I need to know if infra red light projected from a IR illumitor can be seen by fish??

Sounds like a great science project.  If they can, the next question would be why would they need to?


I don't want to use my current yahoo address & want an entirely new one.

Just create a new account and tell all your friends (update some web site you have registered your email to) to send to the new one, and forget about the old email account. After a period of 6 month of inactivity (if i don't remember it wrongly) your old account will become dormant to yahoo.


I've always been curious what colors people see distorted.  I have a friend who is color blind who sees black as tan, and purple as green.

Color blindness is dependent on the visual spectra.  OK..thats lots of jargon so here is simple way to look at it.  You visual light is while however if you put a prism you will see rainbow colors (remeber prism experiemnt?).  Well, your eye is designed to synthesize white visual light into optical shades (rainbow) and hence one can see colors.\n\nNow two ends of this color spectra are Blue and Red and everything in between.Depending upon, where there is a deficiency in your prism (eye), it can vary in color interpreation.  Hence, it varies with ansers below. There have been examples in the history that baristors (lawyers in English court) went to court with Red coat (instead black) and judges thought that person was a prankster...this is before color blindness was identified..


This guy i'm talking to wants to try it and has been wanting too since he has moved to North Carolina. I made a mental note of it and I want to surprise him by taking him for a full day and a pick nic. I think it would be a good way to show that I care and pay attention.

Im wondering is there any cases at all around the globe that a certain individual acquires his dual citizenship and enjoys the same priveledges of both citizenship. If you having a longterm visa provided  by japan and you wish to permanent it or acquiring a permanent residency what are the opportunities and priveledges you can enjoy compare in having a japanese citizenship, regarding traveling in other foreign countries if your having only a permanent visa of japan is there a need to apply a visa in order to enter another foreign country. If your a japanese citizen is it true that you dont need to apply a tourist visa in oder to enter foreign countries.

Many countries allow dual citizenship, but not Japan. If you are Japanese citizen, there are some countries you may visit without visas like US up to 3 mos. If you hold a permanent visa in Japan, that is probably all you need since becoming Japanese citizen is very difficult. Even marrying Japanese is not going to give you a citizenship automatically.


I have an astigmatism rating of 5 diopters in each eye. My doctor says that my rating is so high that I should just keep my glasses. Does anyone have contacts with an astigmatism with a rating equal or worse than mine? Have you had any problems and whats your rating? Was it difficult to be fitted? What type of lenses do you use? RPG? soft? or what? Should I just keep my glasses?

Your astigmatism is pretty high.  I don't know your specific situation, but there are contacts available (both soft and rigid RGPs).  The problem with soft toric contacts and your high astigmatism is that they have to be oriented on your eye very precisely - if they rotate at all, you'll get blurry vision.  (And most soft torics rotate.)  RGPs may be a better option for you because they don't rotate as much.  If you are really interested in contacts, pursue it more aggressively with your eye doctor.  He/she may not fit a lot of RGPs, but may be able to refer you to someone who does.


Do you think child molesters, sex offenders and murderers after serving their prison time, should be released into our neighborhoods? If not, then where should they be allowed to live? Has anyone had this happen to their neighborhood and if so, what was the reaction of the people living in the neighborhood?

Well, this is a tough question. And there is NO easy answer. First of all, it really does not matter whether we would like them to be released or not as the legal authority has made the rules. It does however seem that many of the released sexual convicts do seem to congregate in areas near schools and young families (which is well defined in all states) although it may just be that it SEEMS that way because we only notice that. In addition, there are many types of 'sexual abuse' lumped into one legal definition. I agree that the pervert 25 to 65 year old molesting a young girl or the 20-something female schoolteacher molesting a male student has a serious problem. But what about the 18 year old boy and his 17 year old girlfriend? Or the two 15 year old lovers? (Apart from the 'rape' issue) In most states they are legally equated and must be on the offender's list. That being said, this is a major issue we are currently dealing with as my district (I am my district's representative to my state's Children's Abuse Prevention Board) is home to a very sick predator who killed a family, abducted 2 children and later killed one of them. The remaining child was rescued and the predator awaits trial. I can't imagine what goes through his sick brain to commit such an act. He was released from another state by a judge who apparently did not understand how sick this guy really is. \nWhat can you do? Know your state's laws and abide by them. Find out who these people are and avoid them. If they illegally live too close to a school or playground, report them to authorities. Be aware that you may not harrass them in most states and they have legal recourse against you if you do. Above all, know where your children are, who they are with, and that they are informed of what to do in a bad situation. Practice with your kids if necessary. AND REMEMBER, IF YOUR KIDS HAVE TO 'JUST SAY NO' IT IS ALREADY TOO LATE. A SITUATION EXISTS AND THEY MUST BE PREPARED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO.


The detective in Egar Allan Poe short stories

I imagine a methodic man, not much worried about his external looks. He'd probably wore old clothes and would be very anarchic in his personal life.\nSingle but dating a woman for a long time without anyone of them caring about the definitive step to tie the knot.\nHe'd drink too much spirits through the day so his mind only would be at its sharpest between 10 am and 4 pm.\nA heavy smoker, that would be his final ruin at an early age.


Women so often say they want romance.  Yet, every woman I know quickly settles for finding good sex with an ok guy.  Women truely NEED A MAN no matter if the best one she can find is almost lousy.\n\nAs Olivia Newton John sang in "Grease", "you better shape up cause I NEED A MAN!!!!"\n\nShe didn't say, "You better shape up or I'll do without."

WOW you some up all women in just a few sentence. I think most women look to find that someone that makes them happy physically and emotionally. Most will find just what they are looking for, and other may not but will not settle. You will find women that are perfectly fine with out this so called perfect mate or soul mate but would never settle they are just fine. It is so easy to put people in catigorys whether they fit or not.


Why can you only see an eclipse in some parts of the world and not everywhere if it has to deal with the sun?

Think of three balls in a gym.  a Basket ball, a golf ball, and a tennis ball.  Now think of the basket ball as being lit, its the biggest so we will pretend its the sun.  the earth would be the tennis ball, and the golf ball would be the moon.  well when the golf ball got between the sun and the earth it would create a cast shadow on the tennis ball, but its not big enough to put the entire tennis ball in shadow... that is why only part of the earth can see the eclipse.


I know it early, but do you have plans or have you made up your mind?

I love girls I look at naked woman all the time

I still don't see the problem...i'm a lesbian and I like looking at naked women...its okay..gurl embrace ur sexuality and get u some....ooo but if you're confused about the whole thing then maybe you need to take time...try to experience it a little and see if thats what you want...either way...have fun with it..*wink*


i used to play this thing called tether ball it could be quite devestating to a novice very brutal, so i think not all but some of mine i would.

Absolutely - and in fact, I'm encouraging the swordfighting with wooden swords.  I have to say though, I will be supervising it, nobody's getting a concussion on my shift.  Piñatas can be pretty bad as well.  \n\nBasically, any kind of physical running around is good, I'm just going to try and keep my kids from killing themselves or each other.


In 1993 an interesting study about Friday the 13th was published in the British Medical Journal. Its authors investigated if this mystical date is really dangerous. They compared the ratio of traffic volume to the number of vehicular accidents on two different days throughout several years. What was the conclusion of the study?

I'll bet the conclusion showed that more accidents happened on Friday the 13th. Wanna know why? Because people get too wrapped up in trying to avoid "bad luck" that they are too easily influenced/distracted by other things that normally wouldn't faze them.\n\nBut I'm wrong, correct?


he so sweet but he lies to me and cheats but i can't leave because every time i do i miss him so much.

You are not in love, you are high, that would be my guess. Read what you just wrote.\nDoes he hit you too? Would it matter?\nAsk around your trailer park, see how all the other crackheads feel.


I need 125000 btu thru a 2-stage reg. stage 2 reg is about 30 ft from the unit. should i put a second reg on the hi line or tap off the o/p of the current reg. the current reg feeds a gaspack ca 125000 btu also.


who should ask for it man or woman?\nor is there a given... no choice??

It depends on the couple if you choose to be swingers then it really dosen't matter. If it's a one time thing then I say before the wedding. Get all the skeletons out before you say I do.


I am only 25. I've had a low self esteem and have been dating the same guy for 3 yrs. Granted he is the most wonderful man in the world. There is a co-worker that I have a major attraction with and he is really into me. My bf for 3 yrs just proposed and the wedding date is June 24 but I'm in buckets of ice up to my knee caps! \nI need advice.

is it such a bad thing to live your life with someone you love?


We got through that. Now she is saying that she still has urges to, but hasn't. What do I do now?? Trust that she won't ? Hide all sharp objects?? I am really scared and don't understand why she is hurting her self! She is a pretty girl and is on the honor roll at school ( she has alot of friends)

Self-mutilation is a coping mechanism. It releases stress, pain, fear, or anxiety. Sometimes it is done to make the self-injurer feel "real" or "alive". Also, sometimes self-mutilation is done to regain control. They want to be in control of their own pain. People who self-injure are not psychotic or crazy. Self-mutilation is addicting and many self-injurers feel a strong urge to commit the act. They also feel more tense and anxious if they try to resist the urge to self-mutilate. After the act is committed, self-injurers feel relieved or more "real".\n\nI started cutting when I was 12. It's just an addiction. I'm 27 and still fight the urge. Therapy has never helped me, even in my teenage years. You can hide sharp objects, but she'll still find a way. Most cutters have a stash of objects hidden, or they use their fingernails or whatever else they can find. Educate yourself on this, and don't treat her differently.\n\nAlso, just because she's cutting doesn't mean she's suicidal. When people hear of someone self-mutilating, they assume that person is suicidal. Not true! And there are many adults who are cutters and live a very successful life. It doesn't mean her life is doomed, or that she's crazy, or that you should beat her A$$ (as said above). I sent many links--read them, they're informative! You can consider therapy, but it doesn't always help/work.\nBest of luck!\n\nhttp://www.palace.net/~llama/psych/injury.html\nhttp://www.focusas.com/SelfInjury.html\nhttp://www.self-injury.net/\nhttp://www.coolnurse.com/self-injury.htm

Okay. i live in escondido, and i've done everything you can think about in esco, San Marcos,Vista, San diego and Oceanside. My friends and I are out of ideas of what to do for fun. have any advice

Hang out at home... throw parties... at some point in every person's life, the "thrill" of going out every weekend diminishes. It sucks, but it's true.

I am a music education major at the University of Northern Colorado. I have only been here for a semester and a half, but my trombone professor has beaten my passion for music out of me. I have lost my desire and passion to pursue my degree. Any suggestions?

Don't worry about it so early. Give it at least until the end of the semester. The first year of college can be pretty hard, more or less from the transition from high school. Are there hard professors? Absolutely. Have you checked to see if you are required to take private lessons the entire time you are in school? Also, if you eventually get to thinking about changing a major, perhaps consider changing to a "general music" degree (more of a liberal arts degree). Best of luck to you, just remember that although things seem tough now you'll end up having a lot of fun later.


Do they monitor certain politico-philosophical trends on the web?\nShould they?

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees, among other things, freedom of speech, but this right is not absolute.  Certain types of speech are not protected by the Constitution, which means that State goverments may promulgate laws to limit them.  Examples include "fighting words" (words meant to provoke a physical fight), "commercial speech" (claims made in advertising), "obscenity" (prurient language), etc.


Ok I am 5' 9" and 179lbs I am not exactly FAT but I am heavy set I have back fat and my dress is kinda backless. I am so excited but I dont want a pudge in the front of my dress either.... HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Girl, go to Bailey's Total Fitness, for like 30 days, I worked out for two weeks and already saw results (at the YMCA). You could do it at your local YMCA, but you have to be SUPER motivated...sounds like you are.  On the day of prom..no carbs (increases bloating), no salt and drink LOTS of water (makes you pee more, reduces bloating also)...that night just have fun.. After an hour of dancing you don't give damn anymore anyways....


Many say it is. However, we should also take into consideration of the executive labor market (supply & demand), their performance, the stock market (market boom, so do their stock options), etc.

In general, no. Maybe a few companies are paying an amout that is not in their best interest of the company, but oh well, companies make bad decisions all the time. Take executives pay into account before investing in the long term.


I'm a girl and he is shorter than me.  This may be an issue for him, but not for me.  I obviously don't like him because he's tall.  He's foreign and calls me consistently, as I do him, but we're not dating.  We're both grounded Christians.  He sent me a valentines' card that said "Spending time with you is one of the happiest things in my life." and then sprayed it with his colone!  Talk about confusing.

My girlfriend is cold to me at work but alone she is totally opposite.  She says she's a private person (we\nare also practicing Christians) and does not like the \nattention she gets and says she does not like other people\nknowing her business.  She says that's just the way she\nis.

How can a person measure his intelligence? Please tell something better than IQ tests and if there are any free tests available online. Thanks for your time and answers.

Hello,\nAyshu gave an excellent answer. But its not practical cuz u cant really probe into your brain to check out the amount of gyri and sulci (they are the elevations and depressions, the grooves on the surface of your brain)\nIntelligence cannot actually be measured as it is a constantly evolving characteristic. But IQ tests give a good approximation of your intelligence. Check out this site, it is free (u have to sign up though) and it has a vast array of free tests and premium tests. The premium tests can be taken for free, but they will only display your generalised results. For complete, specialised results, u have to pay. But most tests are completely free....


http://mp3search.ru is pretty good. Most songs are 10 cents, and you get a 10% discount for buying a whole album. There are lots of out of print albums, maxi singles and bootlegs.

I believe it is in a solution containing either NaCl, or sterile water, not sure which one.  I need to be able to write out the chemical reaction.

When writing a chemical formula, it does not matter the percent of the solution.  In this case, since it is in a solution of either NaCl, or water, this does not need to be placed in the equation.  The only thing that is needed is a subscript to the dextrose of (aq), which indicates it is in an aqueous solution.  Since, this is the natural form of glucose, its chemical formula is C6H12O6.


How would I know if it is the correct answer?

how about look up dictionary in the thesaurus


I am not a very competetive person, I just play sports for the fun of it. So I don't really want to do High School ball, because the coaches are all about winning. But my Mom says doing High School ball everyday will help me get better. With babe Ruth I only have practice 2 or 3 times a week. I want to be able to do my homework, without staying up untill 12:oo PM! This is a hard choice, and I have to decide before 5:15 PM Eastern Time becase try-outs start then. So what's your answer????????????

High School baseball will open more doors for you. you may not be competitive but when you plan to go to colleges, the schools you apply to will look at your transcripts and see that you played HS baseball and contributed to your school in other ways than just attending school. Your coaches can also be used as references for colleges and jobs. It also gives you an opportunity to make friends with people you go to school with. Making friends can't be a bad thing.


There are lots of FREE tabs out there, but that doesn't neccessarily mean GOOD.  All the sites I find out there have pop-ups galore and incorrect tabs and chords.

I have 5 years experience in mortgage and Real Estate.. you can do whatever you want with your property, remember the longer you hold on to it, the more it appreciates.  When it comes to paying off debt, you need to consider a few things: \n\n1) if you consolidate your debt, you may be able to deduct it on your taxes (consult a tax accountant beforehand).\n\n2) or you can just refinance, get a better rate, and use your savings to pay off your exsisting debt.  Especially with the interest only loans available, they can reduce your mortgage payment considerably.  (you need to consult with a TX licensed mortgage broker for those options). \n\nThe last option is nice because it doesn't eat away at any of your equity.\n\nHope this helps..


There are a lot of people who want to say Christians should take a vow of poverty. But my thing is. If I am impoverished Christian, how can I help someone else out of poverty? I even heard the late Pope John II say we should take this vow of poverty? But he lived in the papal palace and rode in customized Mercedes.\n\nThis bothers me because so many people seem to agree. I think a person in poverty can't help lift another one out. I think people have to see blessed in order to recognize blessed. I am not talking about walking by sight, but understanding the manifestation. \n\nI see people bash Bishop T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen, and Creflo Dollar for what seems like big-fundraising for themselves; and it bothers me. The question becomes. Is the church not suppose to grow? Are we suppose to say, "Hey we have 10,000 members already, you'll have to come back when some of these people leave." \n\nLet me know.

"The problem with both Prosperity Theology and Poverty Theology is that they are both half right and both half wrong. What they share is that they are both wrong to make money the issue. The real issue is not money, but righteousness. Therefore, there are not two kinds of people—rich and poor—but rather four kinds of people as categorized here:\n\nCategory #1\nRighteous Rich\nPeople who become rich because God has blessed them, they have worked hard, invested smart, and have not obtained wealth through sin. These people also spend their money righteously through tithing, sharing, caring for the needy, etc. Examples include Abraham, Job after he was restored, and Joseph of Aramathea.\n\nCategory #2\nThe Unrighteous Rich\nPeople who become rich through sin and spend their money in a sinful way. Examples include Pharaoh, Judas Iscariot, and the rich young ruler. \n\nCategory #3\nRighteous Poor\nPeople who are poor because they are righteous, are righteous despite being poor, and act righteously with their money though they are poor. Examples include Jesus, the widow who gave her mite, and orphaned children. \n\nCategory #4\nThe Unrighteous Poor\nPeople who have no money because they do not work, do not spend wisely, and do not tithe to God. Proverbs speaks a lot about sluggards and about people not eating if they won’t work, and Paul says that any man who does not provide for his family has denied his faith and is worse than an unbeliever."\n\n"My entire point is simply that when the issue is rich and poor and not righteous and unrighteous we may have allowed red and blue politics rather than Old Testament and New Testament principles to dominate our thinking."


I've been to the classic SF Pride, but that was WAY too crowded, so it made it not even fun.

Immigrants pay taxes, in the form of income, property, sales, and taxes at the federal and state level.  As far as income tax payments go, sources vary in their accounts, but a range of studies find that immigrants pay between $90 and $140 billion a year in federal, state, and local taxes.  Undocumented immigrants pay income taxes as well, as evidenced by the Social Security Administration’s “suspense file” (taxes that cannot be matched to workers’ names and social security numbers),and which grew by $20 billion of $120 billion between 1990 and 1998 for undocumented money payed in the united states by immigrants\n\n(Source: http://www.immigrationforum.org/about/articles/tax_study.htm)\nhttp://www.justiceforimmigrants.org/myths.html

Even worse, they steal our ss#.  I have a friend who just found out that his ss# was stolen - the IRS audited him and wanted back taxes for a job he never worked over in AK.  We live in Texas.

He has both the Texas and AK DA's investigating.

Good Luck


he want me to go there and be with him forever,did u think he really serious with me?

I met this guy at some chats last year. We realized that we were really serious about each other.He proposed that he find a really good job in my country (we're one oceans apart), just so that he can be closer to me.He's not here in my country YET but yeh, he got a GREAT job already and he's arriving at the airport THIS SUNDAY!!!!! I'm very optimistic about our relationship face-to-face.. It's definitely going to be better than chats.. at least we can touch now ;) Just take note of this. If he's serious about you, ask if he can go to YOUR place. You'll know how much he's serious then. \nAnd it also depends on how serious YOU are about him. Think about it yeh? Good luck!

I agree with lalala lander. You should use something other than PDF.\nOlive Tree is a web site that has free software.\nYou will need to download the BibleReader™ 3.62 for Palm OS and a free version of the Bible text.\nSee the links below.

I was looking at some apple laptop and one said airport card not included.what is an airport card?

The single biggest complaint I hear from Apple users that have Mac models introduced after 1999 and before 2003 is that Apple canceled production of the AirPort Card. Apple released the original AirPort Card in 1999 and it was more or less the same device through 2004, when it stopped being produced. There's a story behind it that I only have pieces of.\n\nThe AirPort Card was a modified version of a PC Card produced originally by Lucent. When Wi-FI was first introduced, there was Intersil and Lucent, and a few other players with very little marketshare. Intersil produced the Prism series of chips used by Linksys and many other companies; Lucent (which acquired its product line by buying WaveLAN) sold its cards under the name Orinoco and sold chips to Apple. Apple included a special slot for this card in iMacs starting in 1999. The original Wi-Fi flavor was 802.11b, which operated at a raw rate of 11 Mbps.\n\nIntersil wound up becoming an also-ran in the Wi-Fi market as upstart Broadcom captured the early 802.11g market despite Intersil pushing the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) encoding method that became the way that 802.11g reached 54 Mbps of raw speed. Intersil later sold its wireless products to GlobespanVirata which merged with Conexant. Conexant now focuses its wireless efforts on integrated home gateways.\n\nBroadcom grabbed a huge hunk of the 802.11g market, snagging Belkin, Buffalo, Linksys, and Apple. Lucent had, in the meantime, spun its chipmaking division off as Agere, which didn't provide 802.11g chips til a little too late for Apple and the rest of the marketplace. Atheros, meanwhile, which had started as an 802.11a company for the enterprise, shifted gears and signed up NetGear, D-Link, and, later, a lot of startup wireless LAN switch companies. Intel (via Centrino), Marvell, Atheros, and Broadcom are recognized as the leading Wi-Fi chipmakers today.\n\nApple sold Broadcom's package as a modified mini-PCI card that fits into a new special slot inside all current Macs. It continued to sell the AirPort Card, lowering the price in 2004 to $80 down from the $100 it had charged from its 1999 introduction.\n\nAgere wound up selling its Wi-Fi product line to Proxim which first stopped selling to consumers, and then went into bankruptcy and had its assets acquired by Terabeam, which also acquired the Ricochet brand and system. (Ricochet was an early metropolitan-scale wireless system funded by Paul Allen that could offer speeds up to about 128 Kbps by its end, but like many Allen projects, it was a few years ahead of its time and ahead of the technology.)\n\nIt's pretty clear, though I've never heard it said, that at some point in this magical mystery merger tour that whatever company was still produced either the silicon or the complete package for Apple's AirPort Card stopped doing so: either the company's contract with Apple ran out or the company was incapable of continuing to run the product line. Either way, the AirPort Card disappeared and with it the hopes of a short generation of Mac users of having a simple way to connect wirelessly.\n\nUsed and never-opened AirPort Cards continue to sell on eBay, now typically for $120 to $140. The problem with used AirPort Cards is that both they and the original AirPort Base Station were notorious for going on the fritz after a year or two. I had two AirPort Base Stations die; this is a fixable problem, however, and the folks at BSR Tech offer repairs for graphite and snow ABS's and newer AirPort Extreme Base Stations, too.\n\nWhat prompted this reverie is that I noticed on Dealmac today, my favorite bargain-promoting site, an offer for a $100 refurbished AirPort Card from TechRestore.com. Use Dealmac's coupon to get the discount. It's odd to see this card listed as "refurbished" because it's a solid hunk of circuit board. It either works or not. It's possible they did some burn-in tests to confi


There's little doubt that civil war has been taking place in Iraq for some time.  Our presence has been the only thing preventing a full scale civil war.  This is the case for two reasons: 1) with our military occupying the country, the sects cannot wage full scale war against each other, because of our troops.  and 2) the only thing uniting the Sunnis and Sh iites is their hatred for the United States.  \n\nWith 80% of the US public and 65% of the troops saying there should be drastic reductions in US forces in Iraq sometime in 2006, there will be political battles to bring at least some of them home this year.  \n\nHowever, violence is increasing between the two sects, and our troops will be sitting in the middle of it, trying to protect themselves.  So, my question is, how do you prevent civil war?  \n\nIts clear that the democratic process has all but failed in Iraq.  Members of Parliment are being assasinated, and they can not meet without being attacked.  \n\nWhat should we do?

Nobody can stop civil war for starting in Iraq.\nIraq will never be a democracy, no matter how long US and UK troops remain there.\nDemocracy is totally alien to muslim societies because it's oppossed to Theocracy.

I have made a powerpoint of baby pictures and wanted to add some music to it, but haven't figured out how.  I was able to get it on, but then it only played for the length of the slide, and I want the music to continue until I put the next song on.

when you add the MP3 file (the itunes file won't work) it puts the speaker in the middle of the page.\n\nRight click on it and go to sound option ;)


There are different fields within the nuclear discipline.  There are nuclear physicists, nuclear chemists, nuclear bio-researchers, nuclear engineers.  And maybe others.  Hope this helps.


ok... so i have a friend and i try to tell her that what she does is hurting her. ok so what she does is bad... she is so stuck on her self and is self centered and doesnt care what people think or say to her... she doesnt care about her family, friends, school, work, her everyday life... she doesnt care. how can i make her care? i've tried to tell her what i dont like about her but she just blows it off and doesnt listen to me or my other best friends. she doesnt care what we say. it sucks, how can she care? do i just leave her and stop being her friend all together, or do i keep pushing her? HELP! :) i honestly have never met someone as careless and arrogant as she is. how can she stop and actually act like an 18 yr. old woman and not a 2 yr. old? what makes people not listen to what others have to say?

just leave her and let her make her mistake and just hope that she learns from it.


Ok I'm not sure but I think I have HPV. And I say I'm not sure because i have the warts but The doctor's burning them. Anyway, if I had this virus, can my mom get infected when washing my underwear? Or maybe my brothers? Because she puts all the clothes in the washing machine but I don't know If this could infect them. Help me please, Thanks a lot!

No - the virus would die when exposed to the air.  If that didn't work, the washing machine would also kill the virus.  Finally, if that didn't work - then the dryer would kill it.  Don't worry.\n\nHPV is transmitted by direct contact with the warts or infected area.


I have aquired an old "Burpee Simplex Sealer model #23" home canning machine for putting things up in metal cans.  The instruction book is in bad shape but I have been able to restore it enough to be useful.  It calls for two wire gauges to make sure the seal rollers and cutter are properly aligned for a safe, water tight seal.  The company has not made these machines since the 50's and there is no where that I know of to get the gauges or learn the sizes, in order to make them myself.  Otherwise the machine is in good working order.  Just need to set it up right to use it. Thanks

Perhaps the people at Burpee can help you???  www.burpee.com

The problem in Iran is that the hard liners have power of the government, and have blocked moderates from taking any hold there in. The majority of Iranians do not wish to be governed by the hard liners, but its not uncommon for a minority to have power.


hey, what is the best April Fool's Day joke that you have ever played on someone, or had done to you?

The best one I ever pulled was in high school.  I still laugh today although I could have gotten in big trouble.  I like to go all the way.  \nI went to the bus stop crying and my friend asked me what was the matter.  I told her that my dad went away for the weekend and I accidently burned down the house.  I was really histerical.  At first they were skeptical but I kept on until they really started to believe.  Ooops! forgot to say April Fool!  At school word got around how I burned down the house and my dad was away and he doesn't know.  By the end of the day the principal called an assembly in the Gym.  I had no clue.  They had done everything so quietly.  Well the principal made this big speech about how she was so proud to be apart of this school and she loved how everyone came together and then she called my name out and told me to come to the front.  She went on to say that everyone heard about my situation and there wasn't one person in the whole school except me that contributed some money to help me.  She said that they had collected $1,000 dollars and she was only sorry that she couldn't do more.  I was so embarrassed.  How was I going to tell everyone that I was April fooling.  I didn't know what to say.  After a few long seconds I finally managed to blurt out the whole story in tears.  I was apologizing over and over again when all of a sudden the principal hugged me and said\nAPRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  she later said she had called and checked it out and found out that it had to be a prank so she thought she would follow along a turn it around on me and teach me a lesson.


okay, everytime i get my period I feel realllly hot and dizy and get head aches, along with my stomach hurting realllly bad but i know thats normal. are the other 3 things normal? and are there anyways i can stop it? i take advil but that takes like 45 mins. to kick in and it hurts way to bad.

You should start taking pain reliever before the pain gets too severe, preferably as soon as your period starts. Do not exceed the recommended dosage though. Tylenol, Advil, and Aleve all work if taken before the pain starts. Ginger tea from Yogi teas works great for alleviating stomach discomfort. Keep hydrated with water so you don't pass out. I used to have those same symptom with my period.


Just wondering if someone knows of a tried and true abortifacient that is efficient enough to be used in lieu of 'morning after' or similar methods. Thank you.


Do you think she deserves this title??  If not who would you rather it be??

Well in my personal opinion I think she is a beautiful girl, with a nice unique voice, and a great talent but that doesn't make her the sexiest person alive. I think she is very pretty and hot but I think ANGELINA JOLIE is the sexiest woman out there. She has everything Scarlett has but more. SHE admits her flaws and that makes her flawless.


I posed a question about menapause at what age it would start?

"However, perimenopause can start as early as age 35" - quoted from article on Wikipedia\n\nAnd probably earlier. Go read the page for all the different kinds of menopause. \n\nMenopause, premenopause, perimenopause and postmenopause. \n\nI'd say see a doc, but my sis did 10 years ago and they acted like idiots. Turns out her hormones were in the toilet and she needed hormone replacement therapy (natural stuff, not horse urine). She was 34 at the time. Now she does okay because she kept looking and found a good doc.\n\nMaybe things changed, maybe not. Go to a WOMAN gynecologist - I think men in that field are a waste, they don't like to really LISTEN.


My mother in law lives with us, has no income.  If we add her as a dependent do we effect her eligibility for medicaid?, will we become responsible in any way for her bills?  Thank you\nDave

Whisper is simply WRONG! Medicaid eligibility is based on INCOME and ASSETS, not dependency status. If you contribute more that 50% of your MIL's support, you may claim her as a dependent and it has no impact whatsoever on her medicare/Medicaid status. You cannot be liable for her debts unless you co-sign a debt agreement with her or guarantee payments yourself.\n\nBut why believe what you read online??  Call your Medicaid office and ASK! They will tell you.You will not have to identify yourself. The phone number is under Government Agencies. If you are worried about the debt issue, call a local attorney through a referral service and get a onetime consultation. Ask what the fee would be upfront, before you make the appointment. If it costs you more than $50-$100, say no thanks and call somebody else....\n\nGood Luck!


my skin gets really raw, and red, i use moisturizer, and i wash my face with cream cleanser, but nothing seems to help.

During the winter months try not to take hot showers even though you want to it will really dry the skin.  Also buy baby oil and rub it onto your wet skin before you "pat-dry" yourself after showering. And drink plenty of water.

i went to doc couple times and he said it nothing just growing pains.

Please, don't put your health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your mind and body. Consult yet another doctor. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)


i recently acquired a case of the shanks. all of my irons, including wedges, go severly to the right.\n\nwhat are some of the causes of this?\nwhat can i do to get back to playing golf?

Sounds like either your swing path is off or you are hitting the ball with a severely open face.\n\nMake sure your wrists are rolling open on the backswing and closing again at impact.  Also, it could be that you are coming through with your body too quickly and hitting off your back foot.  I tend to do this sometimes when I overswing. \n\nTry going to the range and hit a whole bucket with just a half swing.  Concentrate on just hitting the ball squarely.  Don't worry about distance, just a quality impact and straight shot.  This will help you regain the muscle memory of a good stroke through the impact zone.\n\nIf none of the answers here help, why not pay for a tune-up lesson.  You'd pay more than that for one round at a nice course.


I read a web site earlier today that said to avoid vitamin C for 24 hours before beginning collection & during collection of 24 hour urine sample for calcium. Why?

Vitamin C is acidic and can change the excretion of ions in urine. The problem with vitamin C is that people frequently take a lot and 1 gr, for example, could skew your results.


I have always been curious about my father.I have never met him.My mother and father were never married.She told me a few things about him,but not Alot.All I really know is his name is either Tom or Thomas,Brooks Or Cook?Wow thats alot of help,Huh?Oh and I also know that he was from Pennsylvania.A town called phillipsburgh,wich is only like 3 hrs from where I live.The last thing she told me was that he was married.And,that I have quite a few step brothers and possibly,stepsisters also?That would be so awesome because I am an Only child.I am 34 yrs old,and I'm afraid it may to late now!I have tried looking numbers up in the book,I drove to phillipsburgh and Looked,and asked around some of the places they frequented long ago.I tried to do an online search,no luck.I'm beginning to think it's not worth my time.Because I have been trying to find him off and on since I was 18!If he happens to be deceased?How would I find that out Any suggestions?Your answers will be greatly appreciated!Thank

You have a similar situation to my own.  I was locating my father on only his first and last name and my car.  I started with squeezing out as much information from my mother who was very bitter towards him.  It wasn't easy.  Start with that.  Then take that information and see what city you can start in, drive there and ask city hall to help you locate.  I think that's what got my foot in the door.  Of course, you will have to chase the goose for awhile before you may find him, don't feel let down!  it's hard and difficult, but if your persistant--you'll eventually find him!  I know from experience of four different individuels I wanted to know through my life that I had limited information on!!  \nAnd from my experience--although that void was filled of who/what my real father was like...it can be a let down in the end.  Even though I met my father, and he was very kind, met my halfsiblings and his wife--they all loved me.  We then only stayed in contact a few times more before we've lost touch again already and I haven't spoken to him in about 3 years.  But at least my curiosities have been satiated.  Just don't hold too many expectations.  Remember he's just a man :)  Besides, if your Mom is as bitter as my Mom was about my real father??  Try not to be shocked.  Even at our age...it's a trip to meet your maker.  So to speak.\n\nI wish you great luck!  It's an experience worth fighting for.


eating healthy and exercise...there are no secrets...just hard work!


The other day I was telling a friend about how I threw up 3 times after trying a new food and now he thinks I'm bulimic.  I swear I'm not, but he won't believe me. Please help!

Just drop it with him - talk about other things when he brings up the subject.  If you're not then he'll soon see you're not wasting away and that you don't binge when you're eating and that your teeth aren't being worn away from the acid...  Why waste time proving a negative?

I heard a male voice, yet she told me it was a woman. I have no jealousy issues, this is about honor and respect and the fact that she lied. Again my question is what  are my options, considering I'm sure she lied to me and plus she called me today , but left no message, which I sense is guilt on her part. What do u make of this and what would u do as a rational person.

This will be short and too the point. D-I-V-O-R-C-E if it happen to me. Once burnt twice afraid.


Does anybody know of any RELIABLE and SAFE programs for a high school student to study for a semester in another country, like Spain or somewhere in Latin America? (preferably one that has a country in those places as a choice, considering i want to do this to help improve my spanish and learn about spanish culture)Also, i will be a senior next year and have a somewhat tough schedual, would i still be able to take my classes taht i wanted to? thanks so much! also, if you do know of a program could you please post the website or where i could get more info? thanks a lot!

Well, I am currently an exchange student in Brazil, where I am 'learning' Portuguese. My program is pretty good, its called CIEE. Last year my sister went to study in Spain for a year. Just so you know, in neither Latin America or Europe do you choose your classes like you do in America. So, I doubt you will be able to take any admitable classes. Suggestion: either do a summer program or go after you senior year. I finished my freshman year and then came here, so now I have to graduate a year later than my friends. But, oh, the freedom-the fun- the parties- the experience- it's ALL worth it!


I found some websites about the 'conspiracy' of the moon landing.  It described several reasons why some believe that we never landed on the moon.  These people believe that the moon landing was faked in a studio somewhere!

Well, you are right in one thing!\n\nWE didn´t land on the moon. \nNeil Armstrong did, and the other poor astronaut that for landing second on the moon got to never be remembered.\n\nWhat´s with the WE? \n\nBut getting serious with your question, there are some conspiracy theories about it.\nThey say that the USA knew of the Soviets plans to go the moon, and since we where in the middle of the Cold War, oppinion and image WAS EVERYTHING, so the USA mounted a Fake stage of the moon, launched a rocket and claim to be the first ones in the moon.\n\nThere has never been any evidence of the moon landing not ever taking place.


It is an mid 90's video that ends with Duke beating UNLV and then winning its first title in 1991.  The song is upbeat and is played for the 1990 title game when UNLV pounded Duke.  If you know the composer, that's good as well. Thanks.

Suprisingly enough the song is called "One Shining Moment" written by David Barrett.  The current version is sung by Luther Vandross.


Our recent news in Hawaii, state officials dumped 16 million raw sewage into the Ala Wai Canal this week. Isn't this against the law in Hawaii, should there be a fine against the State of Hawaii?

It is not legal in any of the states of the U S but that does not mean a thing. The key is enforcement and there is very little.


i cant really find him i dont know what unit hes in either some please help me out i really have to fing this guy.

If you have any idea what base he is stationed at, you might be able to find him if you know his last name and social security number, but since you don't know his unit, I doubt you know his social. You can try contacting the base locator to find him, there is probably a number for the base operator in the local phone book, but my advice is to start making plans to make decisions for the baby yourself, since it seems unlikely you will find him. If he is the father, hope that he will call you, and do the right thing by you. Good luck. I hope it all works out, my prayers are with you and your baby.


I have an old Dell Pentium 667mhz pc. I know its a dinosaur but I only use this pc to surf the net and email. My question is: I have 256 DIMM in slot 1. I want to add more memory. Should I buy another 256 for Slot 2 or should I just buy 512 for one slot?

It won't matter performance-wise. If your motherboard supports 512 meg chips, and you don't mind paying the extra cost, then I'd go with the 512.\n\nNoone can ever honestly say "My computer has TOO MUCH MEMORY!"


First we ride around in a limo for an hour or so around Downtown Atlanta, and limos are always fun so we won't get bored! Then we'll go swimming and play chicken and other pool games, then we'll come inside eat pizza, snacks, listen to music, watch movies, dance act crazy, play truth or dare, anything fun! The first one to fall asleep get like 4 pranks on them, next day we go to the mall! Also if anyone has any ideas i need some! Thanx!!!!


In the opening credits for television shows, actors are often shown with some clips of their character and their name.  However, on occasion the format will differ slightly, for example "alyson hannigan as willow", instead of just "alyson hannigan".  Sometimes, the credit sequence will show some characters without their character name, and some with it.  I am curious if there is a technical distinction between these types of billings; i.e., if there is an exact reason that determines how an actor/actress is billed.

Their Agent or Manager worked it in the contract so that their client, the actor would get more name, face, and character recognition.... simply a matter of good business.

does anyone know ho to make a good informative thesis statement. i have two topics.\n1. bird flu\n2. diabetes

Ask yourself what do you and your readers want to learn from your paper and go from there...brainstorm...draft an outline... your topics are broad so you have to narrow them down...for example, diabetes..talk about how diabetes affect African American women v.s. Caucasian women etc. or regionally


Specifically United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia... Is this just a blanket fear of Muslims? A lack of knowledge about these allies?  Or is it believed that we don't need Allies in that part of the world.  Any details about your thought process would be appreciated?

People only care about things as much as they need to care. Which means they tend to have incomplete information and make snap judgements. And, since they only have enough information to be able to think a problem through to a given point, they tend to readily accept sophisms.\n\nAt least, that explains how Bush got elected, how he could be right about allowing the port deal to go through, and how he could screw up something as simple as pointing out that Arab-owned companies already run many US ports.

Just curious about this - I see a lot of "spoiler" sites, usually done by people in Canada.  If the shows are made in the US, why does Canada get to show the shows a day ahead of the US?

It usually happens. There's a TV station in St. John's, NL, whose time zone is 90min ahead of Eastern time, that's carried all over the country via satellite, and it airs most of its prime-time programs earlier in the day, and sometimes a few days ahead.


This President has been caught on video-conference lying about his knowledge concerning the levees breaking during Katrina,he said that "when I find who leaked the info concerning the CIA, that person will be taken care of", but when it turned out to be his b-friend, he did nothing, the list goes on and on. Yet it was possible to impeach President Clinton(I know he lied under oath, but it basically boiled down to a private matter between him and his wife)Bush entered into an illegal war and put brave men and women in danger(don't even get me started concerning the BODY-ARMOUR),his administration is MOST ABSOLUTLEY CORRUPT,BEGINNING WITH BUSH, AND THE V.P IS AN EMBARASMENT(1 more who got caught in a lie), YET THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LET THIS PRESIDENT GO ON&ON WITHOUT HOLDING HIM ACCOUNTABLE IN THE PROPER FORM.Bush is making a joke out of the US, nooone looks at the U.S  the same, perhaps we should ILEGALLY WIRE-TAP B's&the V.P's OFFICE?BUSH IS BECOMMING AN 'AUTOCRAT'OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!

Because we are safer with Bush in office!!! We Need someone who is going to fight for us not give us up on a silver plater to UN AND THE WORLD!!You sound like you need to grow up and learn to see the big picture and stop speaking out of your @ss!!!!

This guy I have been seeing says he really cares about me, but he is still talking to this girl he went out with before we met, but there was nothing there.  And he is still checking out personal websites.  I feel like he just wants me for a booty call and someone to take care of him.  And he wants whatever else he can get also.  What do you think?

I think your right.  I think you need to make a stand and force him to decide if he really wants a relationship with you or not.  You need to find out so you can move forward with your life and find happiness either with him or with out him.

Ok I am not sure if this is really an etiquette questions but how many clothes do you pack for a weekend conference.  I have a friend who brings like two bags of clothes.  You’re in meeting all day and dinner at night then meetings the next day closing banquette and breakfast the next morning.

for what you describe personally I woud take 5 outfits one for each event, something to sleep in, one grungy outfit for emergencies and one spare outfit for those unexpected flying glasses of wine. then of course the appropriate hygiene items. one pair dress shoes and one pair sneakers.\n\na substitution could be a pair of dress pants that goes with two shirts, covers both meetings and lightens the load by one pair of pants.\n\nbut I don't think there is any defined ettiquette.


I need help. And I think I like this other guy to.

Haha, why do you want to tell him?\nDon't worry about guys right now.\n\nBut if you wanna tell him, just say you like him and find out what he says.  Nothing's better than being honest.

I know what you mean. It is incredibly annoying when looking through the answers to see what people have said, and then you get some stupid people that just write '2pts'... I mean, they're not even trying.  Usually, when I see people that do that, I go and see their profiles and other questions they've answered, and if they have several, I report them.\nIt's annoying, it's like they feel that's what the point of this site is, to get points... \nI say, if you don't know the answer, or are not even going to bother to try and figure it out... then don't answer at all, the point of this site is to ask questions when you truly want to find something out... and to learn what others think, and have to say about various topics and things.


If you promised your teacher you would go to a competition for her and your team. But you also promised to go to a church retreat and participate in that.\nBoth promises were made without knowing the days and then i found out tthey fall on the same day.\nSo if i dont go to school, the team will not be complete\nIf i dont go to church they will have one less group leader as an empty slot and i will let a friend down that i promised i would go with.\nSo which to choose school or church?

Sounds like you could get someone to substitute for you on the church activity, but not on the school competition.  You should explain to the group coordinator at church that you did not know of the conflict when you promised to go, and ask his or her help in finding a substitute.  It is also possible that they can make do with one less.  Perhaps the friend you promised to go with, if he/she is understanding, could substitute for you.

Who do you want palying and representing for TEAM USA?\n\nName your TOP 5 PLAYERS for each position.\n\nPoint Guard\nShooting Guard\nSmall Forward\nPower Forward\nCenter\n\nand explain why you think he deserves the starting role.

YOU CANNOT PICK STEVE NASH!!  HE IS CANADIAN!\n\n\n\nPoint Guard- Chauncey Billups. He is the whole package. He is anchoring the #1 team this year. he is consistently the top FT shooter in the NBA. His defense is superb and his nickname tells you about pressure situations : " Mr. Big Shot"\n\nShooting Guard- Dwayne Wade. He is unselfish, great player and great person. I take him over Bryant, not because of kis ball skills, but because of his team-manship. This guy is what US basketball should be.\n\nSmall Forward-  Bruce Bowen. This guy can and will shut down whoever he guards. he has proved it every year for the past 5 years that he is the games best defensive player. He doesnt get enough recognition for his defensive skills, and this Dream Team needs someone like him.\n\nPower Forward- Shawn Marion. One of the best players in the NBA. He is dominant in the low post and can hit the oputside shot. He is energetic for all 48 minutes of the game and is dominant on defense.\n\nCenter- Shaq. if he plays. Still  top 5 most feared players. Nobody in the world can be as dominant ask the Diesel.\n\nBench- \n\n1. Lebron James.  He can knock down any shot at any spot on the court. His defense has also improved greatly this year. He has developed his 3 point shot. I feel he is the next Jordan, and who ewouldnt Jordan on the team....\n\n2. Luke Ridnour- great ball handler and great player. Deserves the chance to play for his country.\n\n3. Kobe Brynt. No one like him. He has the best shot in the NBA and his defense has improved greatly this year. \n\n4. Marcus Camby- can be one of the select players who can alter the game with his energy. If hes healthy, i want him on the team\n\n5. Tim Duncan- HAsent proved himself worthy in recent Olympics, but he is still on eo fthe best US players there is.


anyone notice she gets more and more nuts as the show progresses through the evening?  I was surprised she didn't lick the table when knocked her cup over.

I think she is smoking weed or is taking zanex and drinking!\nShe nuts!\nDont leave your son alone with her!\nLOL


does he just goes for a frozen dive to get rid of the thoughts of the beautiful girl he found on a crowded place accompanied by another man and she could never be his?  \n\nDoes it make any sense -- why not follow her and ask her for her tel number if he was so struck with love at first sight?

yes that is what the video implies, he throws his shirt, coat and everything to symbolize that he is upset that he can't have her then lays everything else out nicely to say he thought about it and this is what needs to be done cause she was his soulmate and they will nevr be together, so he might as well give up\n\nthe video sucks...but that is my interpretation.\nGood song, bad video\nYou should see the rest of his videos they are all just as bad, his best his goodbye my lover, but he sings horribly, and it isn;t that great either


I wound up walking on a paved street in a hilly city nonstop for about nine hours last week (yeah, okay, I got lost, I'm an idiot.)  Anyway, by the time I actually hobbled home my knee was pretty sore, and there was a sharp pain in the centre of the sole of my foot.  Six days later, bending the knee is still painful and the foot pain remains sharp whenever I walk on it.  I'm thinking it's just a gastrocnemical strain, since the foot and knee thing happened at once.  \n\nI can't imagine it's more than simple strain that should work itself out; how long should I wait before getting it checked out?  Anyone had these two related pains before?

maybe you should go to a doctor because its not normal to have this kind of pain for 6 days in a row,, i had a lesion on both knees, and whenever i exercise too much or something, I end up having this kins of pains but for 3 day or so,, maybe the best is to go to a doctor

i have a wireless access point and a laptop with an intergrated wireless card and works great. i have another laptop that i bought a wireless usb dongle , i installed the software but it won't find the access point,,what can i do?

Some dongles will not automatically connect to available access points for legal reasons.  You must explicitly select the access point you wish to connect to via the software which came with your dongle.  Usually this is accessed by clicking on an icon in your system tray (the area by your clock) assuming Windows.


just want to know how I can get internet access on it. Any internet service I want to get you need a cd to download the internet stuff. thinking about trying cable..have cable on my other computer. Could I some how link it to that one..or is it a useless laptop. Was given to me. Dont want to just toss it out or anything because other than no cdrom drive.. still a pretty decent laptop. Could take it to computer shop to put cd rom in but trying to avoid that if I can because I have a main computer to do anything I want on. Its just nice to have that laptop just in case something happens to my computer i still will have internet access on that. Know what Im talking about?

If it has a USB port you can get (or borrow) a USB CDROM drive. If it has a floppy disc drive you can maybe get software on floppy disc for internet access. They may even make CDROM drives that can hook up to the parallel port if the laptop has one. If it has an ethernet jack, you could hook it up to your cable modem with an ethernet hub or switch really easy.


During the 8 week "boot" camp are you on total lock down or is there any periods of "down time" besides ur hours of sleep???

On Sunday you have 2 hours to go to church. If you don't go to church you clean the barracks, but it's kinda relaxed. Shoeshine time (after dinner) is when you get to relax. It's outside and you might be allowed to have a coke and you can talk freely.


anyone know anyone i can interview for a school project on elephantiasis??!

That's a tough one, all medical records are completely confidential, so finding a person will be difficult,and most people with it probably won't want to talk about it. You might see if there's a national organization associated with the disease and contact them. They would probably have a spokesperson and ,maybe even ,people available to talk to you about it or, at least, give you information.


I took the exit exam this week and thought it was pretty easy, but I know i got a few questions wrong. Does anyone know or think I will pass if I get at least 15 questions wrong on the math and english sections. \nDo we have to get a lot right, in order to pass? DO you think i will fail if I got 15 wrong on each section?

Fifteen? You'll be fine.\n\nI actually took the High School Proficiency Exam, which allows you to recieve your diploma before actual graduation. Missing 15 on THAT could potentially cause one to fail the test.\nThe CaHSEE has lower standards, and more questions, if I recall right. Chances are good, 15 wrong answers on both sections will damage your score, but not destroy it. It's up to the percent you recieve on the overall test. Below a 70%... I'm not sure.

THE PEOPLE OF WASHINGTON STATE VOTED TWICE FOR A FLAT $30.00 CAR TAB FEE, WHICH PASSED WITH GREAT NUMBERS. SO WHY DON'T THE LAW MAKERS HAVE TO STICK TO IT. YET, THE VOTERS PASSED A NO SMOKEING BAN, AND IF YOU DON'T STICK TO IT, IT'S VIOLATING THE VOTERS WISHES AND MAKING THE LAW. PLUS BE ARRESTED.IS THIS WHY PEOPLE WONDER IF VOTING IS WORTH THE TIME, WHEN YA CAN'T TRUST THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE TO RESPECT YOUR WISHES, LET ALONE YOUR RIGHTS.

it has to pass 2/3 of the law makers or it dosent work.


Nothing more, but I wnat to asking the meaning of love , what are you thinking about? please tell me and  do you in love? or not. \n But many people like this name who  love theieeeeeeee?\n\nthanks

LoL, you're asking in the computer category? The best part about that is this: I'd say at LEAST half of best computer nerds who browse this site to answer questions will have some trouble with this one, lol. I can say I do. I've been wondering whether it truly is better "to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all", I'm finding that statement to be a false one, but want to make sure it's not true, for... screw it, here's my logic:\n\n\nboolean statement = //fill in this blank when you find out;\nboolean throwSelfIntoWork = false;\n\nIF (statement==true)\n{\n   TimeWasted = CurrentTime-TimeOfBirth\n}//if\nELSE //statement==false\n{\n   System.out.println("NEVER DATE AGAIN.");\n   throwSelfIntoWork = true;\n}//else


There are still a number of sceptical scientists who don't believe the influences of mankind, such as emitting carbon dioxide into the air, are causing climate change.

The degree to which humans are effecting the climate is unclear.  There are so many variables that even the most powerful computers or networks of computers can't effectively model them all.  Even if there were computers powerful enough, the honest answer is we don't understand enough about the world around us to know how each system effects the other.\n\nLooking back further than the VERY short timespan that humans have kept climate records, we see that in the past the world has been much much colder during certain periods, but also much, much much warmer during others.  We are now in what you would call "Ice House" conditions, where we cycle between long (100,000 year) glacial periods, and relatively short interglacial (~15,000 year) periods.  Right now we're sitting 2/3rds of the way into one the interglacial periods.  The slight fluctuation that is occuring now may be related to humans, or may be part of the natural cycle.  In any event, it has occured before, when there was no more human CO2 contribution than from campfires.\n\nAll this getting colder stuff happened when the space betwen North and South America closed off, which was once what was called the "Isthmus of Panama".  Before then, times were much much hotter, and correspondingly sea levels were higher too.  This was because the water could go around the equator and exchange hot water from Pacific to Atlantic.  Now, the only seawater exchange is North-South, and around the poles, so you can imagine that this would tend to act to depress temperatures.\n\nAnyways, long story short: We don't really know.  Personally, I think we should worry less about this global warming stuff, and more about reducing air and water pollution and dealing with the increasing water shortages around the world.


Red Bull? I think it started in Austria.


I dont find time for exercising.gymming and all.I am busy from morning 7.00 till 10.00 in the evening . Suggest me a solution if you have.

If you want it bad enough, you will find the time. It would also help if you described what your typical day is like now. You just say you are "busy", but what are you busy doing?

I drink about 3 beers a night, after my kids go to sleep. Being a single parent, I drink alone. I have no urge to drink in the morning nor while my kids are still up. \nI've been doing this since separation a year ago(I'm not depressed about this) and my family is making a big deal out of it. \nI've always loved beer and it's my way of relaxing after hectic day. Is this so wrong?

Just 3 beers will NOT turn you into and alcoholic dear, but they just might present you with a slight increase in your waist's girth ! \nWhy don't you switch over to some red wine, instead ? Gives a nice, warm feeling, and is waist-friendly too !\nCheers !


Do you hate someone? \nWHO?,Why?, AND  \nDo you think its normal to hate?

No I dont hate anyone! Because I love everyone! No-I dont think it to be noraml to hate people! But, I do understand that people are so bad to others-it is hard to not get angry with them! I am sad at how bad some people will just even talk to a total stranger! What ever happened to being KIND!? Compassion!? I wish the entire world would just stop and take the time to care about others!! Think about it , one kind deed could change any number of things in a course of a day!! BYE!! BE BLESSED!!


I have 4 tatoos and I used to have my nose pierced but not anymore. Ears too, of course. I regret the 3 tats I have and have plans for them. I also want a lower back tattoo sooo bad. I just can't decide what. I know I like tribal are and want it all one color but that's about it.

I got my whole back inked, along with both 1/2 sleeves, my left-ribs from bottom of my pit to my hip.  All of them are interconnected so its one big piece.\n\nPiercings, not anymore, I use to have my labret, septum, and tongue.  Not all at the same time of course.


First of show an interest in the potential girlfriend i.e. compliment her on her clothing, jewelry, appearance, what she likes and dislikes, what she likes to do, mutual interests, etc.\nAsk her to something she has interests in. \nBe kind, considerate, and don't talk more than she does. Don't attempt to dominate her. Let her be herself and be yourself, also. \nDon't smoke, drink, and above all NO DRUGS. \nTell her yourself if you like her - don't get someone else to tell her.\nI don't know how old you are, but experience counts. \nGo for the one you think you like best first. If it doesn't work with that one, there are plenty more. \nDon't take rejection too seriously.\nKeep yourself clean and don't wear wierd clothing.

I have a toshiba Satellite laptop.  it will tell me that there is no internet connection after I've left the computer for a while.  yet, we have a dsl line that provides permanent internet connection. It must be some timing command in my laptop that shuts off connection. Any advice?  Thank you in advance.

In you control box there is a timer you will have to reset it so you will not be disconnected from the internet. But if you have a online service (like aol) you will have to take that off of your laptop first couse aol. will disconnect you from the internet.I had the same thing happen to me and I had to drop aol, and just go with my dsl.

Is it the schools, parenting, or something else that needs to change to ensure our children can succeed in life?

We do not need to do more than we are doing, Kids are succeeding in America, and in all the world, how do  we  measure success ? The fact that u can find lots of (not to the standard educated children, does not mean , that kids are not succeeding, it means, now we can only , see the poorly educated  ones..In these days,we can measure better than before, with all these way of communication, the  ability of measuring, and the interest to measure ,we start to see facts more obvious ,,this is the only different happened in the world,, If 50 years ago , we could also measure things  in the same way like now,, we will really cry , expecting our children (who are now Us) ,are losers, (compared to the success of the new generation now))\n\nthere is a difference between education and culture, and between basic education . and higher education,As for basic education , it is increasing all over the world,and what is considered basic now was (in the past) very high education, (computer, languages,math, nutrition...)\nAs for the higher education we should not mix it with basic education, Higher education means , Teaching people how to search for the information,(they do not have to have it in there mind).The way to find information , how to put a program to know what information needed, how we can get it,and how we can use it,,(information is there, in the internet and in books waiting to be picked),,this talent of getting information is increasing,also in a big way,,(this is needed to have professionals)..\n\nThen, to have a genius, we r having more geniuses everyday, more than before,A genius know the basic information, Know how to get the further information, and KNOW HOW TO APPLY ALL TOGETHER TO get new results,,\n\nIf we measure success with money, there is more money every day, there are more rich people and there will be more and more,(money in a way, a good measure,, as success in life means in away having  better conditions and easier life)\n\nCulture is different thing, generally a well educated  person will be cultured, for one reason: that in a further step of Knowing: we find all the sciences and knowledge are actually tied together, Not being a religious but being a believer (talking about me), all sciences and knowledge are from one source (God) , Any thing originated from (one) have to be one..(this is on philosophic base)...Away of God , we find always ties among all knoweldge,That means a very educated person will be cultured as he will know something about every thing...\n\nIn life we do not expect that all people succeed (according to our measures of success),  To maintain the social structure of the communities, To find people who roles  and people who clean, (SERVE OTHERS) , OR FORM GANGS AND DO CRIMES ,,all these activities are needed to balance life,and these people are maybe not succeeding according to our measures  , but they may-be living happier than u and me,,And at the end ,living happy is really the aim of success\n\nAs for the difference in morality, the difference in family ties, I will say nothing, My father almost die when I put (70's fashion cloth) and that is normal , we are afraid, of the not usual to us, which can be usual to othersa,and every generation will be unusual to the previous one  but life is going on, and all will be happy according to their definition of happieness..thanx xxx\n\nNote: In a certain age , In a certain stage ,knowing information by heart ,is not the aim of education, The aim of education is how to find Information, when u need it, this is the mistake lots of students do, concentrating in the information, not the way to get it...with time they will forget it and do not know how they can get it again


All of a sudden, I'm seeing Jesus in other colors. Is it possible that he's not white?

Who said Jesus was white?  Imagine about 2000 years ago, the Middle East, a baby born there...what color do you think it was?  OMG...Think about it people!!!  Jesus was a Jew, he was from the Mediterranean, Olive skinned!!! DUH!!!


my son is still in OSUT and he went AWOL yesterday. I havent heard from him but I want to know what can/will happen to him.

He needs to get back now.  After 30 days, a Federal Warrant is issued for his arrest.  This means he will not ever be able to get an education, get a successfull, legal job, or apply for a loan until he turns himself in, or gets caught.\n\nThese warrants can be issued much earlier under certain circumstances.  As a company commander, I was able to issue a few after 24 hours.  I was pretty aggressive about this since all of my AWOLs occured after I caught the soldiers using drugs via urinalysis.\n\nIf he does come back voluntarily, the Army may keep him in or discharge him with an "Other than honorable" discharge depending on his record while in training and the training unit's policies.  If the police drag him in, it will not be good.  He will probably go to a personell holding unit and be restricted to that building or on supervised details (like picking up garbage) until he is thrown out.\n\nBottom line is he needs to get back to the unit now.\n\nAnd as for "the king".  Are you one of the anti-coalition/anti-free Iraq terrorists killing people in Iraq?  Just wondering from all of your posts.  You seem very supportive of those who kill Americans and Iraqi civilians/police/military in post Ba'athist Iraq.


Google presented users a Business idea for advertising online. It also has a member scheme. Each member gives you 100$. Click on http://rajtechbank.tripod.com/earn.htm for more details.

Yes this is a excellent scheme. i have earned 18$ in the first day and there are 82 members under me so i am guranted to earn 8200$ from this plan. I hope to get more suggestions to earn like this from the yahoo answers column. Thanx Taran


In a car, when the fuel is gone, your car stops.  Assuming you eat a meal of quinoa, ezekiel bread, toasted with real butter, does the energy it creates stop when the food finishes digesting, or is there a carry over effect?\n\nDoes eating a whole grain type supper influence your morning energy?

There's been a lot of research that indicates that "carb loading" is worthless. If you eat carbs at dinner time, chances are your insulin will just kick in and store the excess as body fat. Your body does need carbs before/during (if prolonged) exercising to refuel glycogen stores but not right before bed.\n\nPersonally, if I eat a lot of carbs in the evening, I'll wake up tired and dehydrated. If I eat a lot of protein/fat, I'll feel a whole lot better in the morning and have a lot more energy. However -- there is a transition period. If you cut out all carbs tomorrow, you'll feel awful. Your body needs time to adjust to changes. Mine is used to protein/fat and very few carbs.\n\nI'm not sure if that really answers your question, but I hope it helps. Good or bad, our bodies are way to complex to be compared with something like fuel in a car.


I was curious as to how many rich people are on yahoo answers. when i mean rich you make over 200,000 a year

This won't end well, you're going to get countless liars on here telling you how rich they, when 9 out of 10 are kids on mommys computer.


I really like this show! But ABC has really undermined my interest by continually airing repeats that are both way out of sequence and far too frequent.\n\nHBO has a different model - run the season straight through, and the audiences are loyal. Just look at "The Sopranos" - off the air for 14 months, but hardly off of anyone's radar.\n\nWith "Lost", however, ABC is losing me - and I feel as if that network is just not respecting it's audience.\n\nDoes anyone else feel this way?\n\n(Please, no defenders of ABC on the basis of the "expense" of creating the show - they have the money, and shareholders of Disney, ABC's parent, are not served by squandering the "Lost" franchise.)

Yes, I care about Lost--have loved it from the very moment that it aired---BUT I am getting so ticked off by the reruns too. I don't watch them because I already have Season 1 on DVD and I'm afraid that at some point I'm going to forget to watch a new episode because I'm getting used to watching other things in that time slot.\n\nThey are already getting excellent ratings and reviews, so why play the sweeps game? Just air the shows!\n\nAlso, I hate the new time slot. Season 1 was at a perfect time that the whole family watched the show together. Now, airing at 9PM, it's past my daughters bedtime.\n\nI wish they would show the loyal viewers more respect by giving us our "fix" (lol) and quit trying to update all the newbies who didn't watch last year. (my two cents)


Personally i think they have because i have been looking through questions from other people that relate to govt. and they all sound brainwashed.  sure u should be proud of your country but not to an extreme.  I think that our govt. is/will take us down a path that will end badly.  I think that the United States will soon become like England in V for Vendetta.  I also agree with what V says in the movie it should be the govt. that fears its people not the people that fear its govt.

Yes of course that is what school and religion is for, I also notice that anticapitalist websites have truble staying operational while peadafile sites continue to operate! shows you what rthe priorities realy are dooesn't it. I would ad that by government I asume you really meant whoever is in a possition of control rather then the puppets most of us know about


It seems like since I started dieting, I RARELY have go to the bathroom [besides to urinate]. Is this bad for me, and what could be causing it?

When you are dieting, you must ensure that you are drinking plenty of water and eating sensible meals.  You need to keep hydrated and water is the best way to do that.  Try to drink at least 8 glasses of water daily.  Dieting puts your metabolism in a different position so you must make sure that you try your best to keep it in balance.  If the problem continues, please see your doctor.


In michigan once your 17 you are a leagal adult so, once i turn seventeen i dont abide by my parents curfew rule anymore right?

Technically, yes, but then again they're also not bound to feed you and shelter you either. Being of age means that you can fend for yourself already so as long as you're staying under their roof, eating the food that they buy, using the amenities in the house that they paid for and all that, you should show some respect and follow their rules.


I know someone who was/is a training officer at Fort Campbell in Kentucky.  I have not seen him online for a few months now and I was wondering if there was any way to track him down online and see if he has been deployed.  I would appreciate any answers someone could give.  Thanks!

You can send a letter to the base chaplin and it will get passed on to the soldier.  Or you can contact the Red Cross if it's a family emergency.


Does anyone know what quiz website allows you to make up your own questions or choose among already created questions to have friends answer about you?\n\nI'm curious what my friends think of me (looks/personality/etc), but obviously very few people are actually open enough to say these things.\n\nI'm NOT trying to trick my friends into telling me everything about me and then have it secretly send me their names or anything like that.  (That is very disrespectful)\n\nThanks

why spend so much time worrying about what your friends think of you, life moves on and so do friends so get a life and forget about what they think.Life is to short.


is there a place to get a program like they use ot the sotr to check you out or not??? and if so where could i get it???

Yeah, they got 'em at Office Depot.  They cost a pretty penny though.  Around $800 - $1,000.


I am 49 yrs old and would like to become an accountant - How can I go about this?

You did not say what your educational level is, but even if you have just a high school graduate, at the age of 49, you still have time to go to college, get your degree in accounting, and get certified as a CPA. Being an accounting is not particularly hard work physically, so you can work at this profession for at least a decade, or so.


If yes..how can a flag wave when moon has no atmosphere.

Amazing. You didn't see a fan behind that flag.


Culturally, I'm completely liberal, but economically, I don't know.\n\nI tend to libertarianism, arguing for freedom etc, but I don't know if the economic freedom won't surpress any other freedom in the long run, or if it is even a viable development model.\n\nAnybody got any good arguments about this?

Well, when you look at either system, you are placing society at the mercy of its greatest enemy---man.  Agreed, some people are ready to function in a civil setting, love and care for their fellow man, etc.  Now, when you look at it from the x-facvtor of humanity it would seem that both systems are about as good as each other---one relies on possibly evil individuals, the other relies on a possibly evil governemnt.  Me, personally, I tend more towards libertarianism, I guess it's just the pessimist in me, but I'd rather face a CEO without any caring, than a far-reaching government without caring.  And once they get all of their good ol' boys in, there's no stopping them.  Under social democracy, you have to leave the country, under libertarianism, you may have to leave your job or a city.  Oh well, as the French said, LASSIEZ FAIRE!

I don't see why you'd be troubled.  I've ordered from them before.  They also let people submit their own t-shirt designs that they in turn create and sell.


I don't think she has siblings. I think she is the only child.


He's addicted to the computer. Or maybe he's a little bored. What do you normally do? Suggest some more interesting activities. Or go somewhere else. Or invite other couples over. =D G'luck!


I was struck when I was 12 and it hurt like hell!

If somebody ilegal will get married in this monts or the next and the congress changes the rule of inmigration , is valid the married, can will deported the ilegal people who get married.

Your English isn't very clear.  I know that now if you get married, you get deported...because the U.S.A. would recognize that you were not a legal resident.\n\nThe question that you have is very hypothetical, because it depends on what the congress' new "rule of inmigration" is.

They screwed up thousands of tests then did not even score almost thirty thousand of them. Do those that were negatively affected by this mishap have any recourse? Many could have gotten into Ivy League schools but did not apply due to scores, incorrect scores.

If someone wanted to apply to an Ivy League school, or any college, they have to choose on the SAT which schools to send their answers to. The College Board automatically sends the answers to those schools then.
