can't you retake GCSE's when you're slightly? can you retake degrees?

Although it is true that GCSEs can be retaken, it is also true that GCSEs are designed for 16 year olds and not for adults.  It is a real pain in the backside for an adult to retake a GCSE because nearly all of them nowadays involve coursework.  It's not as sinple as just retaking an exam.\n\nIf you are 18 or over, I would suggest that you contact your local FE college or adult education centre who can give you information on the range of courses available that would be more suitable for adults.\n\nThe range of qualifications available can be quite daunting, so I suggest you understand the National Qualifications Framework and use this as a reference.\n\nA Level One qualification is the standard expected from good 14 year old.\n\nA Level Two qualification is the equivalent of an A-C grade at GCSE (i.e. a good 16 year old)\n\nA Level Three qualification is the equivalent of an A Level (a good 18 year old).\n\nLevel Three qualifications carry UCAS points and UCAS points count towards university entry.\n\nThe possibility of resitting a degree would, I would guess, depend entirely on the university.

i don't think it's related to any skin problems. my neck is slightly darker than my face although they are equally exposed to the sun.is it because of the make up products i use?or is it something else?

if its very dark then u should go to a good skin doctor .and if its not so dark then its normal because i do have n many people have it .wat happens is that its not an open side for sunligth as ur face do or may because of u will wash ur face a lot than ur boby .or because of sweat .


MS Project managment would not work.  I am looking for somthing that has a good way of following all of the daily and ongoing projects and tasks to keep myself organzied and provide my boss a means of keeping informed and apprised of the status of my progress.

Why would MS Project not work ?  It's essentially designed to do what you're looking for.\n\nThere are other similar, but more basic tools out there.  I've included a link to project management software tools.  Some of these are subscription based - some are web-based, which may or may not help.  Some will be much more that you need.\n\nMost poeople who don't want to use a PM tool end up using Excel.


Please show your process!!! I want to know how you did it!! \n\n1. Evaluate: sin 1/3 pie (the symbol "pie" is to replace the words "pie")\n2. Evaluate: cos pie\n3. Evaluate: cos 1/4 pie\n4. Evaluate: sin 1/4 pie\n\n27. Use special right triangles to find the coordinates of the point of interesection of the angle 315 degrees and the unit circle. Express your answer in fractions and radicals when necessary. \n\nLast question!!!! Please help!!!! It's the same as the question above, but instead of 315 degrees, it is 135 degrees!! Please help me in solving ALL these problems!! It would really help me in completing this 200 problem WRKSHT!! If I know how to do each of these problem, i could do the RESt!!

Switch your calculator from degrees (DEG) to radians (RAD). That should do the trick. \nHere are some quick trig rules you need to know:\nIn radians just remember that pi is 180 degrees. Pi/3 is 60 degrees, pi/2 is 90, pi/4 is 45 degrees and so on. \nIn a unit circle, the hypotenuse is always 1.\nSin is always the far side away from the angle (the vertical side). We call that the opposite side.\nCos is always the adjacent side (or horizontal side).\nIn a right triangle with angles 60 and 30, the shortest side is always 1/2 the hypotenuse, so in a unit triangle, it is just 1/2. You can use the pathagorean theorem to find that the longer side is the square root of (3/4), or (sqrt(3))/2.\nIn a right triangle with angles 45 and 45, the opposite and adjacent sides are equal, and we can use the pathagorean theorem to find that the sides are the square root of (1/2), or 1/(sqrt(2)).\n\n1. Sin 1/3 pi. This is the same as sin pi/3 which is a 60 degree angle. If you draw the triangle on a unit circle you would see that the opposite side is the longer side of a 90/60/30 triangle. We have seen above that the length is (sqrt(3))/2.\n\n2. Cos pi. Easy. pi is 180 degrees, so draw the unit circle. You see that it is just a striaght horizontal line going the other way so the answer is -1.\n\n3. cos pi/4 is a 45 degree angle. We know from above that both sides have to be 1/(sqrt(2)).\n\n4. sin pi/4. Same as #3.\n\n27. What is 315 degrees? Well draw your unit circle. Go, 90, then to 180, then to 270, then go 45 more degrees and you will end up at 315 degrees. Draw your triangle. We know that the hypotenuse is 1, so the coordinates will simply be, (cos 315, sin 315). Cos 315 is just a 90/45/45 triangle in the bottom right quadrant so the adjacent side is positive. The opposite is negative, so you end up with coordinates (1/(sqrt(2)), -1/(sqrt(2))). Do the same to solve the last question youeself.


This is in reference to the renal calcified mass question.

You can even simply type in Renal Calcified Mass in your tool bar and it will lead you to sites that say Renal Cancer.


U.S.-trained Iraqis working both sides\n \n\n\nWhite House Press. April 29 (UPI) -- U.S. troops training Iraqis in policing and security measures are encountering trainees who use their new skills to attack them, The Washington Post reports.\n\nMost recently in the predominantly Sunni Muslim town of Hawijah, 175 miles north of Baghdad, a U.S. convoy discovered a fishing line strung across a road linked to an old Russian artillery shell. Not far off were four U.S.-trained Iraqi policemen who claimed they knew nothing about it, the report said. It seems many of the Iraqi troops trained by the USA turn against the American Military. This is serious says one Marine. No way can we win states another Marine.

Well, that what you get when you think you can get accurate and unbiased war reporting from a newspaper that does not have any reporters in Iraq.


I am looking to find organizations that give grants to religious based nonprofit organizations.  If anyone knows of any organization that offers any grants for this purpose it would be most helpful.

Your best bet is to seek for private grants or grants from private foundations.\n\nThe best resource for this is Foundation Center http://www.fdncenter.org . They have a very good database covering all organizations giving grants and you can find foundations that are interested in supporting your type of cause. However, it's a subscription based website ($19.95 per month I think is the cheapest subscription price). But it certainly is worth the fee. You can subscribe one month, and make sure you get all the info you need and then stop the subscription.\n\nIf you want to try federal sources, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. \n\nCFDA has several ways to search for grants. I suggest you search by beneficiary and select Private Non Profit Organization and you can find listings of grants available http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.BROWSE_BENEF_RPT.show\n\n\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html


The masses and coordinates of three spheres are as follows: 47 kg, x = 1.6 m, y = 0 m; 34 kg, x = -1.6 m, y = 0 m; 110 kg, x = 0 m, y = 1.1 m

no idea...but I think you use the formula (Gravitational constant x mass 1 x mass 2) / distance squared


If meet someone for the 1st time and they were in a bad mood or not feeling good, would u always assume that how they really are when u see them again? This has happen with me b 4 I have been a bad mood when someone 1st met me, but when they met me again I was the funniest, kindest person they couldn't believe I was the same person, they said it was like I did a 1-80

You kind of answered it for yourself. It might be everlasting if you don't see that person much. But they might be in a good/bad mood when your introduced to them, and in a bad/good mood next time you see them.


How many men actually like it. \nHint (on your knees)

If you are referring to the mans mouth looking like a glazed doughnut.....I personally love it, and knowing the pleasure it gives her makes it that much hotter for me.  To each his own but to me its the breakfast of champions.


How does solution stoichiometry and product yield production relate to the ecological and economic world???

When performing a chemical reaction you want to use as little of each material to generate the quantity of material you need, with as little waste as possible.\n\nFor example:\n\nHCl + NaOH -> NaCl + H2O\n\nYou are using 1 mole of HCl and 1 mole of NaOH to generate 1 mole of salt and 1 mole of water, therefore stoichiometryt is 1:1.  This is the stoichiometry.  \n\nThe reaction:\n\nH2SO4 + 2NaOH -> Na2SO4 + 2H2O\n\nThe stoiciometry is 1 mole of H2SO4 and 2 moles of NaOH, therefore 1:2\n\nStoichiometry is the relative amounts of each reagent you use in a reaction.\n\nIf you were to use:\n\n2HCl + NaOH -> NaCl + H2O + HCl\n\nYou are using 2 moles of HCl and 1 mole of NaOH to generate the same thing, but you have an excess of HCl left over.  This is yield.  The yield of this experiment in relation to HCl would be 50%, since you have only consumed half of it, the rest is waste.  With respect to NaOH the yield is 100% since you have used all of it.  The yield of the reaction though is 100% as it is always based on the limiting reagent.\n\nThe product yield is the amount of product you recover based on a theoretical maximum.  In the first example above, and assuming you did the reaction on a 1 mole scale, you should recover 1 mole of NaCl (57.5g) and 1 mole of H2O (18g).  If you only recovered 30g of NaCl, then the yield of the reaction is 30 / 57.5 = 52.2%.\n\nNo chemical reaction is perfect so getting 100% return is rarely possible, although we do get very close occasionally in industry.\n\nEcologically the less EXCESS of reagent you can put into a reaction to maximise the recovery limits the amount of material going to waste, which has an impact on the environment.  Economically the less EXCESS of reagent you need, means it costs less to prepare a compound.\n\nWhen pharmaceutical companies make drugs they spend millions on materials.  Cutting down by 10% how much of everything they need can save hundreds of thousands of pounds per year / per drug on excess materials expenditure, increased environmental exposure etc.  Chemical companies spend 100's of thousands of pounds a year disposing of excess chemicals safely, recycling chemicals etc and are liable to very heavy fines if they don't.  Many savings can be made just by improving stoichiometries and product yields.\n\nLast year I spent over $1 million on chemicals, by improving stoichiometries and yields by 10% this alone saves an enormous amount of money.\n\nI hope this helps?


ok so acouple weeks later i invited one to a sleepover and she got really annoing. so i got to see the real her. then i was like what do i do ignore her and find a different friend. well unfortunetly i couldnt do that cause im too nice! so then i met this other girl she was nice at first then i invited her to a sleepover and i got to see the real her and now she is really annoying.then i was like what do i do cause i have like 5 periods w/ her at school and i just cant ditch her. so when i started to do somethiung in dance she said no your doing it wrong and this other gfirl just laughed and i felt so mad at her! then the other thing is that their names aer the same thats probably my problem. maybe all megans are annoying? what do you think? i mean i dont know what to do!! do i ditch them and find new friends or what i have no idea what to do. another thing is that one megan changed her emailto alohadarling474 and you know she probably wouldnt have done that is i didnt come from hawaii

Not all Meagan's are annoying. I have known a few that were pretty kool. Would be nice if a name could warn us off. However, you are going to have to quit being so nice. Lay everything on the line. Tell them both how you feel. If that don't work, totally ignore them both. If they talk to you, look the other way, or start up another conversation with some one else. Asked to be moved to the other side of the room in the 5 classes you share with the one. Good luck. Hope I helped.


What does technology really contribute to us and how does we contribute to technology?\nHoe does it really help human kind?


I know that Geminis are supposedly compatabile with other air signs and most fire signs, however I heard that the Virgo sticks out like a sore thumb as the only non air-fire sign that can also be compatabile with a Gemini. Is this true? Why is it so? \nFYI_I am a Gemini...but you already knew that. lol

Virgos and Gemini can be very compatible some of the time. At other times, it can just be a terribly annoying situation. It's kind of half and half - youre a Gemini & you don't understand that? LOL\n\nVirgos and Gemini both like to be analytical, but Gemini are more into being the center of attention, being entertained and finding amusement. Both Gemini and Virgos tend to have great levels of imagination. Virgo people often consider themselves to be more serious than Gemini. Sometimes Virgo can be very fascinated, amused and captivated by the interests and actions of a Gemini. The other half of the time, Virgo might just can't stand it anymore because these things are just wasting valuable time or resources.\n\nThe majority of Virgo people I know are frugal whereas the majority of Gemini people I know are the opposite. This can definitely be a deterrent in a romantic relationship.\n\nCaligirl, please understand I am smiling all the way thru this. I am Virgo. I have several wonderful longterm non-romantic relationships with Gemini people, male and female. In almost all of these relationships there is time out where we just have to make space and not deal with each other because one has gotten on the others last nerve (& that happens with both Gemini or Virgo). I have also seen a couple of absolutely disastrous love/hate relationships between other Virgo/Gemini couples  With that in mind though, I would never purposely get into a romantic situation with a Gemini.


I feel i need a religious friend  to talk with.\ncan anyone help me,how can i do it?\n~peace

I'm here but may be I'm not from the same religion


For me it would have to be either, Anti-No where Leage-Scum and Us Bombs-Tora Tora Tora. How about you?


if you have any experience please feel free to share.

Well - I'm a massage therapist and physical therapist with over 15 years of experience.  I think it depends upon the therapist/patient or client relationship - I have always been professional and never had any problems.  I am also married with one son - I think that makes guys feel safe.  I think it also depends upon how much pain or discomfort you are in - if you need help and are in a lot of pain and know that I could help you, wouldn't you be willing to put those feelings aside?


Well my life has somthing missing I don't know what though. I need a friend so will some one contact me at banana_buddy917@yahoo.com OR buddy_banana917@yahoo.com. There is nothing to do here and my life is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boring so what could I do? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRI wish I knew what was missing in my life maybe I have depression Wil you please answer this question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there's really nothing wrong with u babe... u just need some action / adventure and there are lots of activities that u can try like sports, hiking, camping, climbing etc.. or u can also learn a new hobby like pot-making or anything that interests u... it is also good if u join a club and meet new friends... SO GO OUT AND LIVE UR LIFE TO THE FULLEST... THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN BEING BORED... CHALLENGE YOURSELF AND BEAT THAT BLUES AWAY! (SMILE BUDDY)\n:-)

Serious mutual flirting for 2 months, then a job change looming so I wrote a note admitting my feelings (after the job change).  This person has not responded at all. We aren't kids, over 25 years old.  Why would someone show interest and then disappear when the other one expressed attraction?\n\nAnd please guys, if you ever have a girl tell you they are interested, have the decency to respond, even if it's a "thanks but no thanks".

Just goes to show who of the 2 was the muture one.  At least you told the person how you felt, the fact that there was not reply, that is their loss for they lost what may have been a great relationship with someone.


if i wer to ask myself,,,,,i wud say that i become shy infront of girls,,,,,,,but i know im not at all an introvert in real life,,,my frends,,,and anyone who knows me tell that i have a great sense of humour,,,,,im 6'.......and im quite fun to hang out with. maybe im trying to hard or tryin to be heard! ,,, but i want to hav a second opinion ,,,maybe a lot  more than that.

Okay, many women like tall guys, like I do, but there's more to height. But you did mention your inner qualities, and I don't think you should worry too much. There is a person [actually, more than one!!] for everyone, I believe, and it is just the case that you have not met that person / those people. I have a similar problem. But, you must have a positive attitude, get out and expose yourself - online or get out and interact socially. One cannot meet others without interaction. And be yourself. Do not change who you are fundamentally. Just change your outlook, and expectations, and you'll run into her soon enough! Good luck, my tall one!


Can someone tell me the month day & year.

There are actually varying dates, depending on the coin. I'd say it became totally official on July 30, 1956 when it was signed as our national motto. Of course, it started appearing in various forms on our mints as far back as April 22, 1864.\n\nI used a US Treasury web site. Never knew it went that far back. I thought it was from the 1950's. Love this stuff!


this story was told to a friend and we want to know is there a statue of a woman strapped to the under side of the horse

No. This is a complete urban legend.  Sicily is traditionally a very Catholic region and even if there had been one years ago (liek the Roman era), it would have been removed years and years ago. I've been all over Italy several times and I've never heard of such a thing anywhere else, either.


It makes people feel better about them selves to recycle, like when they cut down a forest to build a subdivision that there home is in, to make up for it they buy a hybrid to go along with their Chevy Yukon. The benefits are never enough.

Can you believe it?He brot his new bimbow to where i work so i could see them to gether.she look like trash!short skirt so short i could see her ass when she bend over.she not even have enough boobs to fall out of a shirt.and she tell him all the time what to do. she dont respect him at all.what does he see in her?how could he replace me so fast?did i mean nothing to him?i look better and treat him better but he treat her better than he treated me.why do guys do this?

He has lowered his standards because he has lost a woman of your caliber. He knows he can't hold on to a woman as good as you. Maybe he will see the error of his ways and come crawling back and it will be your turn to make him feel bad. He is still trying to hurt you and he needed a comparison between you and his new bimbo. You are better than that and you know it. So does he. Stay strong lady. There is someone out there who will treat you right and love you for who and what you are. You don't need him and the pain he causes.


If he acts like that he is probally not even worth a second glance. I know it can be hard, but I know that some day your own Orlando Bloom will go up to you and let you know how much he loves you! :)\n\nHope this works!

we've been e-mailing each other for a month or so., and i can not get him out of my mind. he asked me to come visit him ? should i?

Jea, at the risk of sounding like your father, I would advise you NOT to visit.  No, not for the usual “perverts online” reasoning, but for a purely practical line of thought.\n\nConsider the possibilities:\n(1) The person is, indeed, the perfect match.  If this is the case and the two of you are truly meant for each other, nothing will keep you apart any longer than necessary.  But this can also mean that he can come to you when the time is right.  Love has a way of “making thing happen.”  Love never has to feel rushed.\n(2) The person is not “the one” but is experienced enough to know how to “talk” to you.  This person might suggest getting together for selfish reasons, not for love.  These people will always have a good excuse as to why they cannot come to you, but you must come to them.  It tells them how well they have you “hooked.”\n(3) The person has much in common with you, but what you are feeling is Romance, not Love.  The only way to sort this out is continuing the relationship over a longer time.  Romance fades, Love does not.\n\nJust email?  No phone calls?  No letters?  Never a single flower delivered?  Allow a progression to take place.  Experience the closeness and do not allow fantasy to rule over reality.\n\nIf you feel that you just have to meet this person, do it in a public place, during the daytime, in a neutral location.  Do not go alone.  Go with a friend or two.  Let others know in advance what you are doing.  If you are in your 20’s or older, that is one thing.  If you are still a teen, seriously consider your experience and the life choices involved.


COuld A kid with a Mulatto Mom And A White Father still turn out to have a black skin color or look black or either mixed.

yes, it depend on the genetics of the parents.  If the skin color gene for melanin is dominant then the child will have some or little melanin.  The child can even look like the mom's black parent. it's Genetics.  You can tell if a child is mixed or not.  People of color comes in all shades to pale pink to blue black.  I person with to black parents can have a child that fair skin. remember both parents are black and their parents are black.  We all are mixed.  NO One is pure.


I have a hard time breaking, although I can feel it swelling up sometimes until it's unbearable. Sometimes I think it's just man's pride, and being tough about it. But even when I know it's the healthy thing to do I have a hard time getting to that point, and sometimes never do.

I don't know if this is supposed to be a guy's problem...but my mother and I share the same problem. My mother is a little more severe in that aspect, though.\n\nI've never, ever seen her cry in my entire life. I can swear by that. Not even her eyes watering. She's an extremely tough, strong woman who'd never let the 'weakness' (she thinks its a weakness) of crying show in front of her children.\nI have no doubt she cries to herself at nights. But I've never seen her crying, and no matter how hurtful or great the situation is, she never breaks down. SHe's always tight-lipped and tension lines streak across her tired face, but there's never a tear.\nMy dad once commented to her, "I feel like I've married a man."\nI take that as a sort of compliment, that my mom, after having gone through several life crisises that wouldn't probably sent a whole family off a building or through the noose, she plough through it all, all without shedding a tear.\nAs for me, you can expect that because of her perception that crying is a weakness, I became somewhat eager to live up to her expectations (while my sister and brothers are whiny sobs...ok, well, they just cry a whole lot more, my sister being the worse.) and I became somewhat 'conditioned' not to cry.\nThough since I've had a fiance, he's been trying to encourage me not to be so 'angry', 'uptight' and close up all my feelings, I find it's helped a little, but I find it so hard to just 'let it go'.\nFor example, I was very close to my grandma. When she passed away because of breast cancer (she also had several stomach ulcers because she kept skipping meals to save money even though we were really well-off. SHe did it without our knowledge, because she came from extreme poverty with 8 kids single-handedly raised, and saving money no matter how was crucial to survival.), I was distraught, but I didn't cry.\nIt was an open coffin funeral. I remember seeing her lying in there dressed in new clothes, her eyes closed, like she was asleep. But she looked a little worried, I thought.\nI never shed a tear, I tried, I even closed my eyes and tried to run all the fond memories through my head of my beloved gran but not a tear could be shed.\nI was so...crushed. I felt like a robot. I still do. I find my emotions just swelling up inside.\n\nThe only 3 people who'd ever made me actually cry was my mother (she can be so hurtful at times, she was the first one who hurt my feelings during my childhood so much I curled up in the closet and cried.), my best friend (though we broke up long ago, she really was selfish and self-absorbed.) and my fiance (we've had a few big fights. He cried when he saw me cry. :|).\n\nI can understand it must be really frustrating, but for me, I realised we don't cry because a certain button in us has to be pushed.\nYou would know...have you ever thought or talked about a certain topic which you felt overwhelming emotion about? That's the button. One day, I suggest you sit down in a quiet spot where you can contemplate, and search that button and push it.\nYou might find that the tears that come out, might feel rather liberating.\n\n\nJenova\n(d.yuffie@gmail.com)

The Vox New College Spanish & English Dictionary (1995 printing) has virgin as the first word in the definition list for the Spanish word doncella. As far as derivatives of the term, doncellería is defined in this same dictionary first as virginity, and doncel as virgin man. The English word virgin is defined in Spanish as virgen, doncella. Doncella is simply a lesser-known synonym primarily meaning “female virgin.”

No need to memorize, just have an idea where to get the answer, when it seems to be just at the tip of your tongue.\nReview speedily three days before exams.\nSpeed read your notes 10 to 30 minutes before exams.\nRelax. Do not think about cheating. Just answer what you can. Remember, teachers have a job to do, too. Your failure is also their failure.\n\nThose were my tricks in College and I got accelerated. I have an average intelligence.


At the time we met he was doing training at my old post and we thought we would loose touch w/ each other. But, damn hes unforgettable (great lover) and so i made sure i didnt loose touch w/ him and we've gotten to know each other since we first met. hes a great guy.

Of course.  it sounds like you two have all the ingredients for relationship stew.  great sex, great communication, and great personality.  you'd be a fool to just let the opportunity slide by when some people never get the chance at all.


Long story but my daughter suffers from night terrors and i have been told that she could possibly be speaking to spirits.\nI have tried everything including rosary under the bed. i have'nt blessed the house though.\nOKAY the question is knowing that, my daughter and I are constantly surrounded by bees and wasps. we are the ONLY house on our street that has a hive in her bedroom window, one inside our telephone box, backyard window and they have even landed on her head and my shoulder with other people in plain sight. I need to know if im missing a significance.\nbtw my baby is 2 years old.

I am no authority by any stretch, however, my daughter and I share a similar connection to you.  We have not had the bee/wasp connection, but the spiritual connection most def.  You may be experiencing a bee problem through a spirit connection demonstrating in a bee problem.  We have had spirit problems over the years in various ways (usually haunted houses)...it is too lengthy to list here, but if you are interested, e-mail me and I will list  our experiences.  They were real and if it would help someone, I will share with you gladly.  If you feel it is a spirit prob, then it may very well be.  Don't discount your feelings in this matter.  http://www.erm.ee/?node=148


the building is commercial construction in which there is a room on top of a completely enclosed, non-ventilated foundation with significant hollow space underneath a concrete floor.  Can mold or other problems make their way through a concrete floor causing an odor or other problems?

Moisture retention will be the first problem...it's usually not heard of for mold to go all of the way through concrete, but it is possible.


Does anyone else on here agree with me that the level of MLS Soccer is quite a few steps down from the first divisions of other countries?  I mean, these guys don't seem like they are coached.  I just got done watching FC Dallas and Kansas City.  They make passes and shots that have no chance of producing anything.  They lack heart and won't get into any tackles....\n\nWhen I watch English Premier League games, I can barely stay seated I get so excited.  When I watch MLS games, I usually drift off and even switch to NBA Games!  As if the NBA is any better.  I would love to hear opinions.  I am American, played Div. 1 College Soccer and love the sport, but just think our style is not to show the beauty of the sport but rather play not to lose and make the least mistakes.  Anyone who doesn't watch much, watch some MLS games in the next couple weeks, then watch the World Cup this summer.  It's so much more exciting (on top of the fact that they are much better players, it's the style).

Of course the other first division leagues are better.  Those teams have been around for a hundred years.  The MLS is only 10 years old.  Give it time before you start trying to compare it to the EPL.  It may not be as pretty as the games from other countries, but it is still soccer and still great to watch.  It is also helping move the game along and make the US a more competitive national team. No complaints about it here.


I don't want to scare himoff.come on people help i'm going crazy!!!!!lol

Maybe he likes that about you! Maybe that's what attracted him towards you.


Do you mean 6x^2-3x-4?\n\nIf you do, we know that there are 3 ways of solving quadratics: factoring, completing the square, and quadratic formula. I would not recommend completing the square as it is long and involves tedious math word.\n\nAnother helpful hint: In standard form ax^2+bx+c=0, b^2-4ac is known as the discriminant. If it is negative, there are no solutions, and if it is not a perfect square, then you cannot factor.\n\nIn this quadratic, the discriminant would be (-3)^2-4(6)(-4) which equals 105. 105 is not a perfect square, so we cannot factor.\n\nQuadratic Formula: \n           -b +/-  sqrt (b^2-4ac)\nx= -------------------------------\n                2a\n\nsubstitute for a, b, and c


As the people bowed and prayed,\nto the silicon god they made?

The line from the Simon and Garfunkle song is "neon" God.  I take it you're updating it?  But what's your question?  "sound of silence" is something of an oxymoron, a poetic conundrum, a contradiction that resonates with the social tensions of the time, of all times, the mental and spiritual agony of a world seemingly gone mad, a world that drives YOU mad, drives you to the place where "no one can hear you scream."  \n\nWe all have to come to terms with that kind of loneliness.  We learn to live with it, or we die of it, and we have to choose which.


does azureus or other bittorent clients download/work while the computer is turned off.\n\nDo you have to launch it for it to continue uploading torrents

No they do not work while your computer is turned off and yes you do have to launch it to continue uploading torrents but it can be minimized to the system tray


i have a report due tomorrow and have no clew what to look for I even tried looking at their website

Accomplishments?\n\nWell, you have your work cut out for you. Good Luck.


I need her help. She can contact me at 229-386-2808

I would first start with a Trisha Yearwood website, then join her fan club and start from there. Her fan club should allow you to email her.


i only want to here from those who SHARE my opinion and what there reasoning is.........caution this question and it's answers may be unsutable for all liberals alike and could cause phsycological nudity for some...... no im not races and i believe in imigration thats fine all by it's self but i am opposed to Illegal people thinking it's ok to come uninvited....sorry  besides look what the ancient chineese did with there great wall, long ago yes, but never the less we still face the same problems..

Well, I think the Native Americans should have had the same policy, and kept your ancestors' genocidal butts out of that land, but too late now.\n\nAnd if AMERICANS would clean their own toilets and pick their own strawberries, there would be no reason for immigrants.  They can survive because AMERICANS give them illegal jobs, so blame THOSE guys, NOT people trying for a better life.\n\nAs for the languages: How many do YOU speak, eh?  I speak 5 and have partied on 6 continents.  You, on the other hand, are too stupid to learn and INSIST like a spoiled 3-year-old that everyone learn YOUR language so you don't have to leave your comfort zone.\n\nJUST IN CASE you care, there is NO offical language in the United States, so English is simply a tradition, NOT A LAW.


my gfs ex i hate him more then anyone ever for what he did to her he is 6ft 5 250lbs me 5ft8 160lbs he may be bigger but when i get mad its like something snaps i set up a board with his name on it i broke it in half i cant wait to meet him because we have not seen each other if he keeps bugging her i will lose it i say he better not write checks with his mouth which his ass cant cash

Now who would have thought that the same person who says all of these wonderful things could be so mean on the other end. Calm down you've got the girl, which means you've already won. So why waste the time that could be spent with her instead. Blow him off and your her man get her number changed. Move her in with you. Figure out ways to work this out like a real man with a new family would do. Good Luck on your decision.


Which is okay. We don't know exactly. But that number is very large.


Can some one plz help me find the anserw because i so far can't find the answer to that.

the large ones eat meat..like pieces of raw chicken and beef...the smaller ones just eat bugs the fly by and land on it

A day without Americans.  We are being asked to stay home and not spend money on the 17th to protest against the recent events of ILLEGAL immigrants protesting in the streets of America.  I plan on participating.  Just wondering who else is going to??

The Hydrogen atom is a donor/acceptor for the electron, it's kinda like a battery, or a hydroelectric energy plant. Imagine the electron is water it wants to get somewhere, and it turns a wheel (ATP Snythase) to create ATP to get there. That is a "big picture" the details you'll have to look up.


When did you have them out and did it hurt how old were you? I am getting mine out thursday and I am 20 years old and they said it will hurt bad! Will it hurt help me not be nervous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nThanks Tasha

I had mine out 5 years ago when I was 16.  It didn't hurt because they gave me liquid codeine and I was taking that every 4 hours or maybe it was 6...anyway that worked really well.  I even had to go to the emergency room that night because my throat was bleeding into my stomach and I was puking up a lot of blood so they had to go in with some silver nitrate to close up the spots that were bleeding.  With the pain medicine I had the puking didn't even hurt so I'm sure you'll be fine. :)\n\nOh and I didn't eat ice cream at all...Jello and popsicles are where it's at...when I tried to eat ice cream it burned my throat and for whatever reason made me a bit sick to my stomach...could have been the pain medicine though


can i put a 256mb ati graphics card in an presario s4020wm which has an integrated 32mb video card?

From looking at the specs on your computer, you definitely want to boost your RAM before you get a new video card.  But, the card should work since 8X AGP is backwards compatable with 4X.  Here's your computer's specs:\n\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=us&dest_page=product&product=326832&dlc=en&docname=c00021854#


I am also looking for a e-mail list that doesn't cost a arm and a leg. I signed up for this company a couple of months ago,no sales yet.\n\nhttp://www.watkinsonline.com/smarks

It is not that easy to do business on the Web, as you are now learning. In fact, creating a website is the easiest part - to get visitors to your website and to get them to buy your products is a whole different ballgame.\n\nWith the bizopp you signed up with, you have to remember that you are not the only one with the same pre-set website. All Watkins affiliates have the same website; and you are competing with the main Watkins website which has almost the same look as the website of affiliates like you. I am not sure whether Watkins allow affiliates to reconfigure the pre-set templates; but given your current website your chances for getting traffic from search engines organically (natural rankings as opposed to pay per click) is very low.\n\nYour main chance is to advertise your website. And it can be expensive, whether buying pay per click through Adwords or buying links from other websites.\n\nHowever, buying email lists is not advisable. Whatever these email vendors tell you, the fact that the people in the lists they are selling have not explicitly agreed to receive email from you means you will be spamming them. Authorities are increasingly tightening up on spammers, and I don't think you'd want to tangle with that.


actually i have a very old version of windows98 the pictures are not clear

Click on Start > Windows Update\n\nWait til next year and convert to Windows Vista - the new OS


Does anybody know how to spell or put a sentence together anymore?

Yes i have lost faith in the American education system by reading some of these questions. When i went to school during the mid 70s Thur the 80s they taught you how to spell and proper grammar.I do not know how some of these young kids make it through college, because they must write reports with proper spelling and grammar. Sigh, they are going to be our future leaders.


Indians dont love their country as Americans? Are Indians are self centered?

No! They just find life better in the US and in Europe. Most Indians who come to the US and Europe come as doctors and other high valued jobs. Since most Indians who come to the US or Europe are really smart and good at what they do, they find jobs very easily.


Whats your opinion on Maryland winning the NCAA Title?

It's hard to know what to think, because I barely got to watch any basketball this year, and unfortunately I only caught the OT of the final. That said, it was very good, especially since the previous scoreline I saw had Duke ahead by a lot. \n\nMe? I'm a UConn fan because my cousin went there (field hockey) for a short time. Also their women's soccer is good, and I like that sport.


My father, grandfather and uncles have passed away, and I have no brothers.  My fiance and I have a young son but the concept of "giving his mom away?"...not something I want my son to do

Maybe instead of calling it "giving you away" you could say that he's escorting you into the family.\n\nI don't see a problem with it.


I like to shop at Target for three reasons. First, the employees are friendly and helpful to assist you in any ways they need to assist you. Second, the store is organized and clean and you are checked out within 15 minutes of being done shopping. Finally, they have a good parking lot and it is easy to get in and out of Target.

i LOVE shopping at target!  everything there is so cute and its SO inexpensive.  yeah, sometimes i like to go splurge a little but when i need something and i dont want to spend a lot of money on it target is where i go!  its WAY better than walmart and they still have everything you need from clothes to groceries to electronics.


The case practically said that in a juvenile court the juvenile was to be denied the right to a jury trial!! what i don't understand is, why is this so?? if adult trials have a jury trial y not juveniles??? i am confused!

Because juvenile court is a closed proceeding to protect the juvenile under the supposedly secret juvenile records being closed and none viewable to the public. A opening courtroom with other then lawyer judge and witnesses and parents or anybody pertaining to the case is violation of the juvenile privacy law. So if you bring 12 bipartisan in it would be violation of privacy.\n\nUnless you are being trialed as an adult. Then it's ok.

I am trying to build up some muscle in my arms. i want them to look muscular but not over the top. please help!

As all the other answers suggest, you obviously need to do some form of weight or resistance training to challenge your muscles.\n\nYour triceps make up about 2/3 of your arm size so concentrate on developing them as much if not more than your biceps.  There is also a muscle underneath the biceps called brachialis and it can really add thickness to your arms if you train them properly (usually best with hammer curls).  \n\nHere's a list of Strength Conditioning Exercises for the arms to get you started but please seek the advice of a personal trainer on technique and execution before you get started:\n\nBiceps\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_biceps.html\n\nTriceps\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_triceps.html\n\nForearms\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_forearms.html


when i get around my bf it is just so hard for me to talk to hima nd i dont know why, what should i do?

You should really try. I mean, you both are together now. You shouldn't be afraid. Love each other, don't aviod one another.


I like to have a drink occasionally, and sometimes i get tipsy, but i dont act like an idiot or anything like that. Im just more happy and friendly. But i'd like an honest opinion  on what they think about a chick who drinks? My friend says that guys generally wont date a girl who likes a drink. I can't believe this to be true...

Funny, that's how I drink and most of the men I meet don't have a problem with it.  If you're comfortable with who you are and what you're doing, guys will notice that and the good ones won't care that you drink.  Just that you don't hurt yourself.  Good luck!

some people say that marketing techniques create false image about products and companies. how would you answer that?\n\nplease explain!thx a lot..

Wow - how negative those answers are.  OK - here's the real answer:\n\nWhile bad marketing techniques do create a false image, good technique portrays the benefits of the product or service being sold.  There's no need to mislead a buyer when you have something they want to buy.  \n\nIntelligent marketing will identify those customers that want your product, and then introduce it to them.  That's why good marketing works, and bad marketing always fails.\n\nBad marketing sells a product or service by tricking someone into buying it - and they only get fooled once.  There's rarely a repeat sale.\n\nGood marketing makes the initial sale, and then the customer comes back again, and again, while the marketing effort is bringing in more new sales.  It becomes self fullfilling.\n\nThis is why ads that tell the truth always produce more sales, and why the ones that promise the earth soon disappear as the company goes down the pan!\n\nI hope this helps.

Imagine those who never had access or any info about your religión existence. What in your believe is their ending?

Acts 24:15 and I have hope toward God, which hope these [men] themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. \n\nGod will Judge those according to their deeds. God knows full well that there will be those who will die not knowing the truth. That is why there will be a resurrection of everyone.\n\nIf you want to know what the bible really teaches, have your bible ready and visit http://watchtower.org , or you can contact me.

I was just wondering, is Clinton Kelly Gay, How old is stacy, is she married, does she have k9ids, what is Carmindy's last name?

I'm not sure he is gay.  Of course, he appears to be, but he has made references to a "wife" and a "kid."  He references his child quite often, but perhaps this is an adopted or surrogate-mother child and he is gay.  Or perhaps bi.  Oh the mysteries of life!\n\nStacey is not married ("She resides in Brooklyn with her two fabulously fashionable cats, Moo and Al, and many, many pairs of stilettos").  Stacy was born on May 25, 1969.\n\nCarmindy's last name is Bowyer.\n\nI'm glad to see a fellow "What Not To Wear" enthusiast.  Keep up the good work!


Your Opinion, Please?\n\nCause this really gets me to the core!

I think people miss the point of that.  Why do people hold the U.S. to a different standard than other countries.  EVERY country has an official language, and they all have people from other nationalities living to them.  If EVERY country tried to cater to EVERY language spoken in it, no one would get anything done ever.  Just because English is the national language of the U.S. does not mean that the U.S. is somehow slapping other languages in the face.  If you want to live here, work here, and thrive here...learn the language.  That does not mean that there is anything wrong with other languages or that we as U.S. citizens should not learn other languages, we should.  However, just like any other country we do have a national language and people should learn it to function here.  That is no different than if I went to Germany, Russia, Cuba, Japan...those countries businesses and schools will not cater to me...its in my best interest if I want to succeed in their country, to learn their language.  That is true of the U.S. also.  So, yes,it bothers me to with the press one or two thing....learn the language...but don't come here to BE an American and then DEMAND that everyone else here conform to your language so that you can function.  If you choose to operate here, then learn how we operate and do it.  I would have to do it in another country, so anyone who comes here should have to do it here.


will the judge put them back on probation


We get along fine on email and text and then it suddenly dies down before we meet. Does anyone out there have the same experience?

Yes I have  the same experience ...understand everything happens for a reason..ever thing, nothing happens by mistake...if it was meant to be ...then you would still be communicating with them...but just know obviously they aren't the one so don't give up your soul mate is out there...and he will find you...keep hope alive


my neighbor says my privacy fence, which is not on the property line,  is constructed of the wrong material and is suing me to take it down -- they spy on us constantly and we need privacy\nwhat is the cheapest way for me to defend my rights to privacy, I have a pool, since other neighbors have such fences\ncan I do this without a lawyer?  I'm pretty strapped financially... what do I file first in response?

Look in your yellow pages for an attorney that offers a free "consultation" visit.  Get as much info during that visit as you can to help you decide if you can fight this without having an attorney.\n\nAlso, check to see if you can file a countersuit against this neighbor...might put an end to everything.  You might be able to file harassment charges.\n\nI am not an attorney, just making some suggestions in case no one responds with any help at all.  A free consultation might be your best course of action.\n\nGood luck!

Last month, a world-wide survey was conducted by the UN.\n\nThe only question asked was... : \n"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"\n\nThe survey was a huge failure because...:\nIn Africa they didn't know what " food " means.\nIn Eastern Europe they didn't know what " honest " means.\nIn Western Europe they didn't know what " shortage " means.\nIn China they didn't know what " opinion " means.\nIn the Middle East they didn't know what " solution" means.\nIn South America they didn't know what " please " means.\nIn the USA they didn't know what " the rest of the world " means.

I am starting a business and need to know if the name has been already taken.

Search your state website, then federal trademarks or trade names; check with local BBC and Chamber of Commerce; State Comptroller site, etc. Start search at local and state level, then search nationally. Use several  search engines as some will find different sites. Good luck.


i am currently using the ab loung any one had results with that?

To get a flat stomach you need to watch your eating, and do the exercise. The key however is exercising your core when you do your regular exercise routine. Do cycling, rowing, etc, exercises that burn calories as well as work your core. Its like a double hit. If you just keep killing the abs you will never get there. Tie your ab workout in with your usual workout by finding ways to work your core.

I would like intentional walks to be prohibited from the sport of baseball!

definately the intentional walks, it is cheap and takes the bat away from the hitter basically. im not saying it should entirely be done with because pitcher can still walk their batter by pitching outside the strike zone, but they need to regulate how many intentional walks are allowed. ive always wanted this type of rule where you are only allowed to intentionally walk a each batter once in a game. this is especially a good idea because of barry bonds and albert pujols type of players.


I live in Australian and my older half-brother is all for AC Milan. I'd like to jump on the band wagon coz I like football too. My favourite player is Alessandro Nesta. Does anybody know a site that will keep me up-to-date with the match results? Maybe even live coverage? Or delayed?

I always go to www.livescore.com for up to date result for live soccer. It will update per 2 minutes for all live soccer all over the world (in soccernet from ESPN.com they give you options to update every 45 secs but it sucks, the minutes are not up to date at all!!) But, if you want to keep update with MILAN past result, then you can choose to visit www.acmilan.com or www.espn.com (then choose soccer section)

I need Media details during the 20th Century

Media was state controlled under communism, with TASS being the government news agency. It still exists, but there are a few, budding news organizations now. Izvetia is a popular newspaper. TV news continues to be heavily controlled by the government, and Russia has a terrible record of oppressing journalists, jailing media executives, etc.


The Healthcare Facility I work at is implementing a smoke free place as of July 1st, One employee was told by an attorney that they cannot stop you from smoking in you vehicle, it is considered private property no matter where it is parked. My thought, if they want the payment book and insurance premiums then they can dictate the use of my private property.  I don't think they have a legal right to tell you that you cannot use your own vehicle as a "butt hut". Anyone have the "Legal answer?

Are you sure that you are accurately reporting the information the attorney gave to you?  If your vehicle is parked on the private property of your employer, the laws of your state may very well give them the right to enforce this policy.\n\nRegardless of what you feel about the policy, chances are that you are an "at will" employ unless you belong to a union.  I am not aware of any state or federal law that would protect you if your employer fired you for violating the policy.  So you have two choices:  (1) stop smoking; or (2) go off the property to smoke.


Ive been playing guitar for around 4 years and fixing/building them for around 2 and Im absolutely obsessed with building guitars but Im not sure if theres any money in that, at least enough to make a career out of it. I know I will be doing it till I die as just a hobby, but I cant see myself doing anything else. What Im wondering is if theres any money in building/fixing guitars. Thanks in advance!

A good idea is to have a local guitar shop, for guitar repairs and guitar building etc. I think it would be a good start.  You can go to Fender, Ibanez, Gibson etc. website and see if they have any job openings for making guitars.


I've had this fungi condition on my skin for a long time ....like a few years now and now it seems to be going away...i've seen 2 dermotologist and the second one gave me this anti-biotic that seemed to clear my back and my chest but it came back on my chest...i've tried garlic extract and still taking that and that is working a lot but its still there....its not as rough but its still there .....please help!!!

This sounds like Tinea Versicolor. It is a fungal infection, typically on the torso, with a reputation for recurrence. Usually there are lightened or darkened spots on the skin where the fungus is - this depends on your skin tone. There are oral treatments, which are usually easier, but do have potentially significant side effects. It wouldn't hurt to try selinium sulfide shampoo (Selsun Blue) daily for 2 weeks - leave on the skin for ~10 min before washing off. This is another effective, yet more difficult treatment, that does not require a visit to the physician. Regular use of the shampoo may help to prevent recurrence. I would of course recommend that you seek Dermatology advice from a physician if it continues to bother you.


My parents had gone out for a few days and i called up my friends for a movie at home.By evening everyone left except for my boyfriend.We chatted for a while and then he thought of the inevitable.I too complied.However, while we were making out in the kitchen my folks turned up.Though i was nearly dressed up they saw him fondling my breasts.\nEmbarresed , they left for their rooms and my friend after apologising left for his home.I felt very ashamed.My mom scolded me a bit but probably understood but my father has stopped talking to me since.It has been a week.What shall i do now?

You need to have both you and your bf apologise to your dad. Sometimes when a parent sees something like that it can hit them pretty hard. Not because they frown upon what you did but because they realize that you are growing up and experiencing grown up things. Your dad probably just didn't know how to react and still doesn't. You need to let him know that you understand that what happened shouldn't have happened and that your sorry. The sooner you do this the better. In his mind he's still trying to figure out what happened and why. More time only makes it worse...


This could be the first steps to another world war.

Iran has only managed to refine a very small amount of material for a bomb.  The experts say they do not have anywhere enough to create a bomb yet.  If the UN and the USA are smart they will never give Iran the time to finish.


In 1990 I was arrested in US and sent back to India along with my little son and wife-as student I overstayed. Can I apply for amnesty in the proposed new Immigration Law? Pl. help me.I know the law is not passed. just a curiosity.

I seriously doubt it! lol, I think if it would only be for those who weren't caught and have a certain length of time working and living here in the u.s. I think the amnesty part may be for the parents of "anchor" babies. (children of illegal immigrant parents). I think the rest will prob. only get a temporary work permit for like 3 years or something, and then they will have to reapply for it again. It's pretty much up in the air as to IF it will be passed. President Bush said that the 'undocumented' workers will have to get to the back of the line when it comes to the immigration process. It'll prob. be YEARS before you could become a  resident much less a citizen. It's not going to be as easy as it sounds.


Because our country is currently run by Republicans, who historically could care less about the plight of the poor and helpless.  The mindset is: "If I can be wealthy without government handouts, then everyone else can too."  They can't see that the American dream does NOT exist for a lot of people, especially minorities, and that some people have many more obstacles than White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.  It's really sad.  Hopefully we can get some Democrats in office who can help provide good legislation to help the poor and suffering.


1. Tommy is successful and receives no $ from parents (great relationship) but sis who is not as successful gets $ whenever.\n\n2. Friend has parents tell her what car to get and makes her do payments/insurance but sibling gets any car and does not have to make payments. Parents do..\n\n3. Another friend has a house/mortgage but parents expect her to help out and pay rent for an addicted brother.\n\nWhy is it the more successful one sibling is they are expected to help out less fortunate siblings. Why do parents continue to help out and reward underachieving sibilings while sucessful siblings are left out and not offered the same. Are we creating a society that awards underachievers and punishes the successful ones by not treating them the same because they are better off?

First of all, parents are people and therefore are no more perfect than people in general.  They can be just as illogical, unjust, and wacky as anyone else.\n\nAs far as why parents "expect" (maybe "wish" or "want" is better here) the more successful sibling to help the less successful siblings, I think it's primarily because of two things:  one is that the parents worry for their children and want to be reassured that they will manage after the parents die and the second thing is that parents would like to think that siblings will continue to have contact after they die.  True, handing money to the less successful sibling isn't much of a relationship, but sometimes even that seems more contact between them than a parent really thinks will take place without the parent there to be a link between the two.


i cant get over his paast its not a bad one but lately ive been depressed enough to not want to leave the house. how do i trust someone i feel like im going to be alone forever all my boyfriends say im crazy and to much work why am i so difficult?

Get yourself to the doctor & have him give you a blood hormone test & thyroid hormone test...imbalances & fluctuations in these can cause mild to severe mood swings & depression. Hormone problems are often easily fixed!


whenever I tell him about things thats happened at school hes always like "I don't care!" or "So!" I'm so worried and I don't want to lose him.

Sorry dear...but it seems you've already lost him...it sounds as if he has moved on with out you and he's waiting for you to just hit the road...\nDon't fall into the category of "girls that stick to *ssholes"...I'm sure you deserve alot better...if that is true then move on and get yourself another hottie!


As opposed to what it was meant to be. Are we as society in general using it for the right reasons?

Its just a communications backbone. What you "communicate" for your own purposes is good enough reason. \n\nThere are few wrong or illegal uses for it.


Just wondering what is average. We both work full-time have been married for almost 4 years. We have sex between 10-12 times a month which equals to about 3 times a week.

When I was married with one child and a Home Daycare (18hr a day with 32 children throughout the day, 3 employees) I kept my roles in order. First I was His wife;a mother and a Business woman.I kept making love to him on my mind throughout the day.So, when he get home I was always HOT for him.Sometime women put the mother thing first, that's not so. Keep your sex life on your mind and your mind on your Husband everything else will get in line.You're going to fill real good ,try it.


I have a lot of the symptoms plus family history. In a few hours, I'm going to see the health center at my college campus. I've seen cousins grow up with Type I but I'm still scared. I know stress doesn't help glucose levels so how can I calm down?

Take a few deep breaths and try to disengage yourself from the situation... in other words, find something to keep you busy and make you think about something else. \n\nIt may not be for everyone, but prayer is a great comfort and stress relief strategy. That's a personal decision though so that's all I will say about that. \n\nLook at it this way though... there are alot worse things that a doctor could tell you than that you are diabetic. I know it's bad enough in itself, but diabetes does not have to be a death sentence. The initial diagnosis is very scary and intimidating, but it's a very controllable condition and you can live a long, healthy, happy, and productive life with it. \n\nBeing diabetic doesn't mean that you are terminally ill. What it does mean is that you now have to make some healthier decisions and probably have to take some sort of medication. I am personally a Type 2 diabetic (I'm 24 years old) and it has changed my life, but I do not let it control my life. I still do all the things that I did before, but have made some health-conscious decisions within my lifestyle. I exercise, take medications, and watch what I eat... which are things that I should have been doing long before I got diagnosed. \n\nIf you are diagnosed, remember to keep a positive outlook. Diabetes will only control you if you let it. \n\nGood luck and best wishes... \n\nPost again and let us know what happens with your results.


i met this GREAT guy!!!! he and I clicked instantly, and now we have decided to be in a relationship.I have been in long distance relationships before,but never with this great of a distance seperating us! I am definantly going to give this relationship a try, I just want to see what other people think about this!

It will never work.He is porking someone local at the moment and I think you know it.


people at school jus dont like me because i syupposedly tell others business n i never even talk to them n when i do i dont say much

My friend, it is all in a mind set.  Why not just smile to them and laugh inside because you have the ability to understand why they did it. They see something in you that they do not have and thus they are trying to bring you down to their level. DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN!\n\nIf you know such is not true, you know they are the ones with the problem and not you. Do rejoice in that and let that thought put you in the position that you really do feel sorry for them because they can not even see their failure. However you can see it clearly.\n\nLook to the simple things. An ant will always come if it finds food, but if no food is found it will stop coming. If you just smile and ignore these people, eventually they will first quit because you do not react. Next they may want to be your friend to learn your secret. Then at that time you will be in control because you will now be their teacher ha ha.\n\nSee my friend there is magic in patience and much can be gained in a little wisdom. So take care, smile a lot, even laugh but in good taste and enjoy life. You only have now to do it so enjoy it now. So have a great day OK.


I work an odd shift for the military, without organized workouts. I work from 6am to 6pm two days in a row, then from 6pm to 6am the next two days. I then have 96 hours off (4 days.) That's not including being required to leave for work half an hour early or my trips that sometimes get me home after 8am/pm. With this schedule I can manage to get 3 days at a gym but generally only get 2 if any. I don't get lunch breaks and have no holidays. I want to start working out more, but I tend to lack the energy before or after a workday. What can I do to recover the energy I need to be able to go workout?

With a schedule like that, I'd be exhausted, too.  Anyone would!  First, keep an eye on your diet and rest.  Make sure you're fueling up with as much good calories as possible, and enough of them.  Too little and you'll constantly be down.  Try to grab healthy snacks during the day, whatever your situation allows, be it leftovers, something you prepare (yogurts, fruits, nuts, lean meat), or a prepared energy bar.  Try to fuel up every 2.5 - 3 hours to keep energy in your tank.  Also, get enough rest.  12 hour shifts can be brutal without adequate rest.  After diet and rest, I'd work in whatever exercise the schedule allows that is practical.  If that's 2 days per week, so be it.  If you find you can do 3 days, great.  Given your limited time to workout, if you're doing weights, I'd suggest full-body workouts whenever you're in the gym.  And limit your time to 45 - 60 minutes.  After 60 minutes, we've pretty much tapped our energy and maintaining the proper intensity for longer than that is pretty difficult.\n\nDon't stress about the workouts too much.  Deal with what you have to focus on first (life, career, general health).


The problem comes from the definition of "Rude", rude simply means going against the normal social etiquette you're used to, so one man's rude is another man's polite.\n\nI'm english, we're big on etiquette, this is what a conversation might look like when I'm paying for my groceries:\n\n"That'll be five pounds please."\n"Thanks, here you are"\n"Thank you, here's you're change"\n"Thanks"\n\nSee, we just put the word "Thank you" everywhere, even when I'm giving *them* something I say it. Does that mean anyone who had that conversation and didn't say thank you enough (or at all) is rude? Well, to an English person maybe, but if you were to have that conversation in Finland, they'd think you were on drugs. In Finland you only say Thank You, if you really actually mean it (i.e. You'd say thank you if someone gave you a gift, but not if someone passed you the salt at dinner)\n\nIt get's worse, in England (and the States) it's polite to say "How are you?" or something when you meet someone. I now live in Holland and many Dutch people find that rude, since when we don't ask the question because we care, but because we're just being polite, making the question a lie.\n\nThe Dutch are big on "Honesty" to the degree where many English people find them hopelessly rude. I've had situations where I've asked for something in a shop and the person's just glared at me, slapped whatever it is down on the counter, muttered the price and gone back to generally glaring and looking angry at everything around them. It's not that they're meaning to be rude, they're just having a bad day and they don't see any reason to hide it.\n\nI don't find Americans that rude, they tend to say Please and Thank You, and they tend to make a show of looking pleased to see you when they meet you.


My Future Husband wants to spank the Children...Im against spanking. It says in the bible that your child will be spoiled if you don't spank him/her. In different terms of course, but the general meaning. Now, I was VERY abused as a child, I never ever wanted to even spank my kids at all. I know there is spanking, and there is beating...but at the same time, I don't want any physical violence of any sort in my home, and I wouldn't want my chilren going to school and hitting other children because its "Ok for mommy and daddy to spank me" Now, the person I want to spend the rest of my life with (we aren't married, we are still courting but I already know) Anyways, he feels that a child should be spanked. Some veiws or bible back ups?

Children need to be raised in a loving environment - one that also includes discipline.  Lack of discipline and consequence will leave your children confused and lacking skills as they grow.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with spanking a child to reinforce punishment, when they are young.  \n\nDiscipline is not violence.

lung cancer has spread to the brain and it is now on the frontal lobe

I'm so sorry but there is no definitive answer.  It depends on so many things:  type of cancer (some types spread faster than others...and I am not referring to lung, bone, etc cancer...I mean specific type), whether or not treatment is being done, the person's desire to live (many live much longer than they should due to fighting hard and their belief in a higher power), etc.\n\nAll you can do is make each day count...live each day to the fullest and enjoy it wholeheartedly.  I'm so sorry.

Man has disintegrated himself from the universal brotherhood by choosing wrong creteria to believe in God by either following his own desires, his forefathers traditions or out of ignorance, pride and arrogance which has led him into clouds of darkness and has taken him away from the truth, his Lord who is his creator because of the Free Will gifted to man which he is exploiting and wronging his own soul believing that he is going to escape from the grounds of accoutability for his deeds and actions. In the present chaos, confusions it is a very serious issue for each soul to know the truth he will have to face the consequences, thus it is important for him to know which is the right path which leads to his Creator and who is his real enemy. HE SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT CRITERIA TO JUDGE BETWEEN THE RIGHT & WRONG BETWEEN THE TRUE GOD AND FALSE GOD.

Its all about what feel right for YOU, no anybody else, just you.

The Chorus was somthing along the lines of "Keep the Big Ball Turnin" basically that love kept the world spining. If I remember correctly. I'd love to have the name of the artist/and or the song title. Any ideas, or points in a helpful direction would be great! I'm guessing there's a forum/message board out there where I could post this question, but I have no idea if it exhists.\n\n\nIt was featured prominently on KLTY here in the Dallas/Fort Worth market. But KLTY is also the nations largest/most popular Christian radio station, so I'm sure if the song got air time here, then it did on other Christian radio stations across the country.\n\nAgain this was very late 80's possibly, but I really think it was early 90's. \n\nThanks for your help and time in advance!

just type in the chorus on any search page, theyll bring up plenty of musical lyrics pages and theyll actually take you to the page ur looking for

a lot of others have had the same problem lately using yahoo mail. yahoo will fix it when you figure it out. who knows when that will be.


You know, the pouty girls on myspace and everywhere that are trying to be all seductive? They're ho's. Who agrees? I saw little girls from my hometown posing with their asses in the air and it made me ill. Also who thinks I should smack these girls a good one when I see them and print out those pictures and show their parents? It makes me ashamed to be a girl and ashamed to be from where I'm from. I'm sick of all this misrepresentation due to these hookers.

I definitely agree with you. I am so tired of seeing crap like that all over the Internet. Do these girls realize what they are doing? No guy is going on MySpace and looking at some teen girls half naked pic and thinking "Wow she seems like a very interesting person." No, they're looking at her like she is a piece of meat. What does that do for the rest of us women? I can't even go into a yahoo chat room without some freak asking me if I want to cyber or if I have any nude pics. You should print those pictures and show their parents. I would love to know what happened afterward!


ok my ex-girl and i have been talkin on the internet and i been saving all the instant messages and i made up i new one and ..i caught her sayin that she doesnt want me in tha baby's life and she admits to not havin a job and all that good stuff so ...im workin and she doesnt have a stable place...to live..so could i fight thiz in court..and whut r my odds of wining

Well, you need to talk to an attorney on a consultation and tell him what's up.  Usually consultations are free.\n  Second, today, may states and courts will give joint custody to parents...at the very least.  This is common and what it means is joint physical custody being that you hav ethe child for two weeks, then she has the child for two weeks, or she has the child all day, and when you get off work, you pick up the child and keep her till school and drop her off.  With joint custody, this is where you are to make decisions in the child's medical, school and so forth decisions.\n  In this generation, as long as you can prove you are the child's biological father, the court will grant you visitation at the very least.\n  Usually, if your name is not on the birth certificate, they will order a paternity blood test.\n   She can not keep the child from you and at the very least you should have an attorney petition the court for this visitation immediately.\n   To win custody/ physical custody, where she would have only visitation you would need to prove you are stable, have a good living environment for the child, child care that is sufficient to the child's needs and a good job where you can show you can support your child and yourself.\n   I mean, you are the father, you will be or should be paying some support for the child now, but to have full custody is just a bit different as you need to show stability.  \n   Hopefully you have no criminal record, speeding, and stuff like that, because this could go to character and lets face it , it you get lots of speeding tickets, well I wouldn't want my child in your car.\n   As for the mother, as long as she is taking care of the child and the child isn't harmed, starved, and so forth, it's kind of hard proving up sole custody.  I think go for setting up a fixed visitation, with a fixed support order while requesting joint physical custody.  \n   YOu must love the child very much...and I commend you for wanting to take on the responsibility.  don't let the child be used as it sounds likewhat your ex is doing.  Love her and show the court you love her and can care for her and go for it.  The very least you'll get is visitation........but that's a start.\n   Hopefully what ever money you have given for the child's support is verifyable.  In other words, do not give cash to the ex for the child's support and needs, always give in a check or money order so you can prove up what you have done, at all times..................\nHope this helped, go get an attorney to file and OSC for sole legal and sole physical custody and/or visitation..........good luck


If you are the victim?\n\nWhat if the victim is a loved one?

Dealing with a life threatening cancer is certainly a life changing event for the family (along with the obvious for the one who is afflicted). Watching my father die this year (even though for much of it i was away at school) has been the most difficult thing ive had to deal with in my life. Seeing someone that you love and respect so much slowly go from an active person, to a sedentary person, to a dying person is a difficult transformation to witness. There is always some form of bad news as the cancer slowly defeats some of the different methods that are used at times to treat the illness. You tend to experience every emotion in small bits. First theres a lot of fear and denial, because although there are so many different forms of cancer, and so many people get the disease, its never going to happen to us, we thought. Then theres anger and despair, and just an incredible sense of loss as you realize some of the things that will hopefully happen someday in my life that he cant be there for.\n\nYet you begin to realize that you are not alone, and that life really is a precious thing. I became so much more thankful for the 19 years i got with my dad (sadly a lot of this was after he passed, as it was too tough for me to be around him while he was in his final weeks). Although you have to deal with the slow dying process, you get to spend so much more time with them, than if death had come quickly from an acute illness. You begin to value the things which you take for granted from before. The difficulties never go away during the process, but every little bit that Dad fought, along with the good moments made life worthwhile. \n\nonce i made peace with the idea that he would die, there was a pretty horrible sense of waiting, because you know eventually it will come (if its terminal). But you realize that you have time, and that is a beautiful thing. Ironically, ive learned to love who my dad was more since he has gone than while i was an ungrateful teen (or maybe i just didnt realize how i loved the man).\n\nFortunatly all cancer is not fatal, and there is a lot of hope for a cure. Im now a better person for the difficult process, and ive learned to have empathy for my fellow man and woman. I love my dad, and the fact that he is gone doesnt take away from the wonderful 19 years i got with him.


I am sick or being a man. I hate shaving. \nSo anyways, I think it is time for a change.\nWould taking my wifes birthcontrol pills speed up the process. Suggestions. I would love to do this at home if it is prohibitively expensive I want to hire a pro.

Sure you can do it! Pop over to the local Veterinarian supply, and pick up some horse tranquilizer, good tin snips, some duct tape,alcohol, (3 rolls, at least!), some Cheez Nips, and a case of Coke and a bottle of Jack.\nStep by step:\n1.Have wifey duct tape you to the dining room table.\nInject tranquilizer, and cleanse area with alcohol.\nWifey takes a swig of Jack. Chase it with a few sips of Coke.\n2.Using sterilized snips, cut off manly appendages. Dispose,(pets love these if you boil them a bit), and fold excess saque skin inward. Duct tape.\n3.If hubby wakes up, at this point, hit him on the head with bottle of Jack. Have 3 more swigs of Jack, one of Coke. Proceed.\n4.Pour liberal amounts of alcohol on freshly made Hoo-Hoo, (formerly known as mr.smartypants), more swigs of Jack. More alcohol. Using a hair dryer, aim at area and dry off.(towels would be excruciating at this point).\n5.Move groggy patient (victim?) into bed, fall into bed next to him/her with 1/4 bottle of Jack clutched tightly in your hands. If patient awakens during the night, give him/her the rest of Jack.\n6.Next day, clean up surgical area,(bloody, duct taped table mess). Pop over to the liquor store for a case of Jack.\n7. Continue to keep patient ansethetized with Jack for 3 to 4 days, until incisions have time to close in, forming a slitted appearance.\n8. By next weekend, you girls should be out shopping for your new wardrobe, and sipping Manhattens at the local pub!\nCAUTION: Do not take your wifey's pills, this will only make your boobs enlarged, and do nothing for the south end.\nP.S. Note bottle of Jack in piccy of me, Dr. Zaius.


If you do i wan't to know more about him..im his best friend but theres probally things that are real funny that i don't know

Sorry Rick. But that monkey-guy has been removed. It was for a bad reason too.


Christ tells Mary at the tomb "don't touch (cling to) me for I have not been glorified (ascended)."  He then walks through a wall and tells Thomas "feel my hands".  Why did he treat the two differently?  Was there a difference in their motives that caused Him to repsond this way?

Mary maybe didn't want to let Him go.  Or He didn't want to be kept at the tomb.  He needed to go so the Holy Spirit could come.  Thomas needed encouragement in his faith.  That is the only difference I see.

Much of Islam plagerizes Judiasm, many Muslims share semetic roots, yet in poll after poll, an amazing 90+ percent of Muslims hate jews, hate them all, not just "zionists". \n\nI dont get the obsession. You nasty people need to have more sex, and I dont mean with family members.

They are obsessed with Jews for the same reason why Christians were obsessed with Jews for 1800 years. Both religions are Jewish sects. They both were born out of Judaism. They yare just slight modification on the theme.\nThey want to cover up this connection. It is uncomfortable that somehow Jews got their holy book from “God” before them.\n\nAnother reason why they are obsessed is INFERIORITY COMPLEX. Jews while having 1000 times smaller population have contributed to culture and science hundreds times more than Muslims. Compared to Jews, Muslims are simply INFERIOR! It is not even a psychological “inferiority complex”, it plain and simple INFERIORITY!\n\nAnd to the Idiot who keeps calling you “racist” once again a reminder: Islam is an ideology, not a race!


i pulled my hammy 4 weeks ago, rested and this past sunday started playing some rugby and tweaked it again.  i am in the army so i cant rest it like i did.  i was on leave at the time.  how or what can i do to prevent this from happening again and how do i still do pt now without further tearing it up?\n\njerms

You ought to do your best to keep the swelling down so ice it after working it and take IBuprophen when you are not running/marching on it. (Usually a bad idea to take it during because then you won't be able to feel the pain that tells you when you are injuring it more.) You're gonna wanna get it checked out though, it can lead to other problems while you are trying to compensate for your hamstring. \nYouv'e gotta cut back as much as you can in order for it to heal. And always make sure you warm it up and THEN stretch it gently before actually using it. Do not do any sprints if you can help it and ease into whatever you do.


Mostly finished studying by now, got my FRCS.


Just curious, cuz i do.  even smoke in the shower

I think you are saying sex is not very interesting to you. If you have to smoke, why dont you wait until your thru? That would be a complete turn off to me.
