Thought, I love thought.  But not the jangling and twisting of already existent ideas, I despise that self important game.  Thought is the welling up of statements on the cornerstone of the conscience; thought is reading what cannot be read, and coming to a conclusion.  Thought is not a game, not a trick, nor a set of dodges,  Thought is a man in his wholeness wholly attending.

Thought is not the be-it-all.  Thought is often associated with emotion and memories.  Even Spock and Data understand that thought is not the whole of human existence.  Current Western society seems to place more emphasis on material possessions that on spiritual growth.  It also seems to believe that logical thought is somehow a higher development than emotional expression.  The biggest fault of thoughts is they are almost always an excuse to guard oneself from Reality.  Life is a mystery, not a sequence of thoughts.


Typically the problem is with the wireless source, such as the router, If your using a wireless b router the range is only 150 feet but you can get special antenas for it, some newer routers using the new Wireless G standard have a range up to 1800 feet. But usually only a couple hundred feet. And make sure your not covering the card with anything such as  metal objects (especially lead) and hands...etc...

Are lazy kids using Yahoo Answers to do their homework?  It seems like a lot of school text book type questions are being asked in this forum.

Look up in\nAll Categories>Education & Reference> \nYou will a sub category called 'Homework Help'\nThis proves that this site is MADE to provide Homework Help to the poor chaps.


Is it, cause the system requiments are 512 ram. And most of the ram is used because of the 3d desktop.

i have beta tested it and you are right that you need 512 but there are some cool features check out the web site below windows vista is mostly microsoft trying to be more like apple \n                  keep asking!


My Mother-in-law says she would love to sew things for our new baby.  I buy the material and very simple patterns. Then I wait. and wait.  She doesn't work, and barely leaves the house.  How do I ask her where these items are?  Or do I just ask for all of it back?  My emotions get the best of me in these situations, so I need advice....

Ask her if such and such item will be ready by such and such date, you don't want to nag, but this or that event is coming up and you'd love to be able to show off her handiwork along with the baby.

Olive oil is very suitable for sauteing and frying. It is sometimes mixed with butter to allow one to fry at higher heat than butter would allow but still get some of the taste of butter. \n\nOlive oil is not suitable for deep frying, though. Use peanut oil for deep frying.\n\nThere are several grades of olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is very flavorful and the most expensive, and people suggest using it for dressings and such. Use a lower grade olive oil to fry with, such as virgin olive oil or just plain olive oil is more economical.\n\nHey--check out the many uses of olive oil on the Olive Oil Page: http://frugalliving.about.com/cs/tips/a/bloliveoil.htm


i have extremely thin hands .i wants increase the size of my wrists by increase bone size.how is this possible.

The first thing I would think about if you have thin hands is whether or not you have Marfan syndrome.  This can result in thing long fingers and is a problem with collagen.  If this is the case, you could also have weakened artery walls and should discuss this issue with your doctor.\n\nIf you do not have Marfan Syndrome (which only a doctor can diagnose), you can increase your hand size (thickness, not length) through weight bearing excercise and enough protein and calcium (a healthy diet essentially).  Try to use free weights that require the constant use of hand muscles to pick up, hang on to, and put back.  This will build muscle in the hand.\n\nIt is possible that the bones will thicken somewhat in certain places also from the pull of strengthened muscles on them, but this will take years to show.\n\nNone of these ideas will change wrist size much fast.  The wrist has little muscle fiber in, rather it has many tendons passing through it.  Tendons will respond over time with weight training, but they take much longer than muscles, and they do not grow nearly as musch as muscles do.

brother keeps asking for nude photos about 6 times a day via email I wondered when it is considered abuvie and harrassment or threatening? He has done this to another sibling years ago

even if he is just messing around, 6 times a day for nudity is still harrassment.  \n\nthe courts will have to take into consideration context & intentions, & his approach of soliciting U, when it comes to abuse, or repeated threats.  his history will also become relavent, in soliciting other siblings.  \n\nis this your biological brother, or step brother..  cuz DUDE, that doesn't sound right.

what are those bubbles.\nIf air then from where does it come?\nbcoz water does not contain that air

The bubbles contain water steam. Steam is a transparent gas, the white mist you can see above chimneys isn't steam but recondensed water in fine droplets, just as in fog or clouds.


sorry i hope you understand.\n\nWhen a man urinate in a toilet bowl (those type where you have a pool of water in the bowl and you can flush everything down), and it creates foams in the water as if there is soap in the water, what is the source of the foam? because the urine is rich in Sperm? or, any other reason?

Every quarter, I run a urine lab in my introductory Human biology course.\nAfter everyone gets over feeling uncomfortable by having others see their\nurine, it turns out to be one of the most popular labs we do.\nInterestingly, I usually get at least one female asking me the same\nquestion--quite confidentially. "Why is it that male urine seems to have\nmore bubbles that female urine?"\n\nMy off-the-top-of-my-head response has always been in the method of\ncollection. I suggest that males, perhaps because of greater force, or\ndistance, are able to "blast" the sample and thus create more froth. A\nlogical hypothesis, I thought, but never tested.\n\nI could not think of a very accurate way to test the hypothesis, and still\nmaintain the high standards of our institution and still retain my job. But\nlast week, I figured out a way.\n\nWhen the student returned to the lab with their samples in hand, I asked\nthree males and three females, if I might have a third of a test tube of\ntheir finest for a test I was going to run. They agreed, and the only\nidentifying marks were the classic male and female symbols on the test\ntubes. Each test tube was covered with parafilm, and then each was shaken\n(not stirred) for five times (or 5 "shakes").\n\nAll three of the male samples created 2-4 cm. "heads," while all three\nfemale samples could only muster about 0.5 cm. worth of effort. After\nstanding for 1 hour, the male samples still had about 1 cm. of foam, while\nthe female samples were entirely bubbleless.\n\nObviously, the bubble factor of urine is not due to the method of\ncollection, but shows a definite dimorphic difference. I realize that the\nsample size was small and the experiment lacked the proper elegance to be\nrecorded in a journal. Still, while trying hard not to appear sexist, it\ndoes appear that males are better bubble-makers than females.

It wasn't easy to find information on a very old song. Please find my answer to your previous question. Sorry, I had tried my best.


really a formula that we could use would be helpfull.  we are always quessing how many feet is left on a roll to determine if we can make the order.  It would be great if we could just measure from the core out ie. tape measure reads 15" from core radius (15+15=30"Dia roll not counting 8" core)\n\nIt would be great if we could just multiply however many inches is left on the radius by a number to tell us how many feet is left on the roll.\n\nlook forward to the responses

Cool problem.\n\n6908.9 feet when the diameter is 25".\n\nThe formula is:\nL = (X^2+8*X)*49.26108,  \nwhere L is the length of paper remaining in feet, and X is the measure from the core out in inches\n\n\nIt's not simply a number times the measure because an inch near the core is not the same amount of paper as an inch near the edge.\n\nIt's important to realize that any formula will be an approximation.  You can't be very precise when measuring the size of the roll, and the size of the core is not always going to be exactly the same.  And the paper may be tighter near the core than on the outside.  Also, based on the info given, the thickness of the paper is actually .005314528".\n\n\nThere are a couple ways to approach this.  The easiest way, which happens not to be very intuitive, is to correlate the area of the cross-section with the length of paper.\n\nIf you want to follow this, draw two concentric circles - one representing the core, and the other representing the paper around the core.\n\nThe radius of the larger circle is X+4 inches.\nThe radius of the smaller circle is 4 inches.\n\nThe area of the donut area (representing the paper) is π*(X+4)^2-π*16 = π*((X+4)^2-16) = π*(X^2+8*X) square inches\n(In case the font is not clear in the browser, "π" is pi=3.141593.)\n\nLength x thickness = area of cross section\n(For this purpose, I'm assuming that the area of the cross section for a given amount of paper is the same whether it's rolled around a core, or it's cut into sheets and stacked.)\n\nWhen X=21 inches, Length = 30,000 feet = 360,000 inches\n\n(360,000 inches)*thickness = 3.141593 * (21^2+8*21)\nSo, thickness = .005314528 inches\n\nTo derive the formula:\n(Length in feet)*(12 inches/foot)*thickness=area of cross-section\n\nL*(12 in/ft)*(.005314528 in)=3.141593*(X^2+8*X)\n\nSolve for L:\nL=(X^2+8*X)*49.26108\nL is in feet, X is in inches.\n\n\nThe question asked how many feet when the diameter is 25".  \nX=8.5\nL=(8.5^2+8*8.5)*49.26108 = 6908.9 ft.


i reallly like this guy we've already gone out but my parents were opposed to use going out im 13 and he is 15 we were friends for a long time and my parents didnt care when we were friends and when he asked me out  the parents wouldnt let me go any where with him is was like he was some strange guy they never met when really they saw him ALL the time so we both said we should be friends but it has been 2 monthes of just friends again and i REALLY love him he keeps almost saying he loves me  like ill ask him and he will say yes he loves me but that we cant like each other and it is for my own good and he doesnt want me to get hurt if things dont work out with my parents and i can tell he really wants to be with me i can hear it in his voice i dont know what to do any more help

This may not be exactly what you want to hear but I'm going to answer your question in the adult manner in which you asked it.\n\nIf the relationship is meant to be, it will last the test of time...time for both of you to grow up a bit more & wait to date with your parents approval. I know this doesn't help much but everyone, including your boy-friend is trying to look out for you & do what's best. Personally, it always annoyed me when people did this for me when I was your age so I can understand you feeling like you don't know where to turn.\n\nMy suggestion is to remain friends with this boy & don't try to take things too fast. There is always time for dating in a few years, not to mention all of the other things that tend to come with dating. While you might feel ready for some of that now, you will appreciate it much more after having waited for it & building a stronger friendship. Yes, I know you may not believe this right now so, please, read this little story about my cousin...\n\nI have a cousin who met a boy when they were both young...just about your age, in fact. The two of them became friends but he was shy &, as time went on, he never asked her out. He didn't go out with anyone else either & always spent his free time with her. Well, when they turned 16 & 17, he finally asked her out & they dated only each other. As it turned out, the boy had asked my uncle long ago what his rules were about dating his daughter (when he was about 14, I believe) & also told my uncle of his intention to marry her someday. While my uncle didn't believe it at the time, he certainly did as the years rolled by & the boy refused to date anyone other than my cousin. All the way through high school & college they were a pair &, believe it or not, they didn't even go in for the things that most teenagers do, if you know what I mean. To everyone else it just seemed like a sweet & gentle relationship.\n\nWhen they finally moved to that next level of a relationship, they were already in college, having been together & waited years with nothing more than kisses & hugs. They are now married with a beautiful child &, I promise you, have one of the strongest relationships that I have ever seen. I honestly think this is because they were friends first & took their time learning everything about each other.\n\nI hope this helps & that you can learn something useful from my cousin's story...


The only answer I've ever heard that made sense is "pacifier's"

We are classified as mammals.  Mammals feed their young by the use of breast milk.  All male and female animals have nipples (what was God thinking?), but only the females have the hormones and additional physical items necessary to activate the lactation process.\n\nGender differneces stem from the X/Y genetic differences.  The rest of the body (including nipples) is controlled by genes elsewhere.\n\nStranger questions would be why do some women have Adam's apples or beards.  Nobody knows.


I had read about speed records around 7 GBPS, but it had been broken this year. Who broke it and what are the record speeds. Pleaase include the link. Thank You.

Internet2 Speed Record\nOn 14 April 2004 a team of engineers from Sprint Corporation in San Jose, California, USA, and the Swedish National Research and Education Network successfully transmitted 838.86 gigabytes of data over a distance of 16,343 km (10,155 miles) in 1,588 seconds. The resulting record value of 69,073 terabit metres-per-second was achieved over public networks using IPv4. The start and end points of the transmission were San Jose, California, USA, and the University of Luleå , Luleå , Sweden.\nhttp://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/index.asp?id=58445\n\n\nI think you may looking for this result\n\n Networking\nSeptember 2, 2004\nScientists Set Internet2 Speed Record\nBy Susan Kuchinskas\n\nScientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) set a new land-speed record for Internet2, a second-generation network serving universities and research institutes.\n\nThe team, which included folks from AMD (Quote, Chart), Cisco (Quote, Chart), Microsoft Research, Newisys, and S2io, transferred 859 gigabytes of data in less than 17 minutes. It did so at a rate of 6.63 gigabits per second (define) between the CERN facility in Geneva, Switzerland, and Caltech in Pasadena, Calif., a distance of more than 15,766 kilometers, or approximately 9,800 miles.\n\nScientists are racing to move gigantic amounts of data by 2007, when CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will switch on. This huge underground particle accelerator will produce some 15 petabytes (define) of data a year, which will be stored and analyzed on a global grid of computer centers.\n\nHigh-energy physicists are excited about the LHC because they hope it will allow them to find the Higgs boson, a theoretical particle that they believe creates mass.\n\n"Physicists are trying to fill in the blank spaces in our model of high energy physics," said Jim Gray a Microsoft Research engineer who helped set Wednesday's record.\n\nBut this $10 billion collider will be of little use if scientists around the world can't access the data.\n\nResearchers aren't the only ones excited about blazing data speeds. This record speed of 6.63Gbps is equivalent to transferring a full-length DVD movie in four seconds. There are uses in astronomy, bioinformatics, global climate modeling and seismology, as well as commercial applications from entertainment to oil and gas exploration.\n\nInternet2 is fast -- Abilene, a U.S. cross-country backbone network, blasts data at 10Gbps. But transoceanic networking is another story. There are hardware and software issues to overcome, Gray said.\n\nFor example, one limiting factor is that the fastest available interface for PCs is the PCIX64 Bus Isolation Extender, which can only handle 7.5Gbps.\n\nThe land-speed test is part of an ongoing R&D program to create high-speed global networks as the foundation of next-generation, data-intensive grids with a goal of transferring data at 1Gbps.\n\nThe performance also is the first record to break the 100-petabit meter per second mark. One petabit is 1,000,000,000,000,000 bits (define). That may seem like an almost inconceivably large number, but Gray said storing petabits of data is a fact of life for many large corporations. He said Microsoft has about 5 petabits of data, and he estimates Google and Yahoo store that much, as well.\n\n"If you have a million customers and they each have a gigabyte of storage, that's a petabit," he said.\n\nThe technology used in setting this record included S2io's Xframe 10 GbE server adapter, Cisco 7600 Series Routers, Newisys 4300 servers using AMD Opteron processors, Itanium servers and the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003.\nhttp://www.internetnews.com/infra/article.php/3403161

AND HOW CAN ONE GET ONE?  WHAT ARE THE HINTS TO LOOK FOR?

Ah, the old "hump & dump".  It's not wrong (unless you're married or in a committed relationship).  It can be fun.  If you're a chick, you can just go to any bar in america and walk up to a guy and tell him you are looking for a one night stand and you're all set. You'll just want to make sure he's not gay and make sure he's not already with another chick (if he is, you may have to just wait until she goes to the bathroom-he'll figure out a way to ditch her unless she's his wife or roommate). If you are a guy it is a bit more complicated.


"How Do I make a web page," if a very general question. I'm very young and yet very interested in this subject: Web Designing/Creation/Enginnering.  I've gone through many html (HyperText Markup Language, If you don't have the slightest idea what this is please read a book, or take a class so you can even think about web pages) editors, but all stink. All these editors do is make a WYSIWYG environment , and then later turn it into raw html code. If you use Microsoft FrontPage you'd understand what I'm talking about. Now There are two main and better than anyother html editors which can also create other types of webpages (PHP, SQL, XML, SHTML, etc) 1)Microsoft Frontpage and 2)Macromedia Dreamweaver. If you want to go hardcore and like to figure out perplexing things, go with Dreamweaver, I've you want to go with a great and easier to use editor go with Frontpage. I work Frontpage cause I'm to lazy to figure out Dreamweaver.  But let me tell you, Frontpage is easier, better, and a lot cheaper. With Frontpage you can manipulate raw html (webpage) code or the WYSIWYG Environment and more. But if your a beginner who is easily confused and you don't understand what I've written, go to your public library and take out "The dummies guide to creating webpages."\n\n  Once you get your website created with a html editor ask another question and I'll help you get set up with your own website domain name and all.\n\n\nHope I was helpful,\n\nrnc505\n\nP.S.

If you don't have an immediate need for a Mac, you may want to wait for Intel-based Macs to come on the market  in mid-2006.  If you're considering a Powerbook, this hopefully will coincide with Apple introducing Powerbooks based on Yonah, the dual-core low-power CPU Intel is currently developing.  If you do have an immediate need for a Mac, then by all means you should get one - the current PowerMacs, especially the Quad (featuring two dual-core CPUs) are excellent systems.

I have the recovery disk but i lost the windows authentification #.  Is there anything I can do.  I have used a boot up disk but not sure what to do with it.  Help!!

The authentication number usually comes with the recovery disc.  However, if you have lost it, you can simply call tech support of your PC manufacturer and they can provide you with your lost authentication or replacement discs (that may cost, but it will be lesser than buying Windows).  The boot up disk will help you gain access to the computer but it might not have all the drivers required to run your computer full steam.

In my opinion who gives a S*!*\nWhy do people care so much about wether you say merry Christmas or happy holidays. If you are not Christian then people probably know, and will say whatever people of your religion normally say. I personally like to stick to tradition and say Merry Christmas.

The problem is these bleading-heart, save-the-world, tree-hugging, starbucks drinking, pot smoking, rainbow flag waving, im better than you and my way is the right way liberals that dont want you to say merry christmas....so my message to them is...MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS


The nautical mile is 1.852 km and the regular mile is 1.6093 km, a difference of about 15%. \n\nThe nautical mile is the length of one minute of arc of a great circle. A great circle is the intersection of the surface of a sphere with a (geometric) plane passing through the center of said sphere. The Equator is one great circle, so essentially a nautical mile is the the length of one minute of arc on the Equator. Presumably they felt the need to define it this way because of the impossibility of measuring 5,280 feet on the trackless sea surface. It's just happy coincidence that this distance is approximately the same as a "regular" mile (hey, 15% isn't too far off when you're talking about the ocean).


by track season i want to get to a 5:00 mile and by my seanior year i want to break the school record of 4:18 what's my speed.

60 MPH = 1 mile / minute.  Therefore, a 5 minute mile would be 12 MPH.\n\n4:45 = 4.75 minutes, or 12.63157 MPH\n4:30 = 4.5 minutes or 13.333 MPH\n4 minutes = 15 MPH


With or Without You by U2 and REM songs!


This Life is temporary. 60,70,even 100 years at the most. Time flies by everyday. One thing everyone can agree on is that One day we will all Die. But the differences come on what will happen after Death or if anything will. From the Islamic view we beleive this life is a Test to see who will enter Heaven and who will enter Hell. The way to Heaven is to Obey and worship God. By following God's rules and restrictions. Since God is PERFECT we should expect that the path to Him would be from a Perfect Source. That would be the Quran and God challenges any one to find any doubt in it or produce a single chapter like it.\n"1 Alif. Lam. Mim. \n2 This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil).  \n3 Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them;  \n4 And who believe in that which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) and that which was revealed before thee, and are certain of the Hereafter.  \n5 These depend on guidance from their Lord. These are the successful."  (Ch.2, Verses 1-5)\n"Or do they say: "He (Muhammad SAW) has forged it?" Say: "Bring then a Soorah (chapter) like unto it, and call upon whomsoever you can, besides Allah, if you are truthful!"  (Chapter #10, Verse #38)\n\nAs Muslims we beleive that after Death everybody who everlived will be Ressurrected Again For The Day Of Judgement. In which we will find out who is going to Heaven or HEll. As stated in the Quran.\n"48 And they say: "When will this promise (i.e. Resurrection) be fulfilled, if you are truthful?"  \n49 They await only but a single Saihah (shout, etc.), which will seize them while they are disputing!  \n50 Then they will not be able to make bequest, nor they will return to their family.  \n51 And the Trumpet will be blown (i.e. the second blowing) and behold! From the graves they will come out quickly to their Lord.  \n52 They will say: "Woe to us! Who has raised us up from our place of sleep." (It will be said to them): "This is what the Most Beneficent (Allah) had promised, and the Messengers spoke truth!"  \n53 It will be but a single Saihah (shout, etc.), so behold! They will all be brought up before Us!  \n54 This Day (Day of Resurrection), none will be wronged in anything, nor will you be requited anything except that which you used to do.  \n55 Verily, the dwellers of the Paradise, that Day, will be busy in joyful things.  \n56 They and their wives will be in pleasant shade, reclining on thrones.  \n57 They will have therein fruits (of all kinds) and all that they ask for.  \n58 (It will be said to them): Salamun (peace be on you), a Word from the Lord (Allah), Most Merciful.  \n59 (It will be said): "And O you Al-Mujrimoon (criminals, polytheists, sinners, disbelievers in the Islamic Monotheism, wicked evil ones, etc.)! Get you apart this Day (from the believers).  \n60 Did I not ordain for you, O Children of Adam, that you should not worship Shaitan (Satan). Verily, he is a plain enemy to you.  \n61 And that you should worship Me (Alone Islamic Monotheism, and set up not rivals, associate-gods with Me). That is a Straight Path.  \n62 And indeed he (Satan) did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did you not, then, understand?  \n63 This is Hell which you were promised!  \n64 Burn therein this Day, for that you used to disbelieve.  \n65 This Day, We shall seal up their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their legs will bear witness to what they used to earn. (It is said that ones left thigh will be the first to bear the witness). (Tafsir At-Tabaree, Vol. 22, Page 24)  \n66 And if it had been Our Will, We would surely have wiped out (blinded) their eyes, so that they would struggle for the Path, how then would they see?  \n67 And if it had been Our Will, We could have transformed them (into animals or lifeless objects) in their places. Then they should have been unable to go f

I'm fine for ages then I go through a period where nothing I do seems to help the symptoms. Any advice would be much appreciated.

IBS is similar to ulcarative colitis in that you may have periods of constipation and bouts of bloody diarrhea. Sometimes diet can affect it, sometimes lactose can aggravate it. IT can be cyclical in nature. THe best way to manage this condition is by lifestyle changes. If you are having constipation, increase the amount of fiber you are eating. If you are having diarrhea, eat low fiber foots like meat and potatoes. Sometimes medications like Asacol or Sulfasalazine can help. THese are anti-inflammatory drugs specifically made for GI problems. I hope this helps you. A GOOD gastroenterologist and a sympathetic friend will get you through this condition. It may improve with age.

I was just wondering how many bytes or bits each packet was.

The largest packet on an ethernet network is 1514 bytes. They can be smaller. If you want to see your actual packets you can use a product called Ethereal. It will caputure your packets so you can view them in the program to see what is happening.


You're right to stay away from the commercial products.  The easiest way to relieve bloatedness is to drink a couple of tablespoons of vinegar.  You can mix it with honey to make it easier on the taste buds.  It's also great for a sore throat as it disinfects the throat.  (It has a high acid content that kills bad bacteria and adds to the hydrochloric acid in your stomach to help you to digest your food).

I'm 16 and I'm looking for a job I could do online or offline.

In my opinion you are better off looking for job around town instead of on-line.  Many companies would like extra summer/after school help but do not advertise.  Talk to business owners around town and see how you can help them out.  If you are good with computers explain to them how you can help them with their computer needs.  Maybe they are wanting a website created or help with computer configuration.\n\nJust stop by a business and ask to talk with the owner.  You'll be surprised on how receptive people are.


I have a wrt54g with high gain antenna's.  Would a linksys range expander work better or a new expanded range router?

If you have a pre version 5, ie version 4 and lower, you can upload another firmware to the router which will give you a bunch of other features, including increasing the transmission power of the router.  As it stands linksys limits you to 28 mw transmission power.  With the dd-wrt firmware, you can up it to 251 mw transmission power.  Doin this will reduce the number of dropped conections and increase the range that the router can be accessed from.\n\nI use dd-wrt on my router and have had no problem with it at all.

tell me some events.  and will 2006 be a big year please be specific

Firstly, you want answerers to tell you "some events". Do you want those in 2005 or predicted ones in 2006?  Secondly, how can we be "specific" if your question is asking for something nobody can ascertain? Whether 2006 has a lot of events depends on how you define "events". There could be an outbreak of H5N1 (you can say this is a single event) and authorities all over the world have different plans to deal with it and the United Nations co-ordinate them (for example only, and those can be regarded as two separate events)...\n\nAfter all, we are not fortune-tellers. Even they themselves are not 100% sure of whether their guessings are correct.

Two important works of Al-Khwarizmi are:\n1. Al-Jabr wa-al-Muqabilah (from whose title came the name "Algebra" )\n2. Kitab al-Jam'a wal-Tafreeq bil Hisab al-Hindi (on Arithmetic, which survived in a Latin translation but was lost in the original Arabic)


Seems some say burping is good after a meal cause it proves that you are full which means that the food was good which is a big complement to the host (his wife actually who probably did the cooking).\n\nSome say it is bad manners. \n\nWhat say u folks????

I think it depends on how you want to be toward others in your presence. Manners are so that people can feel comfortable and even caring toward one another. It seems that because you asked the question that you care about others and want them to feel good about being with and around you. For most people in Western cultures, burping is offensive. That’s why when one slips out; people are quick to say, “Excuse me.” We all get that an occasion burp will get by our guard. But to burp otherwise is generally deemed offensive and therefore . . . the answer to your question is NO, burping after a meal is NOT OKAY! See the Source Site below:

Hey guys! Can anyone tell me what exactly happend to the company ENRON, Im really curious. I hear a little bit here and there about it but never really knew what happend to it.

They falsified their accounts.\n\nBosses said they were doing well and they weren't. So all those people who worked there for years and were looking forward to a pension had nothing to look forward to.


i dont really know much about computers but i wanna upgrade so i can play some other PC games that require better components. currently, i have a geforce 5500 FX and i have a little more than $300 to spend. any suggestions on what i should buy?

If you have a GeForce FX5500, then chances are you have an AGP slot.  Unfortunately, your choices are pretty limited as Nvidia and ATI are moving on to PCI-Express x16 slots for their high-end card.\n\nThe choices are the following then:\nHigher Geforce 5xxx, Radeon 9xxx, Geforce 6xxx.\n\nUnless they release more in AGP format, your best selection would be either a Geforce 6600GT or 6800.  These cards are much better than the ATI 9xxx series and even the X-series (X300, X600, maybe X700) which aren't available in AGP format.\n\nThe 6600GT and 6800 perform roughly the same but finding a 6800 in AGP may be hard to find.  Since 6600GT AGP cards are more abundant, this may be the way to go.\n\nThe upside to all of this is, you won't have to spend all of your $300 as the 6600GT AGP cards go for about $140 at online sites and are a dramatic improvement over the FX5500.


Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the body lacks sufficient thyroid hormone. Since the main purpose of thyroid hormone is to "run the body's metabolism", it is understandable that people with this condition will have symptoms associated with a slow metabolism.\nThere are two fairly common causes of hypothyroidism. The first is a result of previous (or currently ongoing) inflammation of the thyroid gland which leaves a large percentage of the cells of the thyroid damaged (or dead) and incapable of producing sufficient hormone.\nThe second major cause is the broad category of "medical treatments".  If the total mass of thyroid producing cells left within the body are not enough to meet the needs of the body, the patient will develop hypothyroidism.\n\nSymptoms of Hypothyroidism\n\nFatigue\nWeakness\nWeight gain or increased difficulty losing weight\nCoarse, dry hair \nDry, rough pale skin\nHair loss \nCold intolerance (can't tolerate the cold like those around you)\nMuscle cramps and frequent muscle aches\nConstipation\nDepression\nIrritability\nMemory loss\nAbnormal menstrual cycles\nDecreased libido\n..\n\n\nFor the diagonasis and treatment of the disease, you can visit the site:\nhttp://www.endocrineweb.com/hypo2.html


or minopoly to shut down out way of living and how could thay be stopped?

They are doing that in many smaller communities.  Just imagine you owned the local grocery store and are making a good living.  Walmart comes into town, you are out of business.  You will never be able to get the wholesale prices that they get or sell the different products that they are able to.\n\nThey are lowering income levels of the entire community when they move in.  That is according to their own study.\n\nAnother issue with Walmart is how they deal with suppliers.  If you had a farm and sold your produce to Walmart, they will say we need a 20% discount from you.  And if they are you only customer, what do you do?\n\nThey are hard on the community (store owners) they move in and the suppliers.


i herd of bateria in space and i was wondering if alians could be real

It's an open question.  Depends on how you define life, first off.  Assuming you mean earth-like life (reasonable, since we don't have any other type of life to compare to or use an an example) then you might want to consider the Drake equation, which was invented to answer just what you are asking.  Wikipedia has a great description of this equation, along with interpretation of all its parameters.  Scientists have been debating what values to put in to this equation since it was invented; whether or not you predict the existence of aliens will be based on your own value estimates.  Follow the link and figure it out for yourself!


Sometimes it seems like I am meaningless in this life, no one cares about me and my presence is nothing...I am as friendly and nice as can be...What was wrong?

It could be that (1) somehow you choose to be by yourself, (2) that you might be too selfish and only think about yourself instead of giving yourself to others (I have learned that when you are too selfish you tend to make others feel uncomfortable), or (3) that you are doing things that may make you not want to be part of the team by "going against the grain", or (4) you may not be being as friendly to them as possible.


actually i have my exam 2morrow.i just want to know that only i m wasting my time or there are also others like me.

im tryin to see if i can get into the coast guard, ive heard of this today, a answer one way or the other will help of a link where i can find the answer will

I dont know who told you this information, but you may want to start lookin for a new source. The answer is a large NO! The army and coast guard are seperate armed forces. Plus soldiers are not baseball players and cant be traded. But you can put in a request for a discharge to switch to another service. These are not regularly approved though.


assuming that you dont hear them talking.

Koreans tend to have sharper features than japanese, higher cheekbones, and are less likely to have epicanthic folds than Japanese. Also, they tend to have 'flatter' faces than Japanese.  Women also use earth tones - browns - and Japanese women tend to use reds (in lipstick and makeup).  Also, generally korean women tend to be taller, with sharper, more triangular heads - sharp chins, high cheekbones, sharper eyes.  Chinese look different depending on if their ancestry is from northern china or southern china - southern chinese tend to be smaller, browner, and have more rounded features. My fuzzy logic and heuristics work well enough to usually get it right though. When in doubt, listen to the accent. And this only goes for people born and raised in their respective countries.  American born asians get a look all thier own.

What are the possible benefits of implementing a direct democracy and what are the negative effects? Let's assume "direct democracy" means any citizen is allowed (not required) to vote on the passage of any bill made by congress. So congress writes laws and the whole country votes on them. Let's assume there is a safe and secure technological way of accomplishing this, so the focus is on: what happens when you open up the legislative process to everyone?

The major con that the founders were concerned with was that once the populace determines that they can vote money to themselves that would be the end of the democracy.  The body politic rarely has all the facts needed to make a decision.\n\nA democracy doesn't even work in social clubs.  That is why there is some sort of governing body to make specific decisions.\n\nAlso the things that need to be decided are to numerous.  Even those of us who have followed politics since we were 14 get tired of following it on a daily basis.  It's worse for those who don't care.\n\nA democracy can trample on a man's rights more than a republic can, because the majority always rules. Giving no protection to the minority.

we have a friend her husband past away. we moved in so she wouldn't lose her home. we made agreement to split all bills by thirds. weve ended up paying way more than our share. we buy all gro,most of her personal supplies,etc,etc, we hate to move out what should we do? plz help.

wow-i can relate having moved in w/friends a month ago after leaving my husband. be honest and upfront. sit her down w/your facts written out in front of you.\n\nHave a time-line for you to leave if she cannot pay her share. If she's in over her head - offer to help her find subsidized housing/sell her place etc.\n\nIt's awful to lose good friends over money, honesty is the best policy before you and your other half resent her or worse. Good luck and Happy New Years, Pat


First, tell me who is your favorite NCAA basketball team. Then tell me, if your team's coach left tomorrow, and you could replace him with any other NCAA basketball coach in the land, who would it be and why?

Stanford is my favorite team, but Duke's Coach K is the best in the land.


When she says "You Have Changed" what does she mean!!! that she is thinking bout spliting up or we should see other people, she doesn't love me like how she use too!!! etc...

If when the relationship started you wanted to please her (for what ever reason). But now you are together you don't make the effort to show her how you feel, in a way she understands.  \n\nYou can't take affection on trust, it has to be demonstrated.  It might be you are not demonstrating it anymore.


Your credit scores from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax are the most important numbers about you other than you SSN. I can't understand why people don't make payments on time and destroy their credit score.  I see this everyday as I am a loan originator and I can't get people into houses that don't pay their bills!

I can speak from experience here.  I do not have a very high score I think it is in the low 600's.  I think the main reason is that people are still able to get credit while having a score this low.  You may have to pay a higher interest rate but you can still get a car and a house.  I know I have a mortgage and I just refinanced for a slightly lower fixed rate at 4.5% interest.  I don't think that is too bad for someone with below average credit.  We all should care more about our credit. We just have champagne taste on a Boone's Farm budget.


i have read that one of his fellows was crucified instead of Christ because they looked alike

It was really Him.  Remember when He was resurrected, He showed Himself to His disciples.  In the Bible it records that Thomas even felt the marks from the crucifixion:\n\nJohn 20:27\n\n27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.\n\nIn addition, many many people who were living on the American continent after the resurrection of Christ felt the marks from the crucifixion.

There's a formula for volumes of gasses:\n\nPV = nRT.\n\nIf I remember right, P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, T = temperature, and R = molar density, or something molar that is specific to the gas.

They are based on the following things:\n\n1) Items you have purchased from Amazon.\n2) Items you have told Amazon you've purchassed from someone else\n3) Items that you add to your wish list\n4) Items that you've added to your shopping cart, but abandoned in the past.


The union blockaded the south to prevent them from obtaining supplies to carry on the war.  The south had virtually no factories, they were almost all up north.

Didn't the white christians oppressed all the non-whites. And used christianity to get to their point today. If not can someone tell me how then ?

As you know from the terrorist movement among some Islamic extremists, the name of any religion can be abused by evil men. A TRUE Christian is someone who has the love of Jesus Christ in his heart. This comes from a conscience that is at peace with God. This peace can only be procured by faith that Jesus Christ took upon Himself the punishment of your sins by dying on the cross. If you confess to God that you are a sinner who can't save yourself by your own inadequate efforts to meet His perfect standards, but instead you humbly accept what His Son Jesus did as payment for your sins, you will be saved.


I also need to know filing date and document required to attach to the form.


1. what is the best way to fight premature aging.\n2. how can i get a loved one to stop a bad habit.\n3. i need a reliable friend how can i get one.

first, go to the college you want to attend and go to thier financial aid dept. then ask them about any burseries, grants or scholarships for ppeople like you. ( there are lots so give yourself plenty of time)\nfight premature agin- eat whole foods, plenty of rest, lots of water and excersize daily\nfriends bad habit- you cant get them to stop- they have to do it on thier own, just love them and support them and when they are ready to give up thier bad habit they will\nto gain a friend, you have to first BE a good friend.


Actually a friend's website. Legal profession-related service. Want something that is both effective and COST effective. Don't want "just hits", but hits that are appropriate to his service.

Create content for it that is updated regularly, is interesting, and germane to the legal profession, or at least to the customers he might be attempting to lure.


I think Jesus is god...... we worship him and isn't a god something someone worships like the buddists.... they worship budda that is their god

No, Jesus is not God and he is not to be worshipped. Worship to God is to be done THROUGH Jesus because Jesus is the mediator between God and mankind. The Bible makes it very clear that Jesus Christ is not God Almighty. Jesus is the very first of God's creations and the second most powerful being in all the universe. Jesus is a being separate and distinct from his Father and the Bible makes abundantly clear. True Christians follow Jesus' example in directing their worship not to Jesus, but to Jehovah God. \n\nTrue Christians do not adhere to a ridiculous, God-dishonoring teaching of man such as the trinity, which dares to put God and Christ on equal footing, something the Bible doesn't do, nor did Christ.


I'm recently divorced w/ 2 small children\nmy x husband took all our prior clients and prospects\nso I have to start from zero ., it's been hard to market since I have no money for marketing and I can only work until 3pm since I do not have a baby sitter , I could sove this problem once money starts coming in the thing is , how do I start  again, I feel lost, any advice will help \nthank you

Since you built up a client base before you already know it will take time, and MONEY. Not a lot of money, but definitely some. Online you need a website focused on the local market. There are some fantastic emerging technologies within Search marketing for local search. Now is the time to get in and probably beat most of the competition. I would estimate monthly marketing, hosting, and management fees of $75 to $150 to start. Lean towards the high end. Making a name for yourself is vital and establishing your experience without mixing names or smear campaigns is crucial too. I would be glad to help get you back on the high side.

Some look and smile while some just stare & how can I start a convo with such ppl, been a shy girl u know. girls your opinion will be more apreciated.guyz can answer also.

I'm sorry to say, but guys are horny pigs. But that doesn't give them the right to look at you like a piece of meat. \nThese men find you attractive, but they're not understanding how they affect you, with their xray eyes. Get smart with them, walk right up and say "Can I help you? Is there something you want? Cause I got it, but you can't have any!"\nDon't change who you are, don't change the way you dress, don't feel ashamed about the way you look. \nYou are a beautiful person, inside and out, and you should try to find guys who will appreciate your inner beauty too. \nSame goes for you, there are some hot guys out there, but don't give them the time of day, unless there's something beautiful inside of their hearts.


"don't THINK it was broken" Get it looked at by someone who can help know for sure and make sure everything else is OK- minor medical clinic, school nurse, ER, whatever.\n\nMost minor crush injuries (no bone damage, minimal tissue damage) can be dealt with with asprain or other pain reliever, a basic ice program (a few minutes on, longer time off to 'rest', a few minutes on...) to relieve pain and swelling, and not using the injured part.\n\nThe catch to this is that there certainly may be some other issues involved that should be looked at. Do a doctor visit soon and avoid furture problems.


I am building a page, and one of the features is a user submits a form (PHP) with goes into a MySQL database. One of the fields is a URL. When I need to display the results of the form on the HTML page, I need a script that will go out to the URL and take a thumbnail screenshot, and place that image next to the submitted data that I'm displaying. Does anyone have a clue how to do this??? \n\nThanks!

There are no php scripts that can take a screenshot of a website. You can possibly create some integration of your server to launch a web browser and another software that would auto screenshot the browser window. The only thing is, you would want to background this process because it might take some time for the operation to complete. In all, I would say this is a very complicated way of doing things.\n\nI would look at integration with thumbshots.org. You can submit sites for them to thumbnail, and you can dynamically call a website's thumbnail from thumbshots.org.\n\nGood Luck.

how do you get rid of the viruses for free

I would start the answer by the famous quote, "Why do computers get viruses. They're little boxes. They shouldn't." ~ Janelle\n\na virus is a self-replicating program that spreads by inserting copies of itself into other executable code or documents. A computer virus behaves in a way similar to a biological virus, which spreads by inserting itself into living cells. Extending the analogy, the insertion of a virus into the program is termed as an infection, and the infected file (or executable code that is not part of a file) is called a host. Viruses are one of the several types of malicious software or malware.\n\nn order to replicate itself, a virus must be permitted to execute code and write to memory. For this reason, many viruses attach themselves to executable files that may be part of legitimate programs. If a user tries to start an infected program, the virus' code may be executed first. Viruses can be divided into two types, on the basis of their behavior when they get executed. Nonresident viruses immediately search for other hosts that can be infected, infect these targets, and finally transfer control to the application program they infected. Resident viruses do not search for hosts when they are started. Instead, a resident virus loads itself into memory on execution and transfers control to the host program. The virus stays active in the background and infects new hosts when those files are accessed by other programs or the operating system itself.\n\nCheck out this movie on Virus replication :\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9192961636386984286&q=computer+virus\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7821323279275205551&q=virus\n\nALso check out the movie ANTIVIRUS:\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3481400607478146088\n\nThe best Antivirus to prevent Virus Infection is Norton Antivirus, but it is heavy on system and is generally in 60 day trial version forms. I personally like Avast, because it is light weight and is free.\n\nI have a few Free Antivirus programs I can reccomend:\n\nhttp://www.avast.com/ avast!\nhttp://www.free-av.com/ AntiVir HBEDV\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/ AVG Free Edition\n\nAlso, if your willing to experiment:\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/onecare...

from i was child i was overweight my height is about 1.70 m and my weight is about 100kg please help me

Any change in your diet will have an effect, and most will tell you not to diet, but change the way you eat permanently to have long lasting results. Say you:\n-eat what you usually eat, but less of it\n-start incorporating exercise, even just 5 minutes to start if you want, just start doing more than you were\n-find alternatives to what you do eat, instead of pork bacon, opt for turkey bacon(I actually liked it a LOT better!!!), instead of margarine or butter, buy the light kind, small changes...(big ones if you want, but you are more likely to keep up with it if you aren't altering and cutting out EVERYTHING you usually have)\n-try to eat in more instead of dining out as often as you do, or if you do eat out, try the smaller portions\n-Lessen the intake of red meat and opt for more chicken,fish,tuna etc. \n\nI noticed small changes made a great impact, and it was something I could do. I lost ten pounds the first month by just trying to incorporate more activity and consciously making an effort- and it worked. No diets, drugs, etc...\nI hope this helps!

I've been accepted into two colleges, College A and College B. Both are small liberal Arts schools, and off my desired major, but that's where similarities end.\n\nCollege A is closer to home, is a bit more well known, but doesn't have a wide breadth of history courses (That's not my expected major, but I want a lot for electives/dist. requirements) I'm also going to participate in a scholarship competition\n\nCollege B is a bit further away, but still close enough to come home for the holidays, is a bit similar to my old school, has a wide variety of history courses, and is offering a scholarship to me.\n\nJust want your opinions on it. Which do you think I should pick now, or should I wait until the competition is over? They're on equal footing currently.

The one thing I wished I had done was go to a college further away from home.  Although I didn't live at home during college, it's nice to be forced to branch out a little more.  A lot of my friends who went to school out of state have ended up finding better jobs because it forced them to network more, to fight harder to get hired, and they were more comfortable relocating after college.\n\nAlso, if College B has a lot more courses, in general, that would probably be your best bet.  You may change your major when you go to school, even though you may feel strongly about something right now.  But, if you go to a college that offers a lot of courses, then you'll have more options if you change your mind about something.\n\nI think that you should weigh all of the options, decide which school you would pick if scholarships WEREN'T a factor, then participate in the scholarship competition, and if you get the scholarship offers from both schools, choose the one you would pick if you didn't get a scholarship.\n\nGood luck!


My DSL password is in my router and I want to change routers and don't feel like dealing with my ISP's tech support to reset my password.  Is there a way to packet sniff it and how?  I know the router sends it to the modem, could I hook a computer or something up to the router and get it?  If so, how and using what software?

very easy just install tcp/icmp packet sniffer, run this on your network and wait until someone logs in and make sure to have 0 internet activity while you wait.\n\nThe best way to capture passwords for your dsl modem is to run a packet sniffer and call your isp and complain of extremely slow speeds say 10 kbs download and capture the packets when they login.\n\nPresto you now have the login/password to your dsl modem.  Then you can login into it via the 169. ex ip and modify the settings in the firmware itself.\n\nI am not saying do this I am just saying that its possible to gather your password this way in case you " Forgot " it.

Was the Amendment UN-Constitutional because it was not in Pursuance of the Original Constitution?

The constitution specifically says, "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate."\n\nThey clearly anticipated these amendments modifying the original document. In fact, many of the amendments have revised the original. Changing the election of Senators and Representatives to popular election, changing the way the number of representatives was calculated, changing the day Congress convenes, and allowing income tax are just a few of the major revisions to the original that have come about by the amendments.

I feel that I have good, viable ideas and concepts for adventure/reality/documentary/home improvement type of shows. \n\n1.) What is the best procedure for getting the ideas in front of an individual or company that would turn my concept into a real program or show? \n\n2.) How do I find these individuals, companies?\n\n2.) What is the legal procedure used to copyright, patent, protect and keep confidential these type of intellectual concepts, ideas, etc?

That's a huge set of questions, with a loooooong set of answers. I suggest a book called "Writing Treatments that Sell" by Kenneth Atchity-- real, solid advice for people in your situation.\n\n1) Write a treatment for each idea.\n\n2) Hollywood Creative Director, which is available in both book and online versions. Another (cheaper) option is to research programs you feel are similar in tone and contact the production companies involved.\n\n3) Register your treatments with the WGA.


looks at it.\n\n\nBut I'm finding that there are confilcts over who said it originally.  I have found both Emerson and Thoreau as being quoted.


It's so simple, that it becomes hard, to some. We were taught that the word HELL, as being negative, and the word HEAVEN, as being positive! So.., why do you continue promoting HELLo ? There is HI, YES, and MAY I HELP YOU? This latter greetings do not promote or convey negative connotations.    www.heaveno.com

Language is an interesting thing.\n\nIt is quite possible to have two very, very similar sounding words with very different meanings.  Consider "heaven"  - would you get especially positive connotations from someone named "Evan" just because they sound the same?\n\nNo, we are not taught that the WORD "Hell" has negative connotations.  It is the CONCEPT, not the sounds.  Sounds are not magic, and where words do have magic it is from the meaning behind them, not the sounds.\n\nAnd if you are going to get hung up on sounds, hello comes not from "hell" but from "hallo", which sounds like Halo, which is a good thing, right?\n\nOf course from where I come from "hell" sounds more like "halo" than "hello"! But then, we're more likely to say "Howdy!" anyway.\n\nBTW, your URL looks like "heave no" to me.  I'd be inclined to think it was a natural anti-emetic, not a religious site.


Have developed a small sore spot on my scalp, somewhere above the ear. It is a very small area and hurts on touch.There is very little evidence of a change taking place in the feel of the skin, and no discolouration.

Just to be on the safe side, I would have it checked out by a dermatologist. You can never be too safe when it comes to identifying potential trouble areas with your skin.


Has anyone seen those sites where they give a pic of a celeb and you stretch and pull it and make their faces look really funny...yeah does anyone know if and how I can recreate something like this on a personal site or on myspace?

what program are you using?  windows 98 is the operating system.  Are you using word or are you using internet explorer?  each program have different reasons why something doesn't work.  like on the internet, you cant cut something if it is part of the web page.  and paste wount be there because you haven't cut or copied anything yet.  if it is in one of microsoft office programs, like word excel, it might be as simple as not having something highlighted.  try to be more specific.

I sprained my ankle training for a marathon during the summer & it still hurts to run.  How come it's taking so long to heal & are there any exercises I can do to help it along faster?

If an ankle sprain does not heal correctly, the joint may become unstable, resulting in a weakened and easily reinjured ankle. Proper initial care of your sprained ankle is critical. A compression wrap helps decrease swelling. If swelling is kept to a minimum, you will heal faster and get back on your feet sooner. Applying a compression wrap is easy and can be done at home. Elastic bandages are inexpensive and available at most drugstores. A protective brace can be worn over a compression wrap if you try to bear weight on your injured ankle. A compression wrap, such as an elastic ACE bandage, can hold the ankle in place and protect it from further injury. It also helps decrease swelling. A compression wrap should be worn for the first 24 to 36 hours.\nAlso, try soaking it in hot water and epsom salts. I sprained both of mine playing football.


I am planning on going into Special Ed. EI at the secondary level.  I do not have a job for the winter and I'm commuting to a University.  \n\nDoes anyone know the job requirements or know of a website that can give me the requirements on becoming a teacher's aide (particularly for a special ed. classroom)?  Not only will it give me a job, but it's something that I'm interested in and something that will benefit me for the future.

It appears that teachers aides in Michigan need a high school diploma. Here is the Michigan Civil Service Job Description for Teacher's Aides:\nhttp://www.michigan.gov/documents/TeacherAide_13051_7.pdf#search='michigan%20teachers%20aide%20qualifications'\n\nBUT, the No Child Left Behind Act has made it a requirement that teacher's aide meet the "highly qualified paraprofessional" standard if they assist with reading, writing or math in a Title 1 school (a school that has a high percentage of children who qualify for Title 1 reading assistance). Highly qualified means you must meet one of the following standards:\n\na.  Complete at least 60 hours credit toward a college diploma; or \nb.  Obtain an associate’s (or higher) degree; or \nc.  Demonstrate, through a formal academic assessment test, knowledge of and the ability to assist in instructing reading, writing, and mathematics (or, as appropriate, reading, writings, and mathematics readiness). \n\n\nMichigan has a test that you can take if you haven't met one of the educational requirements. \n\nRead all the details on this, including a worksheet to see how the educational requirements apply to you at:\nhttp://www.michigan.gov/documents/FAQ_-_paras_83927_7.doc\n\nIts a little confusing with the No Child Left Behind Act. Your local school district will be happy to help you understand the requirements. Call the Personnel or Human Resources department and ask.\n\nHope this helps!

My bf has been with me for two years, i'm a chunky girl, this whole time hes been telling me that he loves chunky women  but now he says that hes been lying to me he only likes skinny women but i was nice.. i dont get it.. why would he want to be with me if chunky women turn him off, why would he get with me just to cheat on me with skinny girls?

First, if he's cheating dump him.  You don't need that regardless of how "chunky" you are. \n\nAs to the general question of how a man might end up with someone not normally his "type,"  it does happen that way sometimes.  The more you care for someone, the more attractive they become in your eyes.  When you love a person, the fact that they may not fit a "type" becomes irrelevant. I like tall, thin, redheads with fair skin and freckles.  My wife, whom I adore, is short and plump, with brown hair and not a freckle to be seen.


The APA, Surgeon General, NAMI can't give: 1. Evidence that establishes the validity of "schizophrenia" "depression" or other "mental Illness" as a biological-brain based disease, 2.Evidence for a physical diagnostic exam such as a scan or test of the brain, blood, urine, genes, etc that can reliably distinguish individuals diagnoses (prior to treatment with medications), from individuals without these diagnoses, 3. Evidence for a Base-line Standard of a neurochemically balanced "normal" personality, against which a neurochemical "imbalance" can be measured and corrected by pharmaceutical means, 4. Evidence that any Psychotropic Drug can correct a "chemical imbalance" attributed to a psychiatric diagnoses, and is any thing more than a non-specific alterer of physiology, 5.Evidence that any Psychotropic Drug can reliably decrease the likelihood of violence or suicide, 6.Evidence that Psychotropic Drugs do not increase the overall likelihood of violence and suicide. http://home.earthlink.net/~people-of-courage/

I have been through a series of psychiatrists and many many drug combinations and have experienced many strange side effects that my shrinks claim to never have heard of. So no as far as the popular idea of science I believe it is quackery... I often feel like I am part of an experiment on a very grand scale. The early death, toxicity, disease that I may or may not experience has been ignored because so often people with MI have no one to advocate for them in any truly threatening way i.e., impacting pocketbooks...Their is no test that can be run to tell what disease I have... It is all self-report or observation   which becomes filtered through life experience....High paid quacks I say.


Hi there :)\n\nI accidently hit a glass fluorescent tube that was laying on a shelf in my office probably around 11PM - had to go somewhere though, so I just left it on the floor (it's split into two pieces now).  Upon getting back (about 3 hours later I'd say?), I started looking up how to clean the broken tube up - because I thought that I heard something that was dangerous involved with doing so.\n\nWell - from what I've read it's extremely dangerous to do so .. and that you shouldn't even attempt it yourself.  It's really just one light (it has not had power to it in at least a week...) -  it's just broken into two pieces on the floor (which is carpet).  With it being cold, I read that any mercury inside would be liquid, which would spread and contaminate anything around it.\n\nSo my question is: Should I be worried?  Or is all this just public safety hype, and can I just go on an at least get it out of my office into the (unused) garage?

You've read something completly wrong. Even if the mercury were liquid, which it isn't in this case, it would evaporate. The small amount in a lamp isn't enough to worry about and posses no health risks. Mercury is a strange metal in that it acts like liquid. That includes wanting to evaporate.\n\nNot getting cut on the glass is the real problem.


If you put both solutions in the kitchen freezer would the salt ice be colder than the water one, \nor would the salt solution stay liquid?

If you were able to get the salt solution cold enough, it would freeze. However, if you put two ice trays side by side, one filled with water, the other filled with salt water, and chilled them to the point where both froze, the would both be the same temperature. However, once the cold was taken away, the salt solution would melt at a much lower temperature than the water only cubes.\n\nWhat salt does when added to water is decrease the temperature at which water will freeze -- as well as melt. How much the freezing/melting point is lowered depends on how much salt is added. The higher the concentration, the lower the freezing/melting point.

I want an easier way of getting rid of the index.dat files that seem to be chock full of cookies and the 'Temporary Internet Files' folder.  There are files in there that are 'super hidden' and always being accessed by some process so I can't remove them.\n\nThe only way I know how to completely remove these files is to login to another admin account to delete them from the original profile directory... and seems to me the last time I tried that it failed to work on the index.dat files too!!  Also I tried ending the explorer.exe process so I could delete them from the cmd window but it failed.

Those and lots other security issues can easily be fixed by installing and running CCleaner. It can be downloaded and used free.

Why is saying Merry Christmas such a big deal??  I know that it's really about seperation between church and state, but why is Christianity being attacked??  Do those who are "anti-Christmas" not realize that Holiday means "holy day"??  Is it going to become New Year's Break??  Or will Veteran's Day no longer be a holiday but a "day of celebration"??  Does this all seem stupid to any of you?

MERRY CHRISTMAS...It's ridiculous that anyone gets offended by it.  If someone were to tell me Happy Kwanza, or Happy Hannukah, I wouldn't get offended either.  It's obviously something that person believes in, and they are trying to wish me the best.  There's no harm in it, whether I believe in it or not.


And if you did, what did they tell you to do?  This problem is bothering me a lot and I'm not sure if I should go to the doctor about it or not.

I've never had them, but floaters that are just simply annoying, treatment is not necessary.  If they are so dense and numerous that they affect your vision, then you should see your doctor.  If you suddenly see new floaters, or eye floaters accompanied by flashes of light or peripheral vision loss, it could indicate serious conditions such as diabetic retinopathy; vascular abnormalities such as retinal hemorrhages or carotid artery disease, or the beginning of a retinal detachment.  In this case you should also see your doctor.


Hi everybody,\n\nI used to live in Antioch, CA. It was a little difficult to deal with the local weather, because of the dryness, and local allergies. However, I just recently moved to North Aurora, IL, I am doing well so far. Now, in two years a will have the opportunity to have a job relocation and move to Austin, TX (Round Rock in fact). Thanks for answering. By the way if you have a dream place to leave, let me know. ;-)\n\nPlease recommend,\n\nLove Yahoo!!!\n\nTC

With only $5000 shoot for a cheaper stock you expect to grow. Environmental stocks are good because the US must wake up to the necessity for alternative energy, and soon. In the 10 to 15 dollar range choose either ESLR or DESC.

I can post a thank you in my weekly newsletter but think it is a bit unpersonal.  I would like to send thank you notes but I know that less than half the class donated to this gift fund and am unsure who did participate?  What is the proper way to handle this?

In the newsletter, write "To those who donated, the class and myself are very greatful for your contribution, and I'm sure I can rely on everyone's support when needs arise in the future."


I like the mobileness, but I like the power and affordability of PC's.

Depends what you want it for. I have a laptop, and I love it to death. It's awesome being able to take it to class, being able to move it around and network it on a moment's notice, etc.\n\nBut, at the same time, it's really difficult to try to upgrade a laptop, unless you really know your computers, and laptops tend to be more vulnerable to maintenance problems.\n\nPC's are going to be cheaper, more powerful, and more user friendly as far as upgrading and maintenance goes. Really, the only thing you lose on is the mobility, so I guess you just have to ask yourself how important that is to how you're going to use it.


My index finger is turning down. I can't straighten it. I can barely write my name now. I don't have alot of pain except one place on my arm if it it has pressure and it is a terrible pain! I am losing the muscle in my arm. My hand and arm look so different from the other one. It is much smaller than my left. This has been getting worse each day for the past 10 months.Please answer if you have any idea and can help me.

Yes, go to see a doctor.  Don't wait 10 more months.


I've always known love to be a figment of our imagination is that true.?

Love is a chemical reaction.  Not a figment of your imagination.


I have been with this guy since May... I am really not his girlfriend but I might as well be.. he says little stuff like "you know you love me" and all that stuff.. but he will not actuallycome out and say it... I am so confused!

Most people never know if they are loved or if they love someone.  It is not like humans turn colors if they love someone else.  Love is a force which attracts or binds beings together.  People can be attracted to each other without ever being consciously aware of what is going on.  This guy could love you passionately and never even know it (and this is the case more often than not).\n\nLove is also an emotion.  An empath can feel the emotions of others and would know that this person is feeling love for someone.  Most people have some empathic ability (those strange hunches that have no basis in objective reality).  It could be that you are confuse because you feel that he is attracted to you, and he may even act like it, but he does not verbalize it.\n\nIt is possible that he feels this consciously but it is a new emotion and he does not recognize what it is.  It could be that he knows how he feels but cannot communicate it to you (for whatever reason).  Have you tried to tell him that you are confused and that you have feelings for him?  It takes two to form a relationship.  It might only take one to start one.


I was watching a religious program where this guy quoted the Bible...

After the Bible, the next step was the Magna Carta signed in 1215 in England.  The king in order to keep his position was forced to sign it
