Amway was full of pushy people.  People used to hide from them.  But times have changed.  Internet means you don't have to bug your friends and family.  Pyramid is not a bad thing, and if the company is right you can make lots.  Any idea how much is lots????

I do Xango.  I tell people about it only when I hear that they have a health ailment.  If they don't ask for more info, I leave it alone.  I am NOT pushy.  It can help so many things it sells itself.  I don't need to push it.  People try it once and just keep ordering, and sometimes they start to sell it too and I make money from their sales.  It is pretty lucrative, especially when they sign up someone else.  There really is nothing wrong with MLM, it seems to work - the @sses leave it alone after they have bugged to many of their family and friends without sellling anything, but the good ones just keep quietly chugging along....


as a new yorker(originally from manhattan), i obviously was deeply affected that day. but i had friends in south florida and in northeast california, who were like "huh?" because they had no idea what i was talking about. "planes?" "world trade center?" as if they paid no mind. be honest fellow americans, were you truly shocked and concerned or was it too damn early(west coasters) to care what the hell was going on. or did you just care whether or not little johnny made it to school on time?

i live in Oregon ! i never saw or heard about the twin towers. 9/11 happen and now i want two no all about them and yes i care


I live in Michigan but will re-locate if need be.

To be a career firefighter (paid), you need to take a civil service test for the department that you choose.  Look up departments on the web, find one that is hiring, take the test, do good, interview, get hired.  Now there are possible variations to this.  Some depts. require a physical fitness test inserted somewhere in there (it can vary with the dept.)  Keep in mind most places have residency requirements, you need to live there to get hired there.\nBecoming a volunteer firefighter is much easier, go to the station, fill out an application, join (with some variations between departments).  Be aware though that the skills, competency, discipline and overall attitude of these departments is generally much lower.  There will be those that argue this, but I almost guarantee that they are vollies and not paid.\nThe best advice though is to find a department that is hiring soon and follow whatever directions they give you, and to the letter.\nGood luck & stay safe.


How many authors are there for the manuscripts? How many different languages were used?

Early copies:\n\nThe Codex Sinaiticus, is in the British Museum\nThe Codex Alexandrinus, is in the British Museum\nThe Codex Vaticanus, is guess where? Yes, the Vatican\n\nAncient Versions and Texts:\n\nThe Septuagint, an early translation from Hebrew to Greek\nThe Samaritan Pentateuch, not strictly a version but is the Hebrew text perpetuated in Samaritan characters\nPeshitta or Syriac, translation into common Syrian language\nThe Vulgate, translated into Latin\nThe Masoretic Text, the Hebrew text used today\n\nEarly English Versions:\n\nJohn Wycliffe bible\nWillaim Tyndale Bible\nMiles Coverdale Bible\nMatthew's Bible\nThe Great Bible\nThe Geneva Bible\nThe Bishops bible\nThe Douay Bible\nThe King James Bible\nThe Revised Version\nThe American Standard Version\n\nEnglish Versions since 1901\n\nThe Revised Standard Version\nThe Berkeley Version\nThe Amplified Bible\nThe Jerusalem Bible\nNew English Bible\nNew American Standard Bible\nThe Living Bible\nToday's English Version (Good News Bible)\nNew International Version\nNew King James Version\n\nAll these bibles, all these different versions, all these different authors, and yet they all say the same thing.  Hmmm, man-made?  Not likely, not practical, not mathematically probable.


we have been friends for a long time .but now everyone is always saying how much we love eachother. i'm not even sure how i feel about him! i m moving soon and i realy want 2 know before i go.

You want to know so you can what?  If you dont have love feelings for him like "that" why bother trying to find out?  Surely you wouldn't want to try to get involved in a relationship just because he may be in love with you.  If you dont feel the same, don't TRY to feel the same.  Keep it real.


My husband's ex-wife left his 2 small children on our doorstep 12 years ago when they were only 3 and 4 1/2 years old. The court custody papers say that my husband has sole custody and in addition to the support payments his ex must pay, she must also pay for 1/2 of all doctor bills (both kids are insulin dependent diabetics which is a very expensive disease).  She has NEVER made a single payment...in 12 years!  Is there anything we can do now to collect some of the money owed?  Our oldest is going to college in the fall and HE could use the extra capital.  We live in Palm Beach County, Florida.  I appreciate any and ALL answers.

The best thing to do is contact the Florida Child Support Enforcement Program. See their site below.


yes being the obvious answer .house resolution #635 has made little movement since its introduction. Is the congress moviing to slowly and do you feel the new electoriat will get the ball rolling a little quicker before more damage is done .how soon will we remove senate resolution 23. ending the authority of the president wide ranging powers which should be returned to the senate and house how such messures meet the constitution are beyond me .

Americans have a duty, but nobody is.  Thomas Paine was exiled for less than people are being imprisoned for today.\n\n"Liberal media"?  What liberal media?  The only independent voices are internet sites (Mediamatters, Counterpunch, Daily Kos, et al) and a few magazines (Utne Reader, Mother Jones, New Internationalist, et al).  The "liberal media" is playing conductor on the express train to dictatorship.

Are you celebrating 5 de Mayo today??\nIf so, where too??

Yes,it is my birthday so I always get to celebrate it.


and is it better to be your own server or leave that to the big guys, ive heard things like certain internet providers such as mine Charter DSL, if you try and become your own server there are sometimes conflicts with how it all works, i dont really understand but someone who might, give us a brief rundown would ya? whos some of the best companies to go through for web hosting, but that also has everything else you need to work with your site, like globalscape or somn that has cute ftp, isnt there a host and web controlling company all in one so as to minimize all the different accounts and companies you have to deal with?

Depends if you want to spend money or not. I use yahoo cause it's a reputable company, and with the one username and password that I have for yahoo.mail I have access to all my hosting and domain services.  I got a deal from them for $2.99 domain name, which I own, and actually now have 3 domains and use their server to host. The cost is minimal $11.00 a month, and I get a site tracker service that gives me the rundown of how many times my site has been visited, which pages were visited, and the average screen resolution of the computers that visited my site. I also have 200 email addresses that I can create with 2 G of space (which is expandable). There are alternatives though that cost less. IX Webhosting (www.ixwebhosting.com) is a cheap alternative. You get 10 G of space and 2 domains for like $4 a month. However, I don't think you get any email services from them, but It all depends if you need something like that. Both Yahoo and IX will provide you usernames and passwords for FTP, all you need is the FTP program which are easy to find. If you need one go to the website below.


I need some contact lens but have very little money

GO TO WALL-MART---I PAY ABOUT 120 $ FOR 6 MONTHS + eye exam,


Well I was checking at some websites but I can't find any good ones. So do you know any sites I can do this?


ok\nso\nthere is a man trapped in a room\nthere is NO way to get out through walls, doors(there are none), or windows(also none).\nall that there is in the room is a table and a saw.\n\nhow did he get out?\n\n******(and yes he did get out)

He cut the table in two halves.\n\nTwo halves make a whole.\n\nHe crawled out through the hole.\n\nThere's another way: he ran around until he wore himself out.


This man says he was in the military but I think hes an insurgent

I think he needs to be tossed out of America. Our flag stand for our freedom and my dad was in 2 wars He was a hero along with thousands of others that has been fighting  for our freedom. My brother has been over in Irac 2 times. I solute our service men. But this guy is  a jerk. It is an insult to walk on the flag or to even let it touch the ground. He is a insurgent... This I agree.


ok, so i like this guy, ill call him Z.. well Z almost always wants to hang out with me, and i get the feeling he talks about deep stuff with me and not with his other friends.. . the problem is that i have the HUGEST crush on him, and i feel like hes never gonna "notice me", ya kno? i just dont kno what to do, should i keep tryin for him to like me? or should i just give up...

if yall can talk about deep stuff together maybe yall can talk about that together. be honest and tell him. if he isnt interested you still have dignity and your friendship. best wishes


My wife is going throught a Workers Comp claim and her lawyer is charging 30% of what she receives - is this a reasonable fee?

If he's getting 30%, at least you know that it's in the lawyer's interest to try and get her the maximum amount of money. The more she gets the more he gets.


the only part i can remeber is" i'm 53 only for a moment" the song goes though different ages in his lifetime.

its called "100 years" by five for fighting.


It is my understanding based on my research that the word JIHAD refers to a non violent conversation of non muslims to the islamic faith.\n\nIt has been perverted to mean a violence against the non muslim.\n\nThis is one of my "serious" questions, to which I hope and pray that the regulars will give me serious answers, and cite references please.

Jihad in an islamic arabic meaning is fighting the evil.\nnow the there are many kinds of jihad,\nThe first and most important kind is self jihad ( jihad al nafs ) which means fighting the evil inside yourself, fighting your urge to disobey god, fighting your human nature to commit a sin.\n\nThe second type is fighting the evil that exists in life, such as crimes, abuse, any type of evil that exists in a normal everyday life. so you might as well call police officers jihadists, because they fight the evil in society.\n\nthe third type is fighting the evil that wants to kill or opress or wipe out the word of islam, and the word of god as a one and only force and creator., for example, like the war against crusades(which was actually war against islam and killing as many), The war on terrorism is actually jihad, because it kills the evil that impersonates islam, also war against those who hurt or abuse or try to distort any muslim or any islamic figure or holy character, i.e. god, muhammad.\n\nSo as you might have guessed, the word jihad has almost half its meaning in a Non Violent way, Jihad is what i do when i defend islam from rumors and fake information that are hate driven.\nJihad is when i make peace with anyone and let him understand what islam is truely about and who is allah and muhammad pbuh.\nJihad is loving your enemies, even if you know they plan something against you or hate you, because you are actually fighting the evil on them and destroying the evil in someone by just smiling in his face.\nJihad is what i am doing right now by answering your question and letting everybody know what the word jihad means, and that god is the most merciful, and that he is one and only.\n\nP.S. in this case you are not the evil, you are correcting the evil that already took place by stereotyping and hating and rumors, and i am taking part as well. so thank you because you are acutally doing jihad by correcting wrong information by asking this question, and i am doing it as well by answering with my knowledge that god blessed upon me.\n\npeace and blessings.\nmuslim.


Is there any difference in the professions or just in the people they work with???

INTRODUCTION\nFor starters, psychology must be distinguished from behavioural science and psychiatry from neuromedicine. Psychology and psychiatry are subtly different to each other but it's important to realise that neither are scientific disciplines- they are pseudosciences.\n\nWHAT PSYCHOLOGY IS NOT\nPsychology is not behavioural science. Behavioural science is about observing the behaviour of living creatures and drawing conclusions about that behaviour and its causes and its consequences. The context of the behavioural science could be anything from criminology to neuromedicine.\n\nWHAT PSYCHIATRY IS NOT\nPsychiatry is not neuromedicine. Neuromedicine is about healing a physical, observable anomoly in tissue that is causing a problem with the nervous system resulting in observable, behavioural symptoms such as tardive dyskinsea, motor disfunction, etc. or at the very least treating the conditions and problems that arise from the neurological problem if it cannot be mended. Neuromedicine is genuine medicine and it is entirely scientific. Genuine neurophysicians are not psychiatrists.\n\nWHAT PSYCHOLOGY IS\nPsychology comes from the Greek word "psuche" which refers to the soul, spirit or mind of a person. Behavioural studies are science but making suggestive comments about the mind, soul and spirit is the realm of religion. Psychology is not science; it is pseudoscience. Psychology, by making statements about the mind, soul and spirit- in unbiblical terms- is simply another false religion. The ideas in psychology (i.e. the religious ideology) is all about "self-" me me me. It is ideological in the very same way that communism, naziism and all other fascist movements are ideological. The ideology is pushed down people's throats but made to look "gentle." So "psychotherapy" is made to look helpful and dressed up as medicine. But it has NO FACTUAL BASIS. It is a false religion. Because it has no factual basis, coersion is utilised to ensure people follow it. This is where psychiatry comes in.\n\nWHAT PSYCHIATRY IS\nPsychiatry is a coersive, controlling regime. It is witchdoctoring under the guise of medicine. The religious ideology of psychology is pedalled but it is rammed down people's throats with threats of terrible torture, mutilation, poisoning, incarceration, segregation and deprivation of livelihood. Psychiatrists lie to people. They make out that man ought to be a self-serving entity and that he has no need for God. Hypnosis using mind-altering drugs is practiced to weaken people's resolve. The Greek word for this hypnosis is "pharmakeia" which is translated in The Bible as witchcraft (Gal 5:20). The drugs in psychiatry are usually seen as different to the drugs on the street but in fact they do the very same thing as the street drugs people use "illegally" to get high. In fact sometimes the drugs in psychiatry are the very same drugs as the ones on the street. The coersion and control doesn't just stop with poisoning people with drugs. Incarceration without trial is routinely used and, in the context of psychological indoctrination, this is just inquisition. Other tactics are used which are equally violent. The victim of psychiatry is usually branded for life in a way that makes him out to be subhuman, a "diseased" subcitizen, a criminal with a record but no evidence of a crime, a punishable target for bullies on fat salaries with no moral backbone but great tendency to judge others.\n\nCONCLUSION\nSo here's your answer: psychology and psychiatry are witchcraft and witchdoctoring. They come under the collective term "witchery" which is just plain and simply false religion. It is a violent, coersive regime and a load of rubbish.


I owe $$ on my student loans. I received some information about refinancing which sounds pretty good. Does anyone have any advice on this? What are the advantages and disadvantages of doing this?

Yes if your payments and interest rate is loweredd and it doesn't it is not expensive.\n\nYou should look into refinancing only if the above is true.\n\nThe advantages is that you would make lower monthly payments, though it might be spread over a longer period of time. If you can keep the same time frame for paying the loan off with lower payments that would be better.\n\nThe disadvantage is if you don't refinance to a lower rate and lowere payment you will continue to pay the same monthly payment as you are now which might be higher unless you look into the possibility of refinancing the loan.\n \nYou might try this link and see if they can offer you a better deal.\n\nwww.nextstudent.com\n\nI hope this  has been of some use to you, good luck.\n\n"FIGHT ON"


why did you switch from an Apple computer to a PC


(Please list a few good sites with pictures & positions of ancient thai massage)

Traditionally, it's performed on a padded floor mat instead of on a table; the client stays fully dressed and no oil is used. The practitioner adjusts to your level of flexibility and fitness. It works wonders to improve flexibility, release toxins and unravel your gnarliest knots. When it's over, you'll feel really, really good – in a revved-up, high-on-life kind of way.


I was watching SpongBob last night with my son.  This program came on right afterwards.  I sat and watched a few minutes of it and was completely apalled.  It has pre-teen children acting like young adults.  There was a girl on there ... maybe 13 years old, wearing a short skirt, flirting with a boy.  As she walked away she flipped her hair and shook her butt in a provocative way.  No GD wonder kids are trying to have sex when they are this young ... shows like this have enough adult ineundos in them to make kids think it is ok.

Well, it is Brittany Spears's younger sister, and we all know what a wholesome role model Brittany is. And Sponge Bob is awesome. It's a cartoon, with animated characters, which children know are not real, provided they were taught what is real and what is fiction. But these tween shows portray live action actors, it is giving pre teens a sense of reality that is unachievable because it doesn't have a ridiculous premise like other shows. I wouldn't want my daughter to grow up and try to emulate that. If it were animated it would not have the same impact, but when real people act out these situations it becomes more plausible to a very young and impressionable mind.

What is the average time for a woman to achieve orgasm? What is the average number of to and fro motions she need to achieve orgasm?

It is easier for a female to orgasm by herself than with a partener. With a partener is more fun though. Practice masturbation and you'll know what to do and how long you can make yourself last. I take you're a virgin still, by your question, so experiment on yourself and you'll understand. That's the safest way.


i understand to lose weight you need to diet and exercise. and i know how to exercise and i know that to diet you need to cut back on what you eat and eat healthier foods...my question is what are some healthy (and good) foods that can be eaten?

Okay...try to eat 6 times a day....do 20-45 minutes of cardio atleast 3 times a week. Lifting of course to help build muscle which will help  burn fat stores quicker. Typical meals....here's an example of mine. \n\nMeal 1: \n6 egg whites \n1 C. oats \nwater \n\nMeal 2: \n3 oz. chicken breast \n3 oz. white potatoe \nwater \n\nMeal 3: \n3 oz. chicken breast \n1 Cup brown rice \nwater \n\nMeal 4: \n3 oz. turkey \n3 oz. sweet pot. \nwater \n\nThis gives you an idea....you should eat every 3 hours....this helps speed up the metabolism as well and the water helps too. And you can have all the veggies you wants.


Vegetables are very low in calories and the fiber in them makes you feel full.  Also soups make you feel full, but you have to be careful to make it a low calorie soup.  Try making a vegetable soup with fresh vegetables.


The reason I am asking this is because i just came from a very heated discussion over the reasons some illegals were brought in.\nAnd for those of you that think it is because Americans didn't want to do the job I have this to say.\n\nI had family from a community badly hit. They with many others did go back to work and do whatever they could.\nAfter all it was their town distroyed.\nAfter being hired they worked thier asses off and then were told they were needed no more.\nWhy?  It wasn't because they didn't need the jobs thats for damn sure.And it wasn't because they wouldn't do the shitty work.\nIt was because contractors could pay illegals alot cheaper wages.\nThey even bused them in.\nSo before you get on your high horse and start pointing fingers at Americans you better stop and think.\n\nSorry for the emotion in this, I usually keep my head in a discussion but this really got under my skin.

Thats not the fault of the worker.........its the contractor exploiting the laborers by pitting them against each other. Don't hate the player....hate the game.

Because  I don´t know anyone  there,   but  I want to travel to United Kingdom to study english.  Here in Brazil If you don´t speak in english, you don´t have a job. \nHelp me!  I am barchelor´s degree in Business.

There are lots of bad English Schools that will take your money and give a bad quality of education. To find a good one, look on the website of 'English UK', an association of English Schools which have received accreditation from The British Council (a UK Government organisation to help people in other countries in their dealings with the UK). The British Council website has some links on the front page explaining all about coming to the UK to study.\n\nFor working in the UK, see the government's 'Working in the UK' website. It explains how to get a 'work permit', how long you can stay, etc. Also, try typing "working in the UK" (in double quotes) into google.


Should I believe my fiance when he says there is nothing going on with her?  If he is lying to me now, how is it going to be when we are married?

She's obviously a desperate dog, who has nothing better to do with her life than try to harrass you. Whatever you do, if you love him, DO NOT badger him and DO NOT start feeling insecure, that is what she wants, you have to trust your man, make this experiance bring you closer together. He will respect you more for being totally honest with him and standing by his side.  The next time she calls you laugh at her and let her know how stupid she is being, make her realise that is why he is with you and not with her


For you muslims who dont believe in all the violence, and think that it is exclusive to the extremists in the middle east, your missing it.\n\nAnd for us Americans who think that the muslims in America arent terrorist in waiting, we are being stupid. \n\nI am not saying ALL are like this, but we cant afford the chance. During WW2 we had Japanese camps that we held over here until they were cleared. We also did the same with known communist party members.\n\nWe need to do the same, and right now.\n\nhttp://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=19070&only\n\nAmerica can not afford another attack, even if it is only a couple hundred or couple thousand people. Our borders are weak.\n\n50 years ago, we would have done this, why dont we do it now.\n\nRound them up, investigate them. If they dont check out, ship them back.

I agree with you totally.  I think why we don't do it now is because in today's world it would be "politically incorrect" to do it. That is why I don't like that stuff on here where they are posing as Moslems and spreading hate and threatening to blow us up.  We dont need another 9/11


I know what highschool boys are like...\n\nsome are good boys and some want relationships but others are mostly after sex.\n\nwhat are college boys like or after\n\nare most looking for sex? Do people date in college?\n\nanything I should look out for in college guys?

Well the ones I've come in contact with are after sex. Some of them have other priorities but even so in my experiences it's always come down to them wanting sex. People do date in college and there are some good guys there. Just look out for the normal things. You know what you're willing to do and not do so just be yourself and don't be afraid to speak your mind and say what you want or don't want.


a new place am working at and this guy comes in every morning to request for a hug. i did not go to work one day and the next day he like he missed me alot wen i didn't show up at work

Sometimes people are just friendly. Its possible he may be interested in you romantically. But its likely too that he just likes you as a friend and likes to hug people. I know I'm a hug person. I like hugging people and I like being hugged. It rarely has anything to do with romantic interest.\n\nAnd there is always the possiblity that the dude is just weird.


SOUNDS PRETTY REASONABLE TO ME, YET THE NEOCONS WILL LABEL ME A 'TREE HUGGING LIBERAL'.  WHY ARE NEOCONS SO SELFISH!?

This is a little off track... but does anyone else want to have a camera ready for when the Neocons get to the pearly gates, so we can take their picture when God says "Not so fast" when they try to get into heaven and then scolds them for doing all these things in "His name"?\n\nI would not want to be them in the afterlife...


Mine would probably be when I met Ernie Banks.  This was outside of the Cubs Spring Training Facility in Arizona.  I saw about 5 or 6 people gathered around a car and I asked a kid who it was.  He said, "Ernie Banks, I think."  The car pulled off and I chased it for about 1/2 a block, but then I gave up and was standing there looking sad when the car stopped and backed up to where I was at.  He was in the passenger seat and rolled down his window.  I was so awestruck that I just held out my hand and said "Mr. Cub"  Luckily, my husband had enough sense to get a couple of baseballs out the bag so we could get his autograph.  He was so nice and genuine.  This was the same day that I begged Barry Bonds for an autograph and didn't get it (I was the only one standing there).  That shows the difference in the older guys and the new ones.  Anyway, that's my best story.  Tell me yours.

I went to an Angels game about 15 years ago and got Dante Bichette's(Right Fielder) attention during pre-game warm ups.  I lied and told him that I was "Joe Mcintrye" from the New Kids on the Block.  He bought it and took me on the field, down into the dugout and in the locker room!  Here I am, a 16 year old frightened kid who is staring the likes of Brian Downing, Dave Winfield and Wally Joyner right in the face inside thier own locker room!  I actually saw Jim Abbott naked lying on the trainers table!  Dante even took me out after the game and bought me dinner at TGI Fridays.  I was scared shitless because if anyone found out, I would be in a heap of trouble!  At least I pulled it off and it is something I can tell my kids someday!


do i need to be licensed or certified? is there a specific program to use? how do the companies you hire to skip trace get thier info?

definitely need to be licensed to be a bounty hunter.  if you are serious, you should check with your local bondsmen.  they are usually located in little rinky-dink shops outside of jails or in poor neighborhoods.


Am i the only one that thinks oprah is a narcisistic b***h that just likes to get on her show and shower herself with praise for all her "selfless" acts? why does she need to announce to everyone all the great things she does...she just wants attention and admiration. its really annoying. this goes for a lot of celebs but i think oprah is the most annoying.

throw Oprah in the recycle bin right on top of the hippies! It's amazing how someone so transparent could fool an entire nation into believing that she is anything other than a total B*tch, Do any of you really think that she would do all those "nice" things if the camera weren't rolling... NO! \nRight on sister! keep fighting the good fight!


I have to make a model on hydroelectricity and I don't know how should I make.Please help!

Most hydroelectricity is made in dams.  When the water flows through the dam, it spins a turbine (picture a long cylinder).  The turbine has a set of magnets on it, and there is another set of magnets surrounding the turbine.  As the turbine spins, the changing positions of the magnets generate electricity.\n\nIf you're talking about a physical model, I can try to explain it to you, but it's kind of hard without pictures.\nHave a box shape as the dam, tall and wide, but skinny from front to back.  About 1/2 of the way up, there's a hole through the dam, to let the water through.  The turbine is a long cylinder with "fins" on one side so that the water can spin it.  The other side (which is separated in order to keep the wires dry) has the magnets on it - three of them evenly spaced around the circumference.  There is another ring around the turbine with another set of three magnets - they should be attached to the dam, not the turbine.  Those magnets will have wires attached, and the wires lead to a power station where the electricity produced is put into a form that we can use.  Look up the Bonneville Dam on an internet search engine - they'll probably have pictures.


and if prayer doesn't work then why pray for sick people to get better?

Or if "faith-healers" were la git. Doesn't hurt to ask though.


What if it was just about America itself and the best things for it.  Screw the political parties. Each one has an agenda to make things better for themselves. Lets quit being so damn selfish and do things for America as a whole.  Is that unreasonable? Or is it impossible?

um, after the anarchy that came about from nobody having anythign to argue about or with, some new parties that are pretty mcuh the same thing probably with the same names would spring up


my sister is an umpirer and she says she can eject me for terning on the score bord can she do that?

The umpire rules the roost. If you are doing something that you shouldn't be doing in the ball park, she can throw you outside the park.


Vagary, Accolade, Incongruity, Assimilate, and Bellicose.

He has dealt with the vagaries of life for too long, it's time he settles down for a simpler life.\n\nThe accolade style of the letter she read disturbed her so deeply, she realized her mother did care.\n\nThe performance was not acceptable to the public, too many people thought the incongruity of the performers was unacceptable.\n\nWhen the child moved into the new house, he felt he needed to assimilate quickly.\n\nWhen the dog was confronted by strangers, he tended to be a bit more bellicose and combative.\n\n\n\nI hope this helped you out darlin.


I was just wondering what is considered an A in the American school system, it's an 86% here in vancouver B.C. how about down south?

In my high school 94% and up was an A. In college the majority of classes used a 10 point scale so 90% and up was an A.


I have been into mountain biking almost all my life. But I never came aware of brands and safety until I moved to the USA. Short ago I purchased a nice looking Mongose bike, and I was told it's more of a commercial bike and I am most likely to have an accident due to the quality of the bike. In the past I purchased bikes unaware of brands or technical stuff, and they worked really good for me, the only issues I faced was mostly with bent rims, besides flat tyres andbroken brake cables (which has nothing to do with the main frame)

Mongoose is not up there with the best, but then, not everyone is rich and not everyone needs every trick in the book! Its a good bike for getting about.\n\nIf you want something serious, durable and great to ride look at Trek, Specialised, Cannondale and Klein (amongst other good makes).\n\nMy current MTB is a Klein Attitude Race. Its superb and good value considering the very high spec'. Try one, buy it or use it as your yardstick when choosing your next bike.

A few of my questions have been deleted after I selected a best answer.  When my question is deleted for violation of terms of service, do these people get to keep the 10 points they got when I selected them as best answer?  Should their points be removed as well as mine?

Yes, they do. It was your violation not their violation. Which questions of yours were removed? I can't imagine why anyone would report you. lol


I was in sleep, actually my afternoon nap got stretched too long n' when my friend came over to visit, I said something angrily coz she woke me up and she too left and is upset :-(\nHow do I apologize?

get her a single stem flower and write her an apology inside of a card, tell her how much your friend ship means and that this really is trivia and you want her as a friend.  Its okay to apologize too.  You have to try something or you could regret it for the rest of your life.

WHAT DO YOU THINK??\n\nhttp://www.pentagonstrike.co.uk/flash.htm#Main\n\nTHIS ONE IS LONGER..\n\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5137581991288263801&q=loose

I have seen several of the conspiracy theory films and they do make me think.\n\nThey insist that the WTC buildings one and two had to have explosive charges placed in them like a controlled demo for them to come down as fast as they did.\n\nThey show, and you can see, puffs of smoke coming out of windows floors below the floors collapsing.  Is this really PROOF that there were explosive charges.  You do not see any flashes with the puffs of smoke.\n\nThey show other tall building fires where they fires lasted longer and the buildings did not collapse.  But in the WTC collapses there were gigantic planes that hit and did a lot of structural damage.  There was also jet fuel that created the fires.  There was a tremendous amount of weight suspended above where the planes hit.  I remember thinking that it was amazing that the buildings did not fall down.  Of course, later they did.\n\nA few years ago (before 9/11/01) there was a 10 floor building being built in Bridgeport CT. There was a construction accident on one of the upper floors and the weight of what fell just massively overwhelmed the support below.  The whole building fell to the ground just like a controlled demo, just like the WTC towers.  There was no bomb, no plane hitting the building, no fire.\n\nI think that there was a lot of damage on the floors where the planes hit.  All it would take would be for one floor to fail and everything above it drops and hits the floor below.  Imagime how much weight that is.  It only gets heavier as it goes.\n\nStill, how the planes and bodies at the Pentagon and in PA completely vaporized makes you wonder.  One film says that flight 93 went to Cleveland and all the passangers were taken off the plane and that even the cell phone calls were fakes.  They do not say what happened to the real passangers after.  Were they all shot?\n\nA lot of the conspiricy theories have as many holes as the supposed cover ups.  Their idea of proof is often pretty lame.

Can you help me on who should be Dorothy, Tin Man, The Cowardly Lion, The Wizard, The wicked witch of the West, Glinda the good witch, & Toto too?

Bad analogy -- in the Wizard of Oz, it turns out at the end that the scarecrow had brains all along, he just didn't know it.  Not the case with Bush.\n\nDorothy -- Condolezza Rice.  I only wish that her whole adventure would turn out to just be a dream!\n\nThe Cowardly Lion -- Donald Rumsfeld, only he never finds his courage like in the movie.\n\nThe Wizard -- Ronald Reagan.  Somebody people thought was important and powerful who turns out to be a big fraud.\n\nThe Tin Man -- Dick Cheny...he's got about as many artificial parts keeping him alive.\n\nGlinda the Good Witch -- Hilary Clinton?\n\nWicked Witch of the West -- Elizabeth Dole.\n\nToto -- Karl Rove, Bush's lap dog that frequently saves his a$$.


There is an internet myth going around that says if you put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coca Cola (active ingredient is supposedly phosphoric acid) for two days, that theoretically the steak is going to dissolve. I think it will not dissolve, but it might change texture or color slightly. You would do the Internet world a favor to try that out and explain why it does, or doesn't dissolve in Coca Cola. You could also use that as an argument for or against having junk food and soft drinks in school cafeterias and halls.


Also, it doesn't mix with water, so it doesn't dissolve. Alcohol is lighter than water too, but it doesn't float, it dissolves.

Prepare. Spend some time researching the company on the Internet. Understand their customers. Understand their business. Dress for the interview, dress to impress. Go over your resume, make sure you are ready for any questions that may come from it "tell me about when you did ..."\n\nGood luck!

that only the people who were really spiritually developed could interpret or decode?\ncould it be possible things were left out that were too powerful and thus dangerous for people who were less developed to handle?\n\nhow has this effected the evolution of spiritual doctrine and of humanity itself?

There is layer after layer of meaning in the Bible, especially in the Torah. The surface level contains a lot of valuable truth, including everything you need to know to find salvation and live a holy life. Underneath that, though, are some very profound truths about the nature of God and our relationship with him and each other. Gematria and Kabalah and other forms of Jewish and Christian mysticism try to get at some of those truths, but I think they all miss the mark at least as often as they hit it.\n\nLately I've been thinking a lot about the Temple and the various things in it, especially about Exodus 25 and 26. When you read Ezekiel 43:10-11, it is clear that there are hidden meanings in the design of the Tabernacle and Temple. "You, son of man, declare to the house of Israel, the temple house, so that they may be ashamed of their iniquities. And let them measure its size. And if they are ashamed of all that they have done, the form of the house, and its arrangement, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its statutes, and all its forms, and all its laws, make known to them. And write them before their eyes, so that they may observe all its form, and all its statutes, and do them."\n\nI believe that the Temple and its articles is a pattern of God, of our relationship with God, of ourselves, and of our relationship with each other, especially within the family.


my friends ex is who i liked but i dont want to tell her

The line that the bass clef curls around is F. From there, it goes up and down 1 step per line or space, just like treble clef.

If the ball is genuine leather, water can cause some dameage to the outside.  It may lose it's grip over time.\n\nIf is a synthetic (which is likely) it should be just fine in the rain with no lasting effects.


I'm a white female and i love black men.  The truth is, that's all i date!  Why do so many people look down on inter-racial relationships and what's your opinions on them.  I also have a multiracial son, my mother says that as he gets older people will make fun of him and he'll be confused about his race. How should i take this?  Is this the truth?

Many people have qualms about it because it's "different". What people don't understand is that "Americans" wouldn't be here if our relatives and ancestors didn't mix. That's what makes us American.\nIt is true that, sadly, your son will have to deal with the confusion of the two races and being picked on. No matter how far in time we go, there will always be someone teaching their children that it's "wrong".\nI would say to not change who you are. Who you love is who you love. Don't let someone scare you or talk you out of it. As for your son, try and make sure he has an understanding and appreciation for both cultures and sides of who he is. And as he gets older, continue to remind him that people just don't understand things sometimes, and they can be mean; but don't hold a grudge. That's the last thing you want him to do. It'll be hard, but continue to encourage him to be himself, not black or white.\nGood Luck and God Bless :)

HEADLINES TODAY:  Israeli fuel firm halts Palestinian gas supply\nSupplies cut due to growing debts; move may deepen humanitarian crisis.\n\nWhy not right?

Why don't the Palestinians get their gas from their Arab Muslim brethren, who care so much about them?

meggar is device used to measure high electrical resistances

A megger is an ohmmeter-type instrument by means of which the value of a resistance can be measured and directly indicated by the position of a pointer on a scale. The resistance indicated in an ohmmeter-type instrument is independent of the voltage applied for a test. \n\nThe instrument system consists primarily of two coils, A and B, mounted on the same moving element, with pointer attached, in a permanent magnet field, Coil A is connected in series with a resistance between the negative side of the generator and the line terminal, and is called the current coil. Coil B, in series with another resistance, is connected across the generator terminals, and is called the potential coil. \n\nThe moving element is mounted in spring-supported jewel bearings and is free to rotate about its axis, since there are no restraining or controlling springs such as there are in an ammeter or voltmeter. Current is led to the coils by flexible conducting ligaments having the least possible torsion, so that the pointer floats permanent magnets, a megger should never be connected to a circuit in which current is flowing and should not be placed on a pole piece or the bedplate of a motor or generator.

It made England the new Naval power. And It was the Naval Power until WW2. I think it still is one of the top naval powers. Once England became naval power, they started to explore different areas of the world and eventually took over almost half the world. (Colonies in North America, Africa, Asia, Australia).\n\nSpain was the naval power until, the spanish armada was defeated. Once it was defeated, England became the new naval power. Marked the End of Spanish Super power.

French Guiana (French: Guyane française, officially Guyane) is an overseas département (département d'outre-mer, or DOM) of France, located on the northern coast of South America. Like the other DOMs, French Guiana is also a région (région d'outre-mer) of France. As part of France, French Guiana is part of the European Union, the currency used is the euro [1].\n\nFrench Guiana is the smallest political entity on the South American mainland (Suriname is the smallest independent South American country). It borders the Atlantic Ocean to the north, Brazil to the east and south, and Suriname to the west (part of the border with Suriname is disputed).\n\nor falkland islands\n\n The Falkland Islands, also called the Malvinas, are an archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean, located 300 miles (483 kilometres) from the coast of South America. They consist of two main islands, East Falkland and West Falkland, together with about 700 smaller islands. Stanley, on East Falkland, is the capital and largest city. The islands are a self-governing Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom, but are the subject of a long-standing claim to sovereignty by Argentina. The formal name of the islands is a matter of dispute.\n\nIn 1982 the islands were invaded by Argentina, precipitating the two-month-long undeclared Falklands War between Argentina and the United Kingdom, which resulted in the defeat and withdrawal of Argentine forces. Since the war there has been strong economic growth in both fisheries and tourism.

One of my friends was really upset because he thinks that Americans have no clue or even care about world events (news). Do you think the same? Here is one question for you to test your own knowledge...\nWhat countries are part of NATO? and Do all participants of NATO have to come to consensus before carring out an action?

I have no doubt there are many well-informed Americans, but they are in a minority. There was a poll of Americans some years ago that indicated 80% thought the Persian Gulf was a major source of concern for the USA. But only 20% knew where it was.

It is all over the world but the gals i have made love admit they love sex but are afrais of society.... comment please in proper positve manner... thanks

Women are afraid that if they admit that they like sex they will be viewed as a tramp. If a man has a healthy sexual appetite, he is considered normal. This is just the way the world is, for better or worse. Probably another million years of evolution will remedy this.

myself and my wife share a very good relationship and share all our feelings.She has got a friend who is a guy and not married and her boss.Over a period of time the guy said he is in love with my wife.My wife said she is a good friend only and asked him to accept her as good friend only.Now that he is saying he cannot think her as friend.So,she stopped talking to him and explained him the situation.He said he dosent want to break our family and said he will not disturb her and move out of her.My wife was happy.But,the next day he came back to her and said he cannot live without her.......and its hard for him to withdraw.\n\nplease advise how this situation can be handled because my wife loves her job so she dosent wanna quit,she want the guy as her best friend only.

Obviously the guy doesn't just want to be friends. Your wife may have to let go of the friendship part of it. The reality is a situation like this could be considered sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is against the law. As, a supervisor, he needs to be careful about pursuing an employee. He's made an advance and your wife told him no. After she told him No, he's made advances again, that's where the harassment comes in. Does the guy have a superior? if he does, your wife should make a complaint with them. If the harassment continues after she makes a complaint, then she might want to make a call  to your local labor board and they can direct her on how to proceed.


Last night I was pulled over and had 3 cases of beer (im underage) 7 grams of pot and paraphenalia.  (NO, I AM NOT A DEADBEAT, it was for my graduation party)  I'm going to get a good lawyer, what do you all think?

you may get a lesser sentence if it's a first offense, but i have to say if you were my kid i wouldn't pay for your lawyer.  good luck.

I think I have fibroids because I am 45 yrs old and I have alot of pain I am going to the doctor but what will they do to help me get rid of them?

Fibroids are knots of overgrown muscle tissue of the uterus. They can cause pain and irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding. If the problem is bad enough, the treatment is surgery-hysterectomy


I had to have a tooth extracted yesterday because I was stupid and ignored the pain until it became so severely decayed it couldn't be saved.....let that be a lesson to anyone reading this!!!\n\nAnyway, the dentist said I should consider having the tooth replaced with either an implant or a bridge. Firstly, is this totally necessary? The tooth removed was a molar so it's not very visible. Next, can someone explain to me the difference between and implant and a bridge? Which is best?

It is not absolutely necessary that you replace the tooth, but it will be better in the long run.  Missing a tooth can cause the other teeth to shift, but not just the ones next to it, but also the ones opposing it (the tooth it would bite against can move up/down to fill in the space).  If it was me, and I had the money, I would have it replaced. \n\nImplants are very costly, however, they are the closest thing to a natural tooth.  You would have to be under general anesthesia and they would cut open your gums, place a titanium post into the bone, then cover the post up with the gums.  3-6 months later the dentist/oral surgeon would open back up the gums and attach an abutment to the post.  This abutment sticks out into the oral cavity and is covered by a crown.  Implants are very expensive and it takes a while to have them placed, however, they are worth it.  As long as you are a non-smoker and take care of it (brushing and flossing), it will last.  As far as bridges go, they are less expensive than an implant, but may not last as long.  For a bridge, you need teeth next to the space where the tooth is missing.  And it looks like three or more crowns connected to each other.  Nothing is actually implanted in your gums.  So it is important to floss under the bridge.  Here are some links to help explain some more, in case I didn't do a good  job.  But listen to your dentist.  He knows the condition of your mouth and what will be best for you.  And it never hurts to get a second opinion.\nThe Colgate websites have pictures at the bottom.


i need thing to do so that i dont have to worry about them

WELL YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH LONGER SWEETIE, DO YOU HAVE ANY FRIENDS AROUND YOU ? IF SO, GET TOGEHTER WITH THEM GO OUT TO MOVIE OR SOMETHING. TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME. THEY WILL BE FINE!


energy.  My idea is not to pierce the earth (prior answers to "Who is John Gault" took this out of proportion). To find a  mechanism that could spin this shaft and in-turn spin a generator (supplying electricity much like a belt connected to the Crank shaft of a car turns the generator of a car) is possible and I say this based on the fact that the Earth is turning without the use of fossil fuels.  The Earth in the prior example is a revolving mechanism (RM)- a RM connected to a generator supplies electricity-if an engine were built that could turn a shaft through magnetism then a SOURCE for free electricity could be had and considerably cut our dependency upon oil-the product that is depleting our worlds resources and has kept U.S. at war.  I hinted at a possible engine made of titanium (to offer no magnetic resistance) supporting Magnetically charged pistons (coil wrapped) that would create an engine that runs the push and pull of pistons with respect to pole(+) position in the block

All engines have a cost.  I suggest that the cost of this form of energy may be the slowing of the rotational period of the Earth.  What would we pay in time

does doing a standard writing exam really measure how much you know or would another method work better for some people, please list various alternate testing methods and who it would work for. also if you've seen results first or secondhand please tell what was observed .  researching for a persuassive speech on the " No, written exams don't measure everyone's knowledge the same as some people might be able to show their knowledge some other way."

There is no true measure of knowledge.  Writing to show knowledge is one form and actually doing to show knowledge is another.  I have known people that can do well on about any paper test and not feel confident to do the tasks and just the opposite.  There is no real, true measure.


A question about how to lose weight was asked and for a joke I replied, lose 20lbs by cutting your ugly head off.\n\nYahoo deleted my answer and emailed me saying it incited hatred and violence. \n\nAre they really serious? Did my obvious joke really "incite" hatred and violence or this just some politically correct bull being dished out by Yahoo?

In order for Yahoo to be PC (Polically Correct), they can't offend people.... including UGLY people. When an ungly fucker reads the answer they get upset because they have no life. Instead of either getting off their butts and doing something about their looks or just killing themselves, they want to quell the ability of their fellow person to express themselves. They feel the world should embrace their laziness and admire them for their crappy choices of hygiene and fashion.\n\n*Warning: This answer will self-destruct (be deleted) in days.


I just asked my crush out and he said he wasn't ready for a realationship. Three days later my best friend asked him out and now thy're dating. Should I be mad at my crush or my best friend. plz help me

I have two very close friends. Both of them have almost the same character, stubborn. They have argued about one thing which results in a quarreling, now they don't talk each other. Both of them complain each other. \n\nI have planned to treat them to a restaurant, with hope that relationship will be good again. Do you think that is a good thing to do?\n\nAll I want is only peace.

That is a very sticky situation. It may work out if you do that.  But it also may end up with them both mad at you for interfering.  I would just be there for both of them and talk it out.  Hopefully with you there listening, they'll work it out on their own.


what is so logical about god letting his son get killed? why not let him live, and encourage him to travel the whole world, spreading his teachings to those who would otherwise not hear 'em for hundreds of years? he obviously was good at getting people to listen to him, and i'm sure people back then were way more stubborn and hotheaded than today. so why not let him keep working? send him all over, help him get across oceans, maybe bring some disciples along with him. wouldn't that be more helpful? and if he HAS to die like that, wouldn't it be even more powerful of a statement if he already had followers everywhere? also, people from other, distant lands would be more willing to believe in his miricles if they had actually SEEN some of them, and not just been told about them hundreds of years later. if jesus had visited the americas somehow, those people would have told stories passed down through generations. (i'm aware that america was unknown to them, but surely not to god?)

jesus deserved to di3!! if i was around back then i woulda f*ckin killed him myself the dirty jewish b*stard. and i would laughed and pointed while he was hangin there on the cross and i would threw stones and p00p at him and whipped him until he finally d!ed.


I have been hearing so many cities and country being the most ethnically and culurally diverse. Such as Toronto, London, etc. \n\nI want to know what city you been to that you thought was the most diverse.

New York City, New York.\n\nThe cultural Melting Pot of the World and unofficial Capital of the Free World.  Home of the United Nations.  That alone tells you that there is people from every registered nation on the planet, there.\n\nJust taking into consideration of all the restrictions most european countries have on immigration.  Your best bet would be New York and Toronto, Ontario.  Those two cities are actually relatively close and can see both in a day.  Only about an hour and a half flight between the two.


This is not a joke. Tonight we hosted a party honoring my sister and as luck would have it my brother-in-law and his girlfriend decided to show up. While the other guests were arriving those two decided to start picking at the food trays and messing with something on the table. As the girlfriend bent over the table her hair became caught in the sandwiches on a tray and her clothes rubbed over them as well. I asked her to please pull back her hair and not bend over all the trays and instead to please just walk around. She took offense and made quite a few nasty comments. How would you have handled the uninvited guest, her hairy situation, and nasty comments? My inital reaction was to gag with disgust and disbelief at the lack of manners. But then I was acosted with her bad attitude and nastiness. Worse yet I have to interact with her again for Mother's Day. Please let me know how you would handle being around a person of this calliber. No abusive comments please.

Great answers! Love the video humor thing. Showing is always better than telling. You did well in your response. Congrats. My suggestion is hold your head high, be proud of who you are. Be as kind as you are able. Rash responses and aggression are usually regretted and always remembered. You can really kill with kindness so have a Happy Mothers day and have fun.


On my email home page I like to be able to switch between my two email accounts when checking my mail.

I tried to send an Outlook Express email with a large attachment.  Everytime I open the program, it tries to send the message, but after 10 mins, it says it failed and will try again.  I can't find a way to delete the message, and now I can't send any messages because this is preventing others from getting out.

Go into the Outbox folder and delete it there (if it still shows up there). Then, reboot your computer. That should fix the problem.


I have had a few styes in the past but they were mild, small, and cleared themselves up without any help.  I have a really bad one now that I'd rather not have to make a Dr. visit for.  Does anyone know a natural remedy for a stye?  How about what causes them?  Is there any preventative method that's commonly used?

Self-Care at Home\nMost styes go away on their own in 5-7 days. \n\nApply warm compresses 4-6 times a day for about 15 minutes at a time to help the drainage. Keep your eyes closed. \n\n\nGently scrub the eyelid with tap water or with a mild, nonirritating soap or shampoo (such as baby shampoo). This may help with drainage. Close your eyes as you scrub so you do not injure your eyes. \n\n\nDo not squeeze or puncture the sty. A more serious infection may occur as a result. \n\n\nDiscontinue the use of eye makeup as well as eye lotions and creams because they may be infected. \n\n\nDiscontinue wearing your contact lenses because the sty may cause an infection to spread to your cornea with the continued use of your contact lenses.


If the dollar bill is yours, is it a crime to rip it into little pieces?

There's no such thing as "your money".  I know this sounds... strange, but it belongs to the federal government.  Just like your license plate, mail box, and anything else CONNECTED or RELATED to the government.  So if you kick you license plate and bend it, it's illegal.  If you knock over a mailbox - it's illegal.  If you shread a dollar bill, it's illegal, but not like anyone's going to arrest you :P

I work for a small business and it is going out of business do I get to file unemployment till I find another job?

it should be no problem because you are being separated through no fault of you own. that's the first part. the second part is did you work long enough. in NJ, we look at the last 18 months or so to determine if you worked enough weeks or earned enough wages. this is with all employers during this time period, not just your last one. each employer will be charged a percentage of your claim. it is a free process, so file on your last day of work or the day after, even if you are unsure if you qualify. if you wait, you wont receive benefits for that time period because you claim does not start until the week in which you first report to file a claim. laws vary from state to state so check your state's dept of labor website or go to your local unemployment office.


I already know, grammatically speaking, what swear words are, I just feel like laughing at other people's ignorance.

It seems like if you say anything that some people don't agree with on here,you can get reported. so where as I'd normally say a swear word is something you wouldn't say in front of your nan, on here I'd say it could be absolutely anything!!


and target card so they are now down below the credit limit. I have disputed some items as well.  Will this make any differecne on his report.  Things will now be on time since now we only have the mort that is now current and those other accounts at a lower balance.

Good job on making the changes you need to!  It's always refreshing to see people taking responsibility for their problems rather than just heading to bankruptcy court.\n\nIt may be a long shot, but you can call the credit card companies and talk to them about the credit report.  You might also consider talking to either a financial advisor (who would charge a fee but would probably give you very good advice) or a NON-PROFIT credit counseling agency.  If you choose the latter, make sure that you check with the Better Business Bureau or otherwise check them out THOROUGHLY - there are some scam artists out there.  \n\nI *believe* there are ways to "fix" your husband's credit report, but I'm not up on the specifics of how it happens.\n\nBest of luck!


My husband and I were renting to own a house. It took alot of our money to  do this.  We decided it would be cheaper to move to where we grew up to live smaller towns. Our loan got extremely messed up and we ended up having to stay with my parents. My parents are going to let  us rent a house from them.  But we not only have to pay them a large amount for rent, but also are expected to work at their store as well as carry full tiem jobs.  Is it wrong to not choose their house to live in.  HOw should I deal with telling my parents they are being controlling when all i ever wanted to do was move their grand children closer to them so they could enjoy them and they now act like they wish the kids would go home.  Maybe I am just really stressed out and angry but at what point do you get even for what you have done for someone?

If I were renting from a stranger, and they said I could only rent under those conditions as you described, I would walk away from the deal. Here you are family, and aren't even getting as good a treatment as a stranger would. Get out from under their thumb. They want to see the grand kids, then they will have to travel to see them, nothing wrong with that. Find another place for rent, and move there, otherwise you will never grow-up. You won't have the privacy a stranger would get renting. They will have access with a key to waltz in there any time they wish and unannounced. You will constantly have to explain yourself or feel like you do to them all the time because its their place you would be renting. Don't do this! Tell them, thanks for the kind offer (*cough*), but you prefer to find your own place to rent.


I am trying to overcome my fear of them but on the other hand want to be nowhere near them.  Give me some nice and icky facts about them.

I have caught my son (13) abusing himself (yes, m*****bating) on several occassions. Yesterday I found out he had stolen all my Lane Bryant catalogs and was using them for this deviant behavior.  So I called the police and told them my son was committing statutory rape -- of himself.  THEY HUNG UP ON ME!  I called again and asked to speak to a supervisor -- he told me to stop calling!  So, I want to bring a whistleblower suit against the police for conspiracy to commit statutory rape.  Any advice -- especially how much to demand -- appreciated.


I would like to configure outlook express with my yahoo mail account but I miss a lot of informations(like server name.....and many more) to do this.The best would be to give the information for each step.Thanks a lot

They rarely cite anything they say and they are OFTEN very rude... \n\nThey obviously aren't trying to form an actual argument with what they are saying, since the majoirty of what they do is spread rhetoric and call others names, so what are they trying to do?

At the end of the season, Little Billy's baseball team has a record of 7 wins and 5 losses. Little Billy's best buddy Bobby's team has a record of 8 wins and 4 losses. The worst team in the league has twice as many losses as wins. If there are only 4 teams in the league, and no games are played with any other teams but league teams, in what position did Little Billy's team finish?

Answer: 2nd place\n\nEach team plays 12 games, which means that each pair of teams plays each other four times.  Since there are six possible pairings among the four teams, that means that 24 games were played altogether.  Which means that (assuming there are no ties) the four teams have a total of 24 wins and 24 losses between them.  \n\nNow the worst team has twice as many losses as wins.  Since we know that they played 12 games, we can calculate that they have 8 losses and 4 wins.  If we add up the wins from all the teams, they should equal 24.\nWins: (Billy)7+(Bobby)8+(loser team)4=19 wins\n5+19=24\nSo the unknown fourth team has 5 wins and is in 3rd place.  Therefore, Billy's team is in 2nd place.


i like this boy in my class and we are good freinds. i want to get to know him better but i dont know how to talk to him with him going away(he is REALY shy). is there any way that i can talk to him with out him freaken out about it??

If he is that shy, then probably not! But maybe you can find something he is good at, and ask him about it, so it will build his confidence...maybe there s something he could help you with, ... some homework, or whatever... Be creative! But don t forget to be patient with a shy guy, don t rush things too much!


What exactly happens when I lose my voice?

What is a voice? Connected to muscles there are two tiny tendons. The muscles can make them move, and when air gets blowns through, you get a 'noise': your voice. (It's like whistling on a grass). In order to work right, your voice links need to be abe to open and CLOSE properly. Now, when the muscles around get swollen, or when anything else happens that prevents your voice links to close, you loose your voice!


I've recently been getting a lot of dry, broken, dead skin around my eyes, especially on my eyelids.\nI use moisturiser in the morning, that is when they are particularly bad.\nI don't think I've changed my diet at all.\n\nHas anyone else had this or do you know why this happens and how I can treat it?\n\nthanks!

try cocoa butter cream at night-it's a little greasy feeling-but it is definitely one of the best that i have tried- have you changed your face cleaning regimen?  are do you tan in a tanning bed?  even though you have to wear the funny goggles don't think that the sensitive skin around your eyes aren't exposed.  if using a different cleanser, it may be to harsh.  you can also try the Avon Anew eye moisturizer and line diminish, it comes in a tube and I love it!  I always have an extra on hand


Me and my b/f have been together for 1 year and a half and for the last 6 months we havent really been having sex. I used to be very horny all the time, but he used to be too tired to have sex (He worked a lot) So I stopped asking him. . now I find that when we do have sex (which is prolly once a month) I find that it feels like my first time everytime, im so tight.(And it hurts a lot) Im 19 and he's 31, do you think it could be becuz he's so much older and isnt as horny as I am? (Im still as horny as ever, i just dont show it to him - and NO i havent cheated and im not planning on it)\nWhat can i do to make him want to have more sex? So it doesnt hurt me so much?

I agree with Clover ... I think you're full of shyt


I played high school baseball and one summer I pitched in a game and I think I damaged my shoulder/rotator cuff because ever since then I have had this nagging injury which is off and on. There are times when my arm feels strong and I can throw without any pain but more times than not I feel so much pain after throwing the ball that I can't even lift my arm. I am trying to find out if lifting weights or some other alternative will get my arm back into the shape it needs to be in. Hopefully surgery will not have to be an option.

I think that you're only real option right now is to go see a doctor. They're trained and you may be scared of surgery but it's either going to the doctor and hearing what they have to say or having to live with that pain untill you get up the guts to go to the doctors. No matter what you're going to see a doctor about it sooner or later so get it over with and put the injury behind you.


No, you won't get wet but it'll be a darn nippy bath...brrrr cold and you'll risk suffocation from the carbon dioxide.


If i go back to school for criminal justice what all will i be able to do with this degree? I don't want to be a cop so i want to know what my other options is.

Most states have a juvenile justice program, and more than likely it is always in need of help.  Prisons and jails are typically understaffed as well as Probation and Parole offices.  You could apply at the federal level for the FBI, DEA, CIA, or ATF.  With the right classes, you could become an evidence technician and process crime scenes.


Can it be done? The DVD player on my computer went out and the images are so much better on my monitor than my television would rather see it there. The monitor is a 21 inch.

Yes it can ge done.  Try the other answers first because they are more simple but do not give up if that fails.  Buy a VGA box, it converts a variety of connections that would come out of your DVD player (componant,composite,s-video) and changes it into an analog VGA signal that can be read by a computer screen.  I have on for my Xbox that works very well.  I bought mine off Ebay for about 40 bucks.  you should look at newegg.com and tigerdirect.com as well.

The age of the donor doesn't appear to be relevant. However, whether they were alive or dead at the time is an important factor.\n\nThe average life expectancy of a kidney from a deceased donor is 10 years or so. The average life expectancy of a kidney from a living donor is longer, about 18 years. One of the greatest challenges in transplantation today is to improve long-term outcome.\n\nOther than that, the one-year survival rate these days is over 90%, sometimes a lot higher.

What the hell is that, I have a permanent retainer there but i dont think is that , i think. And YES I do brush...every morning.

Umm... that sounds really bad.  The only time I've ever heard of brown fuzz is typhoid.  Which is unusual, and I hope you don't have it.\n\nWhen you're not wearing your retainer, soak it in hydrogen peroxide.  At least once a week clean it for a long time.  Some retainers can be boiled, some are too weak.  But clean it in something that super kills germs very regularly.  It sounds like you're not brushing Enough (2-4x a day), and like.. you're not taking good care of the retainer.\n\nBut just in case you are, talk to your doctor and your dentist about it.  They'll probably want to do a urinalysis on you and see if you've got any infections.


I want to know if regular paintball hurts more than the little airsoft paintball/bb gun paintballs do

No, it's about the same. I play paintball it only really hurts if your bunkered (which means the person wraps around your bunker and shoots you at close range) or if you get hit if the same spot twice.\n\nOh yeah it does also hurts to be shot in the groin. It stings for the rest of the day.

I have known this guy for about 15 years and he was recently in prison for committing some nonviolent crimes.  He is a really nice guy and wants to date me.  I am afraid that if I do let this guy in that I will end up heartbroken in the future.  What if he gets in trouble again? I've asked him about this and he vows that is a place he never wants to be again.  He wants the same things out of life as I do and I think we would be great together.  I just can't get past thinking what if he gets into trouble again and goes back to prioson and being afraid of getting hurt.  Do I give him a chance???

I was in this exact same position a few months ago. \n\nI hadnt known him that long, however. \nI was thinking the same thing when I first got with him. \nWell, now it is definitely worth it to me. I am engaged. \n\nHeres my advice. \nIf you honestly feel that he is going to change (I dont know what his crimes were.) than I woudl say give him the chance. My fiances crimes were violent and drug related and I still gave him that chance (completely unaware of what could have happened.)\nMy best advice is if you do give it a shot (which I hope you will because evryone deserves that second chance.) \nBE PREPARED! \nThere may be a few slip-ups. (for example: if his crimes were drug related, expect maybe drinking or maybe pot somking.)\nBe patient and set yourself a limit and stick to it. \nDont ever let his betraying behavior get in the way and make rules before you start into a relationship. \n(no drinking, smoking, doing drugs...whatever.) \nThis way you have the law laid down and you and he both know where the relationship will end. \n\nIf its important to you, it should be important to him as well. \n\n\nGOOD LUCK SWEETIE!


If eyelashes are meant to protect your eyes from dust and stuff, are lips doin the same for the mouth? I mean, do we really need them, i cant see their function(other that kissing etc).

Lips are VERY sensitive and intricate in their mucsle movements and have a very high number of touch, hot, cold receptors in them, more so than most other parts of the body.  In fact, the amount of surface area of the brain (both pre and post frontal sulcus: see homonculus) which is allocated to the lips is very high. It is very much needed and helpful while eating too, to detect the temp and texture of the food before eating. We also are picking up seemingly very subtle ques from the lips in both NON-VERBAL communication as well as verbal communication! Lip reading is obviously very important in communication for those who are deaf. \n\nSpeech musculature is very intricate too.  If you ever hurt your lips, you know how much it is used to shape the words.  Don't forget blowing bubbles and whistling too, and last but not least playing musical instruments like trumpet, trombone,sax.\n\nBut lots of animals have lips too.....but normally not quite as fleshy as ours in the human species.
