I say... Clinton was a retard and shouldn't have did what he did... it was his fault, on his shoulders... not the "conservative media" or "Bush Sr."\n\nEverything can't be the fault of the media or Clinton... some things may have been, but not everything that you say it is... so do Republican's actually take any responsibiility for anything done in this administration... there have obviously been foul-ups... but every Republican I know alway deflects any guilt... and that annoys me more than any of it...\n\nI say... be a man and own up to it when you mess up... Democrat or Republican...

As A Republican\nYes there is a lot that is Bushs fault.  The large deficit.  Medicare.  Our failing school systems.  However, you must look at the state govs.  My state is run by a Democrat.  She ran deeper into debt in her first month or two in office than Bush did.  So Michigans falling apart also at the hands of Granholm.  One thing that really annoys me about Bush although I stand behind him on his decisions is the fact that he dresses and talks like a cowboy.  Yet if you compare him to the Cowboy Code written by Gene Autry he is not and will not be a Cowboy in my eyes in this lifetime.


I know it is something that causes deformities in frogs' legs, but I need to know how it does and what it is exactly.

I believe my lenses are plastic. I  have tried one of those microfiber clothes and it gets rid of all smuges but it  tends to leave behind a lot of dust and lint. I bought a cleaning solution spray from walmart and it helps eleminate some of that  but  it doesn't eliminate all of it. Is there anything better  I can use to clean my glasses with?

Ordinary glass cleaner.  When I purchased my glasses, that is what the doctor told me.


Being young I find it hard. \nEverybody goes to parties, where there is drinking, drugs and sex.I used to go to those parties, once I became a Christian I noticed that I did not want to go to those parties as much.But I dont want to miss out on my life completely. I guess I should just find some christian friends.

Being Christian unfortunately does not stop you from being sinful.  I think just tryint to live the life you want to have, but also being a good example to others is enough.\n\nEveryone is sinful, Christian or not, that is why Jesus died on the cross!

If you had to pick between Shaq and Kobe in their primes(Kobe may not have hit his prime yet), who would it be?

I would pick Shaq because you can get more out of him. Blocks, double digit points, contest dunks, layups, and shots in the paint. He's a big help defensively. When he's backing down and draws the double team he can kick it out to the outside shooter. \n\nAnd besides who can stop Shaq. I mean really, 7'1 325 pounds. He's like the 2nd best Center in the NBA and one of the best of all times.


I get Dejavu a lot.  I cant say I get it very often but I get it atleast once a month.

Deja Vu is scary...but this is what people say...that our life is already planned out and we're just living through it...and because it's planned out and everything has happened before...we're just passing through but Deja Vu is us remembering the certain action has already happened

three students vounteer for a litter collecting competion. they shared their prize money of L44 in the ratio of liter they collected. Amy collected four tims as much as Beatrice and Colin collected half as much as Beatrice.\nwrite the ratio using : notation and work out how much each student recieve.\n\nplease solve it and give me the answer thank you so much!

Your information is given in terms of how much Beatrice collected, so let her amount = b.  Then Amy collected four times as much, or 4b and Colin collected half as much, or b/2.  If b=1, then your ratio would be 4:1:1/2 and to get rid of the fraction in the ratio you can multiply them all by 2 and get 8:2:1\n\nNow to solve how much each person got, Amy + Beatrice + Colin = 44 and you need to weight it for how much each collected.  Remember that Amy = 4b and Colin=b/2\n\n4b + b + b/2 = 44 --- again, multiply through by 2 to get rid of the fraction\n8b + 2b + b = 88\n11b = 88\nb = 8\n\nSo Beatrice earned 8.  Amy was 4b, so Amy earned 32; Colin was b/2 so he earned 4.  Check and make sure that 8+32+4=44.

Anne's education was extremely broad and varied. Cite five different items which prove this. Help!

Peter and Anne studied together in the attic, and at the same time, she drew, spoke different languages, and her father taught her everything he knew.  She was also a normal teenager that loved art and music, she just never got a chance to express herself fully except in her diary


Be it in a family or any other relationships men are mostly of closed type.they show their love in different ways but not directly. Why do u think it is so.

men aren't as open with their feelings because we weren't created that way. in the 40's men weren't wearring diamond rings in their ears and pink shirts. some would sat because of the world has become more feminine and some would say people are freely expressing themselves. gay and bi people run the countries states so you do the math on that. when it comes to men expressing themselves it's alot of pressure from other men calling them weak and soft not to mention a bit*h azz *igga. most importantly men are afraid of being hurt more than women are but a humble mature true woman can help a man grow with her and into her which will aloow him to freely express himself without the fear of being hurt or taken for granted.


I've heard soy milk will deplete the testosterone in men.\nMaybe I spelled it wrong, if so correct me.

Soy in large amounts can reduce your testosterone levels. Drinking soy milk is not going to reduce your testosterone levels at all. Soy has been shown, in some cases (not all), to increase estrogen levels, but only at high amounts of consumption. So if you're a bodybuilder and your primary source of protein is soy, then you'll experience the withdrawl of testosterone (given that you're consuming 100g+ of soy protein a day). One glass of soy milk has about 5-6g of soy protein in it, which will hardly have any effect on you. If you are taking soy supplements, limit the intake of them and consume other protein supplements like whey or caseinate with soy.


well was i was younger i was kinda scared but i fdont know if i am anymore is it normal is it okay to be nervous or scared ru?

When I was younger, I was terrified of Heaven. Actually, it wasn't the concept of Heaven that bothered me; it was the thought of eternity. My child's mind tried to comprehend what that would be like, to go on forever without end. What would we do? Wouldn't we get bored? Isn't there SOME kind of ending to it all? Questions like these rattled through my head over and over again. I was unable to completely grasp the concept of eternity, and my inability to do that upset me greatly.\n\nNow that I am older, I am no longer afraid of Heaven or eternity. That isn't to say that I now understand either one of them; eternity is still a bit too big a concept for me (or any human, I think) to truly grasp. Why I am no longer afraid is that I have learned to trust God over myself. Even if I don't understand eternity, God does, and He will know how to run it just fine. With faith in His wisdom, I know that eternity will be something to look forward to, not something to fear.

I hear someone saying that Jesus died on the cross and thus saved us from sin. But, I don't understand. So, please, without just reciting words verbatiom some dogma you have handy tell me:\n\n1. how does the physical act of crucifixion save us from sin? As far as I can tell, just being killed on a Cross only results in being killed on a cross. Did Jesus use his dead-time to strike a bargain for us?\n\n2. if he died for our sins, is this just an old-fashioned way of saying that our sin killed him (and if so, which one?)\n\n3. If Jesus saved us from sin, isn't that a get-out-of-jail card? Theoretically we shouldn't have to worry about the repercussions of sin, because it's all paid for\n\nwell, you know, just thinking out loud. Usual rules apply: no dogma, no smug athiest answers. I hate smug atheists. thanks.

Mainstream Christianity has always maintained that god's son died on a cross to save people from their sin. But other Christians rejected this and said that it is not his death that can accomplish anything, but rather his life and teaching. I agree with the latter (though it is very unorthodox and wonderfully heretical). And I agree with your thinking and I cannot see how the death of a man on a cross can possibly achieve anything. Such primitive practices go back to when people believed that god can't do anything without seeing blood ("without the shedding of blood there can be no remission of sin").


honestly....why do you care what others think?


How do you show real love to your girl?I mean you really love her with your whole heart.

First share your feelings, ideas, thoughts, lifestyle with her...try to be a good friend of her and then tell her that You Love Her very much


Is it simply due to the Catholic and Protestant church's discreditation of "sacred texts of salvation" written over 1800 years after Jesus' death?\n\nWhy were the cannonical gospels and epistles enough for Paul and the Apostles for spreading Christian news, awareness and salvation but NOT sufficient for man post-1886 (the year Charles Taze Russel started writing "Studies in the Scriptures")?\n\nAnd finally, if the Jehovah's Witness sect of Christianity was in fact founded by a man who felt as though the Bible had been tainted (or rendered all-but irrelevent) during the years after the epistles by the heirarchy of the Catholic Church along with the translation of the Cannon for Protestants... how can they be so sure that their own "Religion Corporation" (which strayed from the teachings of Russell as soon as his first successor - Joseph Franklin Rutherford) is still genuine?\n\nAnd don't tell me to go to watchtower.org, thank you.

We Jehovah's Witnesses do not discredit all Christian Faiths, they discredit themselves. \n\nIf you compare their teachings and their behavior and practices against the light of the Bible you will see the CLEAR DIFFERENCE between a real christian and a false one.\n\nTrue Christians Then and Now\n\nChristians of the first century at times had different opinions about things. For example, speaking of those in Corinth, the apostle Paul said: "Disclosure was made to me about you, my brothers, by those of the house of Chloe, that dissensions exist among you. What I mean is this, that each one of you says: 'I belong to Paul,' 'But I to Apollos,' 'But I to Cephas,' 'But I to Christ.'"—1 Corinthians 1:11, 12.\n\nDid Paul view these differences as of little significance? Was each individual simply following his own path to salvation? Far from it! Paul admonished: "I exhort you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that you should all speak in agreement, and that there should not be divisions among you, but that you may be fitly united in the same mind and in the same line of thought."—1 Corinthians 1:10.\n\nOf course, unity of belief cannot be achieved by coercion. It is achieved only when individuals carefully investigate matters and arrive at and accept the same conclusions. Thus, a personal study of God's Word and an honest desire to apply what is learned are essential steps to enjoy the kind of unity that Paul spoke of. Can such unity be found? As we have seen, God has long dealt with his people as a group. Is it possible to identify that group today?\n\nIf you want to know more view the article below.\n\nIF you want answers you have to seek them with an open mind and heart, and not for argument sake.

My Husband and I are being threatened by someone we know via our cell phone. We have called the police and have been told that there is nothing they can do,until he actually "acts" on those threats. I am having a hard time believing this, I am originally from Ohio where they don't take harassment so lightly. Basically they are telling me that this person either has to beat me or my husband up or worse murder us before they will do anything. Any suggestions?

Do you know who this person is.  \n\nIf you do.  \n\nGo to a judge, request a restraining order.  Tell the judge you have been threatened by this person, you family, hubby, kids, the dog,  have all been threatened.  Tell the Judge you fear for your life. CRY.  You dont have to tell the truth, make things up and lace it with the truth.  \n\nYou will get the order and that person willbe served by the county sherriff where they live in FL.  They will be enjoined against contacting you in any way and against being in physical proximity to you at a set distance.  YOu have the same restrictions on you.  If they violate that order they can be arrested.  Screen your calls with an answering machine, record his calls, if you think he might come arouned have a video camera.  \n\nOver the top but legal:  Keep a gun in your home, or mace, or get a mean dog.  If he tries to come in your house - defend yourself and call the police.  If he calls you, comes near you, writes you a note, call the police.  \n\nIm in FL.  tell me where you are and ill solve your problem for a small fee (hehehehe, just kidding)

What rights do heirs have to know the contents of a Will that names them as heir?  What is the reasonable timetable for an heir to have the Will read/sent to them?

This is controlled by state statute; it's different for every state.  Usually the will will list an executor who will handle the distributions in the will.  It can often take over a month to get around to reading the will to the heirs, though there's no reason for it to take so long.  It frequently take MUCH longer-up to 3-9 months--to "probate" a will through the court process.\n\nIf you're concerned, you should call the 'clerk of court' in the state and county where your relative died.  They will adivse you on local procedure.

Why is it that when you ask a serious question you get 3 answers,but when you ask a silly question you get 50.

Because deep thought actually involves effort.


anyone else, can't stand there mother-in-law and vice versa? it's actually my husband's step-mother I can't stand, and she doesn't like me either. Has always thought he should be with his First wife, and is always up his first wife's ass.  It's all I ever hear about, and it drives me crazy!!

The best way to drive her crazy is to stay with your husband and be the best damn wife you can be.\n\n\n\nI could not stand my first mother-in-law.  She was always sticking her nose in our business.


Robin hop along the ground and seem to stop and listen, then dig out a worm. Do they hear them? Some people say that they feel movements with their feet and in that way find the worm.

Good question. Not hearing; sight. They seem to be hearing movement, but birds go by sight. I thought the same thing.


I am a huge fan. This question was a no brainer.


Andruw Jones for Johnny Damon & Josh Beckett.

I'm going to go against that grain here and say that unless you need steals - don't do it. Let’s start off with Beckett- he is now 3-1 with a 4.50 ERA, 1.25 WHIP after the Tribe kicked the snot out of him the other night. Everybody knows that Beckett, the 2003 World Series MVP, has talent. The question, as always, is his durability. He'll be just 26 in May and already has 100 starts in the bigs. BUT he's never thrown more than 200 innings or made 30 starts in a season. What happens when his first blister pops up -- on the front pages -- in Boston? How will he handle the heat? How will he get his road ERA (4.25 since 2004) down? How will he handle a full season with the DH? Not this well, that's for sure.\n\nSo...now you're talking Jones for Damon. Andruw is the back bone of the Braves lineup and he has had an awesome April (.284 8HR 23RBI's 17 runs). Project that out and he's looking at a 45+HR and a 100+RBI season. Damon on the other had has a slower start (.275 1HR 10RBI 16 runs). He's gonna have to find a way to settle down in NYC (which he may do just fine) but how far back in the standings will you be when he does?\n\nStick with Jones, go out and look at Ryan Freel (Cincinnati) for steals and grab whatever pitcher is hot on your waiver wire.

I love Bob Saget! Who thinks he's funny?

He directed Dirty Work and that movie is hilarious. I liked him when I was a kid on Full House and Americas Funniest Home videos, but I always knew he was cheesy. Sometimes you need cheesy and sometimes you dont. This is why i like Full House AND Dirty Work.


i'm feeling so down right now. i don't know why. my life is going good but i have a bad feeling inside. what should i do?

I'm feeling really down right now too but my life isn't going good at all so that's my reason. As for you, try doing something that you like. Think about things that make you happy and make you smile. Everybody has moments when they are down. I'm sure yours will pass soon. Maybe you just need to clear your mind and get some rest and relaxation. I hope you feel better.

Oh Boy, Where do I begin?  Well, I have been seeing this guy for 3 months, yes, I know it's not long.  You see, I have two kids from a previous marriage who are still very young.  One is 2 and the other is 9 months.  The guy I am seeing has no kids.  His parents have told him to stop seeing me because of our families history together.  Let's just put it this way...they don't get along because of what happened between the two families almost 20 years ago.  I'm not sure what to do.  I know this weighs heavy on him because he is torn on what to do.  He also told me that if we ever got married, that they would never like me because of what happened to them.  Althought what happened has nothing to do with our relationship, it has a lot to do with the outcome of it.  What do I do?  I want them to except me for who I am.  They can't see past their angry still after all these years.  If they only new how I felt about their son.  How I would do anything for him, sacrifice, and fight for him.

Well you could write them a letter about how you feel and leave it at that! And then go on with your plans together. They will either learn to live with their son's decision or they won't.\n\nThe parents aren't the ones in this relationship and if you both love each other, do what you need to do to be together. DON'T NOT be  together because of them. they are not in this relationship you both are, and you two should be happy. They'll get over it, it may take years, but at least you won't have to worry about your mother-in-law butting into your business, right off the bat.


No Christians please. I don't trust your brainwashed judgement.

People who are possessed are under the influence of evil and they do what is in that nature - it isn't always easy to recognize - many possessed people are used as instigators - they come in as a friend but their real goal is to create trouble. And then there are possessed people who act out wildly and are just plain scary. Possession can last a short period of time or for a long period of time... When I saw a girl many years ago and she was in a wild rage she spoke like one of those demons you hear in the movie "The Omen" - she was very strong during this and a half dozen men were trying to hold her down so no one would be hurt - it took all their strength to keep her from attacking people! It was  very scary to hear and see someone so small being able to exert such strength and the hissing sounds were unbelievable! This lasted for 15 min. or so...then she was taken away from the theater....what happened to her after that I don't know...\n I have heard of people who are locked away in insane asylums that appear to be possessed by demon(s) and they have to be kept restrained all the times.\nSince you don't like the Christian way - I guess what others can do is keep them safe from harming others (or themselves)  and that seems to require some sort of facility to house them or at least some strong people to restrain them if they are acting wildly... you could give money to such causes or work for a facility that deals with such people.


How do you deal with it without being mean?

Last month a dear close friend of mine passed aways. During that time Alcohol seem to be the answer I needed to forget the lose. Mental Lapse on my part and boom DUI. It is uncharacteristic of me and I don't want to affect me later on the road. It doesn't help that I am in the service as well. My life seem such a shabble right now and I can't even deal with interaction with others. \nIt's been almost 2 months and time has not made it better. I still feel depress and questioning if I do need counseling or not. I stop drinking since the incident and seeking help might jepordize my military career. \nMy mind is chaos and I don't know what to do.\nAny information in San Diego that can be useful, referral?

The link below might help, but if you use your military insurance to pay for treatment, the military will know and may have access to the records.  Counseling of life issues typically doesn't destroy military careers, but destructive behaviour will.  \n\nGood for you for considering seeking help and I wish you nothing but success with it!


I've been "in love with him for 5 years. I want him, and I think he wants me, too, but am not sure. He looks at me sometimes, but I am not sure. Please give me advice on what to do on this. I am so confused on what to do! I've written him a few emails and letters, and we've been classmates since kindergarten. He's such a wonderful guy. What do I do? Please-someone-give advice to me, please! I am so confused and want to know what to do, but I'm so scared. Please help.

I feel u, im in the same position but its only 3 yrs not 5 ;p well i told him abt 4 months ago that i have feelings (he's my best friend btw) and that i need 2 take a distance to get over him and we stayed like that 4 a month and it didnt work...try 2 get urself involved with other ppl, convince urself that u like some1 else...(i have no idea why am I giving advice) just try 2 get urself 2 think of some1 else


if its possible to answer over the computer this is the hardest thingy ever!

x^2 < 4, swap the < for a = for a sec.  That gives you x^2 = 4, and x = +/- 2.  So on a number line, draw an open circle at -2 and 2 (open circle because the original problem was < and not <=).  Now comes the logical part - if you plug in something to the far left of -2, does it satisfy your original equation?  Nope.  How about far right of 2?  Nope again.  What about between -2 and 2?  Yep.  So fill in or darken the line between the open circles.

I would also like to know any special "tricks of the trade" as to how to get a camera in there.....

You could pack a small camera in a lunch bag and bury it in a back pack - they really don't dig too deep.  The problem is being caught with it.  They will take it if they see it.\n\nDon't stay in one place the whole day.  Get the tee times and find out who you want to see.  Then pick out 3-4 holes to camp out on to watch your favorites.  I like setting up at a couple par 3's and a par 5.  It's a must to spend some time on the 18th to watch the guys finish.  Try to get to your spot 30-45 minutes before you think the pro's will show up - you still might have to stand.\n\nAlso try to get there early and check out the range.  Don't remember if they still allow you to watch, but watching how the pro's warm up is amazing, especially Vijay & Sergio.

what  i mean is that he sleeps around with men but has a girlfriend  refuses to admit that he is either homosexual or bisexual and hides the fact that he sleeps with men from you

you really don't deserve someone like that..l would move on and find my self someone else if l were you.


due to what human instinct does the want to have children stem from

human beings have a natural instinct to survive to become imortal is man's greatest desire that's why people try to leave their mark in this world and having children is a way of continuing onesself


I know Norway has the best programs, but I want to go to Germany. Any other places?

Do you want to study in Europe or in the US?  Harvard and a lot more states in the US offers one.  In Europe, I know that London School of Hygien and Tropical Medicine offers a good program also.  I also saw one program at University of Coppenhagen.  Good luck.


actually I have no solid ideas what to do with my spare time after retiting, do you encourage me to retire?

Unless you have some kind of illness you should probably try to work at least another 5-10 years.You are probably unchallenged at what you are doing now .If you can afford to think of retiring why not instead think of something that you have always wanted to do not necessarily for the money and go for it.\n\nThe best way to suceed is to take what you love and offer it to others.

Why are Iraqi people being killed for oil? Any justification for that?

While I don't particularly care for conservative ideology, this is one of the mindless criticisms that simply does not hold water. It makes no sense if you look at things realistically.\n\nThis administration, especially when the US first invaded Iraq, was top-heavy with the same people who under President Reagan had convinced us that Saddam Hussein was our best friend in the Middle East. Second, just look at what has happened with Lybia, who was already in the process of settling the monetary claims from the families of the Lockerbee mass murder. Simply by SAYING that Lybia would no longer pursue nuclear weapons, President Khadaffi has been able to have all economic sanctions lifted and US investment is now recommended.\n\nIf the spin doctors of this administration can pretend that Khadaffi (who has murdered Americans while not at war) is a good guy, they could certainly have painted Hussein (who has not murdered Americans while not at war) as the new George Washington and Daniel Boone all rolled into one. The American people would have gladly accepted the idea that Hussein had mended his ways, and that we could stop our sanctions which were hurting everyone except the Baath Party. President Bush's oil friends would have been much happier simply buying discounted oil from Hussein (who would be desperate for cash and still mad at OPEC for stabbing him in the back in 1991) and selling it to the US consumer at full price.\n\nCriticize conservatives all you want, supply side economics is turning the US into a third world country, but try to be realistic about it!


I'm writing a small report on racial profiling and I'm looking for any information that will pertain to any police testimony that racial profiling was used as part of the arrest. I know not too many policeman will admit to this but I'm just curious to see if any would admit this.

i asked some friends and they said some police check harder on other people than some. theyt have never arrested someone just because of race.


I was wondering if it is possible for someone who is 1/8 Native American to get registered and how would they go about doing so?

I'm 3/4 Ojibwe tribe, 1/4 French Canadian.  I've never been registered, though I've been requested to do so.\nMy reason...I want to teach my daughter to make her own way in this world, not to rely on any government entity, solely based on her heritage.\nOur wars were fought, and lost.  To the victor go the spoils.\n\nThat being said, when my daughter and I attend baseball games, and they sing the National Anthem, I still get tears in my eyes, because I can feel how Francis Scott Key felt when he penned those immortal words.\nI take pride in America.  I wouldn't live anywhere else on this planet.\n\nAmerican Indians can still practice their tribe's religious beliefs without accepting government money.  Isn't that what "independence" is supposed to be all about?\n\np.s. If you still want to register, check with your local Bureau of Indian Affairs Office.


I think they beat and cover up their women unnecessarily.


why cant the blacks stop saying we are owing them something .  we fought for them and alot of men died for it and  alot of north south and in between lost alot to do it  just like the  fight to  save  the rest of the injustices  please stop trying to blame me for something  we paid a price for with alot of lives lost that werent thanked  and  still are dead and  not heard we tryed to help but its never enough i dont live in the south stop saying everyone white  owes you  a living were struggling too and  as  far as i see it  your  getting  more help than me for it  still i was raped  by a bunch of black guys in school who blamed me for  thier being poor  but  because i was white they  figured i was but i wore second hand cloths lived in a poor side too  but was able to go to school and wanted to learn and be friendly i was picked out and  blamed for something that happened long ago  im still damaged inside from it  luckily with help i had 2 kids and couldnt have more  because of it

It's people like you that make me not want to visit Yahoo answers. You're sick? No I'm sick of people categorizing all black people. I go out and work every single day and don't ask no one to support me and my children. I only ask to be treated with dignity and respect just like everyone else. White people did not lose their lives for 400 years bieng a slave and continue to lose their lives for being who they are and I'm not even counting the lives we lost on the boats getting here and no one fought for us on the boat. I am not dismissing any participation of white people in the fight for rights of black people it is greatly appreciated but the numbers of those who died are mostly black people. If your people and family were killed just because of their race, would it be easy to swallow and forget? You have been a victim yourself and I would never tell you to forget about it and treat it as something small. I don't complain and ask no one for nothing! Racism still exists and it did not happen a long time ago. Rosewood, Segregation, not having the right to vote, lynching, and The Tuskegee Experiment are examples. I am not on welfare and I don't ask for handouts so stop insulting me! For Jason aka J, we read history books while in school everyday, year after year, about white people contributions to this country. It is not just condensed in a month. We are always reminded of it in history class and how black people were percieved and treated in this country. Don't let the actions of some distort your perception of all.


does anyone know what quantom dots are and what theyre used for?

Quantum dots are small devices that contain a tiny droplet of free electrons. They are fabricated in semiconductor materials and have typical dimensions between nanometres to a few microns


I will be on Lake Erie in a 19.5 foot boat.

A safe minimum anchor rode length in normal weather conditions is a 7 to 1 (rode length to depth) ratio, or 5 to 1 for an all chain rode. "Depth" in this case is the actual depth of the water at high tide, plus the height of the anchor hawser above the water's surface. (Scope = [water depth + hawser height] X 7). So if high water is 20 ft. deep, and your bow roller is 5 ft. above the water, you'll need to use at least 175 ft. (25 ft. X 7) of line-plus-chain anchor rode to anchor. It's a good idea to have your anchor rodes marked off in ten- or twenty-foot increments to facilitate reading rode length as you feed it out. If you anticipate a blow, a ten to one scope isn't too much to pay out. To the extent that harbor space permits, the heavy weather rule is the more scope the better! Remember that putting out too little scope is one of the most common mistakes skippers make when anchoring. Later, they wonder why their boat dragged up onto a lee shore during a squall!

Why does it make my computer crash? How come it won't pop up when I click on the icon? Is there a "bug" with the yahoo messenger? It used to work before with the old version.

better install an older version by going to official yahoo site..coz the newer versions r still under work..beta actually means that..so one should not install beta version of any software ..wait untill beta is gone n the bugs r fixed..


I'm dating a girl who is super sweet and adorable but has some insecurity problems even though she's beautiful and well spoken. I got tickets to her favorite artist in a few weeks and I want to surprise her by showing up at the venue without letting on the details. When I told her I had a surprise for her she said she won't go without knowing the full details. Obviously trust is a factor here but what can I do to still pull off a night she'll remember?

Just don't let her know what day the surprise is on ... and tell her that things didnt work out well for ur surprise & that it'll have to be planned out better, but when its planned out completely you'll tell her. Well .. the night of the concert (or whatever) just out of no where .. ask her to go to the store w/ u or something & just drive there or drive to the store & ask her to get in the glovebox for ur wallet or something ... have the tickets in there w/ a bow around them ... & tell her whats up!

Why do people say that America is a Christian nation but not everyone is a Christian.\n\nAnother thing why do politician think America was founded by God they are nuts

Because christians are all insane and they think they are the only right ones, and the only ones that should exist.


Single women with kids (for whatever reason).  How is dating for you compared to when you didn't have children?  Be honest, do you go on the "down low" when dating. or are you upfront?

I have dated several times since I started having children. My first priority is my family. I would never chose a man over them so I am always honest from the beginning that they come first and are most important.\nNo man meets my family until I am comfortable with him and feel like it is the right fit. We have been through enough no reason for them to get attached to someone just to be hurt again. Sure of course something may happen the relationship doesnt work out. But I need to be comfortable in it before my baby meets the man.\nSo the man always knows about them...they do not know about him right away.\nThe only REAL difference I see in dating is I can not just up and go out. I very rarely leave my children with a sitter (ummmmm....ummmmm I remember once and that was a GOOD friend otherwise the only couple of other times its been family) so its not like I can just plan a hot Friday evening out Friday morning.\nMost guys are accepting and even love that I have a family and am very family orientated


To help you understand i work with steel pipes coating the threads with phosphate to stop them rusting as they are used in the exploration of oil under the north sea in the uk, this is a new position for me and i have  voiced my concerns to the company as regards to the wearing of the appropriate safety wear but unfortunately it seems to fall on deaf ears, if i complain i risk losing my job and if i continue i risk losing my mind with the itchyness, i have tried various creams but with no success, this facial sauna is my last resort before going to the doctor

i want to know if any thing has been done to enhace agricultural development in nigeria.if governmemnt has thought or brought any policies into place that will improve all the sectors of agriculture(FORESTRY AND WILDLIFE,FISHERIES,AGRONOMY ANIMAL SCIENCE,AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS AND EXTENSION)in terms of policies,laws e.t.c.if any advancement has actually taken place since the independence till this time.if for sure we can say that nigeria is really moving forward,stagnant or going backwards

The following strategies have been employed by successive governments:\n1.  Subsidised Fertilser.\n2.  Construction of silos\n3.  Loans for Mechanised Agriculture.\n4.  Establishment of the Nigeran Agricultural Cooperative Bank.\n5.  Funding of various research projects and institutes such as IAR, NAERLS, NAPRI etc


is their really such a thing as love or do people just make it up??

Do you believe in happiness? How about trust? Of course there is such an emotion as love. Read your bible.If you are asking this question then you obviously have been hurt. Honey theres someone for everyone and half the fun is looking for the right person to love. The other half is realizing that your special someone is someone who will make you feel like a special gift to be cherished till you die.


I will never believe that the passengers who overpowered the highjackers (there was no gun on board)weren't successful! There were numerous eyewitnesses who say there was a military plane flying away after the plane went down? What do YOU think? \n\nhttp://www.infowars.com/articles/world/canada_missle_reject_perplexes_us.htm

Only an idiot would believe that it wasn't shot down! Only those who do not follow the news would beleive its a conspiracy theory when it is already documented fact That America did shoot down Flight 93. Why can't you people believe that what you consider a conspiracy theory may actually be the conpiracy truth?\n\n Amyone who says it is a stupid question are in fact showing their own ignorance and the fact that they ar part of the ignorant sheeple that follow every order given by the government. After all the government are people just like you next door neighbor, and if you can believe your neighbor is capable of committing a crime then why arn't government people able to since they are simply people like you and me?\n\n After all, the Bush cabal is the most corrupt government in history. More people in this administration have been charged and convicted than any administration and several more charged today on 4-07-06. Today it was also mentioned in the  news that it was George Bush who leaked the secret agent Valeri Plames name and exposed her causing the death of thousands of Amreican agents. That is a crime and is punishable in America as treason against America. This should kick off a viceous battle to impeach this treasonous man and have him convicted in court for treason against America and spend the rest of his life in Jail or be executed such as many others have been in the past.This man is dangerous and a traitor to the United States of America\n\nWhy do you think that last week he (BUSH)  visited  Mexixo's President Vincenti Fox and one week after Bush's return America was invaded by millions of Mexicans. Could President Fox be helping Bush to divert attention away from his impeachable crime of exposeing CIA names by directing millions of Mexicans to converge upon America thusly causeing turmoil and allowing Bush to implimet the greater parts of the Patriot Act and in the name of national security, lock down the US, open detention camps, and suspend the constitution and also suspend the comming elections thusly making BUSH the dictator for many , many years to come? This is all in the New Patriot Act and can and will be done if we Americans allow him to do it. This whole Mexican charade is a set up in order to impliment the police state in order to make BUSH the dictator of America. It happened once and it can happen again! \n  \nAnd for those of you who believe questioning the offical story of flight 93 is somehow an insult to the families,you could never be more wrong. First it is an insult to the families to not want to know the truth. Second, even the families don't believe the official story so who are you to speak for the famlies desire to know the truth? Why do you blatantly beleive what the government tells you without desiring to know the whole truth? Ahhhhh too many sheep in the world, so blind, so ignorant, so easily fooled. No wonder our government can get away with anything before our very eyes. The dumbing down of Amreica has been a success when the people of America refuse to question the governments offical story when it is shakey at least,\n\n  Doanld Rumsfield hinself mentioned on national TV that America did in fact shoot down flight 93\n\n"Rumsfeld says 9-11 plane 'shot down' in Pennsylvania "\n\n  "WASHINGTON – Ever since Sept. 11, 2001, there have been questions about Flight 93, the ill-fated plane that crashed in the rural fields of Pennsylvania. \n\nThe official story has been that passengers on the United Airlines flight rushed the hijackers in an effort to prevent them from crashing the plane into a strategic target – possibly the U.S. Capitol. \n\nDuring his surprise Christmas Eve trip to Iraq, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld referred to the flight being shot down – "\nhttp://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=42112\n\n\n   FLIGHT 93 SHOT DOWN\n\nEyewitness Reports at Odds With Official Scenario\n\nSome local residents here


I keep getting this weird bump on the inside of my lower lip. It looks sort of like a small blister, it doesnt get very big, and after about a day it pops without really any pain. Then about a week later it will come back in the same spot. I dont have them anywhere else in my mouth. I looked up canker and cold sores and even oral cancer and it didnt seem to be any of those. Its getting kinda annoying, does anybody have any clue what it could be?

it sounds like a mucocele, which is essentially a blocked salivary duct. if it continues to recur you will probably get referred to an oral surgeon for excision. its mostly likely no big deal, they may biopsy it just to rule out anything. are you young? a mucocele is more common in young people, and mostly common on the inside of the lower lip as yours states.


I firmly believe that we are not alone in this existance.  Humans have been known to produce a genius here and there in the past.  Ever notice that not too many genius' have emerged lately.  Not to discredit human achievements, but I wonder how much of our technology has come from outside (alien) intelligence?  What do you think?

If anything, there are probably more geniuses being created now than ever before.  It is just that to be "discovered", being a genius is not enough.  One has to be properly educated in the right environment and produce the right type of discovery to be noticed.\n\n100 years ago science and math were relatively simple, and a genius could make a name for himself.  Now, the fields are so complex that even for geniuses, collaboration is the way to making new discoveries.\n\nNew discoveries are being made at just as fast a pace, or even faster, now than 100 years ago.  It is just that each new discovery is "smaller", since most of the big discoveries have (presumably) already been made.\n\nIn other words, they stand on the shoulders of giants.


About 2 days ago my msn messenger stopped alerting me of new e-mails.I could get upto 20 e-mail in a 10 minute period and don't get any indication of them until I log off and log on again.Could my laptop be infected with something?I get alerted when people on my list come online so it's not like my msn freezes.Any help would be great.

Your mailbox may be 'full', clear/delete your 'inbox' of unwanted mail, also clear/delete unwanted 'sent' mail. You may then want to empty your 'trash' if it is not set-up to empty itself. Remember, MSN is prone to hacking/viruses/spam, so it's best to do a thorough scan of your computer system using Norton or McAfee, or a similar, quality Anti-Virus program.\n\nhope this helps a bit...................hyphen8me


So let's say I agree that depression is a biological illness, and there's a cure out there for everyone. What if your a 47 year old man, you have no wife, no kids, both parents dead, a sibling you're not on speaking terms with, broke as a joke, etc...Don't tell me it's still curable.

Never okay about suicide.  The fact that my heart went out to you despite not even knowing who you are I hope in some way will show you that your presence here on earth is valuable.  Life is hard.  Everyone has problems, you are not alone in that. Sometimes you can't help but thinking that you want to just throw in the towel and say the hell with everything but that is the easy way out.  Life is precious.  Millions of people everywhere in hospital beds, on battle fields, you name it, are fighting to preserve their lives right now.  You must find a reason to carry on.  Lonliness is easily cured.  Meet people, get out there. Happiness is never constant but we can't be ready to end it all when our lives aren't going as we'd like.  I am sorry that you have no wife and family and your parents are dead and that you and your siblings are not speaking and your finances aren't so good right now. But God still has a purpose for you.  You may be just what someone else needs in the form of a friend or companion.  I hope I have helped you in some way. It breaks my heart when I hear that someone has taken their own life. May God bless you and help you see the gift that you are regardless of your current circumstances. You are in my prayers.


Millions are expected at the Illigal Mexican Boycott, Thoudands were at the Anti-war rally. Only hundreds at the Darfur one. No Al Sharpton, no Jesse Jackson, no movie stars. What's up with this?

One reason that I think it was so small is because many, many people still don't know about what's going on in Darfur. But I do think the protest has been effective in opening up people's eyes to the cause since the rally was on every news channel last night and in all the papers today.\n\nAlso, even though the rally was smaller than a lot of the protests in D.C., the Washington Post said this is one of the most diverse protests in the city. It was beautiful to see such a mix of ethnicity's, political groups and religious groups standing united for a cause.\n\nEdit: I just noticed what you said about no celebrities or other high-profile leaders were there. Actually, Al Sharpton WAS there as well as George Clooney, Burak Obama, Kweisi Mfume and Minut Bol (the former NBA player from Sudan).


I live in the Sacramento, CA region, and am interested in looking for foreclosures.  Is it a good time to look?  Is it an easy task?  Can I get a loan to buy a foreclosure?  What is my best resource for finding foreclosures?  Any and all information would be appreciated.

We bought a foreclosed home last year.  We found it listed in the MLS, right along with all of the other houses in the neighborhood.  Our Realtor showed it to us.  We made an offer and had an answer the same day.  It took six weeks to get a closing on a cash deal.  There was some extra paperwork, mostly releasing the bank from any liability for things not working.\n\nThe house had been vacant for 2 years, and had not been well maintained prior to that.  Once we had the power turned on we found that the furnace, fridge, and hot water heater did not work.  We fixed the hot water heater for $20 in parts and the furnace for an $85 service call.  We did have to buy a new fridge.  We have replaced all of the floor coverings, some drywall, gutted the kitchen & bathroom, made some repairs to the roof.  We are still messing with the plumbing.  We are very close to being done with the renovations (finally), and it is starting to feel like home.\n\nOn the up side of all of this, we got our house for less than half of its market value.  By doing the work ourselves we saved a ton of $$$ on the rehab.  I would go this route again.\n\nMy advice to you would be to locate a Realtor in your area.  There are some that specialize in this type of listing.


I was hospitalized a couple of months ago and I had what I thought were bruses from them drawing blood and IV's. These disclorations are still here. My doctor has given me a something to put on it twice but it still has not gone away. Any suggestions?

I DONT KNOW BUT GOOD LUCK :)DIS SHAKESUMTIN AND IM OUT


why is that is a kid is smart but thet r only 10 they still get treated as if they were 4 or noy as smart

Because intelligence is threatening and causes most people to compare themselves to you. Alot of adults will treat a child who is smart more like a child to ensure they know their "place". An adult wont likely want to give up their "authority" in a situation and one way to gain authority is to know more than someone. So again, they will feel the need to "put you in your place" so to speak. Its unfortunate, however only lasts for a little while.


i had surgery on my spenoid sinus two days ago. i woke up this morning (4-22-06) and was told by my surgeon to go the the ER. i went and they found cocaine in my system. i *never* use cocaine. i don't even drink caffeine. i have a seizure disorder and stay away from any type of stimulant. i do know the surgeon used a "numbing agent" for my sinuses after they put me to sleep for surgery. do surgeons use cocaine in surgery? i have no idea how cocaine could have gotten in my body!\nworried...

Yes it is used in hospitals... see below!\n\nGENERIC NAME: COCAINE HYDROCHLORIDE - TOPICAL (KOE-kane)\nMedication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage\n\nUSES: Cocaine is used as a local anesthetic to temporarily numb areas of the mouth, nose, and throat (mucous membranes).\n\nHOW TO USE: This medication is applied directly to the inside of the mouth, nose, or throat.

Im getting erratic results with my websearches, from 62%-87%, any TRUE answers people?

best bet is to go for the highest mark. It does depend on the test though. my A+ said it was 80% but after i passed on my pass sheet is said 75% so my ACPT and ACDT both said 80 and were 80 my ACHDS said 70 and was 65 so i would assume the full 87% and hope your lucky and its lower


I wanted to ask instead of going to war should we not just make Bush and the other president fight it out in a ring.

There's several places you can get a free website including from Yahoo (their service is called Geocities).\n\nIf you're serious about creating a website and want one that looks professional then I wouldn't consider a free site, there are many paid for sites that need only cost you a few dollars a month.\n\nHere's some of the things to consider about free sites...\n\n-- 1 --\nYou're often restricted in the type of files you can have, some sites don't allow MP3's or video files for example.\n\n-- 2 --\nThere's usually a bandwidth limit (this is the amount of data that's downloaded).  It normally doesn't take long to reach the bandwidth limit and when this happens the site becomes unavailable - you've probably come across such sites yourself.  The bandwidth limit is often hourly and also monthly.  If you hit your hourly limit your site will be down for about an hour but if you hit your monthly limit if could be down for days or even weeks.\n\n-- 3 --\nMost free sites have a limit to the amount of space you have to store your site.  Large files such as music and video will very quickly fill the space.  Simple text pages don't use much space but when you start adding a few graphics this can soon add up.\n\n-- 4 --\nThere's rarely any technical support with free sites other than user forums.  If something goes wrong it's up to you to sort it out.\n\n-- 5 --\nSome copmpanies that provide free sites are 'here today and gone tomorrow' - just what you need if you've spent ages designing a nice site.  Others are initially free but then state you have to pay or your site will be deleted.  To avoid this stick with the well known and established names such as Tripod/Lycos and Yahoo/Geocities.\n\n-- 6 --\nFree sites are often limited in what you can do, a lot won't support PSP or MySql, some don't even support Java.  Could mean that features such as forums, blogs, guestbooks etc aren't possible on your site.\n\n-- 7 --\nA free site has to pay for itself somehow, no company is going to give away webspace without getting something in return.  One common practice is to place adverts on your site.  Sometimes these ads are themed and related to your site but other times they're completely unrelated.\n\n-- 8 --\nOften the site isn't transferable except to a paid for service provided by the same company.  This can be a serious problem if your site becomes popular and you need to move it somewhere that can accomodate your growing needs.\n\n-- 9 --\nOften any extras are hugely expensive, if for example you want to buy more data transfer (bandwidth) you could easily be paying $1 per GB.  It might not sound a lot but if you're also paying for more web storage space and access to certain tools it will work out far more expensive than having a paid-for site.\n\n-- 10 --\nYou won't get your own domain name so instead of having xyzcompany.com you'll have something like freewebhostingcompany/xyzcompany.com.\n\n-- FREE SITES --\nIf you still want a free website then this page here... http://www.free-webhosts.com/search-webhosts.php is an excellent resource as it compares no less than 545 different free webhosts complete with reviews and user comments for each one.\n\nHere's some links to the 4 most popular free webhosts...\n\nLycos Tripod (CNet rating 9 out of 10)\nhttp://www.tripod.lycos.com/ \n\nLycos Angelfire (CNet rating 6 out of 10)\nhttp://angelfire.lycos.com/\n\nYahoo Geocities (CNet rating 8 out of 10)\nhttp://geocities.yahoo.com/home/ \n\nExpress Page (CNet rating 4 out of 10)\nhttp://www.expage.com/\n\n-- PERSONAL RECOMENDATION --\nIf you want a decent site with a wide range of tools and virtually no restirictions then go for a paid one.  They're not expensive and you'll have infinitely more flexibility to design and expand your site.\n\n1 and 1 is the world's number one webhosting company where you can get a site for as little as


I want to know cuz im going to major in computer engineering

Engineering is the application of scientific and technical knowledge to solve human problems. Engineers use imagination, judgement and reasoning to apply science, technology, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of useful objects or processes.\n\nEngineers use their knowledge of science, mathematics, and appropriate experience to find suitable solutions to a problem. Creating an appropriate mathematical model of a problem allows them to analyze it (sometimes definitively), and to test potential solutions. Usually multiple reasonable solutions exist, so engineers must evaluate the different design choices on their merits and choose the solution that best meets their requirements. Genrich Altshuller, after gathering statistics on a large number of patents, suggested that compromises are at the heart of "low-level" engineering designs, while at a higher level the best design is one which eliminates the core contradiction causing the problem.


i need links, infos, terms, how much will the artist get....bla bla bla...... pls...\n\ncheers guys!!

OK, this is how you do it:\nYou can go to the iTunes Music store and buy and download music. Or, if you don't want to do that, put in a CD and it will automatically open with iTunes. Then, you will get a listing of all the songs on that particular CD. IF you want some of those songs, or all of them, in your library (that's where the songs are kept) just click and drag them onto the playlist that says "Library". Then, all of the songs will play in order as they come onto the library. The other playlists on the left-hand side tell you where who want to go.... Party Shuffle is the playlist where it stores all of your music (kind of like the library), but different. The Radio is... the Radio! You can listen to a lot of different kinds of music. The Music Store is where you can look up different artists, songs, and titles. There are many, many genres in there. Well, that's all I have time for. If you have anymore questions, email me at iluv_19990@yahoo.com or foxymamma_59@yahoo.com.

my boyfriend has bi-polar and he sometimes takes it out on me or yelles at me.

Then we all need a reserve parachute as periodically the mind stays closed at the wrong time :-)


If it does, am I not capable of making my own decisions about my life, is everything i do already planned or destined to happen that way?  For example, in the Bible, Judas was "destined" to be the traitor, had he no choice? Cause if he didn't we shouldn't dislike him.

I think it's all about how you look at it.  If you think that his choice was fated, then you believe in fate.  If you believe that he used his free will to make the choice and it happened, then fate had nothing to do with it.\n\nAlthough I do believe in fate (to a certain degree) I think that the only way you can tell if it is truly fate, is if you saw the future and some one could actually tell you it was "destined" or "fated" to happen.

due to that people are not ble to understand what iam speking. some time personnely i felt that my speach was very fast. soplease let me know how i can reduse my fast.

try this; start with spell checker when writing! A step towards slowing down. Then tell yourself at least 2x a day, "what I have to say is more important than how fast I say it. I find most people who talk too fast are afraid that others won't listen to what they say or feel others talk too much for them to get a chance to say something. Consentrate on having something worthwhile to say. Try practising in the mirror each day. Then try reading into a recorder & play back until it sounds right. Do these things until you get the results you want & you notice people listen to what you say & most of all understand what you say. You can do it. Believe it!


Reading the questions and answers on here, I find an awful lot of people who can not formulate a proper question or sentence. Much less spell, even with spell checking. I have only a high school education, some of these people are in college. Where are we headed as a nation? I know some of it is digital shorthand but most is just poor education! Is it too late?

I agree. Too bad "much less spell, even with spell checking," isn't a complete sentence. The run-on sentence after that should be separated with a semi-colon. "English" should always be capitalized. There are a few other errors on your post as well. \n\nPerhaps, instead of teachers, the fault lays on adults who can not lead by example and type a correct sentence.


Have you taken the MCAT yet? If so, how did it go? I'm taking it next year and any tips on studying or material on the test would be appreciated.

A prep course is the way to go.  It is invaluable in teaching you what to expect and really helps.  its hard to do that on your own.  Please take a skills and interests survey first, though.  Medicine is a huge investment and if its not the best choice for you, its tough to get out of once you start in medical school.  I'd also talk to some practicing physicians, too and some legislators.  Things have changed in medicine very dramatically over the past 20 years and more changes are inevitable because the current system is not working for the people most of all, but not for physicians or hospitals either.

my boyfriend is constantly looking at females.  hes obsessed with looking at them.  he notices every female on earth.  we drive 45 minutes to and from work together each day... and on the freewway he will notice a female in front of us and drive behind her and stare in her rear view mirror and side mirror at her face.  its sooo creepy.  i know some guys do this to check women out but my boyfriend does it and stares and i guess he tries to make me jealous? hes 22 yrs old!  why does he constantly feel the need to turn his eyes towards every female on the freeway and every where we go? when hes looking at the girl (or older woman) driving in front of us... i will get really upset and sometimes cry to myself ..and even look towards a guy to show my boyfriend how it feels. but he still does it.  and when i tell him to stop... he freaks out and yells and says "its called driving!! i am not looking at any females!"  but he IS LOOKING AT THEM. and the females NEVER even look at him!! HELP!

Honey...sorry to say this but this wonderfull boyfriend of yours does not respect u or the realationship that he has with u..just by reading what u wrote i can tell that this kind of behavior from him breaks your heart...u shouldn't put up with this at all...if he is staring at her in front of u..god only knows what he does behind your back..it doesn't matter what any of us post here to say to u...But if i was u i would move on...get your things when he is not around and get out of this relationship...think about it this way...if i was your sister and i told u what u are telling us...what would u say?...see what i mean?...there are some wonderful guys out there that u havn't even met yet that are dying to meet u


Pauls thorn in the flesh could have been that he was going BLIND\n\n2Co 12:7 To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. \n2Co 12:8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. \n\n\nGal 4:13 As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you. \nGal 4:14 Even though my illness was a trial to you, you did not treat me with contempt or scorn. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus himself. \nGal 4:15 What has happened to all your joy? I can testify that, if you could have done so, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.\n\nPaul WAS NOT GAY. If anyone would read the bible Paul preached against homosexuality

um, no, actually, the apostles did not "hang out"0--they were doing the will of Christ, as missionaries--and furthermore they were not with only men: martha, mary, mary magdalene, lydia, and others are all women. men of that time did not predominantly spend time around women because of the culture, but that doesn't make every 1st century man a homosexual.\nPaul did preach against homosexuality, but not solely...he continued to encourage repentance from all sins (not to srike up the "whats a sin?" ordeal here).\nPaul's thorn in the flesh could've been his conversion blindness, but if you recall that was healed. it is believed that he was given an illness such as weak lungs or a mobility disability to be his thorn. i recommend referring to a theological teacher at a conservative seminary...trinity episcopal is (i think, don't quote me) or a pastor or other minister with strong faith and traditional doctrine in mind.

mom has always played the matriarch.  all kids resent her but she never has to know except for one sister my best friend she backed away from her and it seemed to make everyone but me in the family hater her for it.  mom is the kind who will stay in bed dying if you confront her or "scold" her she will give the silent treatment or the dagger look and play guilt feel sorry for her games.  i only want to tell her that things she says hurt me and i am the only kid left who she lives by and follows around the country with her in my town and life i am chicken as the other kids to tell her even the slightest thing.  i long not to be so trapped by fear of her wrath.  help please.

I understand how you feel, you wonder sometimes why some people have children and don't deserve them.  Your mother is manipulative and sick, she has pressed all your buttons and knows where they are because she's the one who put them there.  She's toxic and needs to grow up.\n\nYou need to give yourself permission to be happy, you need to let go of the child inside of you and become the adult you were meant to be.  You need to believe you deserve to be happy.  Your mom made her world the way it is, and clings to you because she can.  I implore you to get some counseling so you can stand up for your right to happiness.\n\nYour mother has to realize she cannot manipulate you, she won't ever change, as people get older they get worse and you don't need this albatross around your neck.\n\nParents are our protectors, our nurturers, they are supposed to put us before themselves which is every parents obligation in life.  You don't owe her a thing, she owes you a good and healthy life.  You didn't asked to be born, let her stay in bed and "die" she's manipulating you and everyone else has figured that out.\n\nYou need to have some peace and some calm in your life.  It's too short and you don't deserve to be guilty.\n\nI hope you find the peace you seek.  Good Luck.


i always tell them what to do but they seems to forget it all the time.they argue even in a small way.at morning,noon and even before we go to sleep.i dont know what to do with them.i even try to be patient and mellow just to make them realize that im having a hard time with them.even in front of me they argue,even if they know that i got sick due to nervousness and i dont want to hear arguments.but sometimes,they show their care for me.i love my children thats why im seeking for advices on wat to do.i often pray to god for strength and guidance.thank you if someone can help me with my problem.im a single parent right now,cause my husband is working far from us.thats why sometimes i easily get mad when they do things that are irritating.i wish i can make them good kids with the help of someone.

The best way to fight ant injustice is not to tackle it upfront, but to create a scenario that outdates the existing scene.\n    Show some living examples to the kids, who are very good and are worthy role models of being emulated.\n    Give more attention to their good deeds and praise them.Don't give much attention to their bad deeds and affirm to them that u love them and want them t become good and grow strong and noble.there's nothing like a mother's encouragement and love, which will change any truant into a good person.

i have a problem i always fantisize about twins going at it, am i the only one? i mean i think insest is gross unless its female twins. is that crazy?

I love when females go at each other, twins or not... Lesbians are a definite turn on....


I'm trying to find out who has to tell you they are recording your voice and who doesn't; if thats anybody?

I believe anyone recording you has to tell you unless its under the instruction of legal authorities.  If a business wants to record your conversation even for training purposes they have to tell you; if a person wants to record you to try and "entrap" you for some reason they can't without telling you up front they are recording the conversation.  The acception to that would be if the police or district attorney instructed them to record conversations for thier use in court.


ever hear about this. i forget who it was.


I always get distracted with the computer while I am working on my homework.  The problem is most of my homework is online and I have to use a computer to do it.  How can I stop goofing off and actually start doing my hw more effectivly?

Can you think of a worse death than being force fead cinnamon rolls until you died. So dry and rich, you'd feel like a glass of water but wouldn't get one... soon enough you'd die.

She still sleeps with me and claims to love me and sobs and sobs if I say I think we're done but she keeps hanging out with this guy who's trying get with her and she let him rub her and cuddle and even kiss her though she said the kiss was gross and i guess his little thingy got hard too. I don't know what to do-- frankly I'm getting sick of the run-around. But I have feelings for her. What does one do?

I've had a few platonic female friends.  I've given some hugs and some backrubs.  I've never kissed them.  Your girlfriend crossed the line.  Why would she tell you that "his little thingy got hard"?!?  Definitely past the line.\n\nIt sounds like she is playing games and is at the least trying to make you feel jealous.  At the worst, she is shopping for another boyfriend and just wants to keep you on the line.\n\nIt's hard to convey all the intricacies of a relationship on these little questions.  But from the little you've revealed, I would dump her and cut off all contact.  Until she grows up, she is not worthy to date seriously.


What if you have a laser in space. And you shoot away from the Earth. Now in 3 seconds you shut it off. Does that mean there is going to be a 900,000 km ray of light shooting thru space until it hits something?

Yes, to a stationary observer, that is exactly what it would appear to be.


Which is correct?\nOne: Right now I major in history.\nTwo: Right now I am majoring in history.

I think it can be both correct, depending on the context. \n\nNumber One seems to focus on the fact that you study history, not economics, not literature. \n\nNumber Two seems to focus on your activity right now, as in I started out as an English major but RIGHT NOW I am majoring in history.\n\nHmmm, convinced?


I asked a question earlier this week about how to deal with my boyfriend's ex-wife and his kids.  We are having trouble with the ex-wife because she says she doesn't want me around her children and we are getting an apartment together.  One of the answers that I got were from a girl questioning why we were moving in together if we weren't engaged.  \n\nI don't believe in marriage myself and he is in no rush to get married, we are serious about each other and have been dating for a while.  Is living with a significant other still perceived as being 'wrong'????

I don't believe there's anything wrong with it.  Additionally, if you and your partnner are going to be together long-term, the exwife will just have to realize that it's unrealistic to expect for you to not be in the children's lives.


this topic has to do with automotive engineering and specifically on suspension system of automotive vehicle.

A reactive suspension responds to driveline torque.  A non-reactive system does not.  \n\nSo, for instance, a simple leaf spring is reactive (not good).  This is because the suspension system (the leaf) serves the dual purpose of countering driveline torque.  Assume rear-wheel drive and the car is accelerating.  The axle reacts to the force of the wheel against the pavement by trying to twist in the opposite direction (the differential tries to torque "up").  In reaction to this, the front part of the leaf is compressed more while the back is stretched a bit.  The leaf assumes an "S" shape.  The suspension now behaves differently.  A simple band-aide is traction bars (see second web site for an example).\n\nIn response to this problem some fairly complex suspensions such as "trailing arm" "semi-trailing arm", torsion beam, multi-link and Weissach axle suspension were developed.  See final link.\n\nFrom the link below:\n[t]he term "non-reactive" means that the suspensiondoes not react appreciably to torque forces applied toa drive axle, primarily during acceleration. Being non-reactive substantially eliminates driveline torque induced problems.


URGENCY!  Do they think they have all the time in the world to accept Christ?

I agree that the Universe was created by a higher being. I don't agree that said being created man at all. However, I do think that by becoming aware of ourselves and simply believing in said being's existence that said being is now aware of us. I don't believe that God/Diety/whatever you want to call it really gives a damn what we do. Anyway...I think that all beings, sentient or otherwise, that exist in the Universe are a result of the divine and since the divine makes no mistakes we are as we were meant to be. Flawed but still here. Still trying to find the meaning of it all.

The only dating I have done as an adult has been from on here.  I usually kind of know the person, have talked on the phone and online for quite awhile before we meet.  I have usually dreamed about the meeting for some time.  I tend to live a bit in a fantasy world.  I think about will we have as much fun together laughing, will he see me and think that I am not what he expected, etc.  I don't worry about how I will see the other person because I have already formed an emotionally satisfying bond from talking for awhile.


like getting a apartment,paying bills and living on a budget.

Read Amy Dacyzyn's Tightwad Gazette books, usually at the library, the 1st 2 are the best- taught me how to live sooo cheaply when i needed to. For cheap easy how to cook, do laundry, get the book "Where's Mom now that I need her"


In England all teams play each other twice per season, once at home and once away.

After each side has played each other 3 times, the league divides into two groups of 6, one to decide the title and European places and one to decide relegation. The sides then play the remaining round of fixtures against the teams in their group.


i mean like boys wit girls or girls wit girls etc

Its hard to say but I thinks its because the person thats doing it or person's are two faced.


I am exercising 3-4 times a week, however I want to increase this including a strengh training routine. I am working out for a 1/2 on average..I want to lose more weight. What do you do?

I work out 5 days a week for 2 hours.. or at least a hour and a half.\n\n1/2 hour on the stationary bike.. 1/2 hour on the ski-machine.. and 1/2 -1 hour on the weight machines.\n\nsometimes I'll throw in a 20 minute swim to cool down.


My teenage daughter unfortunatley has inhereted my flat chest, and is ridculed in school.. i went thru that myslef for years and would like to try something natural that might help her out a bit.

Nope, the breast is fat cells, there is no way to get those specific fat cells to increase in size.  There may be some kind of hormone therapy, but I never heard of it being prescribed for this purpose b/c she would need it on an ongoing basis.  Sometimes the birth control can make the breasts bigger. Or sometimes gaining like 5 lbs. will allow the fat to go to the breasts first, but if she is really small, I would try the pill.  ANd don't forget the padded bra.


Doctor's have said deodorant, but I don't think so. Should I be concerned?

If the bumps are under the skin it is probably lymph nodes.  Some people call them swollen glands.  They could be caused from some infection in your body, or virus.  Or you could have glandular tissue that gets swollen and tender around your menstrual cycle.  Limiting caffeine can help ease the pain.  Probably nothing to worry about.  If you have swollen painful glands in other parts of your body (neck, groin area) then you probably need to get the doctor to feel them and check them out.  Good luck
