Just reply to this question, i wanna get as many replys as possible! thanx

Okay.  Thanks for the small ladder on my way to Level 7 ;)


how universal is public administration discuss

Public Administration is practiced in governments around the world and in Non Governmental Organizations (NGO's)--like the UN, etc. So, to answer your question, it is universal.


He is failing in almost every subject and just doesn't seem to care. He believes he will eventually be a singer and won't need an education.  How can I show him this is wrong thinking?

i know what ur son is going through because i was in that stage sometime before. why dont you try to get him something fun but invilves studies. try to make stucying fun for him first. or try to make him understand the drawbacks of becoming a singer. ask if what would he do if he fails to become a singer? could he start his life all over? tell him if that happens he would probably land up in the streets.but if all else fails then let him continue to sing. if that is his dream im sure he would make it come true and be sucessful in life


The last chapter of my introductory physics book was a purposefully broad overview of challenges/questions in modern physics designed to peak students' interest in the subject and encourage future studies in physics and science in general.  Anyway, they mentioned something about the 'Galaxy Rotation Problem' and explained that "some scientists believe that a mysterious gravitational anamoly called the Great Attractor may be the cause..."  But, again being purposefully vague, they didnt' go into any more details.  So, the book succeeded and my interest is peaked; what is the Great Attractor?

Interesting. I vaguely remember a "great attractor" from chaos theory, but what I find when I look it up now is that it refers to a cluster of galaxies, "in the direction of Centaurus and Hydra" where nobody is sure why they're grouped like that.\n\nHere's a direct quote from another source though which I think directly addresses what you're asking about: The galaxy rotational problem refers to the phenomenon of the descrepency between the observed rotational motion of the matter of the galactic disc from the predictions of Newtonian dynamics. (See links below and search for "12.25.I".)\n\nI think in layman's terms what they're boggling about is the "bar" shape that occurs in most galaxies, our own apparently included. A recent issue of Scientific American had a very good theory on how that occurs and why.\n\nIf I'm getting the gist of it right, they're not sure why clusters of stars occur in a semi-pinwheel pattern, since based on observed mass there simply isn't enough to cause such a structure to form or remain stable.  The theory in SciAm had something to do with a coincidence of travelling wave patterns rather than any deep dark mysteries of physics, filiments, or anything else.\n\nSee http://www.sciam.com/, October 2005 issue, p. 43, "Ripples in a Galactic Pond." Very nice article and they explained it more clearly than anything I could put together.


This is a little math problem I came up with. I have my own answer, I just want to see what everyone else thinks.

Well, I don't really understand you. This is the best I could.\n\nI think it is true. For example, the cube root of -8, which is x, is -2, which is y. y^3 is -8, which is x. So, yes, I think it's true.


What age is the best to start dating? I heard that different dating ages will turn you into a different person. I don't know what's the best age that a person should start dating other people. Do you have any input that can help? =D Cheers.

Depends on the person.I would think 15 or 16 is old enough. Hopefully by that age, one would make responsible choices.


...and what is supposed to happen this June 6th\nie 6.6.6

Oh this one is easy haha. It is according to the book of revelation. It is not the devils number or any of that sort, but actually reference to Emperor Nero. Emperor Nero is the beast mentioned in Revelations. Revelation was written by John of Pathmos (there was more than one John) and it pertained to the time that it was written. It is not to be applied to current times. In the Hebrew form of Gematria 666 Spells out NRON KSR (Nero Kaisar or Nero Caesar)\n\nN=50 R=200 O=6 N=50 K=100 S=60 R=200 = 666\n\nBook of Revelation was written before the collapse of the 2nd Temple in 70 A.D. It was a call for a New Jerusalem. Babylon refers to Rome and the Beast refers to the Emperor.\n\nIt was Evil for Christians, why? Who do you think Nero happened to blame after the fire in Rome? Hehehe. And who do you think had to suffer and be persecuted? The Christians! So obviously, Christians would find this number evil, because it hints a very evil figure. Infact Nero used to use Christians as Garden Lamps in his Gardens (Where the Vatican now stands). He literally lit them on fire! Alive! Thousands of them. They could not openly write any of this because of obvious reasons. Christianity wasnt legalized till 313 AD (Edict of Milan) by Constantine. So anything Christian before that was illegal and you were subject to persecution if you were Christian. So whatever was written before this time was written in secret and using secret allergories and language (like the Hebrew Gematria) so that others would not understand. It was tough being a Christian back then :-p. Revelations was probably written around 68-69 A.D., right before the collapse of the Second Temple in 70. \n\n\nNothings Gonna Happen on June 6th. The sun will rise and it will set. And we'll all be happy. Who knows you might even get a raise at work :-D

"Oil is much too important a commodity to be left in the hands of the Arabs.--- Henry Kissinger, US Secretary of State under Presidents Nixon & Ford

Society and the economy demand a steady supply of oil.  I know on no one who has pulled the main circuit breaker of their home or thrown away the keys to their car(s), especially gas guzzlers whether they are liberal or conservative.  It is our problem.  Whoever owns the oil should profit by its sale, but oil need not become a geopolitical football.\n\nThe real question is whether oil will be used to fuel the world or to fuel terrorism.  The fuel problem is only temporary.  We need to capture perhaps 1% of 1% of the sun's solar energy to meet all our needs.  Technology is rapidly improving.  Soon there will be available relatively cheap plastic foil photovoltaic cells to convert solar energy to electrical energy.  The technology already exists.  The roofs of most buildings will be covered with them.  Then we will still need a little oil to lubricate our bikes and hedge clippers.  The problem is to obtain and maintain world peace until then.  And that may be a decade or two.


sex is like the best, but only with your bf.  \nbut fooling around is ok if you dont really know the guy. i guess


a source couls be  a complete tutorial or a free to download ebook :$ ....thanks in advance

Here's a list of sites i've used that have been a great help for me in completing many C# projects.\nBy far thecodeproject is the best source of examples.\n\nI should also mention, that if you have a full copy of Visual Studio, the help files and MSDN library that comes with it is a good source as well.


Can I have one 256MB PC2700 DDR memory card and one, 1gb PC2700 DDR memory chip (1.256GB total) in my laptop or do the both have to be the same MB? (as in 1-1GB and 1-1gb?)

Yes of course!  You can install different RAM modules for as long as the have the same model (or speed or timing) to be safe always use the same brand - for example you can use varying capacities of PC2700 DDR and have them installed on your machine.  Your system will simply add them up together...


I've heard that men are capable of lactation or producing milk. is this possible? How?

Yes Male lactation is possible because men also have mammary glands. given the right hormones, these glands activate, and the person may lactate.\n\nThis is more common in men undergoing hormonal treatments (such as for prostate cancer), because female hormones are used to retard the cancer.


Like if a child was molusted from age 3-11 by a sister who was only 2 or 3 years older than them and is still underage.  \nOr would the state charge them anyways even if the abuser is still underage?  \nWould they be charged as an adult then?\nWould they abusee be taken away if they are in the same household?

The law varies from state to state on how the case would be tried and so forth, but someone does not need to press charges in any felony (which it may actually not be in your state). It is the state's duty to try anyone accused of a felony, if they believe they can get a conviction. They probably would not proceed if the victim was not willing to testify, however, because it would be difficult to convict. The accused would definitely not be allowed to live in the same house as the person, but they would probably be taken into custody, not the victim taken out of the home, unless the parents were aware of the abuse, in which case they could be charged as well and the victim would probably be placed in state custody. I can get a little more information if you tell us which state it is in.

some of the studenst are starting a rugby scrimmage night at our school but nobody knows all of the rules, so if you can give me some of the basics that would be great

Good for you...I think rugby is the greatest sport and love watching it (Go ALL BLACKS!!!)!  There are A LOT of rules from the IRB...here is a brief list for you...then some sites where you can get more detailed info.\n\n   1.  As you notice, there are no shoulder pads or crash helmets in rugby.\n   2. The ball must be pitched backwards to your teammates. No Forward passes like John Elway.\n      A team can pitch the ball back and forth to each other as many times as they wish.\n   3. THERE IS NO BLOCKING to assist your runner.\n   4. Everyone runs with the ball and tackles equally. Unlike American Grid-Iron Football where 2 or 3 guys get all the glory and the rest of the team is never given the opportunity to prove themselves and run for a score, every player on the rugby field will run with the ball and tackle over 20 times a game. If you were an offensive lineman and never ran the ball and never tackled this game is for you! Everyone will be a running back and linebacker. When a set dead-ball scrum is formed, that is when the team will get in their SET POSITIONS, but shortly after that when mass chaos breaks out, all players will run and tackle with the ball.\n   5. When you are tackled you have 1 second to let go of the ball and purposely “fumble” the ball. Don’t touch it again until you are up from the pile and standing on your two feet again.\n   6. When you TACKLE someone, you can’t pick up the fumbled ball until you are ON YOUR FEET. This is one of the most called penalties on new players. You must be standing up to pick up the ball. You cannot dive on a loose ball.\n   7. When you are on defense, and a tackled player is put to the ground, you must make sure you are on YOUR SIDE OF THE “scrumage line” BEFORE you engage in any physical contact with the other team. This is called offside and is one of the most called penalties for all levels of players. This happens when a defensive player is chasing down a runner from behind. The defensive player must run around the ruck pile and enter from the other side to give contact on the ruck pile. This is a very big yardage penalty if you get caught not being on sides on a loose ruck pile.\n   8. The game will have 15 players from each team taking the field\n   9. When you teammate pitches the ball to you as you are running down the field, and you accidentally drop the ball. THAT IS A PENALTY, it is called a “Knock On”. The other team will get the ball automatically right there for their possession. As you can see, this is the kiss of death when you drop or “Knock On” the ball deep in your own territory by their scoring end zone. This is why we run so many ball-handling drills in practice, to cut down on these penalties.\n  10. There are no “Downs” in rugby like football. An offensive team may have the ball for 20 “phases” or “downs” in a row, if they can keep winning the ruck pile and push over the tackled player to win the ball and regain possession. It is very important to always be in “support” and chasing after your ball carrier at all times. When your offensive player is tackled and there is 4 offensive players running right behind the ball carrier, they should no doubt be able to push over the 2 or 3 defensive players that are at the tackle area or the “ruck pile”. On the other side of the coin, if no offensive players are in support and the ball carrier is tackled, the defense will simply just step over the ball and the ball carrier, to pick up the loose ball. The offensive player must “REALEASE” the ball in 1 second. The Defensive team will just pick it up and run the other way if no offensive support is right there. It is VERY IMPORTANT TO BE IN SUPPORT AND HAVE 4 PLAYERS RIGHT BEHIND A BALL CARRIER. (1)You will be there for a pitch-pass. (2) You are there for a ruck over to win the ball.\n\nhttp://www.scrum.com/rugby_guide/\nhttp://www.irb.com/Laws/\nhttp://wildcat.wsc.edu/clubs/rugby/rules/\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sportacade

My husband says he loves me but never wants to be with me. When he comes home from work all he does is sleep. When I try to talk to him or just want company, he gets MAD and tells me to go to bed. Never mind it's only 6:oopm.\nI am having a hard time beliving he loves me and feel like I should leave him. \nWe have been married a little over 2 years and dated for 4 years (without living together)before we married (all was well then).\nHe is 53 and I am 45.\nI can't remember the last time we were intimate.\nI spent the whole day New Years day alone and crying.\nHe said I needed to "talk to someone" about being so lonely.That I have a problem cause no one should feel lonely if they are married. \nBut when I ask if he really wants and loves me he says yes.He also says I should adapt and accept his way and that he should not have to work at a relationship.\nWhere am I going wrong? I thought couples enjoyed time and togetherness. \nWe did for 4 years before.

I felt the same way alot! This may seem strange to say but maybe he should have his testosterone level checked. That is the age it gets low and my husband had those symptoms and that's what it was. Also, what do you need to talk about. I needed to talk about how to fix problems and my husband took unpleasant issues that we needed to discuss as wanting to start an arguement. Also men don't need the connection quite as much as women do I think. It is so hard to live with. There are so many women that are going through the same thing. Maybe there should be e-harmany for women who need to get connected with other woman in the same situations so they can go out, have fun and complain about their husbands. A support group or something. Just leave him on the couch and maybe take some classes and do fun things for yourself before you think there is something wrong with you. It is him not you. He should see a doctor to rule out a medical condition. He may also be suffering from depression. Have you sat him down and in a nice, loving way tell him your concerned about him and NEED his imput? Write him a letter of how you feel if he finds it hard to sit and listen to converstation. Good luck! My husband got treated for low testosterone and depression and it got a whole lot better. If he refuses to even try, leave. There is no point in being unhappy. Life is too short. Live life either way. Alone but married, or alone and not married but open to finding someone else and hope you find someone else. Some people tend to relax and not try to please the other person after awhile also.


My boyfriends is thin and he looks really good in my flares. I want to find like men's tight flares / cordoroy color flares. Rock star style, he is so sexy!!!

This question has bothered me for half a century.  Clearly, the Hebrews were told to keep the Sabbath and most do from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday.  Jesus either kept the Sabbath himself or expected at least some of his followers to keep it from verses like Matthew 24:20.\nMany Christians today claim that the Sabbath is from  Midnight to just before the following Midnight on Sunday.  Where in scripture did this change occur?

It didn't change. The Sabbath is still from the evening on Friday to the evening on Saturday. Christians chose to observe the Sabbath on the first day of the week in conjunction with the day of the Resurrection I hear, but I've never seen that in scripture. What I see in scripture is that when Christ was crucified, the Mosiac Law was crucified with Him. As He is seated at the right hand of the Father, making intercession, we can come before the Throne of Grace anytime we need to. We don't need to go to the synagogue on any certain day, but I think it is important to remember what the Sabbath means: the day of Rest after six of work. And worship should be somthing we do often, not just on Sunday.\n\nBy the way, I am a non-Jewish Christian. I attend church usually on Sunday.


Anyone know how much an annual membership costs?

They range from $2,000-$5,000 per year, depending on type of membership


We have the best secretary in the world and I was wondering what is the best way to show her how much she means to all of us

If you really appreciate her, start by taking a genuine interest in her goals.  Does she want to be a secretary forever?  This isn't a lifelong goal for everyone.  Maybe she wants to do something else.  Find out from her and see if there's anything you can do to help her get where she wants to be.  In other words, maybe become a mentor for her.\n\nIf she establishes with you that she's a career secretary and is happy where she is, find out about her interests outside of work (i.e. hobbies, pets, children, etc.) and give her a personalized and appropriate gift.\n\nAlways remember when giving gifts that it really is the thought behind it that counts.  Hope this helps.


if you cant tell your parents(i honestly DONT trust them) or ur sis. (believe me she is a gossip queen) then who?

I think you should confide in a diary or journal or something like some previous answer told you to do. It really lifts the weight off your shoulders once you've written your feelings down. I mean, unless you dont keep your memories written down, then you should tell your 2nd best friend/a close friend who doesnt have any idea who your best friend is, so that the person you tell doesnt tell your best friend and screw up your friendship. Just like what some other person said. Or, if you do have a trusting friendship that'll be sure to last for a kachillion years (again, an idea from another answer), then you might just be able to tell your friend. That's why they call them best friends forever right? Nothing'll come between them

I have known her since birth. When I went into middle school I got seriously depressed and I felt like I was not good enough for anyone. I remember when we used to be together and how fun it was. But I let her slip away from me. I recently reconnected with her but found out that she has a boyfriend. I like her new boyfriend he's really nice. But I wish it was me. Do you think there is any chance that I'll ever be able to be with this girl again? She and her boyfriend are madly in love though. What do I do? I think that I should give up and move on... but it is hard because I feel so much for her. How do I just let go? Is it okay to keep Hope alive that we might be together again someday?

aww how seet you sound like you have a good heart, but if she has a boyfriend then i'm sorry to say but u probably need to let her go, i know it hurts now and it will hurt for a while, but u never know they might have a problem and decide to break up, but for right now it doesn't look like it's going to happen u have a life to live live it to the fullest each day and u and her could be friends.. if u can't have her as a girlfriend u  can atleast have her as a good friend.. other girls will be out there, they may not be like her but i know they will like u and learn to love the person u are...

Talk to a lawyer about filing a bankruptcy to stop the foreclosure. That will likely only be a temporary fix, but after that you should probably consider selling unless you expect future income to cover the payments. Good luck.

Finding website info?\n\nIs there a way to find website info like last updated how meny hits how long been on web etc. even if its a download just anything

I believe you can right click on it and select properties.  It gives a "created" date (that I don't believe is accurate -- just tried that with a website I administer) and a "last modified" date (which was accurate on that one).

You know that woman who stole Charles away from Diana.\n\nWhy, or why not?

Actually I don't have any preference for her hor dilike, I do believe that if she makes him ahppy all the more power to her.\n\nIf you look at history of Prince Charles' relationships, you will see Camilla Parker Bowles was in Prince Charles' life before Diana.  He was forced to marry Diana because she was proper, had proper breeding and would best fit the role of his wife.\n\nI dont think it is fair to make judegments about someone you don't know.


i am using the mac filteration with my internet centre for the remote accounts and the hacker dont leave me alon, if i use the web key with the mac filteration to increas the security fot the net is that effect to the internet service, i mean is the account sence bad connection with the internet ?

MAC Filtering is a waste of time if a hacker really wants access to your Wireless LAN.  Any legitmate client's MAC can easily be found and the hacker can then use that MAC as his own, he now has access.\n\nIf you meant WEP key (not WEB), yes, this will increase your security with NO impact to performance or bandwidth.\n\nPlease not the a WEP Key is easily crackable as well, it can be done in 5 minutes.\n\nIf Security is your concern (keep the hackers out), you should use a more stringent form of security such as WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key).  Your legitmate clients will only need to know what the Pre-Shared Key is.

Safety deposit box rental costs will very from bank to bank and depending on the size. You are charged annually for the rent on the box, however some banks will prorate it if you close it early.

Hired a care thru an internet broker company and took out insurance against excess charge in case of damage.

I know it's a little late but I was just wondering what everyone thought about the "discussion" between the two of them.  \nI am completely conflicted.  I am an Army wife but totally disgusted with Cindy Sheehan. I m so so very sorry for her loss but that is not the way to get closure. Just wondered what everyone thought?

I honestly thought that Letterman looked like an idiot.  He obviously did not want him on the show and worst of all he voiced an opinion and then admitted that he had no idea what he was talking about.\n\nYou're not conflicted.  You feel the way almost everyone else does.  I am sad for her loss but I'm disgusted at how she's using it.  Her HUSBAND divorced her over it (or at least that was the last straw).\n\nBTW -- thanks for what you're doing for us all (being in the army).


I've been a security guard or worked in security (watching cameras and alarms) since the end of July last year. I had just graduated High School a few months prior and decided to take some time off. Now I'm sick of the night shift on the weekends and I want out. I'm going to college this fall and I want to be able to find a job as high paying as the one now.

I think you should go work for a construction or landscaping crew..  No nights and probably no weekends... plus, you usually get paid a decent wage.


what explanation will you give Him for not believing when you were alive? This is a serious question !

Well-if you die as an unbeliever you will not go to heaven. The Bible says you cannot accept him at the last minute just so you can go to heaven. If you truley and i mmean truley accept him then you will go to heaven when death reaches you. BUT the Bible does say it doesnt count if you accept him at the last minute JUST so you can go to heaven. If you truley believe in him than he will see that you have come to know him and you will go to heaven-if yu TRULEY believe.

i think i have chicken pox.i have been itchie and i feel so bad.

Chicken pox is easy to recognize, because you have red spots. You can have it twice. I would go see the doctor...


I just had a dream.  I was told I was going to some place in Egypt ....I saw the map and saw the location- a small place on the edge of the water of Suez.  When I woke up, I looked at several maps of Egypt but only  found one old map that had any name for the place I saw in my dream...The map was very tiny and I could barely read the letters..it looked like  "ayn suklmah" . The closest city I could find on the internet was "ayn sukhna"  Do you know anything about this place? Do I have the name correct? DOes it still exist? I do not know any arabic....I hope whatever I wrote is nothing bad by accident.  I just could not read the tiny letters....I have never been to egypt.....I wonder what it means...no , I did not have pizza for dinner.... I wonder what going to this place in a dream might mean in reality....

I know some Arabic, Ayn means eye or water spring and some other meanings but it doesn't have any bad meaning, also sukhna must be a name.\nPersonally I recommend you to go to Egypt in a holiday, you must know that it is a really beautiful country with famous historical things and it's quiet safe.\nMaybe it's a sign for you and there is a gift for you there. If I were you I would go there.


Some of the best colleges include the ROSS school( university of michigan; my best choice), \ndoes it count alot, if i dont have a very high GPA ?

My classmates (internationals) average a lot higher (like 40 - 50 points) than my US classmates. So it really depends on your nationality to get in. \n\nI went to a top 10 school and my international classmates range from 720 - 800.

I asked a question about football and why as a female the coach will not let me play and a lot of people said that girls can not play football but i think that is bs (bull shit) does any one agree????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????


Is it true that it is proper etiquette to gently expel the unwanted contents of one's mouth onto one's fork at the dinner table?

Miss Manners says that it comes out the way it went in; so, if you put the cherry/fish/olive/whatever into your mouth with your fingers, take the pit/bone/pit/whatever out with your fingers, and if you put it in with a fork, take it out with a fork.\n\nWhen in doubt, if you are a guest, wait until your host/ess does it and emulate.


Make sure to take everything into account!

ok...I think that kobes 81 is a better accomplishment. In wilts day he was the only person that was like 7 feet tall, there was no 3 seconds and no shot clock. Those are all factors. In the era that we are in right now there are factors like 24 seconds to shoot the ball and u can't stay in the lane for more than 3 seconds, and kobe is no where near 7 feet tall and back in wilts day he was 8 feet tall. Kobes 81 is a bigger accomplishment in my book


I was debating with a friend the other day and she told me that if a woman loses her virginity and then doesn't have sex for so long her hymen will gorw back and i was just wondering if theres any truth to this...


i asked her if u dont like me dont talk 2 me.\nbut she refused my love n talking 2 me as a frnd.\n\n      am not getting her.\n        all guls will b like thz only i think so.

you can test whether she loves you or not this way:\nTake her to a hotel, and order something (ask the bearer to delay ;) ) Do this before the Valentines Day. Open ur heart and express your deep feeling as much as u can. Then ask her to tell final decision. I suppose that it will be a FOR. Do tell whether ur love is success. :)


i loved the first two so i cant wait for more!

I didn't even know there was going to be a third!! That's awsome!!!I hope it's as good as the first two!!

Im Doing A Review For My English Exam And I Have Completely Blanked Out Here Thanks For They Replys! :D

I agree with "CURIOSITY" 100%.  The only other considerations might be to make sure that the answer you give, is relevant to the question asked.\n\nTerms such as "examine", "discuss", "compare" "contrast" and many others all have different meanings.\n\nFirst "understand" what is being asked of you, then follow "curiosity's" outline.\n\nAlways make thorough reference in the body of the work, to intentions stated in the introduction, and always draw upon all your points in the conclusion.


The Broncos are solid.  They're 13-3 for a reason.  They'll have a good challenge from New England, and might have trouble getting past Indy.  If they can make the Super Bowl, however, I think they have to be heavy favorites.  They have maybe the best running game in the NFL, Jake Plummer is a vastly improved passer, and they have playmakers on defense.  So, yes, I believe the Broncos can win the Super Bowl.


I think she sucks. There's no point trying to be Madonna if u don't have her talents, right?

I agree with you. It's amazing who they give a singing contract too. The only thing that's getting her where she is her body and how she likes to flaunt it. Plus she is doing the most stupid things like marrying a dead beat.


Need Texas divorce info on a dealing with a spouse who will not sign the divorce papers she received. Has made verbally all kinds of demand on what they want before they sign and already has everything, even the h ouse and land. I want a divorce. Have an attorney already paid, oh boy, need free advice or research material.

You just need to have a county sherriff serve her.  You should be able to contact the court, and ask the judge to issue a court order mandating that she sign the papers.


I live in the Philippines and we probably don't have the brands of guitars that you have in the states but i really want to know what to look for when buying a guitar. The structure, the neck, anything... please describe, i'm a beginner and i really really like to learn to play

Always play before you buy (if you can't play ask the shop assistant to demonstrate), if it sounds good check the sturdiness of the neck and  test for comfort of play (some lesser branded guitars have unusually large shaped bodies and too wide/narrow necks), but most importantly - only buy the guitar that feels like your guitar the moment you pick it up.


i was with a job for 8 yrs. got hurt on the job,so they fire me a lawyer won't sue for me ,why?

I think most states are "at will". Which means the employer doesn't need a reason to fire anyone. They just say, "it's not working out, I have to let you go."  It's very difficult for an attorney to fight for you. Unless you can prove with hard, hard evidence that you abused in some way. File for unemployment and see what happens because if you were fired, they have to pay you or fight it. If they fight it you'll find out why they really fired you. Most employees pay it, unless you were at fault.  Everything happens for a reason. You'll find something better that will make you question why you ever stayed there 8 years! Much Luck to you!


Like say whenever parents or guardians don't let their children or whatever go anywhere would that make the child do anything he or she wouldn't usually do?

As a parent of a teenager who says I'm too strict, I can say that it's very hard to strike a balance between keeping your child safe and allowing them to develop the independence they will need when they go into the world on their own.  \n\nAs a former teenager whose parents were even more strict than I am, I can say that overbearing parents can have their good intentions backfire as the child may rebel.\n\nThe parent and child need to discuss the issues at hand, which will depend on the activity the child wants to go do.  The parent has to be honest about the concerns that come up, and the child has to explain to the parent how they will handle the situations that concern the parent.  The child will have to prove to the parent that they are capable of handling themselves independently in order to ease the parent's mind.  \n\nIn my case, I have learned to trust that I have raised my child well thus far, and provided the foundation that will allow my teenager not to give in to peer pressure and to consider the potential consequences to any actions that might be considered.


I have a friend who has smoked cat nip (yeah weird)\ndo people actually do this and if so why?

Yes it has been done before. People do it for a high. They like to kill thier brain cells I guess.\nSmoking catnip can produce a euphoria and visual hallucinations thought to be caused by the nepetalactone content. Catnip, in combination with Eugenia caryophyllata, and Sassafras albidum, has been used as poultice for aching teeth in the American Ozark Mountains.


Or do you just love to challenge athority? Is it just because your not a republican? Have you disliked all war time presidents?

George Bush could bring world peace to the world and some people would still hate him.  i guess just because they are haters. since Bush has been president:\nUnemployement is lowest in 5 years\nEconomy is booming\nWe have lower taxes\nMore money given to the poor\nWe are safer than before\nSounds like a good president to me.


i can only find info on kids and it doesn't give much

Only professional Ear Nose Throat (ENT) specialist can tell you. Don't make decision yourself untill you are an ENT. Beleive me they know their stuff better than anyone else. This is not a decision that one can make by reading medical books or other literature, or rely on advice of non-specialist.


The show was called The mark Walhberg show.

Mark Walhberg??  MARKEY MARK AND THE FUNKY BUNCH Mark Walhberg?!  Reason I ask is that you must be from Massachusetts!  The whole Wahlberg family used to live in Savin Hill and threw all these loud parties.  When a neighbor knocked on Mark's door to complain of the noise, he shot back "do you know who I am?!" to which the neighbor replied "yes, you are an obnoxious little homeboy who seems to think the world revolves around him!"  Then the fire hydrant in front of his house went off!  What a mess!!!  This was in the early 90's.  In answer to your question (got off the subject a bit, sorry).....call up the studio where the show was filmed.  They always have copies of the tapes.  Might cost a few bucks but hey, what the heck?  Its worth it.  \nNow, one last thing.......please, please, PLEASE lose that picture!!!!!!!!!!  It is disgusting!  What about the "community guidelines"???  Gross!


Ok my boyfriend is starting to come around and be really sweet, but this lawyer I met is just as nice and doesn't have some of my boyfriends flaws that I hate.\nShould I give my boyfriend another chance?\nShould I give the lawyer a chance?\n\nI've already been honest with my boyfriend and told him about the lawyers intrest, though I haven't told him that we've been casually emailing eachother as friends yikes!

Sounds to me like your not quite ready to settle down.  I say drop the boyfriend for now and date around a bit and then maybe you will be able to know more about what your looking for.  Everyone has flaws but usually you can't see them till you've known them a while.


preparing food or having it catered is time consuming enough once you take care of that and the invitations and you place to rent just go to a party store and let them give you some surprise ideas like belly dancers etc.


Well i hooked up this thand with UGLY photos of hillary duff cuz i HATE HER


I don't think so. I imagine she has been doing some feelers through the republican base, and I doubt she got a positive signal. Without base support she won't make it out of the primaries.


I want to get a degree in criminal justice, and I was hoping my ten years in law enforcement would equal a large part of the degree. I have also attended several advanced academies and training seminars.

You'd probably be best off to find a college you're interested in and talk to their academic counselors about this. They might give you credit that would count towards your degree but not fulfill any requirements; it would prevent you from having to take extra electives classes but not get you out of any classes relating to the CJ major.


Remember, these movies are probably not the best movies that you have ever seen, but movies that are the most watchable - over and over. \n\nFor example, I would not include a movie such as Shindler's list, but would include a movie such as Top Gun (which I could watch for ever and ever)... Let's hear your fave's ...

Tommy Boy\nNight at the Roxbury\nRounders\nIndiana Jones...Temple of Doom\nLethal Weapon 4


I used to work with a Muslim from Ghana who tried to tell me that a pig saved Mohammed's life and because of that, they vowed never to kill or eat a pig! No offense, but that sounds like BS to me.

The story of the pig and Muhammad is nonsensical and lame.\n\nPigs are glutton. They eat everything. Is everything clean? Pigs are the most withstandable animal against bacteria and virus. Quite like walking vessels of bacteria.\n\nPigs are the sources of some terrible diseases like J.E. and avian flu (if not mistaken).\n\nSome may say that pigs are tasty. It is true based on the saying "Not all good things are sweet and not all bad things are bitter". \n\nNo matter what technique scientists do to make pigs safely edible, they will not accomplish that because zillions generations of pigs have lived and practised the glutton eating habits and made them super dangerous to consume and to have contact with them. \n\nPigs do breed super-fast. Even an offspring can give out birth just after two months (if not mistaken).  \n\nGod forbids men to eat pigs because of the above statements and maybe more to discovered. God knows best. However, we can eat pigs if there is no other choice of food or during very, very difficult times.

When kids are training in gymnastics for the olympics how many hours a week do you think they should go if they are 13? I know someone who is 13 and she is training for the olympics nad she goes 25 hors a week? Do you think that is bad? I wish I could go that much but then again sometimes it could get boring? So also would you be willing to give up your life for it?

I was a gymnast in high school, college and in master's meets after college.  During the summer in college, I would often train 3 times a day (up to 12 hours a day) because I just loved doing it.  As long as it is fun, I don't see a problem.  It is a problem only if it were an obsessive compulsion.  It wasn't a compulsion for me, it was (is) just plain fun.  25 hours a week for a 13 year old with Olympic or World Championship aspirations is pretty normal, but it should still be fun.  I've coached girls that age who made national teams.  I tried to make sure it was always fun for them, even with the hard work.  Gymnastics and boring are contradictions!!


First, a missions trip is when you go to a different country, state, or city and spread the good news of Jesus Christ.  Would you be willing to leave the country to go into Germany, Africa, Asia, ect to spread the word???

Yes, if that is where I am called by my Lord. I am from Seattle, but he called me to Costa Rica, where I am now. He has my husband and me here on a six-month sabbatical so that we can learn more about the deeper Christian life. He has chosen an old Christian sage as one of our professors – Andrew Murray who wrote more than 240 books about 100 years ago; and Henri Nouwen who died about 10 years ago, but was also amazing.\n\nIf He calls us to go any where, we will be there . . .

As nothing migrates from one person to another after dying,its difficult to understand rebirth. Buddhism states that after being enlightened(Nirwana) the person is freed form rebirth.

I am thinking about keeping my Venezuelan citizenship only if I can  keep only one.And also moving there,Chile, or possibly Mexico.

There is no such thing as Dual-citizenship in America. Some countries will recognize a dual-citizenship, though. If you want to be an American, you cannot serve in another country's military, hold an elected position or vote in another country's elections. You can renounce your US citizenship at a US Consulate and surrender your passport, if you want to become a full Venezuelan Citizen.

Helping a friend getting his company ready for a trade show. They're trying to think of things to put their logo on and give away. \n\nWe're trying to think beyond coozies and lame stuff like that. I thought I would ask here to see if anyone has some ideas that they have used or have seen other people use.

I live in Vegas and model at trade shows, so I have a weird collection of promotional items that are given away. This year at SEMA, Mopar gave away pilsner glasses and they had some pretty girls manning the kegs and handing them out. XM gave away really nice pens. A food company I worked for did a drawing and give away of nice items (golf bags, clocks, towels, umbrellas) every so often during the day and kept a steady crowd in their booth. Best one so far was a company that gave away their t-shirts and had us scan the crowd for people wearing the shirt and awarded a cash prize to people seen wearing it at the convention. It only took a second for the crowd to find out money was being given away and people were rushing to our booth. Good Luck

You won't be able to stop homelessness. More and more people are losing their jobs, the cost of living is getting more expensive. If you know any homeless people, you can get them to shelters for those people. Send then to a YMCA. I knew a homeless person once and an organization helped him to apply for Social Security disability. He won and got some backpay and he bought himself a small travel trailer. Had all he needed for a cheap price and his small check pays for the spot at the trailer park.


I rinsed my contact with UltraCare® Disinfecting Solution by mistake instead of a saline solution.\nI took out the contact as fast as I could and now my eye has swollen up, is red and burns. I have flushed with bottled water, but is there anything else I can do. Everything is closed because of the holiday.

you should flushed you eye out immediately for at least 10 min with real cold water!! Since it is swollen you need to go to the ER for them to treat it.


not formulas, the actual information that one obtains from a star.

The only company in America was D.Cheney's Haliburton.  He was Sec. of War under Bushdaddy,then headed up Haliburton (the only company who was "custom ready" to provide for the invasion of Iraq. After he got in the whitehouse his old company goes into Iraq.  Am I the only one to see the "coincidence" here.  Looks awful.

Everbody suspects it, of course, but probably damfew could prove it, and a weak House, in bringing up charges of impeachment against the Evil Cheney cannot count on a Republican senate to toss Cheney out. (Same goes for Bush.)


i am almost flat chested and i want a fuller bust. my flat chest embarases me i wear heavilly padded bras but i need something more natural.

There are only 2 ways I know of to get larger breasts safely.\n\nOne is to get pregnant.  During and after pregnancy, they will normally grow 2-4" and 1-2 cup sizes.\n\nOr you can gain weight.  Since they are mostly fat, it makes sense that they will grow even "fatter".  Besiges, how many "big" girls have you seen with small breasts?\n\nQuite often, diet in adolescence has an impact, along with genetics.  My grandmother is flat chested.  But she was born and raised in Korea in the 1930-1940's.  My mother has an average sized chest, and she was born in the US in the 1960's.  I have a larger chest then she does, I am sure part of which is due to my father being Caucasian.

You're feet would be scortched from the heat, even at 3,00 miles away from the sun... duhh! So why the saying?

The idiom makes sense when you consider the meaning of sunshine. \n\nEven if you take it literally to mean walking on the ground that the sun is shining on, it's not necessarily too hot, with or without shoes.\n\nThese are different definitions of sunshine:\nThe light or the direct rays from the sun. \nThe warmth given by the sun's rays. \nA location or surface on which the sun's rays fall. \nRadiant cheerfulness; geniality. \nA source of cheerfulness.

How did you get him in there in the first place and why.


hey pplz well i ma in a big bubble you see i am in the 10th grade and i weigh 130 pounds i know totallly sick well i nedd to lose thst extra fat so that i can become what ihave dreamed of for such a long time a model. I am hoping yall can help me out. Give me workouts by email, exercises anything it will all help. THNX ALOT!!\n\nLove ya, \nYo girl jazzy

When I was in highschool I was always heavier than I wanted to be and it was difficult because I was very competitive with my friends. I found out years later that a medication that I was on was the cause of my weight gain and switched it. In the meantime though, I developed a lot of good habits so I didn't get way too big. I stretched every morning, drank plenty of water, stayed away from pop, and tried my best to snack on healthy foods like fruit, veggie sticks, yogurt, and occasionally pretzles or popcorn. I still do those things today and I am 28.(Most people don't believe me when I tell them that) \nSo my advice to you is just to be sure of everything you are putting into your body including medications: you should make yourself aware of their side effects\nAnd have fun too.. there are so many things to do that are physical that get you in shape without even realizing it.\nTake dance lessons, jump on a trampoline, run, play sports.\nHope things work out for you


We are military with a choice of Kings Bay, Mayport FL, Jacksonville Florida or Pensacola. We have 3 kids and are looking for the best place to move of the choices given.

I have lived in St. Marys, GA (at Kings Bay) and in Jacksonville (stationed at Mayport).  I didn't have kids when I lived there, but I think the Kings Bay area would be the better of those two for a family. It's a beautiful little community, everything looks new and the people are friendly.  Jacksonville is so big, and is more adult-oriented, at least the closer you are to the base.  As I remember, the cost of living was about the same (they're only about an hours drive from one another). The gas was cheaper in GA.  The Kings Bay base is a WHOLE lot nicer than Mayport. I lived in the areas from 1993 to 1999.  Never lived in Pensacola, but I hope this helps with the other two.  Good luck, GO NAVY!


An orphan is standing on one side of a really busy street and his parents are standing on the other side. How does he get across?


I mean, people, its the 21st century and people are bothered by this. Whatever happend to the rights of every human being, the right to marriage, to love and NO prejudice?? I dont see how it is considered wrong and immoral. Opinions anyone??

One of those above answers is simply rediculous.  Allowing same sex marriage is not an attempt to squelch the religious objections to it.  That post was simply a more tactful way of saying the same thing as those signs that Phelps and his lunatics wave around declaring that, if we're going to be tolerant of others, then we need to tolerate intolerance as well.  That is nonsense.  You have a right to believe what you will, you do NOT have a right to dictate how others live their lives.\n\nThere is a great difference between allowing same-sex marriage and attempting to squelch some church-goer's complaints about it.  Is it so hard for people to go about their own lives?  What could POSSIBLY be wrong with allowing same-sex marriage?


That is what I plan to major in, I want to hear from people who are in that field or know people who are.

You can make alot but depends on where you work.  Print shops pay very well.  Alot of graphic designers also free lance.  They get leads from print shops and other places.  You can start off on the high side.  My friend started off at 35k


I love harry potter books without them i wouldnt read as much as i do

Just because you read a book about harry potter doesn't mean you're going to want to perform witchcraft. People often think that way because of the ways they were brought up. (Values, morals, religon of upbringing, etc)\nIf you do want to do anything that is considered "magic" in the movie, in reality, you wouldn't be doing witchcraft at all.\nWitchcraft is a pretty broad term. Generally now, modern witchcraft is now called Wicca, and is not really "witchcraft" at all. It's a real religion, although the whole concept of "Wicca" and "religion" is really debated in the community\nPS: "Jesus Freak" didn't answer the question. she just made a blind statement.

Calculate the mass in kilograms of a flea that has a weight of 0.00780 mN. Use three sig figs.

convert to Newtons from mN, then divide by gravity because F=mg. so you get .00000780/9.8


whats the big deal? Is there something to hide? Why deny a father walking his daughter down the aisle, Just because she choises to marry into another religion?

Well it is interesting that you ask that. My brother who is not mormon recently married a mormon. They were married in the temple and we were not alowed to attend because we are not mormon. We asked what the big deal was and we were told that the temple is considered a sacred ground for the worship of mormons to their god and that non mormons entering this temple curses the belief of the church. I know it sounds ridiculous but that is part of there religion and so be it I guess. I sure am glad I am not mormon.


I have an existing Roth IRA that my parents set up for me when I was 18.  It's in one of those old fashioned brokerage firms (merryl lynch or dean witter or whatever).  I want to transfer it to an e-Trade account.  Is this possible?  or are IRA's the same as any other account.\n\nThanks

Yes you can.  And I recommend it.  ETrade IRAs give you more control and may be less costly.  I have been a customer of ETrade for over 5 years and the company has only gotten better as time goes on.  Their online instructions are easy to follow and there is always a live person to talk to (although try not to call during the peak time of day because you may have to wait more than 30 minutes to talk to someone live.)


Not obsolete as to the desirability of the freedoms it mentions, but obsolete in that the long train of abuses has finally culminated in the Surveylance Society, where the whole thing can be safely ignored.  As in 'is America over?'.\n--I think it's over.  It was nice while it lasted...\nWhat steps might be required to get it back is another question, and the answers might offend yahoo. don't go there

It's not obsolete, but both major politcal parties would like to do away with certain freedoms.  \nRepublicans obviously are violating the 4th Amendment regarding illegal search & seizures.\nDemocrats would love to get rid of the 2nd Amendment, which guarantees a a citizen's right to bear arms ( firearms).


I live in philadelphia and I am interested in getting a masters degree or some training in psychodrama.  I have a bachelor's degree in music therapy

You probably won't find an advanced program in "Psychodrama", so instead you should consider "Psychodrama" as your thesis subject and ask your local Psychology professors which field of psychology they suggest that you pursue in your advanced studies.  You can also call psych programs at just about any university and ask for their suggestions.  You should also interview someone who does psychodrama successfully and explore their recommendations.  Finally, before applying to schools, you should evaluate different programs and even interview some graduate students to understand what your life might be like in that program.  Good luck and make sure you take plenty of pre-req's in your undergrad so you can get good scores on the GRE and integrate into psychology with ease.


If your hands were handcuffed behind your back could you escape.  If you can how?

I agree with Private name.  The hardest parts are getting your arms around your butt then past your feet.  once the cuffs are in front of you, you can pick them quite easily.  unless you have the key which is even easier. ASSUMING you DON'T have a key...\n\ntry a paperclip the bigger of the 2 standard sizes works best.  or a #18 1 1/4" wire brad I used to keep one stuck in the sole of my shoe in from the side.\n\nbasically what you do from there is determine if the cuffs are double locking or not.  We are going to assume these are police cuffs. double locking means they pish in a pin (usually on the edge of the cuff) which locks the cuff trom closing tighter it also means you can't pick the catch first.  if the cuffs can get tighter then they arent doubled.  basically assuming they arent doubled straighten one of the ends of the paperclip.   the keyhole should be round with a pin in the middle and a slot coming out from the top.  put the clip in the slot at the top and bend it about 45-60 deg this will put a nice spur on the end. then work the pic down to where the slot and the circle meet.  this will give you more room to work. curve the pic (paperclip) in toward the right and twist clockwise it will hit the catch and release the cuff.  if it is double locked you simply do the same thing counterclockwise to undo the double then unlock the catch as described.\n\nthis is for the standard police cuff.\n\nthere are however many variations of cuffs some double locks have to be 1-2 unlocked meaning you have to do it really quickly.  some have a different circle slot for the double.  some keyholes are an 8 one pin for the double the other for the catch.\n\nalso some cuffs are hinged making the porcess MUCH HARDER.\n\nMy avg time depending on the setup and cuff is 1-2 mins\n\nmy best times are:\n\nwith key (i carry one on a lanyard and another on my keychain at all times)  \n\nerr \n\nwith key (not in hand) 4 sec behind back\nwithout key 14 sec behind back\n\nbringing cuffs from back to front then using key 7 sec (i did this one once in front of the chief constable of newquay police department in cornwall england once. took me just long enough for him to say " I really dont think that's going to wor-..."\n\nI was out before he could finish telling me I wasn't going to be able to get out of his cuffs.  The look on his face was priceless.  Never underestimate an american. Especially when you think it CAN'T be done.\nthe difficult we do right away.  the impossible just take a little while.\n\nbringing back to front without key 12 sec\n\nall my escapes (including the one in UK) were HINGED and or STRAIGHT BAR POLICE CUFFS. note the UK cuffs are straight bar and NO JOKE not to be taken lightly.\n\nall it takes is practice.  go out buy yourself a pair of police cuffs and fiddle with them til you figure it out.  that's what I did.


what do you think about this movie?i think it`s a great.mel gibson is a great actor and also he`s a great director.

It presents very good what really happened to Jesus, but it has too much violence. They wipe him for 20 minutes! It wasn't necesary...


Looking to perhaps audit a class or take a programming class to learn how to create professional web pages.

At home.\n\nHTML is very easy to learn, I taught myself.\nThen Add CSS. Then, if you are more ambitious, add PHP and Javascript.\n\nI hear good things about http://www.w3schools.com. Also get a book. start with small books, the bigger ones just give you information overload.\n\nYou will need a code editor (which is realy just a glorified text editor). There are a bunch of free ones. Here is an example: http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm. You will also need an image editor. Photoshop Elements is great, any version.\n\nIt is best to learn the code first and then move to a program like GoLive or DreamWeaver only if you want to.\n\nWhen you run into problems, ask for specific help here or any of the many HTML forums on the web.


I have nothing against them and I respect anyone's decision to listen to them but I don't understand why everybody likes them so much. Seriously, I am a beginner on the guitar and I can play their songs perfectly. They are that simply and easy!\n\nIf you say you prefer lyrics over music then why don't you listen to poets like Bob Dylan and Damien Rice?\n\nPlease, no ugly comments. This is an intellectual discussion, not a boxing match.

True that! I can't play guitar worth anything, but when I tried to learn, the first songs I learned were part of Stairway to Heaven and the entire Time of my Life song by Green Day. They have a couple good songs, but they're only good til the radio over plays them. And all the other bands looking like them? I totally agree. Rock is an artform not yet realized by the younger generation. \nI like Damien Rice very much, I also adore Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters (although their last CD was bull----), overall, there are some amazing acts out there, but some of the kids are blinded by the glitz of these cookie cutter rock bands (of course promoted by MTV and clear channel radio because they're paid to do so!) that have come out in this generation.

Okay, theis is what happened. I was going out with this ABSOULUTELY AMAZING guy. he treated me just right and seemed to understand me 100%. But there was always something that didn't feel right. Our religions are totally different and thats the only reason we broke up. he says he still likes me and often signs his cell messages, luvya, and then his name. i am totally still in love with him, but now were just friends and i can't help but wonder what it would have been like if we'd stayed together. we are still, really good friends, and talk to eachother EVERY day. Another problem, he now lives very far away from me so we hardly ever see eachother. its been like this for months and nothing has changed. our feelings are for real. WHAT MUST I DO NOW?

Just try to respect your own religions and be happy for each other. Get back together and work things out, you obviously still love each other. Maybe that is your purpose in life that God has created for you. Don't stress on that issue that much because it can be worked out :-)I should Know so trust me


Such as Atlantis... and if so how would we do it?

Nuclear submarines are virtually self-contained cities already.  There are also a few underwater hotels.


I know this may sound crazy but when i was 2 years old i told my mom that i had another family before her and we all died thats how she got me. I have been looking on the web but can find nothing.

you should read these the book "Echoes of the Soul" by Echo Bodine. Some kids remember details from previous lives. Some of the stories and examples she relates will give you goose-bumps--I mean that in a good way! Another good book is 'Indigo Children" by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober. When one of my nephews was around four, he told my sister that he wanted 'to visit the people who lived on the farm across from the church' My sister was adament he had never been to anyplace like that, let alone visited people in that location...Unless you plan have more details as to the 'other family' i.e., name and location, you  would have to search every newspaper in the world. If you know an approximate location (in the US) I would try the state or local Historical Society...they may either a record of deaths (usually by county or parish) or have an index of local newspaper obituaries. Also, keep in mind, your previous life may not have been at all recent...


I have been friends with this guy since 2nd grade and I knew I had a crush on him, but now I think I'm truely in love.  He's so...perfect...

Yes, I have... :P Have to say that I'm actually quite in the same boat as you for right now, Tori-chan, but also kind of hurt because I saw him hugging another girl the other day...*sigh* I don't know.  Things work themselves out.


Are businesses required to have working bathrooms for employees?  What if there is a plumbing problem and employees have no access to toilets in the building?  Also, is it legal to have men and women share a bathroom?  Or is it against the law to have seperate bathrooms for men and women?

You should look up the department of health in your county and call them to find out what the law is, most likely the business is required to have a bathroom.  You can also file the complaint with them.

I recently came off a long term relationship and kind of jumped into another one.  And I’m second guessing my decision of jumping into a new relationship AKA rebounding.

Rebound relationship is a no no...  you should have taken the time to move on and let go of all the anger, disappointments and stuff.\n\nDon't even LOOK for it, instead do some soul searching within yourself. Get to know yourself even better and know what you really want in a relationship. \n\nEvery break up HURTS. But you can never get back to the person who have hurt you my moving on too soon. Making better of YOURSELF is a way to get back to someone.


My sister is getting married in september and I'm going to be in the wedding. I want to be able to get a pretty dress for her wedding. I also want to feel good about myself.

I don't mean shaven either. I notice that when I cover up with a hat, women are more likely to talk to me. When I go without one I rarely get a second look. It's not my choice to be like this.

My guess is women only like chrome on there Harleys...Cause when I ride up on my Softail with my long hair....All the womens heads turn....


I get confused or at the very least don't see why or where it is that people see that there will be no actual   man who is Anti-Christ?  I don't understand why people think that he is just a made up character, or even that he was a past spiritual personification?  Anyone know?

Their are alot of anti christ out there that are real men. If you don't beleive in christ then you are anti christ also.


yes i believe they are to materialized. they dont see the most important things around them and think that they have to outdo everyone around them. women are the worst. i am one and i know..


Ok, I just got over a viral infection, which I had to goto the hospital for spitting up blood. That's all good (and too expensive) but the last week or so I've been breaking out in rashes and have developed one in my throat. It's itchy and sore and I feel discomfort when I swallow. I also have some pain in my left ear when I swallow as well. I can't really afford to see the doc again, so if anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

Mono can hit after a viral infection- you're just worn down.. It can sometimes occur with a sore throat.  Also, you could have thrush, which can be attributed to many things, but you can definitley get it if you were on any type of breathing treatment or inhaled steroid for your viral infection.  Here is a symptom matching flow chart from family doctor.


ive written two leetres about how i feel but i dont even talk to him up front im always scared but we are always looking at each other so what do i do?

just tell yourself that any guy would be lucky to have you. if you have confidence, it will be much easier. pump yourself up before you know you will see him. try not to look nervous...just go up to him like he's your best friend and be like.."hey, what's up" be casual and let things happen naturally, don't rush it.


how bad that is. i told her that that is the same thing as not being friends with someone because they are black. she was just like OHH  I LOVE BLACKS! i asked her what she would do if i was one, i told her to answer seriously and she just steered away from the topic and changed the subject. she later tells me that she hates mexicans, she hates lesbians, she loves gays and she loves blacks. what kind of discrimination is this? how can i get it through to her how bad it is to think that way?

Well, you can never "make" someone understand anything, that is what makes it the worst.  The best you can do is remind her that lesbians are normal, feeling, people just like everone else.  Just because they feel differently doesn't mean they are wrong.  Different taiste, and attractions, doesn't mean a person is going to hell, and it doesn't mean they need to be saved.  If your friend refuses to see things from an accepting point of view, then you could try asking her this; "What if your mom recently realised she was gay, do you think you would suddenly decide she wasn't worth your time too??"


I still have love for him do you think i should go back with him?

you should give him one more chance and if he doesn't prove to you that he loves you and he can take care of you, dump him. as girls we deserve the best of guys


I am considering trying HBOT for my 2 year old son with developmental delays and would love to hear from someone who has tried it.

1st of all, many chinese themselves confused buddhism, taoism & Confucianism altogether,as the these 3 theologies made a very deep impact in chinese culture.\nso, its a 'distorted' view that deities/ 'god' are auspicious.\n(buddha never said he is god, but that's another story altogether).\n2ndly, money/ wealth is very important to chinese way of life. why? because chinese seldom sees peace reigns for a long time. chinese often fight against chinese for the past 5000 years. therefore, with wealth, it equates with 'power'.\nso, to answer your question, why do people (assuming you meant chinese people, sorry if i'm wrong) believe a buddha is good luck, is because people needs affirmation that buddha protects them in wealth & health. it is public knowlege that buddha promotes compassion & loving-kindess.\n(buddha never said that if you pray to him, you'll get wealth & health either. another distorted point of view again).


she is fight with my dad and icanot stay with him

call a relative .. grandma is best and have them contact your mother to tell her that .. her daughter? .. needs her or whatever the situation is .. tell the relative to tell your mother .. if you cannot stay with him because of abuse or something you need to contact an authority .. tell a relative what's going on and that you need to get out of the house

I have been reading up on an interesting theory about the Roman Emperor Nero being the person that the Bible is referring to in Rev 13:18, so if this is true, who are the earlier beasts?  \n\nRev 13:5 reads:\n\nAnd there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.\n\nGaius is the only emporer before Nero that could possibly fit this description because his reign was from A.D. 37-41 Three years and ten months to be exact;  The bible mentioned 42 months which is three years and six months...\n\nFrom reading this site I could see where it would make sense for him to fit into the theory, but I'm still skeptical.\n\nhttp://www.roman-emperors.org/gaius.htm \n\nJust food for thought...

No. Though he would be LIKE Nero, this is another person who is yet to be revealed.


...and it starts beeping to warn me I'm going over...but I feel fine, like I'm getting a really good workout.  In fact, if I exercise in the lower range I don't feel I'm getting a good workout at all. Any thoughts? Should I ignore the heart rate monitor and just do what feels right?

First question is, how did you determine your max? You may be using too low a value.\n\nThe simplistic method is to us the value 220 minus your age. But that is a one-size-fits-all number that doesn't take a lot of things into consideration.\n\nAnother way of determining your max that I've read about, is to run 800m hard, take a short rest interval, maybe about twice the time you ran, then run a second 800m. When you finish, take your pulse, and use that value for your max.

There has to be a reason.  I know I can live without crime or hate or poverty.  Why can't we all?

Because the leadership bows to special interests instead of looking at the big picture.


sex and lust is all that remains, correct? No honor, no sense of duty or direction? Just who gets the first slobberknocker, or lilly lick. Love is a tawdry institution that reeks of death. It is corrupt and tainted. It has litterally become a tool, the worm on the hook. Well folks, does the worm on the hook wiggle for the fish? Love is the ultimate half-truth. If sex is sweet, and death is bitter, love is both. Anyone agree?

I strongly disagree. Love is the most fantastic feeling there is. It is warm and sweet and comforting. Stop dating hookers, you'll have a whole new take on Love.

t-shirt business is saturated. cafepress.com stinks but its the best bet. You need to invest the money in the equipment. People have great t-shirt ideas all the time, but few are successful.


What is the best time?\n\nShould I try to be the first candidate interviewed? Should I try to be the last?

I would suggest Tuesday through Thursday as Monday is bad (people are playing catch up in the office) and Friday is bad as everyone is dreaming about their weekend off.  Be five minutes early or right on time and dress professionally as well.  Don't forget your smaile and a solid friendly (dry) hand shake, first impressions can be big in interview situations.  Remember you are interviewing them as much as they are interviewing you, so have some solid questions prepared to ask.  what type of benefits are offered, what does his/her perfect candidate's work history look like, what specific objectives met will make you a success in this position, is there room for advancement etc...  Good luck!


How can I fight a moving violation citation that takes a picture of my vehicle and sends me a fine over the mail?

Depends on the state....in Texas for example, there is no cap on fines...and if you receive two or more citations during one year, the state will send you a bill for surcharges ranging from $100.00 to $2500.00.\n\nFighting the automated tickets can be tough; especially if you are guilty.  If in fact, you are not guilty, request a trial by jury.  If the trial ever happens, the juries are usually sympathetic to the camera cases.  In Texas, they were banned when a state judge received a ticket in the mail for doing 328 miles per hour in a 45 mile per hour zone in a Buick.\n\nThe best way to handle any ticket if you have a clean record, is to request defferred adjudication or request to complete defensive driving course and the offense will be dismissed.\n\nGood Luck and drive safe!

Hi, I have started importing rimless eyewear frames(brandless) from India and China. Now these are great quality and i am giving a one year warranty on these frames. I am ready to sell it in wholesale(min. 10 orders for $30/frame) and to individuals(i am mostly looking for wholesale) for $50. But my problem is that the local retailers who sell these frames(similar frames) for $220 are not ready to buy from me as they say that they want a company backing me up. How do i make a start? What should be my strategy? I truly beleive that the market for frames have a monopoly charging ridiculous prices for frames  and the people deserve much better and cheaper prices and that is the reason i started importing it. Can anyone advice me what my strategy should be and why would the people be/not be interested in a product like this?

Couple of issues.\n\n1. If you are aproaching these companies as an individual and they're wanting a company to "back you up", I would strongly suggest you either set yourself up with a business lic. under a fictitious name. This can be done through your county. The other alternative would be to set up a corporation through your state or a different state, Nevada being a popular choice. The corporation would give you tax benefits and personal asset protection but is more complicated and costly.\n\n2. Economies of scale. If you are importing 10 units per month the companies you aproach are importing 1000 units per month greatly lowering their cost.\n\nSuggestions:\n\n1. Try ebay you might be surprised at the results.\n\n2. Attend trade shows specificly related to the product you are selling.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nPS. ignore my spelling.\n\nRascal

It ionizes one of the upper sections of the atmosphere, hence called the ionosphere (mainly  oxygen, nitrogen, and hydorgen atoms). At the surface level high frequency sun radiation has lost most of its energy, so it can only ionize individual atoms and molecules, which is virtually unnoticable.

For a senior software engineer/architect with a family looking to move to a country with reasonable job outlook and progressive (i.e. left wing politics).

The U.S. is definitely NOT a liberal country! As a matter of fact 'liberal' is pretty much a swear-word these days. So, please forget all the patriotic opinionating of the previous posts. \n\nCanada is fairly liberal (at least in comparison to the U.S.), even with their newly elected conservative government, and there are decent jobs available. It's pretty easy to get an immigration visa, too - we just got ours last summer:)\n\nOther than that I would go with the Scandinavian countries or the Netherlands. All of which are on the left politically and have a high standards of living. I believe Norway has repeatedly been awarded as most desirable country to live in by the U.N. (don't quote me on that one though).\n\nFor a liberal the U.S. is definitely one of the least desirable places to live in, unless you move to San Francisco:)


I would like a detailed definition of the term globalization. Thank you.

Globalization\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.\nJump to: navigation, search\n\nGlobalization is the changes in societies and the world economy that result from dramatically increased international trade and cultural exchange. It describes the increase of trade and investing due to the falling of barriers and the interdependence of countries. In specifically economic contexts, the term refers almost exclusively to the effects of trade, particularly trade liberalization or "free trade" (however, see "meanings" below). More broadly, the term refers to the overall integration, and resulting increase in interdependance, among global actors (be they political, economic, or otherwise).\nA picture taken in Dubai International Airport, in the United Arab Emirates showing some of the characteristics of globalization. Here, the corporation McDonalds is marketing their "McArabia" meal, consisting of grilled kofta.\nEnlarge\nA picture taken in Dubai International Airport, in the United Arab Emirates showing some of the characteristics of globalization. Here, the corporation McDonalds is marketing their "McArabia" meal, consisting of grilled kofta.\n\nFrom 1910 to 1950, a series of political and economic upheavals dramatically reduced the volume and importance of international trade. But these trends reversed starting with WWI and continuing through WWII, when the Bretton Woods institutions were created (i.e. the IMF and the World Bank). After World War II, international trade dramatically expanded, fostered by international economic institutions and rebuilding programs. From the 1970s, the effects of this trade became increasingly visible in terms of benefits and disruptive effects.\n\nIt is useful to distinguish economic, political, and cultural aspects of globalization, although all three aspects are closely intertwined. The other key aspect of globalization is changes in technology, particularly in transport and communications, which it is claimed are creating a global village.


I need this for a science project && I looked everywhere but cant find he answer!

first of all, to Paranoid Princess:\n\nwhoa, whoa WHOA.  just a minute.  the sky is not blue because there's liquid oxygen in the upper atmosphere.  that's just retarded and you shouldn't go presenting bizzare mis-truths as fact when they *aren't* fact.\n\nhere is a profile of temperatures at various altitudes:\nhttp://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/images/profile_jpg_image.html\nas you can clearly see the lowest temperature is about -100C.  oxygen liquefies at -182C at normal pressures (reference: http://www.ucc.ie/ucc/depts/chem/dolchem/html/elem/elem008.html ), and even lower temperatures at the low pressures in the upper atmosphere.  PLEASE don't present some bizarre fiction as truth to someone who isn't well-informed enough to know that you're simply fabricating nonsense from thin air.  if you have simply been misled by someone else, at least try to do a marginal amount of research before answering a question on something you don't know much about.\n\nthat said, to the original asker:\n\nthe sky is blue because of a phenomenon called "rayleigh scattering", which occurs because the molecules of air (mostly N2 and O2) happen to be the right size to scatter blue light in all directions.  some of this blue light reaches your eye after being re-scattered again by a second molecule, sometimes all the way across the sky.  \n\nthis is also why the sky turns red at sunset - at low angles, the sunlight has to travel a longer distance through the atmosphere, and by the time it reaches your eye, a lot of the blue light has already been scattered away, leaving yellow orange and red.  (i have yet to hear any explanation of why the sky doesn't turn green between daytime and sunset, though.  still tryin' to figure that one out.)\n\nanyway here are some home/school experiments designed to illustrate rayleigh scattering:\nhttp://www.physics.brown.edu/physics/demopages/Demo/optics/demo/6f4010.htm\nhttp://www.chaosscience.org.uk/dem/public_html/article.php?story=20050222224622239\nhttp://teachers.web.cern.ch/teachers/archiv/HST2002/smallexp/krug/Rayleigh.htm\nhttp://bulldog2.redlands.edu/facultyfolder/deweerd/research/scattering-AJP.pdf\nhttp://www.ktca.org/newtons/9/sky.html\n\nalso, a nice page illustrating rayleigh scattering:\nhttp://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/atmos/blusky.html\nand a slightly more advanced version:\nhttp://world.std.com/~mmcirvin/bluesky.html


I heard from my friend that in india only gazetted officers can sign in green ink. Is that true? If others sign, is that an offence?

Great Question. Im gonna have to find out from a lawyer.


Could a company/business be incorporated in the US by a forigner not residing in the US? What type of business can be incorporated (LLC etc). Does it need a local address, local contact, is there any agency that provides this service?

Incorporations are done through the states, so it's best to contact the state directly. I put the link to a directory of Secretary of State links.\n\nI posted a couple links to informative articles about business structures.\n\nCheck out the Small Business Administration web site -- they're a great resource for the small business owner. \n\nHope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your endeavors!


the megalodon may still live deep in ocean waters considering we have only explored 1% of the abayssal plain and who knows what is at the bottom of the trenches namely the Marina.  Also 17 teeth were said to be found on the bottom of a boat.

giving that the coelecanth was thought to have been extinct it is theoreticly possible however unlikley


There is alot of Oxygen in water & alot of water in Oxygen.

Not sure what you mean. \n\nHowever water is a compound made up from 2 atoms of hydrogen(H) and one atom of oxygen (O), hence H20. You cannot have water without either element, so yes oxygen is needed to make water.
