Colin Powell straight out admitted "serious" mistakes were made in Iraq.  Newt Gingrich flat out said that we should never have tried to occupy Iraq.  These are diehard Republicans, people, not the bleeding left.  \n\nI know it's not the place of a soldier to question orders, but isn't anyone in the miltary saying, "Hey, what the heck are we doing over here risking our lives while politicians manipulate the public with the terrorist fear card, and Big Oil and Halliburton execs get rich?"\n\nIsn't there some point where you call it like it is?

like it or not, soldiers are tools, not unlike the M16s they carry. it is their job to be used. listen little-mind, how long are you gonna hide behind terrorist fear and big oil BS? Remember 9/11 jerk0ff? 3000 innocents dead? It is more than big oil in Iraq... Prisons were emptied, we stopped the filling of mass graves, which already contained 300,000 corpses.  The soldiers have established a military and intelligence base on the borders of two terrorist states – Syria and Iran. It has diverted the terrorist enemy to a battlefield thousands of miles AWAY from Washington and New York and other American cities which have consequently not suffered another terrorist attack since September 2001. people like you would love another attack here wouldn't you? oh, it would serve bush and those that voted for him their just deserts! screw you.\nsoldiers have ideals that guide them. they have beautiful fearlessness and strength.  "It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived." --Gen. George S Patton


Bush go back to Crawford and clear brush while dead eye Dick Cheney makes all the important decisions. Not much of a choice is it.

Food poisoning in the White House and the Cleaners take over


I have heard it in movies and games. I know it has to do with the post office, but what.

It means to get angry, to the point of violence, but I think that it carries a current of completely irrational violent behavior.\n\nPostal workers are the archetypal pissed-off employees. That reputation began on or about August 20, 1986, when a disgruntled postal worker opened fire on his co-workers, killing 13 of them. Over the next seven years, there were nine more such incidents involving postal workers, and a total of 34 people were killed. These gruesome statistics are the source not only of postal workers' violent reputation, but also of the phrase go postal that is still used today with dark humor. \n\nThe good news is that the workplace homicide rate is going down. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 1,080 workplace murders in the U.S. in 1994, but "only" 677 in 2000 (an increase from the 651 recorded in 1999). This mirrors the overall rate of workplace violence. Although there were over 802,000 incidents reported in 2000 (according the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics), that figure is down from the 1,064,000 incidents reported in 1996.

I was on my grandfather's farm in Alabama and there was a storm some ways away from us.  As we watched, we saw bolt after bolt of blood red lightning.  I was wondering if anyone else has ever seen this.  I am also wondering where you saw it and if you know what causes the lightning to be red.

Yes. Anywhere that there is lightning there is a possibillity for red lighting. Red lightning is caused by, lighting traveling from cloud to cloud. The clouds then distort the color.


what if a company is bought out, can the purchasing company replace the initial bad debt report with a new report date to extend the 7 years?

Credit reports are reported for 7 years, beginning on the day of default.  They can not be restarted, but many collection agencies will try.  They simply change the date on the report.  Many consumers don't even realize it.  \n\nGotta keep your records.

I like science a lot so I am interested in aliens a lot.

There is alien  life.

There   MUST Be intelligent life out there.. There's none here!!!


I have been type 1 for 29yrs (diagnosed at age 10), and have been on several different insulin types over that time.  I'm in good control etc. (don't want any advice on how to look after myself) but hypoglycemic symptoms have changed dramatically over the years in how they have manifested themselves.  Anyone else with similar experience?

When a type 1 diabetic becomes hypoglycemic, the body produces several hormones that can not be properly processed (one such is adrenaline).  As a result, there are some classic symptoms that many type 1 diabetics  tend to exhibit.\n\nAs time goes on the natural aging process changes some of the responses.  However, The person can become asymptomatic to hypoglycemia.  This is usually caused by a high frequency, severity and duration of hypoglycemic events.  \n\nIssues to review:  How many times do you test you BG?  Are you on Humilog and NPH?  A contributing factor may be that your (ISF) insulin sensitivity factor has changed.\nHas your insulin to carb ratio changed?  has your physical condition/fitness improved or gotten worse?\n\ngood luck


my fiance is trying to get custody of his daughter and i have three boys of my own and i have a 1280 square foot 3 bedroom house.  would this stop him from obtaining custody?

absolutely not.  Custody is determined by whomever can take the best, most proper care of a child, and the child's best interest.  Someone living in a mansion who is dealing drugs could lose custody to someone living in an efficiency apartment.  He will need to prove that his daughter is currently in an unsafe enviornment and that he can provide a better one.  Not always easy to do, as the courts generally favor the birth mother.


Man that was a hard few years to get through.

is it too late to file federal income tax return if your intited to a refund

Well you should have filed an extension.  You should file that RIGHT AWAY to buy yourself a couple of months. If you are owed money by the Government, you don't have to pay penalties, but you might if you don't hurry and get the extension in!\n\nAnd please ignore the "yup" comment up their, you have A LOT of rights to get your money, but you should try to follow the basic rules...ask H & R block or file your own extension form...just go to IRS.GOV and download one as a pdf, fill it out and tell them you need a little extra time to gather receipts in the "reasons" section (don't say you're late) and then hurry and get your return in.\n\n_____\n\nWow, there are ALOT of misleading answers you have here.  YOU CAN GET YOUR MONEY, looks like you've got more than just the first guy to ignore, and a lot of kids who don't know what they're talking about like the girl who said April 17th?  Its been April 15th for the last 27 years I've filed a return!\n\nIf you are owed, you are in charge, but they will penalize you for not getting your return in on time...not much at this point....so don't worry.

Starters you can get some great used golf balls at www.mygolfballstore.com they look like new without the high price.  \n\nYou have golf balls for distance - The golf balls the promote distance don't spin as much as the golf balls with feel.  The distance ball will fly straighter but it want stop very well.  The ball is durable.  All you can do is try to hit the ball straight, you can control it like the balls that spin.  \n\nThe balls with feel - Pro -VI types - Since they spin more if you hook or slice you will end up further off course.  They don't go as far.  They will hold on the greens and you can move the ball around better than the distance ball.  Better golfers seem to like this ball.  The better feel and spin helps with chipping and putting.  The distance ball bounces off the club and takes off.

i did the permanent on my hair when i was 14 and i'm 18 and my hair is all frizzy and i don't like it, it gets all sponged up i can never wear it loose because i look like a balck dude with an afro

LoL!!!\nWow...that sounds terrifying. This can be solves easily without spending a ton of money.\nSince you mentioned your hair is so thick, you SHOULD go your local salon and have them use "thinning shears" to thin your hair out some. They'll know how to do it right. I wouldn't recommend trying this at home. Second, a serum (as mentioned above) will help work out that frizziness! Such as John Frieda Frizz Ease, or Miracle Shine (Im partial to Miracle Shine) These can be found at any department store like Wal-Mart.\nShampoo AND Conditioner - a good one to try is Got2B "Control Freak" Helps with anti-frizz. Also can be found at places like Wal-Mart.\nYou could also get a CERAMIC flat iron. These work great for me! I LOOOVE my flat iron! I got one made by Revlon that's ceramic and heats up in about 2 minutes. (About $20, but works really nice) Make sure before using it that you use a serum to protect against heat damage!\nAlso: a tip to try...When blow drying your hair, try finishing for a couple minutes on thge "cool" setting!

I think it's easy to tell that there are some genes exclusive to Europeans.  I always wondered why.  Some of these would be blue eyes, green, eyes, etc.  Also blonde hair, red hair, etc.  I guess the same thing goes for the broad African nose and the Asian eye shape?  Although those seem sort of difference because it's shape and size, rather than color.  Does anyone have any kind of explanation of why some of these genes are exclusive to people from certain parts of the world?\n\nThanks,\nG-Rard B

im 4"9 and i started my period like two years ago. im not really growing that much maybe like 1 cm this past six months. is it possible that im done with puberty?

Puberty normally occurs in a series of five stages (Tanner stages) that typically begin within the ages of 8 and 13 for girls and 9 and 14 for boys. Puberty is consider early (precocious) if it occurs before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys. And puberty is considered late or delayed if it has not begun prior to the age of 13 years for girls and 14 years for boys. Recent studies have shown that puberty is occurring at an increasingly earlier age in children though.\nSo the answer to your question will be no.


Someone asks a question that they already know the answer to?\n\nwhoever answers this question in way that perfectly reflects my own narrow and unchangeable opinions gets 10 points! \n\n\nwhat do you think of that?

Or is there a scientific explination for it.

This situation is the natural result of one body orbiting another.  It is called tidal locking.  All of the moons of Jupiter are tidally locked to it, and Pluto and it's moon, Charon are tidally locked to each other for example.\n\nWhat happens is that an object that is rotating faster than it is orbiting feels a torque from the tidal force (differential gravity) exerted across it by the object it is orbiting.  Over time this will cause the rotation period to slow down to match the orbital period.  The time this takes depends on the distance between the two bodies and the reletive masses, as well as a few other factors.


i have a very  good business plan, am working on tried and tested methods, but  end up nowhere

Success in business is tough, that's for sure.  Persistence counts, definately, but so does your ability to provide something to others (product or service) that is better than anyone else's out there.  Going above and beyond for others is one of the best ways to stay alive in business.  Always try to make others look good, then they will always want to do business with you.


Around the world it's known as football, but here in the U.S.(and Canada) it's known as soccer? How did they come up with that? and why?

Brits actually invented the word. "Soccer," when it first appeared in the 1890s, was spelled "socca," which was short for "association" or "association football," meaning football played according to the rules laid down by the British Football Association. It was also called "socker" until the current form "soccer" appeared around 1895.


Well, is quite an interesting question. His or her name should be Özgur(which means "freedom" in turkish and is used by both man and woman) Maybe this is a good reason for he/she to be Tiki :D


I will choose you as best answer if you give me reasonable thoughts and remarks on how YOU know its true!

Jesus Christ is the only and true way to God. Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation for us humans and the only way to have a relationship with God. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. All of the other religions you are trying to work your way to God and doing all sorts of meaningless things to please their gods. However, salvation from Jesus Christ is a free gift since He died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. All we have to do is ask Him into our lives, make Him Lord and Savior of our lives and we are saved.


can anyone explain nambla to me? I mean i have done research but it makes no since. men wanting to sleep with other little boys thats crazy! (In case you didnt know nambla stands for north american man boy love assosiation)

A bunch of sick perverts who want to molest kids and think that it should be legal for men to love boys.  What they seemingly don't realize is that the love they want is really the freedom to molest kids, since their "love" is one sided.  I doubt those boys want molested.


Iam 14 years old and I have never played a sport outside of P.E. Class..I really want to start to play a sport. Iam good at catching, kinda good at running, and pretty good at kicking a soccar ball (not so good at the game)...What Sport do u recommend that I start to take?

You could try track, cross country, tennis or softball.


has anyone experienced this and how did it happen?

If you're asking about a spirit visit, I don't believe in such things.  Still, if that IS what you're asking, why not go to a spiritualist (tacky tarot card shopowner) and ask for a seance?


i am trying to move and i must have this letter can you tell me how to get it.

I know that Oedipus complex is the Sigmund Freud complex that boys have an unconscious desire for the exclusive love of his mother.  Does anyone know what is the oppisite of that?  ....where the mother has a desire for the son, and where you can research it?

I'm not sure...this came up in my english class recently believe it or not.  I don't think the mother's desire for a son is classified anywhere (maybe).  But what I do think has been classified is the daughter's desire for the father. Yeah my teacher wrote this on the board, and said "I bet you never thought you'd hear this in school." Its called the Penis Complex or Penis Desire. lmao seriously...that came up in a 12th grade english class haha.\n\nOh yeah the elektra complex. I forgot. sorry.


If the pain is at the base of the big toe, it would not be plantar fascitis.  That pain would be at the front part of your heel.  Yes, you can strain the tendon that flexes the toe down.  You would feel the pain at the base of the big toe.  \n\nAlso, if you hyperextended the toe (bent it backwards) you would have pain at the base of the big toe but this would be due to a strain of the ligaments of the joint itself, not the tendon.  \n\nAlso, overuse (walking or running too much, especially if you have some extra weight) can cause pain at the base of the big toe due to inflammation at the sesamoid bones.  The sesamoid bones of the big toe are small (pea-sized) bones under the big toe on the inside and outside of the toe.  These bones act as pivot points for a couple of muscles (he abductor hallucis and the adductor hallucis).  Tendonitis in these is common with overuse.  \n\nTo treat this you need to decrease the inflammation.  You can do this with over the counter NSAIDs.  Better yet, find an herb called boswelia.  It will decrease the inflammation naturally and will not cause problems that NSAIDs can.  Also, you need to walk with good supportive shoes (athletic shoes) and, if you have a little extra weight, lose a few pounds.  Good luck!


It's for homework..i cant find it...i need it to solve a problem

Calculate the total energy of the system before and after and make an energy balance.\n\nFor example, lets say you have an inelastic collision between two cars of equal mass m:\n\nInitial State:\nCar 1 moves at v1 to the right\nCar 2 moves at v2 to the left\n\nAssume v1 > v2\nThey hit and stick together completely.  Use conservation of momentum to find the total resultant velocity:\n\np1 + p2 = ptotal (p is the momentum of car 1 and car 2 respectively)\n\nm*v1 - m*v2 = (m+m)*vf\n\nvf is the final velocity of the clump\nthe minus sign is because I am choosing the direction "right" as positive (momentum is a vector)\n\nvf = (v1-v2)/2\n\nNow do an energy balance:\n\nEbeforecollision = 1/2*m*(v1^2) + 1/2*m*(v2)^2\nEaftercollision = 1/2*(m+m)*(vf)^2 + Efrictionlosses\n\nEbefore = Eafter (this is conservation of energy, and it is true as long as you account for all forms of energy...it wont be true if you forget about the frictional losses in Eafter)\n\nNow solve for Efrictionlosses\n\nTo get the total fractional energy loss, take the ratio Efrictionlosses/Ebefore


1. We really don't know what he looked like.\n\n2. He was a wine guzzler...is that too different from a beer guzzler?\n\nIt is his message to humanity to do unto others as you would have them do unto you that matters.\n\nSome people think books like the Divinci Code or any of the more controversial books about the history behind the story of Christ as terrible scarey things.\n\nI think if you can put all the hero worship myths and legends aside...and still have faith in that core message...you will "be saved".\n\nWhat "being Saved" will be is another mystery for another discussion!\n\nHappy Easter!


That would have to be a hell of a job.  Sitting there all day stamping out the body of Christ, from a ball of flour and water.\n\nI mean, really... that sort of puts things in perspective a bit, doesn't it?  Some mimimum-wage worker mixing up the same ingredients as Wonder Bread, down the street, baking it in an industrial oven, then stamping out the shape on a conveyer belt...\n\nNot that I ever put any stock in Communion anyway, but that sort of takes the mysticism out of the Jesus crackers, doesn't it?\n\nSomehow I can also picture those guys in the breakroom.  You know they forget their lunch sometimes, and instead just subsist on a bowl of Jesus crackers, with some lefover salsa in the fridge.\n\nIt's sad, because you know it's true...

AAHAHA.  You're terrific! :)\n\nI remember when I was "practicing" for my first communion, they passed out little sandwich bags full of christ crackers so we could practice our cannibalism at home with mom and dad...I thought they were yummy, so before I left the church I swiped 3 more bags to take home with me. I just may have made baby jesus cry.

i think this one is funny:\nA little Mexican boy goes into the kitchen where his mom is\n baking. He puts his hand in the flour and wipes it all over\n his face. "Mom, look, I'm a white boy."\n\n His mom slaps him in the face and says "Go show your\n father".\n\n He goes to his dad in the living room and says "Look dad,\n I'm a white boy."\n\n His dad slaps him hard in the face and says "Go show your\n grandmother."\n\n The boy goes in his grandmothers room and says "Mira,\n abuelita, I'm a white boy " His grandmother slaps him in\n the face and sends him back to his mother.\n\n His mother says "See. Did you learn anything from that?"\n\n To which the boy replies, "Sure did. I have only been white\n for five minutes and I already hate you Mexicans."

They are closing soon many bases in Europe and also in Germany too. Do you think that's OK? What about the bases in US and they have enough place for the soldiers and families coming back in thousands?

The U.S government started a down-sizing move several years back. As a result, there are about 30% less actvie duty personnel now, and that means that there are that many less people to utilize the installations. With less people, there is less need for bases everywhere, including the U.S. There have been lots of base-closings all over the world, but there are still enough to handle those who remain on active duty, either married or single.


The original riddle goes like this.\n\nSuppose you have 12 coins, in which all of them are the same and 1 is fake. The fake coin can weigh more or less than the other coins but never the same, while all the other coins weigh the same.  You have a simple balance type scale that only shows which side is heavier/lighter.  You are allowed to use this scale only 3 times.  After 3 scale usages, you must have a hypothetical solution to find the fake coin and be able to firmly state whether the coin is heavy or lighter than the others.  This riddle can be solved with some effort.\n\nOther variations:  With one scale usage you can find a fake coin in a group of 3 being that you originally knew it was either heavy or light.\n\nSimilarly you can do the same with two scale usages and 8 coins.\n\nMy question:\nIf you had 4 or even 5 scale usages, you would be able to find a fake coin in the midst of how many real coins?  How would those numbers differ if you knew the coin was originally heavy?

IF we know the coin is heavy and we have 5 scale usage , we can find out the heavy coin amist 243 coins.\n\nFor the first question, with 3 scale usage and when u dont know is the coin is heavier or liter\nNumber the coins A-L. \n\nBegin by weighing four against four. If they balance, then weigh any of the remaining three against any three of the good coins. \n\nIf they balance then the odd one is the remaining coin and can be \nidentified (whether it's lighter or heavier) in the final weighing. \n\nIf three against three do not balance, take the three containing the odd \ncoin and weigh any one against another. \n\nThus: \n\nIf the first weighing of four against four does not produce a balance, then \nthe second weighing involves three against three with the coins switched \nbetween the two pans and a good coin introduced. \n\nSo: \n\nIf A+B+C+D > E+F+G+H \n\nWe try A+B+E against C+F+J \n\nIf A+B+E + C+F+J then either D is heavier or G or H is lighter, so weigh \nG against H. \n\nIf A+B+E > C+F+J then either F is lighter or A or B is heavier, so we \nweigh A against B. \n\nIf A+B+E < C+F+J then either E is lighter or C is heavier, so weigh \neither against a good coin, eg. K against E. \n\nAn alternative second weighing is A+B+E against C+D+F, which follows \nsimilar lines to the above.


i want to know their mail adress to contact with them.

You are in luck... Iran is the shemale capital of the arab world.  Try searching on urnotalone.com or a similar site and I'm sure you'll find someone.


i think Javy Lopez, Brian Roberts (from the orioles), and Grady Sizemore (from the indians)

By far its Jim Thome... when he is healthy watch out he will be the AL MVP... but Travis Hafner is not so far


My mom tried to commit suicide when I was 8- and I found her. She had slit her wrists.

Death of my mother when I was 10.  She was killed by a drunk driver.


this question is appilicable only in a office/school. How should i answer


There are 2 fans (1 on the cooler, 1 on the chipset). The one on the cooler was silenced by ASUS using a simple application (from over 4000rpm to around 1000). WHAT ABOUT THE CHIPSET FAN? It turns around at over 6500rpm. I've read on the net that this is a common problem with this board. The CPU (AMD64 3200+) runs perfectly with it's fan speed at 1000rpm. I'm sure the nVIDIA nFORCE4 won't mind if I cut some thousands rpm. BUT HOW?\n\nThank you very much! Fight for these 10 points!

This fan is a big problem alright. I got the A8NE-Premium just so I wouldn't have to deal with that fan (has a heatpipe instead). I heard ASUS has been good about replacing the fan with a supposedly improved model. Call and tell them that it failed and you would like another one. If that still is annoying there are some third party cooling solutions...or sell your A8NE on ebay and get the sli-premium! It is a pricey one however.\nThis forum discussed the problem in some detail:\nhttp://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=29&threadid=1800554


trying to find were to regiter a chid for educational home schooling in orlando florida

I was home schooled, as were several of my brothers and we all agree that it's more detrimental than beneficial most of the time.  It took me quite a while to overcome the deficiencies I had in social education.  My interaction with others was so limited and on such a strange level that I was socially backward for most of the time I was in the public education system after my time at home.  I also feel that my educational experience suffered.  I'm not saying don't, but I do suggest that you think carefully about the reasons you're doing it.


I am planning a day at the spa for my girlfriends. The spa is kinda expensive to get in (like 50 bucks) and then there are fees for the spa services and its about an hour out from L.A. I think its good to give people more than a month to secure baby sitting, money and to clear their schedules. What do you think?

yes, the more time people have the easier it will be for them to plan this.\nbtw, spa sounds awesome, HAVE FUN!


Jerry West and Allen Iverson\n           vs\nMicheal Jordan and Dirk Nowitski

Will they play this time? I mean all aged up and wrinkled? Jordan and Dirk will win if it that so. AI maybe be fast and all but his jumpshots are not really reliable unlikke Dirk's and MJ's...Jerry West is too old now and can't even play, I think. If they'll play in their prime, once again jordan and nowitzki will win because jordan will dunk over ai and west at the same time. If MJ can't slash to the basket, he'll kick it out to Dirk for the 3. im sure the results will be the same.


I am getting all negative thoughts..I argued with everyone at home.everyone is feeling bad ..I don't know what's wrong with me..

found out i can get a polish citizenship wondering if its worth it

You could get a job in the U.S. and anywhere in the E.U.  That would be worth it to me, but I speak a European language besides English and love Europe.


have found o couple but one cost allot and another is almost 900 a semester wondering if anyone knows about somewhere cheaper

Go to your local technical school, and ask about grants. In Wisconsin, the government pays for some of it.


I smoked for 5 years, and quit cold-turkey.  Use someone you care about as your motivation.


You know what I'm talking about. We're all guilty. I refuse to lie or twist truth anymore and I'm wondering how it's going to work out. Single at 28 sucks so I want to get ir right this time. I wanted to marry a model from childhood.. I did and it almost killed me. Never again, I need the real stuff.

Hey, the real stuff is the only thing that works for healthy relationships.  It's hard, because some people may not be interested in the real you.  But that's when you have to say, hey, her loss.  You're great as is, and if someone doesn't like you, that's their problem.  But I'm someone who hates first dates for that reason.  Guys get all schmoozy and schmaltzy, and I know it's an act.  I want to know who this guy will be in six months after the honeymoon/courting phase is over.  So when a guy just lets his true self fly, it's relieving and more enjoyable to a girl like me.  The good girls will pick up on this and will be interested.  It won't happen overnight, but it will happen.  Just trust your true self and have faith.  Good luck!


According to your picture, it's because you look like the devil...............knock it off.


If I am playing as a manager, in manager mode, of a South American team, preferably a Brazilian team, besides the league championship and league cup, can I participate in any other compititions?

No I spent about 3 years in the manager mode in Brazil, there are no other competitions. My sugestion is to go to a sucky second or third division team in europ. For example I gor a 1 1/2 Star team from second division Spain. Once I won the championship in second division I got promoted to first division. I am in my 10th year  and I have turned that team into a 5 star team. The secreat is that the players in second division are not expensive, so you will a be making profit out of every game, and once you save enough money you'll be able to buy really good players, or staff upgrades.


i am currently doing chemical engineering at imperial college.. it is great but i signed up for the year abroad. i was thinking shld i go abroad to USA or Australia or singapore for a year that is to another unierstiy and study there for a year or shld i do a year in industry or wld both weight the same. i chose a year abroad cos i thought it wld expose me to other methods of teaching. i need ur opinions please.

Studying abroad is always a good thing, it gives you a wider background, apart from looking excellent on your resume.  I would say USA for chemical engineering, see the link below for the best USA Universities.\n\nI would definitely add, to be aware that since the 9/11 aftermath, there have been more background investigations on Student Visa--just be prepared to showcase your entire history when applying for a STUDENT VISA to the USA.\n\nGood Luck and Prosper...;*!*;...


what are the benefits of each ...employee or independent contractor.

Employee- the chiropractor pays in social security for you, provides you with an area to work and insures the building too.\nIndependent contractor- you are responsible for paying in your taxes, you have to set up and take down your stuff all the time, You have to provide your own insurance AND possibly have to pay rent to the chiropractor letting you use his/her space!


i know its the oldest trick in the book to making  more money\nbut just want to hear your side for help

***********************************************************\nHopefully you currently own your home now. You can use the equity in your current home as a downpayment on a 2nd home. Use the 1st as a rental. This may mean refinancing your 1st home or getting a 2nd mortgage on it.\n\nI suggest you take your first $15 bucks you can spare, go out and buy the book "The Automatic Millionaire Homeowner" by David Bach. This book alone is more than enough to get you started, even if you don't think you can. You can also check out his website at www.finishrich.com/homeowner\n\nAnd by the way, don't let others tell you it can't be done or they know someone who tried, etc. They have good intentions. They are trying to protect you from disappointment (a feeling they've experienced). So thank them for being caring enough with thier warnings. But explain that what you can really use is thier encouragement and support and that any advice they have that might help you in your efforts would be much appreciated.\n\nDon't give up. And congratulations on your thinking big.\n\nHope this helps. Good luck.\n\n***********************************************************


I have just seen the film, An American Haunting, it was facinating, i have also looked on the web about what happened to the Bell Family, does anyone really know why the haunting happened??

The Bell Witch Haunting is a very well documented haunting case that took place in the 1800's. The story goes that for some reason the witch(sometimes called Kate) hated the head of the family John Bell. She would torture the family with loud noises and even talking and yelling at some points. She pulled the covers off of the children at night and basically tormented that family until John Bell died. The thing that makes this story so believable is that fact that there is so much documented evidence of the story. Not to mention that the whole town knew of the haunting. The witch made herself known to everyone. She would tell secrets of the townspeople and was even known to show up at church and start quoting scripture. She was even reported to have taken credit for killing John Bell and laughed at his funeral. There have been reports that maybe the witch was mad a John Bell because of a dispute over land. The best website for this case is www.bellwitch.org. The man that runs this site, Pat Fitzugh is the leading expert on this case. He is even a distant relative to the family. Check that site out. It will tell you everything you need to know!


One would speak to the admininstrator of the firewalled site, and ask permission. Otherwise, one might be in deep doodoo...

This is a (mostly) serious question. I'm really curious. If I owned a boat, could I claim "Captain" as my official title?

Don't be a piker...buy two (even if the second is a rowboat), so you can have a fleet and be called "Admiral."


I spoke with a very wise christian friend of mine about the topic of marijuana and drug use. I supported the fact that god made the plants for us to use, as said in the bible, for the benefit of man. He, being better versed in christianity said that jesus taught, and therefore gods will was that the people should uphold the law of the land, and abide by them. That was gods will. I asked him if he supported prayer in school, he thought that is should be included and that he and his children had practiced such their entire lives. To this I asked then should not he be jailed? If the law of the land strictly imparts a seperation of Church and State, a law that has much older provenance, and is a founding principal of the same state that has made narcotics such as marijuana illegal, is he not in violation of the law and his own religious tenants? How do christians infer this backward line of thinking? Can anyone help me to understand?

Yes, they are pushing a dangerous and addictive (to some) idea that is totally fallacious and without any evidence at all, they should not be allowed to foist their abusive indoctrination onto children, let them believe what they will inthe privacy of their own homes...this is freedom of religion but please do not deprive young children of their right to freedom from indoctrination.


I want to program a receipt printer that will be used in our store.  It comes cheaper compared to buying a POS system.  \n\nI still haven't bought a receipt printer.  I think receipt printers come with their own software to run it.  So my main problem is their programmability -- can i use vb or java to control the printer?

You probably can use java to control the printer, but i think you would get better control from C/C++.  I guess it all really depends on what printer you get and what API's the manufacturer makes available to you.


Does anyone really believe  Earth is only 6 to 10 thousand years old, as some Christians would have us believe?

scientists estimate the age of the earth to be around 4.5 billion years old.....and there are pyramids that have been built an estimated to be 6 to 10 thousand years old....some teeth were just discovered in a buriel site with perfectly drilled holes in them and they were over 6 thousand years old....so no....I don't believe it


I am lost within reason, I have no life of my own,they're living life for me, Space is what i need! Im totally lost within them, like the sun on a rainy day! what does it take to realize i need to think on my own !is it that hard for me! wont they let me be !let me live my life instead of living it for me!

Thats a poem?whatever happened to "roses are red..."?


Been dating off and on for 10 months...problem before was I always wanted more and he resisted...now we are on again and part of me wants him to define things but another part tells me I should just go with the flow and see what happens.  I don't want to put pressure because that's not good...we've only gone a couple weeks at a time before reconnecting and there have been no other people invovled.

If this has been the same guy for 10 months I would say that it's time. In my opinion you have every right and he should expect you to want to clarify your relationship.\nI can understand, to use your term, "going with the flow" but you have gone with the flow and have some questions you want answered.\nDoes he just want to play around; a couple weeks here and a couple weeks there, or dies he have future plans?

Someone asked a question on What is your Mormon secret name?  and one of the answers was:\nThe final step of the Initiatory entrance into the LDS ritual is the receiving of a Sacred Name, one that only the initiate and God will know. It is the name by which God will call forth the temple Mormon on the "Morning of the First Resurrection." In the Mormon ceremony, the husband is also told his wife's secret name so that he (not God) can raise her from the grave. She is forbidden to know his "New Name" and he forbidden to tell her. \nSource(s):\nhttp://www.saintsalive.com/mormonism/smi... \n\nThis goes along with the question about from what Bible do we judge the LDS.  From what Bible do the LDS take this kind of doctrine.  LDS please explain this one to me.

Hey Dist because you say that site is not credible is not? I say that the one you talk about is being payed by the mormon church. \n\nYes the mormons get new names when they go to the temple to get sealed this way: some volunteer tell the girls her name (they use the same name the same day) the they tell the guys the name, then the girls trough a veil tells her husband the new name so he can call her to resurrect if she was worthy....I witness it


We are a company incorporated in Israel and need a bank accoount in the US. the company have no profits or  revenue in the US we just need a US account to pay providers.

You can open up a DBA (doing business as) account using any person's information and the company name.  That way you can deposit and write checks with the company name on it.  You'll only need proof of business.  International business liscenses would suffice.


I have a habit of trying to reason things too much and I would like to find out a trick to help me be a little more open.  Thanks.

Sometimes you just have to agree with them and go on. Even if you are right. You don't want an arguement or fight. So\ntry to understand her point of view. Reasoning too much makes people think you are being self-righteous. That's not\na good thing. you just have to let your guard down and swallow some pride. Because no one is always right.


My daughter has been diagnosed with several food and environmental allergies, I am in the process of getting her referred (the good ole HMO) to an allergist.  I would like to know when the allergy is the worst and what to expect. I appreciate any input.  Thanks!

I guess you mean oak tree.  I am allergic to them.  My allergies are worse in the spring, because the trees are budding and pollen is flying around.  I take allergy shots and they really seem to help.  I am allergic to most trees, grass, weeds, mold, and animals.  My allergies are bad in the spring and fall.  Good luck, allergies can really  make you miserable.


my husband is 24 and we have a 3 year old and he is always with his friends do i have a right to feel hurt? his friends are always at our house and spend the night a least twice a week and if they aren't at my house he is out drinking with them. How do i make him see that he is hurts us?

try explaining to him your problem.he should behave like a responsible father first.he can't just fool around with you and your kid.\nif his friends come home to stay , just don't allow them.\nmake a big fuss about it everyday.also don't permit him to stay out make sure he returns home.\nwatch whatever he's up to.find out what exactly he's doing with his friends.explain to him he is a father of a 3yr old kid and tell him first to behave like a dad.


I work for a corporation as part of an accounting group. And as a team, we all (there's five of us), get to be a part of the candidates second interview. And we all have to ask questions as well as the treasurer and accouting manager. Anyone out there have any ideas for good questions?

how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll?\n\nactually, you can ask this:\n\ndo you have a selfish wife? does she expect you to call her often from work? or perhaps even take days off to help her at home or with the kids. what percentage of your time here at work will you actually be working?

Take into account that\n1) if legalized, Government would know WITH CERTAINTY who the producers adn distributors are, and could put AND ENFORCE rules on them.\n2) if legalized, there would be no incentive for bribing. (perhaps the legislators receive a lot of those bribes and thus don't want to spoil their personal income by legalizing the drug's)\n3) Safety concerns can be tackled by forbidding to drive under the influence, just like alcohol.\n4) Is easier to control distribution to minors if overall distribution is legal, because you can establish strong punishment for the producers whose products are sold to minors (like FDA de-authorization)\n5) FDA would supervise the content of the drugs and dismiss those with harmfull effects.

DRUGS SHOULD BE LEGALIZED\n\n1) Govt. would make more money than they do off ciggs\n2) If it is legal not so many people will do it (for all u anti-drug ppl)\n3)It will open room in our jail cells for real criminals instead of users\n4)If it is legal you can set rules and regs. on them along w/ no driving if you are on them (which doesnt always work but it does sometimes, and if it doesnt work, it wont work while they are illegal either)\n5) The drugs are getting done either way, people are doing the same things while they are on the drugs either way, and the money being made off them is going to ppl to make more drugs OR TO TERRORISTS! so by legalizing these drugs the money will go to the U.S and we know that the terrorist groups are getting no money and we can put the money towards something usefull.\n6) NO ADVANTAGES TO HAVING DRUGS STAY ILLEGAL...LEGALIZE THEM!!!

I'm curious about Jehovah's Witnesses, for I have no idea about their religion whatsoever.

IF YOU KNEW NOTHING ABOUT JW'S... AFTER YOU READ THIS, YOU WILL NEVER AGAIN BE ABLE TO SAY THAT.\n\n\n\nWho Are They?\n \nThey are\ninterested in you \nIT IS the desire of Jehovah's Witnesses that you become better acquainted with them. You may have met them as neighbors and fellow employees or in other daily affairs of life. You may have seen them on the street, offering their magazines to passersby. Or you may have spoken briefly with them at your door.\n\nActually, Jehovah's Witnesses are interested in you and your welfare. They want to be your friends and to tell you more about themselves, their beliefs, their organization, and how they feel about people and the world in which all of us live. To accomplish this, they have prepared this brochure for you.\n\nIn most ways Jehovah's Witnesses are like everyone else. They have normal problems—economic, physical, emotional. They make mistakes at times, for they are not perfect, inspired, or infallible. But they try to learn from their experiences and diligently study the Bible to make needed corrections. They have made a dedication to God to do his will, and they apply themselves to fulfill this dedication. In all their activities they seek guidance from God's Word and his holy spirit.\n\nThey are dedicated to\nGod to do his willIt is of vital importance to them that their beliefs be based on the Bible and not on mere human speculations or religious creeds. They feel as did the apostle Paul when he expressed himself under inspiration: "Let God be found true, though every man be found a liar." (Romans 3:4, New World Translation*) When it comes to teachings offered as Biblical truth, the Witnesses strongly endorse the course followed by the Beroeans when they heard the apostle Paul preach: "They received the word with the greatest eagerness of mind, carefully examining the Scriptures daily as to whether these things were so." (Acts 17:11) Jehovah's Witnesses believe that all religious teachings should be subjected to this test of agreement with the inspired Scriptures, whether the teaching is offered by them or by someone else. They invite you—urge you—to do this in your discussions with them.\n\nThey believe the\nBible is God's WordFrom this it is apparent that Jehovah's Witnesses believe in the Bible as the Word of God. They consider its 66 books to be inspired and historically accurate. What is commonly called the New Testament they refer to as the Christian Greek Scriptures, and the Old Testament they call the Hebrew Scriptures. They rely on both of these, the Greek and the Hebrew Scriptures, and take them literally except where the expressions or settings obviously indicate that they are figurative or symbolic. They understand that many of the prophecies of the Bible have been fulfilled, others are in the course of fulfillment, and still others await fulfillment.\n\nTHEIR NAME\nJehovah's Witnesses? Yes, that is the way they refer to themselves. It is a descriptive name, indicating that they bear witness concerning Jehovah, his Godship, and his purposes. "God," "Lord," and "Creator"—like "President," "King," and "General"—are titles and may be applied to several different personages. But "Jehovah" is a personal name and refers to the almighty God and Creator of the universe. This is shown at Psalm 83:18, according to the King James version of the Bible: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."\n\nGod's personal name in ancient Hebrew \n \nThe name Jehovah (or Yahweh, as the Roman Catholic Jerusalem Bible and some scholars prefer) appears almost 7,000 times in the original Hebrew Scriptures. Most Bibles do not show it as such but substitute "God" or "Lord" for it. However, even in these Bibles, a person can usually tell where the original Hebrew text uses

I know that saturday is the sabbath, what else do you teach?

SDA's are "suppose" to teach the keeping of the whole moral law including the seventh day Sabbath which is Saturday, righteousness by faith, perfection in Christ, the refraining from all harmful foods and practices (including all animal products which are diseased), the second coming of Christ, that the Anti-Christ is the Papacy, the state of the dead, the Godhead,the Spirit of Prophecy through EG White. You find that the true SDA's will teach this. There have been some in the mainstream churches who no longer teach these truths which were taught when God gave them to the pioneers of this faith in the 1800's.


I am a student of B.Tech 2nd yr from IIIT in India.Please help me and suggest some rockin project for a science exhibition tht i'm goin to participate.The project shd be based on computer science or IT and suitable for my level?

The best project would be one that interacts with the people. Maybe a USB camera connected to a computer and voice output. The camera might read the number of fingers a person holds up then says "three". Hardware and software both, plus fun interaction is always a winner!\nMIKE


When I get into a catcher's stance all the way down and back up again, I hear crunching and popping my knees.  Anyone else get this?  I feel no pain either.

It's like cracking your knuckles. It's cardon dioxide released from your joints. Totally harmless.


It's most likely that you are suffering from allergies, if you find that your nose is running alot or even if you are blowing it alot, and maybe even sucking it back up sometimes, these are symptoms that cause a back up, your nasal tubes are connected to your ear tubes, It's that time of year you probrably need to take a prescribed          \nantihistimine, they are the most likely to work and trust they work good!


He is at 42 after he beat Federer yesterday at the Monte Carlo finals in 4 sets. (6-2, 6-7, 6-3, 7-6)\n\nThere are two players ahead of him.  Borg and Vilas with 46 and 53 wins respectively.\n\nhttp://www.atptennis.com/en/\n\nThe wins are at the bottom of the page.\n\nWhat do you other tennis fans think.  Is Nadal going to be able to win 12 more in a row on clay.

Nadal can definatly beat Borg's record and I hope he beats Vilas! Nadal played great to beat Federer and unless some other player figures out how to beat him on clay, Nadal could win at least 12 more.


how do i apply. do i do it online or go to the store or what?

Not many hire 15 year olds.  Some are grocery bagging jobs and fast food places, but more and more places don't even want to hire people until they are 18, and the ones who do hire teens usually want 16 year olds or older.  You can try going to fast food places or grocery stores and asking.  Good luck with that, if you do.  You should also see if your school is having a job fair or career fair.  Ask your guidance counselor.  If all else fails, go door to door and ask if people would pay you to help clean.  Save money  and get a mower and hedge clippers and expand to doing yard work.  You might also try babysitting.  While you are at it, check to see if any booths at nearby flea markets or small "mom and pop" stores need help.  You could get a job moving boxes or sweeping floors.  I still advise working for yourself, though-- you can make your own hours, for the most part.  Meanwhile, learn about a trade you could do now.  A pair of twin guys from Antiques Roadshow were collecting antiques and re-selling them when whey were kids.  Good luck with whatever you try!


Like, do they sit down with you, talk about all your parents expenses, bills, all that good stuff?  This financial aid shit is killing me.

I will "tweak" a student's application in extreme circumstances, but not often. \n\nHere's how it goes...\n\nYour school can adjust your FAFSA (the application for Federal Student Aid funding) under certain circumstances.  However, they are by no means required to -- it's up to them to decide whether the circumstances you describe qualify as exceptions to the already *very* detailed Federal Student Aid regulations.  Their ability to make exceptions to these rules is known as "Professional Judgment," a provision in the regulations that gives your school the power to adjust or override certain FAFSA data in cases where that data does not accurately reflect your situation.  Examples of exceptional circumstances might include...\n\n* If the income/asset information that was reported on the FAFSA does not accurately reflect your earnings/savings for the year in question.  if a parent lost their job (or a lot of income) in mid-2005, their 2005 tax return (on which the 06-07 FAFSA is based) will make them seem as if they earn more than they really do.  Your school could, in this case, use your parents' new income to estimate actual 2006 earnings and correct your FAFSA.\n\n* If someone in your family incurred a great deal of medical expenses not covered by their insurance, your school could take this into consideration, possibly by adjusting your/their assets or investments to reflect the money that was or will be paid out to cover these costs \n\n* If you are technically considered "dependent" according to the FAFSA guidelines, but you can prove that you are *completely* self-supporting (emphasis on "completely"), your school can perform a dependency override to have you classified as "independent" for FSA purposes. Essentially, this means that you will not have to include your parents' information on the FAFSA at all.\n\nI am always willling to take the above information into consideration.  However, even when I have adjusted for these things, often the student's eligibility doesn't change because their EFC doesn't change much.  (Keep in mind that a $5,000 decrease in income doesn't equal a $5,000 decrease in your EFC.)\n\nThere are a lot of expenses that I won't take into consideration.  For example, the FAFSA does not ask applicants about debt at all -- so if your school was to take your debt into consideration, they would have to do so for everyone at their school.  Moreover, when students appeal based on extraordinary living costs, the emphasis needs to be on the basics: rent/mortgage, utilities, transportation, etc.  It is important to know that the federal methodolody (used to calculate the EFC) has *already* left room for many expenses by sheltering a portion of the family's income/assets (through something called the "income protection allowance" and "asset protection allowance"). So, although many parents have additional costs (i.e. a child needs braces, someone's car needs repairs, someone else attends private elementary/secondary school...), these miscellaneous expenses are already accounted for (to a point).   Quite frankly, everyone (inclluding very poor people) has bills, so that doesn't really make for an extraordinary circumstance.\n\nShould you decide to approach, your FA officer, be prepared to not only *talk* about the bills but also provide copies of them.  Your school *must* document any changes that they make to your FAFSA data.  Schools are audited on a very regular basis, and if it is found that they did not follow protocol or "broke the rules," their ability to administed financial aid to future students (including you) could be seriously jeopardized.\n\nEDIT: The CSS Profile is a form that your school can request to help them calculate your eligibility for their *institutional* funding; it can't be used to assess your eligibility for federal aid.  It goes *much* more in dep


my question is this: is it really considered a fair playing field when some teams like the yankees, red sox, braves etc.. have the money to sign the best players while other teams who don't have that kind of money suffer?

That is why baseball needs a real salary cap like Football and hockey, but then yankee, braves and red sox fans will be mad because they won't make the playoffs every season and apparently parity only works in sports that don't play favorites with large market teams.


By using my poor Chinese skills I managed to get a China cyworld account hoping that I can view my Korean friends' cyworld website...but I realized it doesn't work...I need a Korean cyworld account in order to view my friends' website...but I don't understand any Korean at all...can anyone help? -0-

you need to sign up for a korean cyworld account yourself in order to add korean friends.  sometimes you can view items on their page without being added as their friend, but more often than not, most pictures and stuff are blocked to people who aren't added.  unfortunately, in order to register for a korean cyworld account, like every other korean site, you need a kid number... which is the korean equivalent of a us social security number.  foreigners are given the option to apply for a cyworld account by sending a faxed copy of their passport and alien registration card... but that's actually probably a lot of trouble, and you have to be able to understand korean in order to follow all of their guidelines.


It's just a T.V. show!\nIt's not like we think it's real or anything!

I totally agree with you. I don't think anybody expects it to be real. It's just entertainment.


I saw it in a National Geographic magazine the other day, and it looks cool

I know someone in North Hollywood who might be able to do it. He is a gay person named Maurice.


he knows i dig him and he digs me too.... problem is, our friends already make fun of us. we never even give the hint that were into eachother around them. i don't know what to do! we don't want to deal with them!

SCREW what everybody else thinks and GO FOR IT!!!!

I was promised things regarding a job taken 12 mos ago.  Some of it is sort of in writing.  Other people were hired then I was let go due to the company needing to "consolidate offices."  But they are still opening new offices. I was a explempary employee.  Do I have any legal recourse?

There are a few things I've learned in being terminated from a position I liked.  First, no matter how many of your old Boy Scout leaders, pastors, teachers and old girlfriends you line up for references, the former employer will always be believed over you.  If you were fired because you refused to give your boss certain "favors" not covered in the company handbook, and he says you were fired for coming to work drunk, you'll never get anywhere.\n\nStep One:  Screw job-hunting.  I've been doing it for nineteen months.  No success, due in large part to the fact that I'm getting torpedoed every time by that former boss.  A job you get fired from is tantamount in an interview to experience you don't have.  You may as well say you played with yourself for three years, rather than tell them that you were the best guy on the assembly line, showed up on time every day and busted your hump to make things good for yourself.\n\nStep Two:  Go into business for yourself.  Corporations are in the pocket of politicians, and you haven't the time or the energine to take on either in a fair fight.  Fight dirty or turn pro, but one has a longer line of credit in the breathing privileges department.\n\nStep Three:  Profit.  Show the world your potential by not compromising on ANYTHING in the pursuit of clearing your good name from whatever former employers have said.  Show your friends, family, and potential employers (when you return to the workforce-at-large) that you grew as a "lone wolf" rather than let your ass get kicked into your nostrils by a corporate machine that used you like a whore and discarded you like a candy bar wrapper.\n\nFollow these steps and you, my friend, will have the ultimate revenge:  fair-market competition.


I know she kinda  rules the country and meets loads of diplomats and travels the country.

The Queen actually has no ruling power & her position exists merely due to our (UK) Constitutional Law. The Government could remove her power simply by stopping her income (but she & her family would still have a vast private income). The power she seems to hold is an illusion and only in existence because of historical precedence!\nIf she actually has no 'real' power we might ask why she even exists - this is an individual thing.\n\nThe simple fact is that the Queen & the Royal Family are excellent envoys & create more revenue than it costs the UK tax payer to maintain them!

i need some help about this guy and fast!\nwho is he?

My parents had an album called "Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris"  It's spelled "Brel."  Here's some info.  \n\nJacques Brel (April 8, 1929 – October 9, 1978) was a Belgian French-speaking author-composer, considered by many as a poet as well, given the power of his lyrics. Known in the anglophone world for the translations of his songs, he is also remembered in French-speaking countries as an actor and director.


I would like to know.  I really do not understand the concept of men "scoring."   It seems to me such a waste of energy.   It seems you would bigger boast to your ego staying with one woman who knows how to nuture you.  I have my own reasoning why men do it, yet I would like to know why men think they do it. \n\n1.  When you first meet and woman--- is your goal always to score?\n\n2.  Is this just to boast your ego?  How does it boast your ego when you spread yourself around like you do not value your body?   (just my opinion)\n\n3. Have you ever considered the emotional burden you put on a woman by sleeping with her and skipping.

maybe you should ask the boys not the men. cause a man is someone who is responsible, someone who treats a woman with respect. a man doesnt do terrible things like you say. im sure if you found a man that does this it is because he isnt grown up and he is immature


My boyfriend has very bad psoriasis and his skin always itches  and swells up really badly. Does anyone know what can help him??? He uses vaseline to help relieve the dryness...

Specialist dermatologists generally treat psoriasis in steps based on the severity of the disease, size of the areas involved, type of psoriasis, and the patient's response to initial treatments. This is sometimes called the "1-2-3" approach. In step 1, medicines are applied to the skin (topical treatment). Step 2 uses ultraviolet light treatments (phototherapy). Step 3 involves taking medicines by mouth or injection that treat the whole immune system (called systemic therapy).\n\nOver time, affected skin can become resistant to treatment, especially when topical corticosteroids are used. Also, a treatment that works very well in one person may have little effect in another. Thus, doctors often use a trial-and-error approach to find a treatment that works, and they may switch treatments periodically (for example, every 12 to 24 months) if a treatment does not work or if adverse reactions occur.\nTreatments applied directly to the skin may improve its condition. Doctors find that some patients respond well to ointment or cream forms of corticosteroids, vitamin D3, retinoids, coal tar, or anthralin. Bath solutions and moisturizers may be soothing, but they are seldom strong enough to improve the condition of the skin. Therefore, they usually are combined with stronger remedies.\n\nBath solutions\nPeople with psoriasis may find that adding oil when bathing, then applying a moisturizer, soothes their skin. Also, individuals can remove scales and reduce itching by soaking for 15 minutes in water containing a coal tar solution, oiled oatmeal, Epsom salts, or Dead Sea salts.\n\nMoisturizers\nWhen applied regularly over a long period, moisturizers have a soothing effect. Preparations that are thick and greasy usually work best because they seal water in the skin, reducing scaling and itching.\n\nLight therapy\nNatural ultraviolet light from the sun and controlled delivery of artificial ultraviolet light are used in treating psoriasis.\n\nSunlight\nMuch of sunlight is composed of bands of different wavelengths of ultraviolet (UV) light. When absorbed into the skin, UV light suppresses the process leading to disease, causing activated T cells in the skin to die. This process reduces inflammation and slows the turnover of skin cells that causes scaling. Daily, short, nonburning exposure to sunlight clears or improves psoriasis in many people. Therefore, exposing affected skin to sunlight is one initial treatment for the disease.


Can anyone tell me a site where i can read about them ?\n\nor just give me a just with how to go anut with them.

The is the way us "little people" invest successfully.  I found a great conservative mutual fund years ago, it is the Lord Abbett family, and the fund is called Affiliated Fund.  What I like is that the "professional" investors take care of buying and selling and all, and since this one is relatively safe, I find my investment is doubling every 7 years.  An important note:  There are "load" funds and "no load" funds.  The difference is when you buy in.  For the load funds, there is a fee for buying.  For the no load funds there is no up front fee.  Another excellent company that I own is Wells Fargo, with a lot of funds to choose from.  This company has been around for a long time too.  Bottom line, don't take advice from anyone, even me.  Listen to everyone, read, and think for yourself.  Make your own decision and you can't go wrong.


Private sector an efficient provider of public goods and services and so government should refrain from production of such goods and services

I don't trust the private sector. I think that because they also have to make a profit for their services, they have a conflict of interest in helping.


What are these kegel exercises. I consulted many sites but i couldn't locate that muscle every site talks about. Please help. To be frank i want to do them so that i can shoot cum. ;-)

"There are exercises called Kegels for men that increase orgasm intensity. Kegels for men increase sexual feeling by strengthening the pelvic muscles. To get in touch with your pelvic muscles, pretend you're in danger of urinating or having a bowel movement but that you have to wait until you're near a toilet. The muscles you squeeze to hold it in are your pelvic muscles. To strengthen these muscles, start by holding and releasing them 15 times, twice a day. Don't hold the contraction — just squeeze and let go. You can do this unobserved almost anywhere — while driving a car, reading the paper, watching TV, during a meeting ... wherever. Gradually increase the number of squeezes until you're up to 75, twice a day. When you reach 75 at a sitting, instead of immediately releasing the contraction, hold it for a count of three, and then relax and repeat. Work up slowly to about 50 of these longer Kegels. Continue doing the exercises for six weeks, alternating between the shorter and the longer Kegels. The results should be noticeable in your orgasms after a month or more. Once you have the technique down, you can squeeze your pelvic muscles when you're having an erotic fantasy, when you're being sexually stimulated, or when you're having intercourse. Feel free to experiment and see what methods increase your orgasmic intensity the most."


My brother is curious and I found this web so i thought i could find it out for him.

Bones are made of a mix of hard stuff that gives them strength and tons of living cells which help them grow and repair themselves. Like other cells in your body, the bone cells rely on blood to keep them alive. Blood brings them food and oxygen and takes away waste. \nIf bones weren't made of living cells, things like broken toes or arms would never mend. But don't worry, they do. That's because your bone cells are busy growing and multiplying to repair the break! How? When you break your toe, blood clots form to close up the space between the broken segments. Then your body mobilizes bone cells to deposit more of the hard stuff to bridge the break. \nSkin is alive. It's made of many thin sheets of layers of flat, stacked cells in which you'll find nerves, blood vessels, hair follicles, glands, and sensory receptors. \nOlder cells are constantly being pushed to the surface by new cells which grow from below. When the old ones reach the top, they become wider and flatter as they get rubbed and worn by all your activity. And, sooner or later, they end up popping off like tiles blown from a roof in a strong wind. In fact, every minute 30,000-40,000 dead skin cells fall from your body! In approximately a month's time, your body has made a whole new layer of skin cells!\nAs an adult, you may have more than 20 square feet of skin -- about the size of a blanket. \nYou are likely to shed some 40 pounds of skin in a lifetime. \nRight now there are over a million dust mites, microscopic critters invisible to the naked eye, on your mattress and pillow, chomping on the dead skin cells that fell off you last night!

A friend of mine thinks he cannot live without it!

Marijuana is not addicting but if you are useto smoking everyday and quit cold turkey there can be withdrawal symptoms (cold sweats, mood swings, headaches etc.). Your friend can live without it, he just enjoys it. Let him be, eventually it will stop.


I have inflamed gums and braces Can someone help me?

You have to do the work.  If you are not brushing properly and using a floss threader and flossing EVERYDAY then your gums will not heal.  Braces are even worse on teeth and gums as they get everything caught in them.  The bacteria and food debris just sits there on those brackets and wires, which in turn your body wants to fight off, hence you get swollen sore gums.  I know that trying to floss with a full-set of braces is a pain.  It is even for me when I have to floss one of my ortho patients, and I am a hygienist. I can't imagine having to do this at home. But you can do it.  You just have to make the time.  An electric toothbrush is a great thing for people with braces, it does not have to be an expensive one, the pulsar by oral-b is a great one and it costs about six dollars at walmart.  You have to take even better care of your mouth then the average person does when you have braces.  The only way to get all of the nasties out of your mouth is to brush, then floss, making sure to go under your wires by using super floss or a floss threader, taking care to wrap each side of the tooth like a "C" shape to clean each side of the tooth and under the gum-line, and then following by a vigorous swish with mouthwash or salt water.  The salt water is a great way to help heal the gums up and make them less sore.  Yes it tastes nasty, but it is a tried and true method.  Just try to remember that you will not have to wear braces forever, and once they are off you will have a great smile, as long as you do the work now.

Find the 100th term of the arithmetic sequence with first term 5 and eight term 19.

The formula for finding the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is\n\nan = a1 + (n - 1)d\n\nYou need the spacing, d:\n\n19 = 5 + (8 - 1)d\n14 = 7d\nd = 2\n\nSo now you can find the 100th term:\n\na(100) = 5 + (100 - 1)2\n= 5 + (99)2\n= 203

Technically, but first you have to "rent" the gazebo for the wedding to be valid. Renting land accorsding to Jewish law is VERY complicated,so I'd stick w/ a chuppa. If you want a gazebo, give him money (actual bills, not a check, not coins) and say that u are renting the gazebo and the land it is on with this money for 8 hours. But it's better to be safe.

This is a legal issue, a landlord-tenant question. The landlord has the heating propane in his name, the tenant has not paid the landlord for the propane, the landlord wants to turn off the propane.  Can he legally do this in Montana?

You will have to check Montana Landlord Tenant law.  Does your lease spell out who pays for utilities?  If lease states Landlord pays, then he cannot shut off utilities even if you don't pay your rent.

Generally your pay will start 30 days from when you join, but if you start Basic training on the 15th of April for example you likely won't get paid until the 1st June, but you will get paid for that whole time period. New recruits are paid once a month on the 1st of the month until you fill out paperwork to start getting paid twice a month in which case your pay is evenly split between the 1st and 15th of the month. If you're worried about money, when you go to Basic training they give you an amount of money (think it was $250 they put it on a card) to buy items that you'll need for treaining like running shoes, toiletries etc. The only thing is that you can only use it at the Post Exchange or Shoppette, if you don't use all the money at the end of Basic  they will take the card back and give you the cash in your next pay check. Hope that helps!


We've all heard of Civilian contractors being taken prisoner, killed, etc overseas... How does one land a job like that? Given they are willing to take the risk. Anyone know of any contractors hiring overseas, or potential "danger zone" jobs?  Thanks

Yes. You can contact Bechtel or Halliburton corporations. Danger zones is any job that you work outside of the "Green Zone." If you are an African American, Mexican or minority, chances are you won't be a target for kidnapping. America doesn't value these lives as much as White Americans. Radicals know this. Therefore, little or no bargaining will be done. This doesn't mean you won't be a target for killing if you are part of a convoy.


Any comments on the merit of "Love thy Neighbor" by Peter Maass?

The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina armed conflict took place from 6 April 1992 to 14 September 1995. It started when Bosnia declared independence and ended with the dayton peace\n accords\n\n\nOK...\n to look at the causes of the conflict in Bosnia... you most first look at the history of Yugoslavia, and why there was civil war in other area of Ex Yug\n\nYugoslavia only came into existence after world war 2.\nBefore that roughly the same area was called the kingdom of the Serbs, Slovenes and Croats. This only existed after the first world war.\nBefore that Serbia and Croatia, and Bosnia etc had separate histories and cultural influences. Serbia was under the Ottoman empire whilst Croatia was under the Austro-Hungarian.\nSome people say that Yugoslavia only stayed together because of Tito's firm grip. Tito died in 1980. In the 1980's Yugoslavia economy first started showing the signs of strain that had already existed but were hidden well by Tito's position in the world, and Yugoslavia prestige of not being neither West or East.\nThis was the time when nationalist tensions first became to show (they had appeared before but were dealt with efficiently by Tito -- both Tudjman and Izabegovic 1st presidents of modern Croatia and Bosnia respectively had spent time in prison for nationalism)\nBy the times of the late 80's , Yugoslavia was ready to fall apart... \nNationalism was everywhere..\nIn Serbia started by a nationalist memorandum in 1986 by intellectuals... \nBy 1989 (a then new) Milosevic had removed autonomy from Kosovo and Vojvodina...\nThrough out Europe communism was falling, and people were wanting changes of government.\nSlovenia first wanted indepence. Partly because it was the richest province in Yugoslavia and was sick of seeing it's money spent on poorer areas. Partly because it was wanted to be more democratic and was worried by Milosevic's pro Serb, and neo communistic tendencies....\n\nSo when Slovenia declared indepence it was impossible for Croatia not to as well... Croatia had a strong natioanlist history lead by it's leader Tudjman. And wanted to regain 1000 years of Croatian history.\nIf Slovenia and Croatia were both accepted as independent by the EU , which they were..\nIt was impossble for Bosnia to stay in Yugoslavia...\n\nBUT.. \n\nThey were many Serbs who lived in all areas of the former Yugoslavia especially Croatia and Bosnia...\nThey did not want to leave Yugoslavia, and wanted to stay with Serbia...\nThey were also scared of nationalism in Croatia because during the second world many Croats were supporter of the Ustasa who were supporters of Hitler. The ustasa had massacered many Serbs in death camps such as Jasenovic.\nSome modern Croats were sympathisers with the Ustase and some of the decisions made by Tudjman gave Serbs a reason to fear living in an Independent Croatia.....\nWhilst in Bosnia alot of nationalist propganda brought to the forefront a hate of Islam, and of the Ottoman past..\nThe Bosniak leader Izabegovic was accused of been an Izlamic fundamentalist and wanting to make Bosnia like Saudi Arabia...\n\nThe war was worst in Bosnia because it was a microcosim of Yugoslavia as a whole and Croatians, Bosnians, and Serbs had lived together side by side.....So when the spirit of nationalism came the fighting would be the worst in Bosnia...\n\n\nThis is why the civil war happened....\nOf course now relations are much better between all countries and current politicans are trying to make ammends for the past and build a future.

dried paint all over the parts. What is this? Is it suppusoed to be there or is it the cause of my problems? Please help!

Dell's customer support have always been great for me - they will be happy to give you the right spec for the fan.\n\nAny of the major electronic component shops (like Maplin Electronics etc) will be able to supply the fight stuff.  You should be able to take out the fan you have and (with the correct voltage applied) test it - it is entirely possible that the electrical connection has simply come off.\n\nThe white stuff is likely to be either heat transfer compound or some sort of adhesive used to stop components shaking loose.\n\nHave fun :-)

Solstices are determined by the relationship of the earth to the sun, so yes.


he said that they can't have se x till they have a wife so the boys all do each other and their dads? is that true? and if it is what do the girls do

It is very untrue. As in most religions, they are not supposed to have premarital sex, but they certainly aren't all over there packing fudge, either. Would you screw a man just cause you couldn't get some p***y?

Shouldnt they worry about having a thick one instead?

It's basically the same reason as why women worry about having large breasts, or rather, wanting to have large breasts.


I need some vegetarian recipes so I dont have to snack on friut and veggies all day long. My parents are both non-vegetarians and they told me that all the vegetarian foods are gross. I need to find some good recpe so I dont just snack on that stuff. PLease help me out!

Check out the frozen food section of your grocery store.  They may sell products like Boca, Morningstar Farms, or other vegetarian options.  Also, look in the natural food department of the store.  There are many vegetarian snack options and meal options there.  Make sure you read the packaging though because some of the items are "natural" and some are vegetarian.
