I suffer from Insomnia, Ive tried having a milky drink and bath before bed, but it doesnt help, i keep my room cool, dont eat too late. Have any one any alternative therapy rememdies I havent tried?

I feel your pain!\nHere are some things that have worked for me-\nTry doing the same routine every night before you go to sleep- do a few yoga streches, take a shower and have a cup of tea (I recommend chamomile mango- Bigelow I think...) and THEN climb into bed.  \nTry an eye pillow- it blocks out the light and keeps you from staring around at you furniture while you curse yourself for not being asleep already :)\nTry doing some sort of exercise during the day- it makes you more tired- like running up and down some steps a few times.\nTry to go to sleep and get up at the same time each day.  I know it sounds nuts- who want to get up at seven on a weekend!?  But it seems to help me- it gives your body a schedule.\nTry not to do work on your bed- that way you can associate your bed with sleep adn relaxation only.  \nIf you're lying there for over 30 minutes, try getting up and walking around.  Go sit in the living room and just chill- no TV though.\nIf you're worrying about something- school. work, life- sit in your living room or somewhere other that your bedroom and let yourself think about it and obsess about it for maybe 20 minutes- whatever.  Maybe try to work out a solution.  And then say to yourself, ok! I'm done thinking about that- mean it! and then climb into bed.\nGOOD LUCK!!! I'm not saying that these always always always work for me but they're worth a try.\nZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.......... :)


I LOVE THE EAGLES!!!\nall except for owens!!!!! EWWWWWWW!!!!1 a**hole

E - A - G - L - E - S\nEAGLES!\n\n\nWhy, yes, I do love them.


the same reason you are,lol u feelin me =)


If you could change one thing your partner do/don't do during love making?

I wish he could last longer than 3 minutes.


but after 3 days i recieve email that i have to pay for it i was shock, i try to call costumer service but no answer, i delete movie pass using system restore so far no pop up, do i have to call them and cancel movie pass or let it go, im i obligated to pay them im afraid they aregoing to show up again im i legaly responsible,we have multiple account in 1 com im afraid they going to enter the other account what should i do, should i call a lawyer, pls help me, i didnt give any credit card bec i have non but im calling them to cancel my account if they demand payment should i pay them pls help me

This one could be a little bit tricky.\n\nIf you downloaded the program yourself you will have agreed to the Terms Of Service which state that you will be charged a monthly or annual subscription until you cancel.\n\nThere are 2 ways to cancel - one os to go to the webpage but unfortunately the web address they supply is wrong and the other is to phone customer services and cancel that way.  But it seems the number they publish is also wrong.\n\nI've managed to find the number for Moviepass Customer Services and I've phoned it several times and got through without problems, it's a US number 866 431-7720.\n\nYou'll need to tell them your Customer ID number and I hope you made a note of it before running System Restore.  If you haven't got your ID number they'll refuse point-blank to assist.\n\nThe good thing is that they don't have any credit card details so that's going to make it hard for them to get payment.  I'm also guessing they don't have your name or address (don't let them have any of these details).\n\nIn the vast majority of cases Moviepass surupticiously installs itslef on a users computer.  Of over 10,000 people who've been to my website about removing Moviepass you're only the 3rd I've come across that chose to download it.\n\nYou can get more info about Moviepass and the (alleged) way they work from here... http://profend.com/answers/moviepass


Can a hornet be classified as an insect? Why or why not?

If it has 6 jointed legs,\nthree distinct body sections,\na single pair of antennae,\ncompound and simple eyes, then yes.I think it is, but I'm not positive.


For now,I can speak chinese and english....but i still wanna learn more languages. Could you tell me which I can learn?\nIn fact,I prefer Indina and Spanish,but my friends told me Franch and Japanese will be more better...is it right?

It depends if you want to make money with the language or not.  There are many Indian languages not just one. So choosing one may be hard.  Urdu and Hindi are almost the same so I would start there.  And there are many Indians in the US so there is a market for interperitors if you can become fluent. Right now the biggest market for interpertors is in Arabic due to the political situation.  But Spanish is an easy language to learn and very similar to French.  You could learn Spanish and then pick up french in no time because they are so similar.  My husband knows french I know Spanish and most of the time I can understand him.


Yes.  But most churches will give you one just for stopping by.


i'm really into this girl but i don't think she feels the same way. how can i find out for sure? i don't want to make a fool of myself and i don't want to break off our friendship either but i have to know.  i have the feeling if she doesn't feel the same way it's going to make things weird between the two of us, what should i do?   oh yeah and she has a boyfriend, but he's a jackass!

If you value her friendship, then you need to put her needs ahead of your own desires. If she has a boyfriend, then you need to let her figure out what a jackass he is on her own. Interfering with her existing relationship to get her for yourself would be selfish, and something of a betrayal of her trust on your part. Besides, when she does figure it out... and she will... then she will be able to appreciate your friendship all the more for the support you are able to offer her when the times comes for that. The best relationships grow out of the best friendships.

The CD by Kyuss. Why are the instruments so distorted and loud? Don't get me wrong, I like it. Just wondering.

Firstly, you need to be able to play your instruments well.\nSecondly, to get that sound, one need only apply some\ntype of sound changing device. A common way to change a \nguitar sound is using a stomp box. There are different kinds.\nDistortion pedal is used to dirty up the sound. Compression\nis used to add "punch" to your guitar so it can be heard \nthrough the mix of other instruments. Delay devices can \nadd "shimmer" or "echo" type effects. These can also be\ndone by computer programs. And who can resist the "wah"\nsound of a pedal? I don't know exactly what they use, but\nthis is a good guess perhaps.

what do you think of tv evangelists who claim events like hurricane katrina and the asian tsunami were punishments by god for people who had sinned p.s. no bible quotes please

I don't think that it is up to them to judge whether or not they were punishments given by God.  It may or may not have been a punishment, but only God knows whether or not they were, and that is not for other people to judge.  I don't think that the TV evangelists should pass such judgement against those who had to endure those devastating events.  Instead of passing judgement, they should be encouraging others to help in the humanitarian relief of those who are suffering.

For example, personal ones?, funny ones? old worn out emails that have been passed around since dinosaurs lived? They have about 70 >>>>> forwards! Clever new ones with jokes? Religious ones? ( I don't really like those, or the ones that "threaten you, if you don't forward them to 10 people!) Emails that don't check out with Urban Legends, etc.\nHow about the mushy, gushy friend emails? \nMe...I love the really good, new jokes, that make me look funny when I forward them!!! ;~)

I love the funny emails with the funny pics.  I don't really like anything that is very long.  I too hate the ones that threaten you if you don't forward them.  I never saw the surprise I was supposed to see on my screen after I forwarded the email to so many people.


Yes sleep is important but I end up sleeping for 12- 15 hrs a day....isn't that too much?? I can't get my butt off the bed....plz ...without any pills n stuff..how can i stay awake or atleast get up early?

Suggestions:\n\n1. Get a dog that barks early every morning.\n2. Get one of those alarm clocks that has wheels and runs away from you when you get up to shut it off.\n3. Drink LOTS of water before going to bed so you MUST get up in the morning to go pee. Then jump in the tub before you have a chance to go back to bed.\n\nHope this helps!!! ; )


I was really friends with this girl called Sofia when I lived in  the U.S.A, now I moved to Mozambique and she changed her email, phone number, house everything...

I am terrified of flying and have tried Xanax with no effect whatsoever.  My Dr. prescribed a 15 day supply of Valium for me to use when I go on vacation at the end of the month.  I've never taken Valium and would like to know what to expect.  Feedback would be appreciated!  Thanks!

Valium is definitely stronger than Xanax, but I'm not sure it'll really work any better than drinking a bottle of champagne. Everyone is different on every drug. \n\nI recommend taking it one day when you don't have anywhere else to be and just seeing how it reacts with your system first. The stress of your fear will make it vary on the day of the actual plane trip, but at least you'll have an idea.\n\nP.S. Definitely do not take Valium and vodka as someone recommended. Alcohol and Valium make a very bad combination and could cause heart failure or extensive liver damage, neither of which is worth it. (Yes, people do it every day and live, but it's not worth the risk.)

School is driving me crazy. At the begginging I wanted to and was driven to get straight A's. Now I dont care. I'm just keeping upi with school to get financial aid next semester. Any tips.

Karen,\nAs a university instructor, the advice I give students in your position is to TAKE A SEMESTER OFF!!  There's no timeline in life where formal education is concerned and in\norder to get the best life has to offer you have to remember that: a) most learning takes place outside of the\nclassroom and b) learning is a lifelong endeavor.\nTake some time to really think about what you want to do.\nIf you continue along this vein, you're really just spinning your wheels, wasting your time and money, and will\nend up with a career that's not suited to you at all.\nStep away from college for awhile.  Flip burgers, travel,\njoin Americorps....anything that gives you some time to\nfind your real joy and goals in life.


1) The Gospels teach that Jesus appeared to the disciples after his resurrection. We are unclear, however, whether those appearances took place in Jerusalem or in the Galilee (or at both locales). According to our reading, the Galilean accounts seem to rule out prior Jerusalem appearances. Where did Jesus actually appear? If he appeared in Jerusalem, how should we read the Galilean accounts?\n\n(2) I find the genealogy of Jesus provided by the Gospels confusing. Who was Jesus’ paternal grandfather? (We notice that Matthew says that his grandfather was Jacob, but Luke says it was Heli). Also, we notice that Matthew declares that Jesus was separated from King David by only twenty-eight generations, but Luke’s list shows a forty-three generation separation. What does this contradiction mean?\n\nany answers???

#2 first.  There are contradictions in the two genealogies.  Thus it would be a mistake to take them as an accurate historical record.  Think of them instead in terms of what the Gospel writer is trying to accomplish.  Both are trying to show Jesus' place in the history of salvation, moreso than in chronological history.\n#1 this one requires faith.  It is well known that the Resurrection accounts are not consistent in the usual sense of time and space.  Depending on how we read them there may have been 40 days between the Resurrection and the Ascension, or both may have happened on the same day.  Well, which one is it?  The answer is BOTH!  Jesus is risen in a glorified, physical body.  In some ways he is subject to the normal laws of the physical world.  He can be touched.  He eats.  He walks.  In other ways he is not subject to normal laws.  He passes through locked doors.  He disappears before the eyes of the two men at Emmaeus.  Most striking, he seems to be present in the upper room with the apostles at the same time (or at least very close to it) as he is with the disciples in Emmaeus, 8 miles away.  The Risen Christ is not subjec to time and space.  He can be in two places at once.  Think about it in modern terms.  We say that Christ is with us.  Wherever two or three are gathered in his name.  That means that he is all over the world, simultaneously.  There are twos and threes all over the world gathered in his name and he is with all of them.  At the same time we say that he is seated at the right hand of the Father.  He is in heaven and on earth at the same time and all over the earth at the same time.


But you have to admit they do deserved to win the superbowl the kicked whooped the bengals, colts, and broncos, and they been cheated alot in the pass i think it was fair decision and with all that hard work they deserved the win their 5th straight superbowl i mean I'm a die hard steeler fan and you figure coming from Pittsburgh its not like New York the Steelers and Pitt Basketball is all we got to make the city happy and there are more steelers fans all over the the country and all over the world compared to most nfl teams they are the team of the 70's and the shocker team of 2005 just give me your opinion if dont like them don't like them but hey coming from 2 loses to the patriots in 2 previous afc championship games we deserve holla peace.

How do they not deserve it? Of course they do. They won and thats all that matters. The only people who deserve to win are the ones who do. They went in as a last seed and beat every team that they faced on the road. I cant think of a single thing that makes them undeserving of a championship.\n\nBy the way, im not a Steelers fan, i just cant believe that anyone could think they didnt deserve to win the superbowl.


I like the idea....it's good pub for the tour, good experience for the kid.....it's what you would call a "win win" situation....except of course for the mom....

Soo here it is, i have a bf of 2 yrs, he is in medical school and barely has time for me, i can ONLY talk to him for 50 mins a day and see him once a week for 4 hours... ive tried talking to him, over and over again but it doesnt seem to be working, im tired of it!! What should i do?

It sounds like your relationship is really not much of a relationship since you get to spend very little time together.  Unfortunately he is working towards a profession where this schedule problem will probably be an issue for a long time to come.  If you can't deal with it then it is time to get out and move on.


I thought I had made a big mistake by getting married and 4 months after our wedding, on my birthday, I went out with my exboyfriend to celebrate... we kissed. as time went on, my husband and I resolved alot of issues and got to know eachotehr better. Now I am very happy and would NEVER think about cheating. should I tell him?

If you feel the need to confess, find a priest!  It is wonderful that you feel guilty over a kiss, that means that you do really love your husband.  If you were going to tell him, the time has passed.  Now that the relationship is moving forward, keep it moving.  Cut off all ties with the ex bf and use this as a learning experience.  If the ex bf brings it up, tell your husband that the ex is jealous of your happiness.  Also, delete this question from your account so your husband doesn't find it!


my cat bit my leg and i was bleeding alittle so i cleaned it and put neosporin on is that it or something missing? I hope no rabies shots!

I was just wondering if this goes both ways or if it is just men that have an obsession with younger members of the opposite sex

It goes both ways... look at demi moore, cameron diaz,madonna and soooo many other actresses.they r all dating younger men.i think they do tht coz tht makes them feel younger. i dont think age matters in love.im specially attracted to really older guys they must be like 10, 11 yrs older than me. i  think they r really mature n sexy ;)


You might expand on why you think that word is the one you use the most and the same as the one you luv...

The word I think I use most frequently is 'rather' and I think I use it the most because I pride myself on being able to effectively communicate my points and there's always a slightly better way to say it- unfortunately, my mouth sometimes gets ahead of my brain and I end up having to say 'rather'...\nMy favorite word is 'mo-mo', pronounced 'moe-moe'-- yes, it's of the made up variety but it's unusually versitile. It's a clean and 'rather' unoffensive way of expressing anger or bewilderment at someone else's extreme stuipidity. I like to use it when I'm driving; i.e. "What are you DOING?? You freaking MO-MO!"- see what I mean? It works 'rather' well!

It is hard to find grants to start a business -- for both disabled and those who are not. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. \n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.


In today's economy, sometimes it's hard to find a job. If you think I should get a job, give it to me. So far I haven't been able to find one so don't call me a bum you prejudiced *^&%^%&$^@@&*s!!!!!!!!!!!

You may not care, but there is an answer to your question:\n\nThe attitude you complain about is often called the "Christian work ethic," although it is not limited to Christians today by any means.\n\nIt is deeply imbedded in the culture of Western civilization, not just in America.\n\nSt Benedict (the founder of the Benedictine monastical order in the late 5th/early 6th century A.D.) is largely responsible.\n\nWorld Civilizations, Vol. 1, Ninth Edition, page 272:\n\n"Whereas the highest goal for ancient philosophers and aristocrats was to have enough leisure time for unimpeded contemplation, St. Benedict wanted his monks to always keep busy, for he believed that 'idleness is the enemy of the soul.' "\n\n"With Benedictine support, this idea would become one of the most distinctive traits of Western culture."\n\nI don't think you are a bum.  I am sorry that others are calling you one or treating you like one.  I am also sorry you can't find a job given that you are looking for one.  Perhaps you can broaden your job search to include jobs that you have not considered before now.

When bees go a bit mental in Autumn (that's "fall" for you Americans) it's because they're drunk from the rotting, therefore fermenting, flowers and not because they know they are going to die. Is this true?

Bees and wasps can become drunk off of fermenting flower nectar and even more so from fallen fruit that is turning to alcohol, but those are usually just temporary conditions.\n\nAs wasp nests have been growing all summer, there are more and more workers and foragers available.  The wasps that used to be the main foragers for the hive get demoted to guard duty.  These wasps are old, and beginning to fall apart.  They tend to be very cranky, and have little to lose, and so are much more aggressive and territorial than the guards were earlier in the season.  With the back-up of a larger hive, it makes an encounter with a wasp nest much more dangerous late in the season.\n\nSo it's not so much that they know they're going to die, just that they're old, cranky, starting to fall apart, and pissed off cuz they've been demoted.  If they also happen to get drunk off fruit or rotten flowers, they might be mean drunks too.


I'v been backpacking for a year and couldnt resist having a great time. My folks are quite understanding (at the moment)and am not the most skilled of chaps so I'm getting a little wound up by it.

Ok, I have been datin my bf for about 18 mos. We were fightin & we took a wk break. My friend admitted he likes me & during da break he tried to kiss me. I didnt return it, said i felt guilty and left. He knos Im back w/my bf, and last night he txted me sayin me he thinks he is gay. Texts:\n\nMe: Why do u think ur gay?\nHim: Everytime i like a girl they never like me and u really helped me w/that\nMe:What do u mean? u had sex with 5 girls\nHim: No i gave up bc i dont have ne luck & after not bein able 2 have nething with u\nMe: Well if u really r gay, u should thank me 4 helpin u realize\nHim: No, its ur fault u helped me take it to the next level\n\nHe keeps saying "well its your fault", and I asked if he wanted 2 date my gay friend and he said "no i think i like brandon (his friend)". I told him I always thought he was kinda gay, and he kept asking "why?" I never thought he was, I just wanted 2 c wat he would say. Is he really gay or tryin 2 lay a guilt trip? Would a guy really sink this low?

He is probaly not gay, but it sounds as if he is giving up in life. If he has had feelings for girls, he still can. He just hasn't had luck in a relationship.


It seems that, for some reason, a lot of very religous people vote for republicians. My running theory is because Republicians tend to stick with the Christian views on "moral" issues.\n\nI want to know why these people would vote for one political party over another, just because of that one view point?\n(I am not a Left winger, and I am not attacking any group either, just curious)

You need to look at the religious issues that each side accepts as it's moral grounding. Republicans usually stand on a platform built on values that include Pro-Life, and the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman. There are many other issues to be concerned with, but these are the majors. \nDemocrats generally believe the opposite and go with a more liberal approach to abortion and Pro-Choice is their platform. Also, the take on the gay marriage is usually widely accepted with the Democrat community.\nIf you are looking for a "side" to stand on, I suggest that you do some serious research and decide for yourself which you prefer. I don't know anyone that agrees with everything that their party does, and just because the current President is a Republican, don't let the things that you've read on this site skew your beliefs. You have a choice to believe what you want. Choose wisely.\n\nAnd just a side note......Vote Republican, those Democrats are morons.


If I do on-line dating, where do I take my date to on-line? Afterwards do we have cyber-sex? Is this virtual dating?

you have 2 options when it comes to online-dating.  it's either you will meet her in person after you get to know her or you will just stay as her online lover and won't meet her personally.  the latter is a little unusal.\n\nppl who have online lovers chat with them on messenger and play games on yahoo or msn or other game sites and send e-mails each other. \nit's a virtual date. \nyou don't have a lot of options when you date on the net.  just take her to a game room such as pool or poker and have fun.


Just asking because I am newly married (going into my third year) and still very happy with my spouse and seeming to get happier but it still scares me when I hear about the rate of divorce in north america and I'm concerned that something might change my marriage somehow in time. In the past before I was married, I was with boyfriends whom I sensed weren't right for me but tried really hard to make it work anyways, but with my husband I have a sense and a good feeling that he is very compatible with me and that we will be together until we die, but if you were divorced, did you feel this way at one point too? when did it change and why? Thanks

You are both very fortunate in your happines.  Dont worry about what the world is doing.  Because it sounds like you BOTH are doing everything right.  Continue to love, respect, communicate and enjoy each other.  It takes 2 to make a marriage and a home.  I simply made a poor choice, and the problems erupted early on.\nSome of us dont get it right the first time.

i only guess that when they clean the tanning bed that i have a reaction with it

Actually the major symptom of tanning bed burn is itching.  It could also be a sun rash or a rash from the tanning bed cleaner.

Sure, I remember sniglets. They were done by Rich Hall, who was a regular on HBO's Not (Necessarily) the News. I watched that show all the time and sniglets were my favorite part.

Thanks for the memories...\n\nOh, I remembered one more! Hozone: the mysterious place where socks that disappear from the laundry go.

I heard that a meteorite found here on Earth, was from Mars. How can that be?

If an asteroid hits mars, debris is shot up and is sometimes fast enough to escape Mars' gravity. If these rocks get into Earth's orbit, there's a chance that Earth can run into these.\n\nCooldude, please edit your post and give me credit for your first paragraph.


I don't have a problem with it - and in this day in time I find it difficult that some people still do have issues about it! Why don't they just get over it already?

I see absolutely nothing wrong with it...i am a white woman and i am very open-minded. i have dated black, white, whatever. it all depends on the type of person u r looking for. i'd rather be with a black man that loves me than a white man that beats me, or vise versa.....


To set up a currency TRIANGLE ARBITRAGE transaction what procedure would i set up through a bank ( it would'nt be through a forex broker)? Checks, Money Orders (denominated and converted in multiple currencies)? My major USA bank does not deal in speculative investing?

Triangular arbitrage today is often done by computer programs by the big players, so I really don't think there's going to be much opportunity in it.  Plus, you have to think there's going to be a transaction cost each time, which will really eat up your profits unless you're doing serious $ trading.  If you are set on doing currency trading, you can try http://www.forex.com


My 4 year old niece is hospitalized with hematuria.  She has been sick for the last 2 -3 weeks and doctors are unable to treat her successfully.  We want to get specialized help asap.


have perpendicular bisectors, have congruent diagonals, have bisecting diagonals.

Of you're only talking about quadrilaterals then it comes down to squares and rectangles.


Maybe something herbal liquid or pill form.

You might try taking iron, it'll increase the number of red blood cells you have, and it's the red blood cells that carry oxygen to the rest of your body, but taking too much can cause problems so, I'd be careful about how much you take.


What does it stand for? What are the main responsibilities for you as a muslim? And please explain to me why women have to hide themselves from the rest of the world because that is the hardest thing for me as a modern, sexual, free woman to understand.

Hello! As a Muslim Woman, the core of Islam is to believe in One God, and that the Prophet Mohammed is His Messanger. That being said, we also believe in the prophets that came before him (ex: Jesus, Abraham, Moses etc...) There are 5 pillars of Islam, ie, five duties one has to accomplish within our lifetime..\n1. Prayer: it is our duty to pray five times a day, each prayer takes several minutes and it is in this way we thank God for our blessings...\n2. Zakat: this means charity, it is our duty to help the poor\n3. Fasting during the month of Ramadhan: abstaning from food from sunrise to sunset. This increases an understanding towards the poor, as well as develops stamina, willpower, etc..\n4. Hajj: Every Muslim must make a pilgramage to Mecca once in a lifetime\n5. Belief in One God and the Prophet Mohammed as His last Messanger...\nHaving said that, Islam also strongly advocates modesty. It is for this reason that many interpret women covering their hair as an example of this. It is believed that if we move away from focus on external looks (which you must admit, take up alot of time!) then we are better prepared to focus on worship etc.. Also, sex before marriage is considered a sin (as it is in Christianity), and it is believed that covering up helps to avoid it. Men are also required to dress modestly.\nI would like to add that only the head should be covered.. This business of covering up the entire face (if you have seen what was shown in Afghanistan) is not required in Islam! there is a confusion between SOCIAL and RELIGIOUS requirements. Additionally, I must add that I myself dont wear a headscarf because I believe that I can be modest in other ways, i dont see it as the most important thing in my religion. Completing the five pillars is the most important, the rest is just an aid to accomplish it. Hope this helps to clear it up.. :)


I have a plan that will greatly increase the stability, security, and reliability of our network. I have the knowledge and skills to implement it. However, I am fairly low on the "totem-pole" and because of that, I am seen as not having any skills beyond those of my job.  Everyone else is either unable to do it, or considers it a low priority.\n\nHow do I convince my superiors that I can do this?

What superiors really care about is how much it will cost and or will it save the company time/money.  You need to create a formal presentation, Powerpoint will work.  Present all the issues, and the potential issues if software is not kept current.  Also outline the resources that are neccessary to maintain this kind of network and how it would be improved if all software was current.  Lastly, you need to show them a cost justification for the software.  Show them how much time and money it would cost them to have someone physically update all that software and compare it against the price of this software package.


I like a girl, and she likes another guy. She says "I can't get him and if I can't get him and I go out with you, It would be worse for me."

you can do nuthing if a girl has given her heart to someone else but wait for her to change her decision on her own. in teh mean time what you could do is to be nice to her, be a good friend and in your own way take care of her not infringing upon her space or privacy. be true to her, and for god's sake dont build up things to break her away from teh guy she loves or matter may get worse. be a good person that i believe you are, and all shall be good. even then if she does'nt turn around to you, trust me, someone far better than her is awaiting you in her life.\n\nP.S. just look around yourself and see to it that you are not treating someone as you are being treated by this girl?


My friend is in the military. He's in afghanistan right now and I was wanting to surprise him and send him something. What are som good ideas, what will I be allowed to send him?

My husband loved when I would send him Gatorade.  He also liked trail mix.  Pictures are alway nice too.  If he smokes, send him cigarrettes.  Although I hated that my husband used to smoke, I knew he needed those cigs.  Also, chewing gum, for the times he couldn't smoke.\n\nI also sent things that weren't supposed to be sent...like "adult" mags.  \n\nHave fun putting together the package :)


i got what they mean and do but i need to know what is the same about the two so i can get a good grade on this.

it is sound. one is pleasant to listen to, one is not


The injury was work related.  Since my return, the injury has become worse and I am being faced with a demotion.  My employer knew that I did not have a drs. release.  At the time of injury, it was not treated as work related, but the dr is saying that it actually is work related.

not only can you collect workmans comp, your employer could get into a lot of trouble for knowingly letting you work without the doctors approval!!!!!


I am a beginning volleyball player and am having tons of trouble with my serve. I just can't seem to get it over the net!

i'm not very good at underhand serving so i could offer a little tips on the overhand serve.  r u a male or female? \n \n1) don't use ur fist to overhand serve.  that might seem easier to give the power but that's not good cuz u can't control ur serve.\n\n2) a good friend of mine who plays very well always says to keep ur fingers close when serving.  that gives a good floater (a ball that has no spins causing a floating action that could drift off the direction sometimes) if done correctly.  but for me, i like it w/ my hand wide open.  if u get used to and good at it, u can also serve floaters w/ hand wide opened.  so that i guess it's up to u, whichever u feel more comfortable with.\n\n3) toss the ball in front of u, not rite above ur head or behind.  tossing is very important actually.  no need to toss too high.  grab the ball w/ ur serving hand and extend up, just slightly in front of u, but parallel to ur serving shoulder, that should be that point where u hit the ball.\n\n4) do not bend ur elbow.  at the point where u contact with the ball, ur arm should be straight, reaching for it. (pretty much the highest point of ur swing)  u r not hitting it rite by ur ears.\n\n5) follow thru ur arm swing.  some ppl stop rite after hitting the ball w/o following thru.  that might work, but follow thru will give more power.\n\n6) snap ur wrist.  that doesn't mean to hit the ball down.  ur wrist should be snapping down along w/ ur follow thru, that will give the ball a nice projectile.  some ppl snap it hard enough to give a lot of spin on the ball.  but please, don't break ur wrist!\n\nif u r male, u should hav enough arm strength the serve the ball over, so what u need to concentrate on is how ur palm contact the ball. also depend on ur height.  if u r really tall, u don't wanna hit too bottom of the ball to give a high serve.  (unless u mean to do it.)  if u r shorter, then hit it more bottom.  i'm guess between the horizon line to it's 45 degree down is good.  (bottom doesn't mean right under.)\n\nlook at where u r serving to, imagine the line of how u want ur ball goes.  then look at where ur hand is when making contact to the ball.\n\nthat works for female too, but a lot of female when they start overhand serve, they don't hav enough strength.  one of the things they r missing is, using their body to help.  this is how i started learning overhand serve in junior high (i served sideway and round house b4 that):  1st, say if u serve w/ ur right hand, the ready position will be, ur right leg in the back, left leg front, put the weight on ur right leg.  as u toss and hit the ball, u r also changing ur weight from ur right leg to ur left, so u r like walking forward.  u r actually throwing ur right side body to the front, ur right hand is only use to hit the ball, where the power is actually coming from ur body.\n\nHIT the ball, not pushing it.\n\nlastly, of cuz, a lot of practise!  =P\n\noh yeah, as u r serving, think of it: "SMACK IT LIKE IT JUST SMACKED U!!"\n\nthis is only my 2 cents, and everyone is different.  to be correct is important, but to be good at what u've got is even better.  i'm not very good in explaining in words, but i hope this will help.


... that we find you so attractive that we would die to kiss you or do even more?\n\nDo you realize that is what we are thinking?

at that particular moment, yes. Moments do not define what comes after they end.


How many who read this will be willing to meet in front of the State Capital in Austin to speak out on ILLIGAL Immigrants. We can pick a date and time.


You must respect the office of  The President of The United States by using the Presidential title with the correct capitalization and wording.

I think his question is "Do we remember to be respectful?". He is very right, but not only regarding the president. People hardly ever say "Mr, Mrs, Miss, Ms." I got married last July and very seldom has anyone called me "Mrs". You defiantly don't hear the terms "maam" "madam" or "sir" often!


All the white people sayin about why there no white history month.  I mean every month is.  Why we only get the shortest month of the year anywayz.  It make me so mad.

Actually there are plenty of white history months: Italian American Heritage Month, Irish American Heritage Month, German American Heritage month... you get the drift. The reason it's called "Black History Month" is because black people have been so far removed from their ancestory in Africa that most don't know what region they're from. If they knew, then you would see Ghanaian History Month, Nigerian History Month, etc. But since they most don't know, it's easier to lump it all together in one month. But whites have just as many months to honor their heritage as blacks do. Whites are just lucky enough to know about their specific heritage to be able to honor each one specifically. And if they want to promote it as much as Black history month, then those people need to get off their azzes and do it instead of whining. Blacks made their month a big deal through self-promotion. let the Italians, Irish, Germans, Swedish, etc. do the same thing.\n\n--\n\n\nBTW... I'm guessing this "Shameeka" isn't a real black female (the name is so corny and stereotypical). More likely it's some wise-azz guy trying to start shyt. And he's apparently succeeded...


All the teen-agers at my church act like such teases, particularly the girls. They come in dressing all super-pretty and act like they are perfect in every way. They play piano, or sing. They sit there and make eyes at me during church, and then turn their noses up when I make a point to speak to them, like they're too good. It's a big church, but not particularly a rich one. It's originally a laid-back country church, notwithstanding the lack of a laid-back attitude. Rather, these kids act like they are "God's gift" and that they can just slight anybody who doesn't meet their special standards. I think the parents realize this behavior in their kids, but pretend it isn't there. They even seem to reinforce it to some degree, as if it's admirable to go to church and be a snoot.\n\nSo, how is someone like myself supposed to deal with these Christian goody-two-shoes? Are all Christians like this? If they are, I'm not real sure that I want to know very many of them, let alone go to church.

You point at them and say, "There, but for the grace of God, go I"

i want the economic chlllenges that the muslims/ummahs are facing.

Ok... Some pratical challenges facing muslims living in western countries.....\nProblems with how the banking system complys with Sariah law.

i want to set up my history button so i can look back to when ever.

If you are using Internet Exploder...(*coughs*) Internet Explorer:\n\nSimply go click on "Tools" in the toolbar in IE, and select "Internet Options".  Then look in the "General" tab and look for the area marked off as "History".  There should be an option for "Days to keep pages in history:" followed by a box that contains a number.  If you wish to be able to look back for an entire month, or about 4 weeks, change this number to 31.  Else, increase the number to the maximum number of days that fits your satisfaction.\n\nIf you are using Firefox:\nAgain click on "Tools" in the toolbar and select "Options..."\nNow, click on the "Privacy" button at the top of the menu that comes up, and then click on the "History" tab.  Make sure that you have "History" and not "Download History".  Again, in the "History" tab, there is a single entry labeled as "Remember visited pages for the last [___] days."  Simply edit the number in the box, say 31 for a whole month or 62 for two whole months, and press okay.


I am committed to my marriage and family, but this is a huge shock.  He did not tell me--I discovered stuff he was looking at on line.  He is in therapy and we are in counseling, but this is a very hard new reality to accept.  He is not asking me to participate in his activities, and he swears he is not engaging in the practices any more.  I feel like I didn't know the person I married.

It sounds like he really loves you if he'll give up his things for you.  It comes down to you.  Can you live with his extra baggage?\n\nI really doubt that he can completely drop it cold turkey.  It's like any other habit.  You can try and forget about it, but it'll nag him over the years.  You'll always be worried that he's doing it behind your back even if he's not.\n\nIf you don't think you can ever learn to live with it, then it might be best to at least try and continue the counseling to see if you can work things out.  But it'll be tough.  From the wording of your question ("I feel like I didn't know the person I married"), it sounds like it's probably not going to work out.  But at least give it a shot or else you'll regret not having tried.

Why do these two countries despise each other?

Correction - it's the English who seem to dislike the French (probably because of ancient disputes over land between the monarchs of the two countries which kept them at war, off and on, for hundreds of years). Scotland and France have been part of "The Auld Alliance" for many hundreds of years and similarly, Ireland and France have historic ties. But anti-French sentiment is most strongly rooted in the towns of the South Coast of England, where generations of men went to sea to fight France (and Spain).\nUltimately tho, land, money and power are at the root of it all and he antipathy between the Crowns of England and France has a lot to answer for.

I hardly see any genuine photos anymore! Are avatars more fun? Do you wish you could look that good? Are you all just some ugly mutha's? Im just tryin to have fun. Dont get all offended. But seriously.... why? I feel like a freak being only one of few who actually have photos posted!

The pictures are nicer, but the avatars are better than the square box smiley face, but then, the avatars are quite limited on choices.  My picture represents my personality...yes, I am quite squirrelly.


I believe almost anyone can be intelligent, but being intelligent and doing ignorant things would, I just be classified as being an idiot. How do know if you are intelligent?

I think there are two categories: common sense and book smarts.  Most are born with one of the two.  However my ex didn't have either so in "special" cases like his, you either got it or ya don't.


my circuit is all right and every thing is right

One end of the galvanometer is connected between P and Q; the other end between R and S.\n\nYou have one sided deflection even after checking for any wrong connections.\n\nIt means proper ratio of resistances is not chosen.\n\nThe resistances cannot be taken at random.  P/ Q must be nearly equal to R/S.\n\nAdjust the resistances so that P/ Q must be nearly equal to R/S.\n\nWhen these ratios differ much you will get one sided deflection.


There seems to be a heavy genital focus to christian religion, is it really a covert expression of an ancient fertility cult that may have been chritianity's true origins

Christianity is dangerous!  They need to practice safe sects!


I had this nightmare about 5 years ago and I can still remember it vividly which is the first time this has happened. Me, my brother and my mum are travelling along these roads in a forrest in Scotland and theres this miniture castle. We get out of teh car and I notice all these head masks on the trees, my brother runs into the castle and my mum just disappears, I go in after him and try to hide him because for some reason I know that something bad is there. \n Then I see my dad but he's this grotesque slug and he see's us and slimes his way towards us, I scream and then I wake up. It may not sound like it but at the time I was petrified.

Slugs \nTo see slugs in your dream, indicates that you are progressing through life in a slow, steady, and persistent manner. You may be moving painfully slowly toward a goal. \n\nTo dream that slugs are coming out from inside your body, suggests that you are having difficulties expressing some aspect of your emotion. Consider where in your body are the slugs coming out from.


He's an old army buddy and i have spoken to his father but i don't think that he passed on the message. If anybody knows him could you ask him to drop me a line. Or if you know him any information would be great. You can send it to my e-mail if it is a phone # or address. Thanks alot.

working the problem out would help me considerably, i am not sure how to see if a certain chemical is soluble in a X M level.

CaSO4 (Calcium Sulfate) is soluable in everything exept for Ag2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, and Pb2+. i am not going to lie to you and tell u that i know y this occurs but if i were to guess i would say that it was because CaSO4 is an ionic compound.


Seriously people. There is a spell check button to check your spelling. Most people on here spell worse than 3rd graders.

People are lazy, ignorant, and apathetic.  Not only can they not bother to check their spelling, they don't seem to think it's worth the time.  If you can understand me, then that's all that matters, seems to be their thought process.  What they fail to realize is that by not checking their spelling, the poster is causing people to reduce their estimation of him/her.  It's sort of like people who drawl out their words...you know the kind.  Every four letter word has two syllables?  Now, they might be the smartest person in the room, but you can't help but knock off a few IQ points when you hear them speak.


Do you have any ideas other than a flier for builders when it comes to marketing?

Get in touch with realtors.  Let them know all the areas that you can help with.  For example, before a house is sold many times there are repairs required.  The realtor may need this done quickly.  If you are interested in that kind of work let them know that you are available to do it.  If you are strictly looking for full house building projects let several realtors know that.  Join the local chamber of commerce.  Create a website and get it listed all over the web.  Here is a cheap place the start: http://www.kahmer.com

I ccan't install yahoo messanger in my work place.

If you do not have the ability to install on your work computer you could consider seeing if you can use a jump drive to put a program such as "gaim" or "trillian" which are multiple client programs. I do not know if they require a registry or not but I do know they work wonders. I prefer Gaim but there is minimal you can do compared to the actual Yahoo client. No "webcam" or voice capabilities, but for general text it works great.\n\nYou could also see about going to http://my.yahoo.com and using the "Messenger" on the main site which is a java based client. It has flaws and glitches but it does work kind of.


Off and on for the last year I've had a yeast infection. The first time it was nasty, since then I do the cycle of suppositories, then have a week or so fine and happy, then it comes back (not very severe, but still unpleasant, to say the least). I've boiled, baked, drier-d and fried all my undies, swimsuits, sheets, towels and everything else I could think of so many times it's all losing color and shape. How do I end this cycle? I really want the infection to just go away...and stay away.

Are you sure it really is a Yeasty? I know that sounds crazy to ask but recently someone discovered that less than 30% of the women buying OTC yeast treatments did NOT have yeasties.\n\nMost women do not realise that it is NORMAL & HEALTHY to have a vaginal discharge. During the first few days after AF stops you should be dry, but as teh hormones build up in your body you begin to produce a cervical fluid. As the hormones build up that will increase and for apx 5 days it will become slippery, clear, etc and you will be very fertile. After this it will often dry up again only to return and be creamy/pasty towards teh end of your cycle. So, many women believe they have a yeast infection at least once a cycle... and believe they have cured it b/c it goes away for a while just about 5 days after starting their treatment. All you have done is upset the PH ballance in your vagina - which will actually incourage a Yeast infection since Yeast is SUPPOSED to be there, but when you use antibiotics you ruin the balance of normal flora. \n\nYeast colonizes faster than other bacteria so you end up with more and more trouble with it the more you treat it. The best thing you can do to decrease the yeast so the other normal flora can reconolize and rebalance is to eat lots of yeast and eliminate (for a while) as much sugar as you can from your diet. (Yeast thrives on sugar) You should also be conscious of your inumity - lowered immunity allows the yeast to take over too & may be a first sign of HIV infection. If you take BCPs or use an IUD you will have far more incidence of Yeast Infections. Wearing tight or synthetic clothing that traps moisture in the urogenital area will encourage yeast too.\n\nIf you really do have a yeast infection you will have thick white crud that gets trapped in the folds of your labia while vaginal secretions do not get trapped easily. Yeast infections will ITCH! The odor is distinct and strong - it smells like beer or bread dough (both are yeast). You will also have a slight fever.\n\nAlso be aware that Yeast infections are not limited to the urogenital region... you can get yeast under artificial nails, in the skin, in your mouth, etc.

If my professor calls me a "bozo", is he saying I should join a circus? I don't wear makeup, i do have red hair tho...i don't wear baggy garish pantaloons...but i do wear crazily checkered/coloured Vans...and truthfully, clowns terrify me...

Do you wear a squirty flower? Have a hand-shake buzzer? Cram 100 of your closest, red-nose, floppy-shoe wearing friends in a VW? If not, tell your professor to get fucked : )


Ok, story is the following (sorry if its boring for you!), Seen girl in gym i really fancy, she was seeing someone else from in there but split about 2 months ago, saw her out last night, got chatting made her smile and laugh, she said she'd been checking me out, fancied me, i said the same, talked for hours, shared a really long kiss several times, exchanged numbers, thought everything was cool! Anyhow, text her a couple of times today but not received anything back, so I'm guessing either she's ignoring me for a purpose or I imputted the wrong number on my moby (we were both drunk at the time. How does this one pan out?..Did I do anything wrong? Discuss...

Just be cool about it don't keep trying to contact, if you happen to run into her again and she is welcoming then talk. Also just take your time I personally don't think you did anything wrong. But one of the most important thing is you take things more slowly collect all the facts with her. Especially before you invest too much time and emotion. Good Luck, laters


if you are in love with someone who is far far away from you and you want to express your feeling to them?

tell them how you feel, but find out if the feeling is mutual??!!  Long-distance relationships are hard to hold onto and keep alive.  if ya ll two are really serious about one another than find away to be with one another. I hope everything works out for the best for you.   good luck

They always get picked on. I just rewatched a Simpsons episode where Homer said something like "If we're American why would we want to visit America Jr.?" Are Canadians just embarassed for us or what?

We've been sick of Americans for a long time, but there's unfortunately not much we can do about it except make fun of Americans on our own TV. Heck, we go so far, unfortunately, as to base a large amount of our national pride on being not American. So yeah, we're sick of you all; maybe that's why we're not as helpful on the international scene now as we were.

my ex was the pastor at that time, do you think they was cheating then

Just let it go.\n\nTry to be happy for her that she has found someone to share her life with and let it go.\n\nIf you don't it will just eat you up and you'll never move on.\n\nIf you don't let it go you will never be ready to discover your Miss Right.\n\nLeave her in peace and work on your own life.  Get out and discover some new hobbies and passions...hopefully while you are expanding your horizons a lovely lady will stroll over and explore with you.\n\n:)\n\nPeace

I want to keep master copies of my work, but want to be able to photocopy (xerox) copies for others.  What can I use to write master copy without it showing on the copies?


My neck, my thighs, my calves, my ankle, and especially my neck. They all hurt. All at the same time. I haven't done any strenuous excercise (haha... excercise... what's that?) and I have no clue why I hurt. My ankle hurts soo bad I limp, my thighs hurt everytime I go up my stairs (and that's often, but normal), and my neck hurts like if somebody sawed it in half, that would releave the pain.\n\nDoes anyone have any idea as to why I hurt so much when I haven't done anything to make myself hurt? (Don't think I just sit around all day and am obese, because I'm not. And at the moment, I can't go to the doctor to see what's wrong)

Dude it is just growing pains...... DONT SWEAT IT


I know you have to obviously go up to her and start talkin with her. But i'm meaning wat looks do girls give when you know there interested.

the question is not the looker whom gave the glance it's...if YOU want the person that looked at you?...If the answer is YES ..then go over and make your attraction KNOWN...everybody looks at someone ..for varies reason's so just because they looked is not the question...How do you feel about the LOOKER?


I currently reside in California if this makes any difference at all.

Renting to Own (RTO) can be a great way to get into the home of your dreams especially if you have challenged credit.  If you know you can fix or boost your credit withing the time of the lease (say 2 years), then get in now and refinance into your name when your credit is better.\n\nIf you can lock in the purchase price for the full term, even better, especially if the market moves up.  This isn't always the case, but if available, good for you.\n\nDrawbacks:  If you are late on a payment you may lose your entire deposit and any credit towards the purchase price that you may have accumulated.\n\nAlso if you decide not to buy at the end of the term, you lose your deposits and credits as well.


how do u act wen u really love a gurl and what are some words u would tell them have yall ever lied to a gurl telling her yall love her wen yal dont? why u do this

when guys lie, it's one of three things..\n\nguys lie and say 'i love you'\nwhen they are insecure about the relationship..\nthey are not sure if the girl is feeling the same\nintimacy that they are feeling...\nso they are searching for ways to impress you and to\nbuy you with words...\n.. try this..\nif your man says 'i love you,' just smile and don't respond.\n.. see what he does..\nif he's hurt and downtrodden, thinking you don't love him\nback, there's your clue as to whether he's insecure\nor not..\n.. if he shrugs it off and thinks nothing of that fact\nthat you haven't responded, either he's a keeper\nor he doesn't care either..\n\nsecondly, guys lie and say 'i love you'\nbecause they think the relationship HAS TO reach\nthe peak where you MUST say 'i love you..'\nin other words, he may not be in love..\nhe may just like you tremendously.. but he believes that\nwhat he's feeling is love..\n.. it may be lust\n.. it may be infatuation\n.. it may be nothing but pure admiration..\nbut he's confounded into thinking it is love..\n\ngodspeed


My fiance lives in Africa.  We're actually coping really well with the distance until he comes here in September.  But I'm just wondering how other people handle it?  Any advice?

I am coping with one myself. One way I cope with it is to send him gifts for Christmas and other holidays just as if he was here. Another thing I do is talk a lot to him on the phone and on instant messagging. We send e-mail and e-cards to each other as well. But in the end, there are three important things to remember in a relationship: trust, love, and loyalty. By acting like the distance isn't that far, the time passes a whole lot quicker and before I know it, he is going to be back in two months!\nI hope this advice has really helped you out!


I have a Maxtor Maxline III, Model 7L300S0, 300GB SATA150 hard drive attached to an Aopen AX4R Plus motherboard with a Silicon Image SATA controller (Sil3112ACT144) on it. I’ve freshly installed Windows XP Pro on it, and it successfully loaded up to windows the first time or two, but now it either hangs on a black screen after P.O.S.T. or it gives me this error:\n\nWindows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:\n\n   Windows\system32\config\system\n\nYou can attempt to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the \noriginal Setup CD-ROM. Select 'r' at the first screen to start repair.\n\n Has anyone else had this same problem with the same motherboard SATA controller, but a different hard drive and have solved it? Or does anyone have any idea of how to fix this?

just reinstall windows, and if it happens again you have a bad hard drive or controller... \n\nif you try swapping out the controller with a known working control and it happens again, the problem isn't following the control. continue on by trying a different drive of the same type, problem still happens, you know it's not that specific drive.


i live in a mobile home community when you drive in the intrance there is a sign that says private property yet i or many of the people that reside there can not drive or walk thru the park without being stoped by the police and harassed for no reason wanting to know when the last time you did drugs and having us spread eagle and patting us down even going as far as taking off our shoes and socks its like there hang out they just sit in there and wait for some one to harass now seeing how it is private property dont they have to be called by a resadent to come in there or follow some one in off the street the streets are not public streets it just that a lot of us that live here are getting tired of all the bullshit hell the manegment drives there golf carts all over in there and i know golf carts are not allowed on public streets so if they are going ton harass us they should also get the manegment for driving unregesterd viecals also

well that depends, what country do you live in?


What I amazingly found it explicitly Decribes Jesus Moses etc. and all the prophets which we see in bible not only quran explain in detail but enjoin them to revere,great.\nunlike christianity Jesus is considered as humanbeing as other prophets,seem sensible,and also no room for Jesus crucified for sin of entire humanity, everyone one is responsible for his or her deeds seem obvious and also no concept of trinity only single almighty God I am discovering all the unanswered question in christianity surprisingly in Islam which I never thought christen and jews are called in quran "people of the book" those who have been given guidance through book revealed unto the prophets by almighty God,these facts muslims rarely tell us,I think we christen should study quran then our misconception and hate towards each other can be eradicated I found it really devine,but unfortunately muslims seem greatly different from what Islam says in quran

The quran is totally in line with the bible. It is many christians that have wrong believes about their own religion.\n\nThe bible says (in Romans) that only those people will be saved by Jesus death that died with Jesus on the cross.\n\nIf one sees the wealth of most christians and reads the new testament - it is easy to see that the so called christian cultures are not christian at all. Richess is clearly forbidden in the bible.\n\nI do not agree that moslims live very far away from the quran - of course there are people that have been led astray too - but generally I have the impression that most moslims take their religion more seriously - if only because there is a lot of social pressure on them to do so.\n\nIn the west - you see the reverse - at least in my country (the netherlands) the social pressure is to break every law that God prescribed to the people (you can read them most clearly in Mathew - as explained by Jesus).\n\nBut yes, I do feel every christian should at least read the Koran once.


10cm on a side. I think this is what you want.


Why don't you spend more time working an honest job than betting on dog races? You'd be surprised how good it feels to have worked hard to earn your money.


I started shooting with several other men ( I have a 9mm )I ended up getting just as good if not better than some of them in a very short time. There were alot of mad men, so I quite going. I miss it , I really enjoyed. I don't what to make them mad , it was just them to start with . Me going along was just a joke. Who know I would like it.

Heck no.  You could go shooting/hunting with me anyday.  Kansas.  Although I know a few guys that would put their guns back in their cases and go home if you outshot them.  One guy I know missed 2 targets on the skeet range by station 7, and then packed his stuff up and drove home.  His license plate said 100 str8.


Do they not have welfare,schools and jobs over there?I can't believe that Mexico has nothing to offer to their own.

The wage discepensy is such that they can earn 5 times as much money here then there.  Then they get on their cell phones speaking spanish and plan their return to mexico where they will live like kinds.


i want to know that what is the thing which comes put of the vagina, looks like transparent jelly (EWWWWWW) and makes the underwear wet??? what is this and how to get rid of it??

Honey! That's your cervical mucus telling you that you're fertile. If you ever get to where you want to get pregnant it's a pretty good indicator of ovulation either about to occur or it just did. It's a good thing- don't be disgusted by it!

Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of a spiritless situation. It is the opium of the people. \n\nCritique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right

Nah, the new opium of the masses is shopping....ie commercialism !!


My friend and I both like the same guy. He is so sweet snd so nice and whew! not to mention HOT! I think he likes her, which is no surprise, I'm often overlooked. I don't want her not to go out with him because its not really fair to her or him, I just cant help feeling a little hurt. What should I do?

I've been in that position...many times.You can't dwell on your situation too long because when a guy comes a long who really likes you ,you may miss him.You don't want to miss him do you??????Even if nobody likes you for a while its just a phase.please believe me.I have a wonderful bf who when I met him I was liking another guy.


I am preparing a pro se Motion to Reconsider / Reargue in Nassau County (NY) Supreme Court in a matrimonial matter, namely division of property.  In re-filing my Motion, the Court asked me to fill in 3 more forms: a Notice of Motion, an Affidavit and an Affidavit of Service.  I don't know what goes in some of the blanks.  If you know of a web-page that would be helpful, let me know.  PLease help.  Thanks a heap!

They are pretty simple in idea -- notice of motion is simply a form letting the other side know you are bringing a motion, what the motion is, when and where it will be heard.\n\nAn affidavit is any sworn statement testifying to facts.  The affidavit of service just swears that you properly provided notice to the other side -- the trick is knowing what constitutes enough notice, and how it has to be served.\n\nAs to what the judge wants an affidavit for, it is hard to know. If you stated any facts in your motion, you need to provide an affidavit swearing to the facts you know, and swearing that any documents you submitted as evidence are true and correct copies.


I have a 2 month old baby and I split with the father before I found out that I was poregnant and when I told him about it he asked me to get an abortion or give it up for adoption and I told him no because I dont believe in it and I wouldnt and then after like a lil while he asked me to marry him and move far away from my family... and now recently we started talking again since my son was born and he says he dont wanna be with n e one fer awhile but when he says me he has this look in his eyes.....is he just jerking my chain and wnats to be with me or does he not wanna be with me?

oh dear, sounds like a boy not a man huh? that sucks. well i'm proud of you for not erasing the baby's life- so proud! \n\nit's probably too late to give the baby for adoption (which would have been best for the baby to have a stable home- but i don't blame you because i don't know how i could do that myself) so just be the best mom you can be and go on with you life.\n\nfrom what i know you can't rely on him being around, he most likely won't. if he can't be a unit with you and HIS OWN CHILD right now what's going to make him grow up later?  he's jerking your chain whether he BELIEVES it or not. I'm afraid you will be disappointed in him in the future if you rely on him:( or wait for him


he took the sisters picture without her permission.\nI found out my brother show his friend a pic of me from in my room dressing.\n\nQuestion is why would a normal brother do this?\nShould I be mad at him?

He may be doing this to get on his friend's good side. He may be doing this because he is angry at you or jealous of you. (He may have these feelings even if he hasn't expressed them to you.)\n\nWhat he did was a violation of your trust and your privacy, and, yes, you have every right to be angry with him if that is how you feel.


it seems as though any watch i wear i stop it dead...does anyone know where i can find info on this?

buy more expensive watches. \nThe average $5-10 watch does not seem to last longer than half a year. \nAlternatively you may treat them too rough. Non-waterproof watches are exactly that and so on...\nYou get what you pay for. \nThough you still can loose the expensive watches... so it's your decision

What is the translation from spanish to english?

Saint Jacob (aka St. James). Iago is a Latin form of Jacob. It makes more sense if you think of the original Hebrew form, Yaakov, which sounds more like Iago. James is another Anglicized version of Yaakov, but Jacob is closer.

i notice that when someone has been in trouble of some sort, that the past always seems to reflect on a person in todays world. people do change and deserve a chance to prove theirselves. why are people so judgemental?

People will always judge the bible says judge not lest you be judged. by what the bible says I don;t think I will judge anyone untruthfully.


I have the French nationality and the Guatemalan as well. \nI am wondering if I can get a third nationality, Spanish, without having to renounce to one of the other two.

"Nationality" usually refers to something you've obtained by birth, such as one of your parents having a nationality, which is transmitted to you.  It is difficult for someone to add another nationality, unless you become a citizen of that region and therefore consider an added nationality of your new place of citizenship.\n\n"Citizenship," though, refers to something different, and may require you to renounce your citizenship in a different country if you obtain citizenship from another country.  This can depend heavily upon the circumstances of the citizenship, include how the original citizenship was obtained and why the new citizenship is sought.\n\nAs of now, however, your question is unanswerable.  If you posted more details and were clearer in a different question, perhaps someone could answer you directly.


I don't over-do-it on the dairy, nor am I eating too many legumes!  Hmmm . . . it's not comfortable either!  Help!

Gas, Bloating and/or flatulance:\n\nSwallowed Air\n\nSome people habitually swallow air, a practice referred to as aerophagia. They are usually unaware that they do this, and the cause is often anxiety-related.\n\nThe gas swallowed is composed mainly of oxygen and nitrogen. Most of the swallowed oxygen is absorbed by the mucous lining of the gut or is used up by colon bacteria. Very little appears in the flatus.\n\nIn contrast, nitrogen is poorly absorbed by the mucous lining and most of the swallowed nitrogen appears in the flatus.\n\nTreatment Strategies\n1.Self-awareness of aerophagia. Conscious breathing.\n2. Relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety.\n\n3. Avoid lying down after eating. Gas from the stomach passes into the intestines more readily in this position.\n\nPoorly Absorbed Carbohydrates\n\nHydrogen and carbon dioxide are produced by colon bacteria in the presence of poorly absorbed carbohydrates. If flatulence is accompanied by diarrhea and weight loss, it may indicate a malabsorption disorder such as lactose intolerance or pancreatic insufficiency, and should be evaluated by your primary health care provider.\n\nMore common is excess flatulence after eating large amounts of poorly absorbed carbohydrates such as beans or foods that you have a sensitivity to. Common carbohydrate sensitivities include milk, and wheat products.\n\nTreatment Strategies\n\n1. Chew food carefully. Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth. Any work your teeth don't do, your stomach will have to do later.\n\n2. Try an elimination and challenge diet, under the supervision of a health care practitioner. This is a diagnostic diet to help you find out which carbohydrates you may have a sensitivity to.\n\n3. Consult your primary care provider to rule out malabsorption disorder if you are also experiencing weight loss and diarrhea.\n\nGas and Flatulence After High-Fat Meals\n\nCarbon dioxide is produced in the small intestine when bicarbonate is released to neutralize stomach acid and fat during meals. Eating a high-fat meal can generate a large amount of carbon dioxide, some of which is released as gas.\n\nTreatment Strategies\n\n1. Eat 5 smaller meals instead of three large meals.\n\n2. Avoid high-fat meals. In general, fat intake should be about 30% of total dietary intake and should include plenty of monounsaturated and essential fats. Unhealthy saturated or hydrogenated fats should be limited.\n\n3. Consult your primary care provider to rule out the possibility of fat malabsorption. Signs of fat malabsorption include loose and light-colored stools.\n\nOdorous Flatulence and Gas\n\nGas that has a strong odor usually results from the metabolism of sulfur-containing proteins and amino acids in the intestines.\n\nTreatment Strategies\n\n1. Chew meat and other protein foods carefully. Avoid excessive protein in your diet.\n\n2. Taking activated charcoal tablets can help to remove the odor.\n\n3. Chronic malodorous gas may be a sign of difficulty digesting protein. Consult a naturopathic doctor or other qualified professional to evaluate your level of stomach acid, pancreatic enzymes, and colonic bacteria.\n\nEating Foods that Produce Gas\n\nCertain foods are inherently gas-producing. Gas-producing foods include beans, cabbage, onions, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli, fluffy wheat products such as bread, apples, peaches, pears, prunes, corn, oats, potatoes, milk, ice cream, and soft cheese.\n\nFoods that produce minimal gas include rice, bananas, citrus, grapes, hard cheese, meat, eggs, peanut butter, non-carbonated beverages, and yogurt made with live bacteria. Medical Disease\n\nWhen someone has persisting bloating and flatulence, lab tests and x-rays are first conducted to exclude the presence of medical disease. Colorectal cancer often presents with the symptoms of abdomen discomfort and bloating. Celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease may have similar symptoms. It is important to remember that gas and bloating are vague


i=v/r\n\ni=current\nv=voltage\nr=resistance\n\nThink of it as a hose full of water. The current is the amount of water going through the hose. The voltage would be the pressure of the water, and the resistance would be the diameter and the length of the hose. So obviously if you have a huge pressure on a huge diameter hose, you are going to have a huge current. But if your resistance is very high, like say the hose is just a little straw, then even with alot of pressure the current will be pretty small. And same thing the other way around. If you have a really big pipe, then you only need a little pressure to move alot of water.\n\nElecricity works the same way, except that resistance is not so much the wire as is the appliance in the circuit. So you might say that a light bulb has a certain resistance that causes a certain current when hooked up to a 12 volt power source.


You have to use the name of your first pet as the first name then the name of the first street you lived in as the second name. For example mine would be Misty Boulevard (not bad eh). The best name gets 10 points :)

I'm doing a project on castles and i need to know if the castle i did was right. I put a couple houses in the inside wall like a Manor would. Is this right?

Yes, there can be houses inside castles. The castle in Angers, France has several houses in it.


I recently bought and financed a car with a small downpayment with a major dealership in texas.  Weeks have passed and the sales guy called me back and said that they couldn't get my finacing approved and 1)either need to put me in another car or 2)need more money down.  I am going in tomorrow to put more money down and re-sign paperwork.  All the paperwork was previously done.  He swears that they are able to do this deal and it actually lowered my payments.  What the heck do I do?  I thought, because the paperwork was signed that it's binding?

Sounds as if they found a secondary one to buy the paperwork. I still would ask a lot of questions before I signed any thing...Janie


Mine was when I went to see the san jose sharks play and they clinched the divison with a last second goal

Watching the White Sox win game two of the 2005 World Series at U.S. Celluar Stadium in Chicago ... the whole building literally shook when Paul Konerko hit the grand slam in the 7th inning and then when Scott Podsednik homered in the bottom of the ninth it was just as wild. Unbelievable experience.


I just read this on a question about this end of times stuff\n\n"Well Jesus is alive and is coming back for His people. The Bible does not say when, but has given us prophecies to follow as an indication of when. Most of the prophecies have been fulfilled and that is why we believe there won't be many years left before the Lord returns. \n\nI choose to bless the nation of Israel as God said I will bless those that bless you (Israel) and curse those who curse you. I'd rather be blessed than cursed. "\n\nSo my question is: In order not to be smitted by God, how does one go about blessing Israel? Is it to turn another cheek when they commit atrocities against the Palestinians?  What do the ramblings quoted above actually mean?

im not jewish, but you must protect God's choosen people (the jews) as stated in the new and old testiment. everyone else (even the palestines) are immaterial


For example, if you send an email to a "gmail" account, is there a way for you to see when someone has opened your email?

Not directly, but there may be a solution through Microsoft Office.  If you attach your hotmail account to either Outlook or Outlook Express, you may be able to take advantage of Outlook's ability to program or view other's email actions.  Hope this helps or points you in a better direction!


For example(what does claiming 1 mean as to claiming 0)\nI'm single, and have no children, what's the best way to fill these forms out?

Some Dude's answer isn't true for everyone.\nWhen  you say beginning, do you mean this is your FIRST job or are you changing to a new job?\nIf this is your first job then yea, I would claim 0.\nHowever, if are older and are just changing jobs, it is more likely that you will be able to itemize your deductions, (rather than using the standard ded).\nEspecially if you own a home or have huge medical bills.\n\nAcccording to W-4 instructions, if you suspect you'll be getting too much of a refund (based on prior returns) you can claim up to 2 (one per letter) as a single person if you meet these requirements:\nA  if no one else can claim you as a dependent\nB  You are single and have only one job


i learned the topic giardiasis today and my lecturer asked us that question. i tried searching for it but cant find it

I'm a bit puzzled by the question. Typically, the relationship is the other way around. Hypogammaglobulinemia is often associated with chronic giardiasis in humans. This has led to the hypothesis that antibodies, particularly of the IgA isotype, are required to control Giardia infections. In other words, having hypogammaglobulinemia can make you susceptible to giardiasis.\nHowever, they may be getting at the idea that Giardia infection, along with others, can *unmask* a previously unsuspected predisposition to immune problems. Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is an immune defect characterized by primary hypogammaglobulinemia. Most of the time, clinical manifestations that reveal CVID are recurrent bacterial infections, but other infections (like Giardia, a parasite) can do it. If people get infected, they can't clear the infection, and they eventually get picked up with hypogammaglobulinemia.\nAlternately, it may be that the chronic infection causes a problem with the lymphoid tissue in the gut, producing a deficit of IgA. If you go to the link before and search for 'giardia hypogammaglobulinemia' you get a reference (number 2, I think) which might say that - but I'm not sure because you have to pay to access the full text article and I don't care enough to do that. You might be able to get access free through your campus library.


construct a pie chart from this information\n"branch"      "count" \nARMY            17\nNAVY            10\nAIR FORCE       4\nMARINES         6\nCoast GUARD     1\nNational GUARD  2

You need to add up the total:\n17+10+4+6+1+2 = 40\n\nNow determine the percentages for each service:\nArmy = 17/40 = 42.5%\nNavy = 10/40 = 25%\nAF   = 4/40  = 10%\nMarines = 6/40 = 15%\nCG   = 1/40 = 2.5%\nNat. Guard = 2/40 = 5%\n\nNow build the pie giving each service slice the appropriate percentage of the pie.


any kind of information is fine \n\n im doing a social studies report!!!

well they were all part of the industrial north and provided good transportation


Do you think they will peacefully obey new laws after ignoring the one that says they can't come here?  Or will there be riots?

Oh, there will definitely be rioting.  If they have the guts to wave our flag upside down, and insist that they deserve the American rights, even though they are not American, they will certainly riot if we try to deport them.

My husband says you should ask "Did you get my note?"


Religion has evolved throughout history...   It has become more complicated or un-complicated (depending on your view) as time has moved on.  Religion explains the unexplainable to us.  So, if we can understand things now that we couldn't understand before will we eventually not have a need for religion?  Is it possible that these belief systems are now failing?  If so, do you think we should replace it with another, or leave organization out of belief?

I'm not sure that you're correct that we actually understand more now than we did before.  It is still a common assumption that we only use 10% of our brains.  What would we know if we were able to use the other 90%?  We still have no idea what really exists outside of our immediate environment, however far that goes into space, we can only assume that we've only scratched the surface.  Despite all the things that we can create, we cannot get close to re-creating a telescopic lens as diverse as the human eye, nor can we create a shock absorbing device nearly as complex as the knee.  Yes, we are making incredible progress in certain areas, but we will never know everything.  Secondly, my relationship with Christ is not a result of me wanting to understand the world in which I live.  It is a result of a desire to be with the one who created me.  So, to answer your question, some religions may fail, they will be proven useless.  However, a relationship with Christ will never be unnecessary.

Anyone think our High unemployment status is directly in cause because of bush?  Why or Why Not?

Antivenom (or antivenin, or antivenene) is a biological product used in the treatment of venomous bites. It is created by injecting a small amount of the targeted venom into an animal such as horses, sheep, goats, or rabbits; the subject animal will suffer an immune response to the venom, producing antibodies against the venom's active molecule which can then be harvested from the animal's blood and used to treat envenomation in others.
