Leaving for a ski trip in a week, need to get well by then, any tips for how to fight my cold.

The thing about the common cold (rhinovirus) is that we have no natural immunity to its various strains, we simply need to fight each new strain as it comes along.  Over-the-counter medicines DO NOT FIGHT your cold, they simply make your symptoms easier to handle while your body does the work.  For me, I say, this takes too long and is unnecessary.  There must be a way to supplement our body's natural defenses, to aid our body in its fight against this virus.\n\nRecently, to prevent catching colds over and over again from my 350 kids at school, I started taking large doses of vitamin-C.  This is one of those "who knows if this really does anything" kind of preventions/cures, but I really think it's helpful.  I recommend Emergen-C which comes in little packets that you dissolve in water - it is jam-packed with vitamins and whatnot to help aid your immunity.\n\nAlso, I know homeopathic remedies get a lot of flak.  But I have to say - just because the FDA hasn't run a test on these drugs doesn't mean they're not effective.  A lot of homeopathic remedies come from herbs and plants, just as most medicines championed by the FDA (aspirin, for one, which is made from treebark) are also "herbal".\n\nLook for a remedy called "Umcka" made by the company Nature's Way.  (Check a nutrition or vitamin shop in the homeopathic section).  This is a liquid (drops) made of a plant found in South Africa, and I SWEAR it begins working instantly, as soon as you start dosing.  My school nurse recommended it to me and I soon learned that one of my seventh graders - who is NEVER out sick mind you - also swears by the stuff.\n\nI couldn't get rid of an upper respiratory infection (viral, basically a chest cold) and as soon as I started taking Umcka my cough cleared up and a couple days later I was perfect.  Now when I feel the colds creeping, I dose vitamin-C and start taking Umcka.  So far I've been cold free!  That's not easy in a school full of kids!\n\nGood luck.  Enjoy your trip.

I have been living in the Netherlands off and on since 1990.  Have just received my Dutch nationality.  I may not have dual citizenship.  Must give up my USA nationality in order to remain a Dutch national.\nLooking for some pro's and con's into USA vs Netherlands living.

Pro to living in Holland.  the health care system, education is better. the culture is more loose and comfortable, less conservative.  To me you have more freedoms in holland.  there is less land however i think that is just one minor downside.  I am in a similar situation where i might have to give up my citizenship to the united states.  and to me its worth the risk.  if you get your citizenship in holland, technically speaking you have the whole of the european union at your disposal.  once you have that you can work in other countries with ease.. live any where... America has changed alot over the past few years... i think it would benifit you more if you lived in holland


Is it possible, between strait people of offoite sexes or there is always the question of love and sex pops of the change the direcion..

Yes I think it can be a possibility. Especially since you value that person alot and yet have the sensibility to know that you cannot take things to another level :-)


I am looking for a copy of the death certificate for David L. Epps, born 12/13/47, died in Miami, FLorida on or about 4/23/1994.

Hey, just bringing this old question up for a vote.


Every one knows what a 69 is, but what is 72


For example, mine claims she's "sick" all the time.  She's not.  When she claims she's sick she urges to go home.  Because she knows our ASM (Associate Store Manager) won't let her leave, she goes and pleads to others to send her home.  Not only does that behavior really get old, but she loves doing a no call no show.  What wouldn you do in my situation.  I'd like your advice.

No call no show, once, it's cool; more than once, write up; another write up, time to go.  \n\nI think that writing her up can probably prevent your company from getting in trouble if she decided to sue for anything.\n\nIf they really wanted to keep their job, then they would not be behaving this way and taking their job for granted.\n\n\nAdded:  Maybe two write ups.  (For the same offense.)

Robooting sometimes helps -- for a while. Sometimes my cam goes dark immediately. The next day it may do the same. Sometimes it it alright for several minutes. When I see it 'pop' on top of all the windows, it has likely 'frozen' up. Usually, it takes longer for me to see that effect. I usually use within Yahoo IM. But it is seen otherwise as too.

There can be two reasons why this might occur, one is that you might have a lower connection speed to the Internet.  As you know, video transmission requires a high speed Internet connection.  If you have a slow connection there will be freezing.\n\nThe second reason may be due to lack of sufficient resources on your computer.  Video processing is a computationally intensive process and requires lot of system resources.  Try to open fewer applications when you have turned on your cam.  In addition, you can increase your system resources using steps mentioned on this website:

I am a professional and an avid follower of the game of cricket. I have this fascination to become a professional cricket umpire and I dream to become a member of the elite panel of umpires of ICC someday. I would like to know how to get started so as to be able to realise my dream. I am not at all aware about the procedure to be followed in this regard. Kindly guide me on the same.

Introduction to international umpires and referees\n\nOne of the ICC's key priorities is to ensure that international umpires and referees perform at the highest standards possible. \n\nThe ICC appoints the world's best officials to the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires and Referees and provides an assessment and support system to aid umpires and referees in their development. \n\nThe ICC has four officiating panels:\n\n• The Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires;\n• The Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Referees;\n• The Emirates International Panel of ICC Umpires; and\n• The ICC Associates and Affiliates Umpires Panel.\n\n\nThe role of a cricket umpire is one of the hardest officiating tasks in international sport and sometimes calls are made for technology to play a greater role in cricket, but the ICC believes it is important not to override the basic philosophy that cricket is a game and human umpires are part of that game. \n\nThe ICC is committed to trialing technological innovations but technology will only be introduced into the game if it:\n\n• can provide conclusive answers;\n• is practical to introduce for all international cricket;\n• does not compromise the role of on-field umpires; and\n• does not change the essence in which the game is played.\n\nBecoming a member of the Emirates Elite and International Panel of ICC Umpires\n\n\nTo become a member of the Emirates Elite or International Panels of ICC Umpires, officials must be standing regularly in first-class cricket in a Full Member country of the ICC.\n\n\nFrom the list of first-class umpires, each country nominates their two best-performing umpires to the Emirates International Panel of ICC Umpires, and their next best to the position of TV Umpire.\n\n\nMembers of the Emirates International Panel of ICC Umpires are then eligible to be chosen for ICC events such as the ICC Cricket World Cup, ICC U/19 Cricket World Cup and the ICC Champions Trophy.\n\n\nThey can also be appointed from time to time to stand in Test matches to provide cover for members of the Elite panel. \n\n\nThe ICC closely monitors the performance of these umpires at international cricket. Those that show that they have the qualities to perform at the highest level, may then be invited to become full-time members of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires.

I am a amature web designer and I am looking to start a online business....... I am looking for something that can be very profitable with a low over head.

Think of all your interests & ask yourself if any of those could be expanded into a business. Just keep in mind...what's your expertise? What are your interests? What could you imagine yourself doing?\n\nThen, once you have some ideas, research, research, research. Check out the competition -- their business practices, pricing, customer service, etc. And also think about what you could offer to set yourself apart from these other companies.\n\nCheck the sources for some handy sites.\n\nPrior to investing your time, money & effort into a business name, it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound, appearance and meaning affect you too!\n\nThere are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter, if close in sound, appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million).


It's a desktop model, horizontal. Sides of front panel have semi-circular "buttons" that push in, but front does not seem to loosen. I don't want to break the case. Any ideas?

There maybe some thumb screws on the back that have to be taken off. Thats how it is on my Compaq. \n\nAlso those cases tend to come off backwards, meaning you pull the cover to the back of the computer. On newer computers the front rarely comes off.

I am 16, have a great personality, very intelligent and pretty, but no guy seems interested. Along with my question, how important is a girl's breast size to you? Could that be it??

An intelligent girl, who is also pretty is very hard to come by these days, I don't blame the girls, I just blame the whole, it's ok to be stupid I am beautiful trend. It is very depressing, I am 17, and many girls in my school have no idea of what they even want out of life, all they know is, they don't need to know, because everything has, and always will be handed to them in life. So you are a very rare breed of girl these days, and if you looked in the right places, I am sure you could find a slew of guys. Breast size, only someone immature or, in our case, given we are only in highschool, someone way to mature for you would think breast size is an issue. So if you take anything away from this, let it be that you deserve a guy of the same value as you, make sure you don't settle for someone who isn't intelligent, smart, and IN YOUR EYES attractive, because you deserve that and more.......Ohh and heres my aim if you would like to talk.

Friend in  trouble needs to hire a trial lawyer going to interview them.. the trouble is don't know what makes a good trial lawyer.

The best is ask him of his trial outcomes of the past. Find out if he's a good trial lawyer. Note that a trial cost lots of money, see if you can't find a lawyer that could get u to cop a good plea. Remember...Justice isnt blind. The Jury has eyes. Also they dont have to prove w/ out a reasonable doubt that your guilty, 12 people just have to think you are. If they think you did it. You did it.

Lake Volta\nIn Ghana, Lake Volta, the largest man-made lake in the world, extends from the Akosombo Dam in southeastern Ghana to the town of Yapei, 520 km (325 miles) to the north. The lake generates electricity, provides inland transport, and is a potentially valuable resource for irrigation and fish farming.


in the state of Maryland, what is the legal age for getting a tattoo or percing without parental permission?

My husband is a tattooist in New York State.....the legal age (in a tatoo parlor) is 18.....NO EXCEPTIONS....If a tatooist works from his/her own home they are free to make the choice but most will say 17 with parental consent only.Piercings are usually 16 with parental consent.If you decide on a tattoo parlor PLEASE make sure that it is one with a good reputation......=)

Does saliva spread HIV virus through kissing? How long will it take one to learn if they are HIV positive?

well yes there's still chance for that, aside from sexual intercourse, HIV can be acquired through blood transfusion, or if you have an open wound and your partner has one and those two wounds touch each other, just be sure both of you dont have an open wound on your lips before kissing, the virus's incubation period takes a long time and is virtually undetectable unless if you go for a check up.


Nestorian order is an persuasive technique.\n\nhere's the nestorian order format:\n\nParagraph One: \n\nIntroduce your paper.  Again it is important to get your reader's attention here.  And again an example or anecdote works well.  At the end of this paragraph state your proposition.\n\n \n\nParagraph Two:\n\nState and develop your second best reason in this paragraph.\n\n \n\nParagraph Three: \n\nState and develop your third best reason in this paragraph.\n\n \n\nParagraph Four: \n\nState and develop your best reason here.  The reason that you are doing this is because you want your reader to leave your paper with your strongest argument in his mind.\n\n \n\nParagraph Five: \n\nConclude your paper with power.

I'm a sophmore and I and haveing a little trouble undertanding how to name coumpounds.  Could any one explain it so a 15 or 16 year old could understand. Our teacher  rumbles.

I started to write a simple answer, but there really is not a simple answer.  Try the sites listed below and see if one makes any sense to you:


Hi, i am new to using Indy and is trying to create a simple client server chat program and need to add file transfer to it so fare no luck with it any demo/ advice would be appreiated thank

I've used the Indy 8 and 9.  The standard TIdTCPServer component should suffice to build a simple chat application.  The client application would use the TIdTCPClient component.  The most direct method is to work out some standard commands, and assign them to the server's CommandHandlers property.  It would also be useful to work out some standard response codes so the client knows what the server is doing.\n\nWhen chat messages are sent (for example through a SendCmd call to TIdTCPClient), you simply have the CommandHandler on the server read the incoming text (OnCommand for the CommandHandler) the iterate the clients (TIdTCPServer.Bindings) and Write the text to the connections.  The clients can periodically call ReadLn (during a timer event) to check to see if the server sent any chat messages.\n\nThings to keep in mind:\nOn the server, each client connects using it's own thread, so you have to have some familiarity with thread synchronization.\n\nIf you're planning to use the chat server over the Internet, you should have a cursory understanding of how firewalls work (e.g. port blocking) in case clients can't connect to your server.\n\nUltimately, there should be some examples in you Indy install directory or in your Delphi demos directory.\n\nEnjoy!\n\nHope this helps.

Nanotechnology is unstoppably proliferating day by day.Microchips are clear examples of that.Cars which can not be seen by an ordinary person's eyes can be made by means of the nanotechnology.How have this situation come about?Perhaps,we may have a mobile phone dimensions of which the dimensions of a watch equals to ,in the close future.yes your remarks,please.

Nanotechnology is everywhere already, most people just don't know it. For nearly one hundred years US spies have been using miniature gadgets cleverly sealed within everyday things, popularized by the James Bond movies and other spy-thrillers.  The term nano is anything that we deem reallyreallyreally small. IE Ipod Nano, etc. I think by Nano you mean, REALLY small, and alot of things already are, like the phone and watch analogie you used, one of the best ways to keep in-touch with nanotechnology and to understand its direction, is to study its past and present first, try livescience.com or wikipedia.org, good luck!


I also wonder how many people in France recall that it was France who got Israel off to its start in the bomb business, when secretly agreed to supply it with plutonium-producding reactor at Diamona.

Isreal is an allay to the U.S.A, its is even more of a state for the united states than another country, if USA make sure that Isreal are powerful enough they are sure that the can contol the middle east, therefore it wont complain about isreal's nuclear power, in fact, USA helps israel's nuclear power become more.\nSince USA doesnt complain about israel's nuclear power all other contries in the world wont even dare to come close to this area in order to protect its realtions with the USA


they should a playoff with the bowls games. we had enough bowls games to make it work.  all the conference champs is invite and four teams from the top 25 is invite.  forget about the rotating bowl site, the final game is play at the rose bowl during the second week of january.

There really is no easy answer for this.  While I agree that a playoff system is fair, there is no concensus on how it should be implemented.  Some feel it should be the top 8 or 16 teams regardless of conference.  However, some people feel each conference should have an equal chance at winning a championship.  What it will essentually come down to is how much money can be made.


I personally love the Los Angeles Lakers.

My wife is flying to New England, her Pocket pc has wifi on it. What does she have to do to accsess the internet at airports and other places there. I went to find hotspots, does she need a account with some other server. Ours here at home is a small dial-up company. Cant do much.\nThank You

Usually when you go anywhere and activate the WiFi on your system, it will find the hotspots for you, and will let you know if it's unsecure (which you can connect to for free, unless it's a paid one and you'll know if it is), or a secure one (which usually requires a WAP key which you purchase from wherever you are, such as Starbucks).  \n\nJust try and connect and sniff out the hotspots, and one of them is bound to be free. If not, when you connect, you're usually directed to a website that asks you to purchase time.  You'll figure it out. :-)

I am interested in learning of an area known for being a place where the liberal left-wingers live... I don't believe there is such a place.  Do you know?


No matter how much of a LP fan(atic) I am, I can't say that they are the best. Wonderfully creative music videos and cool lyrics. But, Chesters vocals can be a little over-the-top (by over-the-top, I mean he screaches, but that's my favorite part), and Mike's rap parts aren't for everybody. Drums could use a little work, but great musicians otherwise. On a scale of 1-20 I give them an overall...ugh...13. You have no idea how much that killed my to type.


For example, if u met a lot of ppl maybe different than ur culture and the way u live, and found them not as good as u r, maybe in their behaviors..etc, so in this case can we say that the whole SOCIETY not deserve to live in this world, they're bad ppl, and we shouldn't deal with them at all or wut!

no society is good or bad there are people with different nature in every society....


It makes no sense to me why anyone would drive a vehicle covered in snow and can only see out the small space that their windshield wipers cleared. Haven't these drivers ever gotten in accidents, ever had snow from another vehicle blown onto to their car obscuring their vision? Ignorance? Laziness? or both?

I second the motion (or third it as the case may be).  There is no acceptable reason for anyone to drive with snow covering any of the glass surfaces on their vehicle, including the headlamps.  More accidents are caused by this than by snow on the streets and roads.\nEven if someone is driving another person to a hospital or some other emergency, they should take the time necessary to clear off the glass.


When I go from web site to web site, my computer sometimes says that there has been a run time error and asks if I wish to debug.  I have no idea whats going on.  It has been crashing on me lately too.  I have no idea whats going on.

I have a friend, he is soooooooooo lovely and he always help me and he is with me everytime I need him, well not always, thats my problem... he never keeps his promises and it hurts, for example he tells me Lets go fishing, i Promise we will go and never keeps them, and i get mad and upset... what can i tell him? how can i tell him? Am I acting like a baby for getting upset with him?\nHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP

A promise is a promise and is meant to be kept. No, you are not acting like a baby. You should tell him that when he makes a promise and doesn't keep it that you are disappointed. Tell him not to make plans if he can't follow through. If he doesn't change his behavior then you might have to find another friend. You could be setting yourself up for a lifetime of broken promises. Yes, there are people who are like that.


I mean if you girlfriend is just friends with a guy who is sexier and hotter than Usher, more money than Oprah, and the nicest personality to match, Do you really think she can be just a "friend" and not try to have some of that he got going on? Keep it real. And fellas can you be just friends with a girl who looks hotter than a Playboy Playmate? Keep it real.

Depends on whether the guy / girl looks only at the body for their definition of a date. If that's the case, then no. If not, then it's possible, though your "personality" thing has got me in a bind. It just takes a lot of appreciation, respect, and oh yeah, maybe a different date helps. ^_^


Odds.. judging the best participants in races either of equal class or not equal......... X ran three races  and won all thus 3/3=100%.....Y ran 6 races and won one , placed second and failed in the third.. thus 6/110=33%.....Z ran 10 races and won three and came in third 3 times..10/303=60%....A ran 8 races won twice, placed second twice and third twice..thus 8/222=75%.....Who would be considered the best? or is this not possible. Thanking you in advance.

im male, eat bocca, military, spare tire. help!!!

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

i really like this guy and he really likes me i mean he is alwasy goivin me hugs when ever he see's me give me some advise?

Have you talked to him about this?  The one thing I feel is the biggest problem between men and women is their lack of communication.  I think if we all just sat down and talked about our issues we wouldn't have nearly as many problems.  Granted, women are WAY more talkative when it comes to their feelings than men, but if a man wants to open up he will.\n\nTake this guy on a long walk or find somewhere somewhat private to take him and sit him down and ask him what's going on.  Don't be pushy or ask him a ton of questions, just ask him how he sees your relationship.  Ask him what he thinks is going on and where he sees it going.  And pay attention to his body language and expressions.\n\nGood luck!

who was the greatest president of all of them from george washington to george bush

So many were great in so many different ways. We had our great communicators, our great foreign diplomats, our great policy builders. I'm so horrible about "picking a favorite" anything. Movies, foods, music.....etc. I guess its because I like to think everything out there serves its purpose. So I'll say all were the greatest. Heck, even Herbert Hoover had some good qualities. ;)

ok so he is my best friends boyfriend and i've known her since we where in prekay. well his name is Dalton Soul and he is so cute and hes a good friend of mine also. . i just can't tell if he likes me or not because he's always playing around with me and whispering in my ear telling me that i'm his best friend in the whole world. i hang out with him every day because he wants me to. and i just don't know how to tell him. i think he likes me but i can't tell if hes trying to give me signs or not. so what should i do?

don't even think about it! if you think about him in a cushhy way,don't! wait,and if they break up you should ask her if it's alright to go out w/ him.\nBut otherwise if you make a move on him or flirt and you bff sees than your in trouble,and then iono she might do something like say i hate you! or i can't believe you did that!something like that but try not to do anything bad.


Since it appears that MANY of these questions are from teens looking to connect and get information from their peers, how about the home page have 2 links ? One to Yahoo! Jr. (or Teens) and one for... I don't know 17 yrs and up ? I know it can't be regulated, and the adult section would still need to be kept "clean", but at least the adults wouldn't get annoyed by the attempts at teen humor & inane questions, thus, the questions would be more suited to the individuals and their time.

I agree that there would me many benefits to having multiple versions of this site, triaged by age. Please tell the Yahoo! Answers people I say so.  I'm certain that my support will carry the day for you. ;-)

Could you find someone beautiful even if they are a bit overweight?  when you see someone of of the opposite sex do you consider a larger person more attactive, less attractive, or the same as a person of average size?

Personality has a lot to do with it. A larger person with a great personality is better off than a small peson who sucks.

From where can I get the ASP page which can check the Credit card numbers and whether they are valid or not.\nI have made an account with paypal but I dont know whether I should store the data of the form. but as the online payment system has to be safe I can't store their credit card numbers in my database. is it possible to store their name and address without storing their credit card information.

There are a few different online credit card processors to which you can incorporate links into your site that will handle most of the work of processing the transaction for you, at a small fee for handling the transaction.  Companies like PayPal or CCBill are possible venues for this.\n\nSome of these services may require that you have a merchant account; or, they may have you share their merchant account as an "agent" for the processor.\n\nIt's usually not a good idea to collect credit card numbers in your own database due to several legal issues that could arise.  VISA has strict regulations on how credit card numbers are stored.\n\nIf you want to just 'check' a credit card initially for validity, there are a couple of things you can do.  The first is to check and see if the credit card number fits the rules of the 'card' type.  Credit cards start with a sequence of numbers that are assigned to various banking institutions.  VISA, MasterCard, JCB, etc. are assigned certain card prefixes.  Also, cards of these types can be a specific length depending upon their prefix.\n\nAssuming a card passes these checks, there is also a "check" that the card number must pass called a "LUHN" check.  If that fails, it will most likely not be accepted by your processing gateway.

What are the most effective and least expensive birth control methods and how do they work?

If you ar a virgin you hymen (the natural thin skin rim of your vagina that is present on a virgin) may tear which may cause some bleeding, it may be painful for you.  You should know that the only way to prevent pregnancy  and sexually transmitted diseases is to not have sex, but if you are going to be active please use birth control. The only form of birth control that prevents sexually trnsmitted diseases such as AIDS, Herpes, Hepatitis etc... is condoms and even they are not 100% effective. They can break or have a small hole in them you do not see. A condom should be new (the latex can break down over time) and in an unopened package.\nYou can get generic birth control pills from yuor doctor that are about $25-40 per month.  There are also spermacides and sponges available but they do not stop sexually transmitted diseases.


I am 17 and thinking about my future college and career.

Go for science. For one thing, you can make more money and there are many more opportunities. I was a chemist for about six years before going on for more education and the pay was good, the hours good and the people wonderfully intelligent and fun to work with. You're too young to limit yourself by foregoing serious education for something like massage. While that may be a good career choice if you've tried more intellectual pursuits and found you didn't like them, I wouldn't start there. Keep it as a backup if the science thing doesn't work out for you. Plus, the hours, working conditions and pay are much less for massage therapists than folks with a science background. (I have a friend who teaches at a massage therapy school, so I'm familiar with the lifestyle.) Good luck.

I have been married for 11 years.  About a year ago, my wife said that she used to love me when we first married, but that because of issues between her and my mother, she no longer loves me.  We have 2 kids.\n\nI still love her, but have been thinking of divorce since finding out that she doesn't love me.  We hardly talk anymore (except about the kids), and treat each other politely and go about our lives as parents but not as spouses.\n\nI am wondering how important it is to find someone to love me vs. finding someone to love.\n\nBefore people make assumptions, there is no affairs or other external issues.   We just don't communicate as spouses anymore.\n\nWhat do people think?  Is this common to feel this way??

I think that you need to talk to her about it.  I know what it is to feel like your going to lose the one you love. The real question is, is it worth it being with someone that doesn't love you the way you love them? Talk to her.  Go to counseling.  You might discover that she does love you and that there is a way to build that love up.  I wish you the best.  Good luck!


She is 3 months pregnant and has been layed up in bed for the past 2 months.  I'm bad with gifts.  Nothing too expensive...

Not to diss the previous answer but a day at the spa for a sick (layed in bed) pregnant women is not going to be good and/or comfortable. I'm pregnant now and about to have my baby, but I do remember those first few months where I was sick (although not layed in bed sick) and I felt yucky.\n\nBring her some flowers (make sure they don't smell too much, it might make her even more sick), get her a Valentine's day balloon and a get well soon balloon and a baby balloon.  And get her something she's craving. Bring her those things and then ask her what she wants to eat, when she tells you, go get it and set it up nicely in the bedroom with candles (unscented) and you can have a cute romantic dinner with something she likes and without her having to get out of bed.


Why are salaries not keeping up with cost of living; i.e., housing, utilities, health care, taxes, auto expenses, food, etc.\n\nIs this a result of special interest groups in politics?

It is not the result of the actions of special interest groups but the result of the increase of [standard deviation of revenues / mean of revenues].\n\nBecause of the existence of credit which discriminates for the rich against the poor, rich get richer and poor get poorer relative to the mean.\n\nThe marginal use of money (what they do with their last dollars) for the rich is 100% savings, the marginal use of money for the poor is 100% consumption.\n\nAs there is more money dedicated to saving and less for consumption. The return of every economic activities go down.\n\nFor the poor it means less revenues taken as wage and for the rich lower long term interest rates (GreenSPan Con-UN-Drum).\n\nTo sum it up the main cause of salaries going down is the distribution effect of the existence of credit. It is caused by the System not by special interest group.

And they're all invoking scripture as part of they're advice. \n\nOr maybe I'm missing something.  Has the population of religous zealots who wish to impose their beliefs and judgments on you increased in the past 10 years?

This website, unfortunately, is set up in such a way that it makes a very convenient soapbox.\n\nIf you're a person who is somewhat insecure in your religious convictions, or just, well...annoyingly zealous, then you'll flock to somewhere where you can easily dispense useless advice to a whole realm of people asking about something entirely different.\n\nI see it this way: you know the people handing out Chick Tracts on the street?  The evangelists accosting you in the mall?  The guy with the big sign telling you that the world is going to end?  They all have the Internet, and so do their buddies in every other city, state, and country - it adds up.  \n\nPlus, those who would love to proselytize in real life but don't have the social skills of courage to do so may be attracted to this site's anonymity.  \n\n(Note: This is in no way directed at people who answer questions about spirituality by talking about their own religions.  That's fine by me.  It's just to people like the girl who answered a man having headaches by telling him to find Jesus.)

yea.. i always wondered that. and now is the time i can find out.

The person who invented the QWERTY keyboard as we know it today...(the order of the first letters on the left hand are QWERTY) did it in that order because in the day of mechanical typewriters there were arms that came up and struck the letter through an inked ribbon and onto the paper. Because of the use of certain letters (mostly vowels) the mechanical arms would jam up and cause you to stop typing and manually unstick the arms. In the Qwerty configuration, the arms were less likely to stick as they were arranged in a manner that allowed them to swing back to their position without hitting the other arms. I am 34 years old and did actually have a mechanical typewriter at one time.....I know...I am old. But in high school we used these lame Apple Computers to learn to type with.


Usually just one eye also, I can't really figure this one out.

I would try a few things before going to the eye doctor IF you are in pretty good health. It might be something just out of habit or common sense thats causing your body to wake up this way. \n\n1st thing I would try for 3-4 days straight is to jump in a hot shower as soon as you wake up. Make sure you hit your face and eyes and hair with a good cleaning. I suspect various body oils from your hair and/ or skin are getting into your eyes through out the night.\n\n2nd thought: Your body is low on nutrition and/or water first thing in the morning. With dehydration and the lack of vitamins, your eyes are suffering. Some people this matters, other people dont ever need vitamins. Depends how strong your gene set is and what other not so great habits you intake like smoking or drinking. So my suggestion is when you wake up and during sleep, have some vitamin water next to your bed and drink up. Then as soon as you wake up go make yourself a healthy vitamin liquid shake and see how your eyes react. \n\n3rd: Sounds silly but do some form of stretching and mild exercise like walk up some stairs slowlllyyyy 4-6 times. See if your eyes are coming better into focus then. I suspect maybe some kind of position in which you sleep is cutting off the oxygen and/or bloodflow to your eye area. Some people sleep face down on their hands in the face, this would be an example. \n\n4th: Sleep apnea is another suspect---try BREATH RIGHTS strips for 7-10 nights on your nose. See if you wake up more refreshed and your eyes arent as blurry. You might have a breathing problem the way you sleep. 1 out of every 7 adults sleep in some harmful way that is NOT healthy for the breathing --doesnt matter if you are overweight or unhealthy.  \n\nShould be very interesting to see what combinations of this or that above helps you out. Email me and let me know how it goes ok? Good luck.


i'm ineligible for lasik because my cornea is too thin. afraid the risks involved with prk are too high, so i'm considering not having my vision corrected though i'd really like to stop wearing contacts and glasses.

It involves removing the very surface layer of the cornea, known as epithelium (usually about 50 microns thick), then lasering the exposed corneal bed.  This way, the laser is not vaporizing tissue as deep in the cornea as with LASIK, and the risk of ectasia (a de-stabilization of the cornea caused by lasering too deeply into the cornea) is lowered. the surface epithelial cells are removed with a soft brush. After the laser treatment, as with LASEK, a disposable contact lens is placed on the eye, without replacing the damaged epithelial cells. New epithelium regenerates naturally, over two to three days.

One "Batman" has Joker killing them, while "Batman Begins" has some random poor guy killing them. I know DC Comics are notorious for continuity flaws, so is there a final word on how his parents actually died?

Over the years, Batman's origin story, history and tone have undergone various revisions, both minor and major. Some elements have changed drastically; others, like the death of his parents and his pursuit of justice, have remained constant.\n\nAccording to the Silver Age version\nAs summarized in various stories, including 1980's Untold Tales of the Batman limited series that thoroughly retold Batman's Silver Age origin and history, Bruce Wayne was raised by wealthy socialites Dr. Thomas and Martha Wayne in Wayne Manor. As a child, Bruce saw his parents murdered at the age of eight by small-time criminal Joe Chill, after which he was raised by his uncle Philip Wayne. Bruce swore to seek revenge on all criminals, and launched himself into a lifetime of dedicated training similar to the Golden Age Batman's training.


ad in independent said to go to this site. no job found

As a managerial staff member of an unrelated company, I would ask you this question.  Why would you want to fill out an application on line?  Going to a location and filling out the application in person is a much better representation of yourself.  It shows that you are ambitious and that you want the job more than those that are too lazy to get off their rumps to apply.  (not to mention the online applications of most companies are put in the "circular file" - it may not be the most legal practice, but emails and such get lost from the Internet all the time.)


I am a new military wife, and it is the hardest thing for me, I miss my husband in the worst way, and I often find I I have no one to talk to. No one understands. I would like to meet up with people who are in the same exact situation. Once a week for lunch or so, and just talk, discuss and share. Lonelyness for laughter?

First off all my husband we in the military and got out in 1997, USAF. There are support groups for you already. Family Services on base has programs for wives. They should have play groups for children also. I think it would be easier for you to use the base since it is already done for you and then you can meet other wives and suggest going to lunch, babysite for each other, go to the laundry together, give each other rides to appointments. \n\nIt is a wonderful program.

i have had this cold for a month now... I am in Switzerland, and they dont exactly believe in taking medication for things like colds, even if it IS an infection...

Echinacea is a good choice.  Also, try ginger (it's antibacterial & antiviral, with other properties), onions and garlic (antibacterial and antiviral), an assortment of vitamins and minerals (especially vitamin c (particularly if you were already deficient in it)), cayenne pepper (a host of benefits), horseradish (host of benefits), plus many other herbs and spices.


I get emails that say so and died and left a fortune behind with no next of kin, the money needs to got to someone, or the one that says it wants to pay you too put their money in your account. What is the scam and do people fall for it?

There is actually a website documenting people fighting back and actually scamming the scammers, and getting the scammers to send money to THEM.  Check the link.

Try to be creative, but don’t make too complicated questions. \nThanks

Check out the Book of Questions-by Gregory Stock. It is just FULL of ideas for you!  I have it. \n\nFound it on Amazon- it's CHEAP!  I tried posting the link straight to the book but I guess it's too long.


I've had braces for almost a year now, and they told me about 2 months ago that I could get them off early. How long do you normally have braces?

It depends on the person and how quickly his/her teeth show movement or how much movement he/she requires! I only had braces for 10 months...my husband had them for 5 years! It is difficult for an orthodontist to speculate how quickly your teeth are going to move!\n\nSource(s):\nExperienced Dental Assistant


i know about software and design business card for print on normal paper. \nbut\ni dont know how to select material (paper)\ni dont know how to apply a water resistent layer\ni dont know how to print over plastic\ni dont know tip and trick to make advance.\n\nany one know where i can learn about it? or book i can buy?

You can buy business card paper for your printer at any office supply store. You can also buy "lamination sheets," probably at the same place.  You can then print out your cards, separate them, and use the lamination sheets to apply a plastic layer.

It depends on your scores . but as a friend :carry on your major until the end.


That is an extremely tough decision but i would have to go with Wade because he is almost just as fast but he is bigger and so much stronger. They both have about an equal amount of playmaking skills. AI is scoring more per game because his team depends on him more but I think we all know that Wade is very capable of the the ball in the basket. He doesn't have much of a perimeter game but he still edges out AI by a little bit.

really what is charge here is a clue its simbol is Q

"What is charge?" is perhaps an impossible question to answer.  It is much easier to answer what does a charge do and physicists have covered that in detail through careful laboratory experiments.  For example, when a small dumbell is suspended at the center by a quartz filament, the unit will rotate one way when approached by a like charge and the opposite way for an opposite charge.  And the force can be determined by calibration.\n\nThat said, like charges repel and opposite charges attract.  Atoms consist of nuclei of positive protons and neutral neutrons and are surrounded by a field of orbiting negatively charged electrons.  It is almost impossible to push together two nuclei because their positive charges strongly repel (fusion energy is produced in the sun when hydrogen nuclei are in fact fused by overcoming the forces at great pressure and temperature).\n\nWhen you sit on a chair, you are being supported because the electrons of your skin atoms (or clothes?) are repelled by the electrons of the wood atoms.  Nothing can actually touch if examined under the power of an electron microscope.  We know that two objects can not occupy the same space and that goes for two electrons or two protons.  But two objects can be glued together if they attract.  Two bar magnets can be glued together if you match unlike poles.  An electron can be glued to a proton to make a hydrogen atom, the lightest atom; but even here the electron can not enter the nucleus because it is excluded. But I'd guess it takes a lot of electrons to repel you when seated, right?  hope this helps a little.

I've seen CDs in those bargain racks at computer stores and Best Buy. They are cheap but I don't know if they are any good. I'd be interested in something military or action oriented. Just not interested in getting into games big-time. Anyone have any experience games that don't require those outboard contraptions?

well if if you are looking for pc games try some army games like call of duty or maybe deltaforce I always play warcraft but I dont know if it is you type though...pc games sometimes have advantage because platforms such as ps2 or xbox dont have them but i you played a game you like in a video game console try looking for the same game but for pc it will de´pend on your game types you like look for war games instead or action there is halo, painkiller, doom 3 all of those are good shooters games...good luck

tell me about the teachers,students,subjects,vacations,classes,\nactivities,school prom,how many hours do you stay in school?,detentions,and every thing you know about high school and your experience in high school

They pretty much suck. Most kids go to school for about 7 hours a day from about 8:15 to about 3:30. There are many different subjects you usually have to take an english, science, math, and history course every year. But then you can pick other classes like Spanish, Art, Physical Education, etc. Usually schools have a Christmas vacation and a spring break. There are many clubs and sports like FBLA, FFA, Drama, Quiz Bowl, Science Olympiad, Forensics, Peer Ambassadors, Students Council, etc. Prom is usually for juniors and seniors. I live in a really small town so freshman, sophmores, juniors, and seniors can go. Detentions are not given out unless you won't stop talking or doing other things you shouldn't. There are many types of students. Most students divide off into groups which usually include jocks, cheerleaders, dance team/popular girls, drama kids, wannabees, geeks, smokers/drinkers, sl**ty girls, and other people who just fade into the background. \n\nIf you want to know more email me at starfire_2890@hotmail.com


Because they study the Bible as literature, and not the Word of God. This is where belief comes in. You have to believe it, and apply it.


do you think bush spied on kerry thats why rove seemed like a genius when he had a crystal ball to spy on americans do you agree

In eighthgrade my history teacher compared Bush to Polk, they are the same in a lot of ways (that wa last year, I'm in 9th grade, and for some stupid reason 9th graders don't take history we take he stupidest class ever, Life Skills, in which you learnabsolutely nothing,instead). I don't know which is worse, and although I wish Bush would get impeached I doubt he will.


There was this traveller going down a road. He soon came to a fork in the road. Of the two roads, one goes to the forest and the other goes to the place (say X) where he wants to go. But he doesn't know which is the right road, and there are no road signs. But he does know that two men live nearby, who know the correct way. However, one of them always lies, and the other always tells the truth. Again, the traveller does not know who is who. He meets a person (has to be either the lier or the truthful man). What question should he ask so that he knows which is the correct road to take?

He asks one of the person, "Which road will the other man tell me leading to X?"\n\nJust take the opposite road.. Simple..\n\nJustification:\nIf the man was truthteller, then the other man would have told the person the wrong way and so the truthteller would also tell him the wrong way..\n\nIf the man was the liar, then the truthteller would have told the right way but the liar would tell the other way round to the traveller, hence the wrong...\n\nSo whatever answer the traveller gets for this question, he goes the opposite way.


Im making a cd for valentines day for my wife (age 23) any ideas for love songs old or new?


I;m trying to find out how much money i should be making at my job and i need an estimate that's as acurate as possible. I'm looking for something other than salary.com and something that's free.


total size of the MMC is 256 when formated it shows 234 MB used.

I think what he is saying is that his card shows 234 USED after he formats it, when it should be empty, which would be a problem.  Not to mention that you would not have a space loss of 22 megs on a 256 meg card.\n\nIs your card still under warranty?  If so I would suggest contacting the manufacturer and see if they will replace it.  \n\nThats what I would do first, and if its not under warranty, then I would scour the search engines for forum posts about problems with your card, and what you can do about it.


I am trying to install messenger.  It says that it is running, but when I go to my add/remove programs, it isn't even listed.  I try to delete it from my desktop, but it says that it is running.  Intask manager, it isn't  listed. Help...

Could be a number of things.... but try this.\n\nIf the the name of the .dll is given (XXX.dll), type it into a search engine and try to dowmload it. If you find it, save it to your "C:\windows\system32" folder. (Choose to replace if it is already there.) You may need to do this in safe mode. (Get to safe mode by pressing F5 key before windows starts loading at boot time.) After you've copied the DLL into your system32 folder, right click it and choose "open with". It will list several programs to open it with, but choose to browse for a different one. The program you will use is called "Regsvr32.exe" and it is found under your system32 folder. This will register the module with windows. Now try to open Messenger.\n\nIf this does not work, try this...\n\nYou mentioned that it isn't listed in Task Manager, but try browsing through the "Processes" tab (next to "Applications" tab). Look an item named either "messenger" or "msmsgs". If found, select it, right click it, and choose "End process tree".  Once ended, try again to install it and then hopefully it will work!\n\nIf not, email me @ cjmclellen@Yahoo.com...

I have eaten some bad fish and  i have a upset stomach isn't there somthing i can take to make me throw up? there may not be but i saw them take some like mollases on family guy let me know?

I have talked to my doctor and she says you should never make yourself throw up (unless you've been poisoned, you know, like eaten detergent or something) - your body is good about regulating that stuff and if you need to puke, it'll happen!  Ipecac is tricky because you can easily take too much (sometimes a tiny bit can be too much!) and then you'll throw up repeatedly, get dehydrated, and end up in the hospital.  If you *really* want to throw up, you can stick your finger down your throat, but I don't recommend it.  Let your body take care of itself!  Good luck - and sorry about that fish :)


am on workmanscompensation and was laid off while awaiting surgery, car was totaled in accident and not paid off. Need a car i can afford, any ideas?

Depends on how your morals are or how much you are willing to pay for a hunk of junk.  The buy here pay here places will sell you a 12000 dollar piece of crap and you would be better off trying to drive your totaled car.  Your other option is to hire a lawyer and find out about a place laying you off while on work comp and suing.


Do you think Thomas hit on something worthy of thought?\n\nWhat was / was not correct about his viewpoint?\n\nPlease be critical, and qualify your criticism through, well, um, reason.

It's a great book, one which inspired the American Revolution (repudiated the Divine right of kings to rule without consent of the governed).\n\nAlso, to do good with all one's wisdom and strength is the highest religion.  And the doctrine of a savior is unjust: no honest man can accept another's dying for him.\n\nThese were (and are) revolutionary concepts which helped change the history of our early republic.

During the season game between the Colts and Steelers the Steelers were beat 26-7. Big Ben injured his thumb early in the game, but played it out. The Steelers held the Colts to two touchdowns and 4 field goals (one at the end of the game), and they missed one. The Steelers did not get on their game plan of running the ball 35 times (in which they are something on the order of 100-2 if doing so) running the ball only 20 sometimes. Given injuries and a lack of a game plan do you think the Steelers could beat the Colts and if so does this mean the steelers will go to the Superbowl?

The Steelers are a scary team to be facing in the playoffs.  That being said, I think Indy is playing for Coach Dungy as much, if not more, as they are for themselves.  The emotion that the Colts will be playing with is the intangible that will put them over the top this weekend.


I am half American myself and most of my American relatives must either me brainwashed or just plain DUMB!

Oh, here is an original question.\n\nDo you honestly think that the President of the United States is an idiot?  He may not be the brightest person on the planet, but he is a damn site better than either of his opponents were/are.\n\nIt seems to me that the people who are so critical of the job he is doing should do something.  Offer a suggestion, talk to their elected representatives or better yet, run for office and see how well they do.\n\nI would venture a guess that the job isn't as easy as you think it is.  There are far more important issues at stake than what is on the surface.\n\nAnd calling the president an idot is the same as calling everyone who voted for him an idot. . . do you really want to go there?  It shows a lack of smarts on your part to suggest something like this.\n\nEurope and the rest of the world should stay out of US politics and concentrate on their own problems (and don't try to tell me that there aren't any.  I only need to point to France, Germany and a few others).


Mohs' hardness scale is somewhat arbitrary.  Moh tried to find commonly available minerals that were about equally spaced in hardness.  Talc was arbitrarily assigned "1."\n\nAs one example of the inconsistency, diamond (Moh's 10) is about 10 times harder than corundum (Moh's 9).\n\nThere should be some minerals sites out there that allow you to list minerals in order of Moh's hardness.  There may also be some with Vicker's hardness for comparison.\n\nThe main advantage of Moh's hardness scale is its practicality for field use.\n\nA lot of the sheet silicates are very soft.  In the soft ones, the only forces holding the sheets together are van der Waal's forces, which are quite weak.\n\nClays are very soft.  The crystals are very small and only van der Waals forces act between them.  (They are also sheet silicates, but the sheets are held tightly together by cations.)

does the expiration date on a vitamin bottle really matter? I have some that have been kept in a dry, cool place for a few months and they are nearing their expiration date. Should I be worried about taking them?

Both vitamins and medications should be thrown out if the expiration date is past.  Typically they lose potency, plus they sometimes can have a reverse type effect if consumed after expiration.


I'm terrible with remembering to do homework and such so I want to be able to remember things well.

I am in a long distance relationship, though we meet every 3-4 months.\nMy gf is too possessive about me and does not like me meeting any girl, even though she maybe my friend.\nAnd when I do, she throws a big fit...\nWHAT SHOULD I DO?\nI love her very much

Its a hard thing, long distance. One thing is that if your girlfriend loves you and you love her, then she should be willing to understand that there are people in your path that are female that you will have to deal with. If she cant understand that, then she doesnt love you enough to get over her fear. \n\nThe only way that it should be okay for you to meet other females is, business, a friend's girlfriend's friend is ok too if its just hi how are you and thats it. There will be many times where you will be put in front of a female and what does you girlfriend expect you to do? Bow your head and avoid eye contact? Even I wouldn't want that for my man. \n\nIf you are meeting this (other) girl socially, and she is attracted to you and makes you aware that she is attracted, then get the hell out of there. If it's just a female that is new to your group of friends and you meet her, but she is a regular girl that isnt flirting or attracted to you, its ok. \n\nI hope that being an adult you know the difference and can control yourself. But controlling yourself shouldn't be a problem cause you did say you loved your girlfriend. \n\nSo, to finish up, you need to remain a good man and she needs to step up as a grown woman and push her fear to the side so she doesnt badger you with it. Especially if you arent doing anything wrong.


Two sound waves with frequency 1960 Hz are traveling in air (v = 340 m/s). What should be the smallest path length difference (in meters) to make them interfere destructively?

To make them interfere destructively, they will have to be half a wavelength out of sync.\n\n\nSpeed = 340 m/s\nThat means in one second, the soundwave travels 340 meters.\n\nFrequency = 1960 Hz\nThat means in one second, 1960 cycles are produced.\n\n\nCombine those two facts, and you can calculate the wavelength.\n\nIn one second, there will be 1960 cycles in 340 meters. So wavelength = 340 meters / 1960 cycles.\n\nWavelength = 0.1734m\n\nHalf of wavelength = 0.0867m

I'm thinking of buying a "fede" ring. It's a kind of ring with a design of two hands clasped together. It looks a little bit like a claddagh ring. I've already looked at the first 20-odd results of searches for fede rings on Yahoo and Google. \n\nSo far, the one I like best is at http://www.vikingtrader.net/rings.html. It's a reproduction of a ring from the 16th c, found in the ground at Hotel Dania in Ålborg, Jutland and now in the medieval collection of the Danish National Museum in Copenhagen. Does anyone know where I can find a larger image of this ring? If you have ordered one of these rings from Viking Traders for yourself, do you have any close-up photos of it? If you live in Northern California, maybe I could meet you at an SCA event and actually see the ring in person...\n\nI'd also be interested in any other resources regarding fede rings, like books with good pictures or jewelers in California. I'm extra interested in fede ring designs from medieval northern Europe. Thanks!

Here are some books on medieval Europe:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=ur2&tag=richkahmerfin-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&path=external-search%3Fsearch-type=ss%26index=blended%26keyword=medieval%20ring%20europe

I have always been confused between the two.\nI am thinking in terms of business (could be a factory, or just any business delivering a product or service).

Productivity is based on how much is produced in a certain amount of time.\n\nEfficiency is based on materials spent in production. The lesser time, energy materials etc. used to produce the product is higher efficiency.


My children alway complain that I don;t understand them. They claim that I hv too high expectation on them but they choose to lead a carefree life without any pressure.

Ask them what they want you to know about them.  Be prepared to sit down and REALLY listen to them, without judging or interrupting.  If you show that you're serious, they may be surprisingly open with you.


They always comment on politics, they always tell us who they are going to vote for and campaign for them, but really, did anyone listen to Ashton Kutcher last election?

Some of them are.  Some of them really are genuinely concerned with the state of this nation.  They're the ones out at the campaign headquarters stuffing envelopes.  Not the ones you hear about all the time in the news.

I have really good opions on some topics but no one takes the time to listen to me! How can I make them listen

If a tree falls in the forest when nobody is there, . . . does it make any noise? This is a complicated question, that seems simple. It makes a sound, which may or not be noise. Noise is sound that is unorganized, it requiers the presence of someone to make that determination. The same thing holds true for you, when you have somthing to say. In order to get someone to listen to you, someone has to be there listening. While you can't make anybody take the time to listen, there are things that will better your efforts at being heard. When a comic gets up to tell jokes, not everyone laughs. At times everybody laughs, and then there is the joke that dosen't get any response at all. You can take a few lessons from the comic. No, not about telling jokes, but rather about delivery. He has managed to speak to a wide audience. When you speak to large groups, your words will find some willing ears.\nMatt.


I want to allow clients to upload to my server. The app needs to be really really simple like the Flickr Uploadr. Client would install the app. Open it, enter username and password then just drag and drop files onto the app. Easy. Feedback on upload progress would be good.\n\nTraditional FTP apps like CuteFTP are no good. It needs to be a no brainer. Even my Mum can use the Flickr Uploader!\n\nI'd also prefer if it was not .NET dependant.\n\nThanks.

You can use explorer to do this job if you are using Windows 2K or XP.  The only disadvantage is that it is slower to other programs such as cuteftp.  \n\nAll you need to do is to open My Network Places.  \nClick on Add Network Place. .. next\nChoose "another network location ...."  ..next\nEnter the ftp server address starting with ftp://  ..next.\nEnter Log on details.\nand enter the name of the network place to be displayed.\n\nThese settings are only set once.  When you need to connect to the ftp server. go to My network place\nand double click on the icon of the server.  When prompted enter a password. \nTo upload files drop and drag.\nTo delete select and press delete.

Why do they play mind games if they don't want to be with the woman?  Why do they continue to play with women's hearts?

its not the group of "men" that cheat. its the inconsiderate and egotistical men that couldnt care less about anyone but themselves. Even though im a guy its easy to say. id never cheat on my girl but i know a few "men" that would and i know thier type. personally, i think that every man and woman is faced with at least one instance in thier life were it would be extremely easy and convenient to cheat on thier partners, they just have to resist. dont worry, youll find that special one that makes you happy inside and out one day.


I have a 18 month old, and would like to know when would be a good time to bring her in to see the dentist.

Children should visit a dentist for the first time within 6 months of the eruption of the first primary tooth, and no later than age 12 months. The goals of the visit are to assess risk for tooth decay, provide anticipatory guidance, respond to questions parents may have about oral health and development, initiate prevention practices, and schedule the next visit. During a child’s early visits to the dentist, the dentist and dental hygienist can also assess tooth and jaw development and check for problems. By taking their child to the dentist early, parents learn how to care for their child’s teeth. Children, in turn, learn the importance of good oral health care and view visiting the dentist as a positive experience.


I mean, are they for real? I've been receiving emails from this site called ProductTestPanel.com since a while ago. They say that they're gonna send me a SONY VAIO Laptop for free, they just want me to try it and fill some kind of survey. Are these kind of sites reliable? Are they going to actually send me a laptop or do they just want my address and stuff??

Its all spam and they just want your attention about their products. Just mark them as spam and delete them...!


I'll give 10 points to whoever gets it right....good luck!

After inspecting my underwear, I found some winnetts that needed disposing of.
