for her.  Seeing her unhappy is breaking your heart.  Let her know how you feel without making judgements on her decision.  Ask her if there is absolutely anything that you can do for her to help her and her family out.  Things won't change unless she wants them to change.  All you can do is support her and be there for her.  She needs the strength to see if being a single mom is the best for her children and if she can do it alone.  Its easy for outsiders to express how they feel about the situation but its different when you live it everyday.  Help her be strong.  I hope all goes well.


I want to be a doctor and I guess I can be but I still dont know if I wanna be a doc because I had it in my mind when I was a kid. Well I am pretty much confused and here is the other problem. Becoming a doc is not a very easy task and so I will have to spend 10-13 years and thats a long time. I dont wanna spend that much time because I really wanna spend lots of money on my Mom( honestly). I mean she has been sooooooo nice, dear and caring single Mom and so I really wanna do something for her. I know I cant return her precious years but I still wanna make her happy. She isnt that greedy Mom types ( well ofcourse no mom in the world is greedy and want good for their kid) but now my mom is jobless ( I mean not that bad but we have moved to a new place and she will be doing a small jobs for a while as she has to prepare for an exam to get a the same job she had previously, she was a pharmacy lecturer). I dont want her to get upset and study at this age. Can I try for engineering?

Depends on your academic record and abilities. Do you have the tenacity, confidence and brains for the studying and the career? To do well in Medicine, you really have to be passionately devoted to the field and vocation itself. You can't only be doing it for the money or some other secondary factor, because these won't help you when you're feeling the intense pressure and emotional strain. You have to be motivated by those you'll be able to help, by your future impact on society. There's much more to consider than just "I want to spend money on my mother". \n\nIt costs a lot to study Med. Think about how you'll get the financial support for tertiary education, which courses will be manageable both mentally and monetarily. Talk to careers advisers at your school, teachers who know your strengths and your personality. This is one of the most important decisions you'll make in your life, so enlist all the help you can from people who know you. Talk to universities, check out their course prerequisites and guidelines. Ask yourself whether you can meet all the requirements, whether you're willing to make the sacrifices necessary, and whether you'll truly be gratified by the life you'll commit yourself to. \n\nGood luck!

because i get the stress all the time and some nerves when someone is yelling at me


My husband & I have been separated for months.  I still love him & want to work things out, although we have both moved on...he has his own place in another town miles from us & I have my own home now.  I have told him about my feelings, but he ignores them & tries to run away from them.  I am the one who filed for divorce because he had changed in so many ways & was on something that had changed him very much.  He was totally upsetting our daughters & myself all the time.  I couldn't take it anymore.  Now I want him back, but the way he used to be.  Is it hopeless?  What do I do?  Our divorce is not over yet, but could be this month.  I forgot to mention we have been married 22 years..almost 23.

If he isn't willing to work on it than I don't see a chance of it working, but I could be wrong. I would think the big question for you is how long are you willing to hang on to him Lady


When you write the paper, can you use the information that the website put up, but not exactly do it word for word, and wrote the sentences with the same information as the website?

Plagiarism most commonly refers to the passing off of another person's work as one's own, whether deliberate or accidental. Accidental plagiarism is usually the result of poor citation or referencing, or of poor preparation or a misunderstanding of what constitutes plagiarism. Deliberate plagiarism is a purposeful attempt to claim another person's work as one's own.\n\nAny unacknowledged use of words, ideas, information, research, or findings not one's own, taken from any source including a published or unpublished book, the Internet, a lecture or conversation, a film, television or radio show, even if paraphrased, constitutes plagiarism.\n\nAccording to Diana Hacker, the following are the citation criteria as specified by the MLA (Modern Language Association) (115), the APA (American Psychological Association) (157-158), Chicago-Style (186), and others (228-230). "Three different acts are considered plagiarism: (1) failing to cite quotations and borrowed ideas, (2) failing to enclose borrowed language in quotation marks, and (3) failing to put summaries and paraphrases in your own words."

I have a friend who has medical degree from another country and wants to know where to look to apply to take her medical licence. LPN,RN, PA

She will need to take both phases of the USMLE. Try http://www.amcas.org or http://www.aamc.org for more info on that exam. It's computer based and comprehensive.  After she scores well on the USMLE, she may need to do another residency.\n\nOtherwise, she may sign up for the NCLEX, the nursing exam (also computer-based). And if she can handle some more schooling, she can get her NP (nurse practitioner) certification.

I know how to do the Eastern but I wonder if someone could help me out.

Hold the racket in your left hand, the frame should be standing up and the strings should face the net on one side and the back fence on the other side.  Now take your right hand and lay it perfectly flat.  Then place the racket handle into your right hand.  Your right hand should be grabbing the racket from "almost underneath" the handle.  You now have a fully western forehand grip.


Yes.  There needs to be a point in the day where everyone just shuts up.

what are 5 reasons for raising the minimum wage to help the poor? \n\nwhat are 5 reasons for not raising the minimum wage to help the poor?

At one time I managed a restaurant that was part of a nation wide chain of restaurants and I had the Regional Director explain the process to me. When Congress passes a law raising the minimum wage, companies raise their prices to cover the increase in paying the employees. They usually raise them well before the date so that when the increase in the minimum wage takes place the company will have a reserve of cash. Now if the minimum wage increase is small enough some companies will not change their prices as it isn't' cost effective to change every store, computer programs, and paperwork.


growing up your dad never took care of you,then finally when you're older like around 13,14,you went to live with him,one time he called you in the room and tried to show you a porn movie..i ran out asking him why would he show me that..he would ask you to sleep in his bed..saying to keep his company..he would ask you to give him a back massage also..you didn't think anything of this at the time..and there were times when he would ask for a hug and when you would try to kiss him on the cheek he would put his face to try and kiss you on your mouth..he would walk around in his underpants alone in the house......and you and him would go drinking.alone...and in the car he would always want to hold your hand while  driving.. you are saying why and no, he's like i'm your father and one time you got really drunk you feel asleep in the car all the way home,he always seems to want to do things with me now looking back was he trying to seduce me.i hate him help me understand what to to think/do.

Yes, it is child abuse. I'm sorry that you had to go through with this. It is important that you realize that this is the problem of the adult, and that it doesn't mean you did anything wrong. Adults are supposed to protect kids from this, and your father obviously didn't.\n\nThat said, you would benefit from a chance to talk with someone about this as it still seems to bother you. There are a number of options. You can call a local crisis center, a local rape crisis center, or your local mental health center. Some ministers are good people to talk with as well. \n\nRead this website:\nhttp://sophia.smith.edu/safe/Survivorhelp.htm\n\nHere are some adult survivor support groups:\nhttp://www.darkness2light.org/GetHelp/support_adult_survivor.asp\n\nThe point now is to talk about it, put it in perspective, understand that it changed you life forever but that you can move on when you are ready. You don't have to continue to dwell on this.\n\nBest wishes. There are lots of folks out there to help you out.

has anyone found it hard to take time out to study the bible on a daily basis? it should be as easy as sitting down to watch TV but the motivation isn't there most of the time....I feel guilty about that a lot ...any one has any realistic suggestions?

No comparison between tv and bible study.  You don't have to think to watch tv.  Go to your quiet space, and turn off everything, then open your mind.  Say your own prayer for wisdom and understanding, and then open your book.\n\nWhat is your motivation for reading your bible?  Knowledge, understanding, you have to decide that on your own.  Then set a goal achieve.  Then write that goal, and put a time to achieve that goal on a piece of paper.  Put that paper on your mirror so that you can see it every day.  You have to work on it.  Nothing comes easy.


Wherever I go, be it Europe, South America, even India, it is infested with Americans. And they speak none other than English, and expect others to speak it. And they feel they rule the world. I'm not angry, I'm just curious.

I haven't been to many countries outside of the US but I think the situation goes both ways.  I live in Southern California and there are many Spanish speaking people who get angry at me for not understanding Spanish.  Many Asian people have also gotten mad because they assume I'm Vietnamese, Japanese, etc and are disappointed that I can't communicate with them.  I live in an area where tourism is very popular and I've seen many non-English speaking people flare up when they can't their idea across.  Language barriers can be very frustrating.  I wouldn't see it as arrogance but then again I don't travel much.    \n\n  A friend of mine commented, "Why move to another country and be so lazy you don't even learn the main language?"  I wouldn't call them lazy because I know how hard it is to learn a new language.  I do however, wish that people at least take the time to ask "Do you speak [insert language here]?" before they start firing off lectures and interrogations in their language.  I made sure to learn how to ask that in Tagalog before I went traveling to the Philippines.

The people who needs conunseling or psychotherapy.

Seems to me psychotherapy is going out of fashion as the drug companies become ever more powerful and steer western medicine on the path of pharmaceuticals rather than the much more healing approach of figuring out the basis for unwanted behaviors and then working toward changing them. Perhaps you could explore this theme. I mean, really....all these kids on psyche drugs? That can't be good....


ie.\n\nThe literature "Sahih Al-Bukhari" comes in nine volumes and contains thousands of Hadiths describing Mohammed's life. It talks about "Aisha" the girl in Volumes 5 and 7. Since taking a child bride was so unusual, it seems Mohammed claimed Allah had spoken to him in order to overcome the strong protests of the child's father. Thus, the marriage ceremony occurred when the girl was 6 and finalized through intercourse when she was nine.

Oh Yeah...............In the bullseye.......The truth hurts and yet so easily justified by them........


well we got 9 months when he left me ...i was so happy with him...but he gave me a brak because some stupid guy told him that we was messing around..and thats not true,,right now i dont know what im going to tell my boo................................HELP ME PLEASE I LOVE HIM AND I WANT TO GET BACK WITH HIM

lol, chill out, you'll find better love, i just went through something kinda like that, and it hurt at first, but you will gain confidence by saying no.


I am very amazed with how you complete a full length movie using stop-motion animation. I took that as an elective when I was in college and man all you need is patience and accuracy. I'm actually a fan of A Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride. How about you??

I love Wallace and Grommit. Though I never got to see the movie. I loved the shows though.


I'm from the US, taking a trip to England next year and want to see a good mix of EPL and lower league games.  Probably be spending most time in/around London, but prob going up north as well.  What teams would you recommend for best atmosphere/experience?

I suppose that leaves you with most of the London clubs. For big teams there would be Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham. These would be the clubs with more illustrious histories. Lower league clubs include Millwall, Queens Park Rangers and Leyton Orient. Anyway, I included a whole list of London clubs from the top 4 divisions for you below. =)\n\nArsenal \nLeyton Orient \nBarnet \nMillwall \nBrentford \nQueens Park Rangers \nCharlton Athletic \nTottenham Hotspur \nChelsea \nWatford \nCrystal Palace \nWest Ham United \nFulham \nWimbledon


My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14You are my friends if you do what I command.  John 15:12-14\n\nThe angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid. I know you are looking for Jesus Who was nailed to the cross. 6He is not here! He has risen from the dead as He said He would. Come and see the place where the Lord lay. 7Run fast and tell His followers that He is risen from the dead. He is going before you to the country of Galilee. You will see Him there as I have told you."  Matthew 28\n\nThat if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  Romans 10:9

The last time I cried - about a half an hour ago while I was watching A Baby Story.  Before that, about 2 hours ago, just from looking at my beautiful baby girl.\n\nYes, I have cried over Jesus' death on the cross.  It was such a powerful moment that can bring you to your knees.


I am going to be playing JV football in the fall and i wouldnt consider myself a little guy but I could definitely buff up a little bit and I know I wont be able to do it on my own, what products or dietary supplements would you reccomend for me to help me lift longer that aren't steroids or banned by high schools.

I'll give you three supplements that have the greatest potential to benefit you. First, creatine is essential. It has been shown in study after study to augment muscle size and muscle strength gains when taken as part of a resistance training program. You don't need large doses; 3-5 grams per day should suffice after a short 4-day loading phase of 15-20 grams per day. That should be affordable if you have a bigger budget go with Cell Mass or Cell Tech. Second, find yourself a high-quality protein shake that tastes good to take before and after your workouts. Whey protein works great because it has an ideal amino acid profile and is quickly absorbed. I personally like NytroWhey Extreme but there are several good whey proteins that fit the bill. Finally, I can't speak enough about the overall health benefits of fish oil, also known as omega 3 fats. These will not only improve your health but also enhance your insulin sensitivity and help burn fat. \nAlso take a multivitamin like animal pak.


What do u think, Which lottory game is the best in US?\n(amount of money & chances of win)

Instead of doing this research - spend an equal amount of time and a couple dollars (far less than you will ever waste on the lottery) and buy a basic statistics book.  By chapter 2 you'll understand why government lotteries are known as an ignorance tax.  \n\nYou quickly understand that if tickets were sold for even a $0.01, you're still getting a royal screwing every time you buy one.   \n\nDon't focus on the one guy who won.  Focus on the tens of millions that lost and you'll see how ridiculous it is to play.  \n\n2 last points \n1) A perfect example is Vegas.  The overall house margins are just a few percentage points and look at the cost of the casinos they build with the house winnings - The properties alone cost Billions of dollars.  Compare a few percentage points in Vegas with that of your typical government lottery (the odds of winning are less than 1 in 14 million in Florida\n\n2)Ever wonder why you only see the poor or the working poor playing the lottery and never see the guy driving the Porche in the business suit buying a handful of tickets.  The "educated" guy in the business suit understands the lottery is for SUCKERS who don't know any better.


should i wait to see if she truely loves me or or should i say the hell with it and just go?  she has had a chance before to stop me. but she didn't then. so should i wait this time or not?

She's not going to stop you or give you another chance until she knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that you're not going to hurt her again.\n\nEverything was going good until you decided you would rather stay home home than go to work and help support her and the household you so badly wish to be a part of.\n\nYour lies was the reason she froze up again and won't ask you to stay.\n\nI can't believe you tried to get away with it again. You know she's going to catch you and you know it's going to hurt her when she does, and that she's going to retaliate. She always does. She can SMELL the lies from a mile away. \n\nYou always say the same things after she has caught you in a lie. What makes you think she's going to listen this time?\n\nIf you decide to go, then go. If it's meant to be you will be back. If you decide to stay (which you claim to have done), then work on fixing yourself. Maybe if she sees over time that you have truly changed (and she will know if it's genuine), then you can give it another try later.\n\nThere's no doubt in my mind that she does love you. She's just tired of being hurt on a regular basis by the same B.S. The walls of ice grow thicker around her heart every time you hurt her, it will take time to melt them.


FIFA recently took into consideration to cancel the national anthems in at soccer matches.  What do you think about that?

It would be a shame to lose the National Anthems - they're a whole part of the tradition of international football matches. Furthermore they're one of the few opportunities people in some countries get to sing their National Anthems.

see here is the thing, i met my boyfriend online about a month ago, and for the past 6 days he hasnt responded. what does it mean, what should i do(i dont have his phone number, i know stupid move, right) should i ask him whats up or play it cool and give him a chance to explain himself. i mean a whole week, what kind of guy would do that? what is he doing? could he be cheating on me? please anything.

If he really likes you, he will contact you, no doubt about it. You do nothing, he comes first. But don't cross out other possibilities. Maybe, he is just fooling around. Sometimes a guy may think: "She is too good for me, too clean, too innocent. I'd better pursue some wicked chick." Another thought: "Why the hell should I write her every day? I am not committed to her, I don't even like her!" Until you meet him in flesh he is mostly your fantasy, a kind of role playing toy. The real he might be different. Are you ready to break your toy? You know better. But play safe, please. His silence is not the end of the world.

It is a block your institution puts on your card for any of several different reasons.  Either they think it is stolen, your account is negative, or they closed it for some reason.  Best to give them a call on Monday.


i love soccer and basketball! they r my favorite! but im a very athletic girl and in relly good shape so i could probably play any sport!

Basketball since there are soo many cool aspects of it. Dunking, Shooting, dribbling and it can get complicated...


for all the people who speak other languaje besides english as a native languaje, is easier to learn english than any other languaje in the world?

ok, no, the easiest language in the world (proven) was french (2001, dont know bout now, but the langs are still the same so i guess that still is relevant)\n\nbut it's better to learn latin because u can easily understand spanish, french, italian, english, greek, some arabic/german/persian/russian (i use the term some, loosely) it makes it easier to learn other languages. latin is the core language


f(z) = exp(z)/sin^2(z)\nThis function clearly has a pole of order 2 at zero. How do you find the residue at 0 (coefficient of 1/z in the series expansion)??

Divide the power series. You can use the fact that sin^2z=(1/2)(1-cos(2z)) to get the series expansion easier.\n\nModified:\nDo long division. The initial z^2 divides into 1 to give an initial 1/z^2. After subtracting, the linear term of exp(z) will give a (4/3)z. Then the z^2 goes into that (4/3)z^(-1) times. So your residue is 4/3.\n\nBTW, use z not x for that denominator.


guys are obcessed with my boobs and i dont even know why!!!!

The boob fascination is because it is always hidden (behind layers). If a guy walks shirtless it is a dont care situation (unless hes a hunk), the same dosent apply to a girl. Guess that explains why guyz are always fascinated by boobs.

my above hardware gets hang at server end i cannot receive any calls on the same for that i want to change registration interval in this hardware but i didn't find any option like that in its menu. please help me sorting out problem if i can do this by upgrading firmware or like that.

There is no way for a user to change the registration interval. You need to speak to you VOIP provider, and have them fix the problem with the server.\n\nIf it doesn't work out, just cancel your service and try a different one. I use Lingo, and it's great.

I'm 19 years old and all I've ever done is kissing and I want to go further with my boyfriend. How can I turn him on? Is there anything that guys like females to do to them...help me plz...

Yes, there are many tricks that a girl can do to turn a guy on. Because you are discovering your own sexuality at the same time that your desires are fueled by temptations, I recommend a slower approach. As you get older, there will be many times that you will look back at your first experiences with a guy. It is important that you have no regrets because you will carry that particular sexual encounter with you forever. Please think about what I am saying, I speak from the heart.\nAs far as something that you can do to turn on your boyfriend, I have a few ideas that are sure to get your man excited. First, when the two of you are together and with friends, "feed his ego", point out something great about him and then finish off with "That's Hot" and then make sure your looking at him when you say it. Another idea is to make him feel more comfortable being alone with. For example, "get caught checking him out" say things like,"you are so sexy" or "you have a nice azz" stay away from words that involve love, relationship, or commitment, that really freaks a guy out when he has sxx on the brain. After you have had your fill of him, then you can use that type of dialog so that you can keep him. Put yourself in the situation that you picture in your head. Do not settle for less because if you do this the right way, you will have the best time ever. Make sure you think about the time you have together and do not get "into it" when you have to leave each other right after. In other words, have a plan, stick to it, and make sure that you have some great bonding time after. That's part of the good time as well and can also be just as hot! Remember when you are with your boyfriend, smile, be happy, be excited, get a little crazy and most important, be safe and don't open any doors that you can't close yourself! Good Luck!


I don't believe in the Easter Bunny. That's because I used to BE the Easter Bunny. In my youth, I took a seasonal job playing the Easter Bunny at a store. I had to wear a giant, furry rabbit suit that smelled like the worst body odor on Earth. Some of the little kids liked the big Easter Bunny, but other children were frightened, to the point that they would occasionally wet themselves. A kid piddled on my lap. It was unbelievably hot in the bunny suit, and I was sweating like a monster. Dye from some of the bunny fur seeped into my skin, temporarily discoloring it. It's one of those jobs that's interesting to add to a resume, but I don't think I'd ever do it again.

most of it was from charges that i dont even know where they came from. i couldnt pay it so now its a debt collection agency. Is there any way i can fight this, or is it too late??

I work for a collection agency.  If they call you, tell them you want to pispute the charges.  They will give you an address.  You have 14days from the day they tell you this to write the letter and for them to recieve it.  They will evaluate the vilidity of your claim.  However, if you claim fraud and you are lying and all the calls made were made by you, you will go to prison for fraud.\nThey can give you a settlement...anywhere from 80% of the original bill to 50% of the original bill, depending on what company you are with.  And they might take payments.  Most do.\nGood luck to you.\nRemember, this will affect your credit and collectors report every 30days to the creit bureaus.

27 years old... intermediate level weight=training

You shouldn't.. a spasm is a protective reflex which your body does to prevent furthur damage of your muscle tissues. When you have overworked or strained a muscle, the tissues get damaged thereby stimulating pain receptors, this is why that particular muscle hurts. this pain stimulation is to keep you from further use of the muscle and in turn furthur damage to the tissues, therefore you end up giving it time to heal.

I'm doing this for a school project. I'm trying to make the school dress code policty more lenient. I am theorizing that allowing hats and gloves will reduce absences from colds and other weather-induced sicknesses. Please tell me if you know any schools havechanged their dress code policty to allow hats and gloves so that i cna call them and ask if their attendance rates have gone up. This would give my cause a lot of support. Thanks for your time and help.

i've been at schools that have banned hats (usually for some vague reason like 'to reduce gang activity' or something equally lame and unproveable), but i've never heard of a school that banned gloves.\n\nwhat spurious reason did they give for this policy?\n\ni've never understood the reason or value for any form of dress codes in schools.  and i've been a teacher.  i used to tell my students that i didn't care if they showed up in coconut bras and grass skirts, as long as they showed up.  i have never noticed ANY kind of corellation between what a student was wearing and that student's learning ability.


is it possible for human beings to be immune to the flu?

Not really.  When we say "flu" we actually mean a few hundred closely related viruses.  You can be immune to any one of them, and in theory you could be immune to all of them, but in reality having the flu or getting a flu shot leaves you immune to one, so that's a lot of flu shots.  The reason that people get flu shots every year isn't that the immunity from last year's shot wears off, but rather that it's for whatever strain of flu virus is most common that year, and it changes every year.

When bees communicate to each other, they communicate the position of nearby flowers.  The directions are relative to the sun's position in the sky.

They claim to help black people.  So why are they still in the dumps. More like exploiting them I would say.  Bill Crosby is correct when he said in order to help the black people from their misery, they have to take responsibility first themselves and not rely on the Government to do it for them.  Poor immigrants from other countries come to america with a dream, and they work hard towards it and succeed.  Why can't these little hip hop husksters do it?  Because it aint cool to go to school and be educated, instead these nigas stay in the hip hop culture to attract women for sex, that is why they do it, personal choice.

NOT TRUE! It's people like you who make it that way.


I graduated with my Associate's degree in January 2005, which is last year. I tried applying for positions that year and I got nothing. I started to give up applying for positions realizing that companies probably wouldn't hire me due to the fact that it had been a year, and I am still seeking employment right now. I applied to several companies this year and I found one that I am really interested in, that I would love to work for, and that it has the requirements and qualifications that I have. I have a feeling that I would get this position, and I pray that I get it, but the same time what if they don't hire me because of that one year gap? Do you think that I would get the position?

I don't think your year long gap matters if you are qualified for the job. You might want to ask a career counselor at the institution where you received your Assoc. degree check your resume and help you with the cover letter for your application. You want to make sure your application reflects your abilities, and uses the right "buzz words". The most important thing is to get to that interview. Once you are called in, be as professional and polite as you can, while showing that you would be a great person to work with.\n\nWhen you find that one job that you really want, it is going to reflect on your performance in a good way. Go for it, don't hold back, and really show that you want the job.


I dont know the exact spelling. What does it feel like?

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, stereotyped, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. \n\nThe early symptoms of TS are almost always noticed first in childhood, with the average onset between the ages of 7 and 10 years. TS occurs in people from all ethnic groups; males are affected about three to four times more often than females. Although TS can be a chronic condition with symptoms lasting a lifetime, most people with the condition experience their worst symptoms in their early teens, with improvement occurring in the late teens and continuing into adulthood.\n\nTics are classified as either simple or complex. Simple motor tics are sudden, brief, repetitive movements that involve a limited number of muscle groups. Some of the more common simple tics include eye blinking and other vision irregularities, facial grimacing, shoulder shrugging, and head or shoulder jerking.  Simple vocalizations might include repetitive throat-clearing, sniffing, or grunting sounds. Complex tics are distinct, coordinated patterns of movements involving several muscle groups. Complex motor tics might include facial grimacing combined with a head twist and a shoulder shrug. Other complex motor tics may actually appear purposeful, including sniffing or touching objects, hopping, jumping, bending, or twisting. Simple vocal tics may include throat-clearing, sniffing/snorting, grunting, or barking. More complex vocal tics include words or phrases.  Perhaps the most dramatic and disabling tics include motor movements that result in self-harm such as punching oneself in the face or vocal tics including coprolalia (uttering swear words) or echolalia (repeating the words or phrases of others). Some tics are preceded by an urge or sensation in the affected muscle group, commonly called a premonitory urge. Some with TS will describe a need to complete a tic in a certain way or a certain number of times in order to relieve the urge or decrease the sensation.\n\nTics are often worse with excitement or anxiety and better during calm, focused activities. Certain physical experiences can trigger or worsen tics, for example tight collars may trigger neck tics, or hearing another person sniff or throat-clear may trigger similar sounds. Tics do not go away during sleep but are often significantly diminished.


Why is it that Americans are supposed to be the bad guys for wanting their immigration laws enforced when EVERY OTHER country has their own immigration laws which they enforce?

It has become a popular practice, especially in the U.S., for minorities to play the 'race card' whenever a bill or law is addressed which affects minorities in a negative manner.\n\nNo matter how much these acts will benefit society 'as a whole', the ill-affected minorities will always label the intent as 'racist'.  And they will do this whether they actually see it that way, or not.\n\nThe reason?  Quite simply, it's not the 'best' card for them to play but, thanks to several years of our society-degrading approach to 'political correctness', it is the 'easiest' card for them to play.\n\np.s.  Chinese,... Russian?  They are not involved because, simply put, those countries do not share a common border with the U.S.  Again we see the 'race card' played, when the core problem is lack of a secure border.  The problems 'illegal' immigrants face when we seek to secure our borders is incidental to the solution.  Calling a people 'racist' because they seek to control their country's borders is utter lunacy.

I have OK credit, mostly just credit card debt.  I own my car outright, and I am currently renting.  I am starting a new job in a couple of weeks, and I will be making total around $50,000 anually.  My current lease is up at the end of November.  Should I try to purchase a house, sign another lease, or look for a Rent to Buy type of situation.  Also, is a realtor really the best way to go? Who is the best place to get a loan from for a first time buyer.\n\nThanks! This stuff is so out of my realm of knowledge.

WOW you packed a lot into this question!\n\n1. Real Estate investment in a primary residence is typically a good idea.\n2. You say you have okay credit.  Does that mean you owe a lot or you have some derogatory credit on your profile?  This would affect your ability to qualify for a loan from both a debt ratio situation or challenged credit issue.\n3. A rent to own, lease option, or contract of sale it typically a good way to go if your credit is questionable as you may not be able to obtain traditional financing.  You would need to find a seller willing to cooperate with this type of financing.\n4. If you buy outright a Realtor is always recommended.  There is no cost to the buyer.  The seller bears the burden of all costs incurred.\n5. If you use a Realtor they can assist you in finding a source for financing.  Generally that would be a loan officer the Realtor has an existing relationship with that can cater to your individual needs.\n6. Lastly you say you are starting a new job.  Typically a lender is looking for 2 years in the same line of work with your new earnings similar to your past earnings.  If your new job is a significant increase in pay, the lender will evaluate your ability to secure employment for the same earnings should you lose your new position\n\nI know how overwhelming all this can seem to someone who is unaware of how the process works.  Don't be discouraged.  You may contact me if you need further help and if I know the answers I'd be happy to share my knowledge.  \n\nGood Luck!

Can you define what constitutes moral behaviour\nand/or ethical behavior?  Do you have a moral and ethical code that you live by?  If not... why not?

For me, and this is just my perception, morals have a basis in religion. The Jewish 10 commandments, for example, constitute a moral code. Ethics on the other hand are derived from sources out side religion. You might derive a moral code from philosophy, science, or any number of other things. I, personally, do not consider myself to be "moral" because I'm not religious. I do however have an ethical standard that I try to live by. I derive my "code of ethics" from what I think of as a simple Universal Principle (This principle also defines the subject for me.) ... Cause and effect. I do a thing. That's the cause. That causes a sort of chain reaction that culminates in the result or effect. So I consider that I can pretty much do what ever I want so long as I'm willing to accept and live with the consequences. Which thing makes me stop and think before doing a thing. So I tend to act rather than re-act. That works pretty good for me. I usually end up treating the other person the way I'd want to be treated, accepting things as they are, just letting some things pass (I mean, how important is it ... Really?), etc. So ... For what its worth, that's my take on the thing. And it works well enough for me. ~ Peace & Blessings ~


I have three broken tarsals and lots of bruising, and am walking with a plastic foot/leg brace and crutches. The doc hasn't really been helpful in terms of what lies ahead for me & I wasn't thinking clear enough to ask during the visit. Now that I'm home and cannot work, I'm starting to wonder what is in store for me, and due to finances I will not be able to pay for any therapy.  Can someone give me advice - I would be most grateful!

Fractures take 6-8 weeks to heal.  I am presuming that no surgery was necessary to fix the bones/that you have no pins in place.  Given that you will need to stay off the foot until the bones are healed.  It will not be pain free once the cast (you may not even be in a cast yet, but you will be) comes off, but use your head about activity.\n\nThe tarsals can be a tricky group of bones to get complete healing.  Your doctor may be waiting for the swelling to decrease and for things to settle down before making any prognosis.  Ask him or her at your next appointment.  With this group of bones, it is entirely possible you that you will need physical therapy.  Ask you doctor about a "Les Franc" injury.  This is a special case that has a particularly bleak prognosis as far as your foot ever being normal again. \n\nIs there anything to do right now?  Not really.  If you smoke, stop.  Eat a healthy diet.  Keep things elevated and iced.  \n\nIs there some sort of desk duty or something you can do at your work, because if you need full use of your foot to do your work, its going to be a few months.

That huge flower that only grows in the Amazon that has the fragrance of rotting meat to attract insects to eat them. I don't know what its name is, but it is reddish-purple and can be up to 5 feet across.


My best friend (who recently admitted to liking me for two years)has been getting angry or hurt whenever I don't just KNOW something about him. He feels that best friends should just know everything about each other. And on most things I do. But sometimes he only tells me part of the story and just wants me to know him well enough to figure out the rest. He thinks he knows EVERYTHING about me, but he doesn't. He knows alot, but that's because i'm really honest with him. So alot of times he assumes, when he really doesn't get it. And then he tries to tell me how I feel! He thinks he knows me better than I know myself. Since we have been friends for two years, Should I know him well enough to just fill in the blanks?

thanks for answering my question! (first of all).. now to help ypu with yours.. COMMUNICATION is key.. nobody can know everything about someone.. he is acting like he has OCD or someting... you know things that you remember and admire about folks.. not their whole self.. because that is an illusion.. it can totally change at any given moment when a person changes their mind. dont let him be so controlling.. tell him to go with the flow and if you dont know or REMEMBER everythng about him.. IT'S NOT LIFE OR DEATH! LOVE IS FRIENDSHIP..


individually u can improve your attitude not only for your team but also if you go into college with the attitude you r going to get laid out remember team first the personal stats untill u get pro then u can worry bout your personal numbers cause thats your paycheck till then its all about the team

My mother said that some time ago individuals would send a graduation invitation to the president and in turn they would respond with a congratulatory letter.  I had never heard of this.  Does anyone know what she is talking about?

People extend invitations to the president all the time.  For information, see the link below:


Can any1 tell m e what the "effective delayed neutron precourser decay constant" is

It's the RECIPROCAL of the half life. The half life is the time it takes for the radioactivity intensity to decrease to one half of the intensity that was present at an arbitrarily selected starting time (t = 0), or the time it takes for one half of the radioactive atoms to convert (decay) to their new state (and possibly become new elements).


What is the best compression utility on Windows that supports the most popular compression formats: zip, rar, ace, cab, tar, tar.gz, gz, etc; and is below USD$30 (doesn't have to be freeware); has a decent UI, and fairly large user base?

well Winrar is Very Good.\n\nbut KGB Archiver is Much Better when it comes to high compression\n\nKGB Archiver:\nhttp://kgbarchiver.sourceforge.net/


what is it like? what have you seen ? is it getting any better ? what do you do there on your assignment ?

I'm in Iraq right now. Me being on here should give you an idea of what I'M doing...nothing. What's it like? HOT! Alot of people do have it pretty rough over here though, but I wouldn't say the majority have it all that bad. It just sucks being away from home for so long. I don't think it's really getting better. They're gonna fight us as long as we're here.


For this type of large generator (w/ brush), does the stator commonly house the field windings or the armature windings?\nHow large is the machine (please indicate dimensions: height, width, length, rotor and shaft diameter)?\nHow many poles are there?\nDoes the field windings use flat wires or large copper wires?\nWhat does the rotor look like?

great question. but u can witness these type in powerplants only. tat to it will be a.c. and not d.c. these have a prime mover of steam turbine. it will be largest ever found and if it d.c. it will have lots of losses and usually they produce a.c. go to the powerplants and visit the generators. u can use the formula n=(120f/p) where n is the rpm and p is the no.of poles and f is the frequency. they may have salient pole type rotor. i don know the dimensions. but the conductors are not cooled by air but with nitrogen..

What is CGT? When would you have to pay it? When wouldnt you

CGT are taxes placed on profits from the sale of investments or real estate.\n\nCharitable giving is often used to either balance or void completely the impact of the CGT.


I was term. and I think it could be classified as wrongful termination and I am also looking into filing for harasment/ostile environment. \n\nI dont have a copy of my reviews, and my one verbal warning write up. Do I have the right to request those things in writing from my former employer? Are there any links which clearly state this right?

While you worked there, you were entitled to have a copy of absolutely anything you signed (which you probably signed your corrective action).  You are entitled to view every last thing in your file regarding any grievances/proof/documentation the company had against your performance (except for anything related to any criminal investigation had they been conducting one).  You can try to call their bluff and contact them stating that you would like to see copies of what you signed and documents related to your performance.  I think they have the right to deny you since you no longer work there.  I worked with a lawyer in a claim I am not allowed to say details of.  Marc Levine was my lawyer - a great wrongful termination/discrimination/sexual harrassment/workplace grievances lawyer.  I have nothing but great things to say about him.  He works on a purely contingency basis so you only pay him if you win the claim or settle out of court.  I will give you his number if you want it so that you can see if you have a claim.  I think he will be able to subpeona those documents should it go that far.  He will be able to tell you what to do next.


My doctor Prescribed it for sleep is it used for anything ele?

Amitriptyline is a medication used to treat various forms of depression, pain associated with the nerves (neuropathic pain), and to prevent migraine headaches. It is sold in the United States under the brand name Elavil.\nAmitriptyline helps relieve depression and pain. It is often used to manage nerve pain resulting from cancer treatment. Such injury to nerves causes a burning, tingling sensation. This medication, usually given at bedtime, helps patients sleep better\nPatients should not suddenly stop taking this medication. The dose should gradually be decreased, then discontinued. If the drug is abruptly stopped, the patient may experience headache, nausea, discomfort throughout the body, and a worsening of original symptoms. Amitriptyline's effects last for three to seven days after the medication has been stopped. Older adults usually are more prone to some side effects. These include drowsiness, dizziness, mental confusion, blurry vision, dry mouth, difficulty urinating, and constipation. Taking a lower dose may help resolve these problems. Patients may need to stop this medication before surgery.\nCommon side effects associated with amitriptyline include dry mouth, drowsiness, constipation, and dizziness or lightheadedness when standing. Patients can suck on ice cubes or sugarless hard candy to combat the dry mouth. Increased fiber in the diet and additional fluids may help the constipation. The dizziness is usually caused by a drop in blood pressure when changing position. Patients should slowly rise from a sitting or lying position if dizziness is noticed. Amitriptyline may increase the risk of falls in older adults. Patients should not drive or operate machinery or appliances while under the influence of this drug. Alcohol and other central nervous system depressants can increase drowsiness. Amitriptyline may also produce blurry vision and an irregular or fast heartbeat. Amitriptyline also may raise or lower blood pressure, or cause palpitations. This medication may increase or decrease diabetic patients' blood sugar levels. Amitriptyline may make patients' skin more sensitive to the sun. Patients should avoid direct sunlight, wear protective clothing, and apply sunscreen with a protective factor of 15 or higher.\n\nAmitriptyline may increase appetite, cause weight gain, or produce an unpleasant taste in the mouth. It may also cause diarrhea, vomiting, or heartburn. Taking this medication with food may decrease digestive side effects. Other less likely side effects include muscle tremors, nervousness, impaired sexual function, sweating, rash, itching, hair loss, ringing in the ears, or changes in the make up of the patient's blood. Patients with schizophrenia may develop an increase in psychiatric symptoms.\ndon't let this list intimidate you - all drugs have many possible side effects and they appear in various intensities. i guess that the dosage given to help you sleep is lower than that used for treating depression, so the side effects should not be as intense as with other patients given this drug.

My mother likes to wrestle a walrus in the town centre on a saturday night after downing 12-15 pints of guiness shes 73 does anyone elses mother have similarly strange hobbys

That's interesting...where did she get the walrus from?  My mother doesn't have any really strange hobbies.  I would have some strange hobbies if I could but I'm poor.


what iam actually saying is that iam 29years old but i still cannot talk to ladies. i see beautiful babes, but cannot have acces to them. so pls u guys  shuold do me a favour by teaching me how to get a girlfriend.

Just try to be yourself. I've found that women like honesty and are not impressed with pick up lines. Most women just want to talk to a genuine guy who is not looking to get laid right away. Stay away from really good looking women. They are messed up. Remeber ths song "If you want to be happy for the rest of your live, never make a pretty woman your wife". Go out to social scenes like hikes, bike trials, etc. The bars are for losers.


Hydrogen and oxgyen, by themselves, are both very explosive.  Why, when they are put together to form H2O, do they create something that actually puts out fires?  In a sense, it is the opposite effect of when they are separate from each other.  (Hopefully you get the jist of what I'm trying to say. I'm not all that into chemistry, it's just something that came to mind one day)

fire is the heat let off by oxidation (bonding oxygen to other compounds) since the oxygen in water is already bonded to hydrogen it can't be used in the oxidation of the fuel of the fire. water w/ it's high heat capacity absorbes a lot of energy  and also prevents oxygen from getting to the fuel.


Ok.  So you know those days when you feel awesome and you feel like nothing can bring you down but just the night before you were sad.  well vice verse you have a great day and the next day you are depressed for no reason, why is that... no factors involved i.e. death, bad grades, etc.

You are letting your chemical reactions determine your moods. With consciousness you can choose to be happy - not for any reason, just to be happy!


Beloved, let us once more praise the rain. \nLet us discover some new alphabet, \nFor this, the often praised; and be ourselves, \nThe rain, the chickweed, and the burdock leaf, \nThe green-white privet flower, the spotted stone, \nAnd all that welcomes the rain; the sparrow too,—\nWho watches with a hard eye from seclusion, \nBeneath the elm-tree bough, till rain is done. \nThere is an oriole who, upside down, \nHangs at his nest, and flicks an orange wing,—\nUnder a tree as dead and still as lead; \nThere is a single leaf, in all this heaven \nOf leaves, which rain has loosened from its twig: \nThe stem breaks, and it falls, but it is caught \nUpon a sister leaf, and thus she hangs; \nThere is an acorn cup, beside a mushroom \nWhich catches three drops from the stooping cloud. \nThe timid bee goes back to the hive; the fly \nUnder the broad leaf of the hollyhock \nPerpends stupid with cold; the raindark snail \nSurveys the wet world from a watery stone... \nAnd still the syllables of water whisper: \nThe wheel of cloud whirs slowly: while we wait \nIn the dark room; and in your heart I find \nOne silver raindrop,—on a hawthorn leaf,— \nOrion in a cobweb, and the World. \n\nConrad Aiken

if there is/can it be used to buy alcohol in a pa state store

It's not a scam, but it's also not a legitimate form of ID for buying alcohol, according to the law. You have to have a state or federally issued photo ID to buy alcohol. That means a drivers license, state issued identification card, or a passport. \n\nBasically, it comes down to this. If you're 21 or over - get a state-issued ID, and you will be able to buy alcohol. If you're not 21 yet, any form of ID you carry saying that you're over 21 is considered fake ID, and is against the law.


For additional information, i have Pentium 3 with 128 MB Ram. SO please tell me is it possible to use two hard disks on same computer? If yes how?

Introduction:\n\nThere are thee different parts to a hard disk installation. You need to physically install the disk, tell the computer it has a new hard disk and finally configure the disk to work with your operating system. All of these points will be covered in detail. \n\nSetting the jumpers:\n\nOkay, so you need to get inside your PC, unscrew the screws that are holding the thing together. These are normally found around the edges of the back of the case. The number of screws can range from 2 to 6 screws, and all of them need to be out to gain access to your base unit. \n\nOnce inside, you will see a heap of cables and a lot of circuit boards, now don’t be scared, you can do this!\n\nRight, we need to prepare the hard disk. Take it out of any packaging it may have, and look carefully at the label on top. There should be a section on this label concerning jumper settings, these are very important. If you are installing the new hard disk and removing the old one, you can ignore this setting. However, if you are adding the new hard disk to the existing one, you need to change the jumper settings to slave. The jumper is a small piece of plastic with 2 metal contacts inside to connect two pins together. It is usually located next to the IDE and power cable connectors on one side of the hard disk. It will be set to Master as default, you need to look at the label on the top side of the hard disk and find out where you need to place the jumper to set it to slave mode.\n\nIDE Channels:\n\nOkay, lets talk IDE channels. This is where it can get a little complicated. There is a ribbon cable plugged into the back of your original hard disk. There should be one other connector on the cable, this may already be connected to your CD Rom drive/DVD drive or CD Writer. If not, just plug in the spare ide connector and away we go. Move onto section 2.\n\nOkay, so, if you’ve got a CD Rom drive/DVD drive or CD Writer, we need to utilise the other IDE connector on the motherboard. You should have had another IDE cable supplied with your CD rom drive. This will plug in on the motherboard directly above/below where your first IDE cable is located. It will only go in one way, so be careful as there are pins involved that if broken will render your computer useless. Once connected, we need to decide where we want to put things. \n\nFor CD rom drives, I would place the CD rom drive on the second IDE channel (set as master) and the extra hard disk set as slave (see above) on the first IDE channel. I will write another guide about choosing the best IDE channels for your peripherals later.\n\nBios Settings:\nOkay, so now you’ve physically connected your drive, its time to tell the bios that we have a new hard disk. You need to enter the bios (basic input output setup) when you boot up your computer, this is usually done by pressing del, F1 or F2 when prompted, around the time when the system is checking RAM. \n\nOnce in, you will be greeted with the familiar blue screen. Most motherboards have an IDE autodetection option, you need to select this by using the arrow keys and selecting with the enter key. \n\nThen you need to select autodetect and select your drive as and when it finds it. \n\nThen, save settings and exit the bios.\n\nPreparing the disk for use:\n\nOkay, now to configure the hard disk. The easiest way to do this is to use FDISK (fixed disk utility) You need to drop into dos mode for this, once there, type FDISK and press enter. \n\nYou will have a menu. At the top of the menu, it will say current fixed disk 1 or something, you need to change to fixed disk 2 – just select change disk and select your new drive (should be fixed disk 2). Now, just to double check, we need to select display partition information, there should be nothing there. If there are partitions defined, you have selected the wrong hard disk. \n\nNow, you need to make a new primary dos partition, select this option from the menu, it will ask if you want to make it


i have had glases since I started school and now im aware of toric contacs. how often do you have to get new ones? Are they comfortable. I have myopic astigmatism so im the perfect candidate for lasik, but im 15.

i also have myopia and astigmatism and i've been wearing contacts since i was 12. the only visible diff. between toric contacts and the regular ones are the three lines near the bottom. they're about the same in comfort as the regular contacts... dry eye is the usual prob for me. but you get used to it. i got an extended wear pair that i change every 6 months.


141 years since the end of slavery. Almost half a century since the civil rights movement. Do African-Americans really still feel oppressed?

Although they have been the champions of blacks who have been oppressed and treated like dirt over the years in the United States, those days have pretty much gone by the wayside for the most part. Oh granted there are and always will be racisim and there is nothing tha can be done about it sadly. The unfortunate part of the NAACP is that because there are no more real hard core causes for them to mount, they have a tendency to go on crusades for asinine reasons, only to make themselves look even more foolish when you bring Jesse Jackson or worse...that simpleton Al Sharpton aboard. Of course the ACLU is the same way. Any cause just to let you know that they are still around. I think that if they re-evaluated their agendas and lobbied for real issues that may arise instead of pushing to make ebonics a second language they could once again be a moving force and one you could begin to take seriuosly once again instead of looking at everything they lobby for with a skewed eye.


how do I keep my baseball cap from smelling like sweat?

Hand wash it with a brush in the sink with liquid soap/detergent, rinse it, spray starch on the inside and out and stuff plastic trash bags in it so you don't lose form.  Leave it sitting somewhere to dry.  Do not use heat to dry it.  The starch will help sweat from soaking in but will not totally prevent it.  I would repeat this process every 2 weeks or as needed.


Tell me the [minimum of 6] basic building blocks of life from the following list.  Give any mnemonic which may have helped.  \n\nSodium\nCarbon\nHydrogen\nNitrogen\nOxygen\nPhosphorous\nSulfur\n\nWhy am I asking this?  Because I know that there's a mnemonic out there that works under "schnapps" which applies to the above.  \nAnd I forgot it.  ^^

Amino Acids = C, H, N, O, S (in a few side chains)\nNucleotides = C, H, N, O, P\nLipids = C, H, O \nCarbohydrates = C, H, O\nWater = H, O\nIons = Na (and Cl, K, Fe, Cu, Zn, etc.)\n\nWith those, you can build pretty much any other biomolecule.

i personally have a copy of the offer contract in my posession. assuming that i scan it in and upload it, what's the best way to spread the word about what specifically the contract says amongst dieters? i am not slandering these people but i AM passing along information as a neutral party and informational resource. people have a right to know what they are paying or about to pay money for. these are the people that are "performing a diet study" and will pay all of the paritcapants $1000 to at the end of the study. some  people have already invested anywhere from $150-$300 in this  and i think they should know what the contract says. i put a similar question up about this in law because i do not want negative legal action filed against me. i am just a messenger. but tell me guys, how am i going to get it out there? what's the best way? i need to know before i go bigger.. thanks..

I generally talk to my cousin in the U.S.(Florida) and I am in India (Mumbai). I either use Skype for better voice and sometimes Yahoo! Messenger. As per the cost structure mentioned above, is this activity costly for me? Please mention the size of this sample talk: UPLOAD > "Hi! How are you? I received your parcel; but haven't opened it since morning.. was too busy actually.." DOWNLOAD > "Ya! I am fine. Please open it soon. Then whats the use of not opening your present on your birthday?"

I dont know whether this will help u or not:\n  I do use SKype, am from chennai(Madras).Everyday i use skype to talk to my Bro and friends in US.Normally i talk for an Hour minimum. Till now my download has not exceeded 1GB/month(Apart from skype this incl. my daily browsing and chatting in YM). So i fel that talking Via skype is the cheapest way for Intal. Calls.\n\n  Regarding your size of the sample talk..sorry i dont have any idea.


Now, cut me some slack here, I do not keep up with sports but when Pat Quinn (Toronto Maple Leafs ex-coach) was recently fired, I thought, why him and why not a player who has not been playing his best.  I mean what incentive does a player have to get more goals (or whatever) if his salary is so high and he gets paid whether or not he plays well. Maybe they should get paid according to results.  Anyway, what do you think?  Educate me if I am totally wrong here.

This truly is a good question, in the spirit of getting paid to play a game, yes they are overpaid as compared to someone who is actually doing something important, Teachers, Police officers, doctors. However, when you think about the obscene amounts of money being made by professional sports leagues, without the players none of this would be possible, so they do deserve the money that they actually are bringing into the games they play. You should see a great movie called "Eight Men Out" and you'll see how greedy the owner's used to be. Mickey Mantle one year won the triple crown in baseball, that is a rare award, it is for the player who had the most home runs, most runs batted in and highest batting average. He was rewarded by a cut in his salary, even though his numbers were the best, they were lower than the year before, hence the pay cut. It's all relative.

ihave this math problem thatr says\nquantitative comparison:\ncolumn A       column B\n180(.5)^2      20(1.5)^2\n\nand i have no clue what it wants cause i missed four days of school coming back from spring break \nsomeone please explain what i am suppose to be doing i don't actualy want the answer just an explanation

quantitative comparison is comparing something using numbers rather than descriptions.


I want to ask which club should I choose when I am facing a bunker near the green, because when I am playing 18 holes, I always hit my shot to the bunker and I feel very hard to get the ball up to the green and I saw lots of Pros hitting the bunker shot and control them very well , so please tell me what degree of sand wedge should I use(56 or 60 degree) an how to hit the shot better?

Best thing to do, watch how the pro swings in the bunker. Practice your bunker shots and you will see how versatile one club can be


Can you think of any way in which it would be possible for you to be your own grandparent?\n\nI know of 2.

Here's one from a movie I once saw:\n\nMany many years ago when I was twenty three, \nI got married to a widow who was pretty as could be. \nThis widow had a grown-up daughter \nWho had hair of red. \nMy father fell in love with her, \nAnd soon the two were wed. \n\nThis made my dad my son-in-law \nAnd changed my very life. \nMy daughter was my mother, \nFor she was my father's wife. \n\nTo complicate the matters worse, \nAlthough it brought me joy, \nI soon became the father \nOf a bouncing baby boy. \n\nMy little baby then became \nA brother-in-law to dad. \nAnd so became my uncle, \nThough it made me very sad. \n\nFor if he was my uncle, \nThen that also made him brother \nTo the widow's grown-up daughter \nWho, of course, was my step-mother. \n\nFather's wife then had a son, \nWho kept them on the run. \nAnd he became my grandson, \nFor he was my daughter's son. \n\nMy wife is now my mother's mother \nAnd it makes me blue. \nBecause, although she is my wife, \nShe's my grandmother too. \n\nIf my wife is my grandmother, \nThen I am her grandchild. \nAnd every time I think of it, \nIt simply drives me wild. \n\nFor now I have become \nThe strangest case you ever saw. \nAs the husband of my grandmother, \nI am my own grandpa.\n\nc",)

If they did that my friend then then the game wouldn't be afoot any more and we would lose all our fun.


There is this one girl that keeps hangin out with me and my possie @ lunch. She is really nasty, she really wants to be friends but she lice-infected.She has no one else!I feel soo bad!

If you care enough to feel bad, maybe you are more friend than you realize.  30 years from now she will be the only one you have any contact with... I would worry less about image, and that posse and more about doing the right thing.  Maybe have her over for a makeover... or have your posse do a total makeover on her... shes probably just scared or doesnt know what to do.


Next year I will be in the 8th grade and we are required to take showers and not allowed to use bathing shorts.What should I do?Help!!

you cant be required. The school cannot MAKE you strip down and shower after gym class. Who ever told you otherwise is lying. Talk to your parents, talk to your principal, there is absolutely no reason for any child to bath naked around other children. \n\nYou shouldnt be ashamed of your body at any age of your life. What is normal for one 14 year old, isnt for another. Development varies according to genetics and many other factors. Never feel ashamed of yourself. \n\nAlso realize that no one has a right to see you, or make you get naked, not even your school.


To be honest with you, you need to type in that question in the Yahoo search box instead of asking us. Most of the people who Know about that mayy possibly beold or has studdied that before.


I have CFS and am finding it very difficult mentally and physically. I am slowing putting on weight as I can't exercise. I tried walking but it wears me out for two days afterwards. Does anyone know any excercises I can do where I can atleast mantain my weight, without it affecting me too much?

I also had CFS and poor concentration. I decided to take drastic measures and cut out all sugar and white flour from my diet. The first two weeks, felt worse, but then I started to lose tons of weight, had tons of energy. Then I started walking. A little at first (you will be sore) and then more. I lost 70 pounds in 6 months and started running (ME!) I never felt better in my life, and have never had any more symptoms, except when I am not careful in my diet. You have to stick to whatever you decide to do- tell yourself it's like a marriage- sometimes you don't want to, but you do what's right, anyway.  Email me Trijoy726@yahoo.com. I will be happy to help if you need encouragement or support!


I always thought that while you're at bat, any runs scored is considered your RBI (including walks, hit by pitch, etc.)  Are runs scored from a wild pitch with a runner on third base scored as RBI to the batter in the Major Leagues?\nPlease no speculation here. . .I already have that. . .thanks in advance!

Walks and HBPs count as RBIs, as do sac bunts and sac flies. If the batter grounds into a double play, he does NOT get credit for an RBI. He also doesn't get credit if the run scores on a passed ball, wild pitch or error.\n\nCheck out rule 10.04:


I was playing around with my spoon one day while I was eating some pudding. I placed my spoon close to my eye and the light from the living room (a small spec of light) reflected onto my spoon and I saw all different kinds of micro oranisms in the small spec of light on my spoon. I can prove this to other people but you have to have the light and the spoon at a certain angle or it won't work. The spoon and the light won't have the effect if they are not at the right angles they have to be at the exact angles to work. It is very hard to get the spoon and the light at the right angles in order to get the effect. The spoon has to have the perfect amount of light to have the affect. I am only 14 and is this an amaxong discovery? How can I spread the word of this even though it's hard to prove?

perhaps start with your science teacher at your school.


on my comp to delete any spyware/adware, Ive used Spybot and Ad Aware but still have ads coming up (I'm following instructions to do it) but it just says program in use.\nWhat next please?

Does it advertise a particular spyware program?\n\nLike spywarequake or falcon?\n\nAs these are actually the spyware, which has got on your computer via a trojan.  Give me some more info and i can probably find you the exact fix.\n\nI got one yesterday that norton or any adaware program couldn't pick up, and I had to manually uninstall it.\n\nOtherwise, as said, look up the item using a search engine, incl. the word remove...\n\nYou should be able to access regedit, by going to Start Menu, Run.  Then type regedit & press enter.  (as long as your using the full access account (administrator).  If you can't reboot into safe mode & try again.\n\nIf you don't know exactly where to go & what to change, then don't go into regedit, you won't get there by looking!\n\nThe fix should follow the following steps:\n\nRename bad dll's in the system32 folder\nReboot into safe mode\nRemove any program from the add/remove programs option.\nRemove the bad dll's you renamed.\nRun a registry fix (pre-made for you)\nRun a trojan killer\nReboot into a clean machine.\n\nBut until we know the name of the virus/spyware, I can;'t give an exact fix.


I recently read a book by a Christian scientist who stated that the mathematical chances of evolution occuring by chance with no influence from an inteligent designer was the same mathematical chance as a toronado blowing through an airplane junkyard and building a 747.

I think being an Atheist takes more faith because if their wrong their in trouble.
