No, because those are freedoms.  But I do think that we should be issued something like a nerf bat that we can smack people with for being annoying or dumb.  It should stun them for about a minute so they realize they are annoying and stupid!


I have a very bad head cold. How do i get rid of it quickly and easily?

green tea infused with sliced ginger root and a bit of honey will relieve some of the symptoms, though not heal you any more quickly. \n\nZicam is awesome, and works well.


Just curious cos lots of people stopped bying chicken cos o f da flu.

I would more or less suspect that food poisoning would happen, then stomach cramp's, then the emergency room.  But as far as anyone dying from this, I would have to say, "I never heard of someone dying of bad bird"... Dr Checko... (Nickname)

Milicic & Arroyo for Cato & a future first round pick. I've had faith in Darko up until now. He was picked before Carmelo, Wade, Bosh and many other good players. But this trade is painful to swallow. Cato, at his best, is an ok player. Cato is a good shot blocker, but other than that he's bellow average in evrything else. Cato is older now and has been hurt this season. All I can say is Darko must suck if the Pistons were willing to make this trade. I felt the Pistons should have been playing Darko more and sitting McDyess in exchange. I would have thought Darko for Cato and the draft pick would have been bad, but then throw in Arroyo, who's a decent player, is insulting. The Pistons really messed up with Darko. Granted the damage has already been done. Darko has been on the bench for the last two years and has become the joke of the league. Darko hates the Pistons and they wouldn't have been able to resign him anyway. Cato won't do much. The pick better turn out to be good.

The Pistons traded Milicic and Arroyo to open up salary cap space for Ben Wallace (free agent at the end of the season) and Chauncey Billups (free agent at the end of the next years season). I like Milicic, I think he has a good upside to him. Arroyo, he is a player that Joe Dumars did not want in Detroit in the first place. The reason Arroyo came to Detroit was because Larry Brown wanted him here. With Lindsey Hunter coming back, there isnt much need for Arroyo. Hunter is a better defender and he does not turn the ball over as often. I live in Detroit, and when Arroyo got here, Dumars expressed how Brown was the one who wanted him, not Dumars. I wouldnt question Joe Dumars on his executive decisions because he has done a fantastic jobs thus far. Cato is just another big man to replace Milicic. The Pistons mainly just lose youth with bringing Cato in replace of Milicic. I hope Milicic does well in Orlando, and I think he will. The first round draft pick in '07 for the Pistons will give them 2 first rounds picks, so they may be able to trade away one pick for another player. It will probably work out.


He is a Carolina Hurricane. He is on the Taxi squad for the Canadian Olympic Hockey team. He is 6ft. 4in. weighs about 205.

No he doesn't but I happen to be his best friend, I could hook you up with him if you want only if you pick me as the best answer.


some feel females need that for completion

When women are younger, they use their sexuality to get things, such as comforts and attention, and eventually a baby. When they get older and have gotten the child bearing thing out of the way, they realize that this type of power is waning, and they prioritize the sex itself.


It wasn't drugs, just lack of entertainment. There wasn't much else to do but look at the sky and dream.


when we update our windows..some updates are being installed if windows is reinstalled,again windows have to update...there is any way to save the updates when it have been installed in the comuter

You could slipstream the Windows CD thus including the newest updates.  Just Google {slipstream windows xp} and you'll find tons of guides.\n\nOR\n\nYou can use Norton Ghost and make an image of the hard drive.  You can easily add updates as they come too.  You'll also have to use Sysprep (Google it) because doing this can cause hardware conflicts if the image is going on a PC with different hardware. It's a good idea to do Sysprep even if the hardware is the same so each computer will have it's own unique SID.


If they believe God created everything, isn't it easy to just accept science and say "Oh - so that's how he did it"?

The problem isn't evolution. The problem is the 'science' they use to 'prove' it.\n\nFirst, they started with an unsupported assumption (that the earth is millions / billions) of years old, then they used circular reasoning between varying fields of science to support that precept as fact, then they assumed without any evidence (in fact, in the face of their own evidence to the contrary) that one species can evolve into another.  Fact:  DNA strands of different lengths or different RNA locations cannot combine.  That means in order to produce say, a human, from say, gorillas, a male and a female gorilla would have to have identically mutated genes at exactly the same time at exactly the same place, find each other and successfully mate.  The probability of that happening one time (ape to man) exceeds the most liberal mathematical calculations of probability.  To happen thousands or hundreds of thousands of times to evolve from a single cell organism to any mammal way exceeds ANY mathematical concept of possibility.  What science has done is said "This is what we are going to prove, don't confuse us with the facts."


I took a survey and then I started receiving all the spam. \ncan I get rid of it? also would like to do away with the yahoo personals that I receive, am not interested with them at this time

You can activate your 'Bulk' mail, perhaps still on 'Off' mode. Or, for example for the Yahoo! Personals, you can click the 'Unsubscribe' link, normally it is always contained in every email you receive,  and follow the instruction to unsubscribe it.


can someone give me a simple mathematical equation that i can use at the craps table to give me my payout from the house odds and the free odds bets. using the ratios given for the house odds and the free odds is there a simple way to figure out my payout. if i use "n" as the variable for my initial bet. example: if i use $5 as my initial bet what will my payoff be if i bet on the pass line, dont pass line, come line, dont come line, field, place, propositon bets. hope this makes sense. if not email me and i will try to explain it further. thanks

i am unshure about using tampons does it hurt and  can it give you any infections?

If I were you I would stick to wearing pads.Although tampons are convenient and less messy tampons can cause an infection if they are left in too long, also your body needs to flush itself so my personal opinion is to stick with the pads, maybe until your a little older.


I live on a colta sack, and want to have a dinner party.  I just want to invite 15 people; probably 7 cars.  My driveway can fit 4 cars <not thoses SUV things...cars> back to back, and I may also get one additional space in frount of my house.\n\nIs it my responsability to help them park?  If so, any suggestions on leading guest to park in a colta sack?

Tell everyone it is a "Walking Party".  Tell them it is really popular in Europe, and they shouldn't come over in cars.  THEY HAVE TO WALK (jogging also accepted) at least one mile coming to your place.  Mention that if you see their car, you won't let them in.  Oh, and also, tell them to bring lots of wine so if they are upset at walking, they soon be drunk and forget about it.


Everytime i go with somebody boyz that are cute they hurt my feelings like cheating when i didnt do nothin and plus i would never cheat on them. I rarely go with somebody now. My friend told me to give ppl ( the average )a chance and i end up getting hurt again. I need advice why boyz dont know how to treat a female right and what i should do?

Females tend to grow up, emotionally, faster than men. But eventually men catch up. Some say from 16 years old till 20 women grow faster than men, but when men go into their mid 20s, the catch up with the ladies.\n\nI would dare to say, without really knowing, that you are dating "inmature" males...


The coumadin is for clotting due to damage to my Vina Cava from IgG therapy. I have a 70% blockage of scar tissue so I can not go off the drug.

Yeah I take coummadin too and get dizzy and even fall though we are uncertain if it the drug itself causing the problem or if it is just my MS. \n If You experience dizziness, consider these tips:\n\nBe aware of the possibility of losing your balance, which can lead to falling and serious injury.  \n\nSit or lie down immediately when you feel dizzy. \n\nAvoid driving a car or operating heavy machinery if you experience frequent dizziness. \n\nUse good lighting if you get up in the night. \n\nWalk with a cane for stability. \n\nAvoid using caffeine, alcohol and tobacco. Excessive use of these substances can restrict your blood vessels and worsen your signs and symptoms. \n\nWork closely with your doctor to manage your symptoms effectively. \n\nMayo clinic they suggest these tips


I kept all tools in one drawer & now the one I like to use on my puter has been magnatized by another one. Am I wrong in assuming that I shouldn't use a magnetic screwdriver on puter?

Demagnetizers were used on cassete tape heads to keep the heads from developing "residual magnetism" and slowly erasing your recorded programs each time the tape was played.\nThey were also used on larger reel to reel tapes to blank a tape before recording, they were called bulk erasers.\nEither one will have enough intensity to work on a screwdriver.\nA magnetized screwdriver needs to be de-magnetized if you have any doubts at all.


In chaos theory, we hear a lot about the proverbial butterfly whose wings cause a whisper of wind. This then escalates into a hurricane. There seem to be valid mathematical and physical concepts in chaos theory, however the butterfly example stretches credulity.

>>>>>Is the butterfly that flutters its wings before a hurricane just a metaphor?\n\nNo, it really exists. I suggest you go out and kill the bloody thing before it causes any more hurricanes.

i'm really worried, has anyone experienced this before?

For spyware solutions, Spybot Search & Destroy works very well.  If you are willing to try Microsoft's beta, you can also consider defender.

The "smartest" (IQ-wise) man in the USA works as a night club bouncer (IQ = 196). The smartest in the UK (IQ = 205) is an unemployed woman who spends her days watching TV. Etc. How come people with an IQ between 130 and 150 do a lot better than those with an IQ above 170?

imup4unow is right about high IQs and social disorders but schizophrenia tops the list. Also people with high IQs tend to have poor communication skills when it comes to verbalizing their feelings.  Extreme talent often seems to have a price. We see this all the time in artists, musicians, scientists and philosophers. I think failures in life is a harsh term. You need to look at what a persons goals in life are before they are deemed a failure. A truely lazy person may want to do nothing more than lie around all day. If they are truely happy is that failing?


I finally broke up with him, but i dont understand.  He always said he was busy working and never had time for me.  He use to call me all the time and then he stopped. i was always calling him and he sometimes called back. he say i will call you when i get off and then dont. he had time to go to the club and hang with his friends, but not me.

Some people don't want to be the bad guy and break the relationship, so they make you do it for them.

we used to have sattelite but then it got cut off when we got cable internet we told them we had sattelite so they left the premium channels unlocked and the cable tv channels unlocked we don't pay for the cable tv but we pay 50 for internet we only get 768kbps going down and 256kbps going up they said they were going to increase the speed to 5mbps down in mid january but we have yet to see it is what we are doing is wrong?

Well i must go against what briansays it is NOT illegal because it was their Mistake for not locking it if they are so absent minded not to lock the channels then they must not really care if you watch them without paying or if your paying it is and if they say you have to pay more sue them because that would be illegal it is not going to get ugly. i know what i'm talking about.


The separation hurts. It's so painful to think about what you've lost. \n\nDo you put everything that reminds you of them into a little box or photo album, to let your mind forget? \n\nDo you ever look back, or does it eventually fade away and disappear from your memory?\n\nDoes it still affect you 10 years after they're gone, or have you hardened yourself into thinking nothing ever happened?

They say "Time heals all wounds"  It hasn't come true for me yet.\n\nI married an alcoholic, hoping he'd change.  I loved him dearly, and we had a great friendship, too.  I had to divorce him when he didn't change, and by then I had a lot of anger and resentment.  That was almost 9 years ago.  Less than two years later, he died from liver failure at the age of 39.  My heart was broken seeing him in the casket.  Our son was 7 at the time (he's 14 now).\n\nWe still miss him and talk about him, and I know sometimes my son is kind-of upset that his actual memories are fading.  We also have our photos and other objects we remember him by.  We look at them from time to time -- it seems less frequent as the years pass.  \n\nBut I still cry, and I still talk to my deceased ex-husband sometimes.  His was a very tragic life, and I wish things could have been different.  But I can't change the past, only learn from it.  But still, I grieve for what could have been...

There is a rumor, that I personally believe is false, that is saying Pennsylvania State Police are setting extreme quotas for about 30 days.  It is said that each officer will be required to pull someone over every 10 minutes while on duty.\n\nThis sounds very extreme to me.  I browsed the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code, but found it a bit overwhelming to look through.\n\nI know any such quotas are illgal in California and other states, can anyone tell me if it is also illegal in Pennsylvania?  Thanks.

Yes.\n\n  There is a 1981 Pennsylvania law banning the practice of "directly or indirectly" suggesting that an individual police officer should issue "a certain number of traffic citations." \n\n  However, there has been an ongoing investigation in Pennsylvania for the past few years about the Pennsylvania State Police issuing quotas for their troopers to meet.  The only reason they are getting away with it is that they are calling them "averages" and "standards" to hide the fact that it is a quota.

Do you think it is okay to use one or two guys (separately of course) with whom you have been involved with for a while, for sex? - especially when you feel as though basically, that is the kind of relationship that you have with these guys, even though you told yourself that the same ole situation is no longer working for you and that you now want a commitment and long term relationship and your ready to meet someone else.  Is it okay to call them up if your hormones are raging or should you just tough it out and wait for what you want?

Tricky question. I have to stay that if you are ready and want to move on, then you should truely cut off your ties clean and start fresh.\n\nBut having said that you ARE single so there's nothing to stop you from wanting to get it on with someone you know. Just make sure both parties understands it's purely physical.\n\nRemember as soon as you start seeing someone (even if you haven't start being intimate with him yet) you MUST end it with the other guys or you will be cheating on your current man.

i am kind of into scrapbooking, so my boyfriend took me to the first place that we went to together, it is a nature reserve. we pulled up and started to go for a walk and he said that he had something to give me so yeah i am thinking that is a ring but it ended up being a bunch of supplies for scrapbooking. He then gave me a scrapbook, i opened it and he had made a page with pictures of each of us and then there was a poem in the middle.  he had told me that he needed my digital camera for something at work so i let him borrow it after he showed me the scrapbook he gave me my camera and told me to look at the pictures i was flipping through the pictures and there was one of a ring. He then pulled out the ring and i gave him a hug and started crying i wouldnt let him get down on his knee to ask me cause i just wanted to hug him and cry. but i finally let him and i said yes. i typed this very fast hopefully it makes sense.


...when the basis of their beliefs totally clashes with each other.  how do people choose? are scientists, researchers, and college students non-religious?  If not, how do they separate science from religion when they both teach different things?

The history of Western science IS the history of religion. Science started as religious philosophy- the source of most science, education, and medicine in the Western world.\n\nPeople started to notice that the world worked in logical, predictable ways, just as a logical creative God would have made it, then sought to learn about the underlying rules of the universe.\n\nSometimes, one side or the other gets full of itself (sadly, religion has most often been the offender) and starts making proclaimations and statements of doctrine that conflict with what the other side is finding to be the reality.\n\nThe classic case if Gallileo saying the Earth rotates around the sun, and they both are moving. That conflicted the the THEORY that the Earth is the center of God's creation- NOT any Biblical statement, just a dry, human theory- more of a guess, really, since it was obviously easy to set up an experiment to disprove.\n\nWhen both groups recognize the purpose and value of the other group, without getting all huffy about things that cannot be proven, they get along just great!


there are a lot of people recieving welfare that don't deserved it.i think this is one of the main reasons for homelessness.   what are your veiw on this.

I think you are right. My mother lives off of wellfare. In the beginning it was just to get back on her feet but i guess she realized what an easy ride it was and just kept using it. So now she goes from place to place relying on wellfare and other people. I think way too many people are on wellfare that don't need it but we need to at least give them a chance to do get straight and find work. I think people need to take responsibility for their lives and maybe use wellfare only when desperatley needed but work themselves up to a normal level of living.


there is no absolute unqualified presiedent privilege of immunity?

The President is not immune to the laws of our country, if that's what you are asking.\n\nDo not confuse the statements made by the news services with fact.\n\nThe screams of the opposition (right or left) are just that.  \n\nIf there were any cause to charge the President, the screams would subside and the grins would start.  As long as they scream, it's only a tantrum.


We are trusting of one another and I'm a very secure female, but for some reason something about this one relationship doesn't sit too well with me.  He told me about her and I know they chat, but he seems to goo too overboard with it.  I don't want to say anything because then he'll know that I read his e-mails.  Should I or should I not say something ?  If so, when?

Yes, you need to talk to him about how you feel.  Admit that you've tried to be ok with his friendship with this person but as much as you try you really aren't ok with it.  Your suposed to be his best friend now, not her and if your uncomfortable with the relationship he has with her he should be willing and want to end it in order not to ruin what you two have.

I have used Taxcut for the past four years. The Federal portion seems okay, but when I try to go into the State section I get "install key not valid" with a message that the key is in the "confirmation email". (On line, others report that installation failed at 21% with an error message about inability to install "mmvdpro.swf").    There may be a confirmation email for those who download the program, but I bought the Taxcut Deluxe CD, no key or email involved! Forget about calling customer service, you spend hours on hold trying to reach a clueless customer service rep. And as for email, you'll get back a 'cut and paste' response that the key is in the confirmation email! After 7 emails, my problem has been 'escallated'. Response in 48 hours. Yeah, right. I seem to have plenty of company -in Google or similar search engine try typing "taxcut install key not valid". Buggy software, horrible customer service...has anyone been able to resolve this bug?

I have heard that Taxcut has some defective CDs this year. Go to the feedback section on Amazon.com for this software and you'll see what I mean.


ESO or extended sexual orgasm its a mechanism in which you can extend both male and female orgasm up to hours. My question is has it worked for you? In case you know what im talking about. There is a book which i bought at el paso tx airport which changed my life, it even has excercises and ilustrations. it basicly teaches you to please your partner.\nlol.

it only works for those who sell the book - they get rich and hire hookers who tell them they are doing great in bed.


Muslim chicks are awesome because they will do anything their man tells them to do. They dont talk back either. Thats the best!

According to my reading Islam considers men and women to be equal.  Women may work outside of the home as long as their position is not in direct contradiction to the dictates of their faith.  Women retain the right to use their earnings as they see fit and to educate themselves.  According to the Quran "And their Lord hath accepted them, and answered them: Never will I suffer to be lost the work of any of you,be he male or female: ye are members of one another..." To grow intellectually is the duty of every Muslum, man or woman. Anyway food for thought...


What if the girl is really nice the boy tells her that he doesn' t play girls because he doesn't like to hurt girls feelings but hten they turn around and do it any way. is it a sign or u just need to trust them more

it's not one side game.both boys and girls love playing with eachother.a girl-boy breaks your heart,so u make the next girl-boy pay for it.and it goes on and on...so do not trust anybody and don't believe his-her stories.just act like u believe,but be sure to keep something in advance if things go wrong so u won't be the only one being played.


we own property and are rebuilding a house on it.  We had a recent survey showing that our neighbor has only 14 inches of property attached to his house.  There is a plant box that extends 36 inches beyond the neighbors house.  We need to cut the the plant box which belongs to us (based on a recent survey) and it will include cutting down a tree so we can put up our fence.  We will be extending the existing fence line down to the end of the property.  \nWe received a letter from the neighbor saying the plant box was her property and she is having her own survey done.   She also said that actually the property was hers due to reverse possession.  What does that mean and should we be worried?\nNicky

The phrase is adverse possession.  It is, in general simple terms, the principle that if someone exercises rights over a property for a long time, it becomes thiers.  \n\nThe law is different in different states, and complicated.  If you didn't know that the fence line was in the wrong place, it may well not be adverse possession.\n\nI know there are lots of clinics set up to help people with property issues in NYC.  Perhaps you can consult one of those if you don't want to consult a private lawyer.  (I knew someone who found help that way, and found the place through her congressman.)\n\nBut I recommend waiting until she has her survey done before you take irreversible action.


I know I have to take the return check into my attoreys.  However, I e-filed the girl who did my taxes said she efiled when she filed bankruptcy and it was ok she still took the check in.  I tried to reach my attorney today but couldnt get a hold of him to at least give him a heads up.  Does anybody know how this works?  Also how much should I expect them to take of it?  I had 3 things I filed on 2 of which were secured with other property?

If you filed bankruptcy in October, 10/12 of your tax return is part of your bankruptcy estate.  See if you listed it in schedule B and if possible, claim an exemptio for it in Schedule C.  Then tell the IRS to send it to you.


wife of four years, 3 kids, she said she doesnt love me anymore and never got over an old boyfriend. this boyfriend she use to tell me how bad he was to her and the kids and how much she hated him. now she says she loves him but is not sure if she even wants to pursue the relationship after our divorce. one of the three kids is his.  he hasnt seen this child in years and is all the sudden back in the picture. his own child calls me dad and him by his name because i raised the kid. she admits to me that i was the perfect husband and couldnt ask for a better father but she just cant change her feelings and it would be wrong to stay married to me if she didnt love me. problem here is even though she has hurt me so bad i still love her with all my heart and want her back. what can i do. what should i do.  i tried buying things, letters, calling but it all seems to push her away further.   any advice?

"Desperation is a stinky cologne"... I was desperate about 3 years ago.  It was the ugliest thing you ever saw.  Divorce is always ugly... but let me tell you that if a woman has made up her mind about a divorce... its made up.  To make it worse, she decided a long time before she actually told you so it's set in her mind and it won't be undone.  My ex told me we wouldn't be getting divorced if had done this or hadn't done that and the more I worked on those things... the angrier she became.  Why, because she made up her mind a long time ago and and she doesn't want you screwing up her justifications.  Let her go do what ever she is going to do and you just work on getting back to God... because that could be all that saves you from doing "something very stupid"... I can hear it in your voice.  I could go on, but I really just want to answer the question you posed "what to do when my wife loves another and kicks me out but i still love her?"... You have to pray for God to show you what he wants you to get out of this and to pray for her and the well being of your children.  Don't worry about her love right now... just God's and you will be in a much better place a year or so from now.


I'm half way there, but really do crave meat/fish/chicken every once in a while...

101 reasons to go vegetarian:\nhttp://www.flex.com/~jai/articles/101.html\n\nA DOZEN EXCUSES TO STOP EATING MEAT  \nWHEN YOU CUT OUT MEAT:  \n\n 1. You'll feel better.  \n\n 2. You'll save money - a LOT of money - on your food bill.  \n\n 3. You'll have easier bowel movements, and will not need to pay good money for extra store-bought fiber.  Meat has no fiber at all, and vegetarian diet is fiber rich.  \n\n 4. You'll lower your serum cholesterol levels.  Dean Ornish, M.D. prescribes vegetarian diet instead of coronary bypass surgery.  It works as well or better, is cheaper, and is immeasurably safer. \n\n 5. Your risk of cancer, as well as heart disease, will be cut in half.  Cornell University conducted a ten year study in China in which the diets of over 300,000 people were investigated.  The more animal products eaten, the higher the incidence of cancer and heart disease.  The less animal products eaten, the lower the risk.  The evidence is indisputable. \n\n 6. You'll have fewer dishes to do, and those that you do have will be a lot less greasy.  \n\n 7. You will save lives.  There is plenty of food on Earth for each and every person.  There is not enough for every person if we raise all those pigs and steers, too.  If we all go meatless, or nearly so, famine is over.  (Lappe, Ten Myths About World Hunger)  \n\n 8. You will save water (which is one of the reasons you stop famine).  In the USA, fully one half of ALL our drinkable water goes to raise farm animals.  \n\n 9. You will reduce pollution.  Runoff from cattle farms is a major source of polluted water in America.  \n\n 10. Your breath will smell better.  I know this is pushing the point, so try this simple experiment.  Let your dog breathe on you for a few minutes.  Now find a cow and compare.  The vegetarian animal has different digestion and different bacteria, and this results in different odors.  I know: years ago, I milked 120 cows twice a day.  \n\n 11. You will have less dandruff, and your skin will look nicer.  I speak from personal and observed experiences.  You just try it!  \n\n 12. You will automatically and effortlessly find your ideal weight.  Meat, even lean meat, is 10% to 15% saturated fat.  Cut that out and you start to drop   the pounds.  I don't have to tell you about ice cream, or the sugar in ice milk or frozen yogurt.  Your weight loss will be gradual but progressive.   Most vegetarian foods are by nature lower fat and lower calorie, unless you become a silly "pudding vegetarian" and eat a lot of desserts and junk food. \nhttp://www.doctoryourself.com/eatright.html


I study Latin and Greek in high school in Spain and what we do is mainly translation of ancient texts (Caesar, Salustius, Plato ...) and also some things about literature, history and word evolution or influence into Spanish. I want to know if students in US do the same or not.\n( It'd be great having an answer from a student or a teacher)

I started out slow, learning the pronounciations and stuff. Then first and second declension nouns, first and second conjugation verbs. Then we got harder. Now we are learning imperatives. I won't translate documents for several years.


Altough i do not want to hang out w/ them @ the same timeshe doesnt want me dating him and weve been dating for six months and i love him but ive known her for 11 years!! help me!! please thanx canofsoup3

First of all, you answered your own question, eleven years, you can't throw that away over your boyfriend. I look at this way, tell both of them how you feel. You don't like her dissing him, and you are going to be her friend regardless if he likes her or not. You just tell them both, they both are going to be in your life regardless of who likes it or not. If they care for you, they will arrange a way to deal with it. Your friend sounds like she cares, but sometimes she might need to tone down the dislike for your guy. Just be honest with both.

I honetly just want to travel. I want to make enough money from the stock market to travel 24/7.

It really depends on what you want to do with the degree you get. Usually no it doesn't really matter as long as you have excellent grades and you have stellar achievements. Tons of extracurriculars or at least great references.Good luck!


Save the tree using less Paper Towel\nWould you use less paper towel after you wash hands?\nAfter wash hand, 1st squeeze hand & 2nd bounce your finger to have more water left your hand. Then use paper towel.\nI also suggest don't pull twice or tripple time to have paper towel.\nIf all people save 30% or 50% paper towel a year we can save millions of tree & save the environment and earth.

Great tip.  Also use the air dryer (if available) to save paper towels.


My maiden name was NOBBS, i hated it, and couldnt wait to get married to get rid of it.

When I was young, I hated being at the end of the alphabet, having a T last name, so I swore that I would marry someone with a higher name than mine in the alphabet.  Well, let me tell you to watch what you wish for, because I got saddled with Kuchenmeister.


Please tell me the names and the links for getting more information about these fish.\nThank you in advance.

I've taken the temp at various times of the day. And just before sunrise the thermometer reads the lowest temp. \nWHY??

Because it has been darkest for longest at this time. Why is the high at around 6:00 pm? same reason. The sun has been at its peak for longest then.


i want to asked about Paint backing oven.

Food can be heated at least four different ways in an "oven" and some use more than one way.  The oven may be named for the principle method of heating because of any advantages.\n\nMicrowave ovens use microwaves to agitate the electrons of molecules in the food, especially water.  Conduction is the direct flow of heat from one body to another by contact.  Although an oven may not heat food directly by conduction, the food container (bake pan?) may heat up first then conduct heat into the food.  Food may also be heated in an oven by convection.  Hot gas rises and cool gas falls due to differences in density when the hot gas expands and the gases circulate through the oven by natural or forced convection (perhaps using a fan).  Lastly food may be heated in an oven by radiation of heat similar to the warmth you feel when holding your hand up towards the sun.  Radiation heating occurs because the electrons in the metal oof the heating elements are raised to higher orbits and when they return to rest positions they re-emit the energy (supplied by electricity passing through resistance) as infrared radiation which is electromegnatic like light but of much longer wavelengths.  Food is broiled by close exposure to the hot heating element.\n\nRadiation heating may also be produced using banks of specialy light bulbs (which may grow red) that emit infrared radiation.  When the radiation strikes the object to be heated (paint, etc.) it enters the molecules and agitates the electrons of the materrial increasing vibrations heats the material.\n\nSome colors are more easily heated by infrared radiation than others.  At the extremes, black absorbs almost all radiation and heats up while pure white reflects most radiation and stays cool.  That is why you may stay "cool" in the summer heat wearing light or white clothes (like the desert dwellers).


Listen, yosemite same and the boys where on all of our televisions when we were kids. I do not think it has much of an impact as long as the children have good parenting. Of course there are always a few genetically enclined kids who are prone to violence. If kids are taught by their parents that what they are watching or playing is not to be acted out in real life then they should be ok. Most parents simple let the kids do anything they like without any kind of supervision.\n\nI say bring back the yosemite sam, bugs bunny wars.\n\nPS the better question is how do political cartoons influence brainless adults. Can you say Jihad.

what's a toe loop, axle, lutz, sow cow? they're all jumps in figure skating, but they all look the same to me. What's the difference?

An axel is a jump where your legs go up one at a time and land on one foot where the other is out in back of you.(i do axels in my hip hop classes:)  ) a sow cow is like a quick spin in the air and land with two feet on the ground. Thats all I know, sorry. i hope this helps!


I like the slow jams. old and new. what about you?

hey thans for the advice on my boyfriend i just really am scared! oh and mine is trapped in the closet all parts its just drama i love to hear it but not be in it


I have this workshop to do in the class. The topic is Attitude. I have to make ppl enjoy this workshop by engaging them in sum activity. Any role play, or quiz,etc. Can u suggest me sum good ideas which will make it a fun exercise?

You might start out with bringing the class right in on the topic by saying something like...  Can someone give me a definition of "Attitude"?  You may get one or 2 responses.  If you don't get any, then you can jump in with your definition of it.  You might even ask if they can tell you when someone had attitude with them.  Also remember to use a couple of different types of media for your presentation.  It can be slides, writing on chalk board, handouts, etc.  Good luck.

(If not, when did you decide to be one?)\nDo you need special training, education, or experience?\nWhat is a typical day like for you?\nWhat has been your happiest moment as a counselor?\nHow long have you been a counselor? Did you work anywhere else before this job?\nWhat's the hardest thing about your job?\nWhat do you enjoy most about your job?


A tremendous amount is traded on the global market. When trades are made does the actual gold get moved between countries or does the vast majority of it stay in the same location and just the ownership change?

It's all done on paper.  However a country has the right to demand the gold if it so desires.  But that is unlikely.


Does anybody knows if Charmed is going to the 9th Season?

TVGuide.com: So is this officially Charmed's final season?\nKern: Nobody at WB will commit one way or the other. I've heard nothing about it. As far as I'm concerned, this is it. Last year the show was held in limbo, but fortunately "the governor called" and we got another year. I wasn't able to craft a season or series finale [then], so I did sort of a hybrid, which to me was disappointing creatively. This year, with no contract for the girls [Alyssa Milano, Holly Marie Combs, Rose McGowan and Kaley Cuoco] and no contract for me, the WB seems to be looking forward to looking for "the next generation" of shows. We're still an expensive show, and all those factors tell me that, here in the middle of January, I'm just pushing toward the series finale. It's too late for them to say, "We want to find a way to make a ninth season" — but it doesn't mean there can't be a spin-off.

where does this backbone connect? I mean what are the endpoints of a backbone? Is it between ISPs?

The Internet backbone was the central network that linked all the parts of the Internet together. The term is now used as a loose term to describe the "core" of the current Internet.\n\nThe original Internet backbone was the ARPANET.Now it is shut down. The term "Internet backbone" is now sometimes loosely used to refer to the inter-provider links and peering points. However, with the universal use of the BGP routing protocol, the Internet functions with no single central network at all.\n\nThe Internet backbone consists of many different networks. Usually, the term is used to describe large networks that inter-connect with each others and have individual ISPs as clients. For example, a local ISP may provide service for a single town, and connect to a regional provider which has several local ISPs as client. This regional provider connects to one of the backbone networks, which provides nationwide or worldwide connections.\n\nThese backbone providers usually provide connection facilities in many cities for their clients, and they themselves connect with other backbone providers at Internet Exchange Point (IXP)s such as MAE-East in New York or FreeIX in France. The largest of these IXP's in terms of both throughput and accessible routes is the LINX (London Internet Exchange) in London's docklands.\n\nBackbone networks are usually commercial, educational, or government owned, such as military networks. Some large companies that provide backbone connectivity include MCI, UUnet, British Telecom, AT&T, France Télécom,BSNL and Teleglobe.


Why dont we get hungry while going through sickness?

When you have a cold or the flu you often have a stuffy nose and sinus congestion. A stuffy nose an cause taste perversion so nothing tastes right. If the food tastes odd, you don't want to eat.


If anyone knows of a program out there that makes the PC talk. Like when you turn it on it says something like (Hello Dave how are you doing today) Im trying to help one of my customers.

Oy! I have been through this before with my oldest daughter. \n\nWe went back and forth to the dr. and they said she had the flu. \n\nFinally about the 3rd time they did an ultra sound and it was the appendix. The dr. kept downplaying my concern and finally said I could see the surgeon if I REALLY WANTED TO. \n\nNow, my 13 year old has all the same symptoms. I decided to take her to the hospital right away. The ultra sound showed nothing. The dr. said we could get a cat-scan, but he didn't think it was necessary. \n\nWe are following up with our dr. today. But she is still in pain and has no appetite. Very similar to my older daughter. \n\nHas anyone ever dealt with this too? With a child?

I dont have kids, but I have had appendicitis for myself. Did they give your children a white blood cell count? I had severe pain in January of 2002, but my doctor said that my white blood cell count was normal, and that I didnt have appendicitis. That year in May, I had the same pain, but this time when I went in, they did a white blood cell count, and determined something wasnt right. But it is a dagger sharp pain that I felt that started at the top left of my stomach and moved to the bottom right (a common symptom).

Clinton Portis is averaging 1,483 yds. per season. Warrick Dunn is a pretty decent RB who sometimes is look at as better then Portis and hes only made 6,905 rushing yds. in 8 seasons. If Clinton Portis continues at the rate he is goin he could have about 11,864 rushing yds. in 8 seasons, almost double of Dunn. Clint Portis seems like an eventual Hall of Famer, right?

Yes, he has the potential to make the Hall of Fame, but he has to continue to be productive while avoiding injuries.  If he can stay injury free for the next 5 or 6 years, and the Redskins' offensive line holds up, he has a good chance to make it.

I've just seen an answer to someone elses question saying that on earth, a body's mass is equal to it's weight, yet take away the gravity & even though the body becomes weightless, the mass remains constant.

Mass can be defined as any structured  Matter that forms a volume. As opposed to other substances which are not mass and cannot be weighted;examples are masseless particles described in Relativity theories.\nWeight describes an interaction between two masses.\nBoth masses when touching would experience a force which we call weight. We on earth are able to sense weight. The greater the mass ,the more weight we feel.\n\nThe standard of weight is the kilogram which is measured on a balance scale is really a comparative measurement of mass.\nThe reason is that on a balance scale both masses experience the same acceleration. (aceleration is a measure of how much you are pushed down by gravity). Hence ,no matter where the scale is located in the gravity field it will always measure the same.\nHowever the case is not the same in a spring scale,because it directly measures a gravitational force. The scale at sea level would read different weight than the one on top of a high mountain. \nYou would not feel any weight if you were far away from a large mass as the earth. Since you have no mass interaction you would be weightless but not massless. Nevertheless, The gravity phenomena will still keep  you body in one piece.\nThe subject of measuring mass and weighing mass is not very clear to most people. It is very confusing ,so don't feel bad if you find it that way.


I wish to have a HTML file pop up with attributes of "no scroll bar", "no address  window",  fixed size and position, etc. In most cases of popups, these attributes are "forced from outside" when the popups are triggered or activated, usually placing the code or script somewhere in the event handlers' page. \n\nWhat I wish know is whether it is possible to place the code in the popup page itself. Then, when I click the "popup.html" file itself, its page would come up with all the desired attributes without being triggered (or activated, or configured) by any other handler! \n\nAnyone please give me a help.

It is possible by checking out various free java scripts sites and taking the code from there, or by using such a program as Namo Web Editor wich has a wizard that adds various built-in scripts to your html file, wich include the features you requested.

im an insiring drummer, really passionate about what i do, and i was wondering, to all you drummers only, who is your hero and why?

My hero is probably The Reverend from Avenged Sevenfold, but truth be told, Tony Williams is the best drummer I have ever heard.  If you have napster or anything like that, check out his song "Some Hip Drum $hit".  It is absolutely amazing.  Also, John Bonham (Led Zeppelin) could do some amazing stuff.  If you can stand the cookie monster vocals, check out Necrophagist.  Their drumming is amazing.


A yo-yo has a rotational inertia of 860 gcm2 and a mass of 110 g. Its axle radius is 2.1 mm and its string is 110 cm long. The yo-yo is thrown so that its its initial speed down the string is 1.4 m/s. \n(a) How long does the yo-yo take to reach the end of the string? \n s \n(b) As it reaches the end of the string, what is its total kinetic energy? \n J \n(c) As it reaches the end of the string, what is its linear speed? \n m/s \n(d) As it reaches the end of the string, what is its translational kinetic energy? \n J \n(e) As it reaches the end of the string, what is its angular speed? \n rad/s \n(f) As it reaches the end of the string, what is its rotational kinetic energy? \n J

One the surface, this appears to be a fairly difficult and mathmatically intense problem, but when you look at it more closely, it really only involves a few calculations.\n\nThe underlying concept is of course conservation of energy.  The yo-yo is allowed to drop a given distance, thus it experiences a change in potential energy.  The potential energy given up is transfered into both translational kinetic energy and rotational kinetic energy.\n\nWe know that the change in Potential energy = the change in total kinetic energy.  We know that the rotational KE + translational KE = total KE.\nPE = mgh\nTranslational KE = 1/2 m*v^2\nRotational KE = 1/2 I*w^2

She giggled and said "no but ive heard its good *smiles" and then i told her "well let me know it tastes after you try it okay?" and then she said "Okay, ill do that today *smiles*" and then i laughed and walked out of the gas station, does this mean she was flirting with me? Or does it mean that she probably likes me?

she may like you but she may just be friendly or she might be working for the pizza parlor and just tells customers that to get more sales lol\n\nbut what i am trying to tell you is that it could mean a lot of things and the only way for you to find out is to "test the waters" yourself so next time it happens, try to make the move so you'll know ok...


i want to create hexadecimal out of a word

Divide the decimal number by 16.   Treat the division as an integer division.   \nWrite down the remainder (in hexadecimal). \nDivide the result again by 16.  Treat the division as an integer division.   \nRepeat step 2 and 3 until result is 0. \nThe hex value is the digit sequence of the remainders from the last to first. \ncheck here: http://www.permadi.com/tutorial/numDecToHex/


maybe the workstation is the place that people stop and work.any answers?

You confused the definition of station.\nAllow me to clarify work station by breaking down the definitions of the base words.\n\nWork = activity in which one exerts strength or faculties to do or perform something.\n\nStation = a : the place or position in which something or someone stands or is assigned to stand.\n\nWorkstation= an area with equipment for the performance of a specialized task usually by a single individual


Even if something bad happens is there a purpose for it later on?

Imho, definitely yes. If you observe carefully, everything that ever happens, no matter how insignificant, bad, etc, will lead to different situations. It may seem bad at the moment, but later on you will be able to see that there is a reason why the 'bad' stuff happened.\n\n"Instead of asking, "Why Me, God?",\nI say, "Thank you, God."\nThen I wait until all the evidence rolls in."


You need your college degree first then continue on with certifications.  Certifications show you are serious, responsible and keeping up on the new knowlegde out there pertaining to your field or degree.


Serious question: I consulted with Tooth Fairy and she told me that if the child has been brushing his/her teeth properly and if he/she does not eat a lot of chocolate, she might consider Indian Rupees 100( about US $ 2.2) for the first tooth and half of that for the subsequent ones.


look at the picture of me and tell me if i am hideous.  i just want to know.

God doesn't create ugliness.  You're cute!  Be confident.


ok here is my setup 2.8ghz 80gb hard drive 256 sdram nvidia geforce mx4000 64mb.....now i know they recommend a video card with 128mb but im really wondering how can i get the absolute best out of my video card and to make sure its configured properly

Visit nVidia's website at www.nvidia.com and download the latest drivers for your video card.  Turn down graphics settings in the game's options and see if that improves performance.  If neither of those things helps, seriously consider upgrading your video card.  An mx4000 is three generations old and is sorely lacking in the performance needed for modern games.


This law is still in the books, so how do I go about doing this. Since we are at war, I should be able to get a ship and be a Privateer right? Ships are always being hit by pirates, and since they area type of terrorist, i should be able to hunt them on the high seas right?

If you had a Letter of Marquess, just exactly who or what would you go after?\n\nIt seems to me that you would need to make a case to go after specific persons rather a class of people.  You couldn't just get a letter to go after "pirates".


I know there must be a substance besides plasma in space.\nSpace -time =I have be try to conceive it. Space can be conceived as a volume of something.\n\nSpace- time =some type of fabric that you can sew toghether?\n\nThere appears a lot of 21st century physics theories that support the existance of the Aether.Are they real?

in our everyday life, all waves require a medium to travel in.  sound waves, water waves, you name it.\n\nso when it was discovered that light was a wave, and could even travel across a vacuum, there was no medium in the vacuum for the wave to travel in!  the ether was proposed to explain this - an invisible fluid-like substance that permeates all the universe, and it is through this fluid that light waves move.  essentially the question was:  "if light is a wave, what is waving?"  the ether was the answer.\n\nok, so that's all well and good, and nobody knew whether it was true or not for a long time.  \n\nhowever michelson and morley did an experiment in 1887 that pretty much showed that there was no ether, and that light therefore could be understood as not requiring a medium.  this understanding has been borne out by many other experiments that are consistent with an absence of the ether.\n\nhere are some cool pages that explain the essentials of the michelson-morley experiment:\nhttp://galileoandeinstein.physics.virginia.edu/lectures/michelson.html\nhttp://scienceworld.wolfram.com/physics/Michelson-MorleyExperiment.html


Check on cnn.com this: http://edition.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/europe/02/22/warcrimes.srebrenica/index.html and tell me, \ndo u think that the last line "In 1999 the U.N. admitted its error in expecting 100 Dutch troops to deter the Bosnian Serb army." is true? Was it a mistake? Or was it intentional? Please elaborate if you have evidences on either cases. Also, do you think that the Bosnians will win their case and get compensated?

I think it was a combination.  The intent wasn't so much to just let the Bosnian Serbs run rampant, but rather, the UN didn't want to take a hard line against them.  The higher-ups in the area totally fouled that up.\n\nThe Dutch forces, had they tried to fight, would probably have taken a lot of casualties, though whether or not they would have lost is another question.  It was a question of the will to fight -something soldiers by and large have, but most politicians don't.\n\nHopefully, there will be some kind of compensation, beyond catching Karadzic & Mladic.  It's going to be a while before Bosnia's ever fully restored (though it seems to be progressing).\n\nBasically, I think it was a lack of careful planning, as well as the UN's inability to give proper protection to those who needed it.


I have been with my husband off and on for almost 8yrs, it has been a rocky marriage.  We have gone thru affairs, abuse, and lots of other ugly things.  I left him over a month ago and tonight he threatened to commit suicide. I did all the normal things like "Im not worth your life and you have to think about the kids..." and of course I called the cops to report it. Iam 3hrs away and waiting to hear the worst I fear but how do I deal with this if he does do it how do I deal with ....

He isn't going to commit suicide.  I've heard the same thing over and over and over.  I have always heard that if someone is really going to commit suicide they aren't going to call and tell you, they are just going to do it.


This is a rediculous question but I was just selected for jury duty and I might be working on a murder case. I haven't gone in yet, I just got the letter. What all happens and will they sequester (or however you spell it :P) me if I'm on the murder trail. I live in a small town and I'm not sure how that works. Also I have an infant squirrel that needs to be fed every three hours. How will I deal with that? I can't tell them I have the squirrel because I'm not licensed and they can fine me (the jerks!). I don't have anyone to watch her so what do I do? Any info on jury duty would be appreciated. Thanks!

They will ask questions in order to determine if you know anything about the crime already. If you do, you won't be chosen.\n\nThey will also ask about your beliefs of capital punishment and things like that. If you tell them that you are for the death penalty 100%- there is a great chance you won't be chosen for the final jury. :) They don't like people who are that determined to send people to their deaths. Even if you don't believe this way, you can pretend to. It is up to you! \n\nGood luck.


You've got it right! "c" is the usual way the speed of light is notated. .37 c would be 37% of the speed of light.


I want to have a bonfire in Ocean Beach in San Francisco. What is the best way to start and extinguish a bonfire?

Make sure that it is ok with the local authorities. A night in jail would totally ruin the mood. Then start by digging a shallow hole (about 1 ft deep by 3 ft wide) in the sand. Lay some crumbled newspaper down and some small twigs on top.  Atleast enough to fill about half the hole. A started log can be purchesed from a department store (like Wal-Mart) or hardware store. Layer larger sizes of sticks on top until they are about the thicknes of your arm. Light the newspaper/starter log. The important things to remember is that coals are what keep a fire going. Setting up a good coal bed is what you are doing. Once that is acheived you can burn some of the larger logs. Make sure they are think and atleast 3 ft long but not longer that 5 ft. To put out the fire just throw the sand on it you dug out of the hole. Having a good sized shovel is a must. Make sure you have marshmallows and hot dogs on hand also!!


I'm not looking for a submissive woman, but at the same time I don't want somone ready to arm wrestle over all these isssues.

Hun I'm a very old fashioned girl, but in no way am I easily manipulated either. I am not into feminism because I think that's kind of lesbianish (not that I have anything against them), I do believe in equal rights though. Old fashioned does not mean we have to deal with all the things women had to deal with in the past. Sharing housework, well, I don't care for that, I'm a perfectionist and a clean freak, so when it comes to that, I need to do things my way or no way *lol*. I do believe in speaking my mind, but that doesn't mean I am going to stop being old fashioned. Do you really want someone old fashioned, or do you want someone you can manipulate?


I have what looks like a Pimple on my leg, kinda in the "bikini" area, but i am a guy.  Its light brown, and when i squeeze around it, it's hard.  Maybe Puss?  Or is it a pimple, or something else?  It hutts just a little bit as well.

ingrown hair or blood blister (women get these more often than men -in my family anyway).\nif you have any female friend who are 'pickers' (like to pop zits or pick at their nails etcl) get one of them to 'get it'. who knows you might end up with a girlfriend. not that you need one or don't have one, but hey i don't know.

c program to know whelther a number is signed or unsigned.\nmeans input is a number ,result shuould give type of number whelther signed or un signed.....

Easy if you restrict to integer types.\n\nCreate the following macro:\n\n#define IS_SIGNED(type) (((type) 0xFFFFFFFF) < 0)\n\nYou can now use it direction in your code as such:\n\nif (IS_SIGNED (char))\n{\n   stuff if it is signed\n}\nelse\n{\n   stuff if it is unsigned\n}\n\nNote that this implementation assumes that you maximum integer type is 32 bits. Pretty easy to change if it is otherwise though.\n\nI have done a LOT of multiple-platform code, char signing and byte ordering are the two biggest headaches.\n\nHope this helps.


if there exists such container.. then there might be possibility 2 go back to history..)am i right?

It is stored in the electromagnetic radiation produced by the event.  The "container" of this radiation is expanding outward on the surface of a sphere that is increasing in radius at a rate of 300,000 km/s, the speed of light.  Thus, we can indeed look back in time if we wait for this sphere to pass our location.  This is what we are doing every time we look up at the night sky.  We are seeing the electromagnetic radiation caused by events that happened long ago.  Even the light that we see coming from Alpha Centauri, our closest stellar neighbor, left there 4 years ago.  So when we look at Alfie-Cent (its "street" name) we are looking at an event that was "stored" for 4 years.

Try Limewire for a user-friendly and spyware-free p2p program.\n\nhttp://www.limewire.com/english/content/home.shtml\n\nEmule is excellent also, since it can block your IP, but it's a little more complicated to use.

I have to use Wallace Steven's (?) "13 ways of looking at a blackbird" as a promt, meaning I have to create a rendition of that poem about popping bubble wrap. I cant think of anything I'm not a creative person. I need ideas.

try to envoke feeling and sensations in the reader. tell the reader what the bubble wrap was around how to got it and express and associated the sensation to the bubble wrap poping in your hand that is most important part. If you pop the wrap just because elaborate on the mindless poping and how you do it because it please to the sense of touch and sound.

Was it Peter’s “Free Will” or the foretelling of the scripture that caused Peter to “Deny Jesus three times, before the male chicken crows?”

haha male chicken. i like that!\nActually, it was a bit of both. The bible says, "those he foreknew, he predestined, to become children of God." meaning, he does know, but at the same time, we are not puppets. We have a choice to do right or wrong. A free will.Peter chose wrong, was sorry for it later,and was forgiven.

I am running windows XP pro on both host and remote PC.  I have a PC connected to a webcam located in my cabin 3 hours away from my home to check the weather.  I use pcanywhere with a dial-up modem to connect. I connected about three times since I have been home but I can no longer connect.  I just keep getting a ring until pcanywhere times out.  Does anyone have a suggestion on what the problem could be? Or a better solution to connect to the PC?  I cannot get a ISP where my cabin is located only a phone line.

I use to dial in to 1000 of systems a day running PCanywhere.\nSometimes when you disconnect the PCAW host service crashes and you can’t get back in until you reset the service or reboot. Since you don’t have another connection to send a reset the best way is to go home and reboot or restart the service. You could buy an X-10 and hook it up to your computer that would allow you to press a sequence of numbers to reboot your system over the phone.


Is there any pill I can take? Also my period lasts a long time-usually more than a week.Sometimes,in the first day and sometimes also in the second day, I find it hard to move because of the pain.

You should start taking an over-the-counter pain reliever (the best for menstrual pain is Aleve), two tablets 3 times daily, 2-3 days BEFORE your period is due to start and continue until it stops. Also, put a heating pad or hot water bottle in your lower abdomen at the first sign of cramps. For pain relief on-the-go, you can use a self-heating, self-sticking pad like "CUREHEAT Menstrual Relief" or "ThermaCare Menstrual" (look for them on the woman's care section of your local pharmacy). Since menstrual pain is often caused by blood clots that are too large to pass through your cervix (the opening of the uterus), you can do what I do myself, and have teached my teen daughter to do: sit on the toilet and strain like you do when trying to hard to urinate; most of the time, this dislodges the clots and offers great relief when they are expelled. Get lots of rest and keep yourself well hydrated. If these measures don't help, go to your gynecologyst, since you could have a condition such as ENDOMETRIOSIS or an hormonal imbalance that might require medical treatment like oral hormonal medications (usually the Pill), stronger analgesics, or even surgical intervention (in extreme instances). Only your doctor can accurrately diagnose and treat these conditions. I hope that my advise has been helpful, and that you get better soon.


I just read a report that new suits will be issued in 2010 and 2020 to the Army soliders. It's Called the Future Combat Systems.

Who do you think is the next to be kicked off? I hope George Hamiltion wins the whole competion, but it'll take a miricle. I think Jerry Rice is the next to go. Also, do you think that P lasted too long for his own good?

I think Tia Carrere will be next.  She's pretty but that's about all she has going for her. Jerry Rice is ok. George Hamilton is suave and debonnaire and seems to only rely on that; his partner has been doing all the dancing work . I think it'll be a toss-up between Stacey, Drew and Lisa. And yes, P lasted WAY too long.  He was too interested in promoting his own agenda than to improve himself with the critiques from the judges.  He was too embarrassed to get ballroom dancing shoes or to take off that idiotic hat, or to wear something other than those stupid over-sized suits. When his partner felt like she had to incorporate the hat into one of their routines, she ended up making herself look stupid in the process. She is a great dancer but I felt sorry that she got stuck with such a moron.


I am looking for specifically the main effects and the major encouragements and examples of both.

Like all popular music, it has had good and bad effects.  I worry that too much of it glorifies casual sex and wealth.  But I also know that there are some talented people creating really innovative music.  And there is plenty of truth-telling and uplifting messages, if you look hard enough.\n\nBut those of you who are old enough to flash back 40 years and remember what people were saying about The Beatles and The Rolling Stones should know this is just the same story with a different soundtrack.

My whole family has a bad sight, its not that we watch alot of tv or what not. I hear it has nothing to do with genes but how can that be possible if we all have glasses (aka bad eye sight)

Some vision problems are genetic or hereditary. Like myopia. Other eye problems are also linked to genetics/heredity like glaucoma. If you have a forst degree relative (parent or sibling) with glaucoma, you are more likely to develope glaucoma than someone who has no family history of it.


I've been watching TVG (horse racing TV on DISH network) and they periodically show their Pick 4 tickets for a particular track.  They turn a $1 Pick 4 ticket into a, let's say for example, a $48 ticket... I assume this all depends on how many horses they involve in their wager.  Well, I've been trying to do the math and I cannot for the life of me figure out how their tickets can equate to $48 (or $44 or $46 or whatever).

23/564/34/6547  \nThis is how you figure out what the above ticket will cost you. Each race is seperated by a backslash. 2 x 3 x 2 x 4=\n$48 dollars. All you do is multiply the number of horses in each race. The folowing ticket will cost you the same.\n2/4579/12/345678.....1 x 4 x 2 x 6=$48

Without it they come out of school confused about thier bodies.  The mind might develop different but the body develops like every other kid.\nI work with adults with special needs and I see the need.\nNot to mention that every child has the right to the same quality of education.

I too work with adults and young adults with special needs. Unfortunately our school systems are only obligated to provide health education, and infromal packets, generally sent home with the child enrolled in the fifth grade. ( This is the age group of when noticable changes start, generally) This packet is to be discussed with the child by the parent and is aslo designed to help parents break the usual bearier of how do I talk to my child about sex.  Unfortunately, many parents do not ever have this discussion with the child, because they feel in their minds that the child is not capable of understanding or comprehending the material. By doing this the parent feels they have done the right thing, when in fact all they have done is raised the curiosity level of the child.  Since the child does not know how to express their feeling and with the fear that the parent will get upset, they suppress their emotions.  As the child reaches adulthood, these feeling and emotion become a literial time bomb.  When this happens the young adult/adult generally ends up in trouble or is hit with large amounts of rejection from the opposite sex. This has been known to scar them for life.\n I wish more people, especially parent of a child with disabilities whould take a beter look at their child and realize that this child, that society has labled special ed, special needs, handicaped, etc would rather look at this child as a child that learns at their own pace and has unique and different learning method and would refuse to let our fast paced school systems determine what is best for any child.     As I mentioned in the beginning I work with Special need students, Unfortunately, all my students reside in jail,charged with crimes they had no real understanding was wrong, because their parents and our schools did not educate them.  My job is to educate them and help them succeed in our community.  I wish more people like yourself would also ask questions.  Thanks for caring.  Sorry my spelling is off, another long day.


I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HIM AS I KNOW HE HIS FROM MY COUNTRY GHANA I WANT TO KNOW WHERE HE ATTENTED IS PRIMARY SCHOOL AND WHEN HE JOIN THE UN  HE IS MY ROLE MEDTOR

It's a safe bet that he was educated at missionary schools\nin Ghana, because, altho Ghana is one of the more advanced countries in Africa, with people who are comparatively well-educated and well-respected, as in all of sub-Saharan Africa, except South Africa, the educational system is principally run and funded by the Christian Churches, because the governments can't or won't do it.  This is, I think, all to the mustard: without the strong influence of Christianity, one wonders whether Africa would be able to keep it's head above water at all.\nANYWAY - Koffie was given his job at the insistance of the U.S.A., pressured by Israel to replace the then, perfectly competent incumbent, Egyptian Boutros-Boutros Ghali, because Mr Ghali, tho a Christian and with impeccable credentials and a fine record of performance as Secretary-General, was nevertheless AN ARAB. \nKoffie had the additional credential, especially in American eyes, of being BLACK and, for the African block, an African.  American policy is to stymie Black-American agitation by installing as many blacks as possible in high positions (Colin Powell, Condi Rice).  It works a treat - they even have a national holiday in honor of Rev Martin Luther King (real name Mike King, never a real Rev, found by the FBI to have had a vibrant extra-marital sex-life including many white women, rather than Koffie's single white wife).\nANYWAY - Koffie, like Powell and Rice, and even King, has been a success. He has a natural and sincere dignity and genuine moral feeling (no doubt in no small part instilled by his Christian education).  He lives next door to Boutros-Boutros Ghali in New York.  Perhaps they collaborate : I hope so.


And if so, why was it executed so badly?  What OUGHT to have happened?

Yes. Cuba at the time posed a significant threat to the United States, since it was closely allied with the USSR diplomatically, and was only about 60 miles from Miami, one of the US' largest cities. A war fought there could have meant the end of the United States.\n\nAlso, the Madison Doctrine technically makes US intervention in Latin American politics allowed, although it is a distasteful piece of legislation. Still, it is essential to American national security.\n\nIt was poorly executed because Castro knew what was happening, and the invasion was poorly planned. The CIA trained exiles were also expecting massive amounts of internal help from Cubans, but they were disappointed. Almost no one showed up at the party.


I am preparing my Physics notes and need  2-3 short paragraphs on each.

A galvanometer requires very little current to make it respond. If significant current passes through it, the galvanometer will be damaged (unless it has protective circuitry inside). Suppose a galvanometer requires only 0.01 amps to deflect full scale. It could be used to measure any current up to that amount just by putting it directly in the circuit like you do an ammeter (although it might have more resistance than you wish it had for an ammeter). \n\nIf we want to use the galvanometer to measure greater currents we have to let most of the current bypass the galvanometer. A shunt resistor has very little resistance, and if we put it in parallel with the galvanometer, most of the current will pass through that shunt resistor and very little will go through the galvanometer. Now if we know that the shunt resistor has only 1/10 the resistance that the galvanometer has, we know that the current splits so that 10 times as much goes through the shunt as goes through the galvanometer. We use this fact, and the reading on the galvanometer, to calculate the total current. (In our example above, if the galvanometer deflects full scale with this shunt in place, we know that 0.01 amps is in the galvanometer and 10 times that is in the shunt. Therefore the total current is the circuit is 0.11 amps.) \n\nTurning a Galvanometer into a voltmeter: \nA voltmeter is put in parallel with the device across which we want to measure the potential difference (“voltage”). Ideally we would like zero current to go through a voltmeter, because if significant current goes through it, putting it in the circuit will change the total current in the circuit and change what we are trying to measure. (I used to tell my class that you might test how much your girlfriend loves you by biting off her ear. In doing this, however, you are taking a risk that you may change what you are trying to measure.) \n\nSo we want very little current going through our voltmeter. Great--a galvanometer requires very little current to operate. So we put a high-resistance resistor in series with the galvanometer. This limits the current that will go through it. The galvanometer and its resistance become our voltmeter and we put them in parallel with the device that we are measuring the voltage across. \n\nImportant definition: \nMy dictionary's first (non-physics) definition of the word “shunt” is: \n“The act or process of turning aside or moving to an alternate course.” \nNotice that this is exactly what the shunt resistance is doing when we make a galvanometer into an ammeter. HOWEVER, in making it a voltmeter, we are not shunting current “to an alternate course” and we should NOT call this resistor an shunt resistor. \n\nThink through this logic and work a few simple problems for yourself.


Is there something about the national character that makes cricket far more popular than in any other country?

As many people know Cricket was originated in England. Before Independence (1947), India was ruled by England(East India Company, UK). At that time, the British people played cricket in India. So, cricket was considered as Royal Game. \n    \n   After Independence, Cricket was one of the things that remained in India, by British Rule. However, India produced several outstanding players (Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Amarnath, Gundappa Viswanath,Sachin Tendulkar, Dravid and this list is really big) in this game and dominated this game from the beginning. Thus, it has become a passion for Indians. The hope for Indians to dominate the world in this field. \n \n  India contributed a lot to this game. Spinners are first introduced by India, that started a new style of bowling in this game. Nowadays, media is also encouraging this game, since it is a good marketing medium for a country with more than 100 million population.

I mean, I'd never speak out against it, because I'm not racist, but is it illegal to speak out against it because racist speech is a hate crime?

Well, there is no such thing as "reverse discrimination."  Discrimination is discrimination, no matter which race is doing it to which.  If you are personally upset because you feel as though someone is discriminating against you solely based on the color of your skin -- whatever that color might be -- you should speak out against it.  It is not considered a hate crime as long as the manner in which you are speaking out is peaceful, free of hate speech and/or actions, and is geared toward working out a solution instead of propogating a long-standing opposition.
