If i were king. Which I am not but if I was I would give all illegals a time frame to turn themselves in.  In exchange I we would give a hard look at making these illegals, legal.  I would also build a wall in the south to cut down on the 250 that enter through the south daily.  Borders are just that we must secure them.  I would also greatly encourage our south american neibors to secure there own borders as well.  i would even  provide aid to those countries for this project.  Listen, this country is great because of its diversity but our constant struggle to be diverse should never outweigh the law or our national sercurity.

NOW IF I WAS YOUR TEACHER, I WOULD DEFENETLY FAILED YOU.\nHERE IS WHY:\n\nFIRST OF ALL THIS COUNTRY IS NOT RUN BY A KING, IS RUN BY A PRESIDENT. A KING IS A DICTATOR,, A PRESIDENT SHARES HIS OPINIONS WITH HIS PEOPLE.\nIF YOU MADE EVERYONE HERE LEGAL, YOU WOULD JUST OPEN THE DOOR FOR EVERYONE TO COME HERE............\nYOU SHOULD HAVE A BALANCED OF ILLEGALS AND LEGALS...


Is there a formula based on your their past earnings or is it a set amount? Assume two children under the age of 18. Thanks.

It is a formula based upon past earnings and years of work.  To recieve anything there is a minimum amount of work that has to have been performed first in terms of calendar quarters of work.  That number is pretty low I believe.  Social Security sends a notice each year of how much money that would be.


what kind of question is this? you could start a conflict with this, a war even. Islams are completely misunderstood. Do not judge based on your ignorance. And to answer the guy upstairs, Islam isn't the root of terrorism. Everyone is entitled to be a terrorist.


Without more information; such as the size of the job and what type of trenching. I can only give you two words; TIME & MATERIALS


I'm not young. I'm well over 30 already. How common is it to be asexual?

yes you are an asexual person but not in all meanings of the word, you have sex organs so you are not completely asexual. It's not common at all most people are sexual in some way or form whether it be hetero homo or bi. kind of cool though, you have to be a very confident person not having to worry about how other see you.


My lover / "boyfriend" and I have been hanging out since New Years.  He is moving on the 19 of Feb and I don't seriously think we will continue seeing each other.  He's moving to the west coast and I'm staying on the east coast.  Should I get him something for valentines day?  I don't think he is serious about me or the the relationship.  He didn't even call to tell me happy birthday  last week.

Don't 'be a card', and try to rekindle a burnt-out fire - by sending this bum a greet or gift ! [That's at least 5 to 25 dollars saved !]\nLet West be West, and East remain East - and do not waste ur time, imagining that this 'twain shall meet' once again !\nJust forget about this soul-less guy, and move on with ur own life : There are plenty of nice, decent and thoughtful men still around - for u to pick and choose one from !\nCheers !


That means Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. He's an osteopath, which is one of several "alternative" forms of medical practice. The conventional doctor (an MD) is an allopath...a doctor of allopathic medicine.\n\nThe American Academy of Osteopathy's position is that they are not "alternative," but many allopaths disagree.\n\nThat said, you can find DOs just about anyplace you find MDs, and they are increasingly indistinguishable. ERs have 'em, and so do many specialty practices. I've encountered a bunch of them as a paramedic, and they're good docs.\n\nThe main idea behind osteopathy is a focus on an entire person, rather than individual symptoms, and an emphasis on "manipulation," mostly of joints, as a way to heal.\n\nFrom the Academy's website:\n\n"DOs use what is called osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). OMT is a technique in which the DOs use their hands to diagnose injury and illness, giving special attention to the joints, bones, muscles, and nerves. Manipulations improve circulation, which in turn, creates a normal nerve and blood supply, enabling the body to heal itself."

What can I do I have taken tylenol and motrin Now I have a head ache I am a single mom and a little scared Even if i went to the dr I wouldnt be able to pay for the medicine  Is there something i can do

I know at the hospital here they have payment plans even programs that will pay the bill for you, if you do go (which is sounds like you should) tell the nurses and doctors that you do not have ins. they will either give you some to take home or give you some thru a IV to be taken there... I hope you feel better..


I was eating pudding earlier and I looked in the spoon and saw that I was upside down...I have been known that your reflection in a spoon is upside down...but WHY???

Not to sound like a nerd, but since it is at an angle higher than that of your face, it reflects your light pattern (Your face) in an upside down angle. To make a long story short, its like a fun house mirror. Try tilting it at different angle and maybe you will see yourself right side up!

I need to stop being shy espeically when giving a speech, that will make me very nervous.

Get ready with your speech beforehand Try giving the sppech in front of your close friends. Do formulate your strategy like what will be the beginning, the middle and lastly the conclusion. Try modulation of your voice  which sentence to speak forcefully and which in lower tone.

HIV does not survive well outside of the human body. This really smells like an urban legend.


<Sacagawea was born to a tribe of Shoshone near what is now Lemhi County, Idaho. However, in 1800, when she was about 11 or 12, she was kidnapped by a group of Hidatsa, and taken to their village near the present Washburn, North Dakota. She therefore grew up culturally affiliated with this tribe; some believe her name is taken from the Hidatsa phrase for "Bird Woman." She was named so because when she was born a flock of white birds flew overhead. The origins and proper pronunciation of her name has become a great point of controversy and contention among interested historians.\n\nAt the age of about sixteen she married a French trapper, Toussaint Charbonneau, who was also currently married to another Shoshone woman. Two accounts survive of Charbonneau's acquirement of Sacagawea: (1) he purchased both from the Hidatsa as wives.Sacagawea was pregnant with their first child when the Corps of Discovery arrived in the area to spend the winter of 1804/1805. Needing someone to interpret the Hidatsa language, Lewis and Clark interviewed Charbonneau for the job. Although they were not exactly impressed with him, the deal was sealed when they discovered that Sacagawea spoke Shoshone, a great advantage. She would become valuable in her role as interpreter. (2) It is also believed that she was won by her husband in a card game. Today millions of monuments are dedicated to Sacagawea. Also thousands of programs such as musicals are about Sacagawea's journey with Lewis and Clark.


I have a toshiba satellite pro 6100 is there any way to connect to the tv without using s-video or vga

you can use the following adapters depending on what you want your output to be:\n\ns-video to coposite (RCA) \nVGA to composite (RCA)\nVGA to component (RGB)\ns-video to component (RGB)


There are lots of commercial services that will do this for you.  Do a search for mailing lists physicians on the internet and you will find something.  \n\nIf you don't need to hit everyone, and want to do it on the cheap, you can just do a search in the Yellow Pages under Physicians and mail out.  That won't give you fax numbers, and will miss the people who aren't in the book, but you might get 60%.


i am getting 81 in physics 87 in accounting , 86 in chemistry and 62 in english ? My average is just 79 (grade 11). Do u think i have done good this semester?

If the English scores are not important for your future applications (for higher studies), then you seem to be doing pretty well. The average for the other 3 subjects is over 84, which is not too bad.

i have below average grades in my graduation in computer science,and i want admission in a reputed college/university in USA in the field of computer-science(computer vision). Is there any such reputed US university which evaluates me only on my GRE score?i am alot confussed as i cant figure out such a univerity till now.... as i have heard that Yale, Harvard,MIT,Georgia Tech...all such highly reputed universities reject applicants with below average marks in graduation(only) and no further evaluations/proceedings are done ...?????

There is no university on US or in the world that will evaluate you only by your GRE score, this is rather impossible. I have seen people with 1520 GRE and 293 TOEFL not being accepted on MIT and others with 1200 and 230 being accepted. The letters of recomendation and your academic honors and publications are MUTCH MORE important. The GRE and TOEFL scores works for a competitive basis, if you get a too low score they are not even going to review your application. But if you get high scores they´ll probably review, but with no STRONG letter of reccomendations, honors or publications at undergraduate work they will probably disconsider you as a candidate. If you have a low GPA this is not the end of the world, since you complete the other requirements above average. Good luck.

Evere feel out of place? Well recently I did and these people bearucratically came against me over it. It was something I have had for 7 YEARS! Now that I work in an official copacity, it feels like I am OWNED by the system now that I am employed by it. YUK! But they play GOD because they hold my paycheck!ARGGGG! The issue came up and they just like flys on honey or something sour were all over me! Good grief! I am a person, an individual! I spent 9 years in the millitary being anel retentive as Sigmond Frued put it. Now here I am again in another "Para Millitary organization" only this time they are Anel to the max! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I am a 31 year old woman who aside from wearing a swimsuit leaves my private areas natural.  It seems to me that the trend now is for grown women to make themselves look like my six year old daughter.  I am wondering if there is a legitimate reason behind this or have most of the men in the world become peophiles?

It is all a personal choice issue.  I think mostly it is one of those things everyone should try and find out for themselves.  As a guy the fur in the mouth hasn't ever bothered me but I know some guys get freaked out by it.  I also try to keep my area shaved because I know some women freak out about it also.  I've also known some women who have found that shaving allows for more sexual stimulation of the area and that they experience a lot more sensation down there when there is no hair in the way.  Regardless I still say go with what makes you feel best about you.


when we add conc.sulphuric acid to bromine salt,why bromide gas is evolved but not HBr?

When I was a kid I was afraid of my grandfahter's friend because he was so scarey looking to me, a few yrs ago I remember thinking back on that and I remembered the look on his face when I start crying when he was around and it was the look of hurt because me being afraid of him meant I thought he was so ugly he scare little kids, and it didn't help that others would laugh at the fact that I was afraid of him,he's dead now, but if I had the chance to talk with him  b 4 he dead I would say how sorry I am for crying when he'd come around and that Im sorry for making him feel so bad I hope that he's N heaven now and he's handsome and making others around him happy =-)

Hi itstight38@s...,\nI'm sure your grandfathers friend knows how you feel and all is forgiven. My answer to your question is on the day my 12 year old son was killed he asked me if he could stay home from school and I told him no. There are times I wish I could take it back but in my heart I know that when God calls you home there is nothing we can do but except it. I know where my son is and I know he's in a better place than I am and I hope God will let me see my son again when it's my time to go home. Thanks: Blueladybug


people say they will belive there is a GOD if they can see him , but God is a spirit, and not all things that can be seen are seen with human eyes. the truth is we will never see him untill we die, but my question is what would you expect to see if he revealed himself to you on earth? or what would it take to bring you down so far the only way you could see is up?

Think about it, why should WE (meaning YOU & me) pay for them to live here?\nThere are plenty of people here legally that can do "the jobs we don't want"\nOne of our local police dept's has started a campaign against illegals by arresting them for trespassing if caught in their town!

Hi people. My question is After I do the root canal is that going to relieve my pain in my molar top backtooth? The reason I ask this is because I have pain right now and it hurts so I can't chew anything right now. thank you!

That is the beginning of fixing it.  In addition to having the root canal done, you are also going to need to have a crown placed.  Then your tooth will be as good as new.  :)

Considering that we get twice as much oil from Canada than we do from the middle east. If Bush wanted oil, he would have gone to Canada. It would have been a much easier fight,lol(no offense to Canadians). Answer intelligently, dont just call President Bush names, especially when they are completely unfounded.

Look at the first answer. This is why you cannot take Liberal whockos seriously. The ASSUME they KNOW an answer, just because they have some stupid and ill advised preconceived notion. "The war is about oil" "We get most of our oil from the Middle East" etc. The combination of Canada and Mexico more than doubles our import totals from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Kuwait (the top 3 Middle Eastern countries from which we import Crude Oil, and the only 3 in the top 15 countries from which we import oil)\n\nIn actuality Canada IS the top country from which we import crude oil. The majority of our crude oil imports will continue to come from the Western Hemisphere for the forseeable future.\n\nCANADA 1,892 1,776 1,642 1,556 1,616\nMEXICO 1,707 1,658 1,550 1,552 1,598\nSAUDI ARABIA 1,438 1,267 1,438 1,449 1,495\nVENEZUELA 1,183 1,009 1,231 1,379 1,297\nNIGERIA 1,174 1,163 1,060 1,006 1,078\nANGOLA 425 641 450 306 306\nIRAQ 390 572 520 626 655\nECUADOR 340 264 276 261 232\nKUWAIT 268 273 215 205 241\nALGERIA 212 265 228 199 215\nBRAZIL 159 65 94 0 51\nGABON 139 66 127 233 142\nCOLOMBIA 135 281 156 135 142\nNORWAY 66 103 119 63 143\nTRINIDAD AND TOBAGO 62 70 62 22 49\n\nWe are not in Iraq for oil, nor were we ever. We were first there because of the invasion of Kuwiat, and we helped answer the call of the Kuwaiti people for assistance. We are there now to finish the job because of the violations of the cease fire agreement that ended hostilities from the military action from Desert Storm.\n\nAs evidenced by the actual documentation...\n\nThe Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 (Public law 107-243, 116 Stat. 1497-1502) was a law passed by the United States Congress authorizing what was soon to become the Iraq War. The authorization was sought by President George W. Bush. It passed the House on October 10 by a vote of 296-133, and by the Senate on October 11 by a vote of 77-23, obviously receiving a limited amount of support from Democrats, and must be considered an overall unsupportive vote when compared to the "war vote" for the Second World War and other more poplularly supported conflicts. It was signed into law by President Bush on October 16, 2002.\n\nThe Resolution cited several factors to justify a war:\n\n* Iraq's noncompliance with the conditions of the 1991 cease fire


I share a schedule and a desk with a co-worker and he continually leaves his garbage in the trash can under the desk,  Chicken bones, cheeze and peppers and dripping containers of all sorts and smells.  When I arrive I have to clean up his mess.   I am not his mother.  I have told him several times and he continually does it.  How can I get through to him?

If the smell doesn't bother him, doing the same to him won't bother him either.  I say, if you've spoken to him several times about it to no avail now it's time for drastic measures.\nIf you don't mind the confrontation that will definitely happen, either take the basket and sit it ON TOP of his side of the desk for him to find. Or dump it directly onto his chair.  He may get mad but then he should realize how his trash is affecting you.\nGood luck.

I will pay the going rate of ten percent finders fee for every gig we play. We do not want to play beer joints, or heavy drinking establishments but will consider certain clubs. This booking agent must work closely with me to ensure that we are all on the same page and also to make sure we don't miss any gigs. You will also attend at least one concert every other month to see what kind of venues you are sending us to, you can attend more if you like.\nAlso would be nice if you were available for promotions at some of the gigs.

I bet you 10 points that no one knows heck try the yellow pages.

Me and my friend like each other but we don't have good communicating skills so he decided we shouldn't date. but he still is cool with me and wants us to be friends but it is really hard for me so i act really cold towards him because i really don't know what to do. so should i just push him away as everything even a friend?

you act really cold toward him? that does sound like a communications problem. if you can't talk to this person there won't be a friendship. just move on.


I don't wanna sound like a dope, but were the Allies in WWI?

The Allies in WWI were almost the same Allies in WWII. Here's the Wikipedia entry on the matter:\n\nWorld War I, also known as the First World War, and (before 1939) the Great War, the War of the Nations, and the War to End All Wars, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice (cessation of hostilities) on November 11, 1918.The Allied Powers (led by Britain, France, and, later, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by Germany, Austria and the Ottoman Empire), and led to the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe.

It never fails that everyday between 1 and 3pm I get extremely tired. I get so sleepy that sometimes I even find myself lying down and falling asleep. I try not to let that happen because when I wake up I'm really grouchy. Usually, if I force myself to stay awake it only lasts for those two hours. Is this normal? Should I let myself fall asleep and try not to be so grouchy or should I do something to help me stay awake?

It happens to me and some friends. And it doesn't help if that period is right after lunch. I find that drinking cold water (not soda) and taking a walking break outdoors do me a lot of good. It's even better to have a "sleepy partner" to take the walk with you so you guys can talk and laugh.


Consider a 95.0 kg circus freak sitting on top of a compressed spring at the bottom of a 5.50 m long, hollow, cylindrical, frictionless cannon barrel. The spring is compressed 2.75 m from its equilibrium position and has a spring constant of 6850 N/m. If the cannon barrel is directed 38.0° above the horizontal predict freak’s:\n\n \n\nA.      height at the apex of her parabolic trajectory.\n\nB.       horizontal range during freefall.\n\nC.       final velocity just before hitting the ground.

Well I wont solve it for you \nbut I will help you. \n\nThese problems always involve the equation \ns=s0+v*t+(at^2)/2\n\nwhere s is displacement\nv is speed\nand a is acceleration\n\nNow you will always have acceleration of gravity g\n\nbut when the freak comes out of the canon, they will have a certain velocity. \n\nThey will be accelerated as the spring releases its energy, and then leave the barrel with a constant velocity, at that angle. \n\nThey will have a horizontal velocity and a vertical velocity. \n\nso you will need two equations\n\nx= Vx *t + .5*Ax*t^2\n\nand y=Vy*t+.5*Ay*t^2\n\nOne for vertical travel, and one for horizontal travel\n\nThe horizontal travel will will assume Ax=0 (not really true, but close enough)\n\nThe vertical travel, assume Ay=-g, acceleration of gravity. \n\nTo find the speed out of the barrel at the start, \n\nremember Hooke's law\n\nF=kx. \n\nSo you know k and you know x, so you know F\n\nYou also know Newton's 2nd law, F=ma.\n\nSo you know a =F/m\n\nNow you have to find the velocity V. \n\nAs the spring releases, it accelerates the freak with acceleration a. The only question is, over what distance is this acceleration acting? \n\nWell one idea is that it acts over the compressed distance. Another idea is that it acts over 2 times the compressed distance, since it will oscillate in approximately simple harmonic motion, and will continue to push that entire distance. I would guess the latter.\n\nSo put this in \n\ns=.5*at^2, \nand compute t\n\nFrom t, you can figure out the speed at launch: \n\nV=a*t\n\nSo you have the initial velocity V, which you can resolve into vertical and horizontal components, and then figure out how long it takes the freak to return back to the ground, and in that time, how far will the freak travel horizontally. \n\ngood luck\n\n- - - - - - - - - -\n\nkirchwey is correct. The same force is not applied through the entire distance that the spring oscillates. The force F=kx is the maximum force, only at the beginning of the freak's acceleration. I was thinking about that so I returned to this problem (it has been a long time since i did these problems). \n\nThe simple way to address this is to assume that all of the potential energy of the spring .5*k*x^2 is imparted to the freak, and turned into the freak's kinetic energy, .5m*v^2. \n\nAs kirchwey points out, there might very well be a new equilibrium position for the spring due to the freak's weight, or at least the component of the freak's weight that is projected along the axis of the tube. If the spring was not at all compressed by anything but the freak's weight, then if the spring was "released" the freak would not go anywhere. What one has to decide is, is the equilibrium point the problem mentions the equilibrium point for an unloaded spring, or the spring with freak compressing it a bit. Whatever you decide will determine how you solve this problem. I would try it both ways and see what the different answers are (they should not be too different because the freak does not weigh that much, relative to the spring force).


A buddy and I  would like to start a coffee shop/ music venue in a growing ohio town and need start-up capital, We are currently exploring sba loans and investors but We could use all the ideas we can!

$500K sounds like alot to start a coffee shop/music venue. What I would do is find a location and try talking to the landlord about helping to finance the deal. If you have a good business plan and can show how the improvements to the property would benefit the landlord, he/she might be interested. Happens all the time. \n\nFind a dealer in used equipment instead of new to cut your costs. Often times supply companies in the restaurant biz will finance the used equipment on favorable terms, because chances are they just repossessed it from a failed business. They are often receptive to investing in start up businesses that have potential.\n\nOther than that start going after friends and relatives. But you really need to sharpen your pencil and cut the start up costs way down. Maybe start smaller and expand as cash flow improves. Coffee shops alone are a tough way to make a buck unless you are Starbucks who buys everything cheaper than you can and has systems in place to squeeze profits out. They also have such great brand recognition that people who don't even really like coffee go there anyway.


Why aren't police allowed to entrap people?  Is it in the Constitution, a Supreme Court decision, or what?

An interesting question.\n\nFirst: I might be completely wrong, and if I am I hope someone comes along and clears this up.\n\nBut: I don't think there is a law that specifically prohibits entrapment.  \n\nHowever: there is a successful defense to a crime if the government enticed the defendant into committing a crime the defendant would not have normally committed.  So, by virtue of the fact that you would be found not guilty if you can prove entrapment, there is, for all intents and purposes, a "law" that prohibits it.\n\nI can't tell you what that's based on, but I don't think the Constitution specifically addresses it.  I think it's probably more just a matter of fairness (courts are not going to let the government entice citizens into committing crimes).


I have naturally curly hair, just so you know.

I prefer natural beauty.  I want to be attracted to a girl when I wake up next to her in the morning, and see the same person at the end of the day.\n\nDon't like... fake nails, hair extensions, lots of makeup... Too much maintenance, and not "real".\n\nTo answer the question... it depends on what looks good on you... but just because "the fad" right now is straight hair... ANY decently smart guy would date (and like) a girl with curly hair if she's a good catch.\n\nJust be yourself, and be who you want to be.\n\nA little variety is good too.  Do you feel like a straight day, or a curly day?


I'm in an all boys school, and of course i love dancing, im an atlete as well, so to mix it all up, i'm really want to be a cheerleader. So hu's gonna cheer for our school? and why is it there is an all-girls squad? and why is it in co-ed schools, there are males in a squad? and we all know that a squad has a broader limit and can do anything if there are boys around. and i think, it's not a shame boys will cheer and dance, in fact, dancing is something we dancers must be proud of. So you what do you think? and besides it's unique....

I think that they should because cheerleading is not only for girls


i'm already in university in the philippines. i have average grades, but i want to try getting a scholarship for a second degree or extended studies in the US. does it matter?

It definately helps, there are a lot more scholarships open for those with 3.5+ or 4.0 grades than 3.0.  There are still scholarships available to those in need and to those who may have had average grades in the past, just not as many.


Are atheists fearful that it might be claimed that they are "just as bad as the Christians" (in their eyes)?  Essential to Christianity is the necessity to tell others about their faith.  Atheists, however, have nothing to lose from the idea of "live and let live."  Why are atheists defensive about their refusal to believe Christianity?  Why are they intolerant of listening to the Christian message?\n\nSEE THE FOLLOWING QUESTION:\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqJLBcPxQk3i7C3zVvtxuarsy6IX?qid=1006022410221

Here goes...\n\nAtheists along with many modern beliefs are very open and inviting and accept all with any belief you have or want to have. Hmmm that sounds an awful lot like that wide gate aye? \n\nChristians know that Christ is the only way. And that you must surrender all to enter this narrow gate.\n\nHere we have two very different world views. But both have their very own belief. Christians share their belief with others. Atheists share their belief with others. The Atheistic belief that there is no God is non threatening so its okay to share. The Christian belief convicts and demands a response. Unbelievers dont like to hear that someone else believes that they will spend an eternity of absence of God (hell) if they dont serve Christ. Christians dont like the idea of spending eternity rotting in a grave.\nBoth are somewhat offensive outcomes to the one who doesnt believe.\n\nDont they have a right to be intolerant? I mean after all we are going to be in a wonderful place for eternity. And they think that they are going to rot in a wooden box 6 feet under. And we are trying to tell them that it is actually worse than that....\n\n**** Oh and btw.... About statistics, they left out how only about only 14% of Christians say they believe in Jesus' deity, the trinity, the bible... and other things very important to the Christian walk.


I would like to apply for studying one year at Dublin in the course of General English Language \nSo I ask which procedure I must to take for applying study visa at Ireland embassy in Amman Jordan

You need to go to the Irish embassy in your country if there is one. If you want to study for more then three months you need to ask for a 'D study visa'\n\nA good website is www.oasis.gov.ie. Click on 'moving country', then click on 'passports and visas' and then click on 'student visas to study in Ireland'


how can i extract words to microsoft word from a scaned document for free? can i print on the scaned document in certian areas? (i have a copyer/printer and scanner)

You scanner should have come with software to extract text (it's called OCR software). If the scanner's software isn't installed and you don't have the CD try downloading it at the scanner's manufacturer's website. If the manufacturer doesn't offer the software try searching Google for "free OCR software", or go to other scanner manufacturer's websites and see if you can download it free from them--since most of this software extracts text from a picture file, not directly from the scanner.\n\nAs for printing in certain areas, I have never seen software that lets you do this easily, but it probably exists. If it does exist, I would imagine it would use a picture file, not a text file. Try searching Google for it if the OCR software you find doesn't have this feature. \n\nJust remember to put the paper in the printer the right way. ; )

Would like to know how solar power works. Also what does it takes to build one. How much is the cost. How much will it produce In savings from the electric companys. Is bigger always better. Can we sell this back to the electic company? Sure hope someone can help me. I believe this could make alot of money and also help us become more indepanted.

Well, I applaud your ingenuity but that is already being done albeit not in massive amounts.  It is also more expensive to build a house that is solar powered but people are doing it here and there and in the long run, it does save money.  All the info you need is on the net but I doubt you can build from scratch.  You'd have to purchase kits from companies that produce solar panels and generators.

http://www.craigslist.com has lots of room for rent opportunities, but they tend to be for major metropolitan areas only.  See what they have for the area you live and stat from there.\n\nAlso, check out if there is a local women's shelter that can help you out - they often have resources to help women get out of abusive situations.\n\nIf there is a college in or near your town, visit it's student center and look for a bulletin board for roommate wanted ads.  Community colleges and grad schools will tend to have more adult students looking for roommates and thus might be a more accomodating to your kid.  Plus, you're a lot less likely to end up in an apartment with parties keeping you and your daughter up all night.\n\nAlso, make sure your coworkers know your situation.  It might be uncomfortable to bring up, but you'd be surprised how supporting people can be.  If people know you're looking, you'll find that there are very high chances that a friend of a friend is in a similar situation.\n\nHope this helps!


Like, in the game of football, what would the strategical differences and positional differences including what the different positions have to do and react to differnet things, just overall, how would they differ?

The strong safety is lined up on the strong side- that which has more players towards that end of the field ( uslally denoted by a Tight End or H-back).\n\nThe strong safety's coverage is usally to double team the deep man on a pass play to their side of the field.\n\nThe free safety is lined up on the weak side of the field and has more roaming ability.  The free safety is usally the one that will blitz when a saefty blitz is called.\n\nDepending upon the defensive scheme, the free safety and the strong saftey are interchangeable as far as coverage resposiblities, the only difference in name terminology is that one lines up on the strong side of the field and one lines up on the weak side.


Has any one of you been asking him self about our poor planet how much time will support us? Do you know or think about the poluation of each car and power plant? Of what it does to our planet? From a song that I was listening to I started thinking about this. When we will be surronded by rocks, we will see that we can feed on money. I for one, see a black future for our children, a new ice age, or worst, a third nuclear war...

All Trillions of Human Beings on Earth have to do is recycle, replant trees after cutting down trees, order from "The Goods" Catalog (solar, wind, water energy housing/self-sufficent equipments, clothings, devices, homes),  stop buying plastics, study geography - astronomy -, trade their automobles for solar powered cars and covered wagons / covered carriages pulled by horses, trade tractors for clydesdales, grow their own gardens, buy organic vegs, meats and diary products directly from farmers and tell their children's schools to teach self-agriculture ( ask their or your teacher to name 10 edible plants in their own backyard. I guarantee you they don't know !)...do all this instead of playing the roles of modern-day doomsayers.


AND if they audit you, can you just say, let's forget the deductions and refile with the standard deduction.  If they question any of the deductions, say you can't find all the receipts (even though they are legit) Seems like a simple solution to me.  Would they let you do that?  Ya think?

The IRS chooses 1% of returns at random for auditing.\n\nThey use the information from those returns to develop rules that lead them to people likely to cheat, and audit likely cheaters in addition to the random picks.

Do you know if there is a problem related to drink energizing beberages like red bull?

I drink it weekly and find it is somewhat addictive like coffee.  Besides the extra calories, there are no studies that suggest that drinking one a day is hazardous to your health, but like anything else, everything in moderation is the key.  Watch out for the addictive properties, ensure you're physically active and have a good diet.  Check with your Doctor for further consultation.

I am sitting here wondering about something, I recently started dating a girl whose not on the same social, or economic level as I am, in other words she and her family are so poor they can't afford to pay attention! We have gone on dates and seem to be happy when we are together, but one of her girlfriends recently told me, that she is unhappy, Apparently she is unhappy with us, because she and some members of her family feel that I am gloating or showing off that I am better off, that I make them feel down when I pick her up in a nice car, and that she feels like I'm showing off when I bring her to my house and she see's that I am well off. I asked her and she said that it was true and it led to a fight, she said that I do not understand and probably never will. Why do women act like this and should I just forget about it and dump her broke tail and get on with my life?

It's just her lack of self esteem. Comming from a poor family also. I can relate. You have money and so you tend to take it for granted. are you earning the money your self? If not try getting a job and working for it and you may understand her a bit better.

What do you think about Express Scripts, Inc. Mail Order Pharmacy?

An elderly friend of mine gets a good discount with Express Scripts (along with her other insurance) but finds the customer service extremely unreliable.  First, filling out forms to order a prescription can be confusing for someone elderly and in pain.  Then, when calling for customer service, there is a likelihood that you will get completely different answers each time you call about one problem.  I think this is called lying.  I wonder about the qualifications of the people running the operation.\n\nNonetheless, you can save money if you are not really worried that the medicine may not arrive in time.

Bush makes the comment, "Iraqis' choice is 'chaos or unity"; yet if he researched their culture and religous belifes, he would've known that the process was extreamly delicate for American hands. He rushed in shouting "Democracy or die" and they looked at him like a foolish man, with little religious ground. Now their is civil war going on and he's blaming it on them. The country knew what they had, now it's a matter of time before they figure out what to do. And our nations going to leave out the back door, like we didnt start the conflict.

Bush brings chaos to anything he touches. He really should be deported to Iraq, and made to serve with those that he sent to their deaths for a made-up cause.


Ask him out for coffee or something like that so that he gets the message that you're interested.

I had a 2nd date with a guy on Sunday & he said he'd call me but its Thursday now and I still have not heard from him ...  Does this mean that he's not interested or should I just sit tight & wait?  I'm back in the dating scene after many years and I guess I'm very insecure!

He is just not that into you. If a guy really likes you, he will call. Simple as that.


Ive always ahd problems with my bf looking at other females all the time. he tries to sneak looks.. and not be obvious cuz he knows i'll get mad.  he always denys it and gets very angry with me.   but every single time i ever walk awat.. like at the store, or out in public... i look bacj at huim and hes staring at some other chick!  or glancing at some girl, or turning his head for some girl!  the second i walk away, he takes that opportunity to check out a woman and its so creepy!!!!  he says it doesnt mean anything and he loves me and only wants me... but. ew! its so gross seeing the guy u love eyeing some random lady who isnt even that great. is that normal????????????????????

Do him like he does you- and make it obvious that your looking... (thats what I do)... I turn my head and be smiling.. my boyfriend acts like he don't see me, but he does, b/c he'll get all quiet... do him like he does you----  and the next time you catch his eyes wondering-- don't even give him a chance to deny it... tap him on his shoulder while hes' looking and ask him " Do you know her OR. if you wanna walk with her you can"  make him feel like-- he can walk off and leave you and you'll be just fine..... make him feel like you don't care--- I also tell mine---- " keep on looking at these other Bytches if you wanna--- while you looking at them- somebody else is looking at me........ Practice lil' smart,snappy remarks to get under his skin... walk with your head up like you don't give a shyt that hes' looking at other girls-- if you walk faster than him.. he'll be trying to catch up with you and won't have time to have that "wondering eye".......  And one more thing--- when you go out with him-- be looking Super Good... give another guy a reason to look at you--- (thats what I do) -- be looking so good that your guy will only have time to look at other dudes-- (it will be funny) b/c he'll start asking you--- Wow- do you know him- he was looking all in your face and smiling-  its kinda funny but it really does work---- you'll have him watching looking at other guys to see if they watching you in NO TIME....\nTrust me!

At school I'm taught evolution but it seems to all be a bunch of wishy washy dreams. A grown up fairy tale. What do you think?

Of the above answers, I like Truthseekers.  "Day off" (chuckle) I like it.\n\nI say its a religion.  Its called the THEORY of evolution, not a law, like the Law of Gravity.  There is certainly supporting evidence for evolution but whether its conclusive, I dunno.  Presumably, evolution takes so many eons to unfurl that we're excused from providing empirical evidence.\n\nPeople who believe in evolution WANT to believe in it.  I've never heard of an evolutionist (or creationist for that matter) who grudgingly or reluctantly held their belief. Neither evolution nor creation has an ironclad case if held up to exhaustive and unrelenting logical scrutiny.  People choose the belief system that appeals to them and stick to it.


"Free trade:  A term based on a theory in economics, but in reality the practice is something quite different. The theory of free trade contends that everyone in the world will be better off if each nation eliminates tariffs and other barriers to the flow of products across borders. The practice of "free trade" departs from theory by including the export of money either for investment purposes or speculation. With firms able to move both money and products around the world, the benefits of lower prices and higher wages have not been enjoyed by most people. In addition, under recent "free trade" agreements, the concept of barriers to trade has been expanded to include domestic regulations, public health and human rights measures, and environmental protection laws which inhibit business activity."


how can i get the oags office to serve a capias warrant on a 2 time felon on probation?

It seems like you have a lot of anger toward your ex-... I hope that you are taking steps to move on with your life, and are not letting his actions (or inactions) control your emotions.\n\nThat said... If you know where your ex-husband currently is, and you know that he has an arrest warrant, you can contact the police/sheriff's department that has jurisdiction over that area and ask them to serve the warrant.  \n\nDepending on the warrant, he may either be taken into custody immediatly or be given a summons to appear in court.  Although it sounds silly, sometimes a person has to fail to appear several times before they get arrested.\n\n"Probation" departments are usually run through the county government.  Look in the phone book for the county where your husband was convicted and call their probation department.  Normally, probation is given to people who committ misdemeanor crimes in lieu of jail time.\n\n"Parole" departments are usually run though the state government.  They also should be listed in the government pages of your phone book.  Parole is much different - it applies to felons who have recently been released from prison.  Parolees typically have far fewer rights than probationers.\n\nThe best the parole or probation offices are going to do is "violate" his probation or parole and issue an arrest warrant.  They may or may not actively go out looking for him.  They may or may not inform the local law enforcement agency that he has a warrant.  You may want to do this yourself.


K look i was in my 5th period at school (high school) we had a substitute teacher yeah a sub and he yelled at me for not doing my work so he turned his back and I "threw a chalboard eraser at him "funny at the moment" but then my friend got blamed she didnt rat me out but now im afraid im going 2 get caught and maybe expelled for my bad record "WHAT SHOULD I DO" I dont want 2 get in trouble but i also dont want 2 get my friends in trouble please help

I think you should fess up.  Someone else should not take the heat for something you did.  It's admirable that your friend took the heat for you, but you will feel better about yourself for telling the truth and your teacher will respect you for having the courage to tell the truth.

she says iam not the only one in pain she says step out of my world and look abou its been 2 years...now- i have not talked to her for 6 years and she want to be friends now...should i forgive?

6 years ago - what you're friend said to you was very insensitive.  It sounds as if she finally realized what she's done wrong, but if she acted as if nothing's happened and can't seem to recall the hurtful things she's said to you years before, mayB U need to remind her that what she said to you (when you were in a state a mourning) was very hurtful and let her know that her remark had placed a damper on your friendship.  Honestly, we're all human and we all do make mistakes with the things we say or do.  I'd say give your friend another chance, but be clear on the reasons why you haven't kept in touch with her all those years and be honest with how you really felt.\n\nAt least this is my opinion.

She is not a 'REAL' person and No she was not designed as the mother of anyone. She was designed to capture the spirit of our great country. \nI encourage you to visit this site.  It details the history of how Lady Liberty came to be.\nhttp://www.nps.gov/stli/prod02.htm


There are alot of brave souls on this site mocking christianity and our God. I wonder what he's feeling and thinking. If He who is Holy sends them to Hell....then I will also lend a helping hand. \n\nThe non believers act brave on this site but deep within themselves they do realise that there is something more than science and the evil EVOLUTION theory. After all GOD CREATED SCIENCE.

I find no joy in that whatsoever. I am with God and wish that all would be saved and come to repentance. They may mock and deride us today, but they could be my brothers and sisters tomorrow. You never know. I would much rather pray for them rather than see their demise.


What form would the cinnamic acid impurity take after the sodium borohydride reduction step?\nWhat is the function of hydrochloric acid in step 4 of the reaction in the reduction of cinnamic acid by sodium borohydride and what gas is formed in step 4?

The borohydride will dispense a Hydride (H minus) to the carbonyl site causing the following transformation: R-COOH ---> R-CH2O- \n\nAdding the HCl will protonate the oxygen leaving you with: R-CH2OH

There are so many questions here that ask "why do black people...blah, blah, blah." They are followed by some equally nasty responses. Why are Black people (and all people of color) always judged as a whole and not as individuals? Nobody thinks that all white people are serial killers just because of Charles Manson and Jefffery Dahmer. If a white person does something wrong, nobody takes it out on the whole white race.

I think that america's common sense has been permanantly crippled by bin laden. Post 911 America views the whole world suspiciously (except their slaves in UK and friends in Israel). America has ever since been contradicting themselves. Remember the war in iraq, it was fought bcoz bush claimed to have evidence of non existent weapons and the threat of a dictator.My question to the world is "If iraq , y not pakistan?". Mushy's a dictator and one who openly admits to having nuclear weapons.\n\nI predict that soon the patience of the international community will run out. A grand alliance (Russia, China , France , India and the Arab world) could be formed so that america and americans will exist only in history textbooks.

The future of America is like the future of Hitler.

When its 0 are you almost definitely getting grants from the government or could you get left out? Mine is 0 and I am just trying to figure it out.I mean I'm sure there are alot of people who don't get grants but I just wondered how I will fight into this.

What you're eligible for will be determined by your total income. The fact you're getting nothing from your family suggests it will be based on your annual income alone. Unless you're making very good money, I'd be surprised if you weren't eligible for some grant money. The amount will be determined by the financial aid office at the college or university you're applying to. You'll likely have options on both grants and loans, but be careful to remember that while the grants have no strings attached, the loans must be repaid at some point (with interest). So try to take out as little in loan money as you possibly can. Good luck!

I bought a computer last April for appox. $1700 and put it on a new credit card with 0% APR for one year. I still have about $1000 left to pay off and I'm considering transferring the balance to a new credit card which has 0% for a full year. Will this hurt my credit score? Is it better to dip into savings and pay off whatever is left in April?

because you are effectively "paying" the higher balance credit card by transfering it, it shouldn't hurt anything - unless you make a habit of this

if there is a paper street behind the properties can someone cancle the easement then.  Escp for saftey.  There is a beach along side the easement with a 5 foot drop (no sea wall) so who is responsible for maintaining the easement.  And what happens if the easement is designed just for the other property owner to get to and from house and they decided to put cable, water, phone etc through the easement?  Those have been taken out because it was private property so they moved it to the paper street.  So the main question is what rights is there to block the easement for saftey or neglect.

Easments and other areas of property law vary by state.  You should consult a local real estate attorney.

well so have i and i am sick of it so i am reporting abuse on yahoo themselves here is their profile\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=An0YNZZtoBcVaVKgUsQ2100ezKIX?show=AA10030221\ngo there and repart abuse lets see how they like it. they say that people review every report well i bet they dont read them or a comp. does it.\nto see good questions and answers that were reported go to my other questions

Gotta be honest, Bob, but the way your anger shows up in your posting kind of lends credibility in you being reported for abuse.\n\nHey, we've all gotten a retaliatory abuse report on us from someone that doesn't like what we personally have to say. How we handle it from there is the difference.


For example, could a friend make the "beer university" and offer degrees in extreme drinking for people that passed a drinking test, for example a doctorate degree in drinking?  Then they could use the Dr.name?  It's just an idea for a fun website that's all.  Are there's any legal specifications that a 'school' must have to award a doctorate or for a person to use Dr in their name legaly?

You can use it for fun. But the Dr. can not be used to futher your career or obtain a employment position. Cant be used on legal documents, u get the pic.


I think it will be great.  How many murder other people and goto prison for years, how does that fit the crime? Other people get raped but the rapist gets fined and goes to prison for 2 years. Imagine the scar of their family and of themselves.\n\nThen there was the case of the beautiful girl whose face and body became disfigured because of a drunk driver, the driver went to prison for like 2 years (her friends in the car all died).\n\nIt should be that if you kill someone we will kill you.  If you rape someone you don't want to be raped.  You get raped by a gorilla (this is less than an eye for an eye, but  we'll figure something out), and if you messed up someone face because you decide to drink and drive? ...well you do the math.

Capital punishment serves as the best deterent. There will be crime though but the penalty for getting caught will be severe so lesser crimes can be expected.\n\nIn my opinion, everyone has done one thing or the other in his/her life, an inmate is one who gets caught the rest are innocent. No one actually is.


is Sysmbiosis university in Pune-India an valid university international-wise?

hey i can surely help you out.. it is not only  a valid university but also a well renowned privite university in india. this offers 100 percent placement guarantee to it's students. they take one entrance test called SNAP. this is not so easy to give so prepare enough to get into it. for internation students this is the best place because of lower fees and accomodation charges also indians have lower standard of living than the other countries so u can live easily over here. no crime and nothing!! surely the best place to live.. if u want more help u can mail me on aga_123_in@yahoo.com i will help u because at my time ther was no one to help me and tht's why i couldn't get admitted in it.. good luck

I keep having this audio problem in my Aspire 3000+ (Realtek Ac'97 Audio Driver) Can I permanently solve this problem? The laptop is I month old.

Under W2K/XP, right click my computer -> manage -> device driver, locate "SOUND, VIDE0 AND GAME CONTROLLERS", find your audio controller (Realtek AC97), right click -> Uninstall, Accept changes, reboot. The OS should automatically ask for drivers the next time you boot. When it does select "search for suitable update" next among the options select Microsoft Windows Update. This is the best way to repair a broken/missing/corrupt driver, permanently.

You are to write a program that will implement the game Towers of Hanoi. The game plays as follows:\n• There are 3 pegs, which we will label as A, B and C for simplicity.\n• Initially, peg A contains n number of disks, each one with a different size. The disks are stacked\nin increasing size so that a disk is always on top of a larger one, forming a “tower.”\n• The goal of the game is to move all the disks from peg A to peg C.\n• You may only move one disk at a time.\n• You may move the top disk from any peg to the top of the stack at another peg. The only\nlimitation is that you may not place a disk on top of one which is smaller.

Here's the algorithm\n\n    solve ( current, final )\n    {\n 1      let max be the number of disks\n 2      let dest be the final place of max\n 3      let disk = max\n        repeat\n 4          while disk > 0 do\n 5              if disk is already on dest,\n 6              or, moving it succeeds then\n 7                  if disk = max then\n 8                      decrement max by 1\n 9                      if max = 0 then\n10                          return    // done\n                        end if\n11                      let dest be the final place of max\n                    end if\n                else\n12                  let dest be the alternative place between dest and\n                    the current place of disk\n                end if\n13              decrement disk by 1\n            end while\n14          let p and q be the places different of dest\n15          let disk be the smaller of the disks on top of p and q\n16          let dest be the place between p and q with greater disk on top\n        end repeat\n    } \n\n\nif u need more help..\n Just let me know...

Would you give someone a present if he/she had not given you one. Or does it really matter

If someone gave you a present for your birthday, then it's polite to give them one for theirs.  Basically though, give a gift when you feel inclined to, maybe because you're old friends, or family members, or the person helped you out a lot this year.  Don't worry about them feeling like they have to "repay" you for your gift.  Gifts are just that -- gifts -- and they shouldn't be thought of as favors.


We have to do a project for a 9th grade earth science class. WE have to make a model of a glacier and write a report about it. Any good websites to look at?

If you are looking to make a functioning model of a glacier, it will be a boring one.  You can use silly putty to imitate the movement of a glacier (it flows plastically just like a glacier), but the problem is that you will wait a long time to see the effects!  [1] below shows that silly putty actually makes a great analogy to the mechanics of real glaciers.\n\nIf youre going to make a static (non-moving) model, use the diagram in [2] below.  Keep in mind that the diagrams on this website are for ALPINE galciers--glaciers that flow down mountain valleys.  They are different from continental glaciers which are analogous to how pancakes flow when you pour them into a pan.\n\nSome main features that you may want to depict in your model:\n\n1.  Slope--alpine glaciers flow because of gravity.  Since they are not very thick (like continental ice sheets are), they need a slope to flow down.  Keep in mind that most of the motion in a glacier does not occur at the base!  Many glaciers are actually frozen to the rock below and exhibit little basal sliding.  Instead, the most important thing you can learn about glaciers is that they 'flow' downhill because the ice shears.  [3] shows the Malaspina Glacier--a great visual example of how ice flows into neat shapes.\n\n2.  Crevasses--these form on the surface of the glacier because the surface is brittle.  When you go deeper into the glacier (say 100 feet), the weight of the ice on top makes the ice flow in a ductile manner.  There are many different types of crevasses, but a good simple type is when the glacier flows over a hump in the valley.\n\n3.  Debris--glaciers erode the valley walls (and glaciers that slide on their bed erode the valley beneath them).  A common misconception is that the ice erodes the valley.  Not true.  Glacial erosion occurs as a result of many processes, but the one you want to diagram is similar to how a piece of sandpaper 'erodes' wood.  The ice entrains lots of debris--silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, boulders, etc.  These rocks scratch the rocks of the valley and erode them.  (a more productive erosive force is when the ice melts, flows into cracks in the valley rock, and re-freezes.  The expansion of water breaks the rock apart and makes it easy for the glacier to carry it away)\n\n4.  Terminus/end moraine--the end of the glacier is called the terminus.  Because the ice in a glacier is always moving downhill, similar to a giant conveyor, all of the debris that the glacier is carrying gets dropped off at the end!  Assuming the terminus of the glacier is not advancing or receeding, the pile of dirt at the end grows and is called an end moraine.  If you look at a valley that was glaciated in the past, the farthest end moraine is called the terminal moraine.\n\nI also found [4]--looks like maybe you can order this?  Looks difficult!\n\nGood luck.


does anyone believe that you should ask people for help? or should you do it own your own?

sometimes we or need someone to lean on, but never expect result all the time just have little spirit to do it on your own and believe that you can get it done better.\n\ntry at least so you do not just be a slacker.


i want to leave this place but im not sure if it leagal to leave at 17

I live in Michigan, it is legal. My son did this against my wishes, the court said I could not stop him, they also said I could not stop him from moving back in either. Don't make the mistake, he dropped out of school, he had no job, no car, he ended up on the streets. He is now 23 and not much better off. Stay in school and stay at home! If there are other things going on at home, you need to get ahold of Child and Family Services. Good Luck


First, what is ancient Islam?  Second, Hagia Sophia was built under the Eastern Roman empire in the 6th century under the reign of Justinian 1.  In Constantinople.  It was a cathedral of the Eastern Orthodox faith.  When the Ottomans successfully took the city in the 15th century, and the Turks have had it ever since.  It is now called Istanbul.  \n\nBut basically it is an interesting crossroads church.  It was the seat of the Metropolitan (kind of like a pope) of the Eastern Orthodox church unti 1200, when it became Roman Catholic for a short while, before returning to the eastern church.  Of course after the fall of Constantinople, it became Islamic.  After the secularization program of Attaturk, it was converted into a museum.  \n\nThere have been a lot of changes since the Turks took over...see the site below for reference.\n\nTo answer your question, Hagia Sophia was only called that after the 15th century...hardly ancient.


does that change thier feelings. If his partner rejects the new woman because he use to be a man. where does she go now.\nWould another man want a woman that was once a man?

I think it is an odd relation from the begining a man must not inetiate any relation with another man, and again a man must not change his gender to become a woman !

requiring notification to public of intention to build a new commercial establishment and to invite citizen's comments to the University City Planning Commission and/or City Council (to one or to both?) before approval of the building permit.

I don't know about that particular community, but if they are required, all they have to do is put in the local newpaper. There is a section in there for public notices, usually in with the classified section. If it is a big enough story, there may be a news story on it (like if a sex offender is moving into the area), but otherwise, it will be listed in tiny print in the public notices section of the newspaper.


How accurate is Jim Carmer's prediction of stock?


I applied for a social security card almost 3 mos. ago, there was a discrepancy about my birthdate and they wanted to see my birth certificate I ordered an original state sealed birth certificate overnighted to me for $30.00 (thinking this would expediate the matter)  went back to social security adminstration the same week in December had supporting documents of my birthdate; life ins. policy,high school transcript,baptismal record,I.R.S documents, then they told me they wanted to verify the birth certificate with vital statistics.  I had to contact a liason before SS would notify me in February why I had not recevied my card, they finally sent me correspondence last week(through a liason) that they were running behind, would check into this situation and notify me. Running behind? Now how many people need a replacment card at one time? It is sad when administration is too busy to pick up the telephone and make a simple phone call to troubleshoot an urgent situation. Truly sad.

Damn! Ususally it is two weeks. I would go to the office again. Now that you have proven your identity, there is usually a paper they issue that shows your ss number on it. You should be able to use it in lieu of your card until you recieve the actual card. Most employers etc will accept it as it is from the SS dept. Once you get your card, you can show it to your employer, etc.


Yahoo News:British historian David Irving was sentenced to three years in prison for denying the holocaust.\nyou won't be prosecuted if you deny God but you are considered a criminal if you don't believe in holocaust.how do you justify that?

I remember that disgraceful persecution of David Irving - an honest, unprejudiced, truth-telling man.  The Jews nailed him - he even had a Jewish judge deciding the case.\nRead his book about WW11 "Churchill's War" - it's straight reporting too.\nBy the way, the best book on the so-called Holocaust is "The Great Hoax", written about 20 years ago by a completely unprejudiced American who researched the subject for 10 years and wrote a very thick book - by far the most complete examination of the topic.  His conclusion was that a maximum of 150,000 Jews were killed in the whole of Europe during the Hitler time, in one way or another - certainly not by gassing.  Unfortunately I can't remember his name.  Can anyone remind me and say if this book can still be obtained : it's high time this whole thing was sorted out, don't you think?

They are not legally separated or divorced yet but working on it.She has not lived with him in over 1 1/2 years.

The IRS says you are either married or you're not.  So for their purposes your friend was married at the end of tax year 2005.  However that doesn't mean that he MUST claim his wife, only that the option is available.  The can each file as "Married filing Separately" and each can claim themselves.  It might be better for them to agree to file jointly since they would probably pay less tax that way.  If they aren't on speaking terms this option is most likely out.

i'm talking about the first one primarily, the sequels got a little crappy. i really love the scenes of smith interrogating morpheus.

Well, the movie was most definately unique in its special effects, characters and story.  I, like you, loved the first one and thought the other two trailed off.  As for a deeper philosophical meaning it is interesting to consider the fact that we may not be in control of our lives.  The world around is just an illusion and that we must have our eyes open to know real truth.

ALL my MSN bookmarks have disappeared, I have F8 F9 F11 sandbox and uninstalled and re-installed MSN but NOTHING HELP thank you


i fired my lawyer an ask him to return by case file several weeks go by i have not recieved my file when i receive a letter from a former client of the same attorney stating that the attorney has sent him my files. he stated that he told the attorney that he was not the person on those files but they sent it to him anyway

Attorney-client communications are private and priveleged (he/she can't be required to use the information in court against you.  After firing an attorney his obligation to protect your private information still holds.  Honest errors often occur and if no damage has been done, request that the error be corrected.  There may be a question as to how much of a case file must be returned to you (if you sued him he might need the file, right?).\n\nIf you believe that damage has been done (especially deliberately) you can report that to the County or State bar association.  If the damage is severe you may also sue, however, for practical purposes attornies are reluctant to sue other attornies without strong cause.  Lawyers can be admonished or fined for frivolous law suits.  If you fired one atttorney and hired another, ask his/her advice, especially to obtain your case file.


Specific quotes please.\n\nBasically I mean what were the alleged prophesies that would let us know who the Messiah was? I've heard people mention them but never quote them.\n\nThe basis of christianity is practically the thought that Jesus is the Messiah. I know that's not the entirety of christian religion, I was christian myself. Please don't try to explain that just answer the prophesies question.

Ha, what a pile of garbage. True the messiah was supposed to be a descendent of king David but that decent is patrilineal (from father to son) Mathew in the first part even shows how jesus was this though his father Josef. But wait. I thought that Jesus was the son of G-d so he cant be a descendant of king David. Strike one. They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Isaiah 2:4. This is Isaiah’s prediction of what the messiah supposed to do. Basically world peace look around you. Strike two. The messiah was also supposed to restore the temple in Jerusalem and gather the Jews back to Israel. The temple still has not been built and more than ½ of Jews today don’t live in Israel. Strike three. Jesus is out of there.\nThe truth is Jesus did not fulfill ANY of the requirements to be the messiah. And NO WHERE dose it say any in the writings before Jesus thing about someone coming to cleanse sin or getting a second chance at it latter. (if you want the bible quotes to support the rest of my augment email me at Gratvol@yahoo.com)\n\n\n\noh and dcomputerman if all you needed to be was the son of a woman descendant of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and from the tribe of Judah line of King David I have just a good chance of being the Messiah as Jesus did.
