Stock charts almost always have their Y axis limited to the range of activity.  As an example, check out any stock on Yahoo Finance.  If a stock trades between 20 and 25 during a given time period, the chart's Y axis is from 20 to 25, not from 0 to 25.  This makes a stock that is very stable, tading between 80 and 81, look just as volitile as a stock trading from 80 to 160 at first glance.  If the charts were grounded at zero, you would immediately see that the stable stock was very different than the volitile one.

What you need is stock charts plotted by percentage returns (inculding dividends) as you will see at www.fasttrack.net


Lennon,of course,don't you think?He was the genius;McCartney was only a puppet...

Lennon without a doubt.  I think Paul isn't quite as bad as people make him to be, but John and George were much better.  John especially took the music to a whole different level.


what are the best jokes to make a girl laugh? \nneed jokes not facts or opinions \n\nthanks

Spontaneous funny always works better than stupid internet jokes that everyones been told a million times. If it seems too planned, it doesnt work as well. And no girl Ive ever met likes the like, notecards under the table approach to making her laugh. Be yourself, if youre not that funny, then dont try to be. She'll notice.\n\npeace


this sleeve only requires a small incision and goes under the ligiment but over the nerve and recovery time is only about a week.Can anyone help me?

you wouldn't be able to buy one without being a physician. Maybe you would be better off with a sleeve shown on this web site.


wat does it mean to have a serious relationship for u

For me, it's when you try to break up but can't stand being apart so you hook back up. That's when you know you have the real thing.


Or the name Keith? OK OK, I know proper names dont always count, but if thats the case, I want my name, Dave, to now be spelled "Xzvc". I drive a "Nfgel", and live in the town of "Qkfrs  Rgmmv".

The English language is made of of words that originally came from many other languages so many of the phonetic rules that apply most of the time do not appoly all of the time.  The "i before e" rule is just one of them.  Consider this poem, which I think says it all!!\n\nOur Strange Lingo\nWhen the English tongue we speak\nWhy is break not rhymed with freak?\nWill you tell me why it’s true\nWe say sew, but likewise few?\nAnd the maker of a verse,\nCannot rhyme his horse with worse?\nBeard is not the same as heard,\nCord is different from word,\nCow is cow, but low is low,\nShoe is never rhymed with foe.\nThink of hose and dose and lose,\nAnd think of goose and yet of choose,\nThink of comb and tomb and bomb,\nDoll and roll and home and some.\nAnd since pay is rhymed with say,\nWhy not paid with said I pray?\nThink of blood and food and good;\nMould is not pronounced like could.\nWherefore done, but gone and lone -\nIs there any reason known?\nTo sum up all, it seems to me\nSounds and letters don’t agree.\n\n:)

what do i do? because i feel i want to be with him! he is a really grate funny guy! i smile everytime i see him! he hates to see me sad or mad and he sticks up for me when a guy trys to hur t me or anyone! is he the one if  so how do i tell him what i feel??

Tell him how you feel, and kiss him. Does he kiss you,too, with out hesitation? If yes, that's an indication. Then ask him what he thinks of you and how he feels about you. Then tell him how you feel. In essence you'd be turning the question on him, and giving yourself a chance to express youself. Go for it, girl! I sense you're lovable, sincere and innoccent.


I heard his name on the radio - seems like a health guru of some sort...

Dr. Nicholas V. Perricone, or Dr. N.V Perricone is a doctor who specializes in dermatology (matters of the skin), and issues such as wrinkles, weight loss, acne, and diet. He has written many best-selling books and has his own line of lotions, facial cleaners, toners, supplements, and many other health care related items. He is a very wealthy man and it appears he works more to make people pretty, than healthy. I have heard that his products are really good, but I have never tried them myself. I know that some of the facial cleaners and lotions are very expensive. Are they worth it? I cannot say. He is making a lot of money from a lot of people though.

I'm a 41 year old single man who master bates (Yahoo will not allow the correct spelling) once daily and twice on rare occassions. Recently I have noticed that I have had some trouble getting and staying erect and that over the past week or two there is a constant vibration or light spasm in the area of my prostate. It is very annoying, but not painful at all. More like a constant "buzz" or vibration. Has anyone expereienced this or know what might cause this?

is there any fever?\nfor how long has this been on?\nis it happening only when you master....?\nis there any secretions from your lower pipes?\nis there a heavy dragging sensation in that area?\ndo you get pain while passing stool?\ndo you feel any stool left after you defecate?\nanswer all those questions and go to a urologist,just in case you've got a prostatitis or something.\ndon't undermine this and be carefull,go to a doctor.


I've lived with him for over 2 years.  The bank accounts and credit cards are all in my name.  Most of the furniture and personal belongings were purchased while we were together on my credit cards.  Both cars are in my name, one paid off and the other we are paying payments on.  My income made up 60% of the total.  I feel guilty if I take everything, but I don't know what to give him and what to keep.  Is it wrong to setup a separate bank account to put money aside for savings when I leave?  Do I leave right away? Or do I wait until I'm finacially ready?

it's very hard to leave when your lives are kinda of one. you feel bad for leaving. since most of the stuff you share are in your name and you don't want to leave him with nothing. i understand how your feeling right now. i really do. in some ways I'm in the same boat.as i sit here 1in the morning have way to much on my mind to sleep.looking for people to help or dealing with a similar situation.if you feel you can sit down and really talk things over with him no fighting aloud.get all the bill that are in your name.close them or ask that he be taken off.set up a account so its not hard on you when you do get your own place and if i were you i would tell him to do the same. the best thing is try not to fight it will only bring more problems along the way.since both cars are in your name and one is paid off. see if he wants the other car he would take over the payments and get it put in his name just in case later down the road something happens your not responsible.i know its hard but you will work everything out and move on happy that you did. you ever need to talk e-mail me brooke_sittner@yahoo.com


should i call on him when our son need any thing?... should he give money per month?   or should child support handle it?

One thing a learned about co- parenting is that its complicated. But if the child is his why isn't he supporting him. Assuming,that the two of you are not in a relationship, and it's his son, of course he should give money every month.  The two of you should have to sit down and determine how much you spend on your son every month and figure out how to split it all in half. Negotiate and be reasonable and let him know that you want him to be there for your son not just financially but emotionally and physically too. Child Support is like the last solution, if you don't think that he will stick to the monthly plan on his own then go file child support. He just has to realize that it's a 50/50 thing even though yall are not in a relationship. IT"S HIS SON TOO! Make him realize that.

I know what it is,I am not alone,but does anybody else have it?

Yes, I have had it since I was a child and was molested. It can also be associated with obsessive compulsive disorder. There is a webpage that helps and they chat every Fri.

Does God Require Fasting?\n\nGOD’S Law given through Moses required fasting only on one occasion—on the annual Day of Atonement. The Law commanded that on that day the Israelites were to ‘afflict their souls,’ which is understood to mean that they fasted. (Leviticus 16:29-31; 23:27; Psalm 35:13) However, this fast was not a mere formalism. The observance of the Day of Atonement moved the people of Israel to greater consciousness of their sinfulness and the need for redemption. They fasted on that day also to express sorrow for their sins and repentance before God.\n\nThough this was the only obligatory fast under the Mosaic Law, the Israelites observed fasts on other occasions. (Exodus 34:28; 1 Samuel 7:6; 2 Chronicles 20:3; Ezra 8:21; Esther 4:3, 16) Included among these were voluntary fasts as a means of displaying repentance. Jehovah urged the erring people of Judah: “Come back to me with all your hearts, and with fasting and with weeping and with wailing.” This was not to be an outward show, for God goes on to say: “Rip apart your hearts, and not your garments.”—Joel 2:12-15.\n\nIn time, many fasted as an outward formalism. Jehovah detested such insincere fasting and therefore asked hypocritical Israelites: “Should the fast that I choose become like this, as a day for earthling man to afflict his soul? For bowing down his head just like a rush, and that he should spread out mere sackcloth and ashes as his couch? Is it this that you call a fast and a day acceptable to Jehovah?” (Isaiah 58:5) Rather than making a showy display of their fasting, these wayward people were asked to produce works befitting repentance.\n\nSome fasts established by the Jews met with God’s disapproval right from the outset. For example, at one time the people of Judah had four annual fasts to commemorate the calamitous events associated with Jerusalem’s siege and desolation in the seventh century B.C.E. (2 Kings 25:1-4, 8, 9, 22-26; Zechariah 8:19) After the Jews were released from captivity in Babylon, Jehovah said through the prophet Zechariah: “When you fasted . . . , and this for seventy years, did you really fast to me, even me?” God did not approve of these fasts because the Jews were fasting and mourning over judgments that had come from Jehovah himself. They were fasting because of the calamity that befell them, not because of their own wrongdoing that led to it. After they were restored to their homeland, it was time for them to rejoice instead of bemoaning the past.—Zechariah 7:5.\n\nIs Fasting for Christians?\n\nEven though Jesus Christ never commanded his disciples to fast, he and his followers fasted on Atonement Day because they were under the Mosaic Law. Additionally, some of his disciples fasted voluntarily on other occasions, since Jesus did not direct them to avoid the practice altogether. (Acts 13:2, 3; 14:23) Yet, they were never to ‘disfigure their faces that they might appear to men to be fasting.’ (Matthew 6:16) Such an external display of piety might bring admiring glances and approving nods from other humans. Nevertheless, God is not pleased with such a showy display.—Matthew 6:17, 18.\n\nJesus also spoke of his followers’ fasting at the time of his death. He was not thereby instituting a ritual fast. Instead, he was indicating a reaction to the deep sorrow they would experience. Once he was resurrected, he would be with them again, and there would no longer be such a reason for them to fast.—Luke 5:34, 35.\n\nThe Mosaic Law ended when “the Christ was offered once for all time to bear the sins of many.” (Hebrews 9:24-28) And with the end of the Law, the command to fast on Atonement Day ended. Thus, the only obligatory fast mentioned in the Bible was removed.\n\nWhat About Lent?\n\nWhat, then, is the basis for Christendom’s practice of fasting during Lent? Both Catholic and Protestant churches recognize Lent, although the manner of observing it differs from church to chu


I just had a baby and have 3 step boys. I cant work full time but I need the money.

I HAVE BEEN WITHTHIS GUY FOR ALMOST 2 MONTHS, WE HAVE KNOWN EACH OTHER 10+ YEARS. AND I WANT TO TELL HIM HOW MUCH I CARE BUT I WONDER IF I SHOULD WAIT FOR HIM TO TELL ME FIRST?

there isnt a good time or a bad time. more often than not, when we waited too long for a good time, he has oready ended up with someone else. you can always let him know how you feel, but no pressure on him. and if things dun work, just be friends.

i MEAN THE HYPE THAT COMES ALONG WITH IT?!

I remember my prom.\nIt was fun.\n\nBut I spent about $500 on a dress and other things, and I had an even more fun time at a party a year later when I was in college - and everything was FREE!\n\nUnless, it's your wedding, there's no need for any hype for any kind of party.  It's just a huge, expensive party, and after the after-prom-party, it's OVA!


Ok, so my man hes early twenties, hes always out till all hours of the night, smokes pot (even though I'm against it cause the kids), refuses to come home till real late, accuses me of cheatin constantly, ...the list goes on.  We been together four years married two,  are things ever going to change?  Am I just waiting around for nothing?  Why does it take so much longer for the man to mature?  Its almost like he doesn't realize hes got kids, or that hes even married and the things it entails.  Please help!!

I thought the spot on my leg was ingrown hair, friend saw it and said it was a spider bite and i should go to doctor. Just tryin to see if it is indeed a spider bite before i take the doc away from his golf game.

how does a body char except for the eyes and what may cause this to occur?

Are you talking about "spontaneous combustion? - - because that's never even been satisfactorily proven to happen.  It's hard to prove a negative, so there will always be some who believe spontaneous combustion can happen, but they will have to come up with convincing evidence before medical science will accept that it occurs.


I have developed male breasts as I have gained considerable amount of weight since I have stopped smoking since last December.

Because most breast tissue of men and women is fat tissue.  Therefore, when you gain weight, some people will gain it there.  Most men hate to hear that the awesome, mysterious breast is just fat!


I find it hard to stay on task or consistent when I start something...I guess I'm looking for my niche in the world and it gets depressing always starting somethings and stopping.

We all do this, don't feel bad...especially if you have adult ADD like I do...I always put on upbeat happy music to get me going...read the bible and pray...


When did the 1st caveman start going to church ?

religeons evolve, like species. At first you have primitive people, tens of thousands of years ago, wondering how they got there, and thanking the clouds for rain. And the infection keeps on going.


i know this was unheard of back then, but how are we supposed to know if God approves of this or not?

The Bible is really silent on the issue as it was not around in the period of time it was written.  The Bible does say that no greater love has any man than to lay down his life for another.  Taking that and looking at organ donation, I think that God would be very pleased that we would give our useless organs to another to save their lives.  What use do we have with them if we are dead?  It serves a greater good to help another and if God says that the greatest love is to lay our lives down for another, giving life when our lives are gone seems almost redundant...of course we should.  Hope this helps.


My fist question obviuosly wasnt important enough for any one to take it seriosly. So Ill not care to repeat it. But hopefully this will perk someones interest. There are some very discusting question & answers on this site entited "How can I masterbate?" I have reported it and if any one else is as discusted as I was you should report it too.

Yahoo answers is a place just like a city park. Over there you have the little kids on the swing set just having fun. Over there are the potheads always watching for "The Man". At the picnic table are three guys discussing horses. Over under a tree is a young couple on a blanket gazing into each other's eyes. Ask each of them the same question and you will get four different answers. Some good answers and some not so good. The potheads will be flippant, the horse men will be better. Take it all with a grain of salt.

Don't take anything and just lift light weights.\n\nYour muscles and bones are still developing so it's bad for them to lift heavy weights until you are finished growing.\n\nStay off steroids and supplements because they are not good for anyone.\n\nAsk your doctor or someone else who has some knowledge.

I heard there is so many swing types, what the deal?

Hey, first of all, u are asking about batting and then giving details of swing. Both the terms belongs to to different departments of Game.\n\nBatting is the hitting of ball with the help of bat. The batsman is the person who is batting. He makes runs by hitting the ball......\n\nWhile Swing is a type of Bowling. A ball that curves through the air, as opposed to off the seam. There are three types of Swings:\n1. In Swing: Which tends to move into the Batsman.\n2. Out Swing: Which tends to move away from the Batsman.\n3. Reverse Swing: When the ball is 50 overs old and the pitch is as flat as a pancake, this phenomenon is often a bowling side's saving grace. First mastered by the Pakistani quicks of the 1980s and 1990s, it involves sideways movement of the ball through the air that is contrary to your average everyday laws of physics. It is called as the deadliest weapon of the fast Bowler. WAQAR YOUNIS  of pakistan was the master of this art...

My ex and I have had an on/off relationship for the past 4 months, we are currently not together, but I still have love for him even though he is acting like an ahole right now... what should I do. Should I show him that I want him back or tell him... what's the best advice

Well u have to ask yourself. What is it about him u luv? Look inside yourself. There is where u will find that answer. And this is very important " DON'T LET SEX CLOUD YOUR JUDGEMENT!!!!"


If the universe is constantly expanding and there is an opposite force that will bring everything back into balance, isnt it reasonable to assume that black holes will re-collapse everything back to its original state and repeat the cycle.

The universe is expanding more quickly the farther one gets toward the edge. \n\nWe know this because objects seen moving away from us through radio telescopes exibit a red shift, depending upon how fast they are moving away. The light from stars that are farther away from earth show more red shift than those close to earth, indicating that they are moving faster from us then their closer neighboors.\n\nThis implies that the forces of expansion are greater than those of contraction (gravity), and that the fate of the universe is not cyclical (no more big bangs), and that black holes, while locally dense, will never exert enough influence to contribute to large scale contraction of the universe.


I feel that they are real when you ask God to protect you I think he gives his angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways if you would ever like to talk more about it....skywayaloha@yahoo.com


when you feel that you are sent into heavens..everything seems so right and light..when you smile often and wanted to dream about the person you have fallen in love with..


Personally, I don't believe such things... But who knows?


When you feel like to see the same person all the time. When you feel like to be with him/her all the time. But in your mind, you are thinking that you'll let him/her free when you make a commitment to be together. Do you think that is possessive?


my friend was pulled over and he had weed in the car, what is the police gonna do to him?and he wasn't drunk or anything, he was pulled over because of the expired registration.

If the police saw the drug, then they will likely charge him with possession of a controlled substance. If it was a large amount, he may also face charges for intent to distribute.\n\nOf course, this begs the question. Why didn't he hide it under the seat or something?

I need some advice. I'm a female shopmore in high school. I've had 1 boyfirend relationship that lasted about 2weeks. Which was back in 8th grade. My firends have been though 3 or more relationships from 8th grade till now. I feel so singled out from everyone else. I've got guy firends also. I talk with them, and try to get out whenever I can. I've been to dances, and parties. I try to be me at all times when I'm out and about. I don't know what to do. I'd like to get into another relationship if that's possible. Is it me or is it something else?

Unfortunately, your situation is normal.  I know that sucks.  I've been there too.  But as I got older, I had PLENTY of relationships (some I shouldn't have been so willing to rush into.)  Endure and have fun.  This soon shall pass for you.


My fiance (who is Canadian) and I (I'm american) plan to marry in the States in June.  I just want to know if there is any forms or visas I will need to get in order to do so.  We don't intend to live in the US, and we are already planning on going through the legal immigration process for Canada.  Thank you in advance.

The only thing you will need is your marriage license.\nThen when you get the visa you will need to have the\nmarriage certificate to prove you are married. You can marry\nwho you want as long as you get the marriage License but\nwhoever is not a U.S. citizen you will need to provide a\nbirth Certificate from the country they are from and also\nI believe a visa in order to get the license. Good Luck in the future to both of you

He survived and was released because the punishment is over.\n\nThe clever second man says, "I am afraid of sword. I'll go for the electric chair." \nSame thing happened and he was released.\n\nThird man says, "I am afraid of sword. Here you have an out_of_order electric chair. So you have to hang me."\n\n\n---x---\n\nlol...\n\n<LEEEN

One night, Sally went to bed at 10:15 & read her book. Three quarters of an hour later, she put out her light & fell asleep. Later, she awoke again. Looking at her alarm clock, she saw the hands were exactly overlapping. A little over fifteen minutes later, she noticed all the digits on the radio alarm were all the same. Falling asleep again, she slept for the next four & a half hours before getting up for breakfast. What time did Sally get up?

10:15+ (90/4) = 10:37.5, but that doesn't really matter, b/c the next time when the overlapping/little over fifteen minutes later thing works is 3:15, to 3:33 (you could even say 33 seconds as well) and then 3:33 and 33 secs + 4.5 hours =\n\nSally woke up at 8:03 and 33 seconds


By reading the guidelines about the school it only pays for tuition but the student has to pay for the the books. But one of the counselors I talked to said finacial aid should cover everything that's if I don't get enough money to pay for my books.

Very, very few colleges or universities include the costs of textbooks in their tuition. Your bill that you will get from the college includes the tuition cost (pay the professor, operating costs, etc.), room and board (the minimum double oocupancy 20x20 room and a meal plan consisting of 100% fat and starch in a barely edible form) and miscellaneous charges for activities fees and such. Books are almost always extra, as each professor chooses what texts he wants to use. Of course they will pick the most expensive books. That is why they are mentioning financial aid. You can get any number of grants or loans to cover these costs. That is, if you qualify for financial aid. You literally have to be from a family that is barely above poverty level in order to get the small amount they offer you. When you finish the course and prepare to sell your books back to the bookstore, you will be told that ither they are not buying back (teacher will not use book next year) or that you will receive a gracious amount equal to 10% of the original cost. Come back the next semester and you will find that your $100 book, which you sold back and got $15, is now being sold for $75.\n\nBiggest scam in the history of higher education....\n\nYour best bet is to talk to someone at the college in the admissions department and have them give you a better estimate of expected costs.

Back in January I was hit by a car while crossing the street. The insurance company of the driver told me they were denying the claim saying there wasn't sufficiet evidence that it was the driver's fault. I just heard back from a lawyer on the case and he said he wouldn't take it because of the police report. I don't understand, and I want to know if anyone knows of other options?

You need to find a good lawyer who will fight for you.  That person that was driving is supposed to be in control of his car at all times.  Did you cross the street when you weren't supposed to? The insurance companies can't tell you that you can't sue - you have that legal right.  Talk to another attorney until you find one that will help you.  Try this site:  http://www.prairielaw.com


Okay, it is spring break and for track we were told to run every day even if the weather outside is bad. \nIt is really chilly outside and super windy. So, my question is "Is it bad to run in the cold and against the wind?" Because yesterday after running in a kinda windy condition my chest kinda hurt from breathing all the cold air.

I'll answer this as a 2-parter:\n\nIt's only bad to run in the cold and wind if your body hasn't gotten used to it and/or you're not wearing the appropriate clothing.  Many people run at sub-zero (Fahrenheit) temperatures, so it's just what you're used to (personally, I tend to opt for the indoor treadmill when it dips below 30).  If you're not used to running in cold temperatures, you might want to try spending a little more time outside (doing anything) to help your body get used to it.\n\nYou should look at running against the wind as an extra challenge for the day.  No, you won't run as fast as you normally do, but I'll bet you'll probably get a better workout than on a non-windy day.  I try to set my runs up so that the first part of my run is into the wind, and the second part is with the wind.\n\nAs for mileage, you shouldn't change the workout based on weather (unless you're still getting used to it).  Just don't expect the same performance as on warmer days (it's been proven that when temperatures dip below a certain point, performance is indeed affected).  Lastly, listen to what your body tells you.  If your lungs and chest start hurting, then you need to back down a bit until you're used to the weather.  If you try to work through the pain, you could get sick or worse, and that will take you out for much longer than you'll want.\n\nGood luck at spring track!


how can they prove that their is no God? i think it suckds for those who have to see things in order to believe, i believe in things i dont see yet, Jesus Christe is real and so is God.

Many people will only believe things that they can see. But like Jesus said, "blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed" (John 20:29). So consider yourself blessed. \n\nContinue believing Brown Sugar, don't ever let their ideals deceive and mold you otherwise.

Seems like most of the people who feel strongly about abortion are of 2 types: either they believe in unrestricted abortion. Or they believe in outlawing all abortions(with few exceptions). The truth of the matter is that in polls, Americans gives mixed messages- the polls show most Americans support the right to abortion, yet think there should be some restrictions.\n\nThe odds are that abortion laws will change in the next 5-10 years.The abortion battle will only get bigger. Is there a "happy" medium ? Or will the Supreme Court send it to the states by overturning Roe v Wade making it 50 battles ?

I don't think there is any middle ground that could make the hardcore pro-lifers happy.  If you believe that life begins at conception, any form of abortion is murder.  Unless you're prepared to say that some fetuses are people and others are not (like people who say it should be banned except in the case of rape)  I think that "middle ground" would have to mean abortion is legal until a certain point in the pregancy.  However, very few people advocate abortion up to the day before birth.  Personally, I think it should remain legal until the fetus would be considered viable if born prematurely at that age.  So any "middle ground" would essentially be a pro-choice policy.\n\nTo me, the only way to make everyone happy would be to develop technology to allow us to transplant an unwanted fetus into another woman (who wants to adopt a child) or allow it to develop in a hospital setting without risk to the fetus.  That way we could allow a woman to give up an unwanted child without forcing her to carry it to term but also without killing the fetus.  Obviously we're a long ways away from that, but I think it's possible in theory (just because we don't understand the processes well enough now doesn't mean we never will).\n\n________\n>>>would some people who were pro-life attack the method as unnatural<<<\n\nI'm sure there would be people who object.  There are people who object to virtually all aspects of modern medicine.  But I would be inclined to say this would be the lunatic fringe rather than a mainstream opinion.


I have hazel eyes, ligh brown skin or tannish yellow, wavy hair average nose not to pointy not to flat. Does this sound what a biracial might look like i am white dad black mom but do they usually turn out tan or lighter than me.

to be honest, that doesn't necessarily mean that what you look like is what you actually are, its all in the genes.  Some traits will be displayed while others are not, and some people can come out looking only like one race at times.  That certainly is the case with me, physically, I don't think I can pass as anything other than caucasian.


so tell me about suicidal thoughts i have been having them since i was younger does it mean i will do it??? does it mean i actually want to die.... reality is that i am scared of death but i keep wishing i was dead but they got stronger since my son died do i want to die???

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your son.\n\n"Thoughts of death", is something distinct from "suicidal ideation."\n\nThoughts of death does not have to mean that you will go ahead and plan a suicide.\n\nTo use an analogy, thoughts of taking a cruise holiday and daydreaming about it is not the same as deciding to save up for the ticket, going to apply for a passport, buying cloths and packing your bag.\n\nIn your case, while it is true that one can lead to the other, it does not have to be that way.\n\nI would seek out support from those you feel comfortable talking to about this...family or friends, and then I would compliment that support by seeking out a trained counselor, therapist, or even your local GP...all of whom can assist you in understanding these thoughts, and not being fearful that they mean something that they dont, or that they mean you are not in control of your life.\n\nGood Luck\n\nJimmy

You are absolutely right, Jesus did not die on a cross, the King James Bible says he died on a:\n\nActs 5:30  The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.\n\nActs 10:39  And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:\n\nActs 13:29  And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.


please this is an urgent problem for me now

Molecules tumble, at various speeds and in various directions. The energy and orientation of a molecule's tumbling motion is decribed as a rotational state. The great discovery of the 20th century was that these states are quantized. A molecule can spontaneously drop from its current energy state to the next lower one, giving off its excess energy in the form of a photon. This radiation can be observed by radio astronomers. The distribution of molecules among rotational states gives clues about the density and temperature of the gas. The precise frequency and shape of the spectral lines is used to investigate the motions of the gas.


This is a claim made my makers of wool clothing, but I'd like to know if/how it is true.

Ask a sheep!  :)\n\nSee link below:\n\n"Wool is comfortable to wear in both warm and cool climates. This is because wool is an absorbent fiber. When the air is cool and damp, wool absorbs moisture and keeps a layer of dry, insulating air next to the skin. When it's warm, that same absorption capacity takes up perspiration and keeps insulating dry air next to the skin, making the body's natural cooling system work better."\n\nHowever, I agree with those above me -- I wouldn't wear wool in summer.  Sounds uncomfortable.


I quit smoking easily, though taking a year or so, but feel really hard with divorcing YA.

If you are not supposed to work on the Sabbath, why do all of you go out to lunch after church and then to Wal-Mart?  Aren’t you making people break gods commandments " but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates."\n\nWhy isn’t this a big issue like gay marriage when it is in the top ten of things you are supposed to do?

Because there is something seriously wrong with all people who consider themselves conservative christiians, and any other religion for that matter. No matter how high and mighty they think they are, everyone is flawed, and religion causes war.


There arent many jobs avaliable in NYC for 14 year olds to make money. If I lived in the suburbs I could easily babysit, or clean houses but definately not in NYC where people are always cynical, and on edge. Any suggestions?

Well since you are 14, and have to go to school, I would say you need a part-time job after school, like maybe working in a florist, or grocery store, or a gas station, or a pet store...\nYou need things that fit into your school schedule and yet allow for your age so they don't expect an experienced person to apply...


i am going to a weight dr this weekend they says that ear stple acuput will work what do u think

try taboo\nWHAT to eat for losing weight\n\n• Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, especially NC (negative calorie) food.\n\n* Print these lists. They will be your ... "Bible", from now on !\n* Dill and parsely - include them in all your salads. Also ognion + garlic.\n* Try eat mostly fresh vegs & fruits (whenever possible, of course)\n* If you really want a book, then check this out: The Negative Calorie Diet Workbook & Cookbook - eBook (Win95/98 only). Read more about this e-book here.\n\n\n• Eat fish, chicken, beef, pork. (preferences are in this order)\n\n* If you are a vegetarian, then ignore this!\n* Avoid fat meat\n\n\n• Eat 2-3 slices of bread/day. Don't EVER exclude bread from your diet!\n\n• Snacks between meals (if needed): apples, oranges, grepfruits and other NC fruits\n\n* Don't cheat ... NO cookies, chips, candies, brownies etc! \n* EVEN if they have "low fat" indication... They might have low fat, yet they can have lots of CALORIES !!!\n\n\n• About rice, potatoes, beans, [xxx]nuts, pastry, pasta... you know!\n\n* Don't eat too much of those, at least during the first weeks of the diet. I'm not a low carb addict, but I've noticed weight gains if consuming those in large quantities, especially when associated with other foods.\n* If you like them a lot, try and eat them like one meal. A nice delicious plate of spaghetti could be your lunch (never dinner!), followed by a nice big apple. These rich starch foods are not good for dinner!\n* At dinner time, chose mainly large mixed veggies salads... with fish, lean meat or cheese (if you are not a vegetarian). \n\nif u want to lose weight the best food to it are baked potatoes with nothing on it. no salt no nothing just plain. u can eat a 10000000000 baked potatoes till ur stuff and not gain a pound. i heard that from a weight loss tape. the best drink is water or gatorade. thats a start then when you work out do some taeboo. if u want a macine. run with dumbells on a treadmill. u could do the rocky workout. but thats a new story. u could use a butterfly macine i think it works the abs\n\n1) It is not just the amount you eat, but what you eat. Lean meats and vegtables that snap are a good place to start. And by snap I mean fresh and not boiled or doused with better or whatever.\n\n2) Exercise moderatly but for about an hour every other day. Spend half of that walking or running at a good enough pace for you to feel labored. The other half of the time use weights, or exercises such as push ups or situps to get a muscle "burn". A gym is also an option, but I don't know if you have the money for or want to spend the money on it.\n\n3) Sleep well. To bed earlier and up earlier. Exercise in the morning when you wake up, not in the evening before bed. 7 hours of GOOD sleep is a must.\n\n4) Occupy yourself with a hobby that keeps your attention for a long period of time. A hobby like this keeps your mind focused and gives less of a chance for snacking from boredom.\n\nThat is a good place to start... if you see good results, keep it up and modify to fit you... if it does not, see a doctor AND a trainer \n\nKeep working out, drink water a lot, eat 5 to 6 meals a day but in small quantities, vegtables are important specially cucumber and lattice, fruits not be eaten after meals except by 2 to 3 hours, minimize the starch quantities in your meals lots of salad is important, your last meal must be before you sleep by 2 to 3 hours\nthe most important thing is you don't lose patient wait and have a strong will to be as what you want\n\nyou might have some more ideas from www.ivillage.com\n\ngood luck

The Christian Scriptures (New Testament) don't specifically identify Jesus' sexual orientation. The Bible does not say clearly whether Jesus had a heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual orientation. It is silent on whether Jesus was celibate or sexually active; single or married.

there are certain things that have been omitted from the bible to serve the purpose of the catholic church. i think that jesus did throw down with mary magdolin(spelling may be off) there are rumors that he did have children. i don't believe that he was anything more than a man who got some attention in the mis written annuals of time. \ni'm the recovering catholic


The past three weeks have been miserable, I use dr. schol's shoes, with inserts for heels, but my right heel is so sore, it's unbearable to stand on.  What is the cause of this, how can I relive the pain without going to a Dr? Any help appreciated.

EITHER TAKE OFF WORK OR GO VISIT THE DOCTOR.  SOME THINGS YOU HAVE TO SEE THE DOCTOR FOR.  YOUR BODY IS YOUR TEMPLE, TAKE CARE OF IT.


In the 50s the USA needed a scapegoat to blame all its problems on as well as a reason to withdraw freedoms from, and spy on and jail its unwanted citizens. Communism and American communists fit that requirement back then. \n\nNow terrorism and terrorists seem to taking over as the new scapegoat.

Yeah dude.  Plus, you don't know who's a terrorist, so you need to spy on everyone, and report all suspicious activity.  Including these kinds of questions.


i'm 12 years old and i still believe in superpowers. i know it's childish and everything, but what does that mean? what do you think anout it?

if by super powers you mean laser eye beams and bullet speed , you really need to let go of that ... but some people still believe in telekinesis and psychic abilities ...... i can't really put that into a category but its not childish...


Two reasons:\n1] They're people.  As a general rule we're [people] all full of crap.\n2] I suspect you're actually referring to the "religious right" type of Christian.  Dogmatists, Christian or otherwise, are full of crap by necessity.  Were they not, there would be room in their brains for contemplation and internal debate.  But dogmatic people aren't able to do this.  God bless 'em.


if you love someone would you stay knowing that you'll only be hurt?\nor just let go but still it's gonna hurt?

It may feel good to be with them at the time but, when it ends it will hurt far worse than it would if you ended it know. If you know its not going to work out move on and find someone that it will work with.


OMG HES AWESOM FIRST TIME WOW GO CAVS! I AM #1 FAN FOR CAVS AND LEBRON james they beat houston they won cauz of damon jones lebron had 36 points and damon jones has 22 and was 8 from 10 from 3 pointer cavs nab champions!!!!

Yes. I remember a game against the Bulls where the Cavs were down by 2, the Cavs had the last possession, and LBJ was going for a lay up to put the game into OT. Then he finds an open teammate at the 3 pt. line, and he hits the game winning 3. That pass showed me LBJ is a team player.


Assuming  that the Sun has LOst .007 percent of its energy.And the Earth could still be maintaining the same spin.?

Eventually, when energy expendure costs the sun enough mass, according to Newton´s gravitational law, the earth would move away from the sun, but if earth keeps the same orbit (the spin for this matter in irrelevant), it could not be a case where the planet moves away.  It could be compensated by the gravitational pull of other planets and instead og going further away it could simply speed up a little.

The mammals are the class of vertebrate animals characterized by the presence of mammary glands, which in females produce milk for the nourishment of young; the presence of hair or fur; and endothermic or "warm-blooded" bodies. The brain regulates endothermic and circulatory systems, including a four-chambered heart. Mammals encompass some 5,500 species, distributed in about 1,200 genera, 152 families and up to 46 orders, though this varies depending on the classification scheme adopted.\n\nPhylogenetically, Mammalia is defined as all of the descendants of the most recent common ancestor of monotremes (e.g., echidnas and platypuses) and therian mammals (marsupials and placentals).\n\nWhile most mammals give birth to live young, there are a few mammals (the monotremes) that lay eggs. Live birth also occurs in a variety of non-mammalian species, such as guppies and hammerhead sharks; thus it is not a distinguishing characteristic of mammals. Although all mammals are endothermic, so are birds, and so this too is not a defining feature.\n\nA characteristic of mammals is that they have mammary glands, a defining feature present only in mammals. The monotremes branched from other mammals early on, and do not have nipples, but they do have mammary glands.\n\nMammals have three bones in each ear and one (the dentary) on each side of the lower jaw; all other vertebrates with ears have one bone (the stapes) in the ear and at least three on each side of the jaw. A group of therapsids called cynodonts had three bones in the jaw, but the main jaw joint was the dentary and the other bones conducted sound. The extra jaw bones of other vertebrates are thought to be homologous with the malleus and incus of the mammal ear.\n\nAll mammalian brains possess a neocortex. This brain region is unique to mammals.\n\nMammals have integumentary systems made up of three layers: the outermost epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis. This characteristic is not unique to mammals, but is found in all vertebrates\n\nThe epidermis is typically ten to thirty cells thick, its main function being to provide a waterproof layer. Its outermost cells are constantly lost; its bottommost cells are constantly dividing and pushing upward. The middle layer, the dermis, is fifteen to forty times thicker than the epidermis. The dermis is made up of many components such as bony structures and blood vessels. The hypodermis is made up of adipose tissue. Its job is to store lipids, and to provide cushioning and insulation. The thickness of this layer varies widely from species to species.\n\nMost mammals are terrestrial, but a number are aquatic, including sirenia (manatees and dugongs) and the cetaceans (dolphins and whales). Whales are the largest of all animals. There are semi-aquatic species such as seals which come to land to breed but spend the majority of the time in water.\n\nTrue flight has evolved only once in mammals, the bats; mammals such as flying squirrels and flying lemurs are actually gliding animals.\n\nNo mammals have hair naturally blue or green in colour. Some cetaceans, along with the mandrills appear to have shades of blue skin. Many mammals are indicated as having blue hair or fur, but in all cases, it will be found to be a shade of grey. The two-toed sloth can seem to have green fur, however, this colour is caused by algae growths.\n\n[edit]\nOrigins\nMammals belong among the amniotes, and in particular to a group called the synapsids, distinguished by the shape of their skulls, in particular the presence of a single hole on each side where jaw muscles attach, called temporal fenestra. In comparison, dinosaurs, birds, and most reptiles are diapsids, with two temporal fenestrae on each side of the skull; and turtles, with no temporal fenestra, are anapsids.\n\nFrom early synapsids came the first mammal precursors, therapsids, and more specifically the eucynodonts, 220 million years ago (mya) during the Triassic period.\n\nPre-mammalian ears b


i dont really like my name but i love my nick name what about you what do you like to be called!

I use to hate my first name, Chassity, because I got made fun of a lot in school and teachers could never pronounce it right.  My parents called me Chass, and that just makes me feel 5 years old again.  When I went to college I wanted to figure out a new nickname for me that fit my personality.  I thought of Topher Grace from "That 70s Show" and how he used the end of Christopher to make Topher instead of Chris.  That's when I came up with City for my name (then it was Sity).  When I got married I used my new names first enitial, O, and that's where my name came form.\n\nI love my new nickname City O.  It's almost like Jackie O.


I found one at subliminalmessages.com but thats all.


For those who are not familiar with the proper method of cooking frogs, here it is.\n\nYou start with the frog in tepid, lukewarm water . . . you slowly and gradually increase the heat until the water reaches a boil . . . voila . . . the frog is cooked. If you place the frog in a pot of boiling water, the frog will make a quick exit. But, in the tepid/lukewarm water, the frog feels good and does not notice that the temperature of the water is increasing.\nThe Government of the United States was founded upon the basic belief of Christianity and the Christian God.  They have been blessed for this by God, and many symbols, ten commandments, Moses, basic laws, all came out of the Bible.  Many have been cooked into the idea that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater.  Throw Christ out of Christmas, prayer out of schools.  Textbooks when the constitucion was founded were the Bible.  \nThe Question is HAS EVERYONE BEEN COOKED or do a few remain??

I know I won't get the best answer, but I have to reply to this question. Before I begin; I just want to let you know that I too believe in God and Jesus Christ, but I also believe in the freedom of religion. God has given us free will; why can't we give the freedom of choice on religion.\n\nO.k. first of all, this country was not founded on Christianity, but more or less the freedom to choose which religion. See back in the time when this country was founded Christianity ruled the world and some of the people who didn't believe in it was shipped off to the Americas. US did not become a good place to be untill the discovery of gold.\n\nYes, in the past we were more religious then we are today, but it was not all Christian. Our national motto "In God we trust" was added to our original motto during the cold war, because Communists despised religion.\n\nNow with that being said I want to show you that it would piss more Christians off if they taught God in School.  See first of all you have to realize that even though we believe God to be 100% true, science does not. Science has found no proof on the exsistance of a God. With that being said the only way they could teach it in a school is say God is a theory. In other words they would say there is a belief in God, but it is not based on fact. This would piss me off if they taught it to my kids.\n\nNow as for throwing prayer and Christ out of schools, I totally agree with it. In a public school you can not be biased towards or against any religion, that would be prejudism. \n\nDon't complain that your school does not follow your beliefs. If schools went by everybodys beliefs there would be no time to teach.\n\nNow what I have to say to the people who think they need to have them in the schools is simply this: send your kids to a Christian school (they are better taught and have everything you are looking for in a school). That is what they are there for.

Me and my hubby have her all the time,when she does go home,she is back within a few hours. She is the oldest of our 3 grandkids and the others are boys {only 1 lives with her] but i would just like to know why she hates to go home and why i feel so bad when  i make her?

maybe she only gets attention at your house, or feels safe and loved at your house. And if you have her all the time she may be confused and starting to think that grammy and paps are her parents

Kind tell me about the URL from where i can download MS Excel Training in the format of MS powepoint

That's fairly specific, how about in any format!!!\n\nOne place to start is simply the microsoft office websites.  They have training packages that are free, and do somewhat resemble powerpoint.  Past that read your helpfiles, press all the buttons in the toolbar (select some data first), and work on spefic problems.  \n\nI have found some links you can look at to get you started.\n\nAlso if in the UK, i think you can get free if not cheap training through LearnDirect.


We verbally agreed to have our patio and driveway redone by the driveway company.  They sent us the written contract and made an appointment with us to verify the details & sign the contract.  They did not show for the appointment.  The sub-contractors they hired to do the patio began working without our knowledge the other day.  Do I have to pay them since the written contract has not been signed?

that seems to me that you do not have to pay. If a contract is not sign then you don't have to pay them anything. that is my opinion

wats the difference betwween  a magistrates court    and a crown court or indeed other courts

Im presuming that you are referring to the courts of England and Wales. Here is the answer...\n\nApparently the Magistrates court is a subordinate court to the Crown Court and hence one can appeal to the Crown Court even after going through the Magistrates Court.\n\nInterestingly I found this essay (link below) on Crown court and Magistrate Court which was in detail and found differences in even the "Mode of operation" and "Treatment of cases" between these two courts. Guess you should read it before you start on your work.\n\nYes there is court higher to the Crown Court which is the Court of Appeal for certain special categories of appeal.\n\nPlease do read both the links for better understanding. Hope this helps.\n\n.:Fishie:.


They want to do only what they want, sometimes I feel that I am a child, I have to do everything thay want otherwise they get nervous. I am divorced and its hard to do everything good sometimes I feel that I make mistakes being good with them,

Its hard ... but you are still the mother and you will continue to be a good mother. Maybe you haven't changed much with their growing up.

Late  Pope John Paul 11 apologised  to  Jews  for  The Holocaust. Why  cant Whites  emulate him  by apologizing  to   Black  people for  the  many years  they [Blacks] were  subjected  to  slavery  by   Whites?

i have, even though they were my anscestors, i still say, i am sorry that that happened.  My family is black, i am white. it is not a guilt that i neccesarily carry in my own heart, it is just a true and deep human desire for me to say to someone, i am sorry that someone hurt you.\na friend looses a loved one, we say were sorry even though its not our fault the loved one died.\nwhen a race that i happen to belong to dehumanizes another race, just because of skin color? the least i can do is say, im sorry; know that "I" take no pride in that, and know that i see how it has hurt and affected millions.\n\nto those who say, well it wasnt me? it might not have been you, but you would surely say something to a friend who is hurt; \nit places no blame on you directly, takes nothing away from your pride, and promotes human understanding, all in about 3 seconds.

Theres this guy that goes to the same school as me, well he came on to me at the beginning of the school year, then we got together. Problem is he wouldnt tell anybody we dated like he was ashamed of me. My friends kept telling me he was nothin but a sex fiend but I wouldnt listen. Because I really liked him. He called me everyday during the Christmas break and everything. We had kissed and everything he was trying to get me to have sex but I chickened out. And afterwords he wouldnt talk to me anymore. So I called him to see if he was mad he said no. But he still wouldnt give me an explination on why he doesnt talk to me. So we are no longer speaking to each other. Im okay with that I can get over an ex. But this one I need help with. See the problem is we go to school together and its the type of school where we are the same class and we sit three seats apart. And my friends and his friends arent friends so i cant confront him. I see him everyday & it breaks my heart. PLEASE help me!

You are not alone! If any one has gamble in love, then, at one time or another they too, were in this situation.  A few weeks ago I seen a segment on TV about a woman who actually makes her living helping others that have broke up from their mates. This is how devastating a breakup can be.  The first thing she did was make sure the person did not become a couch or bed potato.  She said you have to get back into the world as soon as possible.  I realize that you are more concerned about the daily thing, and seeing him all the time.  Just, get up every morning, always fix yourself up and dress 'hot'.  Lean on your friends when you have to see him or be in the same class with him. Everyone has that one friend that makes you laugh alot, you need her now more than ever. Continue your life as close to normal as possible. Scope out someone else that you might be interested in dating and start conversations with him. You may not be ready, but get ready. Your X will see that your life has not stopped because he walked out. And by moving forward and keeping a good appearance and attitude, he will definitely take notice. I don't if you want him back or not, but moving on to another relation ship always makes the other one feel rejected and if someone else wants you, so does Mr X. You got the power..now, GO GIRL!!!


please describe how. I am having the hardest time finding it

Inside of each cell of the human body is a nucleus.  Inside of it are genes and chromosomes.  Inside of those are complex strands of proteins and amino acids that together are calle deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA.  This DNA contains the "blueprint" for an entire human being.  When two people mate, their DNA gets combined to form a new human, unique but having many characteristics shared by the parents' DNA.  Have you ever heard the term "genetic lottery"?  This is because each time the DNA from two humans is combined to make a third new human, the combination of DNA is to an extent random.  Only to an extent.  I inherited my mother's bad vision and my father's bad teeth.  I inherited my father's nose.  But I am taller than either of my parents.  My hair is a completely different color than either of theirs.  Sometimes DNA, genes, and chromosomes are imperfectly formed.  Each gene controls certain characteristics about a human being.  Completely normal parents can wind up having a baby with Downs' Syndrome (Mongolism, a type of mental and physical retardation).  Completely normal parents can wind up having a dwarf baby.  But other problems are passed down directly from one generation to the next.  Hemophilia is one example, the people whose blood won't clot.  They can bleed to death from a cut.  If they fall they can bleed internally until they die.  Hemophilia is passed down from one generations to the next in the female line.  Queen Victoria, who was related to most of the people of the royal and imperial houses of pre-World War One Europe, was a carrier of the genetic defect of hemophilia.  The women who carry this are usually immune to it.  It is the boys they give birth to that can suffer and die from uninterrupted bleeding due to this genetic defect.  How to prevent one's son from being hemophiliac if one is a female carrier?  Adopt.


Then you end up saying something stupid and they tell you never to talk to them again

Ah,Ah,Ah, your are so well funny and pitafully stupid deserving what ever you get when ever you grow up but you will not, so do this instead, kill your already dead, rotten body and pledge alligence to the "red dragon" with your poor,poor,poor soul.


Outer space is generally black. However, during the big bang and for many years after, there would have been plenty of light. How long did it take the universe to be big enough so that outer space was black due to the absence of light?

According to current estimates, roughly 400,000 years.  This is what we can tell from the data from WMAP, which was launched to measure the microwave background radiation.  It is this radiation that is the leftover glow from when light decoupled from matter, which is the point at which the universe would have "turned black".


I am curious about the various aspects of Marine Intellingence, for example the names of there systems and what they commonly work with, are they capable of communicating with an ASAS ect, or atleast a comprehensive list or some websites (i've tried searching but I can't find any) of the assets that MCIA uses, do they commonly use UAVs? As well how army personnel will be able to work and communicate with marines on intelligence systems.


I read this sentence in an online dictionary, which is given as an illustration of the meaning of the word "charge". What confuses me is the word "director". I feel that if it is removed the sentence would be meaningful; otherwise I cannot figure out what does that word have to do with the rest of the sentence.

It's also my impression that this is a typo, but I'd bet that the typo is in the word "me."  It should have been "my," as in: "He charged my director with indifference."\n\nJust a thought!


She's 9 years old and hold a KITAS , she is a citizen of Australia but living with her Indonesian mother in Jakarta and wish to study in Indonesia, Jakarta in particular.

I suggest you go to the international school in Jakarta, JIS (Jakarta International School) or you may go to some other international or national plus school (e.g. St. Laurensia). I am Indonesian, anyway, but I study in S'pore right now.


I had something corrupted on my hard-drive and couldn't install most software, including any anti-virus programs.  I finally found a trial version online that would install, and discovered I had 26 viruses--after nearly a year without protection, it was no surprise.  I still couldn't install hardly anything, so I saved all my pictures and files to my webpage, and reformatted the computer.  I then installed Norton Antivirus, Microsoft office, and the usual games I've had on the last 3 computers I've owned.  I installed all the Microsoft updates, and waited a month before downloading my pictures and files.  I waited another month before I felt "safe".  Its been almost 4 months now, and my computer is terribly slow.  I have to reboot sometimes 3 times before it will run fast enough to open Explorer in less that 60 seconds.  Then the speed is erratic.  Sometimes it will be too slow to use in the evening, and then run ok in the morning without a reboot.

Ahhh ... where to begin?  Well unfortunately as with most questions of this nature, we simply don't have enough facts to give the panacea that's so sought after.  That being said, a few things come to mind ... a freshly formatted system shouldn't consume an abnormal amount of resources.  Do you have a multi-function printer? (i.e., scanner - fax - printer)  These are unbelievable CPU consumers.  Previous mentions of pictures stored on the hard drive and defragmentation are unlikely culprits ... especially on a freshly formatted system.  Spyware and viruses should be ruled out as well - for the same reason.  These can't survive a drive reformat.  It's entirely likely that your system may be too old to support what's being asked of it.  What is the operating system?  What is the CPU speed?  How much RAM is there?  Is your anti-virus running a start-up scan in background?  Running Windows XP on any machine slower than 1GHz and less than 256MB of RAM is just asking for trouble.  Even though Microsoft minimum recommendations are stated less this - they don't say that it will work but work slowwwwwwwwwwwly.  Without more specifics, it's just too difficult to give an adequate recommendation.  Good luck ...


There's this guy that I'm REALLY trying to impress but it's not working... HELP!

Turn the table and ask him out.   go have a nice quiet dinner and get to know each other.


even though encouraging her hasnt helped at all?

Lot's of experiences like that one... well, one thing that would really help your friend is to constantly praise his/her work. commend everything that was done right. if there are things that must be corrected, do it in a constructive way, and a suggestion will do. In this way, you are building up confidence without making your friend dependent on your opinions or praises. Remember, it's just a balance of praises and constructive criticisms. In the end, your friend will learn how to judge things about her all by herself. Best of all, SMILE! Your smile could actually mean everything.


My parents had split up 3 years ago after 18 yrs of marriage. My dad moved out the same night after an argument. 1 year later, my dad hands my mother a document stating thats the divorce paper. Yet again, she had never gone to a court, nor received any kind of documents by mail, nor signed ANY kind of document before. We went to several courts, but they all say that we ahve to go to a lawyer. Each lawyer that i call wants to charge me. How to find out?

Check the papers he handed you.  There should be a court name on the top (e.g. 2nd division of the x county of y state).  Call that county courthouse clerk's office and ask them if they have a copy of whatever divorce document was handed to your mom.\n\nI'm a bit surprised that no lawyer would give you a free consultation.  Keep checking the phone book - maybe you can get a free legal opinion from an attorney in your state (that would be the best answer).


No Spam Plz\nuseful info and links would be good!

If your contract for employment expired, you are now an at will employee.  This means that either side (you or your employer) can terminate the relationship at any time.  Your employer can fire you when ever he wants for what ever he wants for the most part.  There are some exceptions to this.  The Americans With Disabilities Act would protect you from being fired for being disabled.  The civil rights bill prevents you from being fired for race/religion/sex.  There is a whistle blowers protection that says you can't be fired as a government employee for reporting abuse.  As a private employee the rule is a little more stringent....you have to be reporting the abuse in a department which you supervise.  There are some other exceptions, but on the whole, as an at will employee, you can be fired, or you can quit, at any time.


Well, this was one aspect of my research thesis in Physics of about 10 years ago. The big picture is quite wide, so let's focus on a particular property of classical thermodynamics that is challenged by the chaotic behavior of certain systems: the equipartition of energy.\nClassical thermodynamics tells us that, providing enough time, a system goes to equipartition, i.e. its energy is apportioned in equal parts along all the degrees of freedom. It is well known that the equipartition law has been disproved by quantum mechanics, but until some years ago it was believed a necessary consequence of classical mechanics.\nThe news is that the recent studies (including my little contribution) have shown that there are certain systems for which, under given conditions, neither classical mechanics prescribe the equipartition of energy.\nA class of such systems is constituted by the nonlinear Hamiltonian lattices, that is, N-dimensional spring/mass chains with nonlinear springs. To make it simple, consider that some solid gasses have their atoms stuffed in crystals that can be modeled as such lattices.\nThese systems are classified as chaotic (or also stochastic) for mathematical reasons too complex to be explained here.\nSuppose you freeze Helium at the point that it solidifies. Then you have such a crystal. Its degrees of freedom are the harmonic modes of oscillation of the crystal (just like the harmonic sounds in a guitar string). From the equipartition law one should expect that, after waiting some time, all harmonics go to the same energy. But this is not the case: most energy remains instead concentrated in the lower harmonics. The effect is stronger as the temperature decreases.\nObviously these results are mainly obtained thanks to computer simulations, because the involved equations have no analytic solution.\nSurprisingly, some of these results match with the prediction of quantum mechanics. This is clearly a debated issue but it suggests anyway that the "old-fashioned" classical mechanics has still something to say in modern physics!\n\nLater addition (in relation to the "Additional Details" above): yes, of course I'm speaking of deterministic chaos here, in the mathematical sense (thought it was obvious).

can some1 gimme social, economic and political impacts of what this may cause.

Prostitution is legal in Nevada.  Some argue that prostitution should be legalized everywhere because the way the laws stand now, it denies some men and women the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, in other words, it denies some a right to work in a job that is suited for them.  \n\nMost Americans believe that prostitution is morally wrong, but at the same time, the most prevalent users of prostitutes are middle-class, middle-aged American men.\n\nProstitues in Nevada have an obligation to get regular medical care in order to assure that they are disease free.  Legalized prostitution would eliminate 'pimps' that feed on 'working women' and also deny those women their right to pursue their occupation in freedom.  \n\nPolitically, prostitution will probably not be legalized in the near future because it's a political hot potato and any legislator proposing the legalization of prostitution outside of Nevada would be looked upon with scorn and be ridiculed.

My Confirmation is going to be on April 15

I had an unusual confirmation. . . I was Baptized and Confirmed at the Easter Vigil last year.  Everything happened so fast, but what I remember was I was (and am) very happy.\n\nThe Church was standing room only and I was with 4 other candidates for Confirmation.  Took about 15 minutes to go through the Rite and I remember it was HOT!  Lots of spotlights and the AC wasn't on and nervous (I think that had a lot to do with it).  I would suggest you drink some water before going (I would like to have had something lite to eat, but with the required 1 hour of not eating before the Eucharist it wasn't possible).\n\nIf you have a more detailed question, please feel free to contact me via my profile. (Contact, not IM - at work and no IM here).


Any idea of how to get rid of most stretch marks without plastic surgery or any kinds of surgery?

Stretch marks are basically nothing more than scars.  Any time the body goes through drastic enough physical changes, a skin protein substance called collagen can pull apart from the skin's elastic fibers, and that's when the telltale marks appear.  If you go the doctor's prescription route, there's tretinoin, a topical derivative of vitamin A marketed as Retin-A and best known for its effectiveness at erasing wrinkles.\nTry the link below for detailed information and products for stretch marks.

Well you see, I have been with the father of my son for almost two years now. Recently I have been hanging out with my old old ex-boyfriend...I'm talking about back when I was 15 years old. Well anyways since we have been talking, we have rekindled old feelings for each other.My EX also feels that since we are older now that things will go different now, then back in the day when we was younger. I like hanging around with him and just sitting and talking to him. My boyfriend doesn't know whats going on though. Me and my ex have not had intercourse although I want to, I just don't think I'm ready or that its healthy to go backwards instead of forward. At tymes I find myself unhappy with my boyfriend, and I find comfort in my ex. I don't know I'm confused. I love them both to death...and I want my cake and it eat too..but I know in reality I can't have it like that. PLEASE SOMEONE OUT THERE HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT!!!!!!!!

hi! listen dont go making any harsh decisions str8 away!!!!!\nu only fell differently about each other becuase uv both had time to grow and now that u have u want each other back. but you have to think of the baby and whats right for him, im not saying dont pursue the relationship but were u and ur partner gr8 before ur ex came bak in2 the picture??? if so...sleep on it. it may just be a case of the "what if's"...and ur still in lust with him! think about it and try to put some excitement back in to your love life with your b/f...go out on a date with him again.pretend as if ur both new to the relationship..see how u get on on ur date...have wild fantastic sex with him...go the whole nine yards! if u still think about ur ex...think about ur next move to make...to leave ur b/f or stay. it seems silly i know but most of the time its boredom that leads people to have affairs and stray..dont entertain the thought and you might not feel the same about ur ex!!!!~tasha~


I don't need your prayers people, guaranteed I have more morals than 90% of you religious type anyway. So pray for the person who needs it more, "YOURSELF"..

When it's a perfect stranger who knows nothing of me, yes I do.  Usually that's because it's "I'll pray you find Jesus" which irritates me to no end.  If it's a friend or family member, then they usually ask "Do you mind if I pray for you" and that's ok.   \n\nImagine it this way.  If I came up to someone of a different belief and said "I'll light a candle to Cerridwen or Odin for you", they would be offended and angry.  If I said "I'll cast a spell for you", they'd be offended and angry.  But, I'm supposed to be fine with people I don't know telling me they'll pray for me.   No, I don't like it.  Worry about the people who sleep in the streets with no food or warm clothing. They need your prayer way more than I do.


And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that [was] in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.\n\nI wonder what is the difference between this "god" and the king Herod?.. after all, both kill children to try to keep the power.

Nope,it's one of those passages that I disagree with.What you quoted was one of many unethical verses in the bible.I don't believe or follow everything I read.

what would you recommend to someone with a thyroid problem to do everyday(exercise)to help lose weight.  (we have to always be moving, but what will help.

I would first reccomend that you talk to your Doctor about getting medication to help your thyroid problem.\n\nAfter that, I think running is the best way to lost weight.  It keeps your metabolism up, your heart rate up, and the more you sweat, the more you lose!\n\nStart off small, run maybe 1/2 mile, and add another 1/2 mile every week or every 2 weeks.


What are the revelations the Quran mentions about the Bible,Torah,Zabur and others,because from what I know they were written by men and not revealed by anybody,even the ten commandments of Moses was a carving,so who benefits from the voluntary submission in Islam?

cleanliness and hygiene, nothing else. \n\nmy interpretation of submission is submitting to the laws of nature.. submission to humanity's collective responsibility of God's vicegerant on our little planet in this inifinitely vast universe.. explore and search to know what is there to know and create. \n\nas for all religious texts, all were relevant in their time, so was Quran. Muhammad was a very wise guy. he was attempting to convince a polytheistic tribal ppl. he explained and framed the laws as were appropriate for his time and societal context.. rituals were to inculcate a sense of discipline, accoutability and belonging. To quote Carlyle, his mission was to establish a welfare state, which he accomplished in his liftime.. and that is the message of Islam: Justice, Freedom, Equality and Opportunity for all. \n\nYou asked me in response to my question about God that what is my contribution to society? well, am a cultural Muslim, Freethinker at heart, used to consider myself a liberal but still accepted the dogmas. Got skeptical on the ontological problems and today am transformed. Freethinker and Deist. In a very sensitive society towards religious dogmas (karachi, pakistan), i challenge all sacred cows.. accept no authority over my intellect and reason and my capacity to lead a useful life.. i provoke and intrigue ppl into doubting every where i go.. for which am discriminated all the time.. sorta gadfly u know :) \n\nTo me, religions are control systems that emerged from the system/process that God started to help us at that particular level of intellectual evolution. there is purpose to creation although we cant figure out what that purpose is at our current level of intellect. All religious texts are inspired but relevant in time.. all religions got corrupted with time and so did Islam.. today's religions are nothing but authoritarian, dominionist creeds and so is the popular islam.. I strongly oppose Shariah and contend that modern secular humanist values are the best manifestation of human intellect. This I debate every where..


I graduated with a degree in SPED, realized I am terrified of being in a classroom or around children/students of any sort.  I have been working as an "Office Administrator" for the past two years, but I don't want to do this forever.  I just don't know exactly what I'd like to do.  I have too many interests to count and have a hard time choosing one to focus in on.

When I was younger I didn't know what I wanted to focus on either. The thing I love to do the most - writing - is what I'm focused on right now. That's not to say I'm earning my living from it - yet - I'm working towards that goal. You'll find as time goes on that some interests will wane and others will come to the fore. What do you love the most? What are you best at? Given that every thing you do will have some negative areas what thing do you enjoy doing day in, day out?


I need to know who played in it and when it was

the game of basketball was invented by a Canadian named James Naismith. After serving as McGill's Athletic Director, James Naismith moved on to the YMCA Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA in 1891, where the sport of basketball was born. In Springfield, Naismith was faced with the problem of finding a sport that was suitable for play inside during the Massachusetts winter for the students at the School for Christian Workers. Naismith wanted to create a game of skill for the students instead of one that relied solely on strength. He needed a game that could be played indoors in a relatively small space. The first game was played with a soccer ball and two peach baskets used as goals.\n\n  Not much is known about the original players themselves.

Has anyone experienced weight gain while being on antidepressants, and if so which one?

The answers above kind of summarize the answer. It depends what anti-depressant your on. Each person responds a little different to different medications. Some people will report no side effects, others have lots. If you are concerned about the weight gain, I'd talk to your prescribing physician and ask if there are alternative medications that he/she feels would be help and may not cause you to gain weight. Many of the newer anti-depressants (e.g., Effexor) have less side effects.
