when we r over at my house, and whe just sit tehre, i always aksk if she wantss something, or if i can get her anything, she just says no and sits ther an looks disappointed, i would be glad if i could do anything for her, who can help me ?

don't aggravate her by asking what's wrong a thousand times trust me on this my bf was going through the same thing with me, just hug her and tell her you love her often not just when you are about to leave her or get off the phone, tell her often and during your everyday conversation let her know out the blue that if theres ever anything she wants to talk about , you're there no matter what time it is or how petty or small she may think it is, you're always listening, there maybe times where she don't want you to say ANYTHING but just for you to be there to listen so let her know you're there tell her everyday so when the time come and she want to talk she already know that you're willing to listen


Is there a safe dye for my "hair down there"?Maybe even a hi-lite?

Yes, you can dye your hair.  You can get it shaped and dyed if you want to.  You just need to find a gentle dye and avoid getting the dye on the inside of the lips.  Maybe put a little vaseline along them to avoid getting dye where you don't want it.  Make sure you do an allergy test before you do this though.  \n\nYou might find this site amusing...  It made me laugh\n\nhttp://www.myvag.net/fur/


What i want to know is how to find the day of any given date and year???

Okay, this is not going to be pretty, but it works, but only for years from A.D. 1582 and later.\n\nFirst, let M equal the number corresponding to the chosen month according to the following list\n\nJan=11\nFeb=12\nMar=1\nApr=2\nMay=3\nJune=4\nJuly=5\nAug=6\nSep=7\nOct=8\nNov=9\nDec=10\n\nNext, let N equal the day of the month for which you are inquiring.  So if you want to look for August 15, M would be 6 and N would be 15 (M=6, N=15).\n\nNow, take the last two digits from the year you are searching for, call that number Y.  For 1947, Y=47.\n\nThe leftover digits of the year make a new number, call it C.  For 1947, after removing 47 we see that C=19.\n\nFinally, if the year is a leap year, let L=1, otherwise, let L=0.\n\nNow we're ready to get down to business.  The following formula makes use of the greatest integer function (ipart) which essentially means that if you get some number with a decimal, chop off the decimal.  3698.2461 becomes 3698.  OK?  Good.\n\nNow we must calculate the following formula:\nN + ipart(2.6M - 0.2) + Y + ipart(Y/4) + ipart(C/4) - 2C - (1 + L)*ipart(M/11)\n\nAfter calculating this number, divide it by seven and look at the remainder.  The remainder corresponds to the day of the week as follows:\n\n0=Sunday\n1=Monday\n2=Tuesday\n3=Wednesday\n4=Thursday\n5=Friday\n6=Saturday\n\nLet's test this with your August 15, 1947.\n\nSo, M=6, N=15, Y=47, C=19, and since 1947 was not a leap year, L=0.\n\nPlugging these values into the formula we get:\n15 + ipart(2.6*6 - 0.2) + 47 + ipart(47/4) + ipart(19/4) - 2*19 - (1 + 0)*ipart(6/11)\n\n=15 + ipart(15.4) + 47 + ipart(11.75) + ipart(4.75) - 38 - 1*ipart(.5454545454)\n\n=15 + 15 + 47 + 11 + 4 - 38 - 0\n\n=54\n\nDividing this by 7, we get a remainder of 5.\n\nThis says that August 15, 1947, was a Friday.


i live in romania i got 2 work places, i go out almost every night but i can't find a girlfriend, i'm not ugly (i think), girls are not attracted by me, why , please ask me, maybe you now my dilema

Its hard to say why girls are not attracted to you. It could be anything. Don't try so hard. Stop looking for a girlfriend. Try finding someone that has the same interests as you. Looking for women in bars and clubs doesn't always work. Try the internet, chats, clubs...etc.  Let them get a chance to know you as a person. Then see if can develop into something else.


Okay, I know this is not an appropriate question for this website but I'm just curious to find out if anyone can give the right answer.

Trying to take projects between PC and Mac is very difficult because the fonts don't always work with both formats...\nhelp?

Ultimately there is not an easy way to know.  By default MacOSX uses true type fonts and if you install an Adobe tool it will handle postscript fonts.  Most TT fonts will work on both unless they were incorrectly created.  Most postscript fonts will work on both, but the nature of adobe sofware is that it will save font files with no extension so they can't be transferred to PC, or they store fonts in multiple files, ie a screen font vs a printer font and when you try to copy from one platform to another you only get the screen one or only get the print one.\nSo there are also problems with the way Windows programs kern true type fonts. So while you can reuse the font usually you may have to adjust formatting in the document when it is transferred.


well im 15 and my bf is 21 and we had a baby together hes wanting to get married what should i do?

If it was me, I would wait until you're older.  It is a fact that as you grow older, you will change, your moods, your interests, your friends, your goals.\nThe father can be a father/dad whether you two are married or not.\nTry asking a question for those who have got married about your age and maybe in 20's, ask him how they felt when they were married and how they feel now.


I Believe we must scrap the whole tax system and start over with a National sales tax. Do you agree or do you have a better idea?

I am looking for people to help form a Corporation in California. How can I find people with no capital gain.  I need to start with an Artical of Incorporation but how can I do that.  What websites are available to use for FREE to help start a Corporation.  What all do you need and how many people can you use to start?

Maybe you can get people power if you offer them a profit sharing plan.  First advertise your offer and invite people to a meeting.  Than make a great presentation of your idea and how it will benefit those who join.  Emphasize how their investment now will soon benefit them.


i know it is full of antioxidants, and i'm trying to get away from soda, so just let me know if i have to drink much water in addition to the tea...thanx!

Well, the best kind of tea for you is green, I believe, but they're all caffienated. I hope green is the best. I am stocked up the keister with it Haha. But red teas like the ones out of Madagascar are really good for you as well. I am not very accustomed to their taste (pitooey), so I stick to green tea (with a dab of honey). White and black teas are the ones with the caffiene and not many antioxidants... so, theoretically, they're all mostly water and caffiene... but the green and red teas have the most antioxidants per punch than the others.

I THINK I GOT SOMETHING ABOUT TWISTED SISTER???LOL, I DUNNO


how do you  clean the virginal without thoroughly washing  the inner part.

In the vagina, there's both good and bad bacteria.  The good bacteria are there to keep the bad bacteria and germs from overgrowing and taking over.  When you douche, you wash away everything, including the good bacteria, and you disturb the natural balance of bacteria that nature has provided.  This then allows any bad germs to take over.  The inner part of the vagina also cleans itself, just by nature, so making any attempt to interfere with nature's own process is useless.  I think a doctor would tell you this same thing, since I got this information from an article in a medical journal.


I am conducting a survey for a school research project. If you are interested in participating I will need to know your age and sex along with your answers.\n\n1. Do you prefer red meat over white meat? Yes or No\n\n2. What percentage of your diet is made up of red meat?\n\n3. What percentage of your diet is made up of white meat?\n\n4. How many times a week do you eat read meat?\n\n5. How do you like your red meat prepared? (ex. rare, well...)\n\n6. Do you believe the reported health risks of eating red meat are:\na. Very risky\nb. Not risky\nc. somewhat risky\nd. don't care \n\nThanks for your support!

I like white better.\nI would say I eat the two about equal. 50/50\nI probably eat it 3-4 times per week for supper.\nI like it well-done.  I can't stand seeing blood coming out.\nI don't really care about the risks.

i need help with this riddle, i have no idea on what it means. i am hoping you could help\n\nPart of my family name means shadow \nMy home also means many of me \nGive a girl a buck, and she will be happy \nMany nice colors are not uncommon to me \n\nWhat am I ??\n\nfirst correct answer will get 10 points!

I'm pretty sure it is a Diamond. Here's my reasoning:\nDiamonds family name = carbon = black in appearance\n"Give a girl a buck" = Diamonds are a girls best friend\nMany nice colors = Refraction of light through a diamond displays many colors.....


I undrestand the charging up part, but don't know what happens when they discharge, is the circuit disconnected or does it just discharge when its full up? I'm very confused, thanks for any help!

they discharge when there is no longer anything charging them. they charge because a voltage is put across them, which causes charges to collect on opposite sides. when the voltage is removed (or short cicuited) there is nothing forcing the opposite charges to opposite sides. the capacitor discharges because opposites attract, and these opposite charges are now free to cancel each other out.


for ex: \ncin>>356; to a=3 , b=5 , c= 6;\nlike this ; maybe array?what you think?

Create a method called numDigits(long). Then you can use code something like this:\n\nint num;\ncin >> num;\n\nint numDigs = numDigits( num );\nint digits[ numDigs ];\nint temp = num;\nfor ( int i = numDigs - 1; i >= 0; i-- )\n{\n digits[ i ] = temp % 10;\n temp = (int)( temp / 10 );\n}\n\nThe digits array holds each of the digits in the number.\nThis is the code I used for numDigits():\n\nint numDigits( long num )\n{\nint digits;\nfor ( digits = 0; num > 0; digits++ )\n{\nnum /= 10;\n}\n\nreturn digits;\n}


I am having problem in my college physiology class and need help with some quizzes and homework. I was hoping to find someone willing to help me, who really knows a lot about physiology. Any ideas were to find a tutor and/or help?

I would ask one of the professors if they had a student they would recommend.  Most professors will be able to think of one that would be a good tutor, and then you just need to contact them and see if they will tutor you.  \n\nThis is very useful to do, because they will often provide names for people who have taken the class already, so they should be better equiped to help you out.

MAINSTREAM ISLAM IS A FUNDAMENTALIST WACKO FREAK SHOW. 99% OF ALL MUSLIMS ARE LITERALISTS, MEANING THAT THEY BELIEVE EVERY LETTER IN THE VIOLENT QURAN IS FROM THE VIOLENT MOON GOD ALLAH. WHY DO STUPID STUPID STUPID LEFTISTS APOLOGIZE FOR THIS WACKO RIGHT WING FREAK SHOW?

SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH AND GO SCREW YOURSELF. I CAN WRITE IN CAPS TOO Y'KNOW. AND JUST BY YOUR WAY OF JUDGING ISLAM, YOU SOUND LIKE A VIOLENT ASS-HAT. ISLAM IS NOT WHAT EVER THE HELL YOU WANT TO MAKE IT. OUR GOD IS YOUR GOD. BUT IF YOU'RE A BORN ASS-HOLE AND THAT'S ONE HELL OF A PROBLEM THERE. MAYBE YOU NEED A REALITY CHECK BEFORE POSTING STUFF. READ A BOOK AND BUY YOURSELF A LIFE. It might cost a bit tho.

He said he loved me, we had passionate sex, then he leaves me at one of his friends' house's and never comes back.  I find out that Im pregnent with his baby and he says, and I quote, "Are you 100% sure your pregnent,"  I don't think four pregnency tests could be wrong plus one from my doc's office.  Then he says after I say yes Im 100% sure I am pregnent, "Are you 100% sure that the baby is mine?"  Yes its 100% yours, I havent had sex in 10 months and your the only one I slept with in almost a year.  Then I have a miscarrige and he say I am a lieing slut bag whore who doesnt know who I am messing with.  WHAT KIND OF GUY WOULD DO THAT, COME ON NOW SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THAT GUYS ARENT THAT STUPID.

Guys aren't ALL that stupid. Unfortunately, most of the ones that are, are the same ones that lie and say they love you just to get in your pants. The ones that will stay with you, usually respect you enough to not need sex immediately (are you taking notes?), treat you like a human being, instead of a piece of meat, want (or at least agree) to meet your family, and even hold the occasional door for you. Don't get me wrong, just because he wants sex doesn't mean he's gonna leave. But if he's serious about staying with you, he can wait until you're ready. You can tell him I said so. Look for somebody that still likes you after you tell him he's going home alone.\n\nWhen you live life in the fast lane, you usually end up driving a minivan full of kids in the carpool lane...\n\nOops! missed the additional details...\n\nAsk him if he's sorry you lost the baby. Having a baby is supposed to be a happy time, married or not. Yes, the days when you had to hide your face in shame because of having a child with no marriage are long gone, so if he really loves you he should be sorry about the loss. I bet he's happy you lost the baby, and doesn't intend to make another one, ever.\n\nAnd btw, I am very sorry for your loss. My ex and I went through that together, and I can't imagine what it's like to do it alone.


I have this science report due tommorrow and i have no idea what to do!!LOL I need to come up with a problom or situation and then an invintion to help solve it!!Any ideas???

Here is the deal for you!\n\nHave you ever been sandwiched between two fat guys in an aircraft? Ever seen some one using the shoulder of the person next to him as a pillow?\n\nI have a solution for this and you can use it as your project.\n\nSimply install plastic shields  in between two passenger seats which can move up and down like the glasses of  your car windows just pressing a button . It wont take much space and is easy to install too. this will not only provide privacy but will also prevent breathing someone Else's breath or cleaning his saliva from your coat.\n\nYou quote this idea just draw a picture of two seats in an aircraft, and then draw the mechanism of the pulley by simply attaching a motor a belt and a pulley to the power source and button and you are done.\nAll the best


I was raised in a rich town with rich people and everything was perfect.  And I always wanted something else so I screw it all up.  I partied during HS.  All I cared about what love.\n\nNow im in community college, struggling for C's.  I haven't partied sense I graduated Highschool.  Live with my boyfriend I met right when school started.\n\nI see where everyone else is.  \n\nHave I ruined my life?

The good thing about life is that as long as you're living, there's time to start over.  It sounds like you're doing that.  Be patient, persevere, and go after your goals no matter what it takes.  Good luck.

Is there any way for me to make money doing this, and how do i get started?

It's just like how you learned to swim.... jump into water as soon as possible.\nThe younger you start, the better you will be. You will never start investing in stocks if you don't have confidence that you will earn profits from stocks investment. You don't need to start with BIG investments in order to learn about stocks investment. Basically, you need to be focused on one industry and get all the information about a company that you would like to have shares.\n\nGood luck..!!


Mormons belive that Michael The Ark Angel is indeed Adam of ADAM AND EVE. If anyone else has heard this please say so christians or what ever your religion may be i encourage you not to be chicken and stand up for what you know even if your a mormon tell the truth it is in your laws.

While I don't ever recall hearing this in church, it appears that it's actually a part of Mormon scripture:\n\n"And the Lord appeared unto them, and they rose up and blessed Adam, and called him Michael, the prince, the archangel."\n(Doctrine & Covenants 107:54)\n\n\nWhat's interesting about this is that in the early church it was actually taught that Adam was *God*.  This doctrine has been abandoned and is no longer recognized by the church, however...


What are ways of defining consituencies to an election, apart from geographic factors, that is, by where a voter lives?

According to Fenno, there are 4 different 'circles' of constituencies.  The first is, as you mentioned, the geographic constituency.  This is everyone who lives in a district.  The next inward circle is the election constituency.  These are the people who voted for a candidate in the general election.  A Congressmen is usually attempting to keep this constituency.  The next inward circle is the primary constituency.  This is thought of as the actual supporters of the individual candidate, not just a party or platform.  These are the people who vote for the candidate in the primary elections, and therefore are thought to support him even more.  Then there are the intimates.  These are the candidate's close friends and family who actually volunteer and work for the campaign.  I hope this is what you were looking for.

and is it true that nutra sweet is only legal because the govenrment is crooked and people are getting really sick from this stuff and it's making everyone fat?

Not only does diet coke make you fat, it also makes you sick because of the dangerous additives it contains.  Diet sodas are very toxic to our organs.\nThe chemicals put in all soda products are very addictive, which is only one of the reasons we crave them and have to keep drinking them.  They never satisfy our thirst.\nDo some research on it..the facts and truth are very scary.


i know there is a density factor involved. how is that used to get the weight per one thouand feet, and the circular mil area of a single strand of aluminum?

0.0145 diameter means Pi x 0.0145 square inches in cross section = 0.0455 square inches. Multiply this by 1000 ft (convert feet to inches by using 12000inches) gives you 546.6 cubic inches for the entire piece. The density of aluminum is\n2.70 grams per cubic centimeter, so you convert 546.6 cubic inches to cubic centimeters by multiplying by 16.387 giving a total of 8,957 grams altogether.

iwas 7 n half stone 4 yrs ago, now i no thats a bit 2 skinny but i was a dancer for 20 yrs, thats wat kept me so skinny, but i always wanted to be fatter, well i am now and i hate it. dont get me wrong i love the extra weight on my but n hips, that doesnt bother me at all, what does bother me thow is the fat on my belly i swear to god i look pregnant. im now 10st 5lb and like i said i really dont mind i just need a quick fix diet or excercise to lose the weight around my middle, if anyone has any ideas, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese help

Unfortunately you can't target fat loss, exercise and a sensible diet will help you lose the belly fat but you will also lose the fat on your hips and butt.  If you wanted a bit more shape in upper leg area then I'd recommend weight training (squats are an excellent exercise).

I have a 20 ft pontoon on a 300 acre lake.  I need a new motor big enough for a raft.  How do I go about this?

Have them start it up , listen to the engine. Look under the motor housing to see how clean it is. Look for any build up of oil anywhere on the outside of case. The most important thing that will tell you if it was ran hard and beat up is the condition of the prop.If you are trying to figure out size then just look up what it the boat is rated for, and check out similar boats with smaller or bigger motors.

contents lost in the fire. Insurance compamny omits my name from those checks, giving my girlfriend total of the finances, in which she kept for herself, leaving me with no money. What are my righs and what is there obligation to me as a named insured? I have already sent them a letter regarding this matter

if they are not responding to your letter, try having a lawyer send one on your behalf, usually things take nothing more than a letter signed by a lawyer, most will do something like that at a very low cost (lower than if they were actually doing a bunch of stuff)

Damon is no doubt a good player, but is he worth that kind of money? Seems more like they're paying him for 2 good years or so and then he'll likely decline after that. Of course its not just that the Yanks have a new CF and lead-off man, but the signing took away from the Red Sox. Doesn't look like they're missing him yet though . . .\n\nIf the Yanks win it all and Damon contributes with some heroics, then yes, it'll have been all worth it of course.


Hey i was just wondering how to break a bad habit.... Since i was about 7 i have been bighting and picking on my fingers and scabs on my hands...i have adhd and i have noticed that many people that have it (like my dad and friends) do the same thing...i would like to know how i can break this habit it and also if this is a side effect of ritalin,aderol,stratera...or if it is just because there is a strong urge to fidget...

Go into the garrage and get an electric saw and saw off your fingers and then there won't any to bite, you can start biting the sinuse of skin of your knockles instead.\n\nOr you can also put your foot in your mouth and start biting your toe-nails.\n\nAsk a psychologist about how to stop.


A Battery charger used to recharge the NiMH batteries used in a digital camera can deliver as much as 0.50 A of current to each battery.  If it takes 100. minutes to recharge one battery, how much Ni(OH)2 (in grams) is oxidized to NiO(OH)?

First you can calculate the quantity of electricity used to charge the battery using the equation:\n\nQ = It\n\nwhere\nQ = charge in Coulombs (C)\nI = current in Amps (A)\nt = time in seconds (s)\n\nIn the above question then\n\nQ = 0.5 x 100 x60 = 3,000 C\n\nNow the oxidation state of the Ni in Ni(OH)2 is 2+, while the oxidation state of Ni in NiO(OH)2 is 4+, so the change is 2+.\n\nFaraday's constant = 96,500 Cmol-1 so \nthe moles of electrons available = 3000/96500 = 0.03109 \n\nHowever, 2 moles of electrons are required to oxidise 1 mol of Ni(OH)2 therefore moles of Ni(OH)2 that can be oxidised is 0.03109/2 = 0.015545. \n\nLastly, we can now convert the moles of Ni(OH)2 to grams by multiplying by its formula mass, which is 92.708 gmol-1, ie\n0.015545 x 92.708 = 1.44 g.


The United States is trying to prevent Iran from acquiring the capacity to make nuclear weapons. This is only the most recent of its seemingly endless series of battles over the past 60 years to control which other countries have access to these weapons. In this it has failed to understand that as a nuclear-armed superpower it is as much part of the problem as part of the solution. As the Roman philosopher and statesman Seneca explained almost 2000 years ago, "Power over life and death-don't be proud of it. Whatever they fear from you, you'll be threatened with."

Yes, Seneca said that.  Interesting that you would quote him. Do you know what his point was in saying "Be careful that your enemies dont get your weapons"?  Sounds a lot like that quote is very much in support of limiting nuclear proliferation Would it be best if nobody had nukes?  In the 50 years before nuclear weapons were invented, over 100 million people were killed in wars.  And in the 60+ years since, is that true?  If the US destroyed all of it's nuclear weapons, do you seriously believe this would end the problem?  That countries like North Korea and Iran would generously quite trying to build them?  The US, along with the EU, is trying to stop other countries from building nuclear weapons.  Are you trying to say that because the US, France, and the UK, among others, have nuclear weapons, that they should not try to stop proliferation?  Are you saying that the US and those other countries should get rid of their nuclear weapons, and thus would miraculously cause everyone else to stop building them?  Think about it-the US is hated by many powerful countries.  If the US got rid of their nuclear weapons, would that tend to make those countries more eager, or less, to build a weapon that, once the US had none, could aid these other countries in actually defeating the US on a battlefield?  Think through your argument- The US having nuclear weapons may be a problem, but it is unrelated to nuclear proliferation.  And, the US is not leading the battle to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, the EU is.


I was just accepted into nursing school. An LVN program in TX. Is there any advice anyone can give me about getting through nursing school???How do I cope with work?? and bills?? Should I roomate or renta place alone?? Please help. I have heard so many horror stories and I am scared.

My one major piece of advice is to manage your time and plan ahead. Plan your week out in advance and set aside time to study and stick to that schedule. It's best to find a job that is related to nursing. Many hospitals offer tuition reimbursement if you agree to work for them once you graduate. That can help with your expenses. As for living arrangements, I would find a roommate that is also in your LVN program. Otherwise you might find it difficult to get quiet time to study if your roommate doesn't understand the pressures of nursing school. Don't be afraid to get low interest school loans to help with bills while you're in school. There are also lots of financial aid programs that not only help with tuition, but living expenses as well. Use the financial aid office at your school for more resources. You can also check with your school about jobs on campus. And don't forget to apply for every scholarship that you qualify for!


I'm just saying that they could because back in their times, science was not strong and especially psychological disorders were not scientifically known. I mean nowadays if someone said they are talking to God they would go to a mental institution! Ordinary people  would certainly know that they were crazy and no one would believe them.

What a good question! Yes I beleive that is a valid thought. nowadays they wouldn't have locked them up though, they were not dangerous, they would have medicated the lord right out of them. No one beleived them hardly and I wonder how it stuck after so many years. but that is history and who really knows except who really was there.


in september 15th 1963 how many years of public schooling did bobby cherry finish

Mr. Cherry, a former truck driver, moved to Texas in the early 1970s. He found work as a clerk, a welder and a cabdriver. He reportedly had been married five times and had 15 children.\n\nI'm not really sure how long he was in public schooling.  I didn't have time to read all of these articles, but here's some for you:\n\nhttp://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A61428-2004Nov18.html\n\nhttp://afroamhistory.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.al.com/specialreport/%3Fbombing/97%2Dcherry1.html


if there was a company in your area that provided extremely beautiful women for any occasion, would you ever consider using it?  NOT for sex or stripping, i'm not a pimp and i don't want to run a call girl service.  i'm talking about anything from possible food service to just being hired guests to liven the atmosphere, or any idea brought up by a client that i would find acceptable for my employees.

Are you saying that if someone wanted to "rent" a chick for an hour, day, or week they would just have to give your company a call?\n\nWell who are going to protect the women after they leave your presence?  Who is gonna prevent them men/women who rent from taking advantage.\n\nThe idea is okay cause sometimes I want to rent a guy to take out the trash and clean up dog poo.\n\nBut if you send the women out you'll have to send someone else to protect them.\n\nI think that men would jump all over this, but most (not all) would assume that something sexual was going to happen, that's the downfall in this idea.\n\nI hope it works out for you.


My own eye moves to the side all the time on its own and I can't get it to focus straight. It is now starting to really bother me although it has been like this my entire life. I am just wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to fix this problem so I can get this eye to focus correctly.

Yes, there is an operation in which they detach and reattach the muscles that move the eye. It is a very simple and quite common procedure, however you may have a type of lazy eye that is more akin to epilepsy and this is brought on by stress or fatigue. The operation is probably covered by most health insurance.

A family wants to have a $2000,000 college fund for their children at the end of 20 years.  What contributions must be made at the end of each quarter if their investment pays 7.6%, compounded quarterly?

You can get a rough but quick estimate by halving the time, calculating the sum+interest and dividing the result by number of quarters. That is x(1+10*0.076)*80=2000000\nor, x= 14200 (approx)


he likes me for 1 year and i dont know why he is not asking me out because my cousin is his cousin but im not related to him.

Hint,...hint,...hint!!! If Mohamad want come to the mountain, then Mohamad must go to him. Its the year 2000, rules have been ruled out,....everything goes. Ask him out. I have been told by my sons that when they get asked out, they are pretty impressed! So what do you have to loose? Nothing! Go for it!!!:)


ok this is a random question, i know. but i really wanna start learning to play the electric guitar. im only 14 yea, but it's good to start at an early age. the only problem is that my parents complain that since i cant even keep up with playing piano and cello, theres no way i would stick to playing electric guitar. and they also have that stereotype in mind of course. if i start electric guitar, well, drugs, and stuff come to their minds. lol. but i just want to convince them enough. i will stick to it!! but i cant seem to persuade them...someone help!!!

How about an electric bass?  That's not too far removed from the Cello, so you could probably pick it up easily.  Things you learn on one would transfer to the other.  \n\nGet good on the bass, then pick up a guitar.

OK, most of you whom I've spoken to say that if Jesus WERE married, this would not lessen him.  So, why are so many Christians offended by the theory, and by The Da Vinci Code in which the characters assume this theory is fact?\n\nPLEASE Don't bother telling me the book is ficticous, I'm well aware of what parts of the book are true, what's assumed, and what's false.  But there IS enough evidence to support the THEORY...why is this offensive?

The answer to your question is actually very simple:\n\nThe idea presented in the "DaVinci Code" about Jesus, if accepted as the truth, will fully destroy the very core of the Christianity -- the Divinity of Jesus.\n\nSince Christianity based the faith upon that, Jesus is Divine as the Son of God as well as Unique; Jesus cannot be a normal human being.  Also, Christianity stated that, Jesus was crucified, died and then resurrected from death; the "DaVinci Code" offered the idea that, Jesus was just a normal human being who eventually died a natural death after surviving the crucifixion.\n\nThink about it, such a grave concept to consider, even shall it be a mere fiction, upon the minds of all Christians.  Their very own faith is attacked in a way which they do not know how to respond, but this is NOT the first time...centuries ago, a few sects of christians were burnt alive for this very belief.\n\nA fiction is a fiction, but this fiction has crossed the line so to speak.  Also, because the "DaVinci Code" is a fiction based on some historical and theorical facts, people will and do starting to ask "what-if" questions: and if one of those "what-if" questions is proven true...Christianity will start to be destroyed piece-by-piece.


Like most people, I think some Canadian laws are just unfair. Take for example the ones redefining marriage, GST, business, immigration, etc.\nThe laws are made by elected representatives of the people.\nSo, they represent the interest of the people. Sometimes , we may think they are either unfair, bad or  just annoying- depending on how we feel. We have a right of redress at the court or we may just vote out our representatives during elections.


We are married for only 10 months but my husband is no more the same person whom i married...?\nWe are married for 10months but it seems my husband lost interest on me. He has a typical fantasy. He wants to see me as a hore! He doesnt want to have sex regularly. He claims that he loves me. He wants too see me having sex or something like that with another guy! Is it normal? Do you guys know someone like my husband? He only likes to masterbet by seeing some sexy navels only..is something missing? I want to be happy with my hubby..how can i?

I've heard about those kinds of fantasies, but it's really pretty sick.  If he truly loves you why would he want to share you?

my bestfriend has all the sudden stopped hanging out with me. i'm kind of new to the town and she was one of my 1ts friends. i've been expanding my circle of friends and i thinks thats why but i'm not sure. should i say something?

Make sure you tell her you deserve an explanation for her distance. This is important. You have the right to know why she no longer wishes to be a part of your life. Just pull her to the side nicely or if you can catch her alone even better and just be like, "Hey, I've noticed you've been distant lately, is there anything wrong...did I do something to upset you?" Then if she doesn't wanna talk or explain herself, tell her "I deserve an explanation and I'll only try this once if your gonna give me the cold shoulder. I care about you enough to address the situation, but if you don't wanna be my friend anymore, at least have the decency to inform me like a woman". After this. just do what's in your heart. Go your separate ways and look into other options in friends. Someone is out there in the same boat as you and you'll find a new BFF soon. Good Luck!

If we were all vaccinated when we were babies, why is there a breakout of mumps in Iowa right now?  It's spreading, and I'm moving to Iowa for the summer.  Do I need to be re-vaccinated?

You need at least 2 doses of the vaccine. If your shot record doesn't show 2, I would go get an MMR just to be safe. The people contracting it are those that are not immunized. A good lesson for those parents that think immunizations are not necessary or are harmful.


I want to send SMS to an email address. What hardware/software do I need on my computer to be able to send the SMS. Also do I need SIM card? And do I need a service plan from one of the cell phone network providers? In specific, what is the hardward called that I need? Many thanks in advance!

You can't send a SMS to an email address. Even if you could do that, since you are already on a computer and have the email address, why don't you send an email? \n\nYou can send SMSes to mobile phones from a computer, though. Most of them aren't free, or require you to have a subscription with a mobile operator. Go to http://mobile.yahoo.com, there are instructions on how to do it.


im a college student and work out at our rec center 3 times a week but due to my schedule it is hard for me to go more often. i have time to workout between classes but not to shower and such, so i dont. are there any exercises that i could do in my room that wont make me sweat between classes?

Well, lifting weights can be good...The more muscle mass you have, the more calories you'll burn while not working out.  Don't forget that your legs are the biggest pieces of muscle on your body and are used very often for even the simple act of standing.\n\nAny exercise you do will add up to calories burned at the end of the day.  So, even if you just take 10 extra minutes and walk up and down a set of stairs, you'll be better off.\n\nIt's probably a good time to do a few crunches.  Leg lifts and push ups are probably good options also.

Ah karma. Nice thought, doesn't hold up in experimentation. It's kind of like that buttered toast falling butter side down thing. We think it always does but if you test objectively its 50/50. Life is ran through our personal filter, we see it one way because we want to, but if you look at objectively its not always that way. That's why there are happy rich people who are jerks and good poor folks starving in this world. Life isn't fair no matter how much we want it to be.


Or do you think he will stay at OU to graduate?

The kid is hard... he goes pro and is a top 10 pick.  Think about it this way...if someone offered you $10MM to do something you were going to be doing anyway, would you stay and do it for free or take the money.  He can always take night classes to earn his degree if he wants it!

How do you go about talking to someone who was not raised in the church about your beliefs?  How do you explain to them about being saved?  What are the topics you should bring up first?

You don't "get" a non-believer to become a believer - that implies you want control of his mind, lending credence to the idea of brainwashing. Instead, you calmly present your opinions (*IF* asked for them), and you have the courtesy and respect for the "non-believer" that you'd wish him to have of you, and allow him to make up his *own* mind *without* any undue outside pressure to "see the truth."


any body know what makes it stop,i dont wanna throw up...

You'll feel better if you do throw it up.  Drink water with electrolytes (i.e. vitamin water, smart water, etc) to rehydrate.  Have tums and crackers to calm your stomach.\n\nBut most importantly, if you are still experiencing vomiting and/or diarrhea problems after 24 hours, GO TO THE HOSPITAL.  Losing fluids quickly can be very serious, at times fatal!\n\nHope you feel better soon.


I'm talking about things like $500 toilet seats, $700 pens...things like that.  I realize that we elect these people, but they all seem to get greedy once they're in office.

We stop giving them the money.  I'd be less concerned with the $500 wastes and more worried about the $90 billion wastes.\n\nAnd believe me, they're plenty greedy before they get into office.  They're projected to spend $1 billion on ads for the midterms.  That means there is a lot of corporate money flowing to them and in return there will be a lot of corporate-friendly bills passed next session.


what do you do when you want to have sex and your boyfriend wants to have sex but wants to still wait till marriage?

I completely understand your dilemma. I'm in it myself. The situation gets more complicated though when you ask "what is sex?" "Do we not want to do the things that resemble sex?" "Is it actual intercourse we're avoiding?" You need to know where the line needs to be drawn.\n\nI'm curious... how old are you two? If you're in your teens, I would say just hold off on everything. Most likely (not to be negative, but just realistic) you're not going to make it until marriage, and in the future, I guarantee that you will regret the decisions that you will make in this relationship if you are that young. However, if you're in your 20s and you two are seriously considering marriage, I would go back to the previous question - "Where do you want to draw the line?" Ask your bf that. Remember though, once small barriers are broken, in time bigger ones will fall. If you two are really trying to avoid sex, you need to avoid the steps that lead to it. It doesn't sound as fun, but waiting is also fun too - honestly - you just have to make it fun when it doesn't seem that way. It's an impressive thing to do.\n\nIn addition to all that, I also think it is extremely important to respect your bf's opinion. I think as a good girlfriend that should be the first concern of yours.\n\nGood luck!


wasn't it great to see lehman save that penalty after that dive. imagine that; a player from a spanish team diving! barcelona will win tho.

How do I step up a business to accept credit cards? Thru our website and manually?\n\nI’m in South Africa.\nIs there another secure way of receiving payments that I could consider?

There are a number of ways to go about accepting credit cards.\nThe first step would be setting up a website to showcase  what you want to sell.\nSecondly sign up for a secure server certificate from Verisign/Thawte\nThen sign up with a payment gateway like paypal(paypal provides services only to accredited companies and NOT individuals in SA) you will get a customised payment link and nstructions to link your site securely with theirs.\nNow you need to set up a 'secure shopping cart' for your customers to select and checkout items.\n\nThe payment providers usually credit your accoount monthly with the proceeds of the sale.\n\nyou will need to prove the following to obtain the digital certificates\n\n§ The  certificate is being  issued to the correct Company.\n§ The company owns the Internet Domain Name in the request.\n§ The Company is registered in one or more countries.\n§ The registered Company Name is the same as the name on the Certificate Request.


I am not sure if it has to  do with having hard water but if anyone knows what I need to do to get the water clear please let me know...thank you.

You need to add chlorine and all kinds of pills to the water.  Go to Wal-Mart, They have everything to care for pools.  It is a lot of work to keep the water clear but it is very nice to be able to enjoy it.


Ok, so I'm with this guy for a really long time but we broke up and forgave him afterwards for being such a jerk. He swears true love to me and says he worships me but a day after he says he can't deal with this relationship. What should I think?

Well The same thing happened 2 me and well I had 2 find out from my best friend that he was cheating on me. Its better to not know why then for when u do because it only causes more heartache. I should know. Plus IF he broke up with you  then he doesnt really love you. He probally cheated on you and likes that girl better. Guys are jerks... Go to your real friends Chicks before Dicks sweety :) \nTake care

A few of my boyfriends friends have cheated on their longtime girlfriends. I don't know if it's a regular occurance or if it's only happened a few times. They are really good guys to hang around with and are close friends with my boyfriend. But I just dont' trust them now. What is the likely hood of my man following suit and doing the same? I know when a group of guys get together, they drink too much, lose track of time and can be totally stupid. But is it common that if a few guys do it, it's sort of made it acceptable for all guys within that group?

Well, Ma'am, ask yourself a question....Do you trust your boyfriend to be sane and sober all the time?First off, a practise is certainly not always acceptable to a guy, even if his peers are also doing it...in that case, we guys would all be doing doope, smoking,drinking and in short being entirely antisocial.But we aren't,are we?Do not worry,Ma'am....even if boys drink, they do stupid things, yes...embarrasing thing,yes...but hurtful things, no.

or game clips and stuff like that  its 4 my i tunes plz tell me

The problem with iTunes and the iPod video is that it will ONLY play mpeg-4 video.  Who has that laying around on their internet site?  Pretty much no one..\n\nWhat I would highly recommend is to bite the bullet and spend $30 for QuickTime Pro (you need a license code).  What this program will do is allow you to convert ANY video to this mpeg-4 format.  The best feature, and this one's my favorite, is QuickTime Pro enables right click, so now you can right-click and save any mpeg on the internet to your hard drive, just like saving a picture from a web site.\n\nhttp://www.apple.com/quicktime/win.html\n\nSo, in the end, it's a little investment for a WHOLE LOT of music videos or game clips....

I don't know college players at all, but I do know the Raiders need a lot of needs. So, who do you think they'll pick up in the first round or you can predict every round.\n\nI believe our biggest need is definitely on defense. Of course the Raiders offensive line didn't hold up well last year which surprised me---although a lot of injuries on the 'O'. Aaron Brooks is going to be a better fit for the Raiders than the media claims. That's why i'm asking ya'll this question because you know how the media is with our team.\n\nI feel this is the top three areas of concern right now if the Raiders signed no more or lost no more players;\n\n1. Linebacker (Outside,middle or inside)\n\n2. Safety (We haven't had a great safety in years & years--of course Rod Woodson converted did an excellent job)\n\n3. Kicker ( I in no way whatsoever want Al to select a 1st round pick on a kicker, but it's time to admit that SeaBass is no good-- The Raiders screwed up totally by letting Joe Nedney go for S.J.)

Raiders re-signed ( S ) Jarrod Cooper --- A special teams standout, Cooper will get a chance to play strong safety because safety Renaldo Hill went to Dolphins.\n\nSling Shot--- arm Aaron Brooks off course we all no this which at first they was looking at Joey Harrington but took Brooks over him good choice.\n\nDont A.J Hank looks like a Raider wishfull thinking on my part another dream is since Seahanks is stalling on getting another contact signed with Mike Holmgren he just my be up for grabs because since he is not GM anymore they dont what to pay him his 7 million contact and is entering his last year fire AL and hire a Super Bowl Coach but like i said thats just a dream but let me come back to reality.\n\n Defense = CB Ryans from Alabama or CB Jimmy Williams from Virginia Tech  both are projected to be in the top 10 on draft day April 29 \n\nGood Linebacker = D'Qwell Jackson -- Maryland\n\nIf the offensive line gives Brooks protection he will pick apart any team we play. Some good drafts choices and the Raiders our headed this year to the playoffs i predict and may have to give myself a good kick in the rear.

The one thing a spider is afriad of is attack form overhead (primarily wasps looking to lay eggs) You could see if your spider is more of less likely to treact to different colours/shapes suspended overhead.  Or even how it would react to a mirror.


What is the most studied MTOC in a mammalian cell and what is its main function. This is easy bio-nerds! Who wants 10 points?!

This is a hard one.  I would say it would be the centrosome.  This is the structure from which originate the microtubules that make up the mitotic spindle during mitosis.  At the end of mitosis and cytokinesis the cell has one centrosome; during interphase the one is replicated so that there are two, which will migrate to opposite poles of the cell at the beginning of mitosis.  Microtubules will then assemble, anchoring themselves to the centrioles within the centrosomes as they extend to attach to the pairs of sister chromatids or to meet each other in the middle.  The main function of this MTOC is to participate in cell division.\n\nThe existence and function of this MTOC is something of a mystery, since plant cells do not have them and manage to carry out cell division without them.  Animal cells from which the centrosomes have been removed can also replicate successfully.


http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060410/ap_on_re_us/immigration_protests\n\nRemember, we are talking about illegal immigration here! I cut and pasted a quote from the above article.\n\nIf we don't protest they'll never hear us," said Oscar Cruz, 23, a construction worker who marched among the estimated 50,000 in San Diego. Cruz, who came illegally to the U.S. in 2003, said he had feared a crackdown but felt emboldened by the large marches across the country in recent weeks.\n\nWHO is going to say this guy has a constitutional right?

I agree with you - no illegal immigrant has the "right" to do anything but to be returned to his/her own country. It disgusts me when people compare our ancestors who immigrated here legally with these people who care nothing of our laws, and so have no problem breaking them to enter.  We have immigration policies (they need to be enforced), and people can enter this country through an already established procedure. We should not be made to feel ashamed because we ask others to obey the same laws that every American is asked to obey!

i think this came out in the 1990s, and these are not films that  are religious in nature, though do have common themes between them and the catholic faith. I know that the film: Life is Beautiful, is on this list as well as one about a doctor who came out with the facts about the chemicals in cigarrettes(cant remember the name).

Penis 4inch long, Slightly obese person. When I try to have sex my penis slips out & not able to penetrate. what can I do? after few tries I lose interest??

try doing it doggy . or if your on top put her legs over your shoulders. or she could get on top. there are lots of positions you could try. buy a karma sutra for more ideas.


any ideas on what materials to use that are easy to obtain (playdoh doesn't work well) and also i chose channel proteins to make another model of-----but my bio teacher says I need to specify the type of channel protein I am doing---which one is the simplest in structure and function and any ideas where i can get info on it?? please help!

Here is the one I recently made:\n\nTake a transparency sheet and take ear buds (used for over head projectors)- lots of them. Dip the top of cotton part, of a bunch of ear buds, in glue and place them vertically on the transparent sheet. Go on doing this to make a square tightly filled with ear buds.  Note: you will have to give support to the ear buds until they are glued completely. \n\nNow you can apply the glue on the other side of ear buds and place another transparent sheet. Paint the central region of the ear bud-sticks with black colour. If required, cover the sides. It now looks like a square piece taken from a region in the plasma membrane.\n\nThe cotton ends now look like the hydrophobic layers on either end while the central region looks like the hydrophilic ends of phospholipids. If you want to elaborate, you can include proteins in the bilayer! You can use colour papers, ribbons etc (you can stiffen them by dipping in some glue and drying in the shape you want; I have also seen hair-bands available that form specific ion-channel like structures. Goodluck!


Sweety there are miracles in our lives every day. Every mourning you wake up and you're alive, your house did not catch fire throughout the night, or wasn't invaded by thugs...you can open your eyes and see the sunlight, or even have the ability to move your body and think voluntarily those are miracles? Imagine how many peple in the hospital right now wishing they were living the miracle of your ordinary life...


I don't know where to start on this one: \n"Write a program that prompts the user to input an integer and then outputs both the individual digits of the number and the sum of the digits.  For example, it should output the individual digits of 3456 as 3 4 5 6, or 8030 as 8 0 3 0, or 2345536 as 2 3 4 5 5 3 6 or -2345 as 2 3 4 5"  \nCan somebody  help me?

the simple program given above if fine.. in terms of the conncept.. but there's a bug... \nthe problem is with looping.. coz when u enter a number such as 80301  or 55302 ( a no. having 0 in between), the loop breaks at the point when zero is encountered.\n\n so the output in the first eg. is  8 0 ,sum= 8 (instead of correct 8 0 3 0 1 , sum=12\n\n\nso the logic of handling the number is absolutely correct but the looping is a comparatively difficult job in this case!


This is for my finance Folks. I need some help on figuring out where I should keep my money. I have three possible savings accounts which I can keep my money. All have different interest rates and i need to know which is the best.\n\nBank A - \n.33% interest a month\n\nBank B - \n1.25% interest a quarter\n\nBank C - \n3.3% Annual Percentage Yield (APY)\n(i don't really know why apy is different)\n\nIs there a way to break each of these down to to a per month basis like Wachovia. I'm pretty sure it's not as simple as multiplying or dividing the percentage since it's compounding. \nWhich bank is best and why?

Bank B is better no matter how it's compounded.


i cant girl that is my age, but i cant get a girl that is 10 years older tham me im 18now,,, i just wonder what should i do to get a girl that is same age as me

for one thing, you don't "get a girl." you earn her trust and love her. maybe that's why you can't "get" one.


My girlfriends have always complained that I have a tendency of being cryptic. I always imagined that I was expressing myself fully and being disarmingly charming, like kryptonite. Don't girls like the romantic "I'll write you a song" type?

yes!!! write me a song, but only once in a while.  don't be too dramatic or to pressed (obsessive).  girls like romantic with a touch of thugishness (roughness).  "i know my man is sensitive enough to write me a song about how he feels about me, wild enough to not be afraid of heights, and tough enough to protect me when in harms way"


Will I pass my drug test? I used someone elses urine, but it wasn't enough, so i added my own?\nThe last time I smoked weed was 3 days ago and I took the test today. I used my sister's pee but i needed 60 ml and it wasn't enough. I didn't put a lot of mine in there, just enough to make it to the line. I would say it was about 90% - 10% YES I KNOW IF I WANTED TO PASS THE TEST I SHOULD HAVE JUST NOT DONE DRUGS, BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT I DID AND IT'S ONLY WEED WHICH IS NO WHERE NEAR AS BAD TO YOUR HEALTH AS ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO, WHICH I DON'T USE. is there a certain amount which they have to detect for it to be a positive? can they tell that it is mixed? If it does come back positive, how likely is my employer to let me retest? What should i do? This is my first real job out of college and my first drug test so i am clueless!!! \n\nAdditional Details\n\nApr 28, 2006 at 4:00 pm\nWeed is not worse than alcohol or tobacco, you cannot die from it. \nToo much alcohol=death\ntoo much nicotine= death\ntoo much weed= sleep and munchies

It doesn't take much to test positive.  The stuff can show up in urine up to 30 days later.  The more often you use the higher the level builds.  It seems like the pot is already destroying your brains ability to think.  Hope you fail and learn a lessen.

I don't think there is a 'correct' answer to this question so the way you spelled it is just fine! I mean it is not a real word just something out of Mary Poppins.


i am so tired of hearing people ask about weight loss. they are just trying to get in shape for the summer. well that should be done earlier; no that should be done all the time! i worked my butt off to be cut up and now im just sick of hearing fatasses tryin to get a lose-weight-fast solution. sorry, that aint gonna happen. being fit is suposta be a way of life, not something you try to squeeze in before the summer. is anyone with me, is anybody else sick of this crap?

Not everyone is looking for a quick fix. I'm fat and looking to change my life now.  I need motivation and hearing from others is a good way to start.  These ppl do have the wrong idea thinking they can lose weight quickly but you shouldn't put them down. Instead you should give them advice since you exercise regularly and understand what it is to have a balanced diet.  Don't pity us but don't put us down either.


what is the best exercise method to get that area at least flat its like soo annoyin when i where topz

You have to work on your six pack. Lay on your back, bend your knees and put your arms behind your neck. Try to get up. When you get up till your chest touches your knees, all your stomach muscels will be streched. If you just want to work on the six pack (that area below the breasts) don't get up all the way.

current daily use: 5 x 100 ml bottles. each 5ml has 15 mg of codeine. Hooked on it on and off since age 17. current age 36. quit for two yrs straight then fell off the wagon hard.

Wow, you might want to seek out a good therapist...someone who can talk to you, something must be lingering under the surface for you to use at such a young age and get hooked. And stay hooked! Maybe get yourself an excercise partner? I think you need a supporitive person in your life, to help you through this.


I know Leviticus says no tattoos, but it also says a woman is unclean for 7 days after her period, and no mixed linens for clothing shall be worn etc etc.  Isnt that still under the old covenant before Jesus died for our sins?  So now theres no more sacrificing just repentance, right?

Dont live you life according to a book, live it however you feel!


After liking a girl for 6 years, she finnaly decides to give me her number.  The 6 years that has gone by before that day was always cold, and well quite depressing.  We never really talked at all before the phone number thing,  and afterwards we i call her occasionally.  I was invited over her house numerous times, and of course i went every time.  \n\nShe lives a really stressfull life and i try my best to make her.. well not stress. Of coarse i want her to always be happy,  but there are alot of things stopping me\n\nRecently she told me her dad didnt want me over anymore.  I found out from her brother that i was the first guy that she really braught home,  And we stopped calling eachother,  just every now and then.\n\n( She says its her cell phone bill )  And yeah, mine was just as high.  )\n\nAnd apart from that, she acts like its impossible for me to be with her, when im acting really sweet.  She even told me "she can never be attatched to anyone"\n\nYou think shes lying?

get rid of her and find someone that will appreciate you for what you do

I've been hearing about water therapy for sometime now and recently got an email explaining how to do it and what the potential benefits of it are. \n\nFor example it says that the thingies that create red blood cells in ur bodies get cleaned by this water so ur immune system strengthens. According to it this is how u do it- When u get up in the morning before u do anything else (even before rinsing ur mouth with water or brushing ur teeth) u drink 1.5 litres of normal water in under 2 minutes. Then u dont eat or take any fluids for at least one hour. \n\nOk it took me 2 weeks to be able to to get to 2 litres but i did it in the end. Then for abt 2 weeks more ive been doing it. \n\nThen recently I came across another article in a Mag that says drinking too much water can be toxic.\n\nNow I only drink one big glass in the morning.\n\nA friend of mine who just passed outta medical school said he never heard of water therapy and advised me against it.\n\nAnyway is water therapy for real?

What you have been given is a snipet of how to use water therapeutically and this snipet of info does not explain correctly. "Water Therapy" is another load of rubbish that someone is making money from that has no results to back it up. these sorts of things give Natural Therapies a bad name and I am dead against them.\nIt is great to drink 2 LT of water...Daily,  not in 2 hours! That is not good for you. I bet you pissed a lot!! LOL!\nYou should not drink water before, during or immediately after a meal as it dilutes the digestive juices and makes digestion harder thus creating energy problems.\n\nWater is not toxic unless it contains toxins already.\n\nLarger intakes of water are suggested therapeutically by Naturopaths etc for aiding in detoxification programmes, but this is under supervision and for short periods only, not for prolonged periods. When I say larger, still not 2 Lt in 2 hours!\n\nIf you want to know about Natural healthcare then see your local Naturopath and get real advise my friend and save yourself the hassles.\n\nHope this has helped you.\n\nCraig - Naturopath.

Kapag nasa labas ako ng school, ang mga bagay na madalas kong ginagawa ay ang pagbabasa ng mga articles tungkol sa Science and Health at ang pagbrowse sa internet related sa aking course. Pag free time ko, nanonood ako ng mga educational shows tulad ng Discovery Channel at National Geographic. badminton ang sports na nilalaro ko at pumupunta rin ako ng gym . Naglalaro din ako ng boardgames tulad ng scrabble. Ang mga responsibilidad na ginagampanan ko sa aming tahanan ay ang pagasikaso sa dalawa kong nakababatang kapatid at pinsan

I am getting bored of all the belief-bashing and name-calling going on, whether it's anti-muslim, -christian, -atheist.\nI enjoy debate about religion and faith but ultimately, I doubt I'm going to change my mind and I doubt others would do the same. It made me wonder - if you could, would you stop someone believing what they believe?

Not forcibly, no, but I reserve the right to both disagree with their beliefs and try to change their minds on certain things (not that this usually does any good.)  For example, I think I'm perfectly justified in thinking that fundamentalist Muslims are dead wrong in thinking that we are the Great Satan.  I wish with all my heart that they didn't feel that way, and if they're willing to listen, I'd do anything in my power to try to convince them that they're wrong.  However, I grant them the right to think that we're the Great Satan and to try to convice me that my beliefs are wrong.  \n\nI understand what you're saying, and I agree that it's usually a moot point to try to change people's personal beliefs...Discussion and healthy debate is great, but all participants have to be willing to be a part of the debate.    Like in just about all other situations these days, people need to stop both making bigger debates personal and stop taking everything personally.  If anyone figures out how to do this, let me know.


I love a girl and she told our love to her father and i have spoke to him 3 times and he is not accepting. I even told him that we had sex b4 and still he is telling that he will take this issue to his relation. If their relations accepts he will accept else he will not coz we two belongs to different caste. Iam a typical man who never think my life with other girl. I had sex with her in thought that she is my wife. For the past 45 days they r not letting her out and i do know where is she currently. They r also not giving any ph calls to her. She is 23 and iam 25. She told to her frd that she will not ran away with me and she waits till her father does mariage to us else she will not marry other. But her fath told that he will tell the result in the month of May. But as far as i heard from a frd she told that he will not do marriage for us. Iam ready to take this issue even to media coz i love her that much and i need her. She hasn't made any cals still now. PLS let me know what 2 do

Hey... If her father does not accept you.. or her... or both of you... Then there really is not anything you can do... If ya'll love each other than that should be enough... You make his daughter happy... and that is all that should count.. She may hurt her father by going against his will.. But... Love is more important than Obediance.

What do you drink instead of water?  If you drink soda and other high-calorie drink, you can consume a lot of calories in a small amount of time.  A lot of people don't think about the calories in the things they drink.

My son has reflux that does not seem to be getting any better.  He is going for a GI track next week.  What does that include?  What are they looking for?

An upper gastrointestinal (UGI) series examines the upper and middle portions of the gastrointestinal tract (intestines) using contrast material, fluoroscopy, and X-ray. Before the test, you will swallow liquid barium (barium contrast material) and water. The barium is often combined with gas-producing crystals. Your doctor then tracks the progress of the barium through your esophagus, stomach, and first part of the small intestine (duodenum) using fluoroscopy connected to a video monitor. Several X-ray pictures are usually taken at different times and from different directions.\n\nThe short answer is they will most likley feed him some formula and then put him on a lil x-ray bed and take a few pictures.  You won't be in the room but you will be behind a transparent lead glass(to protect you from exess x-ray) and will be able to see your child at all times.


How could i found out if he likes me or not?

ask his azz if he like you are not!!!sh!t...


i think chris will win it becuase he seems to have the best voice out of the guys ad there is a better chance of the guys winning since there is 4 guys and 3 girls right now.    \n  p.s. you must explain if you want to be qualified for the best answer award just as i did here.

I absolutely agree with you. Tonight's episode all three judges (even Simon believe it or not. lol.), said that Chris was great!! Elliott, Ace and Taylor are also both outrageous singers but Chris has never been in the final 3 and Elliott, Ace and Taylor all have been. If a girl were to win I would say Katherine. The rest of the girls had been in the bottom 3 but Katherine has only been there once.


I was so hurt by my father who raised me! I could not trust! I caused financial harm to this world and it's people! I did not know I could trust even God!

He guided me into his arms with his love and grace! I could sing of his love forever! I watched little Girl's hold their dad's hand's on the beach as the scary waves crashed against their feet and the little girl's look up at their daddys happy face until they were able to kick there feet in the waves with all the faith in the world because thir daddy was there to protect them they can be in this world happily again!Like I can becase I got god to hold my hand!

People are saying that being here illegally is a crime.  Then again doesn't the pledge of alligence state that liberty and justice for all. well i have no idea what is happening. is it true that the border patrol is going to start taking people back. cuz i have a friend and well i just can't let that happen. so if you know anything about whats going on please tell me or e-mail me mendegirl@sbcglobal.net  i really don't know if to believe the news or not. they're all saying diffrent things!

yes being here illegally is a crime. like u have a point on "just and liberty for all" but you dont always have to come here illegally. its not like people are going around searching to take someone back to mexico but if the police or watever find out they may send you back or just fine you BIG TIME


I live in an appartment building and have a main air-contition water drainage line running beside be appartment. The pipe recently broke and has caused extensive water damage. Is that water hazardous to our health? (I have a 6 month old daughter).

The water draining from an air conditioner is generally just plain old water.  The water comes from moisture in the air that condenses when it hits the cold coils in the air conditioner.  The moisture condenses on the coils and collects in the drain pan.  The water itself should not be dangerous.  However, if the water has been leaking for an extended period of time, you may want to check the area for mold (or have it professionally tested).  Some people are very sensitive to mold spores and can suffer allergic reactions.\n\nIf this was a recent, one-time leak, you should not have any issues with mold.  Just make sure that any wet sheetrock or carpet is thoroughly dried.  You can use a dehumidifier and/or box fans for this.  Also, cleaning the wall or hard floors with a dilute solution of bleach will help prevent any mold formation.  \n\nMake sure you have that area well ventilated (open windows) while cleaning with bleach.  I would not use bleach on the carpet for obvious reasons, but a steam cleaner may be a good idea.  Just make sure to dry everything thoroughly when cleaning is complete.\n\nThe drain line was probably clogged by a buildup of slime that is common in A/C drain lines.  Th line can be cleared by flushing the line with a hose to blow out any clogs.  Then pour some bleach through the line to clear up any slime buildup.  Make sure the line is still connected to the drain (not broken) when you flush or treat with bleach.  Otherwise, you may end up with more water on the floor.

i have been in my current relationship for about 5 yrs now, and although it's had its good points its had a lot of bad points. He can be lovely, but also can be mean, moody, and he has lashed out once or twice. the other night i went out with friends and i ended up at one of my freinds houses, and we talked, and he sed he liked me, but we were both drunk. i like him, and we kissed, but there is sum1 else he likes to. i don't know if he really likes me or was just drunk. help? what should i do?

First, break up with your abusive boyfriend.  Then also realize that your other 'friend' just was just totally drunk and trying to get laid.  There are lots of guys out there.  Go out with one of them but not the two you've mentioned.


if the second wife comes and fight with the first wife saying that the first wife is not suitable for the husband what should the wife do ?

obviously the first wife wasn't suitable. because if she was y'all wouldn't had got a divorce... so the first wife is right.. but the second wife could be jealous or envious of the history you have with the first wife... that happens...just tell them to cut it out.. and act like adults... and go on with your life with your present wife... okay.


I'm 11, 5"5 like 150 pounds, im just starting to go through puberty. Thanks.

No, and I really don't think you should try dieting of any sorts.  You still have growth spurts coming, which will help even everything out.\n\nBy the time you are done growing, abour 19, everything will have balanced itself out.  If you are dieting, you may be depriving yourself of enough calories, vitamins and minerals for these growth spurts, which means you might not get to be as tall as you would be if you weren't dieting.\n\nThis is why teenage boys are so hungry all the time, they need the food for their growth spurts.


I need some pictures of what they thought the land looked like during the Cretaceous.  The only ones I can find are strat layers over what Alaska looks like now.  I also need to find a couple sources about paleoclimate and paleolatitude during the Cretaceous.  I'm writing a paper and doing a presentation of Colville River dinosaurs during this time period and need to establish what their environment was doing.  Pretty neat creatures those Artic dinosaurs... had to live in cold weather and darkness part of the year.


A girl asked me about whether I planned on getting married right out of college. She also asked whether one of my close friends that was a friend was looking to get married. I get the impression that she wishes I would ask her out, but then she says she is going to get a degree and fulfill her life dream in her career. She also talks about other girls around her are desperate to get married and she is not, and she says other guys she knows like her are really jerks. What the heck is she trying to tell me when she talks about this? Are they hints or small talk? Please HELP ME!!!

Instead of focussing on the fact that she's mentioned marriage, ask her where she sees herself in five years.  I think alot of young women feel pressures from family and soceity to be the "full package", where they have a family and their dream career.  Maybe she's just trying to get a guy's point of view about getting married at a young age.  Let her tell you about what she wants out of life, and if it happens to include marriage in a few years, don't freak out!  If you're interested in the girl, ask her out and see how things go.  I think it would be weird to start a relationship with someone if you didn't think that sometime down the road you may want to spend your lives together.  Unless you're looking for a fling, most people go into a relationship hoping that things will work out for the long run, which eventually means marriage for some people.  The bottom line, talk to her and let her tell you how she really feels about getting married young.

Is it just a "bad thing happened" standard? Something bad happened that we cant explain otherwise, therefore it must be Satan.\n\nHow can we distinguish Satans act from God's acts. If the US economy is hurt, then its not Shaytans work, but ALLAH's punishment. Some people even claimed that the New Orleans flood was God's punishment. Maybe God and Satan joined forces on New Orleans cause Im sure Satan didnt want to be left out from that kinda misery.\n\n\n"Its the work of the devil"; "Shaytan is behind the spread of this virus"

James 1:13 When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.” For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone.\n\nSince that scripture is clear. It is impossible for god to try anyone with evil. We can see that the evil and bad things that happen are from Satan the devil not god.


there are so many religions where I live and christmas is always referred to as "winter holiday" or anything other than christmas, although (orginally) the us was a christian nation.

Yeah, it probably should be called Christmas vacation.  But those who are Jewish & those who celebrate Kwanzaa also have their holiday's around that time, so it COULD go either way.\n\n"Happy non-denominational religion-derived possible-holiday winter break."


Yes, I am a mortgage broker also, you are not committed to him unless this is a purchase and you dont have much time left.


the details are that the person has to be an education person and it has to be somebody in the pass and in the todays education person.

If it doesn't have to be somebody famous, how about interviewing one of your own teachers for the "present" part?\n\nA past educator with a GREAT story was Helen Keller.  I don't remember the whole story, but she was born blind and deaf.  She had a teacher who worked with her (I think her name was Annie Sullivan), and then later she became a teacher herself - - INCREDIBLE!!\n\nGood luck!


If you are sued for a charged off credit card how long can they hold the account open ,and how long does a judgement stay on your credit report?

Yes.  What the company that charged off the credit card did, was to sell your contract (account) to the collection agency/attorney that is calling you.  They can take you to court and sue for a judgment against you.  If you own a house they can put a lien on it. They can also demand $35 a week (or the sum the judge says) until the debt is payed off. Or, attach your wages.\n\nYou do have rights regarding their right to call.  You could call your State Attorney General to find out your rights.  (I know, after a while you want to disconnect the phone and except calls from no one.  I found it very depressing.)\n\nThe best thing is to eventually negotiate a settlement with them.  I think it is better to do this before it goes to judgment.  Also, Stay up with the court procedures.  As soon as you get served go to the Court house and fill out the form "Appearance".  I think if you look like a fighter they will be more willing to negotiate to a lower settlement.\n\nI got a lot of help from:\n\nwww.creditinfocenter.com\n\nGood luck!


I just met this girl online, and we are going out tomarrow. I live in Phoenix, AZ so theres no beach or anything... and I don't want to do a traditional movie and dinner.

Well maybe you could cook for her, invite her over to your house, lit some candles or something romantic. GO pick her up and bring her back to your house with some wine or something. After you finish eating maybe you two could just cuddle up on the couch and watch your favorite show or just talk.


I''m a senior citizen who enjoys dining out but have few\nchances because my few remaining friends are eitther too\nphysically challenged or their limited funds keep them from\nparticipating.  Can I go alone without feeling out of place?

Sure its ok, take it from a restaurant waiter, some of my regular customers were senior citizens and I was glad to see them there. Just enjoy your meal, dont feel out of place.
