Okay, i really really like this guy, I'm 16, but anyway, he is the same age, and we hang out ALL THE TIME, but I am pretty sure he likes me only as friends. Is it hopeless? What could I do to encourage the our friendship into something more? Am I just kidding myself here? Help please!

...From experience, you cannot make it be anything more than what it is. \n\nYou can sit and try to change things and make them into something more, but reality is that you cannot change how someone feels. Be honest with him and see how he feels, you never know he may feel the same, but if he doesn't he doesn't and that's plain and simple.\n\nIf his feelings are not mutual, my best advice to you is to let it go, be his friend and if things progress into something more AWESOME, if they don't be glad you have him as a friend. \n\nYou are only 16...you'll have MANY opportunities in the future.\n\nA quote for the situation that I loved when I was going through the same thing:\n\n"Should I be happy that you are my friend, or cry cause' that's all you'll ever be."


I am a 57 year old woman on disability. I worked over 30 years as a administrative assistant. I am good with the computer. Can anyone help me find a job that I can do on the computer?

You could consider doing an online TEFL certificate then working over your computer as an English teacher.  An online TEFL won't be enough to teach IN a school, but it will help with online job opportunities.  The link below is one of the more highly-regarded programs, and a link to the type of employer you could expect to work for if you followed this career path.


What does the Term Unweighted mean when talking about GPA average?

It means that the grades are based on the standard scale:\na=4pts\nb=3pts\nc=2pts\nd=1pt\nf=0pts\n\nA weighted GPA scale is as follows:\n\na=5pts\nb=4pts\nc=3pts\nd=2pts\nf=0\n\nA weighted gpa usually only applies if you're taking Advanced Placement classes or college level courses.


i dream that the person i been lonnging to be my love is pregnant and her abs show that she is pregnant.  im woried, can anyone tell the meaning of this dream.

Well.......   It sounds to me that you are very in love with her.  Your dream appears to say that you want to be with her, and raise a family together.  This is something you also long for that your subconscious may be trying to tell you.  Think about it, and how your dream makes you feel.  Good Luck!\n\np. s.  The best person to interpret your dreams is you.  Everyone is different, and so the symbols in your dream are specific to you.

The parents don't have to work that day nor have anything to do that day. They are just sitting home doing NOTHING. They went to their junior high school graduation, but not to the high school graduation. They get along with their kids and care about their safety, happiness, and identity. Their kids are still living at home and have no plans to move out yet. They just don't care that their kids are graduating from high school, why???

I am sorry that your parents didn't go to your graduation.

how to get nice calfs. Im really worried about my calfs becuase they are big and fat. How would you get nice calfs without weights

Running and/or walking helps. The calves have to learn how to hold all of your body weight more, so the muscle builds up from being used so much. \n\nBut you should consider weights, leg extensions are great for the calves and will make them really muscular and sexy.


i only have AAA boobs but im 5"10 and \nis there any way to do soemthing?????

Some women's breasts don't grow until they're much older than the age for "average development"...I was very flat-chested until about 18.  Also, weight has something to do with it.  If you are very thin, you breasts won't grow b/c you don't have enough body fat, since breasts are fat.  As many of us learn as we get older, breasts get larger the more you weigh.

I think people miss what Johnny brought to the Red Sox.  But I do not think anyone misses Johnny Damon.  He is a Benedict Arnold, a Brutus, he is a traitor.  He could have gone ANYWHERE and we would have applauded his entrance back to Fenway (like Millar) but he CHOSE the Pansy Pinstripes.  And for that, we will despise him forever.  As it was written, so shall it be.


For me, i buy greatest hits/best of albums of the band im new too only, oh and  also to add them on my cd collections too, for example im a big fan of red hot chili peppers and i got oall of their full lenght album (cds), having their greatest hits album not only provides 2 bonus tracks but it does help on my cd collection too.\n\nif you're going to answer "you still buy cds?, i dont, mp 3 / ipod or whatever is alot better" then dont.;-P

By now, I buy less cds cause they're too expensive...but I used to and I really don't like greatest hits, cause every album has a history and his own life.


I am 18, my bf is 20, we've been together for 1 year, I love him so much. And he asked me to move and live with him. It's impossible for me since I have a very religious mom, she'll kill me if she finds out that I wanted to live with my bf. And I want to keep my virginity too. My friend suggested me to marry my bf. And once my bf said to me that he want to get married young. But I think I'm too young for this. I've just finished high school, and want to enter univ this year. What should I do?

Get as much academic and personal experience and training as you possibly can - that means you should include travelling/working throughout the world and seeing how others do and must live.  After that, if there is still room in your life, marry this fellow, providing he is still around and interested.  This will be highly unlikely, as by the time you graduate university alone, a lot will have changed for YOU, and your interests and his will undoubtedly be very far apart.\n\nAs well, believe it or not, your Mother will turn out to be your best Friend, if you let her.


In 2003, Mexican workers in the US sent $12 billion home to Mexico. President Fox said that is "our biggest source of foreign income, bigger than oil, tourism or foreign investment."

We need border security immediately and all else should wait.  That will at least restrict illegal immigrants to bottlenecks where they can be more easily managed. (Love the wrestling pigs analogy!) Putting amnesty and guest worker programs in place now while waiting on studies and permission from Mexico to build barriers to future illegal immigration is ludicrous.\n\nLetting the Senate get away with putting a 'rolling' ten year statute of limitations for border crossing in the bill so all illegals have to do is stay 10 years (or forge documents pretending they have) is completely out of line.  The very fact that they slipped that provision in secretly while piously and loudly discussing what illegal immigration may or may not be legalized is dishonest and an insult to our intelligence.  This is an engraved invitation for illegals to enter in the future and is far worse than the amnesty for those already here.\n\nFortunately, the House approach is very different, and any compromise will have to take that into account.  \n\nWrite to your Congressmen about this.


We would have had to take a breathalizer test and, more than likely, we would have been handcuffed and taken in. Why are the Kennedys so revered? And why shouldn't any Congress person be treated like everyone else under the law?

The Kennedy family is the most honorable family in the country. They have never received preferential treatment from law enforcement officers. They are upstanding men who respect the institution of marriage and have the highest regard for the laws of our nation...\n\nHA! Bullsh*t!\n\nSeriously, the patriarch of that family was a bootlegger who helped manipulate the 1929 stock market crash. I don't wonder that another Kennedy is getting away with something.\n\nI just want to know: WHY THE HELL DO PEOPLE KEEP ELECTING THESE *SSHOLES TO REPRESENT THEM??????


This is the mailing address:  \nRoyal Bank of Scotland\n42 st Andrew square\nEdinburgh\nEH2 2YE, United Kingdom\n\nPart of email:\n am MR HARRA JOHN, the Managing Director, International Personal Banking of The Royal Bank of Scotland. I am writing following an opportunity in my office that will be of immense benefit to both of us.\n \nIn my Bank we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.5m.usd in\nan account that belongs to one of our foreign customers Late Mr. Morris Thompson an American who unfortunately lost his life in the plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight 261 which crashed on January 31 2000, including his wife and only daughter. You shall read more about the crash on visiting this website.  http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines. list Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin or relatives to come over and claim his money because the Bank cannot release the funds unless somebody applies for it as next of kin

I get similar e-mails all the time.  The only thing I know to do is to forward them to the below address.  Honestly, I don't know if it does any good, but that's what I have read.


The plane that was waiting for them took off without them.  They ended up just running into the woods.  The Vice President lady became President..and Lincolns Ex g/f found the man he's accused of killing..alive and well.

and how would you throw a stone (a random stone found in the streets) so that it reaches a very long distance. it seems i cant throw them more than 20 meters.

If a person with a good arm can throw a baseball 100 meters, a smooth pebble the size of a golf ball, having approximately the same weight as a baseball, but much less resistance in normal atmospheric conditions at sea level, could be thrown at least 125 meters by that same person.


Why some men can father females children only and others males children only

My husband and I just had our 3rd child...another GIRL.  Yes that's right we have 3 daughters.  So, we asked why are we just having girls?  We were told that yes the male is the determiner. O.K. we got that but why all girls and no boys?  We were told it depends on which chromosomes, the X's or Y's are stronger.  Then that one will make it through and be able to fertilize the egg.\n \nI also believe that it's what GOD has planned for you.\n\nHope this helps.


i've previously applied to a 4-year college within the last year, and for whatever reason did not attend. and now that i'm ready to give it another shot - i've earned 21 college level credits along with a gpa of 3.80. therefore, i am planning to send in a renewal application. here's the question, they do not require a short essay on this renewal application but i somehow feel as the essay i've wrote on my previous application cannot explain what i've learned and accomplished within this year. will it affect the final decision if i send in my renewl application along with a short essay even though it's not required or asked for?

Don't bother with the essay - it's not going to make one whit of difference in your admission.  Most universities will keep applications on file for one year - which means that you've been accepted for a year, and you can choose to attend pretty much whenever you like within that year.  In fact, probably the only reason you have to send in a 'renewal' application is because you're transferring in some college credits (although not enough to make you an official transfer student), and they just want to make sure you didn't fail them.  So don't sweat the small, inconsequential stuff.  :)  P.S.  In the eyes of financial aid, you're still technically a "new freshman", so be sure to ask the financial aid office about any scholarships or grants you may be eligible for.

We have altered our grocery shopping habits.  The rising cost of fuel has caused the price of groceries to go through the roof.  We don't buy as much meat or fresh fruit & veggies, and we are buying a lot of pre-packaged.  Not as healthy, but more affordable.\n\nWe are not the kind of people who eat out, buy new stuff, party, or really have any excess fat in our budget that can be trimmed.\n\nMy business requires me to drive to my customers, as does my husband's.  We are fortunate to live in a part of the country where gas prices have remained below the national average.

I am from the Los Angeles area in California.  I speak just like everyone else here.  Is it probable that I do indeed have an accent?  A British person once told me that I do in fact have an accent.  Is that unattractive?

Everyone has an accent, and you may not know it.\n\nThere is no "one way" to speak english, because of all the accents out there. \n\nThey have LA accents, NY accents, TX accents, OH accents, etc.\n\nHaving an accent isn't bad, it just matters who your talking to. The British person probably thought you had an accent, because you don't speak with the same "accent" as him. Vise versa,in our point of view, we think that British people have accents.\n\nAnd no, its not unattractive because if it were, then no one would find ANYONE attractive (ie all people have accents). \n\nAlso, i find accents attractive.


pleaz if you guys are just goin to say something ignorant pleaz dont answer... think wisely about this question.

All of these illegals will eventually stay, become voters, if the DNC has their way, their population will continue to grow and they will become a voting block that has NO interest in our language, history, military, or patriotism, only the $$$$ that are available will be the main interest.\nThat scenario is not totally here yet, but it is lingering in the future if our national course of extreme liberalism continues to erode the very fabric of our nation.\n\nthe current state of the immigration laws is the significant rise in population that has, and will, continue to occur over the next fifty years. According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), an estimated 1.1 million immigrants, both legal and illegal, enter the United States every year. 700,000 of these are legal immigrants; 120,000 are refugees, and between 250,000 to 300,000 are undocumented or illegal “aliens” ( Baldwin, 1995). The United States population at the moment is roughly 288 million people. If this trend of aliens is not decreased, the population will reach 400 million by 2050. How many people can America hold?


Im having a gr8 dance video clip.But it is in ".bgr" format.Windows media player =plays only the audio and doesnot display its video.Could i kno if theres any software to convert it or which can play such kinda clips.

Hi,\n\nWhat I would suggest for your issue is to download the VLC software. It's great and already has all the codecs you need. I'm using it and every-time I've got a video to watch It works with that latter.\n\nSo you can go to : http://www.download.com (and search for "VLC") and click on the latest one : "VLC Media Player".\n\nThere you go !!!

can anyone enlighten me?? what is this diet all about??

Basically, you ingest between 100-400 calories of sugar water or flavorless oil between meals. You have to have a two hour period where you ingest nothing but this. The idea behind it is more psychological than physical. I've been on it for three weeks and have lost 11 lbs. It works.

When did lions become extinct in the arabian peninsula

Believe it or not it was less than 100 years ago.\n\n\nLions were reported to be numerous in the reedy swamps bordering the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers in the early 1870s. The last known lion in Iraq was killed in 1918 on the lower Tigris (Hatt 1959).

YOUR QUESTION BEING? THIS ISNT A CONFESSIONAL WE DONT CARE WHAT YOU LIKE


...this is not for you, as your career is most important.  I play with people that have tried out for major league teams.  You better be extremely good to walk on the team.  You can try college teams if you haven't gone to college.. That would be easiest.  The next best way is to try out for an independent team, like the Long Island Ducks.  You can easily get noticed, and don't have to "come up through the system."


hmm...Its seems like they were novels set in a place where we haven't experienced yet.

i mean all this talk about illigal immigrants is just a headache  soooo just lets BUY mexico for like 10000000000000000000000000000 million pesos (which is like $100 US dollars) and call it good   all the little mexicans are happy and they will still have jobs and we can add like 50 more states   THE 100 STATES OF AMERICA! Does mexico have oil?? if yes then I am sold!!

I don't think that the Mexicans would agree. Mind you, there is always the option to invade it like the US normally does with other countries, but then again Mexico doesn't really have a lot of resources that the USA is interested in.

Two secretaries in an office ,the first one ends typing a report in 2 hrs , the second one ends typing the same report in 3 hrs, if they both cooperate to type that same report, how long it takes them to finish typing it.

Imagine if they had 3 hours to work on as much as they could. In those three hours, they would get 1.5 and 1 reports finished, the fast sec finishing one and one half done and the slower sec only getting one done. Now, if in 3 hours together they can do a total of 2.5 reports, how long to do one report? It's just 3/2.5 which is 1.2 hours which is the same as one hour and a fifth of an hour, which is one hour and 12 minutes.

the majority of americans are oblivous to the hatred that they are engendering around the world. I lived in the US for 12 years and I know that most people I met were really generous and forward thinking people....but very self absorbed. I now live in UK and I see the US from a distance. The majority of people in the UK, supposedly America's greatest ally, find America's Foreign policy appalling and we are 'Freinds'. America may go to Iran - it has proved that from a high level it has bad judgement and...I think it would be foolhardy to beleive the politicians have learned anything from Iraq..other than a whole bunch of wealthy Republicans have made a lot of money from the conflict...and therefore more conflict will be good andmay well happen. republican governments love war unfortunately...all this balony about security is just a cover. If you live anywhere except the US you can this crystal clear...PS I love 'America' the ideal - which is what the policiticians always tap into..but America the reality is, at times, unfortunately very sinister.

Does anyone homeschool? I do my 5 yr old and I Love it.. What do you think about it and why? Please tell..

Did you know that Einstein, one of the greatest inventor and thinker of the modern history, was raised with Homeschooling?\n\nOne day little Einstein came home crying to his mother.\nHer mother asked what's wrong, and this is the exact words Einstein used: "My teacher told me I'm no good at anything. She told me I'm slow, don't have any talent and won't be successful in anything."\n\nHearing that, her mother decided to stop sending Einstein to school, and teach him by herself. The rest is history.\n\nYou will get many many comment on how is his/her social skill if he/she doesn't socialize. Well, I would ask them what kind of society you are talking about? The society that tells how inadequate you are? The society that tells you that you won't succed in anything?\nNo way I'm gonna send my kids to that.\n\nYou are doing a good thing. This way you get to pick what kind of socialization your kids are having. You get to pick the positive, affirming society that can tap your kids' potential to the max.\n\nI strongly suggest you read this book: \n"If you want to be rich and happy, Don't go to school", by Robert Kiyosaki.\nThis book will open your eyes on how our schooling system create loosers instead of winners. You will be happier not sending your kids to school.\n\nIf I have kids, I would do the same thing you do.

I saw a woman bid $86,000 on her showcase because she was offered a trip to Russia. I guess she didn't want to go to Russia!

Even if the prize was stupid, like a two-year supply of dishwasher soap or something, I'd still bid on it and hope to win. Even though you end up paying taxes, you could sell the prize(s). People will buy ANYTHING, especially if it's benn on tv or is somehow connected to tv -- just look at what's on e-Bay. Then I'd use the money I made to buy something I really wanted instead.

An Islamic person yesterday indicated that Muhammed was "picked" on and not Jesus. I have asked loaded and thought provoking to Christians. I've gotten a lot of regurgitated bible verses and coined answers. On the other hand I got some incredibly well thought & well answered questions that were thought provoking. They took their  lumps very well. I purchased a Quran and started reading the book. So far I'm incredulous! If I was a woman I'd want to be Islamic. ( This is extreme sarcasm.) The verse in Women 4:24  in the Quran states, "All married women are ( forbidded unto you )save those (captives) that your right hand possess.

Sounds great! If god is on Islams side how come there getting their heads kicked in by the allies?

Have you known anyone with amnesia, or had amnesia?  Do they remember their religion?

I've been accused of having "selective amnesia". I've forgotten by whom. But given what I know of amnesia, some people remember some things and not others. Some people remember nothing at all. So ... The correct answer to your question, given amnesia and the way it works with various people, would be ... Yes & No. And I'll trust that we all remember that fact in the future. lol ;-) ~ Peace & Blessings ~


If I suspect that diamond (jewelry) prices will fall, is there any way to "bet" on that eventuality in the financial markets or online gambling markets or through any other monetary transaction or mechanism? For example, if one suspects that gold prices will fall, one can sell gold futures. Is there something similar or economically equivalent for diamonds?

There is not.  Unlike gold/silver, diamonds are very abundant.  Their price is manipulated and controlled by DeBears.  I would not invest in any type of instrument such as you are describing.\n\nDebears regularly adds/subtracts from the market for specific types of stones depending on what challengers are trying to do.  Ie if a country tries to sell diamonds outside of Debear's pricing mechanisms/controls.  You could easily get killed with such an instrument.

i need the site if also possible!! i need to know why u.s decide to drop a nucleur bomb in hiroshima and nagasaki?? and also why did japan bombed pearl harbor??

Pearl Harbor \nPearl Harbor Raid, 7 December 1941 --\nOverview and Special Image Selection\nThe 7 December 1941 Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor was one of the great defining moments in history. A single carefully-planned and well-executed stroke removed the United States Navy's battleship force as a possible threat to the Japanese Empire's southward expansion. America, unprepared and now considerably weakened, was abruptly brought into the Second World War as a full combatant.\n\nEighteen months earlier, President Franklin D. Roosevelt had transferred the United States Fleet to Pearl Harbor as a presumed deterrent to Japanese agression. The Japanese military, deeply engaged in the seemingly endless war it had started against China in mid-1937, badly needed oil and other raw materials. Commercial access to these was gradually curtailed as the conquests continued. In July 1941 the Western powers effectively halted trade with Japan. From then on, as the desperate Japanese schemed to seize the oil and mineral-rich East Indies and Southeast Asia, a Pacific war was virtually inevitable.\n\nBy late November 1941, with peace negotiations clearly approaching an end, informed U.S. officials (and they were well-informed, they believed, through an ability to read Japan's diplomatic codes) fully expected a Japanese attack into the Indies, Malaya and probably the Philippines. Completely unanticipated was the prospect that Japan would attack east, as well.\n\nThe U.S. Fleet's Pearl Harbor base was reachable by an aircraft carrier force, and the Japanese Navy secretly sent one across the Pacific with greater aerial striking power than had ever been seen on the World's oceans. Its planes hit just before 8AM on 7 December. Within a short time five of eight battleships at Pearl Harbor were sunk or sinking, with the rest damaged. Several other ships and most Hawaii-based combat planes were also knocked out and over 2400 Americans were dead. Soon after, Japanese planes eliminated much of the American air force in the Philippines, and a Japanese Army was ashore in Malaya.\n\nThese great Japanese successes, achieved without prior diplomatic formalities, shocked and enraged the previously divided American people into a level of purposeful unity hardly seen before or since. For the next five months, until the Battle of the Coral Sea in early May, Japan's far-reaching offensives proceeded untroubled by fruitful opposition. American and Allied morale suffered accordingly. Under normal political circumstances, an accomodation might have been considered.\n\nHowever, the memory of the "sneak attack" on Pearl Harbor fueled a determination to fight on. Once the Battle of Midway in early June 1942 had eliminated much of Japan's striking power, that same memory stoked a relentless war to reverse her conquests and remove her, and her German and Italian allies, as future threats to World peace.\n\nhiroshima and nagasaki:\nSome of the most frequent queries concerning the atomic bombs are those dealing with the selection of the targets and the decision as to when the bombs would be used. \n\nThe approximate date for the first use of the bomb was set in the fall of 1942 after the Army had taken over the direction of and responsibility for the atomic bomb project. At that time, under the scientific assumptions which turned out to be correct, the summer of 1945 was named as the most likely date when sufficient production would have been achieved to make it possible actually to construct and utilize an atomic bomb. It was essential before this time to develop the technique of constructing and detonating the bomb and to make an almost infinite number of scientific and engineering developments and tests. Between the fall of 1942 and June 1945, the estimated probabilities of success had risen from about 60% to above 90%; however, not until July 16, 1945, when the first full-scale test took place in New Mexico, was it conclusively prove


can anyone tell me some good remies of songs that i can download as in 80,s and 90,s not really into rap music \nlike, U2, COLDPLAY,BEN FOLDS,ANASTACIA, ERIC CLAPTON. those kinda songs

what are the points one is expected to raise in discussing the political economy of mass media in a country

American newspapers only print a small part of the truth. They do not print the truth about China because China is a large trading partner. They do not print the truth about Cuba, because it would embarrass the United States. There are a zillion examples of newspapers withholding unpopular news.


someone told me it was a spaniard who invented the light. I think it was thomas edisor or davy.

Thomas Edison is credited with creating the incandescent light bulb. He, however, did not create it from scratch. He improved on the designs of others. He also created the generating system to power the bulbs.


Hi, I got in the mail an AOL 90 day risk free thing. And I decided to try it. And then little did I know that I had to provide my address and everything. But I did input everything. And to my astonishment, I had to then pay $24.00 or something monthly. I was scared to death and I just shut off my computer by pressing about 7 seconds on the on/off button. Then now what do I have to do? CAll them, or what? I mean, I'm not 18 yet. ANd plus,,,it says it'll only give you a refund only when your account is in good standing, and only the paid standard AOL monthly membership fees will be refunded. Other costs, including dial-up charges, hourly fees, and premium services will not be refunded. And so, what can I do...any ideas? I don't want to pay anything.\nBest good answer, 10 points will be awarded.

Did you give details of your bank account before you switched off? If not you wont be charged, if you did then call up your bank and cancel the direct debit, that way they cant get to your money. If you did it some other way just cancel it.


Can you be fans of both teams or are you a traitor?

you are a traitor.. you can't be fan of both teams.. that's like being a fan of Yankees and the Mets. Of course, if one loses and the other survives to win the championships, you can be fan of that team temporarily and then switch back to the team you were routing for.


What does that inner voice whisper to you?  Evil thoughts or Good?  Mine can be a little devil sometimes - especially answering some of these questions - lol.

my inner child is basically good. He was traumatized so he does have his issues. When he wants to contemplate evil it is because he does not trust and is afraid due to his experience. Yet when I have a heart to heart talk with him and assure him I will take care of him - and that takes some doing as he is not apt to trust me either - he usually settles down. So I cannot call him evil, he is just afraid and he feels so alone. He just wants to be loved and cared for. By the way this is a very good question that forces one to do a lot of reflection.


Let me explain:  Back when girls got married at 13,14,  they grew up in the marriage, they learned cooking skills and often cooked for a large family, they sewed, worked on a farm and raised several children successfully among many other things.  They also enjoyed long marriages, grew to love their mate very much and seldom got divorced.  Cases of teen pregnancy and other things were rare.  So was teenage marriage good for it's time?

When teenagers got married (ie the Middle Ages), the average person didn't live past thirty-five.  Teen pregnancy was NOT rare, because most teenagers were married and popping out kids on a regular basis (due to ineffective or non-existant contraception).  In the Middle Ages, teen marriage wasn't necessarily good, but it was necessary for population growth.\n\nI don't think there is a statistical connection between teen marriage and quality of life.  At the time when teen marriage was common, things like television, radio, Internet and "weapons of mass destruction" didn't exist.  Similarly, universal education, women's sufferage and environmentalism also didn't exist.  Societal changes and differences between then and now are not caused by marriage, but rather changes in technology that have led to longers lives and higher standards of living.


i need to find my cousins it's been about 21 years since i seen them last. They need to know that their birth family still loves them and thinks about them all the time please help me locate them.

I need several things for my chemistry class... Provide what you can, please!\n\nI need the COMMON NAME for-\n-carbonic acid\n-zinc \n-aluminum\n-nitric acid\n\nI need the CHEMICAL NAME for-\n-Fool's gold/pyrite\n-bleach\n-acetylsalicylic acid/aspirin\n\nI need the Importance/Uses of-\n-Wood alcohol/Methyl alcohol\n-Magnesium hydroxide/milk of magnesium\n-carbonic acid\n\nANY help with any of the needed names is fine, thanks! :)

Common name?\nThose are pretty much it. Carbonic acid happens to be carbon dioxide dissolved in water, but I don't think that counts.  \n\nThe chemical name for fool's gold is iron disulfide, FeS2. \nThe chemical name for bleach is sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl.  \nThe chemical name for aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid, like you said, formula C9H8O4 or structurally C6H4(OCOCH3)COOH. \n\nMethanol, CH3OH, or wood alcohol or methyl alcohol, is used as an antifreeze, solvent, or fuel.  \nMilk of magnesia (not magnesium) is a laxative used to treat constipation and can also be used to relieve heartburn and indigestion.  I know you've seen the commercials for this stuff.  \nCarbonic acid is, again, carbon dioxide in water, which is basically soda.


i dont know why im doing this im just procrastinating on some hw

My name is Ashlee, but my nickname is Charlie - so you can call me Charlie. I'm a Freshman in Highschool, and I have a B average in majority of my classes. I've been signed up for Honors English and Honors French next year so far, and I need to get the rest of my courses signed. \n\nI'm fluent in English, and I'm half fluent in French. I study French and German when I'm not in school, and I aspire to go to college to be either a Plastic Surgeon or work in the field of Psychology to help people overcome events in their life. \n\nI know binary code, and Javascrpit. \n\nI listen to a lot of kinds of music. I don't listen to Country, Hiphop, R&B, Rap, Jazz, or Gospel.. but I often listen to Foreign polka, Electronica, Ska, and Hardcore.\n\nI'm an open-minded student, and instead of looking at a problem from only one angle, I take my time to analyze it and get the big picture, as well as the small details. \n\nI like eating food that makes me feel good about who I am, and who I'm with.\n\nI like to drop my spare change on the ground, because I remember how special I felt when I found a nickel or a dime on the ground. \n\nTheres loads more, but this is all I'm going to write for now. I hope I aided your procrastinating. :D


I have had an ultrasound and HIDA scan, both normal.  I do not feel that I have any heartburn sensation, just gripping pain about two hours after eating...

You are probably suffering from acid reflux. The acid from your stomach is going into your esophagus and burning the delicate lining away. It doesn't give you heartburn sensation all the time, but can cause pain that mimics a heart attack, or make it hard to breathe if the acid is aspirating into your lungs. Have your doctor send you for an endoscopy, where they put a tiny camera down your throat to take pictures; this will show if the lining is being eaten away. In the meantime, go by some Prilosec or Zantac and start taking that. You can combine it with Axid AR to reduce the acid in your stomach, and it should give you some relief. Avoid foods high in acid and spices, such as tomatoes and peppers.\n\nIf it was pain just from your gallbladder, you wouldn't get the pain only after eating. Intolerance for fatty foods is one of the signs, but the pain is usually more steady.


I know a 67 year-old granny who has just had a tattoo on her shoulder. I also see kids - under the legal age of 18 in the UK with them. Why?\nWould it not be better to have removable transfers, so that you don't have to go through the pain of firstly,having them and secondly, if you change partners, having them removed (very costly!)

Everybody has their reasons for getting them or not getting them.  If somebody is in a gang, they get one to represent what gang they are in.  This comes from history.  When tribes wanted to recognise one another, they would get matching tattoos.  Some people get tattoos because they like the way they look.  Some people get tattoos because they represent something.  Some people get tattoos because of religion.  Some Christians get a small tattoo of a cross on their wrist to show that they are Christian.  Some gypsies get tattoos in the middle of their foreheads to show that they are gypsies.  Some people get them for fashion.  Bottom line is, what may not be good for you may be perfect for somebody else, and that is why we all need to respect each other's opinions and feelings.


like meaning why does it not get answered if its not bold or highlighted anymore? or receives less answers. (i know this is not under the right category so sorry for that)

As newer questions are post, olders are pushed back. Thus, little amount of people would see the old posts.\n\nI think Highlited posts mean that their open but unhighlite means their in voting or rating. \n\nwww.diamondgemztone.piczo.com\n<>dia gemz\nsheri

How did Leonardo da Vinci code illusrated on the Last supper painting that the one sitting beside Him(Jesus) is Mary and they had a relationship?

People need to keep in mind that The Da Vinci Code was written as a work of fiction and not get quite so tied up in knots about it.\n\nHow many Mary's in the bible?  Gosh, I don't really know for sure: \n\nMary, the mother of Jesus\nMary, the sister of Lazarus and Martha\nMary Magdalen\n\nWere there others?


describe the similarities and or differences of the major factors that influence the creation of advertising messages on both local and foreign markets

No matter where you are in the world, people want the same things.Sadly, these are primarily to be richer (or at least appear richer) and look better. So any advert which offers these things will be effective. The main differences in the markets would be in how the message is put across. Overtly sexy images might be offensive in some cultures, for instance.


I have a idea that will interest her on the energy crisis. This idea, if she uses it will put her on the front pages of all newspapers and TV's and will help her become president. I feel that if I just send her an Email or a Registered letter or contact her offices it will fall on deft ear.

Is it a cesarian/abortion she must have had before marriage?? I feel cheated into the marriage.

The scar could be from any kind of abdominal surgery.  Yes it could have been appendicitis- her appendix could have actually ruptured and caused infection in her abdominal cavity- in which case they would have needed to have a large incision to get to as much of her insides as possible to clean all the infection out.  Why haven't you just asked her?  And why do you feel cheated?  Have you two not talked about your past? Don't assume she had an abortion- they don't do major surgery for that.   C-section scars usually are low bikini line scars, but emergency C-sections and older women have scars that run from the navel to the hairline.  Just talk to her, and trust her.

Im gonna play soccer @ school next year when the season is opened. Ive been on the team once and that was years ago. any tips?

One word-SPRINTS- there is no better tip than getting into game shape. You should play pick-up with some people and work on your foot work too. Also when you get pissed off kick the football around and knock the crap out of it the work on power on your shot.

I want to install the OS (preferably win XP home)on a DVD, and the rest of the programs files, etc on the HDD. the idea is to avoid system crash on power failures & also allow faster boot. Like on a winXP install CD, it boots from the optical drive & then works on the HDD. Whatever settings we make later are saved on a writeable media (HDD) from where the OS reads it after startup, the same thing happens on every boot and the OS with basic config is always secure.\n\nSomthing like the new Smart hones which have the OS on a ROM and everything else on a writeable media. So whatever you do, the OS can always be restored to the original state with the press of a button.\n\nPlease dont suggest a UPS, the purpose here is diffrent. Alternately is there some HW available that I could use (like a ROM chip) but where would it be installed on a regular desktop motherboard maybe it could work on the IDE port or the PCI slots.\n\nCost is generally not the issue.

yo cannot do that, because the system files, cache files, and most of the other files are constantly being chnged, updated, and overwritten, the cd cannpt be changed once it is written so it won't work, nice thought though. \nwhat you can do, is when you first get your system set up, is to burn a disk image of your system onto a cd or dvd, or an image file on another HD, or even a large flash drive, create the restore disk and then just run the restore program, and direct it to the image file, and then you will get your system back pristine. Symantec ghost will handle that for you


If you were pro what would be your thoughts on this?

If the purpose of our prison system is incarceration, then it is doing a great job.  There are few escapes.\n\nIf the purpose of imprisonment is deterrence, then we're not doing an effective job.  Maybe we should do what the father "Red" on "That 70s Show" said was the Soviet penal system:  "First offense, they send you to Siberia for five years.  Second offense, fifteen years.  THERE ARE NO THIRD OFFENSES".\n\nIf the purpose of our current prison system is to rehabilitate criminals, it's doing exactly the opposite.  They learn better, more sophisticated criminal techniques in jail.\n\nI'm not some "soft on crime" liberal.  However, I believe that we could substitute VERY HARD PUBLIC SERVICE in lieu of jail time.\n\nBack in the Great Depression of the 1930's, unemployed people were offered jobs in the Civilian Conservation Corps or the Public Works Administration.  The projects they worked on are still enjoyed today.  Why not resurrect these types of work programs?  Just put tracking bracelet on their legs to discourage running away.\n\nGiving these people healthy, dignified work will be great rehabilitation.  With most criminals (maybe not some of the child sex offenders or rapists) you can combine punishment with rehabilitation.  We just haven't tried hard enough.


i was arrested for domestic violence. i took a plea bargain and was given a deferred sentence so at the end of my probation it will say on my record "no conviction".  my understanding was that it would be completely erased, but im not sure. my fiance and i want to travel out of the country and also possibly live in europe.  am i going to have problems getting into other countries (and/or living in another country) because of this offense?

Yes some countries will not allow you in.


It could be for several reasons, however you really should talk to a dr. about this. I once had a charlie horse so bad, that the muscle in the back of my calf twisted around so tightly that it tore a ligament when I was 15!\n\nMost commonly they are caused by dehydration, basically not drinking enough water, the muscles becoming too cold, or decreased oxygen & blood flow. Usually that is linked to sleep apnea. (Where you stop breathing, then breath again, then stop again, over & over several times a night in your sleep. You have to have a sleep study/test done in order to determine if you have it.) \n\nIn worse cases, it's sometimes the sign of a neurological disorder.\n\nI feel for you, I still get this to this day. I know how excruciating & terrifying they can be.

Hubby gone (again) on a fishing tournament for the weekend about 2 hours from home.  Staying at a hotel with 5 other guys.  Fishing by day; Bar activity by night.\n\nIs this just legitimate "guy time" or are they casually inviting people/women to rooms for post-bar party & potentially cheating?\n\nWe met as teenagers; dated 9 years; married 11 years; 2 young children; some stress at home; sex life infrequent.\n\nI don't believe he has long term affairs...but I do wonder if he uses these weekends away to "try his luck."  He's not the type to play the field, however, if he/his buddies innocently invited women to an after bar party at the room...\n\nDoes this sort of thing happen & is this how it's set up?\n\nAlso, I'm an unwelcomed caller during these types of weekends. He will typically call home early...like 7:00-7:30pm, say they are going to have a bite to eat & call it a night...Would it be more normal to call just before going to bed?\n\nOne more thing...he denies.\n\nThanks!

He sounds like he never grew up.  I have a son-in-law who is the same exact way.  In fact I'm wondering if you are my daughter who is writing this.  Whether or not he's cheating with another girl or not he's cheating your children and you out of a family life together.


MY DAUGHTER NEEDS A GED AND SOME JOB SKILLS SHE IS EMOTIONALY DISTURBED AND WE NEED SOME HELP

You could search job core on the internet, but I had a friend who got in even more trouble when she went. You have to remember that most of these kids are usually in some type of crisis, which is why they ended up there in the first place. With her having emotional issues, that may not be the best option for her. Thats just my opinion, though. Im sure many kids have turned their life around from job core. I think it's more of taking personal responsibility for your past actions that makes some kids thrive there and some get into more trouble. Just take into consideration how easily she is influenced by her peers. If she gives in easily to peer pressure, I would consider another option. Maybe surrounding her in a controlled environment with other emotionally disturbed girls would be of greater benefit. Good luck and I congratulate you on being a concerned parent. Your daughter has that in her favor.


if you saw a obese woman walking down the street but was wairing nice clothes what would you say about her would you say "man she is fat" or "well she manages to look right"

Neither, it's never nice to make fun of people. If it was you who was the fat one how would you feel?

Me and my ex have been split up now 4 3mnthz.. i still really love him and its so hard 2 let go.. I cnt just get on wiv things because i wrk wiv him so hes there all the time. He finished wiv me end ov jan and within 2 weeks he woz bak wiv his ex.. This made me so mad and unhappy,but i still go on wiv thingz.. We wernt even 2ghta that long bout 5 mnthz, but i do still love him .. plz help x

That's a real tough one. And millions of others have been through the same thing. I am not going to lie to you and say it'll be easy, especially since you work with him. It's a process that you have to go through taking one day at a time. I think it's a pretty sure bet that if you got back together that the same thing would happen again.You may love him but he has to find his way back to you if and when he realizes that it's you he really wants to be with. So as hard as it is, let him work things out for himself. If you have close friends or relatives spend some time with them and if you have interests then try to keep yourself busy without over doing it. It's hard, but I think a person has to learn to try to relax as much as possible in a situation and not allow depression to creep in and get a grip. Don't let obsessive thinking get the better of you. In a sense it is an opportunity for you to learn to enjoy just being alive and being your own person. Some men and women keep making the same mistake bcause they either let someone back when it's not wise because they love them and are lonely, or they get involved with someone new, too soon, and the cycle repeats itself. Like I said, don't fixate on it, but try to enjoy each day as much as you can. You will have down times, but over time you can and will recover and you may discover a brand new life for yourself. So allow yourself to grieve a little but let yourself have hope for your future too.


Please serious answers only.\n\n\nI feel like I have a character flaw where I always want to please people, I find that when people tell me or ask me to do something I just do it, wanting to be liked or even loved.\n\nI have a hard time saying no to people even when they ask me to do something I do not really want to do.  I can say no but its very hard.  \n\nAny suggestions on this or has anyone been like this?  Will i grow out of this?\n\nThanks

I was exactly like that, you have the need to please ppl where you never confront anyone or tell them how their new haircut 'really' looks because it could possibly hurt them, you turn into the doormat or a push over...It didn't just affect my friend and family life, but also my love life, which lead to my ruin...you see, i started dating this jerk, who always treated me like dirt, but i didn't say anything afraid he'd leave me, It was awful, and it ruined/changed my life since than b/c my ppl pleasing went too far, and hurt me so much i didn't know who i was...you may groow out of it, but for me, i had to learn to care more about me than everyone else, or else i'd be miserable and being a ppl pleaser has major consecquences, so please, learn how to not be a ppl pleaser, you'll be happier and better off\n\nRemember "You can't love anyone until you love yourself"...which counts for Not being a ppl pleaser


Why did o.j get away with murdering two white people,if that was a white man done it two two black people we would still be having riots right now!A black kid gets hit by a white man driving a car and blacks riot and loot for days.Is their a different set of stanards for blacks and whites in this country?Also in most jails in this county 90 percent of prisoners are black and hispantic,why?Don't give me that shit about civil rights blacke got all their civil rights and more in the 60's.I think blacks are just violent by nature!

1. Blacks make up 15% of the US population yet make up 90% of the jailed population. There are more blacks in jail than the entire population of Alaska.\n2. We get long prison terms than other white counterparts because most jury's do not feature black jurors. This is mainly due to not registering to vote, not going to jury duty, and having criminal records that disqualify them from serving. The few that do sure on jurys throw the book at the black criminal for they view that criminal another person enforcing the stereotype about black people.\n3. Lets look at sports-you have guys flunking drug tests, raping women, doing drugs that are black and keep getting chance after chance on sport teams. Yet the white counterpart never gets a second chance.\n4. I'm not even going to get into rap music.\n5. Parents taht don't care. They instill that the white man is to blame for everything and to get out of a crime just yell racism.

A person who doesn't think has no business giving an answer. If you had kept quiet we would never have known :)


And i call my self a basketball fan!!!. but on my defence its the only phrase i dont know.

A double-double is a basketball term, defined as an individual performance in a game in which a player accumulates a double digit number total in any two of these categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots. The most common double-double is a combination of points and rebounds, and then next is points and assists.\n\nDouble-doubles, unlike the more difficult triple-doubles (or ultra-rare quadruple-doubles), are very common in the NBA, and in fact there is usually at least one player in each NBA game that manages to record one. In each NBA season, rarely do more than a handful of players average a double-double.\n\nA triple-double is a basketball term, defined as an individual performance in a game in which a player accumulates a double digit number total in any three of these categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots.


The California legislator seams to be Anti-Legal Immigration.  They have serious political and financial problems cause by the huge numbers of illegal immigrants.  Do you think we should call California a lost cause and build our wall along the California boarder, giving California to Mexico, (It's going to sink into the ocean soon anyway).

Nice idea, but that is totally out of the question. Remember that Hollywood is in California...imagine the tax return the IRS gets on those millionaires hollywoodian salaries...major bucks!! Not to mention that 90% of all the produce in the US comes from California! \n\nWhat we should build is a virtual wall, with heat sensors, and automatic lazer guns. It would shoot any warm body crossing the border..bunnies, as well as illegals...illegals be ware you're getting zapped!


I need something like a timeline during not before or after!

this has some good info, there's even more of you follow the link\n\nCauses and outcomes\n\nWhile complex, it is possible to group the causes of the Holodomor. They have to be understood in the larger context of the social revolution 'from above' that took place in the Soviet Union at the time.\n\nIn the early 1920s, when Soviet Russia needed to win the sympathy of other nations for the newly born communist state, Ukraine enjoyed a short period of revival of its national culture under the policy of Korenizatsiya. This was, however, ended and replaced with the a policy of effective Russification, as soon as the Soviet regime firmly took root, thereby causing significant social, cultural, and political conflict in the Ukrainian populated territories.\n\nSimultaneously, a policy of collectivization of agriculture was introduced. Agriculture in Ukraine was affected more strongly by this than most other agricultural areas, as Ukraine has had a long tradition of individually owned farms, while most farms in Russia, for example, had been communal (not collective) property.\n\nUnexpectedly, from the Bolshevik point of view, Collectivization proved highly unpopular with the rural population. When collectivization was still voluntary, very few peasants joined collective farms. The regime therefore began to increasingly put pressure on peasants to join collective farms, and to speed up the process of collectivization, tens of thousands of officials were sent into the countryside in 1929–1930.\n\nAt the same time, the "Twenty-Five Thousanders", industrial workers, mostly devoted Bolsheviks, were sent to help run the farms. In addition, they were to fight the increasing passive and active resistance to collectivisation by engaging in what was euphemistically referred to as "dekulakization": the arresting of 'kulaks' — allegedly well to do farmers who opposed the regime and withheld grain — and sending whole 'kulak' families into concentration camps and Siberia. In fact, most of the so-called 'kulaks' were no more well off than other peasants. Effectively, the term 'kulak' was applied to anybody resisting collectivization. It is estimated that around 2 million[citation needed] Ukrainians became victims of these repressions in 1929-1932.\n\nCollectivization proved to negatively affect agricultural output everywhere, but since Ukraine was the most productive area (over 50% of Imperial Russian wheat originated from Ukraine in the beginning of 20th century), the effects here were particularly dramatic.\n\n \nPassers-by no longer pay attention to the corpses of starved peasants on a street in Kharkiv, 1933.Despite the decrease in agricultural output, Soviet authorities soon drastically increased Ukraine's crop production quotas (by 44% in 1932). The targets were unrealistic and many historians believe that this was intentional. On August 7, 1932, the Moscow government imposed death penalty in Ukraine for any theft of public property [7] [8] [9]. The scope of this law was very wide, and included even the smallest appropriation of grain by peasants for personal use. As a result, hundreds of peasants were executed each month under the new law. Still, until October 25, Moscow received only 39% of the demanded grain supplies. When it became clear that the 1932 grain deliveries were not going to meet the expectations of the government, the decreased agricultural output was blamed on the "kulaks", "nationalists", and "Petluravites".\n\nA special commission headed by Vyacheslav Molotov was sent to Ukraine in order to execute the grain contingent.[10] On November 9, a secret decree urged Bolshevik police and repression forces to increase their "effectiveness". Molotov also ordered that if no grain remained in Ukrainian villages, all beets, potatoes, vegetables and any other food were to be confiscated. On December 6, a new regulation was issu


I recently discovered my spouse was having an on-line relationship (says they are just friends), and I feel betrayed.  This is time spent sharing emotions with someone other than your partner, and if you share this type of intimacy with someone for an extended period of time, does it not lead to the desire to take the relationship farther?

There is something missing if he feels he has to chat to someone he isnt close to about intimate details of his life.  In saying that it can be easier to talk to someone you dont know about things that are going on for you, i chat to ppl on the net, and i know its because i sometimes find it hard to talk to my other half, i must admit i do feel guilty about it sometimes, and i use this as a way of letting him know im not happy with something, its sad, i should be able to speak to the person i love, and i do love him a lot, but i try to make sure i dont get into any cyber stuff, i stop that in its tracks,,but even though i chat to ppl about my issues i dont think i could ever meet anyone from the net, as then i would be cheating, and i would rather leave him than cheat on him, why put us both through that pain? Try and make time for each other start with twice a week? Come to an agreement that he cuts back on his internet chat, and take a risk by chatting to you,dont ask, make sure you tell him how this is making you feel,and how you have needs too that you feel are not being met. How would he feel if you spent time chatting to strange men on the internet about you're personal issues?  Short sharp shock sometimes works, try going online, maybe not chatting but theres loads on the net you can do, then when he sees you spending a lot of time online then it might just give him the push to start sharing whats going wrong. Do you actually see what he is talking about?  Why not suggest you getting to know this person too, after all she seems to know as much about him as you do.  I hope things work out for you both, take care.


my nany discovered some blood in her underpants and i am asking her since , but i want to make sure, she is 3 years old and has a lot of imagination and she keeps on answering me with the same name when i ask her if anyone touched her down there

take her to your family doctor they should tell you what happened . it could be from a bike or falling .

Do we need the two extremes to present their best arguements, so we can weigh the information and select the best approach to a given problem?  Or are one or both extremes presenting information which is worthless?

People like John above me here need me to keep them in check and bring them back to reality a little.\n\n:-)\n\nOh, okay ... John makes me think quite a bit, too, and brings up good points often.\n\nRealistically, though, the ones we can do without are the people who scream shrill rhetoric without backing it up. I don't care if someone is liberal or conservative AS LONG AS THEY KNOW WHY. Too many people yell, "Impeach Bush!" because it is the cool thing to do. To many people back the administration without understanding WHY they do.\n\nThat's my two cents ...


Some people answer your question by saying " i don't know!" What kind of stupid answer is that? How does it help the asker?

It is possible to get good answers here, it just happens that you have to sort through all the bad answers.  Some people are jerks, and don't bother to actually answer, they just give you some stupid response.  I wish you luck with future questions though!  Hopefully you can find some good answers!

no, but if you took Tylenol with codeine you will.  My dad failed a test for coke and had to bring the doctor prescription in to prove that he had a legit reason to be taking the codeine (since it's controlled)  He hadn't taken the codeine for over three weeks when he took the drug test, I guess it just stays in your system for a long time.

the guy you loved but ignored him because he was careless with your emotions,TO MAKE HIM GET HIS HOPES UP AGAIN?

As time goes on and we're apart, I think of how things could have been. What we could have said or done to work things through. I would have been more understanding and not so judgmental, more loving and not so hurtful. I would have told you I loved and cherished you more often. That there can never or will ever be another person who I admire like you or who has reached the depths of my heart like you have. I would have told you that I'm so very proud of how far you've come and the things you have accomplished. But how could I find the words or actions to explain to you just how much I love you. It would take a million lifetimes to even comprehend my feelings. I would have told you that you took my breath away the first time I saw you. I would have told you that you made be believe in love the first time you kissed me or stole my heart the moment you uttered those magical words. I would have told you that every time I looked into your eyes I saw my destiny. My one and only. My soul mate, my best friend, my lover, my husband, my inspiration, and the father of my children. I can still close my eyes and feel the softness of your lips against mine and your tender fingers as they caress and explore my body. I would have told you that my knees and entire body would shake every time you looked deep down into me with your eyes. And made me feel like you could read my mind and soul. Life just isn't life without you. I wish that there was a way to make time stop and go back to a time when we where happy. We both know that before we can go back to being one, we need to change things about ourselves in order to make this relationship last. I hope that one day we can find a way to get past this, but until that day comes I want you to know that I will wait for you a lifetime because my love for you is never ending. Don't let our love fade away and our memories be scattered to the winds. I'll wait until you come back into my arms (where you belong). I'll love you from now until death and forever on. And there is nothing or no one that will ever change that.


....Medieval universities used the writings of Aristotle, rather than Plato, as their fundamental curriculum.\nWhy is this Ironic?

Because Aristotle was a student of Plato's, so the fact that the universities used the works of the student, and not his teacher, as a curriculum is ironic, since they are acting as teachers.

No.  It was actually an arm-wrestling match that they bet on.  The physics were just for fun.


i have to study for math, history, spanish, english, art, and biology.

Consider which subjects are your strongest and which subjects are your weakest. Then, study more for your weakest, and some for your strongest subjects. I have more trouble in Math, than in History, so I always study for my Math tests more than for my History tests.

I met a girl online before 2 yrs and we are having 2 manythings in common. she is from another country and i'm ready to go to her but she keep saying her family wont accept to let their daughter go with someone she met online? Tell me what to do please

Well first of all this is coming from someone that is actually marrying someone she met on line in July! Call me crazy, but some people are just meant to meet in different ways than others! We met on line in July met in September he didnt tell his family and my family was like no way! But it just felt right i met him and he was amazing! he moved from Vegas to Utah and we met in september engageged in November and Marrying in July! Go with your heart! Eventually parents will understand once they meet you!


My parents are Ill, I've been taking care of them all my life.  I met a beautiful girl who I would like to marry and start my life wit but, I don't want to regret walking out on my parents.  My girl lives in California, I have been there multiple times and we have been together for a year and more.  I love her alot. \n\nI'm 23 and still at home with my parents, taking care of them. I have a good car, and moderate cash assets. I don't feel like I'm the man I suppose to be still living with them, but I also feel like a better man taking care of them. (because I'm there son.) The insurance want provide healthcare. My chances of moving to California and becoming the man I want to be by going to school are very high.  But the chances of something hapening to my parents and me regretting it are just as high. What would you do? Would you hurt the girl, or take the chance?

Man what a tough choice to make at your age,hell that's tough at any age! Have you thought about moving your parents to Cali with you? Maybe to an assisted living facility close to you so you can be there for them and pursue your dreams. You sound very mature and well put together for a 23 year old and I would hate to see you miss out on great opportunities and the woman you love so much,both are hard to come by. Do you have any other family that could help with you parents? I'm very close with my parents and I can see how hard of a decision this can be.\n \nGood Luck


Erik says that x+2/x-2 is is simplest form, Phil says that x+2/x-2 can be simplified to -1. Which student is correct? Use algebra terminology to defend him. What was the incorrect student's mistake?

x+2/x-2 \n= (x^2 - 2x + 2)/x [BODMAS rule]\nSo Eric is correct.


i need it for this project.U know like when u was in school u had this job describtion folder or something.well im in the 7th grade and i have to get ready for the future.And i wanna be a real estate agent.But i dont know any websites to go to to find out what the requirement to be a real estate agent.Like what u have to learn in order to be a agent.Can u hlp me?

http://stats.bls.gov/oco/ocos120.htm#training\n\nRead that.  It should help.  If that doesn't try google searching a real estate school in your area.  Their website might have some answers for you or you may be able to get an interview with someone there to get the answers you need.


I am 5'8 super sexy and intelligent.I own my own business I am independant,well read very classy.Why do men care so much about a woman's looks?can you love me just the same if I'm in sweat pants.Why does my S/O want me to dress like a barbie 24/7 Don't you men know that it's hard.Be truthful here-how important are looks. percentage wise.1-100%

Not all men are that way. I suggest that you dump this clown, and find someone who will appreciate you for your obvious intelligence & personality. Looks ARE important, I enjoy looking nice for my woman, and appreciate it when she makes the effort to look good for me. But, it is an effort, something special. Not daily life. \nBy the way...sweat pants can be sexy too. It is all attitude.\nA relationship based on what you describe does not bode well for the long term.


We're friends and I don't want to say anything because our friendship means alot to me and messing it up would really make me feel worse.

As him how he feels about other people that have friendships that take it to the next level.\n\nIf he is ok with others then ask him if he ever thought of it with your friendship.\n\nIf you dont take a risk then you can never live life to the fullest.\n\nYou may loose, but if you win, you win big!!!!!!!!!


I was just wondering if anyone out there feels the same way and is maybe goin through the same thing as me....?

You cut yourself because you hurt and the physical pain is far easier to deal with than the mental pain. Trust me. I know, although I don't cut, I do pick....You do need to see someone about this. You can't make it go away on your own and eventually you're going to really hurt yourself...then your secret will be out whether you wanted it to be or not. Go check with your city's human services. They can be very helpful and you can remain incognita if your a minor. You do need help. I did too. The hardest step is the first one.


In my last question, I should of been more specific...I want to TONE my body.  Anyone know an effective (AB ONLY) workout or diet, that gives good results?

Over the past 6 months I’ve researched the internet looking for how to do one thing.  How can I get defined and toned (see my abs).  In other words, how can I lose weight and gain muscle effectively.  What I found is this.  For one, it’s not one goal, its two separate goals.  Before you say it, doing both is possible but your results will be so minor it will take years to see the changes.  I’ve been in a gym for 5 years and the only thing I’ve gained is I’m in good shape!  Stop following workout magazine routines!\n\nAfter learning everything I could, 6 Months ago I decided to focus on each goal for a period of time (this is how to see results up front and each week).  I started with weight loss otherwise known as cutting.  To lose weight you have to create a calorie deficit and once that deficit reaches 3500 you’ll lose 1 pound.  You can do this by cutting your calories or increasing your activity level.  You should do both.  While doing this you also need to drop the “bad” fat!  Your body will burn the newest stored fats first before it gets to the older stored fat, which is covering your abs.  All fats should come from lean meat, nuts, olive oil, and good ole fish!  Your eating habits can stay the same but eating “good” nutritional food is a must.  To find your abs you must do cardio, cardio, cardio, cardio, and more cardio while eating good foods and creating a calorie deficit.  Never go below 1800 calories if you’re a male.  I’m 5’9” age 33 and I cut my calories between 2000 and 2500 while increasing my cardio. A good way to estimate how many calories you eat a day is to log your food on fitday.com!  I did this for 1 month and was shocked how easy it is to eat 3000 in one day!  I created a deficit between 500 and 1000 a day by running, biking, and weight training.  At this point I was looking a little to thin because losing weight will burn muscle at a small rate.  No way around it even with increased protein and glutamine.  That will only slow it a little.  Then I switched to focus on muscle gain!\n\nIn order to gain weight you must create a calorie surplus (500 or more over).  You must weight train hard for 1 hour at least 3 times a week.  You will exhaust stored glucose within 30 minutes of lifting weights so the key is to hit it hard and fast (but take those small breaks in between sets)!  Overtraining is the number one reason people in the gym look like they’ve never been.  \n\nIn conclusion, I focused on one goal at a time.  Right now, I switch every week.  During weight loss I cut calories to 2000-2500 and eat every 2-3 hours and limit fat intake.  For males to see there abs, you must drop below 10% body fat and the only way to do that is cardio, cardio, cardio, and eat right every few hours!!  Since you increase your activity level you will need to eat often to maintain enough energy to do cardio.  You will also lift weights during weight loss.\n\nDuring weight gain, eat the same as you are during weight loss between 2000-2500 a day but use protein muscle gainers to increase your calories to create a surplus of 500 or more a day.  Lift weights and cut the cardio down to no more than 2-3 times that week not to exceed 30 minutes (best done on your off days from lifting).  If you do cardio on the same day you lift, lift first so you use all stored energy for max weight lifts!  When you switch back to weight loss, just stop taking the muscle gainer.  This is how you keep your eating habits the same.  If you would like to contact me to discuss my results and advice, my email address is wgclewis@yahoo.com.  \n\nI would start with weight loss for 2 months before doing the switch every week. It’s best to lower your body fat before trying to gain muscle.  In short the only way to see your abs is to drop your body fat that’s covering them.  Fat will come off in reverse of how it was put on.  For males fat is stored in the love handles and midsections first and then through out the whole bod

my friend is going out with a guy form an other school and one of her cuzins friend said he saw her boyfriend kissing + holding hands with an other girl should she believe her cuzins friend!!!!

Rumors are extremely dubious and I would not take their word for it. It could have been someone who looked like him, a rumor by someone who has a crush on him, who is jealous,... I would just try to be aware of what your friend says about him, and if any warning signals of cheating go off, then you might want to have her talk to him about it.


Yes. This includes: Power Point, Access, Excel, Publisher and InfoPath.


What is ur openion on the reservation in government jobs and education  based on castacism  in  india..will it not affect to the people who r endevouring to get these jobs n seats of universities.and  a reservd candidate can be compared with a person who get the oppertunity by his hard work?

I don't agree with this policy.I believe it's unjust to meritorious students.Instead I feel backward caste students should be provided training so that they can compete with other students.This is better than spoon-feeeding them by providing quotas.


A friend was diagnosed with brain cancer, and she was told that whe will only have a few weeks to live.  Right now, she is still functioning fairly well.  What will happen over the next two weeks?  She has a lot of pain in her head, and her speech is slurred.  What else should I expect to see?

As the cancer grows, the pressure it places on surrounding structures within the brain increases. This will increase the severity of the symptoms. Depending on the type of cancer it is (whether it's primary or a metastasis), the growth rate will vary. Obviously, faster growing cancers will cause the symptoms your friend is suffering from to increase in severity rather rapidly. Conversely, if the tumor is a slower growing one, your friend can live a relatively functional life for a long period of time.\n\nTherefore what you can expect to see in your friend can be quite variable. Generally speaking, if untreated, her current symptoms will worsen, and new symptoms may appear such as seizures, difficulty walking, loss of vision, memory loss, and personality changes. The usual cause of death in a patient with brain cancer would be respiratory failure.\n\nWith more information, such as the type of cancer (if known), when it was diagnosed, and how the symptoms have progressed over time, I can provide you with a more specific answer.


It's a spanish song! I think it belongs in the Ballad genre but I'm not too sure. I was told the woman that sings it made the song for her husband that drowned. It basically says he got on a boat and drowned in the ocean and all I can remember are the last words " a la bahia " I've been searching for -years- to no avail.

Im not sure if this is the same song you are thinking because I don't see anything like "a la bahia" but it is the same story you are talking about.  Amor Eterno...by...Rocio Durcal.

Do you think southerners are racists?  Not very very racist...but in a little way?

Unfortunately, there are many narrow minded, intolerant, racist people in the south and everywhere else in the US. I do think that racism is a little more common in the south. I for one am a southerner and it makes me sick to hear nasty misconceptions about people just because they are a different race, different religion, or live a different lifestyle. I wish more people had a "live and let live" attitude. We'd all be better off.


i grew up in a baptist background and i am doing a bible study on seventh day adventist are they a cult

Depends on what your definition of "cult" is. Seventh-Day Adventists definitely consider themselves Christian, but they do have some very unique teachings and Biblical interpretations that no other Christian Church has. If you hold very specific beliefs about what is the "proper" or "true" definition of Christianity, you might very well \ndefine SDAs as a cult--i.e., they likely won't conform to your belief system.\n\nMy definition of a cult is based on the intensity of its indoctrination, strength of the hold it has on its adherents, and to what degree it literally controls every aspect of its members lives. Although I was fairly well indoctrinated while growing up SDA, and still have some fairly strong issues about it, I don't consider it a cult. I cannot agree with the theology of SDAs in particular, nor traditional Christianity in general, so I left the church as soon as I was grown. There was no particular difficulty in doing this--merely relief. For those people who have difficulty leaving, it is often because of the loss of identity and friends, not because of any "cultish" hold the church has on them.\n\nJust as with any other evangelical Christian denomination, the SDAs hold that their particular belief system is the only true way to practice Christianity. They are very inflexible when it comes to their doctrine, but there is currently much discussion and dissent going on, despite efforts from the church headquarters to discourage this.\n\nIf you would like to learn more about this question of "SDAs--cult or not", try going to the Former Adventist Friendship Forum at \n\nhttp://64.227.85.187/cgi-bin/discus/discus.cgi\n \nJust click on "discussion." This is a very hot topic right now with the former SDAs. Or try this link\n\nhttp://www.christiandiscussionforums.org/v/forumdisplay.php?f=31\n\nfor discussions by current SDAs.
