characteristics of each english phonemes.include notes on each of the english phonemes.

I don't know of any specific chart, but try this exercise out for fun:\n\nCan you read these right the first time?\n\n1) The bandage was wound around the wound.\n\n2) The farm was used to produce produce.\n\n3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.\n\n4) We must polish the Polish furniture.\n\n5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.\n\n6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.\n\n7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.\n\n8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.\n\n9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.\n\n10) I did not object to the object.\n\n11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.\n\n12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.\n\n13) They were too close to the door to close it.\n\n14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.\n\n15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.\n\n16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.\n\n17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail.\n\n  18) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.\n\n19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.\n\n20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?\n\n\nLet's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.  English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France.  Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.  We take English for granted.  But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.\n\nAnd why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?  If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth?  One goose, 2 geese.  So one moose, 2 meese?  One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend?  If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?\n\nIf teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?  If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?  Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?  Have noses that run and feet that smell?\n\nHow can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?  You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.\n\nEnglish was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all.  That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.\n\nPS. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"\n\n\nYou lovers of the English language might enjoy this . . . \n\n\n\nThere is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is "UP." \n\nIt's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?  At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? \n\nWe call UP our friends.  And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car.  At other times the little word has real special meaning.  People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed

I am a 20yo female.\n\nI'm finding it hard to find a boyfriend! All the men I meet are after one thing and that turns me off.\n\nI have no idea where to look to find a good, decent guy. \n\nIm not un-attractive, I get checked out/ hit on basically on a regular basis, I just cant seem to find that one guy to be with.\n\nIts getting very frustrating as I really want someone in my life to love and etc. Where do I find the right guy?\n\nIve been told that love happens unexpectedly...I honestly cant wait that long!\n\nAny suggestions on what I should do???\n\nKeep in my mind I live in Australia :)\n\nApparently im a great catch, then why the hell isnt anyone fishing for me??? Is it something that im doing or is it that good, decent men are hard to find???\n\nWhere should I be looking exactly? \n\nAny tips on what I should be doing?\n\nI have an age limit of 18-30 (not really into the younger fellas or the older fellas but age is just a number)\n\nHELP!!!

Err Joe that was a line.....not an answer LOL  This is funny!\n\nAs for you Matie, I believe the same thing is true for all of us.. we all want a 'man'.  I think the answer is in your 'activities' and what you are interested in.. find your passion and start 'joining clubs' that center around your passion.  I love birds, so I'd hit the bird clubs up ;)  (as an example for myself)

I am doing a project with Atta Texana.  I have 2 questions.  First, like the Acromyrmex genera, does Atta Texana's metapleural glad secrete antibiotics too?  So far I have found that it only secretes pheromones such as the alarm pheromone.  Secondly, what is the range of Atta Texana?  I have read that they have traveled as far as the Mississippi/Louisiana border...but have also heard they have been found in south central Alabama.  Thanks for any help.

The genus Atta is the pinnacle of Attine evolution, with 15 species representing the premier leaf-cutting ants. The huge queens, well over an inchlong, are efficient egg-laying machines, giving rise to worker populations as large as several million individuals. The workers are strongly polymorphic, varying in length from about 1/16 to 5/8 inches, and correspondingly, a several hundred-fold increase in body weight! \n\nThis is what I could find on the Atta...Here is the website on the total Leafcutter Ants issus...well one website anyways. (The first site listed is what I found this info under)

Actually I'm pretty sure that anyone interested in a cryogenic explosion is working on a chemical theory problem rather than Arctic terrorism.\nAn answer to a previous copy of this question said that reactions go too slowly at such a low temp. Well, an interesting property of solid rocket propellants (and perhaps TNT) is that the combustion rate increases with increasing pressure. In many rockets this effect overrides the rate dependence on temperature, and they can be launched over a range of ambient (and propellant) temperatures. If unconfined though, such propellants don't have the pressure effect to help them burn. But since high explosives can explode unconfined at higher temperatures, the detonator may provide enough initial pressure (in addition to the shock wave) to enable the explosive to fully explode. Just a thought. Probably it would take experimentation to validate this guess.

how many incidents are there realted to video game violence are there recorded and how many are in countries where firearms are redily available?

No human violence should be linked to video games.  If parents are going to let their kids play violent video games, they then have the responsibility to explain to their children the difference between make believe and reality.

I found all sorts of stuff on google video. i have an empty memory stick but when i follow the instructions for downloading the movie, it will say the movie is downloaded but it is not shown on the memory stick.It is shown on the computer when i connect the USB cable and takes up space on the memory stick but the movie does not appear anywhere on the PSP.What do I do?

Ok.. here's what you have to do.\n\n1) Open the memory stick up.\n2) At the top level of the stick, create a folder named MP_ROOT\n3) Inside the MP_ROOT folder, create another folder named 100MNV01\n4) Inside the 100MNV01 Folder, place your movie.\n5) The movie must be named 'M4VXXXX.MP4'. Where XXXX = a unique 4 digit number (use any 4 digits).  Each movie must have its own number.. as an example, M4V0001.MP4\n\nI recommend using PSP Video 9 for keeping track of, managing, copying and creation of thumbnails for movies for the PSP.  It also lets you convert movies from other formats specifically for use on the PSP.  For right now, PSP Video 9 is free.. but they do accept donations.


allright who cares about bush i think hes a faggot and i would like to know what are peoples opinion to see if hes a good president im doing a school work on that so help me people

Let me fill you in on some info: Blade (Wesley Snipes) returns as the ultimate vampire hunter in the explosive third and final film, BLADE TRINITY. For years, Blade has fought against the vampires in the cover of the night. But now, after falling into the crosshairs of the FBI, he is forced out into the daylight, where he is driven to join forces with a clan of human vampire hunters he never knew existed--THE NIGHSTALKERS. Together with Abigail (JESSICA BIEL) and Hannibal King (RYAN REYNOLDS), two deftly trained Nightstalkers, Blade follows a trail of blood to the ancient creature that is also hunting him, the original vampire, Dracula. Now, if Dracula was the original vampire from 6,000-7,000 years ago; how come Blade didn't die when he killed Dracula in the end? All of a sudden Blade falls into a deep slumber. The ending, I really didn't get, did you?

i have to admit that i did enjoy the movie.  but, it did not have the same feeling, for lack of a better word, to it.  blade was barely elaborated on.  i don't know if blade was meant to be portrayed this way, but his character seemed tired.  the storyline was cut too short.  it should not have been PG-13.  that's like when they made AVP PG-13.  it's just wrong.  the reason, to my understanding, that blade went into a deep slumber was because the DAYSTAR virus affected his vampire nature and slowed his heart and metabolism.  DRAKE also lived.  have you seen the alternate ending?  CRAP is the best word to describe it.  the soundtrack was awesome and the fighting was ok.  i liked hannibal's wit and humor.  especially when he kept irritating blade.  i really liked jennifer biel's character.  she was awesome.  she kicked major vampire booty!!  my husband thinks she's hot.  sigh...men!  well, i think hannibal is cute.  anyways, sidetracked.  the movie seemed to have a tired, wash-outed feeling to it.  i miss the blade from the first two movies.


i haven't talked to her since novemeber. it was the stupedist fight EVER. we were at dinner, her, her bf, me, and one of their friends. when the check came we were trying to figure out how to pay, and she took the check and was STARING at the thing for ever, and we were makin jokes sayin we were confused or she was confused, and she throws a HUGE hissy fit about how we called her an idiot, when we say we didn'tm she says "in so many words" so really, like, wtf?! when we went back to her place she freaks out, leaves and hen she comes back she goes upstairs with her bf and they're up there for 2 hours talkign, not coming down at all so, i have the other guy drive me home. we haven't talked since. and i don't wanna call her cuz i wasn't wrong. what should i do?

you sound like you really want to renew this friendship, if so then you need to bite the bullet and take the first step. its not easy but life is too short and she probably feels the same way as you do and missed your friendship. dont wait give her  a ring and let bygones be bygones. good luck.


I used to think green or yellow meant infection but the doctor told me not necessarily. The more moisture it looses the darker it will become, that is why boogers are yellow and green. Fowl odor, headache etc usually mean there is an infection.


i need to know this so i can go ahead and be able to plan my summer so i can work around my sculede and make sure they take teenagers please?

Check with your local YMCA...when I was a teenager they had specific classes for childcare, it was an 8 hour course held on Saturday that taught basic child care, CPR, and other first aid!!  Good Luck.  (or your local community center)

i bought a Windows XP that was used at a public school and wont let me go into some websites.

Most likely, "content advisor" is what's blocking your access to certain sites.  It's built into Internet Explorer.  You can google "disable content advisor" and find ways to remove the registry key to disable it, but if it's a used computer anyways, I'd format and reinstall your OS.


I get hit with static alot at my job sometimes arcing 2 or 3 inches. I can feel it sometimes hours later.

Current burns, voltage jerks the muscles.  Too much current, you're toast.  Too much voltage, your heart stops.\n\nStatic built up from rubbing your socks on the carpet probably won't kill you.\n\nSeveral years back, in the wintertime, there were some news reports of people whose car blew up at the gas pumps.  Supposedly it was due to static electricity.\n\nIt's rare to get "shocked" outside when getting in or out of one's car or touching it or whatever but it does happen.  I remember a couple times in the past 5 years when it happened to me. A tiny percentage of times I have done that but way more than zero.\n\nSo, I guess the combination of a spark and being by your open gas tank could kills you, indirectly.\n\nTaking an extreme counter-example, there was a girl struck by lightening at the WHFS alternative rock festival in DC a few years ago. Apparently it knocked her a few feet from where she was standing.  But, it didn't kill her.  She was lucky.\n\nStatic charges build up more easily in wintertime. The air is dryer.  Something about the air molecules is different when there is less moisture.  I forget what, but you have probably noticed more "static" shocks in winter than any other time of year, unless you live in a really cold, dry place.\n\nA three inch spark seems pretty far.\n\nIn high school physics class, they said that each inch that a spark travelled off a sphere through the air indicated 10,000 volts.  I think it was 10,000.  Well, you're not a sphere and you are probably not touching one but that still seems like a lot.\n\nI used to get shocks of half or three quarters of an inch  when touching the corners of walls at the house I grew up in all the time.  That was really nothing.  I barely felt it.  It was just a surprise to feel it, and also to see the spark leap between the wall and your finger.\n\nModern buildings have grounding wires on all the outlets and stuff like that, to prevent electrical problems.  Not sure what really old buildings are like.\n\nIf you are wearing a sweater or wool clothing, that could increase the amount of static charge you build up.  There are all kinds of things that could do it.\n\nIf it happens on warm, humid days when you are not wearing any wool or sweaters, that would really be strange.  If not, maybe it is what you are wearing or the atmosphere that is mostly responsible.\n\nAlso, carpet is a big factor.\n\nFeeling it hours later, that's freaky. That never happened to me.


I splashed a lot of hot grease on my right arm when I was in college and spent two days in the burn unit. Man...that HURT!

car accident.. skull fracture, internal injuries,all sinuses collapsed in face, plastic surgery to face, eyes black&blue swollen shut for 5 days.  Therefore having skull fracture was not allowed pain meds. Was told to grin and bear it.

Ever see all the lint that you collect in the lint catcher in the dryer?  Same principal.  Your not just getting the lint from that one small area of your shirt, either.  Plus, some of it is probably dead skin, too.

i want to know if there's any website that i can request a credit report at cost?

Yes, I will not bother with the list because you can see the ads all over the place.  Here is the caveat though, the reports are free, the credit services that you have to sign up for to get the free reports are not free.  When you sign up for the free credit report, you are also signing up for credit service.  To keep from getting charged from these services, you need to cancel the service quickly.\n\nAdded:  Oh yeah, I forgot about annual credit report.


What search engines do you tell them to just type in their questions on?\nDo you point them to Yahoo Answers or something similar instead of just a search engine?\nDo you put aside a couple of hours a month (or more/less) to sit with them and address their questions?\nDo you wish you had better resources for them to use and if so, what?

I'm an expert skier but do not have a medical background

If you're an expert skier you would probably already know how.  However, most ski resorts (at least here in Utah) have ski patrol tryouts or a junior ski patrol program.  You don't need to be a doctor to be on patrol but you will need basic things like CPR training. Some patrols do complete in house training and certification.  The easiest way to find out what you need to do would be to call the patrol you're interested in joining and find out their requirements. However, if you're trying to get on the Alta ski patrol just don't be an A hole. They have enough already

Sorry, but I think you need to do this yourself.  Here are some guidelines though; give them a try.\n1.  Make a line drawing so you can see the info you're given and the path to the required answer.\n2.  Make a list of ALL the related formulae you were given.  Check each one against the given data; if you find one in which you have all the variables EXCEPT one, substitute and solve for the unknown.\n3.  Sometimes, you may have to use one formula to find a variable and THEN use that in ANOTHER formula to arrive at your ansver.\n\nGood luck!!

he is the one always making the first move and i want to dress up something sexy for him what do i do?

You should talk about what he is turned on by, then decide what to wear because people have different taste. My boyfriend goes for the whole panty-hose, lacey bra and panties thing, but over that i wear something that gets his attention , like low cut shirts and short skirts, so that his mind is thinking about what is under my clothing. Good Luck


I am considering investing in an international fund.

Higher interest rate say in Japan(lol) than the U.S. would cause a demand shift for Yen over dollars. The value of Yen would rise, and the dollar would fall. U.S. goods would then become cheeper for Japaneese citizens than previously were, and Japaneese good would be more expensive for U.S. citizens. Japan would import more from the U.S. and export less, the U.S. would export more and import less from Japan.


Now is your time. Share your favorite bible verse and the reference. Time to share God's word.

"O Lord, You have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit or stand. When far away You know my every thought. You chart the path ahead of me, and tell me when to stop and rest. Every moment, You know where I am. You know what I am going to say before I even say it. You both precede and follow me, and place Your Hand of blessing on my head.\nThis is too glorious, too wonderful to believe! I can NEVER be lost to Your Spirit! I can NEVER get away from my God! If I go up to heaven, You are there; if I go down to the place of the dead, You are there. If I ride the morning winds to the farthest oceans, even there Your Hand will guide me, Your strength will support me. If I try to hide in the darkness, the night becomes light around me. For even darkness cannot hide from God; to You the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are both alike to You.\nYou made all the delicate, inner parts of my body, and knit them together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! It is amazing to think about. Your workmanship is marvelous- and how well I know it. You were there while I was being formed in utter seclusion! You saw me before I was born and scheduled me each day of my life before I began to breathe. Everyday was recorded in Your Book! \nHow precious it is, Lord, to realize that You are thinking about me constantly! I can't even count how many times a day Your thoughts turns towards me. And when I waken in the morning, you are still thinking of me! \n\nSearch me, O God, and know my heart; test my thoughts. Point out anything You find in me that makes You sad, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.


Hello\nDear Sirs,\nThanks a lot for your answer especially from Trevor, you all said I need copyright permission if I want to use any part of movie in my project but some mentioned to some exception too that of course it is not near to my project but I want to tell whole story and ask you think instead of me and give me your idea and please consider that my decision would be according to your idea.\nThere is travel agency here that takes tourists to Europe and Asia, they asked me to make a travel guide movie for three European countries, Spain, Italy and England and they gave me some footage and pictures about these countries.\nIn this project I should introduce these countries to their tourists, show historical places, markets, streets and … in 15 minutes but the footages I have it is not enough for example I don’t have any scene about the prado museum in Madrid so I bought some travel DVD, then I talked to that DVD producer and asked them for ... (please read the rest in detail page)

Well talking to the DVD producer was the right thing to do, and because it is their footage they can control the pricing.  If you use their footage, and you didn't have permission/pay fee's, then they could sue you for copywrite infringment, which with legal costs could outweigh the profit's you made off the film.\n\nI would try to find a local film director/producer that lives in the areas you are looking for, and pay them a fee for their films instead of using that directors footage.  There are a lot of amateurs out there that could provide footage for cheaper I'm sure.


Whilst travelling in Indiana my husband was told that American Americans couldn't and we were astonished. Who knows something about this?

Yes, I astonished to hear about this as well. I found an excellent resource with more information about this.\nhttp://college.hmco.com/history/readerscomp/naind/html/na_041800_voting.htm\n\nFor all the hue and cry about Civil rights, the rightful people are not getting their due. It's really sad to hear this.

do you think that sound all people thats illegal aliens back ? are they a threat to us ? are they taking our jobs? what if they dont speak english ?

let me put it simply,there is no need sending anyone back.they are no threat at all.in fact to be frank with you these people are already here.if they were a threat,it would have been obvious.all they require now is to be put into the system so they pay taxes like everyone else.instead of cheating the government,which is what will happen if they are left to keep on working and keeping it to themselves.they are not taking our jobs in fact they should be changing our attitude towards work.if our African American brothers can see how ambitious these immigrants are perhaps they would stop the violence and work instead of hanging out selling drugs and coming in and out of jail.


I am afraid that the radiation is escaping from the microwave and can be harmful to anyone standing around it. Am I right to be concerned?

Checking Ovens For Leakage\n\nThere is little cause for concern about excess microwaves leaking from ovens unless the door hinges, latch, or seals are damaged, or if the oven was made before 1971. In FDA's experience, most ovens tested show little or no detectable microwave leakage. If there is some problem and you believe your oven might be leaking excessive microwaves, contact the oven manufacturer, a microwave oven service organization, your state health department, or the nearest FDA office. Some oven manufacturers will arrange for your oven to be checked. Many states have programs for inspecting ovens or they may be able to refer you to microwave oven servicing organizations that are equipped to test ovens for excessive emission. A limited number of ovens are also tested in homes by FDA as part of its overall program to make sure that ovens meet the safety standard.\n\nA word of caution about the microwave testing devices being sold to consumers: FDA has tested a number of these devices and found them generally inaccurate and unreliable. If used, they should be relied on only for a very approximate reading. The sophisticated testing devices used by public health authorities to measure oven leakage are far more accurate and are periodically tested.\n\nTips on Safe Microwave Oven Operation\n\nFollow the manufacturer's instruction manual for recommended operating procedures and safety precautions for your oven model. \nDon't operate an oven if the door does not close firmly or is bent, warped, or otherwise damaged. \nNever operate an oven if you have reason to believe it will continue to operate with the door open. \nTo add to the margin of safety already built into the oven, don't stand directly against an oven (and don't allow children to do this) for long periods of time while it is operating. \nUsers should not heat water or liquids in the microwave oven for excessive amounts of time.


Its a follow up question posted by me.. here's the original question.......\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjB_hEnBIET36ARgfmyHgMjsy6IX?qid=1006032112447

on red blood cells there are two major antigens A and B among other minor antigens.these designate one's blood group.\nBlood group O is indicative of one having no blood group antigens on his/her red blood cells.\nfor any blood group antigen there's a corresponding blood group antibody in the blood fluid i.e plasma or serum.for example if you are blood group A then your blood will have antibody B,if you have blood group B then you have antibody A.however if one is blood group O then that means that you have both antibodies A and B,and if you are blood group AB then you have no major blood group antibodies i.e neither antibody A nor B is present in your plasma.now if a blood group A person receives any blood group other than A or O then the antibodies in the plasma cause clumping(coming together)of the foreign blood cells.this causes blocking of the blood vessels with disastrous results.please note that it's the foreign blood cells that are clumped by the native antibodies if they match i.e A with Antibody A,B with antibody B,O with either A or B and AB by none.for this reason O can donate blood to any blood group but cannot receive blood except from another O and AB can receive blood from anyone but cannot donate their blood to anyone except AB.there is another group of antigens known as the rhesus factors.one is either rhesus positive(+) or negative(-).therefore a blood group O+ can donate blood to any rhesus+ blood group and blood group AB+ can receive any rhesus+ blood group.hence to answer your question blood group O can take blood only from an O of the correct rhesus factor

using for market research project.  This could have taken place in the 60'-80's.  yes, the famous "urban-myth" was that the word NOVA meant "does not go" in Spanish and therefore the Chevy Nova didn't sell well----but it was successful in Latin America.  thanks.

The vehicle most commonly referred to as the "Chevrolet Nova" (also known as the Chevy II) was sold in several Spanish speaking countries including Mexico and Venezuela between 1972 and 1978. Your correct that the urban myth surrounding the story of the Nova is incorrect.  “No va” and “Nova” in Spanish clearly do not have the same meanings and possess unique pronunciations.  Actually Pemex the Mexican government’s sponsored oil monopoly sells gasoline under the name “Nova” to this day. \nThe question of how many Novas were sold in Spanish Speaking markets is a difficult one to answer in part because there have been four generations of novas since 62’ and designs for models sold outside the US were often modified to the point of resembling a different vehicle all together (So you get in to the question of "what exactly was a Nova"). \nhttp://www.novaresource.org/history.htm - is probably going to be your best bet on finding some real numbers to work with, and if you don’t find what your looking for there are digital communities associated with that site that know a frightening amount about the Nova :)\n\nIt's nice to see a marketing guy who knows what he's talking about.\n\nI’ll include some more links to pertinent information for your use.


It's my dream to create my own schemas. Also, is XML that damn tough? How would you rate it?

Absolutely NOT. It's easy. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the easiest, I rate it 10! I learned it in less than a day, of only practicing. I learned XML from W3Schools.com. XSLT is harder.\n\nXML:\n\nMake up your own tags.\n\nStart up notepad or something like that.\n\nnow you always need to start an xml file with the following code:\n\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\nNow you can start writing. For organization, skip a line after the: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\nStart your tags. Unlike html, in xml, you can write your own tags. Instead of having the  tag, I am going to use <xml>, as the main tag. But you can use anything you'd like.\n\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\n<xml>\n\n</xml>\n\n\nNow we will write our body. The xml tags are like the html tags in html, just the whole cover up. We need new tags for our main body. I will use the following as a body tag "body".\n\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\n<xml>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n</xml>\n\nWe will write two different body things for this example. Now we have a body, which we will add a title. So our title tag will be called "title". And we'll add a blog, so our blog tag will be "blog".\n\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\n<xml>\n\n<title></title>\n<blog></blog>\n\n\n\n<title></title>\n<blog></blog>\n\n</xml>\n\n\nNow we can start adding text to the title and blog. Add the text in between the >< of both tag sets. I made an example.\n\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>\n\n<xml>\n\n<title>This is My First</title>\n<blog>This is the blog part!</blog>\n\n\n\n<title>I made XML LIVE!</title>\n<blog>XML NOW LIVES IN ME!</blog>\n\n</xml>\n\nFor starters, you can use CSS to view the xml file.\n\nBut now save the file as: myxml.xml, MAKE SURE YOU ADD THE .xml part.


My future husband and I own a casino entertainment business, which is actually how we met.  He also proposed when he took me to Las Vegas on my birthday.  We have set our wedding date for 07-07-07.  What do you think about a casino reception--- cocktail party with hors d'oeuvres complete with poker and blackjack tables.

I think you should do it!!! It's very unique to both of you, which makes it a great way to "personalize" your union.  Congratulations!!


I am a caregiver 2 x a week for a lady with pd so her husband can get away a bit. She is telling me that he is keeping things from her,like not letting her open the mail, finance decisions, etc. and is angry and cries about this.\nHe won't let her touch the mail if it's important, cuz she mixes things up and loses things. She had an 18 inch pile of mail on the table when I started there and a couple feet of clothes on the bed. She thinks she is cleaning these things up but she just keeps moving them around!!! Why is this???\nShe once told me he hit her so I called the agency and they met with her and she changed it to he pushed her down in a chair. She wants to be so independent that she does not keep herself safe and frequently falls.She is so willful, not sitting down to let me put on her pants.She thinks she can just walk around w/o her walker, and sometimes she can and sometimes she can't but doesn't seem to have the judgement to know when. 75 years old and it's hard to keep up with her. He also wants me to control her spending when HE can't. She spent 900.00 one day on 3 pants and 1 suit jacket. It's embarrasing to try to tell her anything in the stores, of course the clerks want to sell. She had a gambling problem in the past, now it seems to be buying things.\nSometimes she is obviously confused and other times not. She wants me to take her to the bank for money and I can't do it anymore. I found hundreds of dollars mixed in the papers and magazines on her table. I never throw anything out w/o checking if there is money in it.\nThis is extremely difficult, being between the 2 of them. He seems like a very kind, sweet man, but not according to her. She is so angry at him and he is constantly caring for her. I talked him into 2 days of respite a week because I thought he was going to burn out and he seems a bit better now. She says he calls her bad names sometimes, and he says she is confused. Many times he gets little sleep. When I am there she is very high maintainance, wanting something every time I sit down. I never let her walk alone even with a walker and my own hip is giving me pain. I am only 51. She wants to go to store after store. We do enjoy going out to lunch 2 x a week and we are great friends most of the time.\n\nMy 2 main concerns are her lack of care about keeping herself safer and her anger at him. I guess the shopping thing is very hard too. I am the only person who will take her to a store. She wants everything she sees. Literally.\n\nIf anyone can clue me in, I would really appreciate it. Kathy

Sounds like dementia. Maybe the husband needs to declare her incompotent and become her legal guardian and power of attorney if she is becoming too much for him to handle he should consider an assisted living or nursing home good luck


Ecc 1:4 [One] generation passeth away, and [another] generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.

Nice to see you again Rev. Here is the full chapter along with my take on it.\n\nEcclesiastes 1 (New International Version)\nNew International Version (NIV)\nCopyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society\nEcclesiastes 1\nEverything Is Meaningless \n 1 The words of the Teacher, [a] son of David, king in Jerusalem: \n 2 "Meaningless! Meaningless!" \n       says the Teacher. \n       "Utterly meaningless! \n       Everything is meaningless." \n\n 3 What does man gain from all his labor \n       at which he toils under the sun? \n\n 4 Generations come and generations go, \n       but the earth remains forever. \n\n 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, \n       and hurries back to where it rises. \n\n 6 The wind blows to the south \n       and turns to the north; \n       round and round it goes, \n       ever returning on its course. \n\n 7 All streams flow into the sea, \n       yet the sea is never full. \n       To the place the streams come from, \n       there they return again. \n\n 8 All things are wearisome, \n       more than one can say. \n       The eye never has enough of seeing, \n       nor the ear its fill of hearing. \n\n 9 What has been will be again, \n       what has been done will be done again; \n       there is nothing new under the sun. \n\n 10 Is there anything of which one can say, \n       "Look! This is something new"? \n       It was here already, long ago; \n       it was here before our time. \n\n 11 There is no remembrance of men of old, \n       and even those who are yet to come \n       will not be remembered \n       by those who follow.\nThe word abide has a slight range of meaning.**abide by : to act or behave in accordance with or in obedience to**\nIt helps to have the context. This passage is an emotional cry. The author is realizing his insignificance and compares his temporal life on Earth to the age and lawfulness of the Earth. This understanding is essential to saving faith. Try reading it again and try to identify with the writer.


never be what he wants?  he hides it behind my back and i find papers with web address's and pic's on his jumpdrive.

I am a recovering addict that thought that getting married would solve my problem. Honestly- many guys become addicted, but society tells them that it is no big deal, all the other guys do it. Society tells them that MB is no big deal and everyone does it. Some men (and even some women) become addicted. Many of them think that once they get married and can 'have the real thing almost anytime' that the problem will just go away. Well for some it might but for many it doesn't. I did not marry my wife because I wanted her to fix my addiction (I didn't even consider it an addiction at the time)- but I thought that once I got married my urge to look at porn and mb would just go away. When it didn't, I spent a lot of time convincing myself that it really was not a big deal (and found plenty of sites like this one with people saying I shouldn't worry about it). I even started to think that my wife was the one with the problem, she should just relax and not get so uptight. \n\nLet me tell you how it affected me. The more I used- the more I became frustrated with my wife, and the less I tried to connect with her in any way other then sexually. I was not there for her in any way shape or form- emotionally, spiritually, and as a friend. I think she could sense that and it caused my marriage to discentegrate. She became frustrated with me and I needed an outlet and the cycle just kept getting wose. \n\nIt is a big deal. He may or may not be addicted- you can't tell at this point because you don't know if he has tried to quit. You do need to confront him for your and his sake. I suppose there are some people out there that can keep it under control- keep it from getting wosre but I guarantee that there are many who don't realize what it is doing to them as a person, and that they are getting worse. \n\nI can absolutly tell you that once I quit (after getting help - I couldn't quit on my own)- that my relationship with my wife improved drastically. You don't really know how much more sweat and wonderful your husband could be if he didn't use porn, because he has probably had this problem for as long as you have know him. I will guarantee you that if he abandons it he will be able to be there for you so much better then he is now. A man cannot look at that stuff and not have it affect his opinion of women, he cannot consume it regularly and not have it effect his ability to connect with people. It is distorting his perspective of women, it is distorting his perspective of intimacy, and it is keeping him from reaching his true potential. I am way more in tune with my wife's needs now that I have abandoned it.  \n\nI will tell you I am forever greatful that my wife didn't just let me have that vice (EG:She didn't let me keep living beneath myself). I am so glad that she was willing to be vulnerable enough to let me see how it really affected her, how it really hurt her. I am also glad that she gave me the chance to change my behavior, and that she was patient with me while I went through some relapses. She was also very open with me and didn't let me think that relapses were ok, she didn't let me keep giving her excuses. I had been trying to abandon it for years, and she finally came to a point where she left me because I was not really getting better. When she did, I finally 'hit rock bottom' and got serious about getting help. I made some dramatic progress toward recovery because I really did love her and did want to abandon the addiction and when she finally made it clear that I couldn't have both- I decided to choose her! (I sincerely believe she did not do this as a manipulation- but that she had finally hit a point where she just couldn't live with a man who kept emotionally cheating on her, and was not able to be there for her).  \n\n\nIn my opinion, the best thing to do is to be very clear and honest about how his decision to consume porn makes you feel


Am I racist in thinking that this country is being spoilt by endless streams of lawless immigrants?

I think the Britain of Churchill's era was pretty great.  What I don't understand is how the brave and amazing people of the UK can roll over and let themselves be trampled by political correctness and blatantly hostile cultures taking root in their very midst.  I love my cousins across the pond, but I fear for your future.

How To Destroy America\n10-31-2003\n\nLast week, I attended an immigration-overpopulation conference in Washington, DC, filled to capacity by many of America's finest minds and leaders. Writers, speakers, CEO's, representatives from Congress such as Tom Tancredo as well as former governors graced the podium. Bonnie Eggle, mother of the national parks ranger Chris Eggle, slain by Mexican drug runners last year on our unguarded southern border--gave a compelling speech that left not one dry eye in the place. Peter Gadiel, father of Jamie Gadiel, spoke powerfully on how the World Trade Center took his son and how nothing has been done since--to stop the flow of illegal immigration into the United States. Even with the façade of Tom Ridge's Homeland Security, 800,000 illegal aliens continue walking, crawling or tunneling across the Mexican border annually. Their accelerating numbers are undermining America's ability to function.\n \nDuring the conference, speaker after speaker astounded the audience with facts on how fast the present administration and congress continue dismantling the American Dream for average citizens. Mr. Rob Sanchez of Arizona, showed how H1 B and L 1 visas have ripped one million high tech jobs out of American worker's hands. Another speaker told a packed audience how 'offshoring' and 'outsourcing', fully supported by the president and congress have cost over three million American jobs in the past six years. His prediction was even more depressing: "In excess of three million more jobs will be 'outsourced' within four years. Those American jobs are headed to Mexico, India, China, Pakistan and Brazil." Later, a brilliant college professor named Victor Hansen Davis talked about his latest book, 'MEXIFORNIA', explaining how immigration, both legal and illegal, was destroying the entire State of California. He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of the American Dream.\n \nMoments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm, stood up and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America. This writer sat in the audience spellbound by the eight methods for destruction of the United States.\n \nHe said, "If you believe that America is too smug, to self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America. It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall, and that, "An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide."\n \n"Here is how they do it," Lamm said. "Turn America into a bilingual or multi lingual and bicultural country. History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar Seymour Lipset put it this way, "The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and tragedy. Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon-all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons and Corsicans."\n \nLamm went on, "Invent 'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants to maintain their own culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences. I would make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds."\n \n"We could make the United States an 'Hispanic Quebec' without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said


Several factors may affect someone being receptive to God. \n\n- The environment in which they were raised. A person might have been born in a Christian family and so chances they will also become a Christian. Or a person could have been raised in a non believing family and chances are they will be non believers. \n\n- A person may have had a bad experience and blame that on God and so reject Him. He may have prayed for something and when the prayer went unanswered he concluded there is no God. \n\n- A person may have a scientific mind and think that God is just a myth. Although there really is no reason science and Christianity don't go hand in hand. Many scientists are Christians.\n\n- A person may have seen bad behavior from Christians and say I want no part of that.\n\n- A person may have never been exposed to God or faith. \n\nUltimately faith is a gift from God. Nobody comes to God unless God calls them. God gives people the ability to respond. God opens the eyes of the believer. God makes the hearer receptive to His call.


they seem to worship me even though I am not that special really. do they just like me because I am older and maybe wiser? I dont get it. They are fine, but I cannot be really close friends with them because they are just so young/inexperienced in life for me. But they call me I am their best friend ever! Help!

its the thrill of an older man. honestly you should keep your distance. in cases like that. their feelings could advance and you might not feel the same way. all they ahve to do is say you made a move on them and your @ss is in jail and there is nothing you can do to save yourself

In this answer I am going to refer you to an online calculator. The power company is simply trying to get an idea of your power requirements to establish a transformer and feeder size for your home. I will also tell you in this article va is the same as wattage. You will need to know the square footage of the home , whether you have gas or electric range and dryer , small appliance and laundry circuits are a given in all homes. 2-small appliance and 1 laundry . Also needed air conditioning load if applicable , or heat pump if applicable etc. If you have a copy of the National Electrical code available to you there is a sample house load section for single family dwellings that will  be helpful. But I truly feel for your purposes the following site will give you everything with a simple fill in the blanks format. If you have any questions Ill be happy to help. Ok heres the url for the calculator.  http://www.electricalknowledge.com/SFDLoadCalc.asp


Normal eating habits are exaggerated by stress, especially in college, which is often the first time a person has been on their own and responsible for their own diet.  A person who normally has a poor appetite will not be able to eat due to stress.  A person who has a compulsive eating habit will munch constantly and gain a lot of weight as stress increases.  I gained a huge amount of weight in college, was not able to stick to a diet and exercise regimen until after graduation.


its because i keep on trying to play that game and somehow it just sudenly pops away.

It can be because you havent installed  the  flash player or shock wave player


Yogic lifestyle considers tea "not pure", arguing that it disturbs the mind, and shouldn't be consumed. Tibetan Monks, however, do consume tea.\n\nAnybody got any more information about the use and restriction of drugs, specially tea, garlic and LSD, on meditation?

When they consume tea the tea has been seeped of caffeine. You can decaffienate tea by seeping a tea bag until it makes a dark tea, pour out that cup and make a new cup, it wont have caffeine in it.

In high school, you are givin a label...you are either a goth/punk rocker, anime freak, nerd, dork, jock, preppy, or popular.

People give labels because it is their way of categorizing people. It's pretty much a lame form on sterotyping. It helps them figure out who they can hang around with and who they should stay away from. I've found that everyone who has those labels are fun! I hung out with the "jocks", "nerds", and the "druggies" and they all brought something to the table in a friendships. Unfortunatly, labels don't stop in high school. People will label you throughout your life. It's stupid, but it's a way people can make assumptions about you before they know you. They best way to break these labels is to just talk to people. They will see that you're not just a "goth, punk, freak, nerd, etc" and see that you're really none of those.


I have been friends with her for over 5 yrs. Was with her intimately for about two years. Had a child with her 2yrs ago. I really care about her but she says she will never be with me again. Pls dont just say go out and get laid cause that will not solve the problem. I love her dearly and know she is with other guys. I think she really does love me just cant figure out how to be back together with me. We have alot of rocky issues of the past. I still love her though. Thanks for all help.

I would be glad that you guys are still friends and just keep her close. Let her feel not just know that you are there no matter what....when guys do her wrong...or when she's scared...or sick or just needs someone to listen to her. That's more then anything you could give her at this time. She'll soon see if the love is true that you've been buy her side ever since...in due time. Both of you will grow and she'll see that so whatever rocky issues you guys had, you now can get over how-ever you all choose.


Sometimes, while at school, I feal worryed about how I look, like how my hair is, or how my close looks.  It sometimes make me paranoid distracting from my school work.  If anyone has some advise, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you so much! ! ! ! \n\nP.S.\nSorry about any miss spells. That's a skill I lack ;)

well, you need to nip this in the bud now, or you will be plagued by it your whole life\n\nlife is a lot easier when you stop caring about what other people think\n\nmost people learn that lesson as they get older, making them wish they had learned it sooner\n\nwhen i look at photos of myself in high school I think I look so cute!! at the time I DESPISED myself....and for what?\n\nyou have to accept you will never be as well dressed, as good looking or as put together as some.....\n\nand that you ARE in fact better dressed, better looking and more put together than others\n\nit's a huge world we all live in, people come in all shapes and sizes\n\nlove yourself, you are all you have got, and you are worth it

Apple designs and sell the best laptops in the world today. With the software already included in the computer, the Windows PC computer are equal in price. The Apple laptop is more stable and is easier to operate. The new duel core Apple laptop is one of the fastest on the planet. The support for Apple is rated the best by Consumer Reports. The Apple is spyware and adware free and virus free(except for a small worm which almost nobody got. Why do people even consider buying a Windows laptop? Windows platform is old and the new OS won't even be out until 2007. Then you will have so many bugs the machine will have even more trouble. Give me ONE reason to buy a Windows machine.

I have an Apple G4 17 and I absolutely love it because of all the reasons you said, and then some. Norm's answer was excellent because Apple is a better operating machine but Microsoft is bigger, which in new this world means better. Depending on what you're into you may need both machines to take advantage of both systems strengths. \n\nTheBoss?Yess!!!


I know the Steelers are the best team ever...but i was just wondering?

They played better than the Seahawks. Even if the calls weren't there they still would have won. People use that excuse when their team chokes


we talk laugh have a good time. my question is why cannot our goverments do it. its not hard.

you said and that is right. get the mongrols on yahoo answers and we would kill em with all of our fantastic answers.. AND HARD  it is for them if they smiled their face would crack..


Below is Ashante's racist poem:\n\n  "White nationalism is what put you in bondage\nPirate and vampires like Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nDrank the blood of the sheep, trampled all over them with\nSteel, tricks and deceit.\nNothing has changed take a look in our streets\nThe mis-education of she and Hegro -- leaves you on your knee2grow\nBlack lands taken from your hands, by vampires with no remorse\nThey took the gold, the wisdom and all of the storytellers\nThey took the black women, with the black man weak\nMade to watch as they changed the paradigm\nOf our village\nThey killed the blind, they killed the lazy, they went\nSo far as to kill the unborn baby\nYeah White nationalism is what put you in bondage\nPirates and vampires like Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nThey drank the blood of the sheep, trampled all over them with\nSteel laden feet, throw in the tricks alcohol and deceit.\nNothing has changed take a look at our streets. \n\n  It appears  this girl is a home daddy taught racist. However I have to agree with the other poster in that it sounds more like her daddy's writting than a 7 year old girl. \n\n  I do however believe she is a racist, a home grown racist in a home grown racist education atmosphere. She would put Al "Shakedown" Sharpton to shame.\n\n   The oddity and fact here is that we in America have only two protected types of racism. That being the racism of Blacks and that of Jews. Either one of these two  races could say and do anything and no one will even flinch . But let it be any other race and especially a white person and even more so now a middle eastern person and you've got  what is necessary for a riot.\n\n   Fact is there is white nationalism and this poor misinformed girl dosn't even understand it. In real White nationalism they wouldn't even think of owning slaves. In fact they want nothing to do with them and rightly so. True White natinalism would have never brought slaves over in the first place nor would they have anything to do with their women. If this young girl who is touted as intelligent knew anything true of history she would have never blamed her bondage on "Whites" but in fact would have put the blame on the Jews where it belongs. It is fact that Jews capitalized and controled the slave industry and were responsible for the greater slavery of the black peoples.\n\n  And what is with  "Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nDrank the blood of the sheep?" Does she mean real sheep blood or is she intending us to believe that they are implying that they are the sheep of  ( Israel-Gods chosen). If that is her intended farce then we know that this poem is mostly fiction and that of a true racist mind.\n\n She is misinformed about whites taking the blacks land from them. In fact it was the blacks whom were taken from their land and the blacks who sold their own into slavery and gave them their weak men for slavery. It was a joint business deal between the black slave traders and the Jewish slave traders.\n\n And she states " They took the black women," Who took them? Well, this is full of hypocrissy because in America it is the blacks who took the white women!\n\n "They killed the blind, they killed the lazy, they went\nSo far as to kill the unborn baby" Well those who kill the unborn baby are only half the problem, the other half belongs to the black woman who agrees with abortion. It is factual that more blacks have abortions in America than any other race. So how is that black decission a  white mans falt?\n\n "throw in the tricks alcohol and deceit."  Most deciet I have encountered in America is from the Black man. Not to mention that I am hit up for money by blacks some 2 dozen tims or more a year. No one makes the black man buy or lust after the alchohol. Their ideal is that since there are many more bars in black areas which cause more drunken black men that it is the fault of the white man.

You have a rare gift & I hope you have the help & support of others in your life.  These children are the true essence of what love & trust should be for all humans.  They are by far, the best judge of character of any humans I have encountered in my 53 years on this planet!  I helped raise a neighbors son for 5 years, until he turned 10 & she put him in an institution because the state agencies recomended it in the 1960's.  Everything he learned was discouraged, and he was reduced to a slobering imbecile.  When I would go on visits, he remembered that I had never mistreated him, and this made the nurses so upset they restricted his visits to his mother only.  His older brother and I treated him as any other child and he responded to us in a way that was frowned upon and not acceptable in that era.  We moved and lost contact with this family and I do not know what ever became of my friend.  They said he could never hold a spoon or feed himself, or dress himself.  They were wrong!  He just learned differently, and it took a lot of time and patience, as well as routine and repitition.  But most of all, it took lots of cleaning up and thinking up new ways to go about the things most "normal" people take for granted.  MOST IMPORTANT IS KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELF!(no hitting) One act of anger can take months, or years to heal on their part.  These are extremely sensitive beings and can be the first one to alert you to another persons (or animals) ill intentions.  They have the ability to judge character and intent on an immediate need basis without regard to another persons feelings.  They are stubborn beyond belief because they have to be to survive. They are extremely loving individuals and have memories for people, places and things that are astounding.  Once I was grocery shopping and a group was on an outing, and as I walked past the group, an adult suddenly held out her arms and rushed towards me as if we were old friends or close family! I figured it was ok to respond in the same manner, and the group leader almost had a cardiac arrest in the aisle.  She later told me that I looked a lot like the girls aunt and apoligized and thanked me for being so understanding.  She was concerned that I might file a lawsuit and it was then that I realized just how little some things had changed, and how much others had!  I would choose to be hugged by a person who has no hidden agenda, rather than the person who does.  You are not alone & I wish you all the best in life.

1- I have an Olympus camedia camera, and I´ve botched up the smart media card by formatting it on my PC, it´s a 64 mB card, I have the HEX editing  program, and the driver ( I believe they´re called Smart Prep files), the question is do I do the editing inside de card or do I use the PC and then move the files to the card.  I do it the way that I´ve been instructed to do and keep getting an error message.

I don't have this particular camera, but you should be able to format the card via the cameral itself. Under normal circumstances, you would download the files from the camera/card to the PC then edit them. The software that came with the camera should allow download/transfer of the files to a specified folder on the pc. If not, you should be able to move them (cut and paste) or copied. If this doesn't do it for you, try and find a local cameral shop... most have gone digital, and they can probably help you.  Good luck.

I work in the temporary work. I don't have a lot of time to act.

Just ask if he wants to out for drinks some time.  If he declines, then he is not interested, if he says maybe, then give him your phone number.  There's really no worst case scenario, so just ask.


1)where do you find hte largest deposits of mineral resources, human resources and and agricultural resources and why?\n2)Why do levels of economic development decline west to east?\n3) How does functional Specialization of Europe afford many opportunties for exchange?   \n  thank you:)   need help desperate

For the first two questions:\n1.The largest deposits of mineral, human and agricultural resources are in Russia.\n\n2. Development declines in Eastern Europe, because their countries don´t have the money and resources than Western Europe countries have. Remember that, 10 years ago, those were almost Communist countries, were free trade and freedom doesn´t exist.


I also need information on historical T-Bill yields...google has failed me

The standard reference is:  Ibbotson Associates' Stocks, Bonds, Bills, and Inflation.  It is updated annually.  The answer is 10.4% for stocks from 1926-2004.  3.8% for 1 month T-bills. The book costs $110 dollars, but you can find websites that use the Ibbotson data like these:


Make me laugh and this tme I PROMISE I'll give the best answer points!

Right lemme try:\n\nA man wanted to buy a car.So he heads to an open air car exhibition.It so happened that day the exhibition was quite empty.He has a look around, deciding which car he would buy.As he was walking along, looking at the cars, closely examining some, he suddenly came across a beautiful sports car.The car was simply beautiful.It was crimson red, full leather upholstery, huge rims, and slick design.Capivated by the cars beauty, he bends down to feel the texture of the leather seat.When he bends, he accidentally breaks wind.Hurriedly he stood up and looked around to see if there was anybody around.No one was around.Convinced that no one saw him, he countinued to examine the car.As he was examining the car, a salesman appeared.So the man asked the salesman what was the price of the car.The salesman answered,"Sir, frankly I would not want to say", so the man asks "Why?" and the salesman answers "Sir you farted just touching it.You are gonna shi-t when you hear the price!!!!!"\n\n;) Hoping for the 10 points.


I want to put a DOS partition (FAT32) on a hard drive that is currently formatted with a NTFS partition.  After deleting the partition, my format utility is telling me there is still a compressed partition on the drive and has a size of about 5GB, yet while using fdisk, I do not see any other partitions.  I have tried to write all zeros to the drive, but the compressed on NTFS file is still occupying drive space.  Is there a better utility to wipe the drive completely clean and get rid of the compressed file.?

You can use a linux live CD to format almost any partition scheme you want (live meaning that the OS runs off of a CD), here is one I use regularly, it has saved my computer/data several times, you will need a CD burner, and burning software that can burn .ISO disc image files (like NERO, or Record Now!):\nhttp://slax.linux-live.org/\n\nIf you want to completely wipe/zero out your hard drive, you can use this software (note that your hardrive will be completely erased, and all data on it will be unrecoverable, even by the best professionals):\nhttp://dban.sourceforge.net/\n\n............AND\ngojurokusai, I know what you are talking about, what it is saying, is that if you have formated a drive as NTFS, you cannot change it back to FAT32 without loosing data, however, you can "upgrade" your EXISTING FAT32 to NTFS without loosing any data, not to say that you cannot completely erase/reformat a NTFS partition, however you will loose all data... But with the proper tools, you can now go back to FAT32 from NTFS...\n\nWhich brings up a good point, if your willing to cough up about 40-60$, you can easily do about anything, with any kind of partition you can imagine, this is probably the easiest route to go, The utility is "Partition Magic", and it is made by "Norton/Symantec". Here is a link to the product:\nhttp://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/system_performance/pm80/index.html\n\n..and if that don't help you, PRAY!\n\nBest of Luck!

ok u know how they say that god created the earth and adam and eve, and all living things.  ok and the scientist say that we came from monkey or something like that also dinosaurs livd. the bible doesnt mention dinosaurs, what really happened theres proof (fossils, bones) of dinosaurs but the only proof that god created earth is a book that anyone many, many years ago could of wrote.

Bible says about the Adam and Eve, Quran also says in similar ways,\nIf going in detail in Quran of best translation and using our common sense we will come to know that,\nGod created universe, in his six days of creation, the Big bang happened, earth cooled down, life formed, plants came to being, animals came to being, in this six days only man also came from the descendants of apes.\n\nThe exact translation when u go, u will see that God talks about Six Eras not Six days.\n\nAdam is the first civilized being with intelligence among the humans in the shape of human(ape descendant). Therefore, he is called as the first man, and later Eve was also civilized under his influence. Thats the Gods creation of Man(civilized human among others).\n\nfor both of them it was like a paradise on earth, as they used to see the world with intelligent eyes and understand, but where thrown away from that paradise after getting the idea of evilness(that apple story), that means that wonderful life was no more after being sinful.\n\nUnderstand more and more with common sense, u will understand both science and God's creation together.

There's all these people who say 'the sky is falling' when it comes to developed societies having low birth rates, how it supposedly will result in western countries being overwhelmed by third world immigrants. If that's their concern, why don't they instead try to educate the poor masses on family planning and on improving the social staus of the women of these poor countries? Then we could more easily work towards managing global population and spare natural resources of which many are in very limited supply. No, you don't fight overpopulation with overpopulation.

I'm doing Master's degree out of my country. I never enjoy it even a day. Now I just have to write thesis only, but I'm depressed and spiritless. I feel very dry and dull. I kept doing it until now (2 years) because I was so sure that God had called me to do it (even though I actually really hated study). Now I just feel strongly that I don't want to do it anymore but I'm afraid of how my parents would feel as they have spent a lot of money for my studies, and if I stop I'm afraid that I would somehow miss the best God has provided for me. I'm Asian, while reading please try to understand me with Asian context and culture background. I'm absolutely unhappy here but I have no idea what can I do if I go back to my country. Frankly, I'm scared with all things in the future. I'm afraid of making a decision by "myself". I don't know what happen to me. \n\nPlease help!

You sound lonely.  You also sound afraid. You don't want to let down your family. What else???  \n\nI think it would help to talk to some of your peers that are in the same situation and also maybe to an Asian counselor.  Perhaps you  solvable problems that do not take drastic measures.  Maybe you are sick, maybe you are suffering from depression.  So many things, another head could help.

Distributing it is being an accessory to the molestation involved in its production, and creating more demand for it to be produced.  However, I believe US courts have ruled repeatedly that simulated child porn (either with actors age 18+ pretending to be younger, or using technology to simulate children that aren't there) to be protected as free speech (because no children are used/harmed in the production).  It's still creepy as hell, though.


Depends on the guy. Usually maybe a few times a day. After that for any guy, usually the drive is gone.


She was told by a doctor so she is waiting six weeks to the day.

All doctors say the same thing, so it is probably likely that they have done some research on the subject and that is the appropriate waiting and healing time.\nBesides, your wife just had a baby, and major abdominal surgery. The last thing on her mind right now is sex!\nBe a considerate husband and wait....Doctors orders, and consideration of your wife and what her body has just gone through.

Is it possiable to quit the national guard before you service commitment is up? I am between a rock and a hard place personally and the guard is a problem.

Yes, and by many means. Just make sure you do so BEFORE they are scheduled to deploy anywhere, or it will be a lot harder. The easiest way is to simply stop going to drills. yes you can get all sorts of hell for it it, but recruitment and retention in guard is SO low right now, they try NOT to give you a discharge that would prevent you from getting back in at a future point. The easiest way beside that, and perhaps the safest, is get an address at least 50 miles from your unit, were they dont have a unit availible with your MOS. The guard must offer to give you another job, but if its not your MOS, it, you can legallly refuse and its a discharge.If you havent done basic yet, or your schooling, when you go to meps, just tell them you have ashma and your recruiter told you to lie about it. They will instantly belive you and discharge you on the spot.


Alright... well i am an 18 year old female with a female significant other who is 16. We have been dating for almost 5 months now. Recently her parents found out. They asked that we stop all communication. Well this morning we were talking on the phone and her mother over heard. Her father was angered and thretned to send a warrant out on me. Is this right and can he do this? I have always been a nice girl never got in trouble but I am worried about this. thanks for helping me out.

I don't think talking on the phone constitutes a crime. However, having sex with a minor does. Also, since the girl is a minor, they could have a restraining order taken out against you. If you really care about this girl, you should probably stop seeing or talking to her. If you don't, you'll be causing a lot of problems between her and her parents, and since she's going to have to be there for a couple more years that's probably not such a good thing.


I am doing a Science project on Optical Illusions and I'm not finding anything on the "world wide web" that will help me find a reasonable answer.

Adaptations are hard-wired into our brains, and thus under some artificial manipulations can cause inappropriate interpretations of the visual scene. Or, as Purkinje put it: "Illusions of the senses tell us the truth about perception" (cited by Teuber, 1960).


I contend that men seek quantity in sexual relations and women seek quality. The two strategies are very different, but together they ensure the survival of the species. Any thoughts on the matter?

around the craft to propel it thru the air?

well, i don't see why not.  if you made the thrusters such that the thrust was directed tangentially, that would cause the saucer to spin in a circle.  if you then added some kind of protruding airfoils (like helicopter blades) these would provide lift, but in the upward (axial) direction.  \n\nhowever helicopters can fly forwards and backwards by essentially tilting their rotors;  i don't see any reason why that wouldn't work in this case as well.


Love is the foundermental of everything in life. how can it be carryout with full actions?

There isn't some magic formula to mix together to make love occur.  It is developed over time, with lots of conversation, lots of time and plenty of caring.  Some would say if you have to ask, it isn't love...I'm not sure I agree with that.  I would ask questions like; \nDo you think you could live without them?  \nWould you lay down your life for them?  \nWhat would you picture your life being like without them?  How do you feel when you are apart?  \nWould you trust the other person with your life and secrets?\nWhere do you picture yourself in 10 years?\nDo you truly feel you know the other person deeply?\nDo the faults in the other person bother you too much?\n\nThere are other questions, but these answers should go sort of like, though not exactly like, this;\nno, yes, empty/lost, empty/lost/missing part of myself, yes (cause you will be), with the person...maybe children and a home, yes (you need to know the person very deeply, otherwise, how can you know if you really love all of them?), and No...they have no faults LOL (jk), but you should be able to overlook their faults and dwell on their positive attributes.\n\nGood luck.


i like this boii named shawn and i am to scared that he will not talk to me or laugh at me. and we wont be friends.so how do i tell him.?\n\nplease help me.

Let me tell you this. its all up to you. It's either he likes you back or he doesn't. I've been in your exact situation before. I'm female and I developed feelings for my best friend who's also a girl. one day, we were just chatting about normal stuff and i basically blurted out to her that i had feelings for her. she told me that what she felt for me was totally platonic and she didn't think of me any other way. Honestly, it killed me for a while. However, today, the relationship that the two of us have is even closer than the one we had before i told her. We didn't have any sort of awkwardness between the two of us. The only shitty thing is that I still feel for her and although I make it seem like I don't feel for her anymore, inside, I just wanna kiss her everytime she opens her mouth to speak. But I have to say that I was really lucky cuz its really rare that two people can overlook the fact that one person feels more for the other than usual. The funniest thing is that til today, my confession is still discussed between the two of us. Recently, I just asked her if it was the right thing to tell her about it in the first place. And, according to her, my confession saved our friendship. Cuz she had already suspected, but she was in denial about it, seeing that i was her best friend and all. But if i had not told her anything, she'd feel weird and eventually take a step back from the friendship.\n\nSo, whatever you do, just follow what your heart tells you to do. You could jokingly bring it up as a suggestion if you don't want to take the direct approach. See how he reacts, and if it's positive, just let it slip. Say that, you didn't really expect it to happen but it just did and you felt that you needed to let him know.\n\nGood luck though.

illegal wiretapping, torture, rendition, detention and the Iraq war are gounds for Bushes impeachment - we have 4 cases supporting this arguement. I see this starting from a few snow flakes to an avalanche - in time.

My hope is that the Dems will push hard for impeachment THIS year.   I know they don't have the votes, but it would show them such utter fools --simply driven by Bush-hatred-- that they would suffer disastrously at the polls.\n\nOf course, the only way impeachment has the slightest chance is if the Democrats win back the House.  \n\nBut for such a move to gain the sort of traction it would need to succeed (much less for the Senate to actually vote to remove Bush) the American people (not just Democratic legislators) would have to go beyond disagreeing with specific Bush policies to actually believing he is guilty of one of the BOGUS charges you have listed here.   So long as people do NOT think Bush deliberately lied to go into Iraq, do not believe that he supports a "torture" policy, do not believe the NSA wiretap program is "domestic spying" or an unreasonable effort to protect Americans for terrorist plots -- in short, so long as the American people are reasonably SANE, impeachment has little chance, conviction has NONE.
