I find examples of this often, with my children doing their homework or preparing for test, with my parents with items that they really didn't mean to overlook or forget, and especcially with friends that are in college trying to grasp and retain profound materials. (It seems as though if it doesn't leave a lasting impression on their being, they are easy to forget details, and nearly impossible to memorize the material or information.)\n\nIf you find truth in this what is a good way to trick yourself into thinking something is important information you need to retain, when it seems like a boring detail to you otherwise?

its funny, I have been called by my wife and others an encyclopedia of useless information (until of course she needs to know it) ...I wonder how much of that I would truly consider important and how much just sticks up there for some other reason...I would imagine even if it seems trivial to others it must have some import to the person who remembers it or why would they bother ....\n\nDang you for making me think this early in the morning!!!!\n\nedited to answer additional info: I write this information down. Repeatedly if necessary. I find that writing something down puts it in my memory. Can't explain why but it just does...


why dose everyone thinks it gross to like girls when u r one? i hate it cause evertime i ask something about likeing the same sex someone has to say something mean and i dont like that. so y do they do that?

They just don't understand your feelings and maybe they are afraid of it a little.  It could be a touch of jealousy as well.  Also, they might be trying to mask any feelings that they might have had in their lives.


I have twin sister n laws,Ill name Jeckell & Hyde.I only speak w/one of them, Jekell.I once got along w/both of them until I married their brother.Both were in my wedding & involved w/the planning.I dont have sisters so we would talk how awesome it was going to be when we became sister n laws. After the wedding, my mom tells me that "hyde" called her at work & demanded a "family meeting." She met my mom & (long story short) threw me under the bus. Exp: I married her brother so I could steel the wedding $$ divorce him & kick him out? Oh ya, "Im not all that & a bag of chips! We were just hugging & crying at my wedding? What the f..k? Ive seen her once.Im civil only so familys can stay together.Its B-Day time & I dont want to buy "Hyde" a gift. Can I only buy a gift for "Jeckell" Note-we'll be w/the family when this happens.Do I get 2 gifts but only 1 card. No! Im not giving Hyde a card unless it says"you f..kng suck"! Seriously How do I pull it off,be on top w/family,& still f..k her?

Grow up!  She's family, and if you have a problem with her, you need to talk to her directly!  Who cares if she is a twin or not??  You need to deal with this issue as soon as you can!  And the right way to deal with it is not to not buy her a present, to show your displeasure with her!


As a Australian l would like to know the public opinion of your X Military leaders asking for the resignation of Donald Rumsfeld.\nl fail to understand why someone who has served a high post in the Military command is listened too one day and not  Generals who have served on the ground in Iraq are asking for requesting resignation of your Defence Military leaders.\nIs there Experience to be ingored???

these detestable people don't resign. They are shown the door.


An ex boyfriend is still texting me and when I told him i was in his local bar at the weekend he text back and said "with who may i ask and ill see did my spys see you" what does this mean???!!!!!

Why are you messaging your ex boyfriend? I think you are creating drama for yourself. So wallow in it, you deserve it.


I wanna b able to go out n have fun. BUt at da same time i wanna come come 2 da arms of a man.

You want a boyfriend, but are apprehensive about the change in your life!\n\nRemember, the most constant thing in life is change. \n\ndont look for a boyfriend, but if you come across a nice guy, dont stop yourself.

yes football is the most popular sport in d planet, becacuse its exhilarating to watch. firstly and clearly most significant, is the development of the world cup from an invitational tournament among a few elite soccer nations to a global television circus which commands greater attention than any other world sporting event. parallel to the world cup, has been the explosive growth of the highest-level club game. the european champions league not only commands attention on every continent, its dominant clubs have become dependent upon global talent. is a sport that is loved and played all over the world. bigs clubs in europe continue to play in different countries, like asia, and north america trying to break into the market and make it a even more popular sport.


I am going to be living probably in NY and will be looking for some part-time employees. What are the best ways to advertise? Hire somebody to drop ads all over the place for me (laundromats, grocery stores, etc.)? Do it myself?\nIs advertising in papers worth it? Do people call?\n\nAny suggestions would be very helpful. Online ads don't work too well. Thanks

Newspapers work, also try small local neighborhood or are newspapers. We have several Internet employment sites , www.jobdango.com is one. I can't remember the other ones. Also the employment office in the are of New York you will be working in.


Tell me any you tried, did they work?  How much?  Would you risk your freedom on it?

No, it doesn't work. The best way to get pot out of your urine, is to stop smoking pot! And I'd say the real question is: would YOU risk YOUR freedom on it?


like the information have stuff like why it is used ....


Ive been studying business but i need a job business related so i can get the feeling of it.

Work for Microsoft. Apparently they'll not only let absolutely anybody work there regardless of skill level or experience but they'll even give you a wack at writing some faulty code. Microsoft is cool that way.


does the singapore math technique have anything to do with the country of singapore

"The newest math option for classical home schoolers is Singapore Math, a curriculum originally used in Singapore, where math students score more highly than students from other countries in internationally administered tests." \n\nand YES i think it does come from the country Singapore.


when you look at the real image of an object made by a convex lens, you see two images of the object?

It has nothing to do with the two halves of the lens anyway. The way I can explain it is spherical abberation, i.e due to the difference in the foci for the edge of the lens and the middle of the lens. But that would form a blurred image and not two images.


How can I really have enjoyable sex with a new partner for the first time?... What do guys look for when they sleep with someone new for the first time? Any tips or tricks?

just relax and do what comes natural. no pun intended. dont worry about how you sound or what you look like. have you ever seen a guys face when he gets off.


I told my boyfriend that i thought he liked another girl and wanted to know if it was true or not and he got mad and told me that i couldn't trust him and if i couldnt' trust him then we didn't need to be in a relationship together ne more. They have been sending messages back and forth but he doesnt' like me reading them and he has asked her a question but i dont know what it is and her reply was I'm scared to tell you because you might get mad at me and some other people might get mad at me too.

Because he isn;t trust worthy.  Say this to him "_______ you told me if i couldn't trust you then we need to break up.  Well i can;t trust you because of the way you're acting and if you're not willing to help me to trust you by not acting that way then guess what, goodbye"  dump him before he cheats and really breaks ur heart.


I really feel like an affair. Don't get me wrong- I love my husband dearly, we get along great. But the bedroom scene is very rare. (usually a few times a month, to be honest.) I feel unnatractive and very depressed, at times. Sometimes I feel so lonely I find myself crying uncontrollably. I have told him about this a few times, things always got a little better, then back to nothing, again. I even mentioned an affair. I mentioned swinging. I mentioned counciling. It still goes on, and I'm still here. I accually chatted with a guy from Answers, but he lives so far away. It seems that all I am is a celebate housewife. I'm 35 years old, and feel like I am in my prime, ya know? Delimma: We can't afford counciling. I don't want to divorce him over something this minor. (He would be left alone) I don't know anyone here in Indiana to have an affair with, although I really feel like I want to. Help? Only serious answers, Please?

"I don't want to divorce him over something this minor. (He would be left alone)"\n\nThis doesn't sound minor to me.  I'm 34 and going thru a divorce right now for similar reasons.  My wife and I have been married for 5 years, and I've never loved another person so strongly and intimately; but I've discovered that I'm not sexually attracted to her.  I tried to tell myself that it was a simple problem, and that it wasn't worth ending the marriage; but over time (and through therapy) I've learned that I was manipulating myself, and her, trying to keep the working parts of our marriage in tact at all cost – and damaging our relationship along the way.\n\nMy opinion: you are not responsible for his feelings, and you are not a bad person if you "leave him alone".  He's an adult, and can only benefit from facing this situation honestly.  How rewarding is this marriage going to be for him (or you) if your relationship isn't completely honest?  \n\nCHEAP ALTERNATIVE TO THERAPY\nTry 12 step meetings.  Not AA, but AlAnon, or better yet, CODA if it's available in your area (Codependents Anonymous).  You'll find yourself in a room full of people who are facing similar problems head-on, supporting one another without any bullsh*t.\n\nHope this isn't too preachy.\n\n:^|


I recently read about suggestions for baa baa black sheep, saying we should use words like rainbow?  has this world gone mad or what

Baa baa rainbow sheep!?!\n\nHow odd, but yes it is a bit over-the-top, people like to create drama.

i'am looking for fans of the tv show McLeod's daughters

I AM A BIG FAN OF MCLEOD'S DAUGHTERS ON THE WE Channel. Our cable went off on the 25th and I cannot find out any information on the two shows I missed.  I could not believe that Calire died on the show this past week.  I kept thinking Tess was dreaming.  Becky left the week before - what is going on - If you fill in the blanks I would be grateful - who knows when they will air the shows again - Thanks. Loyal Fan


It's a fact that our world today is rules by numbers and Mathematical conventions.  Everything around us has a number and a place in space.  If that's so, are we doomed?

Someone has described our times as "the reign of quantity", and that's true... it's up to us to bring back a quality, not being conditioned by the tendencies of a degeneration (in fact I'm sure that also mathematics as we study it today is quite a degeneration compared with the times when it was one of the sciences of the "quadrivium")


I have a task from my lecturer to find out what the "INFORMATION RETRIEVAL" is.

Information retrieval (IR) is the art and science of searching for information in documents, searching for documents themselves, searching for metadata which describe documents, or searching within databases, whether relational stand-alone databases or hypertext networked databases such as the Internet or intranets, for text, sound, images or data. There is a common confusion, however, between data retrieval, document retrieval, information retrieval, and text retrieval, and each of these have their own bodies of literature, theory, praxis and technologies.\n\nThe term "information retrieval" was coined by Calvin Mooers in 1948-50.\n\nIR is a broad interdisciplinary field, that draws on many other disciplines. Indeed, because it is so broad, it is normally poorly understood, being approached typically from only one perspective or another. It stands at the junction of many established fields, and draws upon cognitive psychology, information architecture, information design, human information behaviour, linguistics, semiotics, information science, computer science and librarianship.\n\nAutomated information retrieval (IR) systems were originally used to manage information explosion in scientific literature in the last few decades. Many universities and public libraries use IR systems to provide access to books, journals, and other documents. IR systems are often related to object and query. Queries are formal statements of information needs that are put to an IR system by the user. An object is an entity which keeps or stores information in a database. User queries are matched to documents stored in a database. A document is, therefore, a data object. Often the documents themselves are not kept or stored directly in the IR system, but are instead represented in the system by document surrogates.\n\nIn 1992 the US Department of Defense, along with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), cosponsored the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) as part of the TIPSTER text program. The aim of this was to look into the information retrieval community by supplying the infrastructure that was needed for such a huge evaluation of text retrieval methodologies.\n\nWeb search engines such as Google and Lycos are amongst the most visible applications of information retrieval research.


what are your favorite sports? do you excersise? how many times a week?

My favorite sport is definitely soccer (football)!\nUnfortunately I don't play soccer since I had knee problems but I row and I swin a lot.  Rowing 4 days a week during summer (in Canada) and swimming from 1 to 5 times a week (more during the winter).\n\nI wish I knew why I'm so addicted to footie...  Anyway it's the best sport in the world!


i need to work on my pecks. will pull ups help? what else cani do?

Pullups really work your biceps. The pecs do adduction, which is bringing your arm closer to your body, and internal rotation of the shoulder.. Cable pull machines are what you want to get on. Anything where you have you arm out at 90 degrees from your side, and pull down towards your leg.


Ok, Here is the deal my son got in to a fight a couple of days ago at school during the fight he opened handed slapped this person..  They sent the person to the nurse the nurse said that there was dry blood in the ear so they called the persons mother & the mother took the person to the DR so far from what I have heard is that there is a rip on the persons ear drum..  The question is.....   Is it possible that from my son slapping this person it could rip the ear drum..  I do not think that is posible.. So that is why I am putting this out on the table..  So if any of you all have any insight to this question please help...   By the way my son got suspended & I beat his ass & I am also working his ass off for getting in trouble...

yes..found out first hand when I was slapped on the side of the face/ear. I have had hearing loss in my ear since it occurred which was back in 1991.\n\nSorry to be the bearer of bad news but if your son threw the first punch you will probably be responsible for the medical bills if the kid does not have insurance.

A businessman on a business trip waits for his flight at an airport in London to fly back to the States. He goes to the bathroom when "nature calls"\nAs he sits on the toilet, a man in the next stall says,\n"Hey, how are you?"\nAt first, the businessman thinks how inappropiate this is, but decides to answer.\n"Fine, thank you"\nThen the man in the next stall says,\n"So, what are you doing?"\nThe businessman still thinks all this is very inappropiate, but he doesn't know the customs here and doesn't want to be rude so he says.\n"I'm waiting for my flight to go back to the U.S."\nThen the man says,\n"So, when are you coming over?"\nNow the businessman thinks the man has crossed the line and firmly says,\n"Listen, I don't know who you are or what you are trying to do here but I'm not what you think I am!"\nThe man in the next stall says,\n"Honey, let me call you back. There's an a$$hole in the next stall that's answering all my questions"

This may sound strange to some, but I got it from an old almanac, in the zodiac section, that I use to plant my garden.\n\nIt was taught, by Aristotle, that a diviine spark comes from the eye of the sighted, to the object viewed, and then is attracted to the Sun God, making it shine in heaven.  But what good, some asked, is the sun, when it's already daylight? (They had studied their ancient sciptures, and knew that the daylight preceded the sun) Others argued, that the Moon God was more benevolent, shedding light at night, when the world is dark. Still others argued, that neither the Sun God, nor the Moon God, were to be taken literally, but should be understood as an allegory. \nAristotles student, put the skeptics to the sword.\n\nThese arguments sound a lot like the arguements I hear between fundamentalists, orthodox christians, and agnostics. I'm a Christian, but I believe his wisdom was older than the hills he walked.

I like the part about allegory. I think the ancient ones\nwho wrote the Bible would shake their heads in disbelief\nat the Christian fundamentalists who persist in a literal\ninterpretation of the Bible when the figurative meaning\nis the all important thing. I fear the fundamentalists with\ntheir politically selfish leaders would put the rest of\nus scientifically enlightened ones to the sword if they\nhad the chance.


i just bought carmen electra's stripperobics and i was thinking of taking a class on belly dancing... i am a plus size girl... do you think this will turn more guys on??\n\nhelp ... single and i need some hehehe:)

Historically speaking yes very much so, bellydance if done correclty transends body size and allows a womans true sensuality to seep out and be put out there


Please read the entire question before you answer, if you don't like the question, or are not going to give a real answer, such as complain why the death penalty is wrong, then please do NOT answer. \n\nMy perectption on our judical system, is somewhat flawed, in my mind the system is too weak, the reason why I think so, is that we spend a lot of money putting people in prision, and many of them continue to go back prision after they get realesed, for various reasons. Personally I thought it would be much better for every felony conviction to result in the death penalty with only 1 year for appeals, the reason being, is that it actually does take huge chuck of money from the taxpayers, as well as the prisions seem to be getting full, as well as it would cut down on crime alot (seriously how many people would start meth labs if they knew they would be killed for it?). Keep in mind I said only felonies, which are stuff such as rape, murder, ect, but not limited to those.

ok heres my answer.  and i would also request that you actually read the whole thing before moving on to the next.  first of all i think you are an insensitive prick.  you think we should just kill every person that doesnt meet your high standards.  that is inhumane, actually that is insane.  especially for any felony.  did you know that you can recieve a  felony for speeding?  so you should be executed for being in a big ass hurry to get to work.  peeps make mistakes.  sounds like you did too.  x is fun but illeagal and dangerous.  what if you got pulled over before popping and the cops found it?  that is a felony.  bang your dead.  i have a felony and i take offense to your statement.  i realize i made a mistake and i took immediate actions to correct my mistakes from reoccuring in the future.  i got busted with an oz and a half of mexican dirt weed.  class four felony.  i was also into meth and x and acid and shrooms and pretty much all the drugs i could ingest.  i saw my life going down hill and the cops helped me realize it.  so i went to treatment and havent touched the stuff in two years.  I WAS GIVEN A CHANCE TO REHABILLATATE AND LEARNED MY LESSON.  the correctional and judicial systems purpose is to help people in general, wheather they are criminals or honest citizens.  they help a lot of people by giving them another chance but watching them closely.  i understand where you are comming from however.  i have friends in prison who have commited offenses time after time and dont learn.  but do i want them dead? no.  they deserve the same as you and i.  i do believe that certain offenses do deserve death.  killers have no remorse, otherwise they wouldnt have commited the act.


The sum of human experience is finite and share many commonalities. So it is possible to say things in such general terms and yet with some level specific hints that it can pass off as a fortune reading. With people wanting so much to believe in something and hoping for something, that it is easy for opportunists to exploit it.


The reason for this question is to gather information about\ngeneral relativity based on time,vision and new detailed ideas as it relates to the here and now.

in my opinon this movie gives us a glimpse into the future and the harsh realities mankind will have to face along with all the pleasures of instant  self gratifcation.


In my science class my teacher brought up the possibility of, In the next 10 to 15 years, using organic LED to store information on an object like a sheet of paper. An example was for use as a newspaper. He said that you could potentially view video in a newspaper, and have every page of that newspaper stored in one sheet. Is this possible, and if so, how does it work. Please describe or give a link to a website that describes it.

I beileve this is already possible. I saw it on KFMB one time (TV Station) and it is possible to use organic LCD displays on a very thin plane. Of course it is not being distributed yet, but it in the processes. It works by arranging organic LCD cells (they are very small and thin) aligned with some pixels. The pixels will not have the clarity that we are used to, but it will be suitible enough. This is all information from my own self, and if any of it is wrong, I am sorry, but I hope I did my best!

The Tournament\nFive teams are playing in a tournament. Each team plays each other team only one time. How many games will be played in all?

10 games\nExplantation:\nEach team will play 4 games.\nTeam1 x Team2\nTeam1 x Team3\nTeam1 x Team4\nTeam1 x Team5\n_______________\n4 games\n\nAlso:\nTeam2 x Team1 (counted for in above) \nTeam2 x Team3\nTeam2 x Team4\nTeam2 x Team5\n_______________\nNet: 3 games\n\nand so on...\n\n4+3+2+1=10 GAMES\n\nTHE GENERAL FORMULA:\n\nFor No. of Teams = N \nand each team plays each other only one time the general formula is:\n\nNo. of games= N*(N-1)/2\nfor our example:\nN=5\nthen:\nNo. of games= 5*4/2=10 games\n\nUsually for Football Leagues competions every team play the other team twice (Home & Away), therefore; they count the total number of matches as follows:\nN*(N-1)

I'm not sure I will not be bored half way through the season! lol

I joined a fantasy baseball head-to-head league on Yahoo this spring.  I am already addicted.  I really like the fact that as the manager you can make changes on a daily basis.  I had to get the stattracker so that I can keep up to date on what my team has done through the day or evening and not have to wait until the next day for the matchup scores.  I have two first basemen and two CF/LF....I really like being able to change the line-up based on current statistics, hot streaks and cold spells. \n\nI guess it does seem like there are a lot of games, but I think the fact that I have to keep track of so many things may make me a better fan and way better @ baseball trivia.  I HAVE TO look @ my team every day.  :)


I can tell the names of several that don't.


My uncle is in the hospital and they say he has fluid around his heart and he is having a hard time breathing. what could be causing this?

I think if it is fluid around the heart, he probably has what is called pericardial effusion. This is accumulation of fluid in between the 2 membranes that surround the heart.This can be caused by many things, which include:\n\n1. Viral Infections:  Coxsackie, influenza, Epstein-Barr, echoviruses, varicella, HIV, etc\n\n2. Bacterial: Usually from infections of the lung extending to the pericardial membranes.\n\n3. Tuberculosis\n\n4. Uremia: commonly seen in Renal Failure.\n\n5. Autoimmune causes: like SLE\n\n6. Neoplastic: Due to extension of a malignancy from the lung to the pericardial membranes. Also malignancies like  breast cancer, Renal cell cancer, hodgkin's disease and lymphomas may invade the pericardial membranes and produce pericardial effusion.\n \n7. Drugs/ Radiation\n\nSince the causes are too many, it would be difficult toguess what is causing it in your uncle. The difficulty that he has in breathing could be due to the increased pain during inspiration that is seen with the inflammation of these 2 membranes. It could also be due to a lung disease or accumulation of fluid around his lungs (pleural effusion) too (just like the fluid around his heart).

We were playing suck and blow with a twist, blindfolded. we were sitting next to an annonymous person and the card fell and he and I kissed. I didn't know who it was, but we kept kissing. we took off the blindfolds and i discovered that i had been kissing my counsin. it sounds gross, but it was the first time i kissed a guy, and i keep thinking about it. I know it's wrong, but i'll never forget it... am i a freak?

Is the ACE fitness certification for personal trainer nationally recognized by most gyms? Anyone know what the test is like?

Yes, the ACE certification is generally recognized. However, having a variety of certifications from different organizations isn't a bad idea either. The ACSM and YMCA have several generalized personal training certifications, and special interest groups often have other certifications (the Yoga Alliance has yoga instructor certifications, for example). According to the website, "Once you successfully pass the ACE Personal Trainer certification exam you will have demonstrated your knowledge of basic exercise science, nutrition, fitness assessment, exercise programming, and instructional and spotting techniques." If you decide to take the exam, be sure to study ACE recommendations for spotting, instructional techniques, and exercise programming, as these especially may vary from the stances and suggestions provided by other organizations.


Why do people believe in a God, or higher power? I have a prediction that when Science finally does advance so that we explain so many things, no one will believe in a God. Notice how a long time ago, lots of people believed in several gods because they had no idea how many things happened? As science improves, it gets more and more clear that there is no God for certain things, and that will keep happening until there is no God at all. Idk, you tell me.

ignorance and closed-mindedness but also having been brainwashed by religious leaders. \nYour comment about science is right, in the future use the example of gailileo. How the catholic church sent him to jail for stating the earth revolved around the sun and that after 500 years they catholic church admitted to be wrong.\n\nEdit:\nTO rayna: get a clue dollface the constitution does not say we must practice religion as you are trying to imply\n\nEdit2:\nJust watch you'll have people use circular reasoning to support the idea of a god


I am so sick of seeing immigrants not conforming to the good old Aussie way of life. The Gold Coast is especially bad for it. Muslim women wearing full head dress in the middle of summer, no one speaking english, Japanese men expecting women to move out of their way on the footpath, street signs written in Japenese, each culture forming their own little colonies, God Sunnybank in Brisbane is a game of spot the Aussie. Little club houses everywhere, greek clubs, russian clubs, croation clubs.Sure many try to fit into our way of life but alot dont, why bother coming, feels like australia is quickly loosing its laid back, beer on a friday, bbq on a sunday identity.Bondi riot is one example of it and the same thing is happening on the coast. A friend of mine was stopped at a set of traffic lights and beaten through his window by a bunch of greek thugs. I say if you dont like the way we do things piss off to where you came from

I'm from the US and all I have to say about this post is-  ha ha ha ha Now you aussies know how we feel.


what is nvidia SLI chipset for motherboard that have 16x speed for each of the two pci-express SLI on motherboard????\nbecause some nvidia sli chipsets just have 8x speed for each of the pci-express on motherbord.


I asked a question but was not sure how this all worked Ididnot added the meds name becuse i thought i would be emailed  well the med is called methotrexate I was given this med with know clue what i was taking. I asked about it and the doctor said to just take it that it would help with the eptopic pregnancy and now i have this med. running through my body and know nothing about. sorry for the miss info before.

This medication is used in concert with Misoprostol to induce a chemical abortion.  An ectopic pregnancy is very dangerous and potentially life threatening to you.  There is no possibility that an ectopic pregnancy would have or will become viable. \n\nMethotrexate was developed as an anti-cancer medication (chemotherapy) but is useful for these purposes because it is so tetragenic (injurious to a fetus - but that's the point, right?)\n\nPossible side effects can include anemia, neutropenia, increased risk of bruising, and nausea. A small percentage of patients develop hepatitis, while there is an increased risk of pulmonary fibrosis.  These side effects are problems that would happen with extended use of the medication...I am sure you have been prescribed only a few days worth...therefore you should not have any significant side effects.\n\nBy the sounds of it, you have been through a lot.  Try to take it easy, spend some time with friends or family.\n\nTake care dear.


did adam and eve come first on this planet or the dinosaurs? because it's hard to believe that they was around when dinosaurs wouldn't they jus get eaten. thi is a serious question

this is exactly why i don't believe in adam & eve.  i think adam & eve are SYMBOLIC of the first men & women (plural) on earth.  i think that God created evolution & set it in motion.  therefore, dinosaurs came first, and humans evolved after.  we can call those first people "adam & eve."


What are the x values of all the critical points of this function?:\n\nf(x) = x³-6x²+12x-4 \n\non the domain Df = [0, 5], as a set {in curly brackets} of the form: \n\n{a, b, ...} \n\nfor real constants a, b, ...

i have a ant farm.. i want to find a queen ant so i can start my own colony.

ant queens and males form large mating swarms in spring/early summer. That's the only time you can see winged ants. The males are usually clearly smaller and they don't shed their wing (they just die after mating). \nAfter they have mated, the females shed their wings and crawl around looking for a good space to start a nest. This is the time when you want to get them for your ant farm.\n\nSo first wait for a swarm of "flying ants". Look up mating swarms of ants on the internet to find out more info.\nLook around if you can see wingless ants of the same size and shape than the big winged ones crawling around. Collect as many of the big ones as you want antfarms into a vial/empty jar (don't collect them from nest entrances if you are not sure you can distinguish worker ants from queen ants). \nPut only one in each ant farm. For some species it can actually be good if you put a couple together, but in other species they will kill each other. So play it safe and just use one. Wait and if she starts to lay eggs you eventually should have an ant farm. \nIt is important that the ant farm is not completely dry, ants need some humidity levels to thrive. But they are not aquatic insects either, so use don't overwater.


i have a baitcaster rod a small spinner reel some bass cranks some regular panfish baits i want to buy somthing in the budget of $15 im a 14 year old im going to table rock lake in Branson Mo and im prbly gonna fish 4 an hour an a half.

You'll want to use the small spinning outfit.The lures you'll want to use will be too light to cast with anything else.Any small spinner (Panther Martin,Mepps,Roostertail)in silver,yellow,or white,seem to be the preferred colors.Small spoons also work in the same colors.Contact my profile if you have more questions.

I want to find a way to represent 0-255 (256 values) in seven bits rather than 8 bits. Log2(256) states that it must be 8 bits. I want to do the apparently impossible and do it in seven bits. Do you have any ideas?

This is possible only if at least half of those 256 values will not be used at all, and that you know which ones won't be used beforehand. If that's the case, you can map the remaining values that will be used with 7 bits.\n\nSee Shannon's entropy equation...


it was sooooooooooooo weird nothing even happened in it, wats the point? those that we dont speak of blah bla blah lol

I seen this movie awhile ago I believe it was mostly about parents being paraniod they didn't want their children growing up in our terrible world with all the violence and all so they built a village and made it like it was in a more simpler time so to speak and told the children there was a monster out in the woods so they wouldn't leave and even basically pretended to be those monsters to make them believe that I thought I was overprotective about my kids never thought of that.

I made a schedule in excel that I would like to make the desktop background on a user's computer.  Does anyone know how I would do this without allowing the user to edit it?  Perhaps jpg?

try this..after making the schedule..save it ...then save it as a different name as a web page in your pictures folder. then you should be able to choose that as the wall paper. however you must make if small enough to see on the entire screen as you will not be able to scroll or make any changes

I think it's amazing how some people just know by what their body tells them what the weather is going to do! Lemme hear your story!  :)

I injured my knee in a White Zombie concert years ago when the crowd rushed the stage and it took 3 security guys to get me out.As they were lifting me over the barricade, the crowd rushed the stage again and 1 of them slipped and dropped me, and all my weight came down on my knee that hit the metal barricade.Yeah, it hurt like hell, and I was on crutches for a bit.But ever since, my knee starts bothering me when it gets rainy.I asked my doc about it and he said it's because the calcification of healed fracture expands during humidity.Or something along the lines of that like that.

I want to connect by a wireless connection from a program writen in VB.NET for a pocket PC to an ORACLE 9i database. Does any one has examples, links or utilities of how to do this?

You can use the System.Data.OleDb namespace, which is supported in the .NET Compact Framework 2.0:\n\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemdataoledboledbconnectionclasstopic.asp\n\nTo use that, you'll need the OLE DB provider from Oracle:\n\nhttp://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/ole_db/index.html\n\nPersonally, I'd use the .NET Framework 1.1, which includes the System.Data.OracleClient namespace:\n\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemdataoracleclient.asp\n\nThe only problem there being, eventually that framework won't be supported by Microsoft any more.

i'm doing a project for science and i want to know what the properties of solder are ;_;

solder is a low-melting point alloy;  the reason for the low melting point is, of course, that it is easier to melt so that a conducting connection can be made between components.  Many types of solder contain lead or tin, both low-melting metals.  A mixture ( like an alloy ) always has a lower melting point than the things you put into it. The m.p. of tin is about 232 C  and that of lead is 328 C.

I have been seing some one 4 a year now and really care 4 them but i'm still in love with my x and i feel bad because the relationship that i'm n now i know the person luvs me alot but i dont want to hurt them by being dishonest. I really want to be with my x but i dont want to hurt any 1. what should i do?   Who'll I Choose?

you should tell the person you're with now your true feelings, that you love him, you care for him, and love him.. but you still have feelings for your ex... tell him that you're sorry, and didn't want to hurt you.. but he's gonna hurt more if you stayed dishonest to him.. tell him that he'll find the right "one" for him, and you're not the "one" for him.. and when you've done that.. maybe now you can work things out with your ex! tell him that you still have feelings for him, and that you couldn't stop thinkin bout him! =)


instead of when our employer wants to take it? After all, people have differing beliefs and celebrate different  "Holidays".

Depends if its a legal and proven holiday. And not one you make up.

It depends first of all what your intentions are.\nIf you are genuine, get a work permit and beforehand, go to night classes.\nThe better you speak English, the more you will be accepted into your new society. Plus, you have got more of a chance of getting decent job. Good Luck!


I'm in love with a man that I've never touched or been with physically.  People tell me it's not love bcuz of this but I think that's what makes it even better.  We love each other FOR each other and not the physical aspect.

Yes i think its possible....Its your own love, people cant decide your feelings for you.\n\ngood luck

I didn't get to watch it so I'm wondering what happened.

Bre: Her parents came when they heard about her and her son. They tried to get them to make peace with each other but it didn't work. Her parents had decided to take him with them until they found out he was gay and they also took his trust fund away so now he's stuck with Bre.\n\nGabrielle: Being so superficial she was trying to get a nanny for the baby. Carlos wouldn't have it. So she would secretly have that new maid take care of the baby. Then she accidently left the baby in the house alone forgetting that she had gave the maid the day off. once she realized it she raced home and felt so bad she couldn't put the baby down.\n\nSusan: Her daughter was pissed at her once she found out that Carl was trying to reconcile and bailed on the plans to go to the movies. Susan went alone but when she saw Mike walk in with a date she convinced a stranger to pretend to be her date. The stranger later on advices her against getting back with Carl because he felt he was being a coward. Susan dumps Carl but then Carl lied to Susan saying that he had left Edie but he hadn't and Susan slept with him. Of course when she found out the truth she was pissed.\n\nLynette: One of the twins was obssessed with vaginas and was asking random females to show him in exchange for a treat (cookie, popsicle). She had gotten advice to shame him into thinking it was wrong and dirty and sinful to think about it. But she couldn't bear herself to do it so she bought him a puppy to take his mind off of it. It worked.\n\nPaul Young/ Zach: Mrs. Huber is now doing all types of dirty things to Paul to piss him off. She replaced his lighter fluid with gasoline, put some slippery substance on his front porch, and arranged to have his house tented/fumigated for termites while he and Zach were still inside.


we talk all the time but neither of us can ever find something to talk about.

Silence is powerful is a communication too, its important to find a way to interpret silence.\n\n   One way to start talking about something is to talk about nothing, that is, everything that is natural and espontaneous in the relation, another topic is that, why there is silence and how relevant or important is for building a better relation.

sorry if i spelt this wrong but my mother thinks she has it and she has to have massive amounts of tests done first because this is not an easy disease to diagnos.  From someone who has this, can you tell me how were you diagnosed?

I am not sure I necessarily agree with Dr. J's assessment of what constitutes a diagnosis.  There are many disease entities that we don't know what causes them, yet they clearly remain a disease - hypertension, MS, depression, and Alzheimer's Dementia are among many others.  He also made a point about Vit D deficiency and he's probably right about most Doctors not testing for it.  \n\nFibromyalgia is a funny syndrome.  There are definite definable similarities between patients.  Unfortunately we have not been able to isolate any pathology to "fix."  It may be a matter of we just don't know what to look for.  I suspect that we will eventually discover that this syndrome is literally all in people's head.  (Not to be confused with an imaginary thing)but a disorder in the brain either is causing the pain and fatigue or sensing it too acutely.  \n\nThe symptoms you typically have with a virus - achey, tired, are not the virus rather it is our own body causing this and signalling us - hey, you are ill, slow down.  I bet this normal process has gone bad and is implicated in fibromyalgia.  When we figure out why this area is working overtime, or at least how to treat that area, I bet we will have a legitimate treatment for FM. \n\nThere are treatments now, however - and people do get over the problem.  Two areas of high importance in my experience is treating anxiety or depression if it exists (almost always does) and treating any sleep disorder (frequently exists too).  These are two areas that have the biggest impact on a patient's outlook and there lies the rub.  Those who are positive and manage not to look at this like they are a victim do much, much better.  Those who feel helpless and victimized do much worse.  Check out some of the links above.  I wish your Mother well.

Since from the time of US invasion in Iraq, the oil prices are incurring a upward revision and there seems to be a chance of getting it downwards. Adding to this the US is conflicting with the Iran in nuclear issues. Hence the third world countries will try to pull down the soaring oil prices by consolidating the countries barring the US. Russia, China, India and South American countries may form a coordination pact and work with that. I am sure the global economy will change in the near future. Hope this will happen at the earliest.

no, the more we war with the middle east, the higher prices are gonna go. south america is laughing because they arent gonna sell to us either. we are alienating ourselves. by this, we'll choke off any oil contacts & grind our production, tranportation & economy to a halt. uk isnt gonna back us anymore, we lost any european alies with the last iraq campaign, the saudis have other customers & dont necesarilly need us & irael has always sabbotaged usa, obviously not our friend. we have 20 years of oil at best here at home. china & russia wont buddy up. who do we have left. we're wedging ourselves into a position of having to attack & steal. yeh, the global economy will change in the near future, for the worst.

My girlfriend and I are having a discussion about what age kids can start working out.  She thinks like high school.  I say around 6 years old you can bring them into the gym.  Ride the bike and a little weight lift.  But in the back of my head I think, once the kind starts crawling like crazy, we can stick him on a treadmill.  Supervised of course.  ;-)

kids can lift at any age,, just not to heavy in the younger years so not to stunt or affect their bone growth,, just what ever is comfy,, but lifting in the younger years, under 13 won't do much because their muscles are growing everyday so the added use doesn't do much,, at around 13 or 14 is when the muscles start accepting added stimuli and are able to take on the extra use for growth,, i would advise against pushing younger kids into weights until their body is ready ,, just keep them physically active until they are in the early teens as to keep the body fat down and their meatbolism high,, that is one problem with kids now a days,, to much time in front of the tv playing games,, leads to obesity

Settlement agreement was reached March 10, 2006 at mediation hearing in Baton Rouge, La. Is there a limit on time for attorney's to compensate all parties involved.

Well, I am sure they have a time limit, although I doubt it is what you'd want to hear. Probably at least ninety days? \nThe losing opponent will have to send the payment to your lawyer who will then put the check into a "trust" account, or some such crap, and then divvy up the proceeds, themselves first, of course, then any fees, doctors with liens, and last of all, you.  I would have you call your attorney and ask these questions.  Get what you paid in fatigue and pain for, answers and monetary compensation. Don't let them blow you off or make you sound greedy, it is your right to ask and their job to answer. End o' story.  Good luck with the timing.

I am going to be going back to college soon after a 10 year hiatus and I need to refresh myself in Trig and Calculus.  I took both in high school and college, but the lack of use over the past decade (holy crap!!  it's been THAT long!) seems to have created a very large gap in my memory of the subjects.  Any ehlp would be greatly appreciated.\n\nThanks!!

Hello. Free-ed.net has a number of "free" college courses. I've explored the site, and I can't seem to find any catch to it...Free really seems to mean free in this case.\n\nThe trig class seems fairly thorough http://www.waybuilder.net/free-ed/Math/Trigonometry/trig02_SPK.asp\n\nThe calculus course is even cooler...a neat, video-based class\n\nhttp://www.waybuilder.net/free-ed/Math/Calculus/Calc01_NROC.asp\n\nI also once used the book "Forgotten Calculus" which is written exactly for the type of situation that you are speaking of.\n\nYou can pick up a used copy for $1 at half.com\n\nhttp://product.half.ebay.com/Forgotten-Calculus_W0QQprZ887877QQtgZinfo\n\nHope this helps!\n\nJason


why is everything so round if we come from a big bang why is it that some planets square or oblong

big bang didnt produced planets. it produced gases and small particles. when the gases started concentrating at a point in space, they experienced huge forces of gravity. and thus got molded in a shape which offers minimum volume(SPHERE).

i have been at my job for 6+years & have a very good reputation with my customers & co-workers, now we have the uppe class of the company coming in a expecting us to do role playing. i'm good at my job. although if i have someone watching over me i'am terible. i feel it is wrong & demeaning!

"keep your thoughts positive...Your thoughts become your words.\n\nKeep your words positive...Your words become your actions.\n\nKeep your actions positive...Your actions become your destiny!"\n\n---Words to live by!\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore the class even starts pull the instructor aside and let then know that you are uncomfortable.  But, this shows you are unwilling to accept change.\n\nHave a positive attitude and TRY.  Some of these role plays are REALLY stupid and boring, but some of them really open up lines of communication with your co-workers that were closed before.  You may learn something new.\n\nNever be closed minded about things.  You should not feel demeaned.  that is not the intent of the role plays.  I have had to do ALOT of them over the years and have to lead a few.  Since you have been at your job for so long, you will be looked upon by your co-workers to set the tone of the room.  If you have a sour attitude, they will also and the role plays are no go for any of you.\n\nBut, if you let go of the hostility and say "Aw, what the hell, I'll give it a try" then others will follow you and you will have created a less tense situation.

Will prenatal vitamins have a negative effect on my hormones or are they just like other vitamins- good for everyone.  also if u want to chyme in on how to thicken my hair, be my guest.

No, it won't affect your hormones nor will it be harmful to you.  It has extra B9 (folate), which will just be excreted in urine if you take it in excess amounts.


I was told to take no flush timed-release niacin for high cholesterol.I think I know what no-flush meanes,but wanted to be sure.

Too high of levels of niacin will leave you feeling hot and your skin will turn flush, red, and blotchy. Time realease will prevent overflooding of levels in your system.

if programs can pick up on ideas in a sentence, or paragraph, then crossmatching and comparison etc could lead to sophisticated artificial intelligence being developed/developing itself, based on the data submitted to a site like this. Could this site really be about collating information for developing artificial intelligence?

It may be a development site and it may be striving for something artificial, but if you read the average question and answer it is not likely that intelligence is involved.


It shouldn't be this hard to find one still around and available.

absolutely not..we don't exist anymore. We were abducted by aliens and replaced with these poor copies...lol


oscar de lahoya vs. ricardo mayorga fight may 6 2006 Who will win

Ricardo Mayorga may have guts, but he's never been in against a boxer as skilled as Oscar De la Hoya. DLH will find openings even when Mayorga isn't offering them and hit him with a variety of punches. This and Oscar's reach advantage will keep Mayorga from getting in much good offense. The only factor I see working against DLH is his recent inactivity since his KO loss to Bernard Hopkins, but he knows how to get ready for a match so I doubt it would be too much of a problem for him.\n\nOscar De la Hoya - unanimous decision or possibly late KO.


I've been watching a few programs on pimping recently (for reasons I'd rather not go into.)\n\nOne thing I've remarked on is that every single one of them dresses like an complete and utter dog's breakfast.\n\nWhy is this? There must be some reason for it--you don't get that many appallingly dressed people at a Star Trek convention. \n\nAre there any pimps out there who can tell me why they choose to look like they got a three year old to pick out their outfit from a fancy dress shop? \n\nDoes pimping have a long term impact on vision? \n\nDoes it affect the part of the brain that regulates use of velvet?\n\nI need to know the answer to this question.

Not all pimp outfits look bad.  Go to http://www.pimphats.com/ then you will see that some are actually kinda cool.  The purpose of the pimp suit is to stand out from the crowd.  By spotting you, people should understand that you are in fact a PIMP.  How else would you be able to do business?\n\nYou guys should try some of the pimp n ho parties going around the nation, they are really fun. \n\nRemember, keep your pimp hand strong!


when i give my gf oral, it takes her more than 15 mints. is that normal? sometimes i get bored and tired.

it depends i guess. sometimes i go in like 5 mins. sometimes it takes me 20. so yeah it's normal, just remember how much your g/f is going to love it, you shouldn't get bored then. lol maybe tired, but hey..you gotta do what you gotta do.


We’re doing a website for a TV station, and they want to have a live TV broadcast, the signal from their side will be SDI, after research we’ve came to two options, which made things confusing:\n1.Installing DVR on the station\n2.Using a streaming server\n\nNow:\n1.Which is the better solution, considering:\na.We want the best quality video and audio\nb.We’re considering having two choices; WMP, Real, and both have low (about 56k) and high (about 300k)\nc.We use Pal system 25 FPS\nd.If DVR is the best, then what’s the best available\ne.If Streaming server is the best what’s the best available (how about Real http://www.realnetworks.com/products/rbn/index.html#rbn)\nf.The video should be inside a custom page we create\ng.We have our own dedicated server, should we move the whole website to the streaming server?\nh.We’re planning to have a mirror servers, incase one is down it would direct to the mirror

Why is it that just because it is writen in THE BIBLE it is the only truth.

I recommend that you look into the folklore literature which will demonstrate how similar the bible and its themes are to other mythologies. Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung are excellent authors to start with. Christians basically believe what every other faith believes. Their way is the only TRUE path to God. In my opinion (as a Christian) that's incredibly narrow-minded. If you've read the Chronicles of Narnia (and if you haven't you should) the last chapter of book 7 "The last Battle" has a scene where Aslan (Christ) allows a young man who was a follower of Tash (another god/demon) into the real Narnia (Heaven) because his actions were congruent with the Aslan's teachings even though the young man didn't realize it. Basically I believe that those who are following Christ's spirit or philosophy even if they're not doing so in name have as much if not more truth than most christians.

Absolutely.

It is hard to find grants to start a business, and scholarships are for getting an education and not for starting a daycare. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html


I am a college student in a database class, and my team is working on a large security project for World Vision International's new LEAP database.  We are using Resin's built-in functionality to monitor the login page on the site.  However, there appears to be a default user for the mySQL database, as we cannot create a new user from the website even though the code is correct.  It keeps saying that the default user lacks the permissions even if we log-in at the website (through Resin) with an account with the proper permissions.  Can anyone shed some light on our problem?  Thank you very much.

I haven't read all of this but it may be of some help check it out its worth a try! Hope it helps you good luck!

My friend went to a wedding with her parents and her b/f left her to go with some friends and so some other guy asked her to dance she said yes and her b/f saw her dancing and now he wont talk to her what should she do?

I think her boyfriend needs to grow up a little.  People dance at weddings. My boyfriend and I have been to weddings where one of us was in the bridal party and the other wasn't. Which at most weddings it means you have to dance with another man or women for at least one dance (when the bride and groom are asked out on the dance floor, then, the bridal party is asked to join them).\n\nUnless, the guy was doing something really inappropriate like grabbing her butt, then, it is no big deal.  He needs to get a grip on his jealousy. You have to deal with your significant other interacting with people of the opposite sex sometimes. It is a fact of life and one that he needs to learn to accept if he wants any type of meaningful relationship.\n\nTruthfully, if he is going to get angry about something so stupid, then, she is better off without him.  Next thing you know he'll be angry because she talked to another guy.  It will never end.  A little bit of maturity and self-confidence goes a long way.


LOL FINISH THE PHRASE IN A HUMOROUS WAY...

I started listening because 1 I love to dance and wanted to learn, and 2 I plan to major in spanish and my spanish II class sucks and this is my last year in highschool. Because I transferred I skipped a year of spanish last year so for the past two years I've been listening to latino music and I want to know, is it really helping me? Will it help me learn spanish, or at least get ahead of the curve for freshman yr of college?

I am Mexican so I already know some Spanish.  But I have learned soooo much from Spanish music.  Especially since I listen to it a lot.  I don't really know how much of it will help you since a lot of music does contain slang, but it should help you a lot with the pronunciation of words.  You should try spanish t.v. shows or spanish films with English subtitles.

what is the artist/title of a new rap song... chorus is like.. " that girl derr, that girl derr, that girl derr " that girl got booty, and the beat is like a high end pitch part of a piano, ive heard it on the radio a couple of times, but they never announced anything about the title or the singer.. please help if anyone knows anything..

The artist is named ((POTZEE)), \n\nSong is called ((DAT GIRL))\nHe's signed with Asylum Records and is from St. Louis. Here's his Artist Page..  http://www.potzee.com/\n\n\nPotzee, Potz Spifwell, Potzee Lil' Heathen, same Hip Hopper, three different personas, so many styles that lil' dude is sick wit' it. Not the average “Rapper” but a “Hip Hopper”, as Potzee states in his lyrics, he proves that he can party, kick it, and at the same time have plenty of lyrical content to please the masses. Potzee flows just like, looks just like, sounds just like, um.. yeah that's it-nobody. In a class of his own, Potzee is ready to be the next St. Louis MC to break into the \nbig leagues. Born and raised in St. Louis, MO, Potzee has been putting' it down since '93 grindin' with the likes of Nelly, The St. Lunatics, and Chingy. As a youngster, Potzee went to school with, played sports with, and freestyled with the then St. Lunatics (Nelly and The Lunatics) and found a best friend in Murphy Lee. Coming up, Potzee rapped with many crews but found a home with The Quor. While making a name for themselves, Potzee landed an opening act gig on the St. LunaticsCollege tour. On the road with Nelly, the St. Lunatics and the soon to be “Chingy” is where Potz experienced what being a true superstar is all about. Starting off as the opening act, Potzee very quickly landed a spot on stage right before the headliner. Potzee once stated, “I feel at home on stage. Interacting with the crowd and seeing the crowd react to my music is what I love the most about performing!”  While scoringbig with several hits, Potzee has made his way to the top of DMX and XM Satellite charts and he has elbowed his way passed several regional “pump it or dump it” contests. Potzee is very well known as “that one dude that can spit a whole verse using words that all start with the same letter!” Yeah, Potzee has a major regional buzz and that's cool but it's his time to burn and he’s ready to set the world on fire. Location: St. Louis, Missouri, United States\nGenre: Hip-Hop » Pop-Rap .Similar Artists: Nelly, Murphy Lee, Ludacris.


I've had lots in incidents from when I was little to do with horses and touching them, but twice in 2005 I got a runny nose, itchy eyes and spots on my face. In btween these 2 incidents, I visited another horse but nothing happened. Anyone know why this happened as well?

You might be allergic to the dust or hay, not the horse dander. Or the hay allergy might be worse.\nWhat was different the times you didn't react?\nLess windy? Less dusty? More grass? Leaves falling/ trees blooming? Horses shedding or not?  Shavings bedding or straw bedding? Indoors/outdoors?\n\nMy husband takes Claritin when he comes to see my horse-\nit's a bit drowsy-making for him but lasts a while and works.

he never talks to me and my friends say that when im not looking he's their looking at me and i need to know if he likes me cuz i've been in luv with him since september of 2005.he's sweet and nice and i dont dress up only three times out of the whole week and he always notices.

Ask him to help you with something. Guys like helping girls, it makes them feel wanted. Do not play to helpless tho, in the long run this can make you unattractive to him. From here you can find opportunities to be alone with him and just let things happen naturally. If he really does have feelings for you it will work out, just have patients and be his friend first.


I have been dating this guy for almost a year and we have a great relationship, he is a great guy and I love him and I know that he loves me. He is a little older.I am a model and get allot of attention when we go out, so when my boyfriend sees this he will almost always try and find a girl he can say something about, like "WOW look at how nice that girls ass is"  He does not ever say that about me, and when I ask him about that he says that I shoud know that I am hot and that he does not need to tell me all the time.  That whould be just fine with me if he does not always have great things to say about other woman, and tries to find the best looking girl when we are out, and then say someting really nice about her in front of me.  I sometimes feel like he does this to make me feel insecure, or to get me back for all the attentions I get, like it is my fault.  I don't mind that he looks, all guys do. It is the staring and the comments that hurt me and it feels like he is disrespectfull

Sounds like your an old Trophy on the mantel. Your dealing with an insecure type A personality.

A.) Overproduction of farm products\nB.) Increasing costs of farm labor\nC.) Importation of food from Europe\nD.) Decreasing interest rates on loans

Wisesayer makes sense.  Note: the Smoot-Hawley Act killed free-trade.  Farmers would have lost the 'world markets' for their products.  The net result would be a temporary oversupply of farm products in the U.S.  This would quickly result in bank loan foreclosures on the insolvent farmers who couldn't sell the products of their labor for a profit.  Destruction of free trade was an important piece of the downward economic spiral the government created for depression era Americans (and the world).\n\nThe question is, have we learned anything?  Bush, in his first term signed  laws that again limited some free trade (steel, lumber and possibly cattle tariffs).  I am not a supporter of much of what Clinton did as President, but the one economic issue he 'got right' was his strong support of free trade.

I got a teaching job for the fall teaching a class full of kindergarten boys. I am certified to teach 6th grade and am getting my masters to be a reading teacher B-12th grade. I always thought I would be teaching older students, however I really do need a teaching job for the fall. \nShould I tough it out and get the experience knowing that this will not be a permanent thing? \nI don't see any other offers my way right now. What do you think?

Caligirl, I know what you are feeling, I was there once too, just starting out, I am a teacher.  \n\nI have a Multiple Subject, Single Subject in Spanish and the BCLAD.  I have taught at one time or another at all grade levels in both English and Spanish.   My assignment now is an ELD teacher, K-12.  Included in my daily schedule is a morning 1/2 hour daily pull out instruction with a small group of kindergarten kids.  This has become one of the favorite times in my daily schedule.  It took me some time to get used to it, but one of my favorite age groups now is the Kindergarten age.  So much so, that now, when I could choose to do so many different kinds of assignments for summer school, I choose to do Kindergraten review.\n\nGo with the Kindergarten assignment.  I know you are specializing in reading and are considering teaching upper grades, but there is nothing more rewarding than working with children at the Kindergarten level.  Yes, you may not want to do it for long, or perhaps for more than a year, but it is true this experience will be rewarding and respected for years to come and for future interviews.  Reading is now introduced at the kinder level and your knowledge and experise will be appreciated by parents, teachers and district staff alike AND you will get some great initial classroom experience in pre and early literacy instruction.  If this is a public school, you will probably sign up for the BTSA teacher support program providing additional training, peer support and some classroom/materials funding.\n\nGo For It, Caligirl!\n\nP.S,\nHave you ever considered looking into the Peace Corps?  I was a training coordinator for the Peace Corps once and there are some great education programs for teachers to work in now where one not only gets some great teaching experience but can help train colleagues in other countries as well while getting a good second language and culture experience.\n\nGood Luck In Your Endeavors!


Physical fitness, Nice running with the ball, understanding with other players etc, what else we think more about that?

When u said etc, it means 'and others'. So it means that my answer is already from etc. But anyway, I would think more about how many goals he has scored for a team in a VERY GOOD LEAGUE or TIGHT COMPETITIONS or how many saves does he do when he played for a VERY WEAK team against a VERY STRONG TEAM in a VERY GOOD LEAGUE or TIGHT COMPETITIONS(that's for the goallies). The aim of a soccer team is to WIN with wonderful goals.


I think Rosey isn't eating because she went to Discovery Zone and played there. I think Rosey doesn't like crickets anymore. She doesn't stay in her cage. She doesn't like school. She likes playing in classrooms. She's overweight. she isn't feeling good of the crickets. She maybe ate something. Maybe she isn't eating because she is sheding her old skin.

Are you talking about some kind of reptile?


No husband. Do I continue to defer and accrue interest?

I would defer for a year and get a job in a field you like (not necessarily by degree)some of us have degrees AND problems finding a job, go to a career center (in every city)or look into continuing education classes and sit in on some of the classes, there you will find such things as how to make a resume (with or without a work history) how to apply, what to wear, what to say, what to expect....etc. please don't worry, if you like you can write to me and I can walk you through the process..
