how is your behavior influenced by the looks of an online persona?

I would immediately look at your avatar if it is nice. But whether I answer you or not is depends on your question. :) Anyway I answered you not because ur avatar looks good, cos' your question is interesting to me. the looks of an online person can be fake, so it has no meaning to me actually. Thats why I chose a cat for my pic here :) Have a nice day!


What are the secrets that Scientologists charge so much for and physically guard with guns?

There founder L. Ron Hubard gave them information about how our souls came here to earth and more information about various space alien races.  These secrets are part of a system to help humans regian there lost god like abilities, which space aliens have caused us to loss.\n\nIf you practice scientology you will learn how to accsses these hiden secret powers.\n\nI have no idea of the validity of any of there claims, but they try to protect there system according to them so it isn't miss used.  People critical of Scientology claim the secrecy is to protect the churchs money making ability.


I know that it is a UNIX operating system, want a few more details.

Did you mean HP-UX?  HP-UX was a version of Unix developed to run on their PA-Risc processors and Intel Itanium servers.\n\nUnless of course you actually meant UP-UX which has no trace of existence whatsoever (or at least that I could find).\n\nSee Wikipedia for more info.

What should we do to remain awake whole night ? (The reference i am asking here is only for studying)

Stay online, so that in between breaks you can surf the net, or fix a quiz (pretty exciting stuff for me), drink lots of energy drinks and coffee, turn on the television while you study, sit on an uncomfortable chair, like a hard one, so that it's not comfy enough to snooze on.\nKeep some strong smelling lemon or citrus nearby to sniff on. Studies show they help to keep you feeling 'refreshed'.

This question is is in refence to broadcasting from a uhf and vhf tower that I inherited.

a repeater picks up a broadcast signal and re-broadcasts it.  So a commercial repeater business would extend the reach of uhf/vhf signals to outlying areas (most likely).

You can map a rectangle in 2-D onto 1-D by using the parameterization: x=Asin(vt-a), y=Bsin(wt-b). And you can map most surfaces onto rectangles. Similarly,you can map a solid onto a surface. So why can't you map a solid onto a line?

You can.  Use the mapping (x, y, z) -> x.  Of course, that is a many-to-one mapping, and kind of useless.

i'm wondering how and when will the motors rotate.

The head is a Class 1 laser diode fed by a constant current source of typically 20-50mA.  The beam is focused onto the CD surface and reflected back onto a photodiode with a risetime of 10nS or better.  The digital output signal is fed to a decoder and then to an amplifier.\n\nConcerning drives, the disc is spun at a constant speed by a pulse-feedback servomechanism.  The head travels radially much like the head on a harddisk.


I am doing a paper on confidentilaity laws and I was told to pick a state. So I decided on Pennsylvania pleasehelp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You might try looking up HIPPA on the internet.  It's a new national law that requires doctors, nurses and other medical personnel to keep confidential information just that.  Your doctor cannot say your name and your diagnosis over the phone for instance when someone is nearby to overhear him, even his nurse.  It breaks HIPPA laws,   It really new, too, I think in 2005 they started it.  You have to sign a waiver when you first see a doctor that will allow him to discuss your case with other professionals and even to talk to you on the phone.  It has really affected the nursing home I live in.  They cannot be discussing patients when other patients are nearby.

My Mother is an elderly lady with the beginning of ahlzeimers how much can I legally charge her to live at my house under my care?  Thankyou.

How could you charge your elderly parent for rent  and still look at yourself in the mirror? Before you charge your mom rent, think of all the things she supplied to you and for you since she gave birth to you. It's not easy raising children and to charge your own mother to stay in your home is very disrespectful, dishonorable.  Do unto others as you would have done unto you. I do not mean to sound harsh but I could never charge my parents for anything because I know and understand what they sacrificed for me.\n\nA parent with alzheimers is devastating for not only you and your family but your mother as well. Instead of charging her rent maybe you could set aside some of her funds towards her medical expenses or other care and activities she will need in the future.

I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.\n- Albert Einstein

As a child Albert Einstein was a religious Jew, then became atheist as a teenager through his study of mathematics and physics.\n\nLater in life he started to console his childhood faith with science, having realised that the Big Bang could have been God-initiated or God-controlled.\n\nHe made a few references to God and the universe, each time wanting to know God'd intention, thinking, or mind.\n\nIn fact, Einstein asks the same questions other Jews have wondered for thousands of years. Much of the same is asked in the Talmud and other Jewish exegesis.


As far as the story goes, Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana, president of Mexico 150 years ago, sold part of the Mexican territory (now Arizona, Texas and New Mexico) to the US government. Others, specially politicians, say it was stolen by the US.

That all really depends on your definition of "stole." Technically, the Mexican government signed the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, ceding all of the territories to which you refer in exchange for $15 million and ending the Mexican-American War. One could say, however, that the Mexican-American War was merely a pretext for taking all of the territory, and it is likely not far from the truth. Also, a large chunk of Arizona and a section of New Mexico were purchased after the stealing of the rest in 1853 as the Gadsden Purchase, in which the US paid Mexico $10 million, about $343,826,098 accounting for inflation.


For ex:\n\nI think we can all agree that you can’t travel from point A to point B without first traveling half-way from point A to point B.\n\nSay point B is 1 meter away from point A.\nIn order to travel to point B I must first cross the .5 meter mark.\nI must next cross the .25 meter mark, then .125 meters, .0625, etc…\n\nSince I ultimately arrive at a point were I am 0 meters from point B I must have eventually encountered a number that could not longer be halved.\n\nPut another way; The distance between me and point B gets ever smaller as I approach point B.  Imagine a point when I am .00000000001 meters from point B.\n\nIf infinite smallness existed than the distance between myself and point B would forever be getting smaller but never reach 0 and I would never get there.  But we know from real life experience that I do eventually arrive at point B.\n\nThis raises the question that if infinite smallness doesn’t exist, than what is the smallest number?

There is no smallest number.\n\nEvery number (real number, for example) can be halved.\n\nThe set of real numbers is closed under the operation of multiplication.  (See item (II)-(5) at the linked reference.)\n\nSo, since 0.5 is a real number. if X is a real number, X*0.5 is also a real number.


I would like to know more about nano-tecnology as it\nrelates to either inorganic or organic properties.\nI once read from a science magazine that nano-tecnology will be the next big break-through in chemistry.

Some great resources on nanotechnology are listed in the 'sources' section below:


I am a very sensitive person. Whether it be happiness I go the zenith and if something makes me sad, I hit rock bottom. I expect too much from the people I love and the from the people who love me. Even their casual remarks sometimes make me hurt. I know I hurt myself and this maybe attributed to a lack of self-confidence. How can I remedy this? How do make my heart as stone? Please help.

I agree with RocketJ. Don't try to change yourself-- some people are more sensitive than others and that's a part of what makes you a unique person. But since it sounds like this is actually bothering you, it's probably a good idea to seek counseling. The main benefit of counseling is that you'll get to talk to a completely impartial person, which your friends & family cannot offer.

Mmm... it's close.\n\nDye: 7/16, .438, 3 R, 2B, HR, 3 RBI, 2 BB, 2 K\nCrede: 6/17, .353, 2 R, 2B, 2 HR, 3 RBI, 1 BB, 2K\n\nYou'll see that Dye edges out Crede in BA, R, and BB, while Crede's only claim to fame is an extra HR, though both had the same number of RBI.\n\nDye homered with 2 outs in Game 1, and RBI with 2 outs are always important.  He left none on base in Game 1, while Crede left one on.  Game 2, neither left any one on base.  Game 3, Dye left three on base, Crede left one, and Dye also grounded into a double play.  Game 4, Dye left none on base, Crede left one, but Dye had another 2-out RBI, and the only RBI of that game.\n\nI think that Dye's stats are slightly in his favor, the gameplay stats are about even, and Dye's game-winning RBI with two outs pushes him over the edge as the most deserving MVP candidate.

wife left me for another man after a very bad motorcycle accident now she no longer is seeing him is there room for me left?

First......I think you just did say you were sorry to her for being a boneheaded idiot. The first step is finally realizing what she was trying ot say to you. I have a feeling you realized this......just a tad late. The key is now letting your wife know that you understand. I have a feeling that she felt you spent more time on your bike than with her. Perhaps you were truly caring for this bike......pampering it.......polishing it........tinkering with it..........all while she had to look on. Now that you realize that the bike was dispensable.....make sure you show her that she is not. Care for her.....pamper her......tinker with her.......polish up the marriage. Flowers do nothing.....trust me. Actions......mean everything. Spend time being "present." Stalk her in the most fun loving ways you can imagine. Let her see that you can't stop thinking of her........that you need her........and nothing else will ever come between you two again. (she so needs to know this!)\n\nI so hope you are ok after the accident. I have a feeling that was another issue. She loves you so much and couldn't stand to stand back and wait for you to get hurt. Assure her you won't put yourself in any danger at the risk of losing her. (ok was that too mushy? That might have been too mushy.....aahhh but try it anyway.....what'll it hurt. *wink*) \n\nGood luck......I'll be rooting for ya!!

number of candidates and how many muslim candidate , i am doing some research about muslims in the usa . \nthank you

The United States Congress is divided into two houses, the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House has 435 members, with the numbers from each state based on the population of the state, while the Senate has 100 members, two from each state. Every two years, the entire House and 1/3 of the Senate goes up for election. As of now, there are no Muslims in Congress, and I know of none that ever have. There do not appear to be any Muslims who have announced their candidacy for Senate. The list of candidates so far is in the first source below. The election is not until November 2006, so there will likely be more candidates. There is, unfortunately, no list of all candidates for the House, but the other source has a list of key races in the election. I can't find anything online mentioning Muslim candidates. There will likely be more info as the election nears.

related to automobile, i want the all information related to above my question

The syncromesh, as in the 1966 3 speed 6 cyl mustang, requires you to shift into first gear when the car is completely stopped.  If you attempt to engage first gear without completely stopping the car you will strip the first gear.  Believe me, I did.  It is a royal pain when driving slowly in traffic, people beep at you when you stop in slow moving traffic.  They have NO idea that I need to stop, they just think I can't drive.  Syncro requires the operator to Syncronize the speed with the gear.\n\n\nA constant mesh transmission, on the other hand, can be shifted into any gear regardless of the cars speed.  Modern vehicles do not use syncromesh gear boxes any more, they were phased out in the sixties.


i need researches on the question i asked..

Acceptance.  \n\nBeing unaccepted in the teenage world is a social stigma that hurts many people.  So, following trends that the rest of the student body and teenage society follows, is a way for a person to not only 'feel' accepted but be aclimated by their peers.\n\nHowever, once you turn into an adult, this changes, as the social norms ect are less clear, leaving the decision on what to wear, how to wear it, and what to do and how to do it, simply up to you, instead of society.


married 3 years. i've told him many many time how much i need it and it would just mean the world to me, but he will do something the next day, and then stop...until i bring it up again. HELP!

Stop telling him and start showing him romance and affection yourself. A lot of guys are clueless how to romance a girl, even married ones. Initiate some romantic moves, surprise him. After a while he'll learn a few ideas of how to please you and he'll reciprocate the actions.\n\nYou can also leave some magazines and books about romance lying around the house so he can browse through it while your not looking (some men doesn't want to let you know that they know nil about romantic moves). \n\nBut don't go overboard, it may stifle him, or worse think that you are trying to make up for some mistake u did. And you can't change him overnight. Let him move at his own pace. Just show him that you are one special woman that he ought to show u how much u mean to him or else, other guys will.

I know Christ was a Jew whose beliefs branched into a different religion, what I'm asking is: was Mohamed also a Jew whose teachings developed into a different religion?

No, Mohamed wasnt Jewish. He lived in Medina (Saudi Arabia) studying at a Jewish Yeshiva (bible school).  Then he went up a mountain Moses-style and came down with a not-too-different Arabic version of the bible called the Koran (or Quran). This time it's all Abraham and Ishmael and the Muslims are the completion of the Judeo-Christian story (a.k.a. yet another religious usurpation - I know, it gets boring the second time around!).\n\nIt's not Jesus' beliefs that "branched" into another religion, it's the organisation behind the Pauline Church after his death that took on a worldly-political view with Rome in its sights... after heavy editing and "the Jews" playing the role of deicidal murderers firmly in place, it became a successful campaign, no?


Creation-DNA and the human body are far too complex to be be thrown together by chance.\nDNA is a very complex organic computer program that could never evolve. So either you believe in the ET seed theory, or in a Designer. Evolution requires billions of years to even get to the simple cell. Sorry, the sun would have been too hot only a million years ago to sustain life.\n\nNow, suppose a secular scientist were sent to investigate a meteor that impacted the earth. Upon scraping the crust away, the scientist is amazed to find a perfect, sphere of polished metal. Back at the lab, he sees that he can unscrew the hemispheres apart. Inside he finds a very elaborate system of gyros, propulsion and visual cameras. If damaged, the internal systems can repair itself. Would the scientist marvel at how long it took to have such a mechanism accidently evolve in space? Or would he choose to believe it was created by an advanced designer somewhere outside of terrestial domain? Because he is a secular scientist, he has no problem with thinking the latter. Yet if we say we believe in a Creator, we are branded as unscientific or mindless zealots. Science has its own beliefs and faiths. One of them in nucleonic glue holding like particles together in an atom, or evolution which is merely a theory accepted as fact. It is just an agenda to keep God out of the public arena.

I'm considering entering chiropractic college and would like to know more about work conditions, work options, schedules, income, life/work balance, pros/cons, etc.

It can be an enjoyable career depending on what you are looking for and your personality!\n\nIve been practicing for 6 years, and it is like a lot of other professions.  There are some that make it and some that, for whatever reason, dont!\n\nI would recommend the following:\n\n1.  Look at the average salary for a chiropractor at the bureau of labor statistics.  I believe it is currently $91,000 per year...Not bad for a 33 hour work week, but not all DC's make that much, and some make a LOT more...\n\n2.  Shadow a chiropractor for a week or two, to see if that is what you like...Dont forget, that you will most likely be running your OWN business and some people dont like doing that...If you are one of those people, then you may not make the $100,000 a year...On second thought, shadow MORE than one chiropractor to get an idea that this is what you want to do...\n\n3.  Check out the schools, and compare their tuitions!  As long as they are an acredited school, I would go with a cheaper tuition!\n\n4.  Dont borrow the max amount!  Work part time if possible...It is a very taxing schedule, but you can work 10 hours a week to help support yourself to keep you from racking up the student loans and you will be happier later on!  My ex girlfriend from chiropractic school had her two year degree in dental hygiene and so she worked one day a week while in school and also worked over breaks and made a LOT of money because her profession paid so well...I would most likely get a massage license or something to make the most money you can during those 10 hours...\n\nAnyways, I hope that helps...Im off to work myself now!  :)

I am curious if any analysis has been done to try to project where Europe would be in terms of its technological, industrial, medical/health, energy, transportation, housing, farming, and financial infrastructure, if World War II had not been fought and no other war was fought in its place either.\n\nPeople talk about how wars, military competition, or the space program have brought about scientific and other advances.  I am wondering if anyone has ever taken this rather obvious case, and worked that theory through, and sort of totalled up what advances were delayed by World War II and which ones were spurred by it, and seen if the infrastructure in place in Europe today would be better or worse.\n\nNote in no way at all am I conceiving that the war should have been fought or anyone at all should have died fighting or because what was going on in Europe at the time.  My concern is strictly with this thesis that conflict breeds advancement.  Curious what the net impact of war vs. peace is.

Well, as you said little earlyer about how the war (WWII) wasnt fought, it sounded like you thought it was for no reason... well, because of the war, millions of people died and only 42 percent of those who died were soldiers. But, because of the war, we have learned priceless technolegys in war fighting and also in fixing injuries. The war created many new injuries that the docters back then didnt face before. Also, the communism in germany and spreading was stopped before Adolf Hitler tried to take over Europe and probably more. (although he did control 78 percent of europe at his best)There is a chinese proverb that saids "war is the evil brother of peace" what that means is that although peace might be in the presence, there is always war that comes right around the corner.\nPeace cannot be made without the presence of war.\nThat is all...


it's for a wordsearch puzzle...\n\nthe letters that i have are as follows\n\n_ o _ _ _ r _ _ _ r _ helps me please!!

That would be a "random variable". So I guess other words of the puzzle might be wrong.


we've been dateing a year and we've lived together for 4 months. we just got back from a trip that lasted 10 days meeting his parents and such. when we got back he said he needed more "him time" is this because we just spent every wakeing moment together on vacation or is this the beging of the end of our relationship!!!!

if your boyfriend needs space, give it to him before he cheats on you. (i would've cheated on you anyway)


We are made from amino acids we we are brocken down to a small level. However we are the most advanced life on the planet. Does this mean that emotions are conly complex chemical reactions? So then why to they register and acknoledge themselves in a form of consceinsness? If we can discover the mystery of physics and time and space then why has no one answered this? What are we?

We are also spiritual beings.  The composition of our spirits is difficult to detect with the scientific instruments that we have now, but it's there.  The combination of our spirits and our bodies makes us living souls.\n\nWhy hasn't science discovered this?  We just don't know enough about science yet.  You compared our knowledge to how much we know about physics and space.  I think if you talked to a physicist or an astronomer they would agree that there's still a LOT that we don't know about physics and space yet.


IS HE YOUR FAVORITE BASEBALL PLAYER EVER????????


id wanna say larry brown. gut instinct. kansas back in the day and then the detroit pistons. i think he has an ABA title as well, maybe.


Uhm... I think you've got things just a little bit distorted, lol. It's not the Indians who became the first Mormons. According to the Mormon philosophy, the first Native Americans were European settlers who turned brown when they first migrated to the new land. Hence, the first Native Americans.\n\nSo, perhaps the question you should be asking is, why don't Europeans (Whites or Caucasians) turn brown when they integrate into Native American culture?


Have YOU ever seen a u.f.o. or witnessed any strange day/night sightings in your lifetime yet? I have...several times..I suspect many have...are you one?

I may have to go back to prison so a cop can cover his butt for his actions. This happened before. In fact, it's been going on for 16 years at least. Did suicide a couple of years ago, but the local hospital called in a helicopter.

It's definitely a shame when authority figures abuse their power, and it's often difficult to bring justice since they are in certain ways "above the law" though they shouldn't be.\n\nHowever, I'm not quite sure what the question here is. I'm sorry, but it's very hard to follow.


does this mean believing in reigion or in amything else?

Althought spirituality may be associated with religion, a true spiritual person may have no religion at all.  On the other hand a relgious person may not be spiritual in the least. Sprituality to me is knowing one self and becoming one with your surroundings and nature.  Think ZEN.

which graduate schools on th east-coast preferable

I don't know either. You should talk it over with your school counselor and do some research on various schools you are interested in. Then, apply to some that are challenging to get into, semi-challenging, and easy to get into and see how it goes.\n\nBest of luck to you!


It seems to focus on suffering.  Yet Tibetan Lamas seem happy.  So what does it lead to, if practiced well and fairly?

This all leads back once again to mans primitive state...the human mind in general does not allow us to fully understand "being" to reach that plateau we must rid ourselves of primitive thoughts ..part being..the only way we learn as simple humans is through pain and suffering until we progress past the constant circle we follow..only through meditation can one reach the goal ..which is to free oneself from the human body and mind and to become one with the universe ..to be everything..from the largest mass.. to the most infinitesimal particle ..to feel all the true love and happiness constantly flowing through the universe ..words can never describe the powerful feeling that comes..and you can never imagine until that very moment...to truly understand the universe and life itself .


i am converting and want to know the correct answer. some people tell me only if the woman is married and before she is married it is not necessary. some people tell me that a woman must ALWAYS have her hair covered

A hijab is not a requirement from Al Quran, but it has become a *traditional* and *cultural* requirement in certain traditions and countries that also profess Islam.  \nIn some countries with a Muslim majority in their pouplation, hijab for women is optional, a choice of the woman (either married or single) - e.g. in Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia.\n\nSo it is more a question of whom you are marrying, and what their tradition and expectations are.


Why are manhole covers usually round?  I have seen a few square ones, but they are usually round.

It's kind of neat. Only a round cover will not fall through the hole it covers. Any other shape, if turned the wrong way can slip through the hole and fall.

heard about it on the news (thought it was call4freedom)

call vonage & ask them if they can do it for a biz and/ or who else sells this service.  Also ask them if there is another name for this service and then look it up on the computer.  I'm sure you can call all the phone companies, explain it and ask them for the type of service.


Someone implied that I was a rascist on another post. I'm wondering about why spanish is being made a second language in an english speaking country for several reasons that currently have an effect on my life.  I don't think it's right, but that's my opinion.  Now who's a rascist?  My daughter has a boyfriend, he doesn't speak spanish at all but his father is Cuban.  His grandmother has moved in with them and refuses to speak english, and is very upset with the father for not forcing the children to speak their native language.  She is also very rude to my daughter and doesn't approve of him dating her because she is not Cuban.  So, am I wrong in telling her that Cuba is still there and she's welcome to go back?  Does that make me a rascist?

We are all Americans, all of us, and to imply that one color of people should only stick to one color is discrimination.  Which is kinda ironic considering that most of the people who stick to one race color are the same people who whine about everyone else being racist.  We are one people, at the DNA level we're all human and skin color shouldn't really matter much.  This sorta devision is what keeps racism a issue, because if people can't relate to each other they are going to dislike or be suspicious of each other.  Frankly, the sooner we realize that the only race that matters is the human race, the better.


What steps do I have to follow in order to have an extra working hard drive on my computer?

Most USB devices require special drivers to use on Win98.  If you want to purchase an external drive, make sure it include Win98 drivers.\n\nOtherwise, you need to pop open your case, and install an internal drive.  Before installing, make sure you have an extra connection on the cable leading to the existing hard drive.  If not, you'll need to purchase a new IDE cable.  Make sure you purchase an 80-pin IDE cable (as opposed to 40-pin) as your drive can only achieve it's best performance with an 80-pin IDE cable\n\nMost cases have the space to add an extra drive internally.  There are two types of drive bays - 5.25" and 3.5".  Since all desktop hard drives are 3.5" use one of these if possible.  Otherwise you can purchase a rail kit to adapt a 3.5" drive to 5.25".\n\nNext comes the drive settings.  Your current drive may either be set for Master or Cable Select.  Usually there are a series of jumpers next to where the drive connects to the power cord (4-pin) and/or cable leading to the controller (on the motherboard).  On some drives, they're marked MA, SL, or CS.  If not it may indicate on the top of the drive.  If the drive is MA(ster), you need to set your new drive for SL(ave).  If it's CS (cable select), set yours for CS.  Plug your drive into the empty connector on the same cable that connects to your hard drive.\n\nI would recommend connecting hard drives in series instead of putting a hard drive on the same cable as your CD/DVD drive.  IDE can only perform as well as the slowest device on the cable.  Since CD/DVD drives are typically slower than hard drives, your new drive won't be able to achieve it's maximum performance.\n\nThat's usually it.  Your system BIOS should automatically detect the drive.  You can either use Windows to partition and format the drive, or, if your new drive included a setup utility, use the disk that came with the drive.  Since you're using Windows98 you must setup the drive to use a FAT32 partition as Win98 does not support NTFS, and FAT has a limit of 2GB.


I'd prefer to have them done locally rather than through an Internet site so my preference would be to personally take my rolls of film to a store in Staten Island, NY and have them converted.

Check with your local photo stores if you don't want to do it online.  I have had some photo companies take old film and put it on VHS and it wasn't too expensive.


yeah, there was a girl i really liked and when i took the advice of my girlfriends i told her how i felt. it kinda blew up in my face.

yes, honesty is best!! you don't always get the response you want and the truth isn't always flattering for us. But, if the truth were missing, none of us would really know what we were dealing with. This girl may not share an attraction for you or may not think she does, but she has got to respect you for being man enough to be honest and put your heart out there like that. You did the right thing.


Has anyone heard of the law firm of Hulsman and Blake in The Netherlands? NO I did not buy a lottery ticket, but I was told that I won the lottery from Lotto NL via my email address. I asked the lawyer who has been emailing me the telephone number to the law firm to validate my winnings. The lawyer has just emailed me with a telephone number.

be carful dont give any of your vital information.  it could be scam.  if they request your bank account so they can transfer the money or anything else like that, dont do it. ask them for a check instead.  after talking with them, you will know if it is a scam or not


like i freak out and go into like fits if its completely silent.. i dunno.. help me out here

IMHO, it's really great that you are self-aware enough to notice this. many people go to sleep at night with the television blaring and it's usually because they can't stand the noise (their own thoughts) in their head and so they can't sleep otherwise. this is not healthy.\n\nif you are terrified of silence, you should probably ask yourself why. what would be the worst thing that would happen? perhaps you might find that you don't like some of the decisions you have made in life. that would be good to know now instead of later in life when the cost of a bad decision will just snowball into a huge avalanche.\n\ni wouldn't recommend that you meditate so that you can be OK with the silence although that's not a bad idea. but it might be a good idea to go out to the beach or the woods or somewhere safe where you can look at everything around you and soak it in and don't bring your iPod. just listen to the sound of nature and see if you can't hear silence between your ears. most of the time my "inner voice" is saying lots of stuff and i have been able to sort out the good from the bad and most of it is bad (as in being too self-critical), but the good stuff can save your life or your personal happiness. the good stuff might be something like "this is the fifth time that person has canceled on me and i haven't done anything like that to them; i'm going to find someone else who won't waste my time." or "man, i really did a good job on that thing the other day. how can i use that in a good way to further build my career/relationship/whatever."\n\nif you can tune into to what's going on between your ears, then you have made a really huge step. some people can never do this because they are numb. they can't tell you how they are feeling and that's a shame. they should make more trips to the beach or wherever makes them happy and give themselves the opportunity to sort themselves out.\n\nif you can get to a point where there isn't any noise at all and you have no fear of silence and there is a smile on your face, then you have reached a particularly good level of enlightenment. enjoy it. anything worthwhile can be yours at that point.\n\ni hope this helps.

i dont think it is, i think you should take care of your responsibilities.

I am not a believer in abortion.  It is an easy way out.  I am a single mother and even though it is hard to raise a child on my own, I would never have considered aborting my baby.  How many people out there have ever really seen what an abortion does to an unborn child?  It's positively horrifying, and no other word besides "murder" describes it.  It is not just about a woman's body, there is another life involved!  One that feels pain, has a heartbeat, and is completely defenseless and dependant on it's mother.  Yes, you are right.  Women SHOULD take care of their responsibilities.  Never is abortion ok, not when you consider that that baby can feel everything as it's being ripped apart.


I was fiddling with my Windows "graphics" settings (I've got Intel Extreme Graphics) and have now made some inadvertent change because of which the "fonts" don't appear as crystal clear (on reducing their size) as they previously used to. The visibly clean interface, of my fonts - while browsing, editing a document - or doing any font-related computer activity is not the same anymore. \n\nHow do I enable the best graphics, perfect texture and high pixels detailing to the best of my computer's graphical ability?\n\nPlease help.\n\nMiscellaneous details: I've got WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL 32-bit, Intel Celeron Processor 1.7Ghz 256 MB RAM (with Intel Extreme Graphics) and did this stupidity on the suggestion of a utility program (Advanced System Optimizer) that advised me on how I could lessen the "excess graphical pressure" off my computer :-P or whatever...

You said that the fonts don't appear as crystal clear as they did.  Now this may depend on the type of monitor you have but can make a difference either way.  If you have a LCD display it is very likely that you turned off clear type.  It can also make a difference on CRT monitors but not as noticeably so.  To turn it back on go to Control Panel > Display > Appearance and click on the Advanced tab then go to Effects and under "smooth edges of screen fonts" select "Clear Type".  For further fine tuning the way clear typing works you can download the Clear Type Power Toy for Windows XP below.\n\nIf that doesn't work, post back and let me know.\n\nNo need to be sorry.  You may have checked but could it be that your display resolution is set too low.  If it's a LCD panel, you need to run it at it it's native resolution which should be maximum for it.\n\nMaybe someone else can think of a few ideas that I may not be hitting on.


the wind speed is uncontrolable and unstable then how can we get stable power supply?

Usually wind harvesters are build in areas with huge winds and occurs throughout the year. You cannot control the wind speed so each collector generates a random amount of energy. For a stable power supply, the energy harvested by each collector is transferred to a storage generator which then collects everything and thus distributes the electrical power in a constant supply to homes. So there is no problem with the erratic wind speed.


While you could physically connect it, netgear's print servers are print servers only, not storage servers, with no way to configure those devices for network connectivity.  If you want to connect a USB drive to a network, you need a device that can perform that type of link, such as the Linksys NSLU2, D-link DNS-120 or DNS-G120, or Netgear's wireless storage router WGT634U.

I am very hungry at present, and this thought came to my mind. I used to be pretty round when I was a child, but now am slim and tall. When ever people see after a long time, they say 'Were you Dieting'. Can dieting lead to ulcers?

I think this will help you.\n\n\nWhile the word ulcer can refer to any type of sore or lesion that won't heal, in common usage it typically refers to peptic ulcers, very painful lesions that form in the stomach or intestine. For years, even centuries, ulcers were believed to be caused by stress and/or particular kinds of food and were considered a chronic condition. That is, it was thought that you couldn't 'cure' ulcers, you just had to manage them with antacids, diet - eating only bland food, for example - and lowering your stress levels. The classical stereotype of the overworked Type-A manager would depict him getting off the phone and reaching for antacids as he clutched his midsection. "Oh, my ulcer," he would moan, an indication that the phone call had just contributed to his stress.\n\nBecause the stomach is a highly acidic environment, it was thought that bacteria simply couldn't live there for long. However, in 1982, Robin Warren, an Australian pathologist, proved that patients with chronic ulcers also had colonies of bacteria inhabiting their stomach. Barry Marshall, of the University of Western Australia, took this finding and, working with Warren, located and identified the bacterium in question, which they named Helicobacter pylori.\n\nTheir findings were so contradictory to prevailing conventional wisdom that their work got very little notice, even though it promised a permanent cure to stomach ulcers. In a dramatic display of the validity of their findings, Dr. Marshall deliberately infected himself with Helicobacter pylori and gave himself ulcers, which were then cured by a round of antibiotic treatment. Still, it took the next two decades to overthrow long-held beliefs on the treatment of ulcers, and you will find many laymen today who believe that ulcers are chronic and incurable. In October 2005, Warren and Marshall were awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine, in recognition for their groundbreaking work in the treatment of stomach ulcers.


Even sibling organ transplants suffer from the rejection syndrome. But blood transfusions are accepted by the body with simple type matching and no need for rejection-suppression drugs. I'm curious why the body does not treat foreign blood as it does a foreign organ.\n\nCurious minds want to know!

Most blood transfusions are of packed red cells and not serum/platelets or white cells.  Red cells have no nuclei/genetic material.  Blood type and rH factor are important and mismatch can yield a type of rejection.  The white cells are ultimately "rejected"   In someone with an inactive immune system (chemo patient) the blood can attack the recepient!


is it the same in everyone or just in few?

You may be experiencing a subconscious effort of your body trying to tell you to stop feeding it poison, or you made an ass of yourself. Or, since alcohol is a depressent, and guilt can be a result of a more depressed attitude, it really could be the alcohol. Take more vitamins to replace the ones you sapped, that could ease it... or don't drink alcohol. And yeah, I usually feel bad about drinking the next day 'cause it's bad for me and I make an ass out of myself.

What's the definition for the two terms «Social media» and «Web 2.0»?

Social media is an emerging term used by marketers to describe the “blogosphere of information, opinion, insight, speculation, and perspective,” in the words of Chris Shipley. The blogon 2005 conference, held in NY on October 17-18, 2005 was dedicated to the business of social media. The Social Media Workgroup investigates the development of social identity in the digital world. Web 2.0, Social Software and Social Networking are issues for the Social Media Workgroup.\n\nThe term "Web 2.0" refers to what some people see as a second phase of development of the World Wide Web, including its architecture and its applications. As used by its proponents, the phrase allegedly refers to one or more of the following:\n\n    * a transition of websites from isolated information silos to sources of content and functionality, thus becoming a computing platform serving web applications to end users\n    * a social phenomenon referring to an approach to creating and distributing Web content itself, characterised by open communication, decentralization of authority, freedom to share and re-use, and "the market as a conversation"\n    * a more organized and categorized content, with a far more developed deeplinking web architecture.\n    * a shift in economic value of the web, up past a trillion dollars surpassing that of the dot com boom of the late 1990s.\n\nHowever, a consensus upon its exact meaning has not yet been reached.


Do you think that what happened in Iraq for years back and what will happen in the long years to come is for the Iraqi people benefits or is it just a game by the US to get what it wants?

Don't forget that over 30,000 Iraqi's have died because of the war in addition to the 2,100 American lives lost. The war is costing $6 billion dollars a MONTH. It's probably true that Iraq will be better off in the long run but there are so many other countries that have gone through terrible dictators and governments but we don't go in and invade every one of them. The same time we invaded Iraq there were hunderds of people dying in Sudan due to a civil war but we neglected to launch operation Sudanese Freedom. \n\nSo please don't sell the war as something we are doing solely for the Iraqi's. All countries do what's best for them and that is exactly what the U.S. is doing right now... securing a country in a region with few allies and removing a leader that could have been a potential threat in the future.

There had been many discussions on Smackdown VS Raw and the matches and invasions we saw from taboo tuesday.  \n\nIf you are talking about only raw u go right Cena is best.  "I never backdown and I never Quit" is something he really has maintained and meant.\n\nBut if u come in entire WWE, Batista and Cena are real tough to beat on who? May be a match between two can decide.  There had been lots of comments on Power25 on WWE.com. \n\nPower25 usually have Cena first and Batista second.  OR Batista first or Cena second.  In either cases fans dont miss an opportunity in critising and appreciating either of rating.\n\nWe shall get the answer regarding Cena at being best if he is successful to be the survivour in Elimination chamber match at NewYear revolution on Jan 8.  Lets not miss it and lets see whether Cena can defend from monsters like Kane, HBK, Carlito, Chris Masters, Angle.

i believe that everyone has a soulmate and when the person is born they divide in half (your soul) in to the person you where meant to be with (it can be male and female) and as you go through life you might end up finding that person and YOU JUST KNOW it, no doubts and no questions asked.

I think you are a romantic. I hope that my soulmate exisits but I find that hard to believe. Please keep your wonderful outlook on life and love

I am considering buying a laser rangefinder for golf such as one made by Bushnell or Nikon and am skeptical about how well they work - like picking up a flag/flagstick from 200 yards out with a complicated background. What about getting the distance to a hazard like a bunker or a water hazard? If you have used one and have an opinion, I would like to hear about it. Thanks.

I am an avid golfer and have one.  It is a Bushnell.  They work very well since they have a scan feature.  Meaning if you don't have the steadiest of hands, you can hold down the button and scan the distance to the flag until you get it right.  There are newer ones just released that are equipped with some kind of leveling system that calculates the yardage if you are hitting downhill/uphill automatically.

How rich is Bill? According to Forbes.com  $85 bil. \nIs inflation the only variable to take into account for a fair comparison or does that number need to be calculated as a percentage on GNP? (For americans)\nWhat about people who lived before modern accounting and the known inflation index?\nWho else would be on "the list" for consideration?\nAgain, according to forbes.com Sam Waltons 5 heirs have $85 bil. combined. Other Americans that come mind: Rockefeller, Carnegie, Hughes, Vanderbilt, etc. But what about Ceaser, or other Emporers, Kings, Pharohs, Sultans or Czars.

In recorded history (based on $/millions/billions) Rockefeller still remains the richest at around $190 Billion - http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/content_pages/record.asp?recordid=54516\n\nBut that is only based on recorded history - if you go back some time - hardly any comparison could be made. At times it was the vastness of your land, no. of women, Cattle, gold or jewels or soldiers. Anything could be used to measure richness - the paper money was not in existence - it was more like barter system.\nIn a region where cattle was considered to be a sign of richness they would hardly part with cowdung for a ton of gold! Today we are able to compare rates betweeen various currencies & the job becomes easier!

some creatine might help you. it decreases muscle recovery time and supposedly gives you more stamina dont worry its legal too. \n\nThe basics of most nutrition books\nDon’t starve yourself. That’s the worst thing you can do in a diet because it slows down your metabolism and your body starts getting more fat from your food intake since, fat is the bodies fastest and easiest type of nutrition[not the healthiest though]. The reason this happen is because this helped us when we were no doing so good as hunters and gathers to keep us alive a bit longer. \n\nBefore I continue let me explain protein, carbohydrates, and fats.\n\nProtein is easiest described as anything that comes from or was an animal such chicken, fish, sirloin, and milk. \n\nCarbohydrates [carbs] can be found almost in anything else even apples.\nGood carbs:\nApples, wheat bread, sourdough bread, grains, and wheat \nBad carbs:\nWhite bread, hamburger buns, hotdog buns, Doritos, and sodas!\n\nGood fats:\nAvocados, pecans, almonds, and peanut butter \n\nThe ratio in your diet varies but I think a good starting point is something like\n[50%Protien:40%Carbs:10%fat]\n\nThis can sound meaningless. So in plain terms consume only good fats [portioned] and you should be okay.  Something like a handful of almonds, or a table spoon of peanut butter should be consumed three times a day [separately. not consecutively]. \n\nThe reason this is relevant to your question of decreasing your appetite is because you are required to intake around 1200 calories for a 180lb person [Proteins are 4 calories, Carbs are 4 calories, Fats are 9 calories] so theoretically if you eat less fats and more proteins you will have a less appetite because you will eat more. \n\nAnother nifty advice is that your body turns carbohydrates into fat not fat itself. That’s how the Adkins basically works. If you consume more proteins and less carbs you will lose weight. I leave to you to decide if this is good you.\n\nI would also advice you to split up your day into 5 meals. [warning: it will feel weird because you are not used to eating this decreased amount. Just keep in mind that you will eat in 3 hour and you will quickly noticed that you will not go hungry and most importantly not feel hungry] if you do feel hungry eat a small snack like an apple or a wrap of peanut butter with a wheat tortilla.\n\nYou are suppose to split up meals because your body can consume a certain amount of nutrition the rest is just wasted and turned into fat [if you have been starving yourself or if you don’t exercise].


BCBS seems to cover everything.  Lots of choices for pills and other things. Call them or go online.\n\nAs far as why men are liars, that's a tough one.

Can I defer capital gains tax until I redeem the shares?

No.  The instant you ever receive any dividends, even if you immediately turn around and plow them back into the stock, it doesn't matter, you have recieved income, and that income is taxable.  \n\nThis is one of the many reasons real estate is my investment of choice; it doesn't have these pesky tax problems...


It is like a tree diagram and starts of with a question and a couple of options, then you get another question and set of options and it keeps going until you know the name of the object. I think it is used most in biology, to find out what animals are what and ditto with plants.

Shyguy is right.  It is called a phylogenetic diagram (or tree).  It is theorectical, based upon genetics and is a major part of cladistic analysis.\nAn older term is the Tree of Life and it is based upon the differences in the physical characteristics of life forms, allowing one to classify an individual specimen as a specific plant or animal.

It seems that a frozen asteroid would have its water evaporated by the vaccuum.

Most asteroids are made of rock and metal, not ice.  Comets, on the other hand usually do contain “dirty ice.”\nIndeed comets are being “freeze dried” in space, but it is when they approach the sun that the ice begins to melt forming the coma and tail of the comet.\nThe reason that comets do not completely “freeze dry” in space is due to their size.  Freeze drying only occurs on the outside of the comet, not on the inside.\nSee the site below for more details:


Reuters and S&P currently have these costs on their sites showing impact on EPS for the last 4-5 years.\nIs their methodology in detenmining these costs the same as that will be used by companies in 2006?

It should be the same methodology... the eps will be diluted by more expensing, and the number will be lower.


I understand that some Bible scholars contend that homosexuality is not clearly forbidden - only male temple prostitutes and promiscuity.

To answer your question without preaching. Some people on this site have a real problem with doing this. Yes. There is a scholarly debate on what the bible taches on almost every issue. These debates are called Scripture Theology. This acedemic area has seen lots of exiting changes in the last 100 years because of our increasing knowlege of history, and the use of the Historical Critical model. Some Christians reject this view that the scriptures are open to interpretation based on science, histrical facts, theolgical discusion, and the movement of the spirit. While thye may not agreeon all interpreations, most main line churches reconginse there is no final authority on scripture.


Lines of confluence, can they determine?

to find out what's on the opposite side of the globe, take the latitude and longitude of where you start, and apply the following transformation:\n\nlatitude:  change north to south, south to north\nlongitude:  add or subtract 180 degrees\n\nrotterdam is at 51 degrees 55' N latitude and 4 degrees 29' E longitude.  so, directly across the globe is the point at 51 deg 55' S, 175 deg 31' W longitude, which according to google maps, is about 350 miles southeast of the southern tip of new zealand.


This is when you feel like you aren't really you that you are sort of in a dreamlike state.

OH YEAH ... not a very good feeling, being detached.  I have also felt like I was, literally, in a dream.  It was weird, like no one saw me but I saw them.  It wasn't like I was being ignored, just as if I was watching "life" go on and kinda like I was a ghost.  Is that what you meant?


They are making money off of customers, whether it be from loans or stick you with a overdraft fee?\nalso they are upgrading there computer systems/building new branchs. How the heck can you be claimed as a \nnon-profit when these things occur?

Because they pay those profits back to their members/customers in the form of dividens. Credit Unions are designed to make money for their customers. Of course they have to pay the salaries and all the overhead, and usually keep a certain amount of liquid cash in reserve to work with, but the remainder is paid back to the account holders -- making them non profit.\n\nAs far as upgrading and building new buildings, these sorts of things are done by a vote of the board of directors which the members of are voted on by the customers. If the board feels its necessary to build a new branch, to better serve the members, or to upgrade computers, to better serve the members, they have the right to take away from the profit pool to do so. This means that the members get less a dividen than they would have that particular year. If the members think the board is spending fivously, cutting into their profits, they vote in new members of the board to correct for that activity.\n\nIt's a very democratic way of doing things, but, just as in the case of our federal and state governements, these board members (like politicians) take advantage of the fact that very few members actually use their democratic voice when it comes to the choices they make.


i mean seriously would you get mad if your bf/gf went to the movies with his/her friends. He/she was called last minute and so he/she got ready and went to the movies to catch up with his/her buddies. But he/she never told his/her bf/gf.. but then the bf/gf found out about it a couple of days later.. and he/she was mad... now would you be mad if your bf/gf did that? if so why and if not why?

Ok, first of all, your bf/gf isn't your husband or wife, so he or she has no obligation to tell you something like that unless you guys live together. IF you a courtesy note would have being nice on his/her part to let you know where he when so you wouldn't be worried. \n\nAnd if he or she didn't tell you, well. Get over it, he/she has a life, and independent life. You are just part of that life. \n\nNow, the question is are you mad because he didn't tell you? or were you pisst because you didn't go? what ever your reason is. Get over it, something like that would be a good enough cause for a break up. \n\nThats just me, i like to be independent and have my space and time respected by anybody. You should respect his time alone or with his friends


You know, considering that's what this country was built on. Or should we just let it all crumble to the ground?

The fact that the country was founded, in part, by a religious people - the Puritans - is precisely why we should be careful to keep one view of God out of our schools and government.\n\nThe Puritans left England because they disagreed with the English about the details of religion, and religion was built into the English government. While many Americans are Christians right now, there's still plenty of disagreement about exactly how religion should be observed - if religion is in government and school, then the government and schools have to choose a precise definition of religion, and chances are, it won't quite be the religion you believe in.\n\nSo, instead, when this country was founded, we established the doctrine of separation of Church and State, which guarantees that the government will not interfere with your religion. The school won't teach a religion to your children, so you can teach your children what you want them to learn. The government won't give money to churches - or take taxes from them - so they're not funding things you might not agree with, or taking money that you've given to your church.\n\nWhile, sometimes, it might seem like the government is preventing people from doing something with their religion - like praying in school - it really stems from this freedom to choose; if we have one prayer in schools, then the government is saying there's a right way to pray.\n\nSo, to keep the country from crumbling to the ground, we all agree not to force our neighbors to pray like us - and, in return, our neighbors don't use the law to make us pray like them.


Freedom the government brain washes us with all the time.\nFreedom not for the middle class.\n But freedom for the rich, to price things any way they please.\nBoston tea party only took 2% of the public to change the country.\nIsn't it time we stood up. Or keep on bitching.

When we elect Libertarians to office, that will be revolt enough. Voting for a democrat or republican is just a vote for "continue what you're doing." Voting for a Libertarian? All Rights Returned, asap, the Constitution restored and enforced. Peace, freedom, liberty, prosperity, America honored by other nations.


My wife has been addicted to pain killers and xanex for about seven years.  Without realizing it i've become more and more co-dependent over the years, to the point that my life is pretty much in shambles (but not hopeless).  I'm a shell of the person I was seven years ago. Feels like I'm just hanging on by my fingertips, and I have two boys,7 and 8, that I've pretty much raised by myself and I cannot let this go any further for their sakes. I just don't know what steps to take. Getting away from her might help a lot but I've done plenty to get myself into this mess. I've become very adept at isolating myself and avoiding confronting a problem head on in hopes it will just disappear. I was never like this before.

If you really want to recover from co-dependency, you need to know exactly what you're doing to encourage,  and most of all WHY you do it.\n\nThere are support groups for all types of co-dependency that will acquaint you with the 12 steps, as designed by Alcoholic Anonymous, and prior to that seven of them were actually found in the Bible.\n\nIt's all about your own spirituality or lack of such.  Since you know you're behaving as a co-dependent, you probably feel as you mentioned in your question, that it's easier to do it and hope it will all just disappear.  That's a childish way of thought.  Nothing as serious as drug or alcohol abuse will 'just go away'.  If it were that simple, people would stop using when they found it didn't bring the joy they once hoped for.\n\nWe need to learn the steps to self-love and relinquishing control as a beginning.  You control your wife by fulfilling her need for pain-killers.  If you didn't do that, do you fear deep down that she might leave you, or at least not acknowledge you as you wish?  If you truly loved yourself, you wouldn't feel that needy because you would be happy with only yourself, if that's what the outcome would be to refusing to help your wife get what she wants.\n\nThe spiritual basis is very important.  You need to have a strong and sincere faith to be able to make the changes neccessary for a better life for your family and yourself.\n\nPlease locate a Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous meeting group and encourage your wife to attend.  You, on the other hand must attend the AlAnon or Naranon meetings for your own support and information. It will widen your self-knowledge and bring you closer to your God belief. This is not a 5 minute or 5 day recovery program.  It is a lifetime committment for your wife and perhaps you as well.  Their are groups for the children of addicted parents or other close family members.  There is Alateen and ACOA as well as naranon.  Please locate Alcoholics Anonymous in your phone directory and call for more information.  They are more than happy to get you started on the road to peace and happiness.\nMany blessings to you,\n\nMy opinion only


This guy that I am seeing only wants me for sex. I have never been on an actual date where he takes me anywhere. I am not experienced in telling people that its over. What do I say? How do I say it? I dont want to hurt his feelings but I dont want to keep having sex with him just because I dont know how to tell him no more. Help!

It is not a matter of hurting his feelings or not.  You should learn to express yours.  If you feel that he is using you just for sex and not trying to build a lasting relationship, tell him that.  It sounds like you might be ready for some kind of relationship, but you find that he is not.  Perhaps this will help you in the future.  Sex should be more than just a good feeling.  It is also something which strengthens the bond of a relationship.

Because the truth of it all is not everyone wants peace. Do not fall victim to the false notion that everyone is really beautiful deep down, because there are some very ugly people out there. Peace is a very nice idea and the world would be a better place, and as long as people like you strive to make it one it wont go straight to hell. Just know not everyone likes their neighbor and never will no matter who they are or what they do. Thank you for the things you do, and please continue to do them even when you get discouraged.

My best friend is in love with this boy but when im around he wants to flirt with me and he seems to forget that she is around...She crys all the time because she thinks that she will never be ablt to win his heart over..and just monday me and her was talking about this boy and his ex was listening so she went back to them and they started dating friday and now she is really heartbroken and i dont kno what to say to her or do so can you please help me?

You already are helping her!  Sounds like you are a good friend.\n\nSo you can keep being her friend...keep listening to her, being there for her, supporting her.  It's SO hard to find the right person...and just tell her that she's a good person, someone is out there for her and hopefully she'll find him soon!  This guy she liked doesn't sound very nice, so I think she's better off without him!


I watched every episode last season and haven't seen much this season. I watched the season finale last night, but only to the point where they showed Quinten tied to the wall with his face cut and the blood written on the wall saying "I can't stop". So when a friend told me later that it turned out that it was Quinten... I was so confused and didn't get to see how it happened... Fill me in!!!! :)

Quentin was the Carver, mainly, but had some help from his sister, Kit (Rhona Mitra) who was the female police detective in charge of the Carver investigation. Between his obvious mental issues and the hatred for people viewing outside beauty as a main focus in life, the Carver(s) went and lashed out at those who helped people become more physically beautiful. Eventually at the end of this episode, the Carver managed to get both Christian and Sean tied up. He clipped off Sean's pinky and was going to force Christian to saw off Sean's hand, but then Kit shot and "killed" Quinten before that could happen. Later, Kit picked up Quinten from the morgue and they moved to Spain to continue their Carver work there.


he just started going out wiht her like a week ago...but we both know that we love each other...yet he wont break up with her because she moved back up to ny from fl to be with him...why are guys like this????????

hun its not guys.. im going through the same thing with the person i love... it all comes down to thoughts.. thinking is the worse thing in the world... becuz the devil is involved with your thoughts.. (your mind is the devils playground) so he probably missed her.. and wants to change and thinks theres something there.. just like my situation.. the guy came back.. after a year and she thought there was something there.. remember THOUGHT... when people dont follow there emotions.. thts when confusion comes in.. and confusion is everything bad... so i hope this helps you a little bit and if not im me... Epik_Liphe and i can talk to u a bit... but dont believe its 'guys', its just 'him in tht situation' it may not be he dont love you... its tht hes confused... it may not be plain to see.. and he may not say that.. but if its real love.. hes confused... take it easy hun.. try not to get upset..


she cam e to the US 5 years ago and has a 3 year old girl...not mine...we've been togehter for 2 years and i need to know if we get married and file with Immigration she won't get deported...thanks for the help

I second using a more reliable source. Immigration is very complex law. \n\nThat said, if you're a bona-fide US citizen and marry an illegal alien (whose only infraction of law is illegal presence and/or illegal employment, and there are NO other criminal or moral problems) -- your spouse may be able file to adjust status on the grounds of being an immediate relative of a US citizen. I'm not sure about the child though. Once you file such a petition, your spouse is safe from being deported, until the petition is decided. If approved, your spouse becomes a permanent resident, and after 3 years, can apply for citizenship. If not, spouse needs to leave the country or file an appeal to fight the decision.\n\nNow the need for a lawyer: this can multiple years, and even a small mistake can jepordize the entire process -- and you'll have a really badly separated family. \n\nSo speak to a lawyer. If that's too expensive an option, large public libraries offer invite law professionals who consult for lower cost or free. \n\nI'm not a lawyer; above is only a slightly informed person's attempt to answer.

I am sorry this is just for My Knowladge.I don't mean to provoke anything.Thank for a good answer.\n==========================\nWhat is women in Islam think about poligamy. I made some studies in Modern Muslim country it look like they don't like poligamy.\n\nAt what age Muhammad married Aishah(Hope I am writting correctly) and how many wife he have?? Why and what is the reason behind that.

Dear SellCar,\n\ni really hope you got a good reason behind those questions, anyways ill answer your question.\n\ni read some strange answer above ;(, so i hope i can make it clear \n\n\nOfcourse every woman hates polygamy, God created woman to hate anyone that shares her love, but in Holy Quran it says and made it clear for men that they should not take more than one wife unless they have their reasons, like for example some wives dont have the ability to be pregnant, its no body's fault of course but as a man everyone likes to be a father, therefore he can marry another wife.\n\nanother reason for men might be that some men need more than one woman and he is not getting enough, therefore he could make sin with other woman which is bad for Islam teachings and social life and reputation, or he can marry another woman that will give him more pleasure and in the same time he is not making any sin.\n\nMoreover, if you now make a study you will find that number of men is much more less than number of women in the world, years ago in Germany they where surprised to find that 1 man is being borned for every 4 women!!\n\nfor a reason that no one knows except God he knew that this will be the case, therefore he authorised to have more than wife, or else we will have more than half of the woman not married for the rest of their lives.(speaking about Islam societies only, western countires men and woman stays with no marriage usually for the rest of their lives)\n\nGod authorised polygamy for more better reasons ofcourse, but i only know these.\n\nand of course there is no polygamy for men in Islam ;), because at that stage we cant know who is son or daughter of whom.\n\nand for a man being with a legal woman is ofcourse much better than being with a new woman everyday or month ;(\n\nIslam makes a great social life by its teachings.\n\n============\n\ni really dont know the exact age of Muhammad(PBUH) when he married Aisha, but i think in 40's.\n\nGod didnt authorise for muslims to marry more than four wives and in a certain conditions, but for messenger of God (Muhmmad PBUH) he authorised for him to marry more, i do know one reason now for this is that Mohammad(PBUH) wanted to make links with the arab tribes across arabia to spread Islam, and as a messenger of God marrying one of the women in a tribe it was a very good impression to make for those tribes, which later he made friendship with them and they followed Islam teachings, therefore marrying more than one wife helped the spread of Islam at that time, and it made for Islam a good base in Arabia.

Well I personally like Mike Jones voice. I like bow wow because he is cool and he does not try to be older than he really is. Romeo, being Master P's son has no choice but to do well in the entertainment industry. I am not sure how great of a rapper he is..but he is good on his little Nick or Disney show that my niece watches. Now 50 cent I am just tired of him, I am not impressed anymore. Its like how or why do you come into the game and just bang on everyone for publicity. That is wack. He is kinda wack.


We will be the only two people there (no friends or family).  We've already talked about marriage being in the near future and our trip is in 5 weeks, so why not?

hands of service - the famous  carving of 2 hands

The famous "carving" (it was actually a sketch) of two hands is, "Hands of the Apostle" by Albrecht Dürer (1471 - 1528). The story goes that they are the hands of his brother that worked hard so Albrecht could go to "Nuernberg [sic] to study at the Academy". There is not factual source for that story.

Although I like google a lot, it will last it times before it offers such a functionality!
