I have contacted the local officials at the court house and the tax assessor collector but have constantly been given the run-arounds. The most information I have recieved is the general coordanants and the general area but no physical address or directions. I cant afford a land surveyer but I've payed every penny of taxes and still no help. What do I have to do to find my land? Please help me.

Has the land been transferred into your name through the probate process?  In what state is this land located?\n\nIf so, GO IN PERSON to the county recorder's office and ask them to show you what land is in your name.  You should be able to take the coordinates you are given (or that you might already have) and look in the plat books to see the location of the land.  A plat book is a very thick book that has all the land in the county in it, and it shows who owns which parcel.  Since there is so much land in a county, there are probably multiple plat books for each county or township within the county.\n\nIf it is not in your name, it needs to be put in your name ASAP.  If no one has filed for probate to administer the estate of the deceased, hire a lawyer and file.  The legal costs will come out of the estate.

Another question for my class project. Please include your age with your answer. I still have 9 more questions to follow this one, as well as some I've asked already that still need answers. They are all listed under EDUCATION & REFERENCE--subcatagory HOMEWORK HELP, and they all start out\n"Teens ages 13-18--..." Your help in getting these questions answered is helping me out SO MUCH. Thanks for your help.

last year i knew a guy, a senior, who was gay, and everyone knew.  he was treated rude by some, and ignored by others.  i didnt know him too well.  but i do know that the drama kids were his friends.  i could tell that he has had a rude life, the other day i saw him on the bus, he looked just like he always did.  he seems to hate that he is different, which prolly means he has gotten a lot of negative remarks.\n\n16


how do people feel when they are sacked due to outsourcing and do they change their domain or search jobs in their own domain?

I think outsourcing is a horrible thing because it is yet another industry being taken away from America.  We used to be a manufacturing giant, but now nothing is made the in the USA.  Outsourcing our software and white collar jobs too now?  Come on.


First connect the psp with an usb cable to the computer and select USB connection on the psp. Go into My Computer. You should now see a drive on your computer labeled "Removable Disk". Usually, an E: drive or something later in the alphabet. Click on the removable disk and there should be a directory called "PSP". Double click on that directory and follow down to the "Music" directory. Copy your MP3s on your PSP by selecting and pasting them to this directory.\n\nThe total number of songs that you can copy is only limited by the size of the memory stick duo, so you can put quite a bit of music on your player if you have a large capacity memory stick.


small claims judgement filed against me while i was in a chaper 7 b.k. in califor central district. judgement creditor refuses to inform credit bureaus that it has been discharged in b.k.

The date you file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is the date any legal debt claims(except IRS) must stop. Any claims against you must be passed by the Bankruptcy judge for approval.\n\nThis is easy, if this judgment was obtained during the time between your filing date and your discharge date, and the debt was listed in your bankruptcy, you can write the court where the judgment was located and the credit bureaus and demand the removal from your credit report.\n\nIf the judgment creditor refuses to stop attempting to collect a discharged debt you can threaten legal action. You should have some information in your discharge papers to explain this.\n\nGood Luck


Parts of the Arctic and northern Alaska have long periods of complete darkness while at other times they have nothing but sunlight. Can you explain this?

It's the angle of the earth's rotation.  The northern hemisphere tilts away from the sun during winter, causing long periods of darkness, and towards the sun in summer, causing longer daylight hours.  At the extreme nothern latitudes, this leads to constant daylight or constant darkness at those times of the year.


i want to know what is basics and instruction to make a school yearbook .

Sometimes when I access Yahoo over a wireless access, I can't fully access Yahoo pages.  For instance, often I can't read Yahoo mail, after waiting, it just can't find the page.  Similarly, when I tried to submit this question over the wireless network, it just died.  But over a wired line it is fine.  Is it the "heaviness" of the pages or what?

it is possibly your wireless phone that intercepts certain sequences of code interpreting it as information it should have, not your computer, try moving you computer, router or phone


Yeh, i'd like to know how insurance co survive against the claims or how manage the risk of loss.

You won't.\nMost companies treat their own actuarial assessment of risk as a very private, trade secret.\nI'd call the insurance professor at your local university and ask in more general terms about risk assessment.\nOr take an actuary class.


What would you have to see, hear, or touch, that would make you believe that Jesus Christ is the only way and you become a Christian?

I am a Christian already... I just feel Christ presence and I have faith in Him. I read the Bible and pray to God constantly and helps me strengthen my faith in Him. I also listen to Him.. listen to God and contemplating in His words really helps alot... Christ did something so wonderful to me... He saved me from ALL my unrighteousness... but not just ME but to you also...to all of us... and the good news is Christ is coming again to take us to heaven and would give us a new earth and a new life where there will be no more tears and no more failures and heartaches.. that's how wonderful to have Jesus in your life...


Why has it not been really discussed of why dick chaney and haliburton was not a conflict of interest

It is a conflict of interest. But nothing will be done about it.  That is politics. Cheney also has a lot of political experience.  He has been involved with politics for a long time.  Governor of Wyoming, he was on the first President Bush staff and I believe he was on Presidents Nixon and Fords staff. (however don't quote me on that one it might have been a different president)

My boy friend & I have been with each other for about 3years. The 1st year of our relationship we were living together. Our sex life was real good. Then I started working more and he had moved out. Then our sex life went down hill. But now we are living with each other again and or sex life is so so. I don't know how can we get what we once had back. He loves me with his all and I love him with my all as well. So how can I show him in the bedroom how much love him becuase he doesn't have no probles showing me. 1 more thing  there is no real 4play going on and I know that I love some 4play I don't know about him.

As for you, you can ask him to give you some more foreplay since you already know that you love it.  As for him, he's going to have a better idea about what he wants than any of us.  There's no need to get ideas from complete strangers on Yahoo answers when all men aren't equal and we don't know what's going to excite him.  Please ask him about what turns him on.  Perhaps he has an unfulfilled sexual desire like a fetish or a fantasy.  As long as it's reasonable, you could try to fulfill that fetish or fantasy.  If he's perfectly fine, then maybe he could add more foreplay for you.


i didn't have ne credit until just recently. now i have very little but i had to take out a small loan to get it. I just dont understand why certain things and/or places won't give you things cause u ahve no credit but where do they expect you to gain it from? I just bugs me and im curious.

You should absolutely work to establish a good credit rating.  Apply for a small, low interest credit card.  Use it once or twice a month to make small purchases and pay it off in full.  By doing so, you are establishing a credit history to prove you are trustworthy.  Without that history, lenders won't know anything about you and therefore, will not give you money.


Remember this is the guy that created everything, made a huge flood, impregnated a virgin, brought back someone from the dead. Where is he for people who really could use some of that kind of power. Like starving children, or abused children. Why no help for them?

Well technically the flooding of the earth was impossible. if the entire earth had flooded we wouldn't have a class of mammals found only in Australia, and certain plants would have been destroyed forever... I mean really could you imagine a cactus under that much water surviving? But to get back on topic... If there is a god, and he is all powerful, the only reason for man to suffer is that God wants man to suffer... For to be all powerful would mean the ability to do anything, even the impossible... So no matter what positive results we get through suffering, God could have given us without us suffering... some of these results may seem logically absurd without our having suffered, but remember, he is supposed to be able to do the impossible, so no matter what reason someone gives for human suffering, we could have easily, without even a thought, done without it...


I've got a 60CM resolution photo with X,Y according to wgs84 and i wanna generate the 3d tria. i have Arc info but it is unable to generate 3d surface

I'm not familiar with your data.  However, human eyes see 3D because there is space between the eyes and the two views are therefore slightly different, especially for nearby objects.  You can "see" 3D using arial photography if two pictures are take in rapid succession from the airplane with enough separation to simulate the space between eyes.  The space must be much greater for the airplane because the objects on the ground are far away from the camera lense.  Set the photos side by side with a vertical sheet (of cardboard?) between them and look down on the photos using both eyes.  If the size of the photos and placement are correct so that your eyes now simulate the airplane, you may be able to fuse the images into 3D.  Often special equipment (and lenses?) are used to facilitate the process.  Good luck.

i'm working in a global telecom company as a technical supervisor for one and a half year, now i have an opportunity to join marketing department as a product manager, or i have another choice is to join another company as a technical supervisor but higher salary.\n\nany way, both opportunities are for about 4 years contract, but which one do you think is better for my future? i mean if you want to recruit me after 4 years, which of my backgrounds will you prefere?

I personally like product manager. You need a broader set of skills to be one. Although, technical supervisor role may be more limiting in the future, there may be a a lot of those types of positions where you are. \n\nIt's always best to do what you like. Do you want to stay fairly technical and manager other techs? Or, do you want to be more involved in the development of products and work with different departments managing the relationships between them? \n \nThere are quite different paths. Ask more people in the company what they do...


I have never sent hate mail, anonymous or otherwise.\n\nIf I have something to say, I'm going to own up to it, no matter how much what I say may upset who hears it.


I usually do it when everyones sing'in and I'm sitting between alot of people so that no one knows which one did it.

Unavoidable is indeed unavoidable.  I think it would be the height of rudeness to do it intentionally, however.  Try easing your tightened muscles very slowly, and see if it doesn't relieve the pressure silently.


Ok...so im 17. And a senior...im really want to take law in College. But im not sure. Its always been my dream...and i would LOVE to be a lawyer. But im worried, about having to go to school for so long for it...but i end up being a really bad lawyer. I know it sounds cheesy but im really worried about it.

I do agree with Dilla151 about the school.  Also, you must start believing in yourself if you want to succeed.  It is not going to be on anyone else as to whether you fail or succeed in Law.  It doesn't matter what you want to do, what matters is that you should do something you have a passion for and feel that you CAN do it (but my question to you is, how do you know that you will fail if you don't at least try???).  I would rather try and fail than not try at all!!


I have twin autistic boys. Our life story was featured\non LIFETIME TELEVISION,Miracle Run. I would like to hear how you deal with this daily.

As the mother of two boys with "issues", I took it a day at a time.  I did the best I could.  That is all you really can do...just take it day by day.  \n\nAll parents, even those with "normal" kids have tough days.  We just have more of them then they do.  Concentrate on the accomplishments and milestones your boys achieve and enjoy those to the fullest.  There are days that we think we just can't handle anymore but, being mothers, we do.  It all works out!  Good luck!


MY BOYFRIEND SAYS WWW.BUBBLEBUTTS.COM, WWW.ROUNDNBROWN.COM,


my best friend is in love with my boy friend what should i do

You're best friend couldn't truly be a friend if she wants your man.  Does he show interest in her? If not, let her go or lay off the friendship for a while to see if she is truly your friend.  If he has interest in her, let him go also he was to be a friend before lover anyway. A friend is forever and would never hurt you or put you in compromising position.


What did Muhammad do to prove that he was a true prophet of God?  Miracles, healings, raise the dead??  How can you know for sure that he was that prophet?

Just if you tell the answer funny I will tell you!


Even if i vigorously work out, i never sweat. i need to lose about 30 pounds and a friend told me if i dont sweat i will not lose any weight. but i have never been able to sweat.

Losing weight doesn't have anything to do with sweating. Follow a healthy diet using the Food Pyramid, and exercise regularly, 3-5 days a week for a minimum of 30 minutes a day. Don't cut out the carbohydrates because your body needs those for energy, but shoot for a goal of 100g a day. Eat 3 small meals a day with 2 small snacks and drink a lot of water. If you use a small plate at meal time you can trick you mind into thinking that you are getting more than you really are, and eat slowly, it may take up to 15 minutes for your brain to get the message that the stomach is full. Don't try to lose all of the weight at once, if you lose 1-2 pounds a week you will be more likely to keep them off.

How would they check thier mail get the weather read the news find directions search for ... ANYTHING?????

I would go outside and remeber the world around me...


A claim is made that a house can be kept at a temperature of 25 degrees C by using a heat pump.  The heat pump receives energy by heat transfer from the outside air at 5 degrees C and discharges energy by heat transfer to the house.  Is this in violation of the Clausius statement of the second law of thermodynamics? Please explain this to me!

The statement is that no cyclic process is possible that does nothing but transfer heat from a cold body to a hot one. In my understanding the key words are "nothing but". To keep a heat pump system working energy (work) needs to be added. In practical heat pumps gas (refrigerant) is compressed, condensed, expanded and evaporated. In compression is where energy is added.\n\nYou can also think of a heat pump as an air conditioned system to cool your neighborhood, just be aware that this "image" has its limitations when you are designing the real thing.

If the man is released does he have to pay child suppport or is the woman on her own?What about while he is in jail? What programs are available to her for support?I know some prisoners are allowed to work while incarcerated. Does the money go to her?

That would all depend on the state. South Dakota was considering a law that would terminate parental rights for people convicted of rape AND require them to pay some form of compensation in lieu of child support, but it was ammended so extensively that the bill as passed did not even mention rape.

1. A slice of pie with a scoop of ice cream has 550 calories. The calories in the pie alone are 100 more than twice the calories in the ice cream alone. How many calories are in each food?\n\n2. A bus carrying the members of a marching band and a truck carrying their instruments leave a high school at the same time. The bus travels at 50 mph and the truck travels at 35 mph. In how many hours will they be 82.5 miles apart.

X= cals in pie\ny= Cals in ice cream\nequation 1 A slice of pie with a scoop of ice cream has 550 calories= x+y=550\nequation 2(The calories in the pie alone are 100 more than twice the calories in the ice cream alone x=2y+100\n\nx=550-y and x=2y+100\n550-y=2y+100\n-y-2y=100-550\n-3y=-450\ny=150\n\nSince y=150, then x=550-150, x=400\n\nSo, there are 400 cal in a slice of pie, and 150 cal in a scoop of ice cream\n\n2- There's a difference of 15mph between vehicles.

I'm considering buying a new graphics card for my computer. I want to know the difference between a AGP and PCI express. Also, if anyone is good at this type of stuff, let me know what kind of card I should go with. I was thinking of something between 128 to 256 MB. Web links are appreciated.

I'm not sure how much detail you want, so I'll keep it somewhere in the middle.\n\nBoth are bus architectures designed for moving data being peripherals and the motherboard, in this case they are both overwhelmingly used for graphics cards.  Both have roughly the same base speed.  AGP 1X and PCI-E x1 both support 256MB/sec, however AGP maxes out at AGP 8X for about 2GB/sec.  PCI-E currently goes up to x16 for a single slot, which is about 4GB/sec.\n\nSo far, they sound very similar, except PCI-E supports a bi-directional flow of data and a higher max speed (twice as fast).  In theory, there's no reason AGP 16X couldn't be made, but the bi-directional nature of PCI-E precludes any justification for making it.  What this means is that if you have an identical video card running at 8X AGP or PCI-E X8, you'd get fairly similar performance because you'd be bottnecked by the bus.  If the GPU is designed for PCI-E and you have an AGP variant, you should lose a little performance to the AGP bridge.  The bi-directional nature of PCI-E is also what makes ATI's crossfire technology feasible; Nvidia's SLI can operate without the SLI bridge as well, but you'll have reduced performance when going through the PCI-E.\n\nBecause the AGP standard is essentially obsolete for all entertainment purposes, there's no reason to build a new computer around one.  Although, if you're looking to add a video card into a current system, you'll probably need to go with an AGP card.  If that's the case, probably the best AGP card you can buy is the 7800GS from BFG.  It will cost $350 at a Best Buy or about $320 online (I've included links below to it at NewEgg and TigerDirect).  Considering the high price of the card and how poorly it performs compared to its PCI-E counterparts, which are running in PCI-E x16, you should probably just hold out for an entirely new system.\n\nIf you have any other questions, just send me a mail to my Yahoo! account and I'll try to answer them or point you in the right direction.


Are there any loner chicks here? i really love to be alone from the rest of the world and i was wondering if any girls here are the same? i enjoy doing things by myself, going on solo adventures,spending time alone,where ever it may be and where ever i may go.I have a kazillion hobbies that i enjoy and i am good looking, but it's hard to find a girl thats as reclusive and introverted as me because they don't really stand out and if i were to approach them,they'd probaly do what i do to most strangers..and snub me. \n\nany loner chicks here?

if we want to be alone, we won't want to hang out with you, and that will defeat the whole purpose.  better ask for girls who just like to hang out with one person at a time rather than in groups.

The religious and political turmoil caused when a formerly Muslim man converted to Christianity in Afghanistan, clearly emphasized the religious, thereby cultural, differences of the secular Judeao-Christian culture of the West, and the theocratic-influenced Islamic countries. Is the apostasy of religious converts from Islam to another a decree by Muhammad, formulated by relgious patriarchs and rulers after the passing of the Prophet? If so in either point, should Sharia Law be re-examined, thereby ensuring its relevancy in modern society?

Not all muslim scholors agree that there is death for apostacy in Islam. It is actually going against freedom of religion given in the Quran .\n\nWhat Quran says about those leaving faith\n"O ye who believe! if any from among you turn back from his Faith, soon will Allah produce a people whom He will love as they will love Him,- " Quran 5: 54. \n\n"Those who believe, then reject faith, then believe (again) and (again) reject faith, and go on increasing in unbelief,- Allah will not forgive them nor guide them nor guide them on the way." Quran 4:137. \n\nQuran only says he will not be forgiven and will not be guided if he repeatedly believes and disbelieve. How can a person repeatedly disbelieve if there is death for apostasy ?

i make seven dollars an hour how much would i get for 13 hrs

A percentage based on your income, deductions, and tax credits  - and that's just Federal taxes.  Your state may take out more for income taxes.

hi\nI am researching and doing a project on the NOBLE GASES and I have 3 questions about them. Answers dont have to be long...just enough so I can understand & learn them.\n\n1.) WHY do the members of this family have similar properties?\n\n2.) WHAT are the similar properites?\n\n3.) HOW does this family tend to bond with other chemicals?\n\n(PS: i think #1 has something to do with "valence electrons" and #3 has something to do with "ionic" or "covalent"\n\nThanks 4 the Help! \nmuch appreciated

1. All the members of the noble gases have a full shell of valence electrons, so they don't easily bond with other atoms.\n\n2. Because of the full shell, the noble gases have very weak intermolecular forces (IMF's), so they all have very low melting and boiling points. Helium actually doesn't become a liquid at normal atmospheric pressure until you get down to 4.22 K (-452 degrees Fahrenheit).\n\n3. They don't. Well, not usually. The larger noble gases (Krypton and Xenon) will bond with others, but only when using an expanded octet, in the d orbital. This makes compounds such as xenon tetrafluoride, XeF4. However, Helium and Neon will not react with anything, as their ionization energy is extremely high and their electron affinity is very low.\n\nNOTE: The answers above me are WRONG. Noble gases definitely do not form diatomic compounds. They are confusing the noble gases with the halogens, the elements that are in the second to the right column on the periodic table. It took all the way until 1962 for a chemist to synthesize a true noble gas compound, Xe[PtF6]- (xenon hexafluoroplatinate).\n\nEDIT: Tarangoyal, I'm reporting you for plagiarism. That answer is virtually identical to the first answer. There's no way that's a coincidence. You even made the same mistakes.

Is it because musicians are crazier than the rest and the  freely open exciting lifestyle?  Don't be afraid to be honest lol

I don't think I have ever dated a musician who didn't have a statement to make lol  They are free unto themselves and basically live by the golden rule that "If it feels good, do it."  And being with a musician often makes a woman feel she can openly participate without the judgment of others.  And this is often where the term "groupies" comes in.\n\nThe long hair is attitude and very few musicians don't look good with long hair. \n\nThe bad boy image, sometimes a lack of personal control publically and often with the help of intoxication of some sort but not always.  There are good bad boys out there too who are in it for the love of the music and what they can do with that love.\n\nI not only dated a few but I married one.  Bad boys never reform totally because the music will always run through their veins and as my husband tells me..."a guitar was his first love and never lets him down."


I know he died before it ever happened, but did he authorize it to be made and sent out. What was his take on it? Thanks guys!

FDR supported the Manhattan Project and though it was not yet complete at the time of his death I fully believe that he intended to use this new weapon when it was ready to use.  At the time of his death even Truman did not know about the Atomic project to build a new weapon so I doubt very seriously that there was ever any discussion at any level as to what the targets may have been during his life, however given his fortitude towards the war I have no doubt that he would have made the same call Truman did and I have always felt that Truman made the call he did because he felt FDR would have made the same one.


To solve this problem, you have to substitue the coordinates into point-slope form using the slope (-5) as m.

Was it hot all the time? Cold?  Rainy and damp?  Humid?  Would it have been comfortable for humans?

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) which causes AIDS is transmitted through body fluids in particular blood, semen, vaginal secretions and breast milk. Transmission of HIV takes place in four ways: \nunprotected sexual intercourse with an infected partner (the most common); \nsharing needles when injecting or other use of contaminated injection or other skin- piercing equipment; \nblood and blood products through, for example, infected transfusions and organ or tissue transplants, \ntransmission from infected mother to child in the womb or at birth and breastfeeding. \nHIV is not transmitted by casual physical contact, coughing, sneezing and kissing, by sharing toilet and washing facilities, by using eating utensils or consuming food and beverages handled by someone who has HIV; it is not spread by mosquitoes or other insect bites.

I'm wondering when the highly anticipated Guns N Roses album "Chinese Democracy" will come out. I am a huge G'n'R fan; every album they make is classic. Its been in production for over 10 years, and is the most expensive album ever made. There has been no news of it until recently, when Axl Rose started talking about the new album and showing up at parties and doing interviews. Does anyone have the slightest idea when this freakin album will come out.

My daughter is 6 and she scratches till she bleed.  She has scabs on her arms, neck and legs.  How do I stop her from scratching.  Please answer if you only know.

my 8 month old has had skin allergies since she was a newborn. she also has baby eczema. her doctor prescribed elocon...i think thats how you spell it. anyway, at the pharmacy, they can give you a generic which is a whole lot cheaper, but still works wonders. before the doctor had given me the precription, my sister in law had already told me about the cream. she's a nurse in the allergy department of hospitals. any way, the itching definitely has subsided, but hasn't totally gone away. i have noticed though that when i put a few drops of baby oil in her bath water that it keeps her skin from drying out and helps to prevent some of the itchyness. i tried lotion, but that also gives her an allergic reaction. \n\nmy best suggestion would be to try different suggestions and see whay works best for your child. although eczema is eczema, each child will react differently to things. also preventing the itch is a whole lot better than trying to treat the itch. keep her moisturized with a hypoallergenic formula, keep her clean, treat the eczema every night with the elocon or equivalent, and let her know that scratching will only inflame the area. good luck to you and your daughter.


IMO, democracy is overated. Consider:\n\n- Hitler and the Nazis were democratically elected.\n- Afghanistan, a democratically elected government, is about to put someone to death for changing his religion from Islam to Christianity.\n\nIs democracy two wolves and a sheep deciding what to eat for dinner ?\n\nShouldn't we have been more concerned on making sure the constitutions in Iraq and Afghanistan protected freedom instead of simply making sure they were "democracies."

Well the Issue in Afghanistan is Islam. Islam is an intolerant religion with intolerant hateful followers. Their way or no way.

Go to Ask Jeeves, and put in tenant landlord questions you will find your answers.  I once had a foreign Landlord, who thought he was my Own-Lord, a Lawyer took care of that for me, it is against the law to harass you in any wayand most states are [pro tenant.  Know your rights.  A retainer, and small fee to a real estate attorney can remedy this quickly.  I know it cost money, but mine only cost $250.00 in the long run and it was well worth it to see the Landlord squirm.

There aren't any updated sites on this subject.

It appears it was in the works with NBC, but they decided against it. The link below is from Anne Rice's website dated Nov 2005, stating that it's on hold. So, no, it wasn't made, but she said that after the musical Lestat opens, that may change. Too bad, I love the Mayfair Witches series as well as The Vampire Chronicles. Her other books (Violin, Servant of the Bones, etc) are pretty good too.....


My car was hit by a drunk and hit-n-run driver. Although I have the police report with proof, the other insurance said they have to contact the insured first in order to determine whether to accept/deny my claim. This insurance company said the insured did not contact them and very conveniently do not have its insured's phone number. I personally found the insured's phone number and contacted him, and he told me he contacted his insurance already. The insurance company said he didn't, and will try to contact him with the number I gave to them. But the insurance company also said when they contacted the insured, they will decide whether his policy was effective or not. Help! It's been a month and I haven't fixed my car yet. My insurance is not doing anything because I don't have collusion coverage.

Not having your own insurance to go after the other drivers insurance is always difficult.  You may need to hire an insurance lawyer.  If you have the police report that states the other driver was at fault, then you are in the right.  It sounds like the other driver has a shady insurance company.  Probably one of those last chance places that will insure anybody.  His insurance should have repaired your car by now.  Have you told the insurance company that you have the police report?  If you have, and they have not responded to you, you need to obtain the services of a lawyer right away.  You can always include your legal fees in the settlement with the insurance company.


There is a major issue in regards to the UN declaration if Human Rights and Religion:\n\nLet me Summerize the freedom of religion aspect before I state the question:\n\n"Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."\n\n---\n\nA country that signs the declaration of the United Nations and does not respect this particular aspect... How is it brought up to their attention if so, are there sanctions related to this specific declaration (or in general) ?

International law is actually a set of treaties.  The UN has no jurisdiction over its member nations even if they have signed the treaty. \n\n The United States is currently the only country in the world whose law requires that treaties be honored.  If you are referring to the United States, you would have to get it on agenda of the supreme court.

Send the illegal immigrants back to their countries. That's where many of our child workers come from, right? I also think we need stricter penalties for abusing child labor. i.e. boss who keeps 16 year old past his working limit should be fined.

I am going to a hotel for the weekend and I usually stay where there is free wireless internet, but they are all booked. I chose to stay at this one hotel because it is the only one that is not booked. It says that it has data ports in the rooms, I'm not quite sure what a data port is.

Some hotels have "data ports" on the sides of the phones in the rooms to plug into to DIALUP internet (local charges may apply). Other hotels may have in-room Ethernet jacks to plug into high-speed internet, but most charge a service fee. The best idea would be to call the hotel that you have you reservations at and consult thier customer services.

Consider the chain of events surrounding Kennedy's death, his brother's killing and Teddy's 'mishap' - what are we really dealing with here? And why is it so difficult for subsequent US Governments to unravel the mystery of the killings???????

Meth, as well as other drugs, is slowly destroying our great country.  Too cheaply made, easily distributed, and many people are HOOKED.  Jail terms are light, rehabs often fail (or are not available), and the merry-go-round just keeps on going round and round.  The Drug Addiction "trip" just never seems to end for many, until they die or become "vegetables" for life.

whoa, folks theses are people too. they did they made one unwise decision &are paying dearly for it.they need help. i am so disgusted with the way our nation is handling the war on drugs i `ve got to the point that i feel it should be legalized. people`s gonna do it anyway. what did prohibition show us? alcohol is the WORST drug their is! my father died an old crippled man at52 of course i want the same rights from the police that we have from people drinking.THINK of all the money that could be used in rehabilatation. real education, protecting kids. my stars we`ve got people in the streets. help them, many many people abuse drugs because of mental health - it`s the only way they know to cope with life.we need to help them to get real help.this is what is destroying our country.i also feel that alcohol should be treated with as much seriosness as any other drug.


I have read in so many question / answers here that America is bad because of this and America is bad because of that.\nIf they hate America SO much, why stay?

effects, causes and solution of broken homes on student academic performance

This question is not easy to answer. Anyways, I think it depends on the individual (student), if you are highly motivated and determine to reach your goal(s) then I believe it's possible for you to achieve whatever your goal might be. I personally don't think that if you're from a broken family you're academic performance will worsen. I know friends from broken homes who are performing very well academically. Nonetheless, I also know that there are many negative effects of broken homes on young people.


i am a low income single mother and need insurance for myself my kid is already covered

If you don't have insurance already, you are in for a rude awakening.  You'll be denied by any insurer for the pre-existing condition.  YOu'll need to check to see if your state has a 'high-risk' pool and see if you can get coverage there.  Since you usually need a denial to get in, you might as well just apply somewhere first and get the denial of coverage.\nSince you are low income you might also quality for some sort of state sponsored medical assistance or Medicaid.


Because my mother will not let me go that far just to meet a girl, should i just walk her to all her classes, and give her kisses, buy her stuff, by the way I don't now if i now how to kiss.

Absolutely not.  I think you should have a discussion about what's making you feel that you aren't getting what you want.  If nothing comes of it, then let her go and have what you want.

If you don't agree with something they say, do you follow it because you're Catholic or do you do what "feels right" for you?

I think you misunderstand teh role.  Except for priests of the Roman Patriarchate, Rome does not make rules for people.  Catholics follow the rules set down by divine revelation.  Now, for purposes of practicality, certain processes occur in a regulated manner.  For example, morning prayer is sung during the morning evening prayer isn't.  If it doesn't impact divine revelation, then it is optional.  On the other hand, if you disagree with divine revelation you will do what you want anyway, so they don't matter then.


please my friend knows it and now she dosn't like me anymore and she still chacks it!!!!!!!


There's a bad case of stomach flu going around in my house...how can I help this problem?

Unfortunately, with the stomach flu there is not alot you can do to make a person better except time because it is usually a virus that causes it. However, keeping things clean, washed, and killing as many germs as you can...can help stop the passing it around. Wash your dishes in hot water (I would say at least over 110 degrees or more), any linens and clothes exposed to the germs that can be washed in hot water need to be washed in hot water as well. You can also add Pine Sol or Lysol (there is a concentrated version that can go in the laundry) to the load to help disinfect. Use of the antibacterial hand gels also help prevent spread of germs. When I started working in a hospital, they have antibacterial foam containers all over the walls so that we can all use it from one room to another to help prevent spread of germs. I started using the gels at home, and we have cut our sickness in HALF, and I work at a hospital now. You would think we would be sick MORE, but we are not. =)\nGood luck with your flu problem and hope you feel better soon. =)


Sometimes all we want is to be friends. Why can't guys accept that and treat us with respect?

Some of us can. I have a girlfriend I am completely happy with. The ONLY interest I have in any other women is as a friend. As for those who can't, they're probably wondering why you can't just accept that they don't want to just be friends. If you just want to be friends, and a guy wants to be more than friends, don't bother with him. You have different ideas about where your relationship should be headed. Or if you do choose to spend time with a guy like that, make it very clear that you're only interested in being friends, that you're not comfortable with him trying to be anything more, and if he makes any advances on you, don't tolerate it.\n\nAdded:\nIf you don't hear from them after you've made it clear that you only want to be friends, the only interest they had in you was as more than a friend. They weren't willing to settle for less, and they have as much right to make that decision as you do to decide that you just want to be friends. Simple as that. What you wanted wasn't enough for them, what they wanted was too much for you. Best to go your separate ways.

Afew years ago my family had some pictures made,and we didn't buy them all.We were told we could view them online.Is this BS or what?They did not give us a web address.

It depends on where you bought them from. Chances are they are gone, but if it is a reputable place, they may have them online. Where was this?


I'm 16 and over weight, and not just a little bit, I am goin to college in England at the end of the summer. So from now till August is the amount of time I have to lose weight and start over when I get to college. And I need a diet that is out there that can help me. I have already joined a gym I just don't no what to do about the food diets nowadays and what is effective.

The first thing is to look at yourself as beautiful young lady, regardless of your weight. Next drink large amounts of water.  No junk food! Eat 6 small meals a day, if you must munch, munch on carrots or celery. Continue to exercise.  Alot of young people are doing through the same thing so don't feel alone.  The food in England is different and it may take time for you to adjust, plus your body is going thru hormone changes.  If you are a equestrian England is the prefect place to hone those skills and another excellent form of exercise.  I Also agree a trip to your physician is in order, his or her advice is much better than any of your mates will give you.  Enjoy this wonderful time in your life and believe that you are beautiful and you will be.


I know people that smoke and are old and have baby faces.

Not for nothing, but it comes down to genetics really.\nLike it or not, smoking, in any form catches up with you.\nMy friend has been to 2 seperate dermatologist that say if ya dont give up all stuff your doing ( ie. drinking, smoking ) it'll all hit ya around 35!!\nSo, to me, it seems genetics is what gives ya either a youthful look, or not.

Even a hard-core Republican like me sees hope for the Democrats here http://www.house.gov/herseth/

There's a few Dems who give me hope that they are not bad. We have a good Democrat running for gov. here in Colorado- Bill Ritter.\n\nAs for Stephanie, she's kinda hot !


design a lab to test and evaluate the new products.\nsuggest the type of distributed system(either multiprocessors,multicomputers,shared memory or distributed memory)

Your question is too vague to properly answer.  However, I can suggest looking at mosix for a distributed system.  Types of sensors and what is the ultimate goal of the project will help me to better answer you.


when I try to open my Y Messenger I get this error, YBSKIN2.DLL  It tells me to resart my computer, but it does the same thing again

Your log shows a problem with yapger and ybskin2.dll. What I would do is simple, go into the Yahoo folder and copy that file somewhere else on your computer, then delete the dll in the folder. Then run Yahoo and see if you have a error message again. If it does not log you in then replace the dll in the folder, if it does go ahead and delete it and log out and then back in. I think that is one of the skins for Yahoo. You can find the dll in a google search to replace it if it is corrupt. I hope this helps!


When they say at church that it is not good enough to believe, they say because even Satan BELIEVES in God. What is that supposed to mean, believing is FAITH, wouldn't Satan KNOW that God exists? Satan doesn't believe in God's word, but Satan knows he exists, contrary to him, we can only believe. Sad, isn't it? Satan knows God more than us.\n\nThis brings up a whole new subject. I can understand how disobeying what God says to somebody personally is a sin (Adam and Eve, Satan, others he spoke to...), but when you only have faith, everything is different. THAT is the main reason why anybody who isn't Christian doesn't believe.

Satan believes God exists because he has met God, that don't mean that Satan believes in God's ways.  We can believe in God but not accept God's ways... this is one reason that just believing isn't enough.  it's like if you are very thirsty and someone offers you a soda. they tell you that the soda is ice cold, you see the beads of sweat on the outside of the can, so you believe it is cold... you hold the can in your hand and you feel the cold, but if you put that can down without taking a drink your thirst will still be there... even though you know and believe that the soda is there, cold, wet and refreshing, it does you no good to believe and not receive.  same thing with God... we must receive him, (accept him as Lord of our life, and ask him to forgive us of our sins, because there is no place in heaven for sin) so we believe, and receive Christ and his forgiveness.  believing is just not enough


I don't understand why Christians and others just think its a joke to respect atheism. When Christians are offended by atheists, atheists should be offended by that.

Agreed. Nobody should poke fun at another's religious beliefs. Religion is an individual and personal thing. It is one's personal relationship with his/her deity(ies). \n\nIf one has no relationship witha higher power, that is their religion... no faith, no god. It is still a belief.\n\nMost christians are rude about faith. Then again, most of them are brainwashed in sunday school from day one. Look at catholicism. Based upon their own messiah's teaching, they should not be baptised unitl they are old enough to make the conscious choice. Instead, parents force the choice upon them before they are old enough to speak.


ever since 10 yesterday morning I have been light headed. I don't feel sick and I eat only healthy food. I don't think I should see a doctor just yet, but I really don't know.  I was thinking also that it started happening an hour after I ate these little cherry tomatos, but don't know if it was just a coincidance. I drank 8 bottles of water yesterday and already 6 today thinking I might be dehydrated which has probably helped some since I am not as dizzy as yesterday.  And the light headedness is not every once and a while, it happens everytime I move my head or I stand up or close my eyes.  Any suggestions on what I should do?

maybe bloodpressure or could you be pregnant?


Do you have experience? No, get some! There is always someone filming something that could use free talent. You'll also get to use these contacts for the future. Don't waist you time or $$ on buying the 'must have head shots' especially from agents that don't guarantee you work first. If they want to use you, they can pay for the shot. Get my drift? They will tend to use you to subsidize their photography career. Make contacts with student getting into the tech field. They will be the up and comers that need you right now for their projects. Good luck!


This has to do with the book THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH by Peter Kelder, or THE FIVE TIBETANS by Christopher Kilham


And at the same time, not be toxic if the blade contacts skin or food?

Is it coincidence that these 2 American leaders are putting pressure on Israel to give up it's land, & their home states got hit? The hurricanes hit the same week America pressured Israel to give up their land!\nAnybody notice that whenever America hosts an anti-Semitic world leader, somewhere in America on that very same day, a natural disaster happens? \nIs this coincidence? What do you make of this? I am NOT looking to offend anyone; my apologies if it does. I just want honest feedback.

No...didn't notice that before...interesting


I'm really scared! First I saw a White Rabbit, then an angry amoeba, and now snakes are in my house! What's going on? I don't have a silver bullet!

For how much I hated hearing it I miss how my grandma would say,"that is how the mop swaps" and boy did I hate that mop sometimes!

Grandpa always said: "Lawdy, Lawdy, little children".\nStill not sure what he meant. lol


I am beyond anxious to escape the south. Only area I've visited in NW so far is Seattle and surrounding area...Bainbridge Island(too rich for my budget,obviously). I have some friends in NY, CT, and Montreal, but the winters are too tough for me, and it is also too expensive from what I have seen.  I'm planning to visit Oregon and see what it offers next in summer.  Ideally, would like to hear from anyone with any input as to areas within the NW region with affordable housing, not too far from cultural offerings, etc, without living in a crappy apt. downtown.  I appreciate any serious responses.  Thanks.

I lived half my life in Portland, Oregon. It is so beautiful and the people are so nice. Seattle I've lived, but hated the rudeness. The only thing I dislike about Oregon is they are so Liberal. They have horrible sex laws and will never vote to keep perverts in jail. I live in Alaska now and people here are great. I rent a studio Apt. for 495.00 mo. free utilities. I do miss the giant fir trees though. Portland has lots of jobs and low rents. Good Luck!


Im 13\nI way 82 lb.\nNot anorexic\nIm a girl\nIm about 5'2 foot

you should really weigh closer to 100 lbs or more even. unless your metabolism is naturally high and gaining weight with normal eating habits is difficult you are underweight right now.


I had almost graduated but i got in a bad car accident and never went back i need help to get my ged so i can take other classes and get a better job please help

I'm pretty sure that many community colleges offer GEDs. They might even give you credit from classes you took in HS. Search for community colleges in your area.


I am always running around, between school and work, and I need to find something that is high in fiber that I can just grab and snack on while in the car.  Thanks for any help!

By the way, if you were from England then you will eat 'fibre' in your automovile in your way to a Cricket game.\n\nFor quick snacks it is hard to beat dried foods like apricots, dates or raisins.  Fresh fruit like orange, apple or pears can make an excellent snack.\n\nDon't forget or be afraid of almonds, for snacks.  Pack with fiber but also good fats and minerals.\n\nIf you have time to prepare food, then I would recommend baking your own muffins with whole wheat flour.  I make mine and add wheat bran or oatmeal bran or flaxseed.   Great source of fibre and nutrition are the legumes, like lentils, beans, garbanzo (chickpeas for you English!) Mix your legumes with brown rice and you'll have a great meal loaded with fiber and complete protein.\nAnother great source of fiber are avocados.  I enjoy them sliced between whole wheat sandwiches.\nIn a coffee grinder I prepare a mix of flaxseed, almonds and sunflower seeds.  This is loaded with a lot of good nutrition and fiber.  I use this to sprincle on anything from yogurt, cereal, smoothies, salsas, etc.  I put it in a little baggy and have it handy in places like the office, etc.


I have two sons, one Maltese one Lab. Both very smart, good looking, and succesful in life but still live at home. My youngest is giving me kisses now.

No. It's just their own way of showing their affection towards their pets. In fact, I have read that those people who are attached to their pets are the most loving, caring and sweet people in the world. :)


I dont understand why people have a problem with this. I am a 39 yo happily married man with 3 children. I had a very sexual relationship with a 23 yo woman when I was 14. She taught me alot about myself and about sex. I have no regrets about it!

I think its because parents are so embarrassed about sex. I think the boy probably was cool with it until everybody started telling him it was bad. How would you like to tell everybody every little detail about your sex life?


My best friends 16th birhday is in the beginning of apirl. She's good at comming up with special surprises for my birthday, but I'm not good at thinking of neat things to do. She likes to do fun and neat things. I just need some random neat things to give her or take her some where for her birthday.  Any ideaS???

Decorate her locker at school, if it's okay by school rules.\nGet her a magazine subscription.\nHave as many people sign a card for her, even ask people that don't know her, LOL.\nGet her a key ring, and tell her you wish you could buy her a car.\nSee if they'll announce it on morning announcements at your school.\nIf she goes to your school, bring cupcakes just like Moms used to do in grade school, to pass out at lunch, again if okay by your school rules.\nGet her a singining telegram, or have a group of friends sing something other than Happy Birthday to her at lunch.  Maybe a little snazzy dance to go along with it.\nA trip to the movies or (yikes!) Bowling.  If you go bowling, list her name as Birthday Girl on the scoreboard. LOL.\nSend her ecards from www.bluemountainarts.com --the freeby ones.\nGet Name tag stickers for folks that usually say, 'Hello My Name Is______ or are blank, and have people write on them, "Wishing (insert her name here) Happy 16th Birthday"\nand wear around school all day, again if your school permits.\n\nJust a couple of ideas.\ndoublewidemama


good job ? just parents' demander? a way to pass the life?\nthe feeling of success?.......

Hello,\n      Without doubt, the only reason ppl (most ppl) take up education is to be able to get a high paying salary and lots of girls (If male)... Education has lost its sanctity and now, it has been commercialised.\n      But my reasons for education are different... I want to become a soccer player, but nonetheless, I still want to gain knowledge in Science, Maths, History, Languages, Economics, Computer... etc etc. For me, the purpose of education is to gain knowledge...


my son is a good child sometimes but the one thing that bother i think he uses me at times like for one he has a step father but this man raised him since he was 1.But the thing that hurt is that one day my husband is stepfather grab my son cause he was being disrespectful he wasn't trying to hurt him he was bolding up to me and then tell his stefather he wasn't going to do anything to him  and threating him  with my mom his grand mother.so one thing led to another. So he grab him left a bruisedc on his neck which he is easy to bruised. by the way this child is 13 years old ok. So he went by my mom and 3 days later OCS is on our back so he mad and so is every one else. So he call him by his name where he was calling him daddy and it kinda made  me mad u know but then he wants him to do things for him he throws thing in my face about not giving him money which he stays with my mom and my other two stays with me and their dad. but what i need to know am i a bad mom.

I don't know if you are a bad Mom, but you could clean up this listing and correct the grammar.  I could't make sense of this and sadly, I thought I could help.


introduction , defenition and some exercises or cases ,which need to solve ,the best web sites for a student to learn from....?

Ask your teacher or someone at your school who already took it


I have been married for 8 yrs now and have a daughter 6 yrs old .Everybody tells me that its high time i had a 2nd issue .My kid feels (and i feel too) that she's left out all alone with no one to share with and this is gradually afecting her psychologically. But the problem is that i dont share a very gud relationship with my husband .Our marriage is dull, without any love or romance in it ,and morover he's too bzy with his work. At times i begin to doubt if he loves me at all.There was a stage when i was even contemplating a divorce ,but then opted out for the sake of family .Under such circumstances ..how do i plan a 2nd child (which is the need of my 1st one) coz i feel pregnancy shud be out of lot of love between 2 partners and not a mere mis-hap or a co-incidence .Plzz help me with reasonable answers .

Please do not have a second child for the sake of your 1st child at the expense of your marriage.  With all you just said about your husband not really "being around" and your life dull with you questioning if he even loves you or if you even love him for that matter, you need to figure out your marriage first and either work it out (if that's what you both want) or dont.  You don't want to go having a child when you are questioning whether you even love the father or whether he loves you.  And having a child for the sake of your other child not being alone, is not the answer.  Your focus needs to start on your marriage b/c having a child should be a joyous occasion, one blessed by both parents and wanted by both parents, b/c otherwise resentment & bitterness with build up and then you will have a real mess.  Seriously, nurture your marriage, discuss both your feelings about the marriage & whether you want it to work out and if you both do, then discuss having another child & see if you both agree b/c you BOTH need to be on the same page on both issues.  Good luck!


did she believe that the gods dictated the war so that epic poetry could be created?

she always believed that it was her fault...


If so, how long before it will be undetectable after being a 0.0000?


I'm speaking for an anonymous female friend who is 16 and was recently raped twice by a 19-year-old male friend. We would like to press charges against him, but are worried about whether the procedure would be too much for her. She doesn't want to have to tell her parents that she wasn't a virgin when it happened, and we're wondering exactly what is needed to take him down. How involved would the parents have to be?

Well something like that happend to a friend of mine years ago, but she was 14 and he was 19. Beings she was a minor the parents were informed on what happend.\nSomething like that really shouldn't be hid from her parents. And this boy needs to be took down or else there could be another young girl raped or worse. \nShe shouldn't be embarrassed or ashamed on what happend, it's not her fault if she said no. \nI was raped by someone, but I was an adult and as a result I had a child from it. If I could I would put the person who did it to me in prison but I was drugged by a date-rape type of drug and pretty much don't remember much of it and since they can't find the person - DNA does no good.\nSomething like that is too dangerous to let go if not for her sake than for someone elses. Of course it will be stressful but I think she will feel better after knowing he didn't get away with it.


trying to decide what to go with, found a slightly used Terminator shortblock for a good price (2500 shipped). but i'm leery of buying used motors. so the alternative is to get something like the MMR street 900 shortblock. however it's 300 more not including shipping.

While the Cobra shortblock has better internals than previous Cobra parts, it is also somewhat suspect as it comes from someone who used it, and 4000 miles could be 16000 1/4 passes.\n\nThe MMR shortblock is more expensive, but is built by professionals with better quality parts, all built to handle high horsepower with ease, once properly worked in.\n\nI'd go MMR, oh, and tell them that I sent you.


When looking at the stars there are bright objects low in the sky that flash red and green, (not airplanes). They seem stationary and do not change location season to season. I have been told they are satellites and the flahing is the sun reflecting off the solar panels. Does anyone know where there is a site that give their name and location.Heavens-Above.com gives moving satellites but not geostationary.

Try the site below for information and the second link for a catalog of current orbits.  It's pretty technical but it should be fun deciphering.


We've become pretty good friends, talking on the phone and what-not, but I have no idea what to say to him.

How awful. I guess you can probably help him best by not avoiding him. A coworker of mine lost a son and when I wrote a sympathy card (on each anniversary of his death) she wrote back, "It's so nice to hear someone mention his name, finally. Everyone else is afraid to bring up his name, but seeing his name in print, acknowledging his life...helps me to remember his life."\n\nDon't avoid him...that's the best advice I have. And don't feel as if you have to come up with a "hallmark sentiment" every time you cross paths. Just give him a quick squeeze on his arm, move along with life, look into his eyes, cry along with him...don't avoid his pain.\n\nHe'll never forget your courage and friendship.


My niece had a warrant out for her arrest for harrasment. When she turned herself in at the police department, she had to go through a stirp search. Is this legal? It seems like overkill for harrassment.

It's legal when entering jail and or prison


how long can the brain survive without oxygen

After 5 minutes your brain will have some damage due to oxygen depravation, and you possibly be left in a vegetative state.\n\nThat is my answer.\nHowever, my sister when she was born went 8 minutes before breathing and she is perfectly healthy in everyway.


If someone can guide me for links to all countries' government official websites at one page...?\n\nFor example, usa official site is \nwww.firstgov.gov\n...likewise all all countries' government official websites at one page.\n\nI am already aware of google directory "by country" page and other government resources on the web.\n\nSo, I again remind about my specific requirement as follows :\n"ONLY LINKS TO all countries' government official websites at one page" AND NOTHING ELSE. \nEXCEPTIONALLY LINK ADDED TO PRESIDENT/PRIME MINISTER SITES WILL DO.


If you study prison history, it started out as a holding cell while the person somehow paid back their debt. There was some form of punishment, like community service or financial retribution. But besides being held against their will, they had to do something to pay back their debt to society.\nNowadays, the prison has become the punishment itself. It seems like the lesson of punishment has fallen by the wayside. Thoughts; ideas?

Very good thoughts ... my husband has served life in prison ... 40 years so far and no sign of getting out.\n\nSo I write to prisoners to tell them about Jesus Christ.\n\nI appreciated your personal e-mail to me about my answer to the Clairvoyance question and I tried to answer you by your e-mail address but mine was returned to me saying it could not go through to you because your e-mail address is unconfirmed.  But I did appreciate your encouragement and you can write to my e-mail address anytime   at   flyinhi@bellsouth.net   and my Website is http://stonehaven.hypermart.net\n\nAnd if I have a working e-mail address for you I will write you there.   \n\nBlessings,\nHarrietta


Is it me, or were they advertising that someone got seriously hurt, then they show them being taken away in a boat.  Is it me, or did that not happen, or was it for another part of the show (later on)?

YESSSS! my mom and i were wondering. they showed someone being taken away in a strecher and somthing about a serious injury but all that happened was bruce getting hit in the mouth... Thats weird. \n\nand some one should have switched to a 5 on 5 instead of 6 on 4 because. they would be top 5 gareenteed instead of top 6.... hmm they're not too smart


I had what looked like herpetic whitlow on my finger a year ago.  I didn't have any sexual contact with anyone for 6 months prior so I think I contracted it through a cut on my finger from what...I don't know.  I haven't had sex in the past year, and haven't had any outbreaks on my fingers, but I got my bloodwork done recently, and it showed a positive HSV2, or what is commonly known as genital herpes.  I found on a website that 60% of the time Herpetic Whitlow comes from HSV2.  So can I pass this to other people through shaking hands due to asymptomatic shedding?  I've never had a cold sore or any symptoms in my genital area.  Can I pass HSV2 to someone through sexual contact, if the originating infection was on the finger?

As in other mucocutaneous herpetic infections, herpetic whitlow is initiated by viral inoculation of the host through exposure to infected body fluids via a break in the skin, most commonly a torn cuticle. The virus then invades the cells of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, and clinical infection ensues within a matter of days. \n\nIn children, HSV-1 is the most likely causative agent. Infection involving the finger usually is due to autoinoculation from primary oropharyngeal lesions as a result of finger-sucking or thumb-sucking behavior in patients with herpes labialis or herpetic gingivostomatitis. \n\nSimilarly, in health care workers, infection with HSV-1 is more common and usually is secondary to unprotected exposure to infected oropharyngeal secretions of patients. This easily can be prevented by use of gloves and by scrupulous observation of universal fluid precautions. \n\nIn the general adult population, herpetic whitlow is most often due to autoinoculation from genital herpes; therefore, it is most frequently secondary to infection with HSV-2. \n\nSubsequent to the initial exposure, an incubation period of 2-20 days is common. Although a prodrome of fever and malaise may be observed, most often initial symptoms are pain and burning or tingling of the infected digit. This usually is followed by erythema, edema, and the development of 1- to 3-mm grouped vesicles on an erythematous base over the next 7-10 days. These vesicles may ulcerate or rupture and usually contain clear fluid, although the fluid may appear cloudy or bloody. Lymphangitis and epitrochlear and axillary lymphadenopathy are not uncommon. After 10-14 days, symptoms usually improve significantly and lesions crust over and heal. \n\nViral shedding is believed to resolve at this point. Complete resolution occurs over subsequent 5-7 days. \n\nAs is typical of other herpetic infections, herpetic whitlow is characterized by a primary infection, which may be followed by a latent period with subsequent recurrences. After the initial infection, the virus enters cutaneous nerve endings and migrates to the peripheral ganglia and Schwann cells where it lies dormant. The primary infection usually is the most symptomatic. Recurrences observed in 20-50% of cases are usually milder and shorter in duration.\n\nHerpes generally sets up shop in one place. Once it's there, it recurs in that place but doesn't spread elsewhere, because antibodies in the bloodstream keep it from getting a toehold. (Otherwise, everyone with a cold sore would spread herpes all over the body every time they washed their face.)\n\nYou can get whitlow from touching someone's mouth who is shedding herpes (e.g. dentists, hygienists.) But most of the time, people with herpes anywhere have no real idea where it originally came from.\n\nIf recurrences are frequent or painful you should look into taking an oral antiviral pill wither all the time or as soon as an outbreak starts. Of course, you'll want to be absolutley sure (by culture of a fresh outbreak) that what you had was really herpes and not, say, bacteria.\n\nIt is advisable that, because the infection can orginate from the HSV-1, that it can be transmitted to the sexual organ(s) through touch with the open sores on the infected appendage.\n\n-Good Luck


Dr. Adkins died a fat man...do I really need to say more? Carbs=energy...do people really want to not have energy? I know several people that followed high-carb diets and lost weight! They weren't lethargic either...

I am not going to acknowledge the how Dr. Atkins died.  However, I will say that if you read and learn about the WHOLE concept behind the Atkins low carb lifestyle, you will see that it works and understand the science behind it.\n\nMost people just want a quick fix and associate the induction phase of Atkins as the entire diet.  There are different phases that you go through as you progress.\n\nAtkins and all diets are about eating the right foods. Foods consist of either carbohydrates, protien or fat. Eating the right mix of these is the key.\n\nAtkins advocates controlling the intake of carbs and eating the right fats. There are different types of carbs depending on the absorption rate into the blood stream. There is a tool called the glycemic index to help you determine the absorption rate. Typically, the lower the rate the better. See the source below.\n\nI used the Atkins approach and lost 60 pounds. I still live the low carb lifestyle and have maintained my weight for over two years.\n\nUltimately, it is about calories taken in and burned. Regardless of which diet you choose, you should get on some sort of a light exercise plan. Changing your diet will help you lose weight. However, exercise and diet will jump start it.\n\nI would recommend doing some research for yourself. You should have a full understanding of any diet plan. For any diet to be effective, it has to be a lifestyle change. I would also consult a doctor before starting for a general checkup and bloodwork. This way you can compare your results later down the road.


My sinus doesn't get stuffed. Rather, it collapses completely. It never happens to both sides but it's still annoying and makes it difficult to sleep. Sometimes if I turn over one side will clear up and the other will collapse.

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


i am an appethist(doesn't believe in just about anything).  The only things that i believe in are vampires, hell, and reincarnation.  Well, tell me if you think he's out there... doubt it though

well im atheist myself so i dont believe in gd. i really dont care for it him or whatever you wanna call it. i think that "god" is a security blanket for the weak minded. all of the wars that we ever fought somehow tied into religion. i think its bogus


Is this the one?  People are always trying to get money the old-fashioned way: sue!\n\nhttp://www.entmag.com/news/article.asp?EditorialsID=5092


Neon Genesis Evangelion or NGE is THE anime. It redefined the way anime was made. The plot revolves around Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, and Asuka Langley Soryu. These are the pilots of the EVAs. These machines were designed to combat the Angels, beings not unlike us but who would rather see us dead. The rest you have to figure out on your own by watching but I recommend this to ANYONE who likes T.V at all.


The definition of atheist is one that definitely does not believe in God. An agnostic is not sure. I haven't yet met someone that has studied all the proofs of God and has disputed them all. I also haven't found anyone that is sure that the world we live in came to be by chance. According to statistics, there is tremendously much more chance that a book came about by throwing a bottle of ink and a bunch of papers down from a tall building. (If you claim to be an agnostic, I don’t understand how can someone give up eternity if he is not sure there is nothing there. The answer is, if you do God’s will, you think you are missing out on having a good time - which is also a big fallacy).

you are right.  evolution is a statistical imposibility\n\nthe odds of even one species evolving like the bat for instance.  with allits specialized functions and abilities....   its like a tornado hitting a junkyard and assembling a fully functional Boeing 747.  and thats just one species.  also i like it when you confront athiests and agnostics with hard fact PROOVING evolution CANNOT HAVE HAPPENED.  like this.\n\nthe earths rotation is slowing.  this is a measured, proven, scientific, fact.  If you were to rewind time adding as you go back the ammount of speed lost. you would find that as little as 1 mil years ago. the earth would be spinning so fast that the centripital force would cause everything to be flung off into space.  \n\nthats just one way and there are many other ways to disprove evolution.  oddly enough whenever you tell these things to an evolutionist and or athiest/agnostic.  they just kind of stand there with a not so bright look on thier face...


We are raising our grandkids and can get no help because we are the grandparents. But if they would of went to foster care, the state would pay them to take care of them. The children are 16yrs, 14yrs, 13yrs, and 7yrs old. My husband is 65 and I am 51. I really wish more grandparents would speak up with me and let's get some help here. We've already sacrificed and raised our own kids, but do NOT want to see them in the system. The State should be willing to help grandparents like they do foster care homes, and it shouldn't matter if we are millionares or using the nest egg we build up for old age, either one, the State is not backing up grandparents, but want to keep them with family. Right, but with NO help. It is very wrong to do this to grandparents that stand up and not LET their grandchildren go to Foster care. It's NOT fair to GRANDPARENTS anywhere. Hope to hear back from someone in this same predicament. Wish I knew who to write in Congress.!!!!!!! Help me to help Grandparents!!

Why not start by writing ur local Congress representative? Also, many charities have crises & family grants & loans. Try getting info. abt ur local ones from ur local social worker/ advice centre.


my wife was told it would pay off her mortgage and be left with a nestegg. does this seem reasonable or should you always decline the first offer?
